Hey everyone! Don't forget to join my new hair group "Natural Hair Type 4" and become part of the new community!
facebook.com/groups/NaturalHairType4/
My request is pending...
At the risk of sounding like a creeper, I think that you are a gorgeous woman.
Hey I'm newly subscribed to your channel and I wanted to know if you tan
You look sooooooo much better with your fro.✊
PrincessLeah187 xx she does!!! 🔥😍😍😍
Thank you, love
I love your hair
I love it! Maybe a little bit strange to say, but I love the fact that you're mixed and don't have 3a/3b hair. We mixed girls can also have type 4 hair! Subscribed and excited to see your hair journey
Josephiene Feenstra I fe you lol. I also love it when I see such textures on mixed girls. It shows they carry the DNA lol.
Sooo true. I'm mixed and all five of us girls have different textures. Everyone's hair is pretty but totally different.
i agree~ it’s refreshing to break the stigma and see some variety 💓
It's like one person reminded that biracial doesn't have one look! Most of us have been programmed to think that biracial automatically mean light skin, light eyes, and loose curls. I was ashamed of myself being from the Caribbean where there are many biracial people, even in my own family, and yet I still had this mindset of what biracial should look like, silly me back in the day.
This is lovely to see. My sister and I are the ONLY non biracial kids in our age group in my family. Translation, this 4c hair and this Brown skin is quite out of place at Christmas parties lol. Biracial and Brown beauty comes in all colors and textures. We are all beauties and part of what makes us so amazing is how unique black beauty is!! I literally just showed my huband your video and we were both like I love her hair!!! Any more natural hair videos because our hair is the same texture. I'd definately follow. You made me miss my twa. Rock that natural and kept being awesome
Lots of mixed folks have 4c hair. People forget about Lenny Kravitz! Rock it out!
Pretty Lady! Are you like a model or what? You look right off a Vogue Magazine Cover!
Kay Shaun Haha no, I wish! Thank you
No she don’t
She is just jealous. Jealousy don't look cute. In fact, it makes you look quite beastly.
You sound so ugly and bitter. She's beautiful, learn to embrace others' beauty as well as your own. But start with working on those hideous insides you have first.
September’s Life you ugly and you ain’t got no subscribers
another mixed girl with 4c hair! Instantly subbed.
Sunshine She got robbed out of mixed silky. LOL
Robbed??? She is more than blessed! Get that Eurocentric bs out of here!!
song bird,
I agreeeee!!
It’s not 4C. It’s 4B.
꧁ Orlando Cruz ꧂ you have issues

Those of who you are saying her hair isn’t 4c need to stop and realize the difference between TEXTURE and CURL PATTERN. You can still have 4c hair and it be a different texture, causing the hair to look different on different people. There are some people with 4a hair that’s silky texture and some people with 4a hair that is kinky. The girl with silky hair will obviously have way more defined curls. I didn’t see any curls or coils in her hair that would make her 4a or 4b??? The hair typing chart has nothing to do with texture and everything to do with curl size. Every girl with 2a-4c hair will not have an identical head of hair. It will look completely different or similar on some people.
It's dope that you're showing us that not all biracial people have losely textured or "good hair".I'm glad you've embraced that. Thank you.
This comment is so dumb
I'm absolutely loving ittt😍😍 I'm so happy I've found a youtuber that is mixed and has 4c hair like me💕💕
Same for me. My dad is mixed but my mom isn’t. She’s just light skinned. But I get most of my hair and genes from her (which I love).
💕💕
Same! As a kid, I use to be ''mad'' that I didn't get ANYTHING from my father(white). My hair is 4C everywhere thanks to my mom. Seeing other mixed girls with kinky texture is so cool though. Proud of my kinky curls! We're not alone!
She does not have 4c hair. She is confused if u want to see 4c hair go to nappyfu channel...this girl is between 4a/4b she could even be 3c wants she learns how to really take care of it...I thought my hair was 4c for a while until I got better with my routine
Same to me too...am mixed as well and my hair is just like my mom...I used to get mad with my hair as well...butnow i just learn to accept and love my hair...❤️❤️😊just struggling to get it long😁😁😁
I also hope that you don’t concentrate on growth but more so on healthy hair. Healthy is good hair. Properly detangling your hair and knowing your porosity so that you can proceed with learning how to moisturizer your hair is a good start coupled with weekly deep conditioning. Your hair is going to grow but just don’t rush this present experience. I miss my twa. 😞
Girl you are going to go far. Your mix race with 4C hair, And we don’t see that on UA-cam. And even myself I’m full black. But it’s nice see someone my skin tone with my hair texture. Representation is everything. And I’m excited to see your journey. Yes. Healthy hair is more important. !! And I trim my hair often because I’m focused on having healthy hair. But yh, I’m so excited to see what styles you do!!
Thank you, love!
So happy to see mixed girls with different curls! My mom is Black and my dad is Japanese but I have 3c/4a hair. Most blasians have 2a-3b hair so it made me insecure about my hair. Espeically since my best friend is blasian too with 2a hair. I thought i was broke or something was wrong with me for awhile. I love your channel so much already ❤ your hair looks so good!
Natsu S blasians w 2a waves ?? Wow I’m surprised
im blasian tooo! and ikr most blasians have like really loose curls.
You do not look like a boy! God made you uniquely beautiful. Continue to embrace and learn your hair, and it will help you love you for you even more! Make sure you deep condition weekly, for healthy frizzfree hair.
drinabooboo agreed and deep condition with steam when you can.
You look so cute with your natural hair!!!! It suits you so well
you look beautiful i love the texture and how you styled it. it does sadden me that people are arguing as to wheteher you are true 4C. that's irrelevant. from what i heard you say is you want to learn your hair and have healthy hair. i wish you the well on your journey.
Her hair is definitely 4c. Not all 4c textures look the same. Nonetheless, you look amazing! IMO I think Camille Rose Naturals has great products for type 4 hair. My favorite is her curl love moisture milk, you should give it a try. Plus if you don’t like a product Target lets you return it with your receipt lol. Anyways always remember that your journey is your journey and It’s all about trial and error. Good luck!
Diamond Laing 4c does not look like that
Girl this is not 4c, this looks 4b. I have 4c in the back of my head and 4b in the front of my head, her hair looks like my front
Like I said. Not everyone’s texture is the same. Not all 4c hair looks exactly alike.
Diamond Laing yes not everyone’s texture is the same, that’s why the hair chart was created and even expanded upon. 4b is quite distinctive from 4c. I would know, I have both textures in my head.
This is 4c hair it looks great and healthy
Absolutely gorgeous, the cut suits you!
Remember patience is key. Also, don't get down during the trial & error faze. Do what works for you and your hair,and pay attention to how your hair responds to different products.
Naptural Sense I’m 3 years natural n and STILL in trial and error “penalty box”😊
Naptural Sense great advice 👍.
Yay! Congrats. Another 4c gal free to experience their natural hair!
you would look so cute with a tapered cut 🤩
I was thinking the same thing!!
The fro looks 25x better! Never go back to relax please
Honestly I think you are so incredibly brave for showing this process. This can be so difficult and emotional. And truthfully you look absolutely gorgeous with your big chop! Simply beautiful! 💜
Omg, I'm sure she knows what her hair type is, the hair is on her head not yours 🙄.
Anyways your fro looks real nice! I can see that you love it. Can't wait to see your natural journey 🙌🏾
Ell Gee ikr?? I get sick of ppl trying to tell other people what type of hair they have
Just bc her hair fros doesnt mean its type 4, looks more like type 3.
Type 3 is a lot more looser , her hair is super thick and doesn’t have much of a coil or curl . Her hair matches my grannies hair super soft but doesn’t have a visible coil or curl
And that's the standard for 4C, the curl pattern EXISTS but it's appearence is so TIGHT as to appear *undistinguishable.* Kia is right.
Product makers need to come with a way to SAFELY loosens the pattern *without relaxers and so it doesn't cause that hydral fatigue.* It would encourage more 4Cs to STAY natural if they could SEE their curl pattern like everyone else.
Dolores Byrd I’ve seen a lot of 4c women get their hair to show some type of coiling with the max hydration method . I believe the hair just needs to reach that mark of hydration to visibly see the pattern of hair. I have 3c4a and when I deep condition , or clay masks , and use oils and butters to help hydrate my hair my coils show so much better . That’s y I believe UA-cam some is crappy because WE see all of these ppls hair types and we wonder why it doesn’t look the same , and the answer is simple we may have the same hair type but just a different porosity or density making our hair feel different or appear different but we are in the same curl pattern. Like a lot of 4c women I’ve seen so many and their all so different and feels different. And my goodness I never thought 4c would feel soooo soft my grannies hair was exactly that. We are so caught up with hair texture we forget the health of our hair and if we get the health part up then just imagine the appearance of the hair !!
Girl you look goooooooood! 😍
does hair typing really matter?? embrace that natural hair girl its BEAUTIFUL!!
This is exactly how I did mine, 6 month of curiosity and getting carried away with the sneaky little cuts... then I couldn't wait anymore and had to cut it all! Exciting! I hope you enjoy the process of nurturing and styling it. Enjoy each stage xxx
Once I made that first snip, the deal was sealed lmao XD and thank you!!
Fascinating with all these "she's not curly enough/I'm more curly than her" comments. lol Get
a life.
absolutely love the cut! it suits you soooo well!
Omg, I love it! Welcome to freedom! You look amazing!! ❤️❤️
You are gorgeous! I love your hair!! Good luck on your journey!
Went natural around the same time. Similar length and texture. 💃🏽💃🏽 I’m loving my hair.
Congrats!! :)
Your hair is gorg!! It totally brings out your features.
short hair suits you so well, you're gorgeous!
Omg!!!!! You look soooooo beautiful. I recently did another big chop (just because I love my short hair). But you look absolutely great and I’m so happy for you. ❤️❤️
Yes!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!! I’m so excited to watch you go through this journey
I remember my big chop. January 1st 2017 I went in the bathroom turned on “I am not my hair” and I chopped my hair off. It was so emotional but I felt so happy and free. First thing I did was wash and deep condition it I was so excited to show it off to all my friends.
You're definitely 4c. They arent many 4c youtubers so im glad you are getting to know your hair and documenting it on UA-cam.
You’re so brave. The new cut is gorgeous on you! 😍
I absolutely love this! First off your natural hair is beautiful, the short hair looks amazing on you. Secondly, it's nice to finally see someone I can actually relate to on youtube or even just in general. I am also mixed, my mom is white, father is black but I am very fair skinned with extremely kinky, curly hair varying from 3C-4B. I grew up in a small, predominately white city where no one looked like me and hairdressers would turn me away. I went natural maybe 7 or 8 years ago and I turned to youtube for inspiration and help, and although I am well into my hair journey, I look forward to following you through yours and it's nice to see someone I can relate to on many different levels.
This is so awesome! Your hair is beautiful! 😍😍 I cant wait to do mines. Thank you for doing it! ❤️
😍😍😍I love it!! As you go along you will see your beautiful curls and coils more vividly. I’m here to support. 👍🏾
I'm excited for your journey. Subscribed! One of the few persons I've seen in a while with ur hair texture starting from scratch.
I didn't follow the first time when you showed your hair but I def support this big chop girl!! Your hair is going to FLOURISH!!! will be watching!! #subscribed
You look amazing! Your natural hair really compliments your face shape as well. Very pretty. Good luck and mostly HAVE FUN on your natural hair journey!
Omg l'm so glad you came up on my newsfeed!!! Now l'm a instant subbie!!! LOVE YOUR HAIR!!!😍😍😍😍
Congratulations!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Your hair and especially your natural hair color is gorgeous!! I’m so happy you’re happy!
Yaaaassss, the best thing you could have done! So happy for you and can't wait to see your progress
Congrats on your big chop!!! Excited for you and your journey
✨Daaaammmn. Girl looking FFFIIIINEEE XD the big chop looks amazing on you! ✨
Your features and bone structure pops with the natural hair. Enjoy your natural hair journey!
I wish I had type 4 hair. Having type 3 hair is good but in my opinion I just love 4 type hair so much 😭❣️!!
Your hair looks beautiful and so fluffy. I love it!😍it takes time to figure out what products your hair will like. It all depends on your porosity and sometimes density of your hair. I’ve learned that throughout my journey.
you literally look so unbelievably elegant and gorgeous with this short natural look. youre giving me hepburn vibes, youre so beautiful and i think you look even prettier natural!
Love the new look.
Your natural hair without any styling is so beautiful!
I don't really like castor oil (I know scandalous) and I wouldn't encourage you to rinse your hair out daily, dampen it if you're styling but not rinse. A water based leave in conditioner at night, deep condition weekly and be gentle with your hairline and ends.
I like Camille Rose Natural fresh curl, Aunt Jackies curl la la, tgin honey deep conditioner and I add hydrolised wheat protein from green beauty once a month (she has a UA-cam channel).
For styles i secretly try out stuff I see on Pinterest and for advice I like nappyheadedjojoba, green beauty, naturallyhigh and naturally curly.com- all have UA-cam channels and those girls have long healthy hair. Take your time, be patient and trust your intuition, nothing I do may work for your hair.
You look very nice with your twa, wish you luck on your natural hair journey and thanks for sharing your story and being honest, couldn’t been easy 😘
It will 2 years on 4/16/18 since I shaved my hair off. It’s been such a wonderful experience for me. I feel so beautiful and I don’t deal with a damaged scalp anymore. Freedom is everything and now you have to find products that work for YOUR hair. I ❤️ your hair and we can see your pretty face!
Idc what you’re mixed with or not. Just glad to see another with hair similar to my own. Subbing to follow your journey!
Your hair looks soooooooo good!! 🙌🏾🎉
congrats on the big chop! Love your hair, its beautiful :D
I'm so happy for you. Literally just came from the video where you were explaining your relaxed hair. You look great honey!!!
Your hair looks amazing!! It was so much fun to watch the transformation.
Omgosh you’re so pretty and I’m glad you have type 4 hair!! I’m totally subscribing
You will eventually find what products and methods work best for you and your hair. Don't be discouraged by all the suggestions that will pour in. I'm excited to see your journey! new subbie!!
Your natural hair looks incredible on you ❤️!!!! Absolutely gorgeous
You look beautiful with your big chop! It brings out your features and looks amazing! I agree that healthy hair is the best hair and feel that if you keep that as your focus, you will have the hair of your dreams! Beautiful!
It goes to show that whatever one’s natural features best suit them. You looked good with straight hair but you look GORGEOUS with your natural hair texture. It suits you so much and just brings out your facial features plus it’s flattering af. Good luck on the journey sis, it’s a hell of a ride re-learning to style your hair once you go natural but it’s a worthwhile journey! 🙌🏿
Love love LOVE this video! I chopped my hair about 2 years ago and it has been the healthiest it has ever been! And need I say that i use to be a flat iron junky. Heat damage was my frenemy 😬. Im so glad you have embraced your 4c hair and joined the natural hair community!! Good luck 👍🏽 you look great! 😍
Im so glad i found your channel! Im mixed as well, and forever i felt like «i didnt belong» because i never saw a lightskin girl with kinkier hair. I know it may be stupid, but it sucks feeling like no one else is like you. I always felt like i wasnt enough of this or too much of that. Like i should have had another type of hair. I wanna do a big chop as well, but not yet haha. But i loooove that you did this, and im so excited to follow your journey! You rock, girl 🌞❤️
The fro suits you so well! Deep conditioning is gonna become second nature. I'm here rooting for you!
She looks stunning. It fits her face so well!!
I am so proud of you... Your take on your natural hair is inspiring... I sometimes hate to have curly hair as they are hard to maintain. But I have 3C curls and my struggle is nothing compared to yours. You inspire me to love myself the way I am.
Yipppie!!!!! You do it! Omygheez, it looks so great on you darling!
First of all you are absolutely STUNNING. Secondly, I have 4c hair and I love the Shea moisture coconut and hibiscus curl enhancing smoothie and the curling gel soufflé. It leaves my coils defined and so does eco styler gel but I usually experience flaking with the gel. You’ll find out what your hair likes and doesn’t like as you experiment with products. My favorite way to wear my short hair is with the part on the side. That’s definitely my go to!
I love how your hair turned out!! Its beautiful!!
I just LOVEEEEEE your personality! Good luck on your journey. I’m right there with you waiting at the finish line! Enjoy it while you can❤️❤️❤️.......oh yeah SUBSCRIBED
I haven't watched all of the video yet, but I was so excited to see you did the big chop. You look gorgeous!!! Good luck on your journey boo 😘.
So glad to see someone section their hair off and not just staring chopping at random like crazy. So exciting! You and I are beginning this journey about the same time, think I have a month on you... either way making me want to do it too!!
You are so adorable! Happy to share your journey with you as a new subbie !
So excited for you! You look great...enjoy the journey💕💕💕
Also love how you cut it as well. Lots of people just go at it n it comes or uneven n patchy. You def went through very careful sections n made sure it was all uniform! 👍👌 great job love!!
Absolutely love it😍. You're so beautiful🌸
You look gorgeous! Your hair is beautiful and i know it’s going to flourish! Don’t worry about hair typing just yet you probably won’t know the full potential of your hair until you get into a good healthy hair routine. Wishing you all the prosperity in the world! ✨
Your hair looks great! I am so excited for you.
I love this. Congratulations! Subscribed and looking forward to watching your journey ❤️
I think you’d look super pretty with finger waves...the short cut looks great on you! ❤️
You and your hair are gorgeous! ❣😍💗💕💖
As you mentioned, and this happened to me too, after the cut it took me time to learn what my hair was like fully natural and at a shorter length. Like you, I loved my hair after I cut it too, but there was a learning curve. I eventually got my hair cut by a professional and that helped. Then I let it grow out into a style that I liked better. Now l am at a stage where I am completely comfortable with styling my hair. Although I appreciate all types of hair, On me, I like my hair most the way that it grows out of my head.
Cheers as you move forward on your natural hair journey! Thanks for sharing your experience with us❣❣❣
This length really suits you so well! You look so mature and beautiful!
You look BEAUTIFUL! Your face suits short hair. I big chopped April 2017 and it was the best decision of my life and wish I had done it years earlier. Enjoy your natural hair journey, we'll be supporting you the whole way! xo 💜
Thank you for sharing you vulnerability with us. You are truly an inspiration, and you look beautiful! God bless!
Gorgeous. The fun (and not so fun) begins. Get to know and love your hair
I love the idea that your hair is in fact 4c,and most of all that you will get to travel this path with a brand new heart of acceptance, Congratulations ❤
Looks great!! So thick , I can see all sorts of cute styles you will be trying out, keep us in the loop
Enjoy your natural hair journey. I wore natural hair in the sixties and seventies, now I’m back natural at 71 years old.
I don’t have the same hair texture, but I’m so excited to see your journey. I also have a lot of damaged straight hair and am terrified to cut that off, so I applaud you.
Im soooo fascinated!! Genetics are fascinating, i see a white face with black hair ... its mesmerizing
Absolutely amazing!! Congrats on starting your new journey. I have similar hair to yours and I love naturally smitten products. I hope you find what works for you.
You look beautiful!!!
Hey, you look sooo pretty!!!! It’s all trial and error- but just listen to your hair... I think you may still have a few straight ends left though. When I first big chopped- I did what you did- just cut. And I still had a lot of relaxed ends though. I had to go a barber to get down to the natural part and to even it up. If you decide to go that route- they’ll cut off some more length. But don’t freak out! I promise you it will grow back very quickly!!! Keep us updated! I’m excited for you!
Your natural hair looks amazing all the best on your hair journey!
