    My grandmother pressed and curled her hair most of her life. She had a head full of hair when she died at 100 a few years ago. She didn't do a bunch of stuff creams and gels and conditioners. Just her little bit of tcb. I just wash and a little cream, air dry. I pick it out. That's it. I have a lot of hair at 60.

    Today is August 18th, 2022 and I love your hair. My hair has a grey patch in the front on the left side and it has been there since I was 22. My hair is growing back from having breast cancer twice. This is the second time that it's growing back. It has grown down to my ear lobe and my scalp is still sensitive because I am still taking cancer medication. I shampoo and condition my hair once a month and I message my scalp twice a day morning and night. I oil it every other day. Thank you for your video. God's continued love and blessings to you.

    I’ve had gray since 16 and now at 48 it’s pretty heavy in the front. I love the gray. I never colored because I noticed how my Aunt’s hair started turning yellow so I decided to embrace the gray. I do have to wash my hair once a week. Working out and my hair is prone to product build up, it must be washed every week. Thank you for sharing.m

    I have basically went through the same experience as u did w ur grey's. And to allow them to grow in has been 1 of the best decision I made. I wash my hair every week and sometimes 3 times a week! My hair loves it and sparkles. I have noticed that my hair has darken up and bright white around my hair line! I actually really love my hair! I never used to say this! I love the tips especially tying ur scarf too tight! I have learned the hard way, lol. Thank you for this video 👑🤗❤️

    I'm not currently having any struggles with my grey curls. I started going grey at 10 but I never used color and only had one relaxer and one touch up and that was the end of relaxers for me. The only thing that I don't do that Keisha does is shampoo only once a month. I usually shampoo every 5 - 7 days, but I don't have as much grey as she does, and my grey doesn't seem to be weak.

    I disagree with not washing gray hair at least once a week. I workout and I sweat in my scalp. I don’t refresh because my hair is washed and conditioned every 4-5 days and it’s hydrated, not dry.

      Yes, of course. This is based on her regimen & lifestyle. We have to all do what we are comfortable with. Taking care of this scalp & hair is a learning process & a well worth it journey....I want to grow my hair to my waist. After going natural 2.5 years ago & only do my hair myself I am still learning through my stages of growth...lil tweeks along the way. Thankful for the experience. All the best!

      Not to mention if you refresh your style and add a little more product(s). In a month my hair would be disgusting... but, I acknowledge that she said according to your preference and lifestyle, so I guess if you don't use styling products decreased washing could work.

    I am a long time natural with grey hair. I do everything you said to be true except washing only once per month. If we use moisturizing shampoos and conditioners that are right for our hair type, it won’t dry out the hair when shampooing weekly. It it takes weeks for the moisture level to return to the hair after a shampoo, you are using the wrong products…

    I loved the advice in this video.
    I only have one competing comment, and it is regarding the result of letting henna go. It should not turn green at any point. It is my understanding that it only does that green thing if it is not pure, natural henna. If the box states that it gives you any color but a shade of red/orange, it is not pure henna.
    I used to henna/indigo my hair. The only complaint I had with it is that the indigo would let go first leaving me with a dark golden brown hair tone if I used thick creams like shea butter. It was hard to moisturize my hair using henna/indigo. I finally got tired of trying to work with henna/indigo as it is an all-day thing.
    Dark golden brown is a beautiful color except it is barely darker than my skin leaving me looking like I have bald spots.

    You may want to check out Irish Moss as a base for styling gel. Irish Moss is a seaweed that can be found dry in health food stores or online. It makes a cool gel, much like Jello, that can be mixed with other ingredients are used by itself. I am still experimenting with it. Right now, I'm using it as a daily hair gel for styling my natural hair.

    I last dyed my hair March 2019. I used gray hair cosmetics like sprays as I transitioned or wore silver gray wigs so I could get used to seeing myself with light colored hair. I always use clear, white, blue and purple products. The white hair is more straight and wiry than my salt pepper so I have to treat different parts of my hair differently. I would never go back to straightening or coloring my hair.

    I've started washing my hair every 2-3 days and then apply only grease. it's more moisturized and way less breakage. the grease that's left on the hair acts like a coating protecting the hair strands from the shampoo so your scalp gets the most cleansing.

    Finally! A straightforward presentation about our grey hair. I have a full head of slowly greying hair, which I wash about once every three weeks or so. Years ago, I lived in Saudi Arabia, and found that I had to spritz my hair with water 3 times a day, lightly applying oil at least once a day due to the extremely dry, hot climate. FYI: Saudi Arabia is a great place to take care of your hair. Since women cover their heads with the hijab(scarf), living there is a great place to work on any hair issues since no one sees your hair anyway. Your advice is spot on. Thank you!
