When I started eating much healthier I noticed that my hair grew MUCH faster (2 inches this summer!), my dandruff went away, my hair stopped splitting at the ends, my acne is a lot better, and my skin is brighter! Definitely works
- eat healthy, get your daily nutrients (and don't drink alcohol and do drugs) - cut your hair every now and then - don't wash your hair too frequently and only shampoo your scalp - use the right shampoo and conditioner: clear shampoos (clarifying) for oily hair and pearly/milky shampoos (hydrating) for dry and/or curly hair lighter conditioners for oily hair and heavier conditioners for dry hair - be gentle with your hair - hydrate drink enough water use a deep conditioner every week - limit the amount of chemicals and heat on your hair. know your hair limits
Kyra Onion juice and garlic juice stopped that in 2 masks! Add coconut and argan oil to that mixture and leave on your head! Do 2 weekly ! I only see 2, 3 hairs on the comb as to 50 on that comb! Try it and let me know
Seriously, no shade, since you became licensed your hair has came along nicely. I've been subbed for years and I remember disliking how your hair looked at times, the state of it, but I like(ed) you I really didn't care I felt that way! Sort of like a friend you accept how they are no matter what, as you should! your hair now looks so Healthy, plush and nice. Grew quite nice it's a nice length
lol I am ROLLING at what the hair dresser said about cutting she was like girlll I won't even charge you let me do this! 😄 and yes please show us proper shampoo!
For me I feel like I have brood shoulders. So I like my hair to be really long because I feels like it makes them look smaller. So I do hold on to my straggly ends.
If they are damaged is better to cut them off because in the long run they will get worse and break if, making pieces sorted than when you get a trim. Half an inch to an once every six months doesn't hurt.
I have super curly hair, so it doesn't seem like it's really growing. But then I'll pull a piece straight against my chest and notice, "Hey! It IS growing!"
Awesome video! I love how she said her hair is "an extension of her soul" or how every single one of her tips was accurate. I wish I could find a hairdresser just like her in my area, she's just flawlessly professional, a true artist. Beautiful!!!
I saw this in my recommend and I'm so glad I watched it. I used to watch you back in the day and you're hair knowledge has just gotten better. I'm glad I found you again.
thank you so much. i see advice re: growing your hair from people all the time and it's really helpful to see stylists who actually know what works showing what to do
I'm about a year late to this video, but I wanted to say that I've been growing out my hair awhile and it was about hip length, and I hadn't gotten a trim in AGES even though I knew I should because I was really concerned with maintaining the length. But after watching this video I got inspired and took off about two inches from the ends of my hair, and it already looks and feels so much better that I don't even care that I lost some length. So thank you for giving me the courage to go ahead and take off the ends, with the encouragement that it'll both help with growing it out and make it look better in the meantime! I know the latter is definitely true already. ♥
Using a silk or satin bonnet along with scalp massaging every night with my fingers/ hands has done wonders for my hair! I get my hair bleached around a level 10 3-4 times a month. If I'm clarifying my hair I use a clarifying shampoo for my first wash then a bond building shampoo for second wash, bond repair mask, and then follow with a bond repairing conditioner once a week or every other week. The rest of the time I'll use my bond building routine on my regular washes. I ALWAYS wash twice and I will use a scalp scrub 2 times a month and alternate with a rice water rinse in between the scrub about 2 times a month. Once I'm out of the shower, I use a microfiber towel while I do my skin care routine. Once it's about 85% dry I'll use a leave in conditioner followed by a coconut milk serum and then blow dry at that's it. Unless I'm going to use a flat iron, I'll use tresseme thermal protection (I only straighten my hair once a month if that). I've grown my hair so much and I'm getting new growth and it's healthier than it's ever been!!! My hair dresser is so impressed with the difference in my hair health, look, and feel. I rotate 3 different shampoo and conditioner lines. Most from loreal but I do have a gentler clarifying shampoo from live, love, locks that I use about 1-2 times a month. It's worked so great for me and my hair looks and feels thicker, fuller, softer, and shinier and also keeps my style for up to 4 days. I only wash my hair twice a week and don't have to use dry shampoo at all. THE MOST IMPORTANT THAT WAS LEFT OUT IN THIS VIDEO IS NOT WEARING TIGHT HAIRSTYLES. I've opted for a claw clip or those hair ties that look like an old telephone cord. The hair regrowth in my front and sides had thanked me by growing back about 3-4: inches in less than 6 months. I got this helps someone
Kasy Santos yes!! And does it make your hair fall out?! Because the last 2 months my scalp has become so dry and my hair is shedding left right and centre 🙃 pls help me
@@dacookoosnest go to the doctors about it. If you are allergic to any of your hair products this can cause dandruff. It turned out I was allergic to all of them, I just use baby shampoo and macadamia oil and don't have it at all now.
I love your energy, fantastic video ! I usually can’t sit through hair videos, because everybody takes so long to get to the point and they also don’t really explain WHY to do their tips. Love how informative you are
The cutting your hair one is so true. My hair is 3A curly and when I don't cut it, it looks draggy and like it's weighing me down even though it's nice and long. I recently got it cut 4 inches and put long layers in it and it looks so much better and it's already growing a lot.
Show us how to shampoo properly ! Very informative and I can tell you're passionate about your hair and the content you're promoting. Plus I like your fluffy pink background
I thought it was only me who thought these things, but what a relief you've said all this! I have people say 'you're so dramatic' - no it's just the truth if you want good hair! x
Thanks Brittney ❤️ I have always had long, thick wavy hair and had no problem growing it. But 18 months ago I lost my husband. Since then my hair has become thinner. I couldn’t understand why, but I haven’t been eating properly, not sleeping well and drank too much wine ( though I have stopped drinking), I realize now I need to look after myself and eat healthier I have gone 4 sizes smaller in jeans. I wasn’t big to start with, but it has taken its toll on my hair. So thanks again I I will take your advice. Happy new year ❤
i had to pause this vid to comment this...... you are very inspiring, watching this video makes me realize so much about my daily habits. i was so confused to why my hair falls out so much and why my skin and nails felt and looked like it was not taken care of. i would do and try everything to "take care" of my self but it was like i was just getting worse. life style change is a must for me, i know that now. cuz my hair and skin show it. not only you help but many other professionals on UA-cam that care to warn other people about how to take better care of them self. P.s you are not rude, being blunt is being honest, and that's the nicest thing you can do.
Britney I am an ex-hippie (still a hippy) who has always had long hair. I play Blues Harp and write songs. Am, almost, 65 yrs old, been a type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetic) since 1974, sometimes beard, always mustache. My last hair cut was roughly 10 yrs ago (wasn't writing it down) it is now, just, short of shoulders. I am trying to eat right, use coconut, tea tree oil, and shea butter. My hair is greying and starting to fall out (shed). I got here from a search for how to grow long hair. My question is How?.
The trim thing is so true. I used to shop at this one grocery store for like 2 years when I lived in Dallas and there was this girl who worked there who had the worst split ends I've ever seen. Her hair started out normal at the top but just sort of fanned out at the ends until it was so wispy and scraggly that there was no definite END to it. I could tell she was trying to grow it out and hadn't cut it in a long time but I didn't see it get any longer over the 2 years I lived there, it just looked the same the whole time. I really wanted to chloroform her and trim all that crap off.
I've watched this video for the first time about 8 months ago and since then I have followed (most of) the advice you gave. These tips really work! I also felt like my hair wasn't growing and it was quite damaged and eversince I have been incorporating these tips it's been getting better and better. My hair is starting to get loooong. Thank you so much for helping me change my hair ❤️
What if you don't have dry or split ends? Do you still need to cut it? The best way I personally have found to grow my hair out is to not cut it for at least 6 months.
I tried this to help me grow out all of my old box color hair dyes and it worked!!!! I would have it cut into a bob every month and over time I noticed that my hair was growing longer because I didn’t have dead ends just breaking off all the time.
Ohhhh, my GOSH, Brittney!! Somehow you showed up on my recommended. I'm so happy for finding you!! I am crazy about your suggestions, but even more so, I LOVE your honesty!!! I soo wish you were closer, cause I would do a small "field trip" to see you, but it's just too far. THANK YOU FOR SHARING your knowledge with us! May you have a Blessed week!
Exogen is an additional stage. This is a stage when the hair is resting or dormant. This is also a stage that can actually destroy the follicles if people do not follow all the food recommendations you Brittney makes. This also could happen due to aging when you perhaps don't have the circulation you need to stimulate a growing cycle. Keep the circulation of your scalp going.
Of course cut your hair when you need it but you don’t have to cut it to grow your hair. I haven’t cut my hair in 4 yrs besides cutting split ends of course but I put oils in my hair and I have curly hair. I shampoo once a week and condition it a couple times a week. That’s it. I oil my hair every Sunday and deep condition the next day after washing it. If you take care of your hair you won’t have damaged hair.
This is your BEST look. Love your hair colour/makeup. Dark hair suits you SO MUCH. I buzzcut my hair a month ago after years of box dye black. Turns out my natural hair is ashy black already. I need to stop daily washing though just love my hot showers lol 💦🧖♀️
I am one of those girls where my hair does not grow! But hearing your list there are definitely some things that I can do better that I do not do now. I was thinking about getting my hair cut short and trying to grow it out and after hearing this I think I will try it. Heres hoping!
I have a few chronic illnesses and have to take quite a few prescriptions in order to be healthy and get the most of my day, does this negatively my hair growth?
I shaved my head and starting a new hair care routine! No heat, no chemicals and no chemical hair dies! Do you think I can get away with natural henna to dye my hair ? How often can I dye my hair with henna without any damage? Can you recommend a henna hair mask that speeds hair growth? Thank you in advance!
omg please do a shampoo technique vid i have super fine hair that gets ravaged when i use even the gentlest shampoos, i notice my hairdresser gets so much more volume from my bangs and i think it has to do with the technique of washing and scrubbing it without stripping... love your channel!!!
Nutrition is soooo important it's insane. I use to have an eating disorder and use drugs and alcohol and my nails were super short and brittle and my hair was super thin and fell out constantly, giving up those things and going vegan for just a few months has made my hair almost twice as thick and my nails stronger and longer :)
Krr Brr - Really?? Man, that is crazy, it made a world of difference on my hair. But with that said, my hair was put through years of abuse, from all the highlighting, flat ironing, wearing clip in extensions - all of it really took it's toll and created an extensive amount of damage to my all ready dry hair. I started out using Deva Curl's "Low-Poo" shampoo and their "One" Conditioner every morning - and then I did their ultra conditioning moisture masks about 2-3 times a week. I stopped using it because frankly it is fairly expensive - but for me, it was worth every penny, as it seriously transformed my hair within about a month's time... (BTW - It's kind of weird how we each have "KB" initials!)
Kelley Broussard Mackaig yeah i mean it sadly :(. And my hair is bleached blonde and very thin. But if you want to keep your bleached/highlighted hair healty, you should use hair masks once or twice a week. And you should always use conditioner when wash your hair. And dont brush it when its dry dry. This is gonna make e HUGE difference :)
The As I Am coconut co-wash is also good if you have dry hair and it's so cheap. I use the no poo and one condition delight too and to limit the amount I use I purchased the co-wash. It's honestly helped my hair so much. My hair is thick, and it was chemically dried. Combination of those products and limiting heat usage saved my hair and it helped it grow. My hair hadn't been growing for years and after using them I can already tell that it's growing.
I have virgin hair. I'm currently a month on no poo but i think im gonna go back. You NEED one of those like really thick bristle wooden brushes to spread out the oils, otherwise its just gonna be greasy. Then i co-wash the ends with conditioner to keep it hydrated.
In my experience split ends don't stop your hair from growing. And getting a trim every time i got split ends would dry me of money and make me bold because I get split ends two weeks after a hair appointment.
I used gel on my hair and it broke off my hair completely I have a soft curly afro so my hair had a texturizer in it with the gel , that made my hair really short, now I wear protective hair styles and also use coconut oil and herbal peppermint oils to moisturize and stimulate hair growth, I just want to know what advice can u give me as a young girl for my hair so it can grow longer and stay healthy?
So for work I am required to have my hair gelled to my scalp and in a bun. No fly aways or it is out of regs(I'm military). I do want to grow my hair back to how long it was but I have to wash all that product out of my hair daily or it makes my scalp itch. So how can I help my hair be healthy around that?
Great video as always. Can you please do a video on maintaining your hair while you workout. The struggle is real to have nice hair and workout regularly.
I’m a new subscriber and I’m in love with all your videos! I just want to start the journey of growing my hair in the healthier way possible and this video is just what I need. Thanks 😊
What do you recommend for women that are in the military? I have to wear my hair up in a tight bun with a lot of product, every day I work. I try to go 3 days without washing and try my best to not use too much product but it gets hard...
Awesome! Brittany, thank you for all of this knowledge. I learned so much. I will make that lifestyle change. I also love that you know how important it is to nourish your body.
I'm deffinetley guilty of being a daily washer. I know it's so bad and I've really been trying not to do it but it's so hard for me. But I just try to tell myself "would you want somewhat dirty hair, or no hair at all." I donated 14inches of hair (never been dyed) 2 years ago and I'm still trying to grow it back to the same length I had it before, which was down to my belly button. I drink TONS of water and deep condition regularly. I'm trying my best because I miss my long hair so much.
Oil in hair is great as a deep conditioner, but it's nourishing, not hydrating. If you want to keep hydration in hair use aloe vera, or yogurt, or honey, and allow the hair to air dry.
Girl I wish you could come to Maryland i've been to so many hairdressers and being mixed they usually mess my hair up so I'm terrified to go to another hairdresser it's going to make my hair worse specially now that I finally got it long and some what healthy.
PLEASE continue to grace your staffs, clients and business with positivity, love and realistic education. This earned you a like and subscribe from me. Xoxo
I have to color my hair every 6 weeks due to greying hair. Do you suggest a certain brand? I started using Madison Reed not sure I am sold on it for the price.
Is it bad to leave in a deep conditioner overnight? I use Shea Moisture hair products and take very good care of my hair and skin. I am growing out my very short hair to an asymmetrical style. My hair grows fast. It's thick and coarse so I use leave in conditioners, like "It's a 10." After I color, I use Ion color conditioner and leave in for about 20 mins. Probably over kill, but I make sure my hair is moisturized well. I choose products without sulfates, parabens, etc., as I prefer the most beneficial products for skin and hair. Thank you for this video!
about the split ends, you can mend them with things like olaplex, and as long as you consistently work on this, and can make them work, I don't think you need a trim. Especially when you just explained the hair cycles. You're just going to regrow a new healthy hair where the split end hair was
Yes! I uses to use pro style gel and I'm not even black! lol...I just loved their products and hairstyles. Also, love how real you are and tell it how it is! thanks for the info!
Please do a video on deep conditioners. Idk where to start or what ingredients/brands to look for. My hair is in a grow out pixie phase and i want to make sure it grows healthy. Its also slightly wavy with thick hair follicles. What would you recommend?
What about a single glass, every now and then? A few sips, from time to time... As for hair-cuts, in the past, when I had my hair cut, it was like; my hair had just began growing, then it got cut. That little bit of length it has gained, got cut of. So, what use in the end anyway?
Thank you Brittney, I appreciate you & these videos. A lot of this I'm excited to know that I knew intuitively & am still learning so much. I'd like to see the shampoo video please
i think my hair is so healthy that i didn‘t need to cut it after 4 months. it only felt a tiny but damaged in the ends. this time i‘ll try to wait at least 6 months
whats your opinion on not shampooing and conditioning your hair just using water to wash your hair i've seen a couple of videos on it and was just wondering
I see hair stylists always say if you want long hair to trim it, but everyone I know who has grown their hair out has never trimmed it. My sister went from hair above her shoulders to hair down to her butt in like 2 years and I asked her what she did and she just said to not cut it.
well, it is important to cut of damaged hair. Split ends cant be fixed and they will travel upwards. I imagine it's like a wooden plank that already has a crack down the middle. If you step on it it will break. An intact plank however will be able to take a lot more. As long as you dont have split ends you dont really need to cut your hair. If the damage is not concentrated on the ends you can also take the time to s&d. Basically go though your hair and individualy cut out all the split ends. (with sharp hair cutting scissors ofc)That way you dont lose any length at all. Damaged ends tend to grab onto other hair as well. This can create tangles and further damage. Plus it just doesn't look or feel very nice imo. (be aware though that product buildup can make your hair do velcro things as well. In that case just shampooing your ends will get rid of that.) How damaged your hair gets depends on how you treat it (and on your genes). Bittney said to cut you hair every 3 months. I think that's overkill unless your hair is super damaged and the ends keep breaking off. (bleaching your hair to much and extreme heat can lead to this) If your hair is fairly healthy you're better of not trimming it a lot (I recomend trimming of only 2 mm or so if you want to maintail a thick hemline) and s&d-ing to get rid of split ends.
Hi Brittney, I've been trying to grow my hair out for a couple years now but it just gets to one point and stops. I do regular trims, only wash my hair every couple days, I don't brush or comb it, conditioning gets all the tangles but it still falls out so easily! I haven't dyed it in a couple years and its naturally straight so I don't use any heat. I use vegan shampoo and conditioner as well. What could possibly be damaging my hair???
Me: Hmm.. I have been trying to grow long hair for 2 years now.. Maybe this might help!
Her: Eat healthy
Me: Crap....
Emy Kit Kat same
Emy Kit Kat
her: eat healthy
Me: literally eating chocolate cake while I watch this video
Me too, was like...errr okay, might never have truly long hair
Emy Kit Kat LMFAO same🤣
Haha that's me also
I love how she says, "Ok?" like kinda with attitude. Idk why, her sass is great.
When I started eating much healthier I noticed that my hair grew MUCH faster (2 inches this summer!), my dandruff went away, my hair stopped splitting at the ends, my acne is a lot better, and my skin is brighter! Definitely works
VICTURI!!! Diet?! Would love to know for future references!!!
VICTURI!!! Only 2 inches my hair grew like 6 inches over the summer
2 inches is not that much...
Dream Killer
Hair grows half an inch a month, and their hair may groe slower. It could be a lot.
Thanks for the information
I've watched so many videos on how to grow hair recently but none have been as detailed, concise and straight forward as this. Thank you!!
Yeah. I don't have this problem so not sure what tips I'm thinking I'll get.
agreed. this is so practical & some actual good information.
- eat healthy, get your daily nutrients (and don't drink alcohol and do drugs)
- cut your hair every now and then
- don't wash your hair too frequently and only shampoo your scalp
- use the right shampoo and conditioner:
clear shampoos (clarifying) for oily hair and pearly/milky shampoos (hydrating) for dry and/or curly hair
lighter conditioners for oily hair and heavier conditioners for dry hair
- be gentle with your hair
- hydrate
drink enough water
use a deep conditioner every week
- limit the amount of chemicals and heat on your hair. know your hair limits
Thanks
girl you know we want a shampoo video! lol
This video compared to every other hair growth video... Is so much better and more in depth. Thanks for going into certain details and being truthful.

Kristy O'Connor lol I feel you
If they are damaged is better to cut them off because in the long run they will get worse and break if, making pieces sorted than when you get a trim. Half an inch to an once every six months doesn't hurt.
Actually long hair will make you look boxy. Trust me...

My hair is greying and starting to fall out (shed). I got here from a search for how to grow long hair. My question is How?.
Great video !! Please do a shampooing video :)
myedwe will do!
The trim thing is so true. I used to shop at this one grocery store for like 2 years when I lived in Dallas and there was this girl who worked there who had the worst split ends I've ever seen. Her hair started out normal at the top but just sort of fanned out at the ends until it was so wispy and scraggly that there was no definite END to it. I could tell she was trying to grow it out and hadn't cut it in a long time but I didn't see it get any longer over the 2 years I lived there, it just looked the same the whole time. I really wanted to chloroform her and trim all that crap off.
I've watched this video for the first time about 8 months ago and since then I have followed (most of) the advice you gave. These tips really work! I also felt like my hair wasn't growing and it was quite damaged and eversince I have been incorporating these tips it's been getting better and better. My hair is starting to get loooong. Thank you so much for helping me change my hair ❤️
My hair is very healthy and mid thigh length, I haven't cut it in many years. Trimming/cutting is not always necessary.
I use rice water to grow my hair out and its working really well but i dont really know how many times a week i should put it in my hair
1x a week for healthy n 1x a mnth if its dry
What if you don't have dry or split ends? Do you still need to cut it? The best way I personally have found to grow my hair out is to not cut it for at least 6 months.
I tried this to help me grow out all of my old box color hair dyes and it worked!!!! I would have it cut into a bob every month and over time I noticed that my hair was growing longer because I didn’t have dead ends just breaking off all the time.
During the "hydrate" part of the video, I literally got up, paused the video, and filled up a giant bottle of water lmao.
So you said you shouldn’t wash your hair too much but what about not washing it enough, is that a thing
Ohhhh, my GOSH, Brittney!! Somehow you showed up on my recommended. I'm so happy for finding you!! I am crazy about your suggestions, but even more so, I LOVE your honesty!!! I soo wish you were closer, cause I would do a small "field trip" to see you, but it's just too far.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING your knowledge with us!
May you have a Blessed week!
Exogen is an additional stage. This is a stage when the hair is resting or dormant. This is also a stage that can actually destroy the follicles if people do not follow all the food recommendations you Brittney makes. This also could happen due to aging when you perhaps don't have the circulation you need to stimulate a growing cycle. Keep the circulation of your scalp going.
The length and color of your hair looks amazing here
Of course cut your hair when you need it but you don’t have to cut it to grow your hair. I haven’t cut my hair in 4 yrs besides cutting split ends of course but I put oils in my hair and I have curly hair. I shampoo once a week and condition it a couple times a week. That’s it. I oil my hair every Sunday and deep condition the next day after washing it. If you take care of your hair you won’t have damaged hair.
Brittney, your channel is like a hidden gem within UA-cam. Thank you for your educational tips 💞

I'm binge watching your videos! I love how honest you are
Brittny is facial structure goals
This is your BEST look. Love your hair colour/makeup. Dark hair suits you SO MUCH. I buzzcut my hair a month ago after years of box dye black. Turns out my natural hair is ashy black already. I need to stop daily washing though just love my hot showers lol 💦🧖♀️
If you're putting coconut oil in your hair, would you do only your scalp or all of your hair?
I love the comment you made "just think about your hair"! Genious
I am one of those girls where my hair does not grow! But hearing your list there are definitely some things that I can do better that I do not do now. I was thinking about getting my hair cut short and trying to grow it out and after hearing this I think I will try it. Heres hoping!
Should I wrap my hair? It’s fine and straight
I have a few chronic illnesses and have to take quite a few prescriptions in order to be healthy and get the most of my day, does this negatively my hair growth?
angellina fosse
It shouldnt
After your video I chopped my hair and am committed to grow it long and healthy. Gonna take a long time but it 's a process :-D
I shaved my head and starting a new hair care routine! No heat, no chemicals and no chemical hair dies!
Do you think I can get away with natural henna to dye my hair ?
How often can I dye my hair with henna without any damage?
Can you recommend a henna hair mask that speeds hair growth?
Thank you in advance!
Thanks for the tips! Your hair looks beautiful!
MariniSol thank you and you're welcome!
I am so glad I found your channel! You seem so educated in both hair and just in general
omg please do a shampoo technique vid i have super fine hair that gets ravaged when i use even the gentlest shampoos, i notice my hairdresser gets so much more volume from my bangs and i think it has to do with the technique of washing and scrubbing it without stripping... love your channel!!!
Nutrition is soooo important it's insane. I use to have an eating disorder and use drugs and alcohol and my nails were super short and brittle and my hair was super thin and fell out constantly, giving up those things and going vegan for just a few months has made my hair almost twice as thick and my nails stronger and longer :)
I have fine white girl hair. I just let my natural oils work. Can deep conditioning be good for my fine hair?
How do you feel about no poo?
Kara Bear ı personally think its bullshit. I tried it for a while and it didnt make any good difference
Krr Brr - Really?? Man, that is crazy, it made a world of difference on my hair. But with that said, my hair was put through years of abuse, from all the highlighting, flat ironing, wearing clip in extensions - all of it really took it's toll and created an extensive amount of damage to my all ready dry hair. I started out using Deva Curl's "Low-Poo" shampoo and their "One" Conditioner every morning - and then I did their ultra conditioning moisture masks about 2-3 times a week. I stopped using it because frankly it is fairly expensive - but for me, it was worth every penny, as it seriously transformed my hair within about a month's time... (BTW - It's kind of weird how we each have "KB" initials!)
Kelley Broussard Mackaig yeah i mean it sadly :(. And my hair is bleached blonde and very thin. But if you want to keep your bleached/highlighted hair healty, you should use hair masks once or twice a week. And you should always use conditioner when wash your hair. And dont brush it when its dry dry. This is gonna make e HUGE difference :)
The As I Am coconut co-wash is also good if you have dry hair and it's so cheap. I use the no poo and one condition delight too and to limit the amount I use I purchased the co-wash. It's honestly helped my hair so much. My hair is thick, and it was chemically dried. Combination of those products and limiting heat usage saved my hair and it helped it grow. My hair hadn't been growing for years and after using them I can already tell that it's growing.
I have virgin hair. I'm currently a month on no poo but i think im gonna go back. You NEED one of those like really thick bristle wooden brushes to spread out the oils, otherwise its just gonna be greasy. Then i co-wash the ends with conditioner to keep it hydrated.
In my experience split ends don't stop your hair from growing. And getting a trim every time i got split ends would dry me of money and make me bold because I get split ends two weeks after a hair appointment.
Do you have any tips on taming crazy hair? My hair is super curly, but every hair curls a different direction. It's impossible.
I used gel on my hair and it broke off my hair completely I have a soft curly afro so my hair had a texturizer in it with the gel , that made my hair really short, now I wear protective hair styles and also use coconut oil and herbal peppermint oils to moisturize and stimulate hair growth, I just want to know what advice can u give me as a young girl for my hair so it can grow longer and stay healthy?
So for work I am required to have my hair gelled to my scalp and in a bun. No fly aways or it is out of regs(I'm military). I do want to grow my hair back to how long it was but I have to wash all that product out of my hair daily or it makes my scalp itch. So how can I help my hair be healthy around that?
Great video as always. Can you please do a video on maintaining your hair while you workout. The struggle is real to have nice hair and workout regularly.
Hey girl! Could you explain the difference between hydrating your hair and moisturizing it? Thank you so much!!!!!!
"My hair is an extension of my soul" YES! OH MY GOD BEEN SAYING THAT FOREVER!
I’m a new subscriber and I’m in love with all your videos! I just want to start the journey of growing my hair in the healthier way possible and this video is just what I need. Thanks 😊
Yes! Do a how to shampoo your hair properly video!! I am loving your videos!
What do you recommend for women that are in the military? I have to wear my hair up in a tight bun with a lot of product, every day I work. I try to go 3 days without washing and try my best to not use too much product but it gets hard...
Yes please make a how to properly shampoo video 💞💖💕💆🏼♀️
Can you make a video about how to make tight curls without damaging your hair?
Great video, Brittney! How do you feel about the curly Girl method?!?
Awesome! Brittany, thank you for all of this knowledge. I learned so much. I will make that lifestyle change. I also love that you know how important it is to nourish your body.
I'm deffinetley guilty of being a daily washer. I know it's so bad and I've really been trying not to do it but it's so hard for me. But I just try to tell myself "would you want somewhat dirty hair, or no hair at all." I donated 14inches of hair (never been dyed) 2 years ago and I'm still trying to grow it back to the same length I had it before, which was down to my belly button. I drink TONS of water and deep condition regularly. I'm trying my best because I miss my long hair so much.
Oil in hair is great as a deep conditioner, but it's nourishing, not hydrating. If you want to keep hydration in hair use aloe vera, or yogurt, or honey, and allow the hair to air dry.
Girl I wish you could come to Maryland i've been to so many hairdressers and being mixed they usually mess my hair up so I'm terrified to go to another hairdresser it's going to make my hair worse specially now that I finally got it long and some what healthy.
Melanie L maybe a hair tour in the future 🙀
Brittney Gray if you do that would be awesome I definitely would come see you!!
Melanie L girl yes!! It's hard finding stylists around here!
Melanie L go to someone black
Melanie L yessssss
PLEASE continue to grace your staffs, clients and business with positivity, love and realistic education. This earned you a like and subscribe from me. Xoxo
I have to color my hair every 6 weeks due to greying hair. Do you suggest a certain brand? I started using Madison Reed not sure I am sold on it for the price.
Is it bad to leave in a deep conditioner overnight? I use Shea Moisture hair products and take very good care of my hair and skin. I am growing out my very short hair to an asymmetrical style. My hair grows fast. It's thick and coarse so I use leave in conditioners, like "It's a 10." After I color, I use Ion color conditioner and leave in for about 20 mins. Probably over kill, but I make sure my hair is moisturized well. I choose products without sulfates, parabens, etc., as I prefer the most beneficial products for skin and hair. Thank you for this video!
AMAZING VIDEO!! Thank you sooo much. I'm 22 and balding. I'm desperate for hair advice and this helped a lot.
Yes, please show us the shampoo method done properly.
I'd love to see that shampoo tutorial!
Thanks for the tips britt ! Would love to see your work on curly, kinky, tight hair !

Any tips on women who have thin fine hair due to stress and hormones menopause?
about the split ends, you can mend them with things like olaplex, and as long as you consistently work on this, and can make them work, I don't think you need a trim. Especially when you just explained the hair cycles. You're just going to regrow a new healthy hair where the split end hair was
How many strands of hair should you shed a day? Like, what is considered normal?
Yes! I uses to use pro style gel and I'm not even black! lol...I just loved their products and hairstyles. Also, love how real you are and tell it how it is! thanks for the info!
Please do a video on deep conditioners. Idk where to start or what ingredients/brands to look for. My hair is in a grow out pixie phase and i want to make sure it grows healthy. Its also slightly wavy with thick hair follicles. What would you recommend?
Dina Quintanilla pure argan oil, on the ends. Leave it on for half an hour or so, then wash as usual. Very soft, shiny, beautiful hair :)
What about a single glass, every now and then? A few sips, from time to time...
As for hair-cuts, in the past, when I had my hair cut, it was like; my hair had just began growing, then it got cut. That little bit of length it has gained, got cut of. So, what use in the end anyway?
Thank you Brittney, I appreciate you & these videos. A lot of this I'm excited to know that I knew intuitively & am still learning so much. I'd like to see the shampoo video please
i think my hair is so healthy that i didn‘t need to cut it after 4 months. it only felt a tiny but damaged in the ends. this time i‘ll try to wait at least 6 months
This is one of my favorite hair growth videos! Love it 💗
Also, video on how to care for hair when you sleep? What to do/what not to do?
I don't dye, heat,blow dry or put any chemicals in my hair and it has never looked better it's the longest and healthiest it's ever been
whats your opinion on not shampooing and conditioning your hair just using water to wash your hair i've seen a couple of videos on it and was just wondering
I see hair stylists always say if you want long hair to trim it, but everyone I know who has grown their hair out has never trimmed it. My sister went from hair above her shoulders to hair down to her butt in like 2 years and I asked her what she did and she just said to not cut it.
well, it is important to cut of damaged hair. Split ends cant be fixed and they will travel upwards. I imagine it's like a wooden plank that already has a crack down the middle. If you step on it it will break. An intact plank however will be able to take a lot more.
As long as you dont have split ends you dont really need to cut your hair. If the damage is not concentrated on the ends you can also take the time to s&d. Basically go though your hair and individualy cut out all the split ends. (with sharp hair cutting scissors ofc)That way you dont lose any length at all.
Damaged ends tend to grab onto other hair as well. This can create tangles and further damage. Plus it just doesn't look or feel very nice imo.
(be aware though that product buildup can make your hair do velcro things as well. In that case just shampooing your ends will get rid of that.)
How damaged your hair gets depends on how you treat it (and on your genes). Bittney said to cut you hair every 3 months. I think that's overkill unless your hair is super damaged and the ends keep breaking off. (bleaching your hair to much and extreme heat can lead to this)
If your hair is fairly healthy you're better of not trimming it a lot (I recomend trimming of only 2 mm or so if you want to maintail a thick hemline) and s&d-ing to get rid of split ends.
Hi Brittney, I've been trying to grow my hair out for a couple years now but it just gets to one point and stops. I do regular trims, only wash my hair every couple days, I don't brush or comb it, conditioning gets all the tangles but it still falls out so easily! I haven't dyed it in a couple years and its naturally straight so I don't use any heat. I use vegan shampoo and conditioner as well. What could possibly be damaging my hair???
