    Because like Shell said, some folks have PTSD from stylists that took 4+ inches when only 1-2 inches were to be trimmed. I've seen a lady silently crying after this happened. Her sister came to pick her up, saw her sister's tears & long hair gone & set it off in that salon after the stylist tried to convince them that she did the client a favor. It was a fly cut, but not what the client wanted.

    You can also pull the hair straight out like you're cutting layers to get hairs that don't come all the way down. This way you can still get all of the split ends without unnecessarily cutting healthy hair.

    Thank you for this. I’m a white woman and my hair is naturally very dry and frizzy. Everytime I go to a white salon they struggle with my hair. I use redkin products, Olaplex, and many others and still my hair is so dry. I don’t know how much and what product to use as I’m flat ironing my hair. I regularly leave a cream conditioner in my hair with a cap overnight wrapped in a towel. I’ve started purchasing products in the ethnic section as the white products just aren’t doing it. It’s very frustrating as I want silky bouncy shiny hair.

  • @N_Frazier
    @N_Frazier 6 місяців тому +4

    Question… why do stylist trim this way? It seems lazy bc hairs at the top of the head aren’t being trimmed / cut.
    PS I’m not referring to how much was taken off. That’s understandable when the client isn’t keeping up w/ regular trims but I trim mine every 3 mos & my ex-styles does this same bob nonsense. This is cutting hair into a style when the client requested a trim for the health of the hair. I’m not a bob wearer. It also eventually made the back of my hair significantly shorter than the top bc her only skill was to make it “look” even all around from the bottom. Not cool but hoping you can help answer this question.

      I haven't straightened my hair in YEARS but I've been natural my whole life. I always did a rollerset, followed by Marcel iron straightening. That combo kept my hair straighter much longer than electric flatirons. My press would last until whenever I decided to wash my hair.

      That's what I was thinking... There's a difference between cut and trim.... As I am a stylist I have to make sure I give them what's needed... If I see they need a trim that's what it's going to be....

      That's not true. I've had natural hair all my life and always air dry. I haven't used heat since 2004. I wash n go everyday. My hair is absolutely gorgeous and healthy. I wear my hair short now, but even when it was down my back I air dried.

      Exactly. Air drying on NATURAL HAIR sounds very NATURAL and non damaging to me. Black women have had long healthy hair with or without a blow dryer.

      @@lolOloveOlol21 I'm happy that sistas have taken an interest in natural hair, but there is so much misinformation out there. Ppl do way too much and make it so much harder than it really is. It doesn't take all that work or product. Air drying is always better.

      ⁠@@JG_SmileSOBrightYou are gonna argue with the science? Like it does straight up weakens the hair. Wet hair is hair at its weakest. To keep you hair it weakest state is not good! Especially for those with curly hair. Air drying a wash and go everyday isn’t even practical.

      ​@@shelltalkshairI didn't say rough :D And actually 80% of us 4c types have literally NO idea what good hair care is because it's so specific. That's why a majority of 4c women's hair is short - not because of genetics, but because of damage and breakage from improper care, maintenance, and styling.
      Section hair into 10-12 sections and work on each piece 1 at a time. Use lots of detangler with TONS of slip. Let the detangler soak for 20-30 minutes. I like a detangler with a little fat, tons of slip, and a bit of oil, but I'm sure yours will vary because you're pressing after.
      Start detangling with your fingers - I start by separating the sections into smaller individual sections first big, then literally, single strand by single strand (YUP).
      Then I go in with my fingers and pretend like it's a comb. I actually finger detangle every step of the way because it's effective and the least damaging - the wash phase, conditioning, phrase and detangling phase.
      Then untangle using a detangling brush (my favorite) or a wide tooth comb (I've seen you use it on looser type 4). Nothing else unless it's your fingers. Denman is the OG detangler brand and Unbrush is the new kid on the block.
      Wash out the detangler, and gently twist the section to keep it from tangling again.
      Lastly, you saying shorter hair will help her maintain her healthy hair better is like saying if you run a mile instead of a marathon, it will be easier.
      Teach that baby how to maintain, nourish, and grow out her beautiful hair.
      Also, why would you press it if you said it were dry? Dry hair is easily damaged, so her hair was was in a weak state and could've used a week or so of repair. I prepare my hair for heat like a week in advance but that's my scary self, not facts.
      Congrats of the successful channel and we ALL should keep learning.

    I am highly allergic to formaldehyde, so most commercial products I can not use. Consequently, I’m a natural gal for the first time in my life. I make my own shampoo (black soap diluted or soap nuts diluted) and conditioner (goats milk, aloe gel or Irish Sea Moss and aloe). My hair 4C, low porosity goes back to natural within hours and never really straightens. HELP
