No one told me that it takes all day to wash and style natural hair just to have it not behave right the following day. Maintaining natural hair is a lot of work.
right ! once i was going out with a friend and i waited 3 hours before i left to wash my hair... took 5 hours 😂 i obviously didn’t go but i definitely learned my lesson
@@SugaBabieT I've been on this journey since 2009, and my hair has definitely changed over the years. No hair is alike. I don't care how many videos are out there. No one has the same type of hair. When you get to my age, you thank God you have hair. I know my hair very well, and when I say it takes a long time to wash, condition or deep condition and put on more than one product to style, it takes me a good length of time. Thanks for trying to help.
Nobody told me that it would take 6 months to separate and fluff your hair out once you take down a twist out or a braid out. UA-cam make it look so good lol
The comment about having to do your hair 24 hours before an event and having to plan an hour to take it down!!! This is one of the reasons I need for people to give me advance notice that they want to go somewhere. I love what the humidity does to my curls in the summer! No one told me that my hands would look like I've been in the tub for 2 hours after styling.
Girl, I wish 24hours worked for me. In the summer, I can sit under the dryer to speed up the drying process. If I sit under the dryer in the winter, my hair and scalp will be dry and itchy. Nobody told me I would need two days advanced notice before an event in the colder months because it would take two days for my hair to dry. :-)
I felt it when you talked about drying time and flakes. My hair can take 2-3 business days to dry and then you wanna flake and have build up when we use our favorite products? I spend all this time growing it and taking care of it to get this type of disrespect 😂
Nobody told me that I would have three different hair textures. Each texture likes different products. Nobody told me that my hair would be so picky. Girl, keep it 100! The struggle is real.
"I know I wasn't looking like this all day" . Just this week this tragedy happened to me. Let's all give each other some grace when we see it because we all know this happens
Detroit Stand Up, What Up Doe No one told you natural Hair is like a box of chocolates , you never know what you going to get when you unravel those braids and twist.
Nobody told me I would spend hundreds of dollars on products that don’t work. In Kandi’s voice from Real Housewives of Atlanta, “the lies, the lies.” Only a handful of them would work for me. I finally came to the conclusion as far as styling products I will stick to what I know works. I’m ok with cleansers, shampoos, co-washes, conditioner, deep conditioners and pre-poos but as for me and my house we gonna just leave them stylers in the store or on line. It’s a wrap.
This was a great video, I laughed all the way through it. Especially the young lady who said she left home looking like Dianna Ross and came back home looking like Samuel L. Jackson. I did not get my 1st relaxer until I was in my late 20's, now I am much older and I don't remember doing an eighth of the stuff I have do to my natural hair now. Back then I would shampoo, condition, put it in plaits (not braids, go to sleep take it down the next day and go about my business (grant it, it would be still damp but that didn't matter, it still looked good). If I did that to my hair today, I would look like a wet haired Buckwheat. No one told me that your hair texture can change as you get older.
Dont have kids with thick natural hair to along with yourself trying to get ready for an event. It takes a week to get ready period. Call me on Monday for an event on Saturday I need time to think of our hairstyles.
@@Mrstyra16572 Girlllllll I am really struggling with detangling for sure. It took an hour last wash day. I fear the longer and thicker my hair gets the more time-consuming it will be. Despite all that, I do love my natural hair and will never go back to perming.
@@tmt436 if you’re interested I just found the best detangling pre poo, it’s the African pride aloe and coconut pre poo. I de tangled my hair in like 15 minutes. I highly recommend😭
I feel like one the things I have learned during my journey is the amount of time it takes. Every two weeks I have to take about six hours on my hair. Natural hair definitely is not a rush and go job. It works for me because I am also a homebody. I can imagine someone who is busy can't do that and May just throw a wig on
Keep it real....yes pain is real...products now say they do something it's a Lie...now you've wasted your money...bring natural cost more than being relaxed...but I'm stuck with the natural world cause of my health...thanks for sharing sis.💯💯🤣💞
We should get paid because natural hair care is a lot of work. It takes 2-3 days to wash, dry, moisture and you have to wait the next day for your hair to act right. It’s like planning a whole week! Smh 🤦🏽♀️
No one tells you that when you have 4a-4c hair needs to be LEFT ALONE. retwisting everyday or every few days gonna have you bald headed and stressed. No one tells you that when you learn a style and master it, STICK TO IT, it’s how ur hair grows and stays healthy for me, rollerset, coils and mini twists are where i gotta stay...i need to stop experimenting. No one tells you certain styles will break ur hair off. No one tells you healthy hair won’t stay straight in ANY humidity...any...
Girl!! I didn't grow up with head scarfs, my mom and sister never wore them. I didn't even know how to wrap them. But NOW?! LOL, I'm a pro hahahahha That and I got very excited when I could finally do a sleek bun or pony 🤭
Janae you are SOOOO FUNNY!! Yep to the product junkie yep all the products yup I be wanting the new new too!! Yep to other people’s hair growing faster than ours!! HOW MANY TIMES HAS WHITNEY CUT HER HAIR,!!! AND I STILL AINT CAUGHT UP 😩😩😩
Nobody told me that by the time I wash and do my 3 girls hair the tiredness takes over and I be like oh what the heck, at least my kids hair looks good. I can wait another week
No matter what, my daughter’s wash and styling takes at least 2 and 1/2 to 3 hours. Then my mother in law will make annoying comments like wow you still doing her hair😡🥴
For me it's the fact that I find the perfect combination and then my hair changes or the same product combinations have a different effect a year later. It's literally an ongoing process. This year I moved to an area with hard water 😭 and none of my products seem to be working. I come home every weekend, so I plan my wash days when I'm home instead.
Some women don't know their hair , some women would ask me what products I will tell them I don't know and I was born with natural curly hair it would curl when I was perm. Thank you explaining the grind of natural hair and it the journey to see the end of the results.
Look up blackgirlcurls. You can have a simple hair routine that takes 2 hours or less. Natural hair doesn't have to be hard or a struggle for you to find something that works.
Janae🤣 .. girl luv this video 💕🥰.. yep I sure wanted a perm especially when I unraveled my twist out and was looking like Prince Daddy from Purple Rain 😳..
Valuable information. I have been natural for years and my hair definitely thri es more when it is up in protective styles. My hair gets way too dry and she's more when manipulated too much.
She is so beautiful, professional, balance, bold, daring, intelligent and confident The lady is in control of the situation Nubian princess Her eyes are so hypnotic, exciting, alluring, mysterious and confident I love her so creative, imaginative and talented just mesmerizing 🕊️⚡👏☮️🎇🌈🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The humming is necessary! 😅 I totally remember not giving myself enough time to let my hair set. Then the next day having a near panic attackcrying in the mirror at the results!
When I left Florida to move to Georgia nobody told me I would experience all 4 seasons! Florida we get a splash of Winter and Summer for the rest of the year. Georgia 😳 snow flurries, 20 degrees, WIND, and not to mention the hard water! My hair just said ✌🏾 I’m out 😂
I'm from Florida born and raised. But that heat and humidity is no joke. I live in Missouri now. I want to move. Just not back to Florida. I like all 4 seasons. My hair and the skin on my hands beg to differ.
@@EmorettaRobinson I’m not gonna lie I miss home so much! My skin/hair has taken a beating 😩😂 I’ve gotten the moisture back in my hair so far but need to work on the skin part. However I miss the sun this cloudy cold weather needs to move out the way. I just might go back to Florida for the beaches 😎
I want to try color so bad but I refuse to go backwards 🙅🏾♀️ healthy hair is a must. I’ll get braids or something in the colors I want to dye my hair🤷🏾♀️
I am in TEARS I laughed so hard watching this! I needed this today cause chawl my hair been trippin trippin lately. Nice to know we all living the same life LOL
Thanks🤣🤣🤣very relatable.Thought I was the only one with weird hair that does whatever it wants to do or wants"not" to do,not knowing or thinking you know what products will work....cause they worked in "their" hair,frustrating and just being tired of hair in every way possible,thinking of the white stuff(perm).Good to know I'm not alone.All of this was so on point!!!😝💞
I don't mind my natural hair with heat. Natural hair in the summer is a whole mood lol. When I had relaxer in the summer it would just be all sweaty and drippy and possibly puff up... but then again I'm in all this VA humidity 🤣
My hair be like "what we tryin today?" Lol- yessss...so many products to choose from especially when you go hard on Black Friday like meee. You are hilarious! Love this video and your channel🤟🏾❤️
I felt this entire video down to my soul! 😣😫 I started over 12/26/19 and said I was gonna keep it short...then covid hit...but at least I've controlled my spending on products!
I do not like wearing my hair out in the summer because of the humidity. If a wash n go fine but a twist-out nope. Definitely have to switch up routines when the seasons change. I mixed do different diy butter creams for my hair. One my aloe vera and shea butter in the summer. Much lighter for the summer. Fall/winter and spring i can still use my thicker butter cream mix but use it sparingly for the spring. Lol I love my diys. I make enough shampoo, deep conditioner, leave-in and butter cream for at least 2 to 3 months. My hair takes 2 days to dry. Yassss 90% of the time you're detangling. That why I protective style every 2-3 weeks now. Rarely have my hair out. Unless it's straight. Still loosing bobby pins hear and there.
This video is hilarious and true! I looked at a picture of my hair last year and I feel like it’s still the same length...I be looking at pictures of others with massive hair growth in 3months...How sway🤷🏾♀️😂😂😂
I watched a video yesterday a hair stylist was putting two strand twists into her clients head. Two things stood out to me. 1. She never picked up a comb to part the hair. She said even she drops the combs and the parts look more natural without using a comb. 2. She said people get upset because their hair experiences shrinkage. But if you don't have some shrinkage then it's because you have heat damage. I was like "Ohhhhh!" I won't lie. I have washed my hair that was stretched out at bra strap length. But after washing it I looked in the mirror and it was above my shoulders. I have said out loud to my hair:" You have the audacity to shrink up on me like this? The nerve of you!" Now I don't know if the shrinkage versus heat damage thing is true or not. I just know that I had never heard it before. And it made me feel better about my hair. I was straight up wondering (for years) what was wrong with my hair or what I was doing wrong? So a part of me hopes what she said was true. Nobody told me just how real shrinkage is out here in these natural hair streets.
Oooo I still want a relaxer too lol. I’m like these hairstyles don’t stay for me, my hair don’t lay like I want ugh!!!! But I still haven’t gotten one.
It’s the long dry time for me. I’m predominantly type 4 and I have perfected the wash and go for me the drying time is long and grueling. I have to hop under a dryer for 30 minutes and then diffuse for another he plus. It takes more time to dry than do my hair😫
I still be in the kitchen making concoctions sometimes lol that mayo egg and olive oil really be doing some for me girl as a hair mask when my hair has just had enough of being played with
New stubby alert. JaNea from ATL here, hey girl hey!!! (Every JaNea I come across is super cute n live lol love it) I'm natural but keep braids or sew ins. I'm trying to embrace wearing it out. Currently on day 2 of my braid out. Thanks for that nighttime routine vid!
Not your hair playing you and suddenly wanting to flake up 😩😩. Literally just happened to me. Did a wash and go last night and woke up to a snowstorm and had to rewatch this morning. Why my hair do me like that man??
Nobody told me I didn’t have to chase definition and could just chill and wear afros and puffs. Nobody told me you can wear your hair stretched without heat and not seek definition. Nobody told me you could just use the same two products forever and your hair will be fine. Nobody told me water makes your hair more malleable BUT more fragile and sometimes it better to detangle dry. Nobody told me drowning your hair with oil right before you wash it is counterproductive. Nobody told me the cup porosity test is not scientific and is very flawed. Nobody told me you could have a full hairline and have NO baby hairs.
Okay, but WHY didn't NOBODY TELL ME that you gotta get up like 4 hours before you go somewhere to account for taking your hair down and the possibility of it not being dry?
Chile no one told me stop trying to do my hair when it’s not freshly washed! I tried to try some temporary color and it was like what twist out, what color, and heeey flakes lol
You hit alot of good points for and I have been natural since 2013. I have had alot of setbacks with my hair. I'm thinking of doing a BIG CHOP. I want something different right now. I don't know what to do with it anymore 😣
Girl. I loved this video! It’s was so real! It funny too. Girl you had me in Stitches! Every thing you said was so right. Thank for such an amusing video. Lol
I just went natural for the first time since I was 16 (I'm 35 now) back in October. Besides dealing with dryness (which I solved), I don't really have a problem with my hair. I think it's easier to do/maintain than my relaxed hair 🤷🏾♀️. Plus it's sooo freeing since I don't have to fear water. I'm curious how it will be in the humidity this summer though. I mainly just wear it in an afro, so I guess summer won't be bad either.
My current situation....I actually went back to a perm only to start transitioning back to natural and cutting all the perm out. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL ! ! ! 🥴🤦🏾♀️😂😂
Girl that’s mmeeeee this natural hit is just killing me. Wash days are challenging, sometimes products don’t work I’m thinking of cutting off and start over. Braids --- big headache can’t win
Nooooooo SIS!!!!! When you said, I know I wasn't looking like this aaalll daayy???!! And you be at work in the office not taking no break tryna hustle, so you never see your hair has changed from how it was when you left the house that morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! I even got a ridiculous looking dl pic for that VERY REASON!!! Thought my hair was still cute!!! By the time I got to the dmv, that jont was shrunk up, fizzled and looking FRIED N TIRED!!!!!!!! OH FOR SHAME!!!! 😒😑😔😬
Nae, I live in Hawaii (military spouse). Baaaabby! As much as I LOVE island life, I find that I can't FULLY enjoy it. Girl evening THINKING about going to the pool or beach is like 🥴😖😵. Ain't no spontaneity whatsoever. I gotta make sure my style is old enough to risk destroying and make sure I am ready to commit to a wash day immediately after 😤 - that's with or without a swim cap. And let's not even talk about trying to workout consistently. I know veteran naturals do it. But for us in the "thick of it," establishing a new workout routine... just embrace the frizz sis cause you will be puffy in the roots boo.
Natural hair is a lot of work but would not trade it for the world

Only for it to look good for 3-4 days if that. 😂 Or at least that’s how it is for me.

I get more compliments the older my styles are.

Not 2-3 business days! lol but yes girl our hair be trying it!
Girl.....i don’t even bother air drying....hooded crier ONLY. I’ll never lol.

Yes so real 😩 I felt this comment!
No one told me that a wash and go is really a wash and stay home for several hours and then you might be able to go 12 hours later.

I do not like wearing my hair out in the summer because of the humidity. If a wash n go fine but a twist-out nope. Definitely have to switch up routines when the seasons change. I mixed do different diy butter creams for my hair. One my aloe vera and shea butter in the summer. Much lighter for the summer. Fall/winter and spring i can still use my thicker butter cream mix but use it sparingly for the spring. Lol I love my diys. I make enough shampoo, deep conditioner, leave-in and butter cream for at least 2 to 3 months. My hair takes 2 days to dry. Yassss 90% of the time you're detangling. That why I protective style every 2-3 weeks now. Rarely have my hair out. Unless it's straight.
Still loosing bobby pins hear and there.
Ugh your hair is flourishing so nicely!!
That transition again line was a sermon for me!
This video is hilarious and true! I looked at a picture of my hair last year and I feel like it’s still the same length...I be looking at pictures of others with massive hair growth in 3months...How sway🤷🏾♀️😂😂😂
Me too smh 🤦🏽♀️
I watched a video yesterday a hair stylist was putting two strand twists into her clients head. Two things stood out to me. 1. She never picked up a comb to part the hair. She said even she drops the combs and the parts look more natural without using a comb. 2. She said people get upset because their hair experiences shrinkage. But if you don't have some shrinkage then it's because you have heat damage. I was like "Ohhhhh!" I won't lie. I have washed my hair that was stretched out at bra strap length. But after washing it I looked in the mirror and it was above my shoulders. I have said out loud to my hair:" You have the audacity to shrink up on me like this? The nerve of you!" Now I don't know if the shrinkage versus heat damage thing is true or not. I just know that I had never heard it before. And it made me feel better about my hair. I was straight up wondering (for years) what was wrong with my hair or what I was doing wrong? So a part of me hopes what she said was true. Nobody told me just how real shrinkage is out here in these natural hair streets.
Loved it. This was so right. I always look like a different person by the end of the day. Lol
Right?! lol
Yes😂😭😂
Girl, you got me hollering! So funny!
They also dont tell you that its a process before your start curling
True true!
Sally just had a 4 for 20 sale 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Yes and I bought shampoo and conditioner I did not need. Shame on me, SMH!
Nobody told me that you had to learn how to trim your own ends
Especially with last year!
😂😂
Oooo I still want a relaxer too lol. I’m like these hairstyles don’t stay for me, my hair don’t lay like I want ugh!!!! But I still haven’t gotten one.
Love the shirt!!
Thank you!!
It’s the long dry time for me. I’m predominantly type 4 and I have perfected the wash and go for me the drying time is long and grueling. I have to hop under a dryer for 30 minutes and then diffuse for another he plus. It takes more time to dry than do my hair😫
Definitely felt you about the summer and thinking real quick about putting a perm the most. That humidity is not cool
The longer my hair gets the more the tangles and single strand knots.
Great video!!! Your hair looks amazing!!!
I still be in the kitchen making concoctions sometimes lol that mayo egg and olive oil really be doing some for me girl as a hair mask when my hair has just had enough of being played with
Virginia weather is the same way....you could have all four seasons in one day messing around with VA weather...
Girl I felt that wash & go during the summer. " You can forget it " 🤣🤣🤣🥴
New stubby alert. JaNea from ATL here, hey girl hey!!! (Every JaNea I come across is super cute n live lol love it) I'm natural but keep braids or sew ins. I'm trying to embrace wearing it out. Currently on day 2 of my braid out. Thanks for that nighttime routine vid!
Lol the "hold my hand" was my fave! 😂😂😂
Nothing but facts and real life...and thank you because yes I do think about perm
😂😂😂😂I went weak @ " you're still losing Bobby pins and scrunchies?!?!"
Not your hair playing you and suddenly wanting to flake up 😩😩. Literally just happened to me. Did a wash and go last night and woke up to a snowstorm and had to rewatch this morning. Why my hair do me like that man??
Nobody told me I didn’t have to chase definition and could just chill and wear afros and puffs. Nobody told me you can wear your hair stretched without heat and not seek definition. Nobody told me you could just use the same two products forever and your hair will be fine. Nobody told me water makes your hair more malleable BUT more fragile and sometimes it better to detangle dry. Nobody told me drowning your hair with oil right before you wash it is counterproductive. Nobody told me the cup porosity test is not scientific and is very flawed. Nobody told me you could have a full hairline and have NO baby hairs.
Exactly 👏🏾
Okay, but WHY didn't NOBODY TELL ME that you gotta get up like 4 hours before you go somewhere to account for taking your hair down and the possibility of it not being dry?
Chile no one told me stop trying to do my hair when it’s not freshly washed! I tried to try some temporary color and it was like what twist out, what color, and heeey flakes lol
You hit alot of good points for and I have been natural since 2013. I have had alot of setbacks with my hair. I'm thinking of doing a BIG CHOP. I want something different right now. I don't know what to do with it anymore 😣
Girl. I loved this video! It’s was so real! It funny too. Girl you had me in Stitches! Every thing you said was so right. Thank for such an amusing video. Lol
I just went natural for the first time since I was 16 (I'm 35 now) back in October. Besides dealing with dryness (which I solved), I don't really have a problem with my hair. I think it's easier to do/maintain than my relaxed hair 🤷🏾♀️. Plus it's sooo freeing since I don't have to fear water. I'm curious how it will be in the humidity this summer though. I mainly just wear it in an afro, so I guess summer won't be bad either.
My current situation....I actually went back to a perm only to start transitioning back to natural and cutting all the perm out. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL ! ! ! 🥴🤦🏾♀️😂😂
same
Pre poo is a must. I use to pre poo an hour before my wash, now I have to do it the night before
YES! With the fingers! I thought it was just me!
The shirt is so cute!
Thank you girllll!!!
Ma’am you are the cutest lol 😂 i feel like we have the same personality. You’re hilarious 🤣
“Am i transitioning again?” Ahaha
Nobody told me that shrinkage is annoying;)
Girl that’s mmeeeee this natural hit is just killing me. Wash days are challenging, sometimes products don’t work I’m thinking of cutting off and start over. Braids --- big headache can’t win
Girl. Always loosing Bobby-pins! Like dang 😂 and yes. I had to start over because of the buns. Satin scrunchies only!
Yes. Transition again. I tried shae moisture no slip line. My hair started shedding nd had to trim 3 inched.
Nooooooo SIS!!!!! When you said, I know I wasn't looking like this aaalll daayy???!! And you be at work in the office not taking no break tryna hustle, so you never see your hair has changed from how it was when you left the house that morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
I even got a ridiculous looking dl pic for that VERY REASON!!! Thought my hair was still cute!!! By the time I got to the dmv, that jont was shrunk up, fizzled and looking FRIED N TIRED!!!!!!!! OH FOR SHAME!!!! 😒😑😔😬
Nae, I live in Hawaii (military spouse). Baaaabby! As much as I LOVE island life, I find that I can't FULLY enjoy it. Girl evening THINKING about going to the pool or beach is like 🥴😖😵. Ain't no spontaneity whatsoever. I gotta make sure my style is old enough to risk destroying and make sure I am ready to commit to a wash day immediately after 😤 - that's with or without a swim cap. And let's not even talk about trying to workout consistently. I know veteran naturals do it. But for us in the "thick of it," establishing a new workout routine... just embrace the frizz sis cause you will be puffy in the roots boo.
