I have always trimmed my hair for several reasons: 1. It makes it easier to comb, i can literally run my fingers through my 4C hair. 2. It feels healthier 3. It doesn't shed as much 4. You don't even notice the diffrence in length with the small amount you trim. 5. Undoing twists is a breeze! 😌👍🏾
I do the search and cut method. It takes forever but I don’t have kids or a husband so I have time. 😂 I like the search and destroy aspect, it can get addicting actually.
I recently "trimmed" 3 inches off my hair. I've never loved it more I was so frustrated with it at the time, but now my hair retains moisture like crazy. Also it was my first trim, ever
I know I shouldn't be scared of trims, but I need time to talk myself into trimming, and after...it's the best feeling ever. Your nails are beautiful by the way❤.
I have single strand knots all over, I trim maybe every 6m. But my hair/ends are almost never exposed Bc ive always wore a wig. My 4c hair is definitely growing and doing well
I trim 1/4-1/2in every 90days. I go into my calendar on my phone to mark the days every year lol. I still come up 4-5inches per year. I'm happy with that.
Trims are very important. No one is telling anybody to go scissor crazy (our hair doesn’t need that treatment). But end health is vital. I’ve been doing my own hair for years and I’ve just felt comfortable now to find a natural hair specialist. She installs my protective styles (getting my first sew-in next week) but she also did a well needed trim on me. For years I was only dusting my ends and I thought that was fine. I knew something was off about my hair health because I would always experience these single strand knots at the end of my hair and have so much shedding. She trimmed off about three inches of my hair, it’ll grow back at the rate I know my hair grows at best and the health of my hair is back intact! Trims don’t need to be this scary event we dread as naturals 🥰
Omgoodness...this video definitely confirmed that I need a trim. I just didn't want to go to someone that was scissor happy and I also wanted to save money doing it myself. Thank you for posting this video.
I snip my ends every time I do a twist and the ends aren’t to my liking. Not much but just enough to keep the full and healthy. My hair is thriving and growing like weeds
I accidentally found myself doing a search and cut because I could hear the snapping of hair when I combed through it and the ends wouldn't straighten so I took a really close look at them and saw the fairy knots and split ends and Shafts
1) mini twists 2) slipp slipp detangler of some sort 3) finger det from the bottom up first 4) nutrition/hydration inside and out 5) protective style and bonnet, i need to try to tuck my ends before bonnet or scarf, (in a bun or something)
How many times should we trim? For example, I got my hair trimmed this February and wanted to see if I should trim again in May or June? Some people say every 3 months, others say 4-5 months.
I'm always hesitant because I think that the way I've parted my hair isn't that ultra neat (like the pros do) and I might be doing more damage to length and health due to my inexperience. 😔
I'm about to do this now, but my dye-ravaged 4c Afro hair has grown a lot, and I want to retain the length! Probably a trim....Fudge Time Machine hair treatment system actually repairs damaged Afro hair, try it! Also good for really tangled, knotty Afro hair! Add a little Fudge Rewind conditioner before taking out locks and plaits, or tender headed kids, the brilliantly repairing Fudge Rewind conditioner loosens and repairs the poor hair roots!

@GreenBeauty you mentioned you do not like hair threading, my question how long can you wear hair threading styles not the threading of wraping the thread continuously around the hair covering it completing but wrapping where it looks like two strand twist.
Do these split ends form knots on the middle part of a strand? I have crazy spilt ends and some annoying knots in the middle of my hair and it’s sadly eating away on my length! My hair is 6 but looks like a 2 years old, someone help with an opinion or suggestion on what I could do for that pls, thank you
You should use a pair of hairdresser's scissors, preferably not dull. Standard scissors are not sharp enough and so might create split ends on your strands. Just what you want to avoid 😅

👏🏽
Yes, that's true!
I have 4c hair to but I have so many nots and its easier bc I use fingers to get out but hair come out
Facts specially 5 lol
My sister trimmed one inch off and it made such a huge difference. No more knots
I do the search and cut method. It takes forever but I don’t have kids or a husband so I have time. 😂 I like the search and destroy aspect, it can get addicting actually.
It does get addictive, I find all the splits and knots that I can and I have really thick hair 😂
how often do you do it?
Worry about health and the length will follow
U still have to trim
@@Jjjjj-gh2pjThat's what they saying

This video was recommended at the PERFECT time, this was just me literally yesterday. I've bought shears and today is the day.
I definitely am a search and cutter

Relax
I agree with trimming/ dusting ends often. Very helpful in managing them 💚💚
Omg the knots are hell for me! I find myself ripping them out and I know that's damaging my hair ugh !!!!
Knots are an indicator that the hair is severely dehydrated.
Trim that hair
An indicator that the hair is severely dehydrated? Why not hydrate the hair

It's only scary for bald headed people who struggle to grow hair lool
Your hair is BEAUTIFUL 🌹🌹

This was great! Thanks ❤
I keep trimming my ends but I'm still finding split ends and my hair is super hard to detangle still as well.
try using a good condition & detangler
Tangle teezer
Limit combs or try finger detangling
1) mini twists
2) slipp slipp detangler of some sort
3) finger det from the bottom up first
4) nutrition/hydration inside and out
5) protective style and bonnet, i need to try to tuck my ends before bonnet or scarf, (in a bun or something)
My favorite UA-camr very smart lady
One of the best explanation..love this.. Thank you Greenbeauty..❤😂🔥👏

This sounds like an add
I be dusting the heck out of my hair hahahahaha. I said shoot, I might as well keep my hair scissors on me because I'm always needing to cut something
Beautiful and knowledgeable thank you Greenbeauty
Very good to know thank you ❤
God bless you all
I heard that Curly cuts are bad but since these are trims is it okay to curly trim since we are not cutting much off??
It’s the pretty face at the end!!

Keep your hair in twist or a satin scarf at home. Keep it hydrated and stretched without heat. You're welcome auntie. Ghana?
My hair tangles and knots are so bad all the time, and im not patient with it at all.
Too late, I am already there. I know when I finally wash my hair I will need to trim. Do you have to use specific type of scissors?

That’s what’s going on with hair it long but my ends are Spell leading
But 😢my hair is uneven and iont know where to cut😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩
Cutting your hair in twists is a TERRIBLE idea
Mine is beyond salvation at this point 😂
You and me both,but hell at least we can laugh about it😂
