I want to thank all of you BEAUTIES for showing this video so much love! If you enjoyed this video click here to see all the tips on how I was able to get my hair to this point --> ua-cam.com/video/bQd4-FhtU0E/v-deo.html 💕
Shrinkage means your hair has elasticity. I remember getting heat damage once 4 years ago. My pattern loosened up and I was like "That might be a little more manageable". Girl! My hair went from tight springy coils to frizz in 3 months. I chopped it all off. Gotta have elasticity.
Katrina yes it’s not a bad thing but I was definitely glad when my hair grew so it didn’t bother me as much & heat damage is definitely no joke. How’s your hair now?
@@AmberAlycee my hair is great now. I'm a scissor happy natural and I've never had a long natural hair journey besides the time I had locs. I started a protective style journey in November. I want to see how much I can grow in a year. Great video! Loved the photos and seeing the progress. Lots of inspiration.
Hi, honestly my hair is a lot easier to manage now that it’s longer. My hair has grown since this video and my wash days aren’t as long and I’ve learned a great routine which always helps. Thanks for watching 💞
Thank God I was able to avoid my aunt relaxing my hair 🤦🏾♀️I’m on a journey myself I’m trying to limit products and use what works for me , more protective styles and instead of always leaving my hair looking a mess and just going to sleep I purchased my first bonnet 👏🏾 at age 14 (yes I know big accomplishment😂) so I can keep it protected when I’m sleep but im not worried about length just health 🙏🏾
Liyah’s Life Lol we all start somewhere and I’m so glad you learned the importance early of finding products that work for you & im glad u continued on your journey ! Thanks for watching love ❤️
I love how you delivered your beautiful crown journey. This made me more confident with continuing with my natural crown journey. Thank You Queen Sister.
Thank you so much my love. My goal was definitely to keep anyone on there journey encouraged. I’m so happy you enjoyed this video ! I want to get back into putting more natural hair videos out ! Planning on doing one soon. ♥️
I remember those chemical burns for sure! Washing really is harder when your hair starts to get longer lol Your hair has made a complete transformation. Your hair looks so healthy and beautiful. 😍
Those chemical burns were no JOKE girl 😂 I finally got around to filming my wash day for you guys lol I’ll be posting it this Friday 🥰! & thanks for watching love 😘
Thank you very much. I wanted to highlight the fact that I myself had struggles despite the way my hair looks now. It’s easy to feel like giving up when you think you’re the only one struggling to learn your hair !!!
WOW! I'm so happy that I found you! Your hair is absolutely gorgeous - so healthy, bouncy, and long in just 3 short years! 💕💕 Congratulations Curlfriend!!! 💕💕
I had very pretty curly hair up until I was about 6 an my aunt permed my hair while my mother was gone an I just had to stick with perms after that an I just big chopped June 15TH 🥰
Your hair is so thick and lovely. I love it so much. Our hair looks similar but my hair doesnt do well with weave/wigs/braids so i try to do it with just my hair. Im learning how to flat twist and it has helped so much. Youre that one UA-camr that I need. Your hair is amazing. I just started really learning how to do my hair. Ive been natural for 5 years with 2 Big Chops (the 2nd was because of color damage). Definitely goals.
Essence Of Tiare Thank you !!! Yes it’s all about learning what’s best for your hair. Even if it was exactly the same as mine you’d still find differences when it come to finding products. It makes me happy to hear naturals learning about their hair & I hope you’re journey continues to go well 💕
Your hair is amazing! Simply Beautiful. You did a great job on this video as well. One of the best hair journey videos I've seen. Very thorough and detailed. New Subbie!
Cenique I’m so glad u enjoyed this video ! I really want to encourage ladies on this journey & let them know the highs & lows and that they aren’t alone in the frustrating moments that come along on this journey. Thanks for watching & subbing ❤️
Honestly I just developed a good routine at the time. I think my initial growth came from just getting rid of those permed ends but everything else was just finding the products that really worked well for my hair & having a consistent routine. I’m actually posting my wash day routine this Friday if you’re interested in seeing what that’s like for me 🥰
Was there any referred Products ? Your hair is beautiful and I’m have the same problem my hair is healthy and I don’t put much heat but can’t get past collar bone length😩
EP TV I have a video on my channel of all the products I use on my hair. It’s quite long but I wanted to include everything I use from shampoos to everything else inbetween. But keep in mind your hair may like some of the products I use & May reject some of the ones I use so it’s all going to depend on your hair. 😊
I’m currently coming up with more natural hair video plans for my channel & I’ll definitely include one of those. I’ve been doing a lot of protective styling but more videos are on the way. 😊
This is lovely. Thanks...and I'd love to get tips on how you were able to retain length. Between is your transitioning years included in the 3 years? Thanks
I came to conclusions if I hadn’t cut my hair last August my hair would be prob past my breast 😭but I’m nvr cutting again. 11 months later I’m literally abt an inch off where I left off ☺️so I’m proud
Wow. Hi. I am transitioning for about a year now. I am not sure what my curl patern is it’s sooooo similar to yours. Which one is it please?. Lovely natural hair journey btw
Thank you for watching love & my pattern is 3c/4a , but also just keep in mind once you actually chop your pattern may be different than what you thought ❤️
@@AmberAlycee I have a significant growth and I'm frequently cutting my relaxed ends. By the curl pattern I can see it's similar to your. I'll be following you for sure 😊😊😊 thank u love

Literally just cut my hair again bc of the 3 1/2 yrs just cut it of 2nights ago and I'm 16 lol
PlayboiMikey Playboi Mikey good luck on you’re journey ☺️
I can’t wait until my hair becomes this long 😍😍😍😍😍 your hair is really pretty
Thank you love ! Time, care, and good routine & you’ll be on your way ! Good luck on your journey ❤️❤️❤️
I want that length too
It’s attainable! A little TLC and it’ll reward you 🥰
@@AmberAlycee is it hard to take care of when it's that long?

Wow! I’m jealous . I’ve been natural almost six years and just made back length. OMG
BRIANA CARLY It’s a hassle sometimes but consistency was key for me lol
You’re doing great don’t be discouraged
Your hair journey is so inspiring.
You've come a long a way. Your progress is wonderful.
The Dynamite Natural ❤️
For some reason, I love shrinkage, and seeing my hair curl to it's shortest state , even though it doesn't help hair retention.
Nancy Jada That’s a really good thing lol! My head shape isn’t made for shorter hair so I was happy when I finally got some hang time 😂
really? i had no idea that’s probably where i’m going wrong cause i never fully stretch out my hair, any tips?
Your hair looks pretty and your progress is amazing
Thank You 💕
I can't believe how your hair is from some of these pics to where it is now..love it
MartyB JustLiving it’s crazy. It really feels like it grew fast looking back lol
Amber Alycee what is your hair type?
Kyia 3c/4a

This is lovely. Thanks...and I'd love to get tips on how you were able to retain length. Between is your transitioning years included in the 3 years? Thanks
Vivian Luke I’m so glad you enjoyed it 🥰 & the three years is when I went fully natural so it doesn’t include my one year of transitioning !
Vivian Luke Also for details on how I retained length you can find that in my How I Grew Long Healthy Natural Hair | 9 Tips to Guaranteed Results! ☺️
Beautiful head of hair
Shannon Armstrong Thank you 🙏
I came to conclusions if I hadn’t cut my hair last August my hair would be prob past my breast 😭but I’m nvr cutting again. 11 months later I’m literally abt an inch off where I left off ☺️so I’m proud
I’m so glad it grew back for you & I bet it’s even healthier now 🥰
Me too! Keep cutting my hair then saying it ain't growing smh
I’m so late to this video but when did you trim your ends during the journey?
I transitioned for a year and then big chopped!
Hello I’m here to support all, hopefully we can stay connected and support each other ❤️
Wow. Hi. I am transitioning for about a year now. I am not sure what my curl patern is it’s sooooo similar to yours. Which one is it please?. Lovely natural hair journey btw
