That tip about redoing your braids every weeks and not doing it all at once is about to be a game changer for me ! Thank you !
I love how passionately you speak about loving natural hair.
Thank you! It is def. a passion for me!
You're right sis, everything you said is just what society has made us to believe. For me I've made peace with the fact that my edges will not always look well laid, neat and all that society expects it to be and so am not bothered at all.
I love & embrace my natural hair and it's uniqueness and so far I've been growing my hair longer than I even though it would grow.
Now I know my hair can grow to any length I desire, I'm going to keep doing what's best for my hair and not what people expect it to be.
Thanks for sharing this, I love the passion you have for natural hair🤗🤗
I’m going to start calling you the hair preacher because you speak the straight up truth about how naturals need to view their hair journey.
no comb no brush is so true when i started that's what i was doing , so for 2024 I have decided to go back to that . I am hoping to see the results at end of the year
Excited for your journey!
@@preciousfro I am 😊
Yeah I’m doing no combs, no heat, no added hair protective styles.
Am waiting a year to
You got me when you said " twist outs aren't really protective for you cause you still have access to pull and snug at your ends" that is so me, I constantly pull those knots at my ends when I have twists with my own hair, and I suspect it is why my hair ain't growing😭 I need a tutorial on how to braid my hair cause my stylist sometimes doesn't listen to what I tell her, her concern is to have a clean neat job on my head to attract other clients. Also I need a good tutorial on how to take down my protective style.
After a long search on the natural hair streets, finally found a creator that speaks to all my natural hair convictions. Thank you mama👏
You are so pretty! 😍
Thank you! 😊😊😊
I have and I am still working on my mindset towards my hair. I have seen growth when I stop trying to force it to grow or force my hair to be how I want it to be. I need to appreciate my hair for what it is. Great dating analogy.
Same with mine too
Went to get a snack when the video started thinking it was going to be a long intro. Girl, you just jumped right in! Love it. I just recently learned from a cosmetic chemist that the concept of hair at it's weakest when it's wet does not apply to african hair. As we all know, wet or damp hair is much more flexible and manageable than dry hair. Lab Muffin Beauty takes a deep dive with this one but if you think about it you know that's a hair rule that doesn't apply to us. Take a deep dive and make a myth buster video when you find out. That would be a hit for sure! Great video!
Ive also got my hair in box braids that i redo every 4-6 weeks. Ive retained so much length and its given me the opportunity to try different styles while it’s protected. I moisturize twice a week
Your hair is long and beautiful so it will get a lot of attention. If you were selling a hair growth oil, people would buy it because of your hair. I am so happy that the tips you shared are simple and doable and not based on a 'magic potion.' Thank you. My hair is also type 4: 4A and I have been styling my hair mainly in twists and less frequently in wash and gos which I only used leave in conditioners and creams to achieve. I have never used gels and I think that is the reason I have retained length. I usually finger detangle before using a comb. After watching this video, I may consider just finger detangling. I wash my hair every two weeks. I just subscribed because I am enjoying your content.
Thanks so much for your kind words!
I am so grateful to you & for you. I almost gave up on my hair & was going to shave my head bald because of "hard water" damage. But I'm just going to stop using faucet water and begin to follow what you do and also stop using combs or brushes. I'm not going to give up. You are a God send to me. Thank you & you are very appreciated 🙏🏾💯💜💙💚💛
Great tips .The no combs is my favourite. The first time I tried no combs, it felt weird but I now love it and it has made me fall in love with my natural hair. Thanks Precious, your tips have been helpful. You have demonstrated the finger detangling elegantly. All the best to you!
Thanks so much! Glad it was helpful for you!
I know someone who used no comb or brush but only used her fingers to detangle her hair but she has some knots that will probably have to be cut! I think she should go back to the comb.
She can minimize or aid the knots by
1) Hydrating a little more frequently (mist spray bottle 🌫️
2) Seal hair with an oil & cream or oil & butter
3 Evaluate then Trim split, rough and scraggly ends with proper hair cutting shears 😕💇🏾♀️ throughout the hair by hpulling a small section of hair taut and utilizing search and destroy method and do an even trim at least every 3-4 months after stretching hair via African threading 🧵 or gently lowdrying on low-medium heat or even low flat iron heat.
@truthserum1271 She's not going to do all that! She needs a simple hair plan! All the butters, twists, and braids are overwhelming to her! I'm gonna try and help her come up with something simple! I've heard of a line of products that make detangling easier!
@cindychristian1700 If you figure something out please say🙏I'm having the same issue.
@liwakla350 Curl Peace detangling treatment and their other products are good for detangling because they contain marshmallow root! Also sectioning off the hair in six or eight parts with satin ribbons, then tie the ends together with one ribbon and wash your hair! After rinsing, remove each ribbon and add your detangling conditioner to each section, detangling and doing two strand twists, rinse, and style.
@@cindychristian1700 ah thank you! I'll definitely try this☺
I fully agree with all you mentioned in this video. Thank you for the reminder. At times you know the rules and you get slack and lazy after a while. I used combs only wash days or at times when I want to comb my hair out. To make it fully detangled I learned that our hair can never be really fully detangled. Thank you for that. EYEOPENER!! it is true because I experience that as well.
I am going to stop using combs altogether.
I did a 3 months no comb challenge with Coily dairies 2 years ago and my hair looked thicker and got much longer.
Our hair is not for combing I experience that as well. And when removing protective styles Aloe Vera gel fresh from the garden is my best friend with some distilled or spring water.
So true, I myself sometimes forget about my own rules! Thank you for watching!
I absolutely agree, 100%. If we come to the right mindset about our hair, the best way to handle our hair for the best results will certainly follow. I’ve done everything you suggested in this video and girl…I couldn’t be more excited about my hair! These inches are coming through! 👏😂 You’re doing a phenomenal job with these videos! I certainly appreciate you. Looking forward to more! ❤️🌸
Thank you!! happy to hear that you’re already doing these things And they work for you!
That is a good tip to redo your braids after a month. I never thought of that. I leave braids in for 3 months and I worry about the amount of shedding
These are great tips. I'm good with the edges since I've never slicked them down in the way you mentioned. Smoothing them back with my fingers and tying a scarf on them is the most I've done. Protective styling, well I fail that one. It's a WnG or updo and that's it. Finger combing, I've got that one as well except I do it in the shower on wet hair with conditioner. It's easy because I shampoo every 3 - 4 days so I don't have many tangles.
Awesome, glad you've got a solid routine!
I am so happy to have found you. Something about your space here feels like home. Thank you so much for sharing.💗
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching!
💖✨ I gave up combs and brushes 3 months ago and the difference is: WOW!!!
I will NEVER use combs or brushes again ✨ Please try it. The results are instantaneous!
I totally agree with all your tips ❤ Your images & videos are hilarious. Also you look fantastic today -lovely in white 🎉
Thank you so much for the support!
New sub. I big chopped Jan. 2024 i’m in the “4” category but that’s here nor there. It will be awhile b4 I get some length but I love your hair style. Plz do a tutorial on it. Thx for the tips.
I will def. Be sharing the tutorial soon! Thanks for watching!
I believe mini braids (no extensions) is the best option. Much of the synthetic extensions contain chemicals. Great video and tips though! 👍🏾
Thank you 🙏, we have to embrace our hair and to accept, thanks for sharing 👍🙏
I love it! Your videos get straight to the point with the info we need 🙏🏾
Thank you!! I try! i hate long intros lol
Excellent video:) I only use a big tooth comb, on occasion, to make a part. Love the analogy of letting the hair do what it does, naturally.
Hey @preciousfro what method did you use wash your full scalp before rebraiding your braids? Because when you take the braid down there is usually dirt/product right at the knot where the new growth meets the added hair.
Hey! Yes I still have that buildup when I go to redo my braids. I use my fingers to break apart the buildup and then re-moisturize my hair before rebraiding. Unfortunately I don't have any footage of me doing it but I will be putting in braids in the beginning of June so I will show how i handle that in July!
Hey! I think she was asking how often do you wash while your hair is in these braids. Love this video btw!❤
@@AshW777 oooh , I would typically wash them once a month
@@preciousfrothank you, and you actually did understand my question thanks for answering :)
Have you ever thought about using witch hazel ? It’s a way for you to remove some of that build up little by little without washing your hair(if that’s what you want) you could put some on a small rag or use your fingers to add a little to the area of build up then proceed to moisturize ❤
Yes gorgeous empress! I am back at it, i am sick of hair slow growth suddenly cause i am not using protective styling
Thanks for the love! Hopefully the protective styling can give you the results that you're looking for
These are really great tips thanks for the video ❤️❤️
new here! im a fan!
Im a high school student in my last year of school so i can't do the 4 week take the braid out rule but I told my hairstylist not to relax my hair(I'm transitioning from relax to natural)nor use any gel when braiding my hair and ive gotten some length from doing tht
Thanks for sharing!!
Can you do a video on your night time hair care routines? My edges are thinning and I think it’s from wearing a satin scarf at night so now I’m going to see how it my hair will do with just a satin pillowcase.
im really trying to learn how to love my 4c hair but its so hard, ive had relaxed hair my entire life then as an adult i transitioned to wigs and weaves. im so used to a slick and laid look, i just dont feel beautiful with my natural hair but im tired of feeling like that so i'm transitioning. i just dont feel like natural 4c hair is my aesthetic though which is so sick and twisted to say outloud lol smh
Yup I've def. been there! I feel like anything that is growing out of your head HAS to be our aesthetic, but maybe you just haven't found the style that suits you the most yet, especially since you're early on in your stage. If i were you i would keep watching/following people who have similar hair to you so that you can get some ideas of styles you may want to try on yourself. I know that transitioning is not easy, don't be too hard on yourself for working through this new change!
Can you do a styling video start to finish even in parts, for your current style? Are they loose twits? How many? How long to you keep them in? Do you wash your hair with them? I work a customer facing job and although it shouldn’t matter it does. My clients are high profile corporate executives. So I like styles that are natural but look stylish yet conservative. I have fine, tightly coiled medium density hair and currently wear 200 micro-twists. I’m older and can’t upkeep my hair anymore so went to a stylist. I lost so much hair. I would like to try an easier style that I can maintain. Love your hair and your flair!
Yes! I'm working on that video as we speak, it'll be out in a few weeks!
@@preciousfro That’s awesome. Thank you! ♥️
Have u ever tried coffee oil for you hair and how did it work
Do you blowdry your hair each time you put it in braids? Im still annoyed that stylists now require that and think thats now an additional factor that can cause more breakage.
I usually do, or have it stretched in some way to make it easier for me to braid/section
What is the style in this video? Really pretty
Thank you!! These are called clumps. I’ll be uploading a tiptoeing on it in a couple weeks
Hi if you redo the braids a little at a time how are you cleaning the hair that you are redoing?
But be careful for single stranded knots tho
Awesome video ❤
Thanks for watching!
I struggle to remove shed hair when I finger detangle. I moisturise every two days and still get a lot of single strand knots. I feel I have to use a comb to stop the shed hair from staying in my hair. 😥
Shed hairs can be rough, that's why I limit my finger detangling sessions and I don't try to remove ALL shed hair. There will always be some. I just try to remove the main ones that I can easily pull out but i dont stress myself with trying to get all.
@preciousfro that's helpful, thank you for sharing. 😊🙏🏾
It’s true, it’s simple, but how did you achieve this style ? Is it like the fake bob you did a vid on, but with skinny twist?
I just posted a video that answers your question! ☺️
There is also Fake edges out there! Not all BAD!!!
We need to start throwing away our combs and brush today. I am doing that today
