This man takes no prisoners, but speaks nothing but facts. "Tore Up Style" took me out. 🤣
😂 I came here to type this, I'm dying haha
Cue the sirens 🚨 in the background 2:10 🤣
I feel attacked! 😉 😉 😂😂🤣🤣🥹🥹🥰🥰 💇🏽♀️
I was laughing hard. 😂
He is hilarious 😂
I felt bullied every time I told someone how often I washed my hair (every 1-3 days) and so I experimented not washing my hair for weeks. I was told 4c hair doesn’t need to be washed often, just put away and moisturized. After 10 months I see what works for some doesn’t work for me and I’ve lost several inches of hair listening to other women.
I kept my hair in twists for 3-4 weeks this year thinking it was a protective style and it definitely locked on me several times. After 10 months of experimenting I now have broken damaged hair and need a haircut so bad. You’re right about blowing out the hair before styling is key to protective styles. I went back to washing my hair every 2 days and what a difference it made in the softness and texture of my hair. This video hit at the right time because I was thinking the same thing earlier this week when assessing my hair.
@@naarahlloyd-nf6ps I’d say do what works for you. You know your hair better than anyone else. I have to wash off the products (leave-in conditioner, styler, edge control) for my hair to absorb water. Just spraying water and adding more product only causes build up and dry hair making it look dusty. NOT black and shiny how I like it.
In the past I’ve been told “for someone with nappy hair, it shole is shiny”🙄. I was thinking yeah jerk because I put water on it. 😂
@@Cocoflower528gurrrl, I am right there with you. I also need to wash at least twice a week. I have to add that I found soap aloe growing in the garden. Nobody planted it, it's just there and multiplying like weeds. So I have started washing my hair with the gel. So washing hair very 2-3 days is no bigge for me. I lose volume and definition of I just spray and add product.
Well now I am having to cut most of my hair off now. Like you, my regime was Wash/deep condition on Sunday and Co wash with a conditioner on Wed. I too, had people telling me I was washing my hair too much cause "black people don't need to wash our hair that much" WRRROONNGG!!!!! I went from soft, growing hair to broken hair all the way up the shaft. Like
Anthony just said, I now what 1x a week, use a conditioner and leave in, oil my hair with black Jamaican castor oil and plat it up WET. When I take my hair down its a tangled mess. I recently went to a stylist to flat iron my hair and give me a trip and almost fainted when I felt the texture, and saw the thinning and broken hair all the way up my shaft. I am cutting it tomorrow not low like a man but damn near and letting it grow and trim trim until all of the broken hair is gone. I am going to go back to 2xs a week wash and use the suggestions Anthony just gave and maybe by summer I can see length and healthy hair again. My hairs is 4b on top and 4c in the back, brown and dry! Today is 12/3/23 wish me blessings in my journey! It'll all be ok....
@@veganista5096 I hope this hair routine is a learning experience that future generations won’t have to endure. I’m sick right now so I wash every 3-5 days and it still works. Another thing I found out is that using coconut oil and brushing my hair with a soft boar bristle hair brush before washing detangles my hair and I have little shed hair no bigger than my thumb nail for every wash. I walk around with a big Afro for 15 minutes before showering but the hair easily detangles with my fingers or comb and shortens my washing time significantly.
Wow. He made me reflect on a protective style regiment. Leave in, moderate heat, and essential oils. Thanks for sharing.
The repeated use of ‘tore up style’ has me cackling at 3am 🤭🤣🤣🤣
I'm so glad you are back sharing your wisdom and experience.
Not the tore up style😂😂
I know 😂
Facts… Stop coming out the house with your hair tore up and say your natural so it’s ok🙄
The point you made about protective styles seriously resonated with me. How true it is that our hair should be better off after the protective style than before. Just hiding away damage isn't solving the problem. We need to be 'intentional' about our hair care.💆🏾♀Lastly, acknowledging that not everyone can practice wash-and-go styles and suggesting tailored regimens for different hair types was just what many of us needed to hear! Thanks again for all the valuable information you've shared! Anyone looking to start or improve their natural hair journey should definitely watch this video!! Love this channel!
I wash my daughter's hair, 9 years old, every 2 to 3 weeks, blow dry it, put her hair in plaits and beads, and moisturize it once or twice a week. Her hair is thick and long. There are some parents who ask what I do to her hair because they want to get their daughter's hair long and thick too. Guess what they do? Put their daughter's hair in braid extentions for months, and that's it.
The siren after the “tore up style” 🤣🤣
Thanks for the tips babe! A tore up style..chile! 😂
Thank you! I am 56 and grey natural 4c, and this is really good information. We can do both. Let me get my hair to grow and glow some more😊😂
My hair is tore up but that’s another story but I love that he loves black women.
A tore-up style 😂😂😂!!
Gotta love Dickey😘😍!
Well, that answered all my questions regarding my hair.
I love twists, but more than a week, and yes it will start to lock on me😅
I know a couple people that do the exact routine mentioned in this video, and baby, their hair is growing and FLOURISHING.
I get mine done weekly!!!!
And not too small!!! I do not want locs or the look of a loc… just the growth lol
Dickey, all your videos are amazing but this is my favorite. I was late to finding your content but since I’ve found it and started following your advice - for type 4 hair l, I’ve seen improvement in my natural hair. Thank you so much for spreading this knowledge and helping to educate ladies like me who were never taught how to properly care for type 4 hair. I just bought some of your products and can’t wait to use them. Thanks ⭐️
New to your channel; thank you for giving awesome advice!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
What you said about washing condition and blowing is SO true. I realized it!
25oz bottle!! I thought you were gonna say 16 🎉🎉🎉
Glad Dickey is back, consistently.
Thanks for the advice.
Thank you for a great tutorial. I really appreciate all that you teach us.
Im delighted that you allow for blow dry and soft press . Thats my regiment and I have healthy hair.
Thank you so much.
Yessss!! Once you get a manageable regiment that fits your hair....stick to it!! It may take time, but try not to neglect your hair....make itt like a spa day for yourself ❤❤❤❤❤
I absolutely love daily wash and gos for my fine 4 B hair ❤ Thank you for educating us !
I love love this information. Thank you Anthony. I have to listen to this again,
I absolutely love this video. Very needed ❤
Thanks for this informative piece
I’m just finding this video! However it’s a super validating video. A few months ago I started blowing my hair dry, prepping it for hydration and then doing a protective style and my hair has flourished! I used to have so many knots and tangles when twisting my hair wet.
This is a wealth of information. Thank you sir.
I love seeing you and you haven't aged a day handsome ❤
I ❤️you for always telling the truth setting all the textures straight! I have been taking your advice more than 10 years and you helped me to love and master my texture of hair! You sir helped me master a wash and go! Thanks for all you continue to do for all the textures!
I just found you!! But I am definitely washing my hair daily to have moisturized hair!! Ty❤❤❤God Bless!!
Thank you for this, because I just had nearly four inches cut while getting a trim in October because it was too long and I don’t like it on my back, but now that I know how to PROPERLY wash and go my long thick 3C-4B hair.
Thank you so much for sharing your methods and knowledge! I am going to add blow drying to my regimen. I am very excited to do a new type of regimen for me.
So I Just found this guy. As a former educator and a master stylist, I learned something today. This man is spot on and I am so glad he is debunking some of these cultural issues that have come up in our hair society. I will be watching for more. Thanks.
Thank you this was very helpful great tips 👍
Awesome sir! Just awesome!❤
*cries in canadian* I would love love love to try your leave in cream but I don’t have access to it here. I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your advice. I started following your advice about 3 weeks ago and my curls have never looked like this before, and they only get curlier every wash day.
Love you! Pls keep doing these!!! Totally helps! I just took my hair out of 8 years of SL. Yess!! Took them out!!-another story!-! Loving my hair “free” again, really paid attention to creating my regiment and my hair and I are so happy!!! It is doing what it’s supposed to do, feels so nice to the touch now that I use my products CORRECTLY!!! Love you, Sir Dickey!!!!😀😀. Thanks for videos like these, seriously.
I recently did a big chop and wanted to know what low-maintenance regimens I can do for my hair. Now I have this and the wash & go. I am glad to have found your channel. God bless you!
Just found this channel and I'm like..🤯..... distraught bc all this time I mightve been doing my hair wrong. It would be no wonder why it hasnt retained any length. When I WAS happy with it, I recall I was cowashing daily with tons of conditioner, at minimum, and oiling it down.
Blow drying while oiled up is a mind bender though,lol...but I will give it a go.
Interesting stuff, thanks. I'll give an update at some point.
Thank your for the truth about those dry-axx twists. 😄They were so pretty and shiny when wet but when they dried the hair broke at the very ends in a couple of days. I still have my old pressing comb and will be doing a warm press.
I think the key is daily 3 step moisture and weekly maintenance. I never keep my twist longer than a week , moisturizie daily, and my hair is growing like crazy
4b/c girlie
i cant wait to try your no sud products! i even recommended two friends, who is also planning to try aswell . i have 4c hair. thanks for your advice
Thanks for sharing!!
Ok 4c I really don’t know what my hair is because I have wavy curly and wooly textures. Anyway, I can go 2 days before I wash n go again. I Love your products.
I just love you Dickey❤ it’s clown central but a person can’t get mad when it’s the truth Lolol
Very thorough thanks
I just love you!!!!
When I don’t do wash and go styling, I blow dry my hair each time on low with a comb and my hair sheds less because it detangled and I’m able to manage it.
Yesss this is what I noticed it's so true , or protective style with hair that has been washed and stretched a bit
Interesting ! What is your hair type ? How do you style it after the blow dry ?
Yeah, he's good.
I wear two strand twist all the time because it last, but sometimes I want to take the twists out but my waves and curls don't last and it becomes a lot of work, I have several 3's & 4's types in my head, I need a method that protects the hair strands and stays moisturized without losing my waves & curls. I'm not afraid of water at all. I don't have access to your products and if I did I need to know how to layer them. Help Me
He was talking to me❤
What do you think about grease?
I have 3c hair and 4 con the back I need help now.
I AM LOCKED TO MY THIGHS AND LOVE IT. NO COMBS, BRUSHES, NO STRAIGHTENING, NO STRESS, PTSD, WASH AND GO! If I swim evert day must wash every day. Co wash is great for that.
Should our hair be at a certain healthy state before consistently doing a weekly protective style…meaning our only sees water once a week? How many weekly protective styles can 4c before having to go back to daily wash and go? Thanks
Whyyyyy did you go to Atlanta AFTER I moved? 😢 I was THIS🫰🏾close.
Freeform locs ... Just wash and separate
Can you leave a rinse out conditioner for a leave in conditioner?
So Dickey saying basically, 4b/c hair MUST blow out after a wash and condition? I think that’s the first I’ve heard that.
Blow dry before any protective style.
@@hairrules very informative thank you! What was the leave in for extremely dry 4b/c?
This actually works I'm promising you!!!
Dickey advocates for wash n' gos every day. HOWEVER, if you have 4b/4c hair. That may not be practical. So instead, you do a whole week of wash n' gos, daily, to get your hair prepped for a protective style. The day of the protective style, you wash, condition w/ a leave in and your scalp oils, then blow it out. Then you put it into your protective style. So now you can go up to 4 weeks with it, in that style, before you take it down and go back to wash n' gos for another week to recondition
Can a shrinkage afro be a protected style ... My hair shrinks 💯%
Dickey, thanks so much for these videos-I’m so excited that you’re back! I would truly appreciate it if you answer my question! How can one retain length on hair that is 4a/4b high porosity with extremely fine hair strands?
Treat your hair like your favorite cashmere sweater. Don't use shampoos that lather or suds and use a copious amount of conditioner. Co-wash as much as you can. Get a haircut every three months.
@@hairrules thanks so much for responding!! I appreciate the advice!
@@hairrulesThank you 😊 I need to start trimming my hair !
Yay!! 24 oz
What about the porosity of hair. I have 4-B hair and holding in moisture is so hard
Do you use creams or oils a lot? If you do and it's still dry it may be low porosity
Hello,
If one just wants a trim does it matter if one go to a Beauty School or a Salon ?
Hope to get an answer.
Either way, thank you!
A beauty school may provide you with a student, who is usually under supervision, but that may take much longer than having it done by a professional in a salon.
@@hairrules thank you for your response 🙂
Can we use the cream instead of the leave in conditioner? I don’t really understand the difference in purpose. I do use a rinse out conditioner, but then I apply your styling cream. No leave in. Thank you. ❤
By cream do you mean Hydrating Finishing Balm? That works too ❤
@@hairrules I use the kinky curly cream! right after my rinse out conditioner.
Should you style your hair in a wash and go in the cold months
Why not?
Can a twist out be a protective style?
Of course
Whenever I do a wash and go, I see products seating on top of the hair. What should I do
Following
@@shontapl wym babe
Change products! Use a mousse and lighter products !
@@christy7516 sometimes my thick styling cream doesn’t seat on top of the hair but I low-key wanna try using a mousse in my hair care,
I have low porosity, 4b hair. I use my microwaveable steam cap to prevent products sitting on top of my hair. It may work for you.
He just dragged me a new one.…let me get my life together
