    Ok, so here’s my hair journey (if anybody cares, lol):
    I’d been getting relaxers since I was maybe 6 or 7. I never really liked my natural hair, it’s 4c and very thick. And on top of that, it was damaged for most of my life, so I never really got to see it’s full beauty.
    The first time I was ever truly proud of my hair was the first time I got box braids in 1st grade. Even though I was teased for them at my pwi, I still loved them.
    I moved to Texas in 3rd grade and stopped getting relaxers (thank goodness) but then I started getting keratin treatments. They made my hair grow, but I completely lost my curl pattern. To the point where I thought my hair was naturally straight! ( it was a sad time)
    But then I moved to where I am now. ( Don’t wanna give my location) I went to a hairdresser that was recommended by my mom’s friend. And lord, she did not know what she was doing! I kept getting the keratin treatments, but she didn’t know how to use the chemicals and ended up messing up my hair even more. To the point where i had hair falling out in chunks!
    I stopped going to that lady, and my mom found the hairstylist that I go to now online. And she’s amazing, knows exactly how to care for curly hair. We had to cut off a lot of the damaged hair, but it’s so healthy now. It’s not as long as it used to be, but I’m learning to love it.
    That was my hair journey, and thanks Kianna for posting this video, it’s good to know I’m not the only one who struggles with loving my natural hair!

    I had the same type of hair but I never allowed myself to have curls and I used chemicals and you know I'm in Kenya, where girls just straighten there their hair always. I damaged my hair so much that it started becoming thinner and thinner and short too. So when I turned 19 I decided to have locs, to let my hair just grow naturally and I take good care of it. I am in love with my hair now and I don't regret having locs. Now i have 1yr and 3mths locs.

    I had my hair braids for most of my life. I would get flat iron on special occasions. I did get perms but in the 4th grade I went natural. I continued to get braids through elementary school till freshman year of high school. My hair was long and that when I started to wear it straight. Lord my hair broke off so bad. But I was so obsessed with length and I didn't want to cut my hair. Biggest mistake. My hair 9th grade to 10th grade is a hot mess. 11th and 12th I didn't use heat and I also keep my hair in protected styles. But my freshman year of college. I got heat damage it so bad it started from the roots. DIDN'T LET FRIENDS FLATIRON YOUR HAIR. I cut all the heat damage off sophomore year. At the end of sophomore year of college I dyed my hair. Currently junior year and my hair has broken off from the color, but I taking way better care. I realized don't get color if you won't put in the time to take care of it. My hair is currently growing and thriving. I made so many mistakes..

    I love that you talk about hair health! I’ve been trying to grow my hair for so long and came to this realization in college of “well why, I hate having a ton of hair on my head and I’m not good at styling it” completely changed my outlook on protective styling for myself. So many hair goals are just imposed on us as young girls it took a long time for me to really examine my life and what’s best for my hair. I’m so much happier now and my hair is too which is all that matters.

    Literally through out all of middle school I straightened my hair and broke off my hair for validation from boys. I lived in a primary white town from 3rd grade until I graduated high school and there was no one who looked like me or had my hair texture. Idk why I felt like I had to fit in but I wanted more then anything to look like the little white girls with their naturally straight hair and the little light skin girls with there inches of loose curls. It took me so long to realize that I will never be happy with myself until I stopped trying to look like someone else.

I was always told my hairs to kinky to handle and that I should perm/texturize to maintain it. Fast forward to now I love my natural hair although the maintainable is quite pricey I won't want to change back for anything. Embracing our natural hair was seem as weird especially since the dolls always used to have straight hair and rollers..... but I'm glad things has changed since then
