- What is the most underrated hair growth secret? Daily protective styling of the hair. Give a thumbs up if you want to learn more about this topic!
Protective styling means keeping your hair up in styles where your ends are tucked away and protected from friction, the elements, and mechanical damage. Historical women must have known this, because although many of them had gorgeous ultra-long hair, they would typically wear it in up-dos every day.
After cutting my own hair off to chin length almost 6 years ago, I changed many things about my hair routine. I have now have grown my hair out to hip length - longer than it has ever been in my life! The biggest change I have incorporated, especially as my hair has grown longer, is daily protective styling of my hair. Make sure you subscribe for more historical hair care content!
Please leave a comment if you want to learn more about protective styles, as it will help determine if I make full length videos on this topic!
Fun fact: Traction alopecia is hair loss that's caused by repeatedly pulling on your hair. You can develop this condition if you often wear your hair in a tight ponytail, bun, or braid. Traction alopecia can be reversed if you stop pulling your hair back.
This is what the Mennonites and Amish have. They always wear their hair up and I've never seen such thin and balding hair until them. It's tragic.
Also a lot of historical Indian women who do tight heavy braids and ancient Chinese womens hair too.
so thats exactly opposite to what she's saying in the video
That’s why there is diffrent types of hairstyles so you don’t pull your hair tightly back in the same way every day.
I've had the opposite result.
Just remember to switch up your protective style if you keep your hair in the same style over long periods of time you will develop traction alopecia. Also it's good to leave your hair out every once in awhile to let air get into your scalp and help dry especially if it's wet
Another tip is to change up how you part your hair to protect roots
She’s not pulling her from the scalp like dumb black women.
When it's wet is about the only time I wear my hair entirely down. As long as it's not too tight, traction alopecia hasn't been an issue for me.
One of the most common questions I get about my long hair is, "What's the point if you always wear it up?" Well, I LIKE the look of it up, and I cannot achieve that without the volume my length gives the look.
I grew up Mennonite, and all the woman have very long hair. The ones that pull it back tight have thinner hair in the front, but it is very long. I have friends whose hair brushes the floor when it's down. I think changing where you part your hair,making sure it isn't tight and not clipping the same areas of the hair every day give the best of both worlds of having long hair but also thick and healthy hair
As a black woman on my natural hair journey, I do the same. my hair is nearly waist length now. If I wear it down for too long I get tangles and breakage. Protective styles for the win.
Omg I bet it's gorgeous!!
At home in India. we were not allowed to wear our hair down for various reasons(considered improper) although I don’t come from a religious or orthodox family. It was only after I started wearing hair down in my mid 20s that I realized I was having a lot of hair fall. Went right back to wearing my hair up and also in braids at night like my mom. It has been very helpful.
Right but what about if one has thin and fine hair and so if they tie it up the volume is very less and therefore just want to let it down all the time?
@@abcxyz2099 it didn’t matter. Whatever the hair type or volume, our hair was always worn up. If you look at most older women in India their hair is never worn down unless someone decides to wear it short. My guess is it would be more of an advantage if you have thinner, finer hair. At least,in terms of preventing breakage and causing even more thinning.
Was looking for this comment
My hair is very long and for practical reasons I wear it in a braid or bun most of the time. If I don't, it will just get in the way of my daily tasks. I don't like my hair to touch the floor or a toilet seat, catch things I walk near, or fall in my way when I try to pick something up. But I do like having long hair. With long hair there is always the option to cut it short, but with short hair you have to wait for years until it gets very long again.
So your long hair is a pet?
You actually look like women from those old paintings. You're so beautiful 💘
Please more protective hairstyles. So very beautiful as well. 😊
Is this the teaser for an upcoming protective styles video? If so, I’m so ready
Yes, my next two hair care videos will be all about protective styles ❤
I agree! I would love to learn more 💕
Yes us black women always wear protective styles . Also we have to keep it oiled as well. Dry crunchy hair is a no no 😂😂
I keep my hair in a bun 80% of the time and it's now long enough to touch the back of my knees.
I'm native american and i have hair thats almost 4 feet long and I almost always wear it in a silk scrunchy or loose twin braids!
I see most people with long hair have such damaged dead ends and my hair is pretty healthy. I just styled my hair bc it would get in the way (it being both thick and long), i never knew it was technically better to keep your hair in certain styles.
I started keeping my hair in a silk bonnet when i sleep too and there's a huge difference ! I slept without it once and my hair felt so dry and brittly but went back to normal when i wore the bonnet to sleep a couple more nights.
My former fiance and in-laws are Native Indigenous and have thicker, fuller hair that grows 5 times as fast as mine. I wish mine did!! You guys have such great hair
4 feet?? Thats absolutely amazing! You take amazing care of your hair
This is exactly why black women keep their hair braided. Our hair gets stressed out being exposed to the elements and dries out or can be unmanageable. Even locs do this. That's why they grow so long. Even when you comb out locs the hair is long
Ethnic hair tends to be naturally drier as well. The general rule of thumb is that the curlier the hair, the drier it is. So ethnic hair that has tight coilly curls tends to be the driest hair, thus also causing it to be more fragile and prone to breaking.
@@kayleighmcgawyep, moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!!
My oiled up hair is sprouting new big tufts!
Tufts is my new favorite word for 2023.
Oiling alone seems to be a game changer!
@@RunninUpThatHillh agree. My hair is getting super soft and shiny. I have lots of those baby bangs and just overall better health and condition. I added Saw Palmetto powder to mine, because also excellent for hair growth.
My hair had an amazing transformation when I started using coconut oil in it and stopped shampooing every day. I just soap around my neck and face daily and spray in conditioner each day, and wash it thoroughly every 3 days, then spray in conditioner (any will do) and then I spray liberal amounts of coconut oil on it and warm the oil with a flat iron. My hair is amazing now and almost down to my lower back. 😀 I do put it up in a loose bun with a scrunchy or pony daily.
PS - don't overheat the oil - around 300-340 so it soaks in right after the shampoo and conditioner. The oil is only after shampoo or it gets greasy and thats not good either. It's so soft now and silky and shiny and I discovered by accident. My hair was dry and over-dyed and bleached and just a horrible mess and breaking and literally falling out in clumps. So much better and easier too. Best wishes!!
Yup that’s why our hair is thriving
I used to braid my hair when I go to gym/play sports in school. I did that because 1. My high ponytail will get in the way and slap my face during a game 2. I will be sweating and sweat makes my hair tangle up so much. But somehow mean girls at school think I'm just doing my hair pretty for the boys at the gym and shamed me for it.
Idiots… jealous whiny people
Jealous insecure azz bitches, they saw your shine got scared and wanted to hinder it. No blame on you cuz it was several ppl vs you.
I have long hair and braid it all the time for jiu jitsu or wrestling it's a comfort thing. You shouldn't have to worry about what the girls said about you braiding your hair. That's just mean of them.
Whether I’ve had my hair up and tucked away or just down for long periods of time, it always grew super fast.
Black woman here. I love your channel. I was trying to rediscover ADOS lost hair culture. This is really helpful
Can you say protective styling? I'm glad you enjoy this buy it makes me shake my head because Naomi Sims, Comer Cottrell, Madame Walker, Cathy Howse & Wanakee had this all figured out again years ago.
@@volitionspark2686 yeah but most sold out and it was lost again. I pull all the information I can find. I oil, feed, and protect my hair. It's a slow process but I'm thankful
@@volitionspark2686 like I said I look all over. Most black hair products (from years ago) were not for black people or seriously damaged their hair. Then I realized most women lost the knowledge of yheir hair. Every nationality in every country. What most women have in common in every culture is oil, fruits, vegetables, nuts, spices, and protein in their hair. Yes everybody has a channel with various things. None talk about the old ways. Some using jheri curl juice and mayonnaise. Few have actual recipes

@@youreverypicture21 Who are you speaking to? This is a platform for free speech & I was offering my opinions to another poster.
I do not care about what you're saying. I've lived all over the world & have seen a thousand frescoes, tapestries, etc. I know ppl BRAID/PLAIT.
Cornrows are our province. I don't need a lesson in that from you.
It’s important to remember that everyone has a terminal length. So no matter what they do some people just can’t grow long hair. Doesn’t matter what protective styles they use-it all
Comes down to genetics.
Meee😭 it takes me 5-6 years to grow it just below my shoulder braids. I swear it takes my former in-laws (who are Native American) less than a year to get the same length. My Arapaho ex-fiance has thick, full, fast growing hair. Like he has better hair than me and yet I take better care of mine. 😭
Yes, I have had some friends who complained about the same thing while I grew my hair down to the butt in our younger days.
No if you get a pic of your great-grandmother I'm pretty sure she will
have hair down her back. There is no woman programed to have short hair
ANYWHERE find me a pic of a woman BEFORE 1920 WITH SHORT HAIR you will NOT find it doesn't exit. No you are too lazy to wear your hair in braids most of the time that's all crybaby.
@milksockets that’s a great length tho, like ideal length
Reminds me of how my mother and great grandmother wore theirs. Germans loved braided hair.
Yep. I'm Canadian but my grandmother comes from a small town in the North and when she was young she used to have hair down to her ankles in braids. When she cut it off (as it was the fashion in the 40's and 50's), she kept the braids in a box and gave them to me. She passed away a few years ago in her mid 80's, but the color and shine of her old braids from when she was just a teenager is still really obvious. In her youth she had the exact same hazelnut blonde hair as me. She was a beautiful lady.
As a South indian, I can tell u the exact same thing
Can agree! Only after i started wearing my hair in a bun did it grow super fast!
But at the same time i also started to eat well and supplement with Zinc. So those might have had an effect too.
I have ankle length hair now. Took me 5-7 years to go from shoulder blade to floor.
I have no split ends. I stopped blow drying my hair, stopped coloring it. I never wear it up. I brush it only a few times a day, if that.
I also have no split ends and I wash and blow dry my hair every day. But that's also because my hair has never been color treated, I braid my hair while washing it and then blow dry it on the cold setting. I also wear it up but in a SUPER loose bun every night.
Haven't cut my hair in over 4 months and don't even need to trim. My trick is to use the Dove unscented soap bar which doesn't strip any oils out of my hair and then once a week, using vinegar and a clarifying shampoo. I cured my seborrheic dermatitis this way too. Interesting that we all have different hair care methods :)
Hey Katherine. I was curious if you ever learned about what women back then did for hair thinning and hair loss? I honestly wondered if they had less thinning and hair loss back then because they didn't eat as many bad foods as us or were not exposed to as much harmful things.
Yes! Also remember that not everyone actually had long or thick hair either. Paintings can be exaggerated by the artist to flatter the model & indicate “ideal beauty standards” of the period. Women regularly kept their own brushed hair to do styles and to make hair appear fuller. Hair was overall long but it varies massively from person to person how long the growth phase lasts. Braided updos especially by varying it daily/every few days will have the greatest benefit. Tight ponytails, tight high buns with just hair ties that are pulling on the scalp, etc won’t protect your hair! But remember too that hair is for fun and your version of beauty, it is temporary and will grow back if cared for, and in my experience, having long hair that has always been very prone to tangled (fine stranded decent amt of hair) for some years now I am definitely getting sick of caring for it and the 30 mins+ of brushing every day 😂
You don't have to brush it every day if you braid it silly, and no women before 1920 DID NOT have short hair at all.
It wasn't a thing it didn't exist! All these ladies with long hair in the video are real just get over yourself! Even their idea of extensions STILL meant you already
had to have 6 to 10 inches of hair just
to get the style of the day that was ALWAYS 10 INCHES PLUS before 1920.
@@DiligoBarba You are the one who hasn't done any historical research if you think no one before 1920 *ever* had short hair. Don't say that and don't make generalizations like that. It's so annoying to see you being such a hypocrite, going out of your way to shame someone you think is lesser than yourself pretending you know everything when you don't. Here's a tip: say something like "in general most women had longer hair" instead of "no women before 1920 DID NOT have short hair at all" because then you don't sound like an idiot
Edit: but to be fair maybe sounding like an idiot is your kink in which case have fun and use protection
Ummm... Let's not ignore the fact that none of this historic hair is dyed or blonde.
Wrooong. They bleached their hair in ancient rome
@@danamuller5016 Too bad that wasn't the point of my comment. Let's stick to the topic and acknowledge that the hair in the video is "virgin" hair, i.e. not treated with chemicals.
@@primadonna2819 ok 🙄🦧
@@danamuller5016 It's a lot to grasp. I understand.
I think the diffirence is food. They all eat organic food
You are stunning!! You hair is too!!
The original "protective styles". This is why a lot of BW wear braids and wigs. Cuts down on time, too, but instead of understanding what they're doing, they're insulted for it, sigh. What a world.
Which is hilarious because we’ve all been wearing wigs for god knows how long. The rich always wore hair pieces. The poor would make them out of brushed hair/cut hair. It’s silly to shame modern bw for what everyone’s ancestors have BEEN DOING. But alas. History gets forgotten unless it’s repeated. Hence why my toddler is told to look up everything if she has a question. No more ignorance. No more excuses either since I’ve got my phone on me 24/7!!
@@-MaryPoppins- Love this for your toddler! 🍻
It's so messed up. People will find any reason to pick on BW in particular, honestly. And ya'll have such beautiful, versatile hair textures too, as you already know.
I need to learn about protective styles. My curls are almost to my mid back when curly. You make a lot of sense about exposing the hair to the elements. I would definitely wear unique styles if I know how to do them.
So my pattern of braiding at night and a loose bun in the day is actually beneficial........ who knew!
I have Lupus and my shoulders are bad, so I started wearing my hair in a ponytail during the day and a bunch at night. I also don't use shampoo, anymore. I only use WEN and I don't need to cleanse but once a week. My hair has grown like a weed and grew over 12 inches in 14 months.
Stay blessed & wish you a great health Sis. 🌷💝
What is WEN ?

I love this info. ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing these videos. I have been really struggling on this subject lately. Thank you kindly.
Can we appreciate how beautiful she is ? 😍✨✨
I don't know, I'm split about this. According to experts, touching your hair too much and styling it differently too often like everyday can cause a change in your hair texture and also some damages. Like rubbing, excessive touching of the hair can cause Friz and depending on the hairstyle, also hair loss. Best to always opt for looser hairstyles like 60% of the time and what's better than letting it flow naturally without any obstructions?
Great channel and content. Only saw a couple of your videos!! Thank you so very much!!!!
The hair they have looks feathery and soft, thats what I want ♡♡♡♡
This is very hard to do when you sweat out our hair exercising or playing a sport several times a week.
Your makeup looks really nice on you in this video! 💞
This is why protective styles are so essential to African hair. On top of the reason she mentioned, our hair is often coarser and is coilier, which leads to a lot more need for manipulation if the hair isn't kept in uniform styles. And the more that the hair is manipulated (combed out to pull the kinks and curls apart so your hair doesn't mat) leads to more opportunities for mechanical damage to occur. It's good for all hair types to limit damage whether it be from mechanical forces like brushing, chemical, heat or UV. The difference comes in the ways we cater to those different hair types💇🏾♀️
I can just never get my hair to stay up. It's wavy and on the thinner side. I'm always having to redo it through my day
very true .. I almost never wear it loose because of the damage
Ooo I want to do this girls hair. She has pretty curls but not quit letting them reach their curly beauty potential. Just needs some finger coil encouragement to make them pop even more. Beautiful hair.
I've accepted that if I want to wear my hair how I like its just gonna stay super short
Growing up we had to have long hair and people would go on about how nice it was and how lucky I was to have good hair genes and while it was beautiful hair it was only so nice because it was brushed and braided twice a day every day except very special occasions and only washed once a week (gotta love being on tank water)
As soon as I chopped it off and stopped the above it's not been as nice and even worse now I bleach it 😅
You said it sis!
This is so true. I've had shorter hair most of my life because my hair was so ravaged by blow-drying and washing everyday. I now wash every 3 days and use leave in conditioner and never blow dry. Now I have long hair that's very thick healthy and wavy. I changed habits two years ago and my hair is completely different now.
I love this
I want to care for my hair better.
Black women have been doing this for centuries because we have textured hair we have had to braid it pull it back etc otherwise it was deemed as looking unpresentable
Black women have the shortest hair that is mostly damaged from all the products and tight protective styles that break off edges.
@@theLionandtheLamb1 no! It is true! It’s not as common for a bw to have long hair as it is for other races. BW don’t have fragile hair, the things they do to the hair makes it fragile, ie. relaxers/ perms. If looked after and left without too much manipulation anyone’s hair can grow but the fact that BW put chemicals that are the same thing that is used to clean toilets in children’s hair from a young age makes the hair weak, dry and break. I know because I’m a black woman! I’ve lived it! And so have my family and friends.
@Don’t come for me unless I send for you 🤷 I am Black. Our hair isn't fragile nor hard to grow. The commenter above is correct. A lot of Black women do too much to their hair (perms, wigs, twist outs, braids etc). Since out hair is so versatile and some of us need to assimilate we change our hair
Braids don’t tuck away the ends however. That’s why updos are so great
@@crapbag426
The content creator is talking about traditional hairstyles. You're talking about things Black women were forced to do to try to assimilate.
African women like the Mbalantu have famously long hair. I don't have any hair growth issues either --- I don't overly manipulate it and wear protective styles often to prevent it from rubbing against my clothes.
They also only washed it about once a month, if that!
I concur, I’ve always worn my hair up and at 43 when I do wear my hair down or style it (very infrequent) I get a lot of compliments on how thick and healthy my hair is. Also, I don’t use a lot of products and don’t color my hair. I’m also the last one out of my friends with no grey
Looks so oily and heavy though?
I'm screaming in black women I can't I CANT
So my 5th day mum bun is actually helping lol.. i have naturally curly hair which is wild. Hoping to grow it out a bit!
while traction alopecia is a thing, most historical hairstyles aren’t tight like we think of now(ex: the clean girl bun, or slicked back pony), but lots are looser to create volume, so it really wouldn’t have been a problem as much as it is now
can you do a video on how you style your hair to protect it for growth?
My hair grows faster when I take a Biotin supplement.
Yes and collagen.
I live in a loose French plait or plait and my hair has never been better
I have long curly hair that my eldest cat walks on all night long. He's got some issues. It's never hurt my hair. I've never, ever had a split end.
Great video
I'm sure this works for some, but since I started keeping my hair down all the time, it's grown out much thicker. I tried all kinds of styles but they all pull, except for braiding (French braiding works best), but I rarely do that either. Now my scalp is rarely visible even at the part. I also keep it well hydrated using avocado oil and washing with conditioner only, so it doesn't get knotted and doesn't need combing.
This is so interesting
True words
so good to know
Absolutely!
Thank you
I would likecto see a video of how you put your hair in. The bun. Pls
Can you help!? I'm doing all of your suggestions for my routine. I colored my hair (henna) last night. I'm wondering how soon I can at least oil the ends of my hair. I knew to avoid oil leading up to dying it. I know for 2-3 days after dye there is a protocol of no washing or silicone. Thanks again for the info. I'm down to washing once a week with clay. My hair feels great!
I would personally wait a week to wash your hair after henna dying. 💕 Thanks for the positive feedback!
@@KatherineSewing I love your channel! I can't wait to eventually get to making a bra. Thanks for sharing that!!
I’ve begun washing once a week with rhassoul clay and using the oil blend she suggests in my hair the night before washing since December, and every time the clay doesn’t wash all the oils out. I then rinse with diluted apple cider vinegar, which makes it soft, but idk how to get all the oils out without a harsh shampoo! I have straight hair
I may sound ignorant because I have another hair texture from you, but what I learned is you don’t have to wash alll tthe oils out only things that needs to be squeaky clean is your scalp. Once your hair strands dry it’ll be as soft and fluffy as the women from back in the day because their shampoos or washing methods NEVER completely take the oil off the strands.🙏🏽
@@eberechi1of1 but the hair is left greasy and heavy
I struggled with this problem too much until I had to use shampoo again. And my hair was relieved. I poured a whole bucket of clay, oil was still there. chickpea flour and soapnuts did take some oil out but I had to rub too much my hair was like straw with greasy spots. I don't know what is the magic Ingredient in shampoo which takes oil out but its the only thing which cleans my hair so far.And I waited months for the transition period and lost a of hair.
Use less oil !
You mentioned a diet in one of your other videos. I would love to know. [Pastured animal products (per WAPF lifestyle) welcome as decades of no animal products caused great health problems and hair distress.] Thank you kindly
Same here… Started consuming red meat in Jan 2022. A few months later my mother asked if I were wearing a wig. My hair had grown so much in a short period of time. It’s amazing what red meat can do.
I recently found out my iron (ferritin) is low! Beef liver & red meat have made a big difference to my thinning temples!
@@PsychoKat90 yes same! it's so important, those are beautiful life giving foods and we have to be very grateful for them. We buy from a small clean local grass fed pasture farm, and it's healthy, sequesters the carbon in the environment, and ethical for the animals.
We need those bioavailable amino acids proteins from health sources.
Pescatarian and Vegetarian is fine as long as you do plenty of wild caught (non-China) fish and certain seafoods, poultry eggs, and dairy, also from equally wild fresh and natural organic sources, the dairy is raw and fermented with A2 cows and prefer lower lactose dairy products like cheese as opposed to full lactose like milk. but if you do milk do it Raw A2.
(As a former long time vegan and vegetarian, I wasn't going to go back to eating mindlessly from an evil corporation. We are extremely mindful and research more than ever now, even more than when I was a vegan. Our animal proteins come from a local, privately family owned, non-corporate farm that raises their animals with agreed upon ethical standards of the region (there's a governing body for this in most regions), and the animals are grass fed on pasture, in the sunshine, fresh air, no antibiotics, no hormones.
They use animal psychologists to come and help with landscaping and behaviour and special tools and equipment that reduces or eliminates stress and give them a super quick calm merciful painless as possible death - Temple Grandin is famous for helping revolutionize some of these methods. (They've also tested the cortisol and adrenaline levels and can tell if the animal got stressed and they found how to do this and know). The animals are well treated, cared for, loved, nurtured, given a happy life, protected from predators that would tear them apart in one of those natural in the wild deaths that isn't clean or calm. And unlike plant based agriculture, no other creatures are harmed in the harvesting process like the thousands of moles, voles, mice, snakes, and even young foals, and the top soil gets demolished and depleted where as animal fertilizer replenishes and remineralizes the soil.)
This is the best situation for human health, planet and animal ethics. Animal protein done this way is more vegan than vegan food.
Took me getting sick, wrecking my digestive system, and going broke with vegan doctors trying to figure out why my perfect vegan diet that I did PERFECTLY and tried so many ways consulting with so many vegan experts, wasn't making me healthy but making me worse.
Turns out the vegan diet is a short term cleanse you aren't supposed to live on for years and years.
@@userj3c8r7vnbsk I completely agree! I spent 5 years as a vegetarian and 10 semi-veg (small amount of chicken & fish), but fortunately never vegan. I do my best to source as much as I can from a regenerative farm but ultimately my health & wellbeing now comes first. Hopefully as I regain my energy I will be able to do more and more. I also realized that 'animal rights' don't make sense to me as much as animal welfare, to create positive change in our world. Wish you good health & good hair! ❤
@@PsychoKat90 Amen! Yes animal welfare over rights, well said. We do need to put our health first! We can't fall on our swords for the planet or animal rights, or else if all the compassionate people sacrifice themselves on the alter of climate change and animal rights we need to consider who will be left in charge of the policies and who will police the policy makers - narcissists and the remaining uber virtuous who won't have children, or lost their ability to have them from a longterm vegan diet) voting with their dollars either buying bill gates GMO lab grown substances and powders or insects. meanwhile evil greedy corporations will have bought out all the remaining small farms and any real meat will be outlawed. We can never go back from this and we will be eating like Natalie Portman in V, having only a memory of real butter (which contains butyric acid for colon health, brain health, critical cholesterol for every call wall and inflammation reduction and also brain health again, vital fat soluble vitamins that together with this precious and healthy fat will be absorbed,.. so much more!)
We need all of us to keep the small businesses afloat and stop with the big box corporations. Small and local. Or we will seriously lose the world as we know it and usher in a bleak future.
The lock downs not to go off the rails but it wasn't good for small businesses while Walmart and Costco was allowed to stay open - criminal.
I don't know how we will buy back the Gates owned farmland he co opted from North America, we must retain the family farms we have left. They are the salt of the earth (literally too as livestock mineralizes the soil!)
It's just all connected! Health, planet, animal welfare, our future as a society. We must support the small local family owned farmer and business that is NOT A PUBLICLY TRADED Corporation.
Anyway sorry for the rant on my soap box, thank you for volleying and good hair to you too!
With hair up all the time your hairline will receed quicker. Also the ends get split much easier when people use hair ties, especially when it's super tight in your hair. Learned these things in cosmetology school.
Impeccable material. I read a similar book that was a defining experience. "The Silent Bridge: Echoes of the Unspoken Past" by Emma Wick

Wearing my thick hair up all the time would give me pain as my scalp is sensitive.
Same here, except my hair is so thin.
Modern days are the best!!! 🥺😍
Does cutting your hair more frequently help it from falling out and staying healthy? The reason I ask is cuz I'm a man and I come from a family of all bald men on both sides mom and dad. None of them cut their hair like me, I always have my hair faded on the sides keep it tight on the top. It just makes me wonder I've never used any hair care products like Rogan or anything but I have a full head of hair? Like my dad was bald when he was 19 so in high school I was always worried about it 😂
You have lovely hair.
Makes sense
I could see you starring in Bridgerton ❤️

Hi. I really love your channel and your hair. I just wanted to ask if you or anyonr had any tips for restoring hair. Genetically my hair was so thick people thought I basked in castor oil all day long and it was without any treatments in reality this was up until 16 now I'm about 20 and I saw it decrease 2 times. In less than 5 years. I get a feeling you have that kind of hair too. It could help a lot. Also I never used any heat treatment, dyes or even a hair dryer 90% of the time and I regularly intake Biotin and fruit
Hi sweet, it could be a good idea to go to your doctor an get a blood test, just to check you don't have any underlying health issue, like thyroid or you could be deficient in certain vitamins, especially iron. Use organic natural shampoos too 🙏😇🙌
The amount of breakage I've had when putting my hair up tells me that this does not work for everyone. I never put my hair up anymore because I've actually given myself bald spots on the area that frames my face.
True so ppl who put their up have more breakage..
Also everyone has different hair growth periods! Eventually the hair will fall out at the end of a growth cycle. If you have a four year growth period, your hair won’t ever get super long. If you have a ten year growth period, you’re getting into the extra long territory. And the average is six to eight years.
What about when it's winter in Canada and I need a toque on all the time? Just a low braid then?
After like an hour wearing pony tail I start to feel headache so I just wear my hair down. Its natural, not dyed, healthy, shoulder lenght and I'm okay with that 🙃
When I put my hair up, I get a headache at the end of the day, but when I let it down, I don’t, why is that?
i wear my hair in a low bun everyday and i find that my hair has gotten thinner 😭 it also feels slightly tender when i take it out. i want to start braiding it down instead
Straighteners are the worst (+ v hot & excessive blow-drying.)
Doing so is THE worst, that's
the real problem mostly
these days🙏💜
I use no heat and hair still breaks off
@@AG-nn8lp you mustn't wash it with warm water!!!cool water will not strip your hair and will make them shiny and easily detangled. Also you shouldn't put shampoo on your ends! Only your scalp. Don't blow dry your ends, let them dry on their own, instead blow dry your roots only. Also, castor oil is the best for hair. Apply it 3 times a month from roots to ends(mix it with olive oil, or coconut oil, or Daphne oil, because castor oil on its own it's too thick and hard to apply. Leave for at least one hour if not more, wash well with shampoo ( after years of experience you will know better how many times to shampoo so that it doesn't leave your hair oily) Eggs are also Really important but can be a little risky because they tangle hair a lot which means that if you want to apply eggs you will also need to apply apple cider vinegar( 3/4 vinegar 1/4 water cause it's too strong) after you wash out the eggs( or shampoo your hair) and then wash it out well with water(the vinegar). Apply eggs let them on your hair, wash it well, the apply apple cider vinegar and wash it out well with water( vinegar has low Ph and help the hair detangle!, it's really impressive!)One last thing, protect your hair with protective hair styles, when you are out, in the sun, in the wind, when you go to sleep. It will keep your hair soft, detangled, less knots, less breakage) try protecting them from the sun in the summer, tie them and wear hat or a scarf. All those things will really help you. I had the same problem. My hair had split ends even though I didn't use heat or dyed it.
@@AG-nn8lp Also use hair mask after shampooing. Warm water and shampoo dries hair out. Use only cool water and shampoo and blow dry only your roots!
What would you recommend using for someone who has thinner hair but would love to grow their hair longer? I have recently switched from otc shampoos & conditioners to dōTERRA’s shampoo & conditioner bars & only wash my hair 1-2x a week.
I twist my hair on automatic, I’m sure it’s destructive, especially on the ends. It’s so comforting though, my silky.
At least I gave up thumb sucking.
My hair has actually grown longer since I have tried it in a low bun out of the way when I'm at home, which is about 80% of the time 😂
just curious, how often should one wash/shampoo one's hair? i live in a tropical and country and it feels kinda icky if i dont wash/shampoo my hair everyday.
My mom basically used to tell me that if I didn't wash my hair every day it would fall out.... I'm gonna show here these 😂
Huh. My hair will only grow to my mid back or a little above my waist. And I'm short, so not super long. Even tho I have alot of hair it's super fine and breaks easy. Maybe I'll try keeping it up more.
Whats the point of having super long hair is I can't show it off?? 💁♀️
Ok, but I have textured hair and look like hot garbage if I pull it up... mostly because if I brush it to pull it up, it looks bad, but using my fingers or wide tooth comb looks terrible also. 😅 not sure what to do...
Yeah it’s all good but… why would I put all this effort into growing a long, healthy and beautiful looking hair if I am going to be putting it away every day? I love my long hair and love showing it off and have it frame my face… I dunno - am I wrong?
She literally JUST explained why you put it up and she explained it from several angles. If you love to leave your hair down then just leave it down. Just know that you are EXPOSING your hair to split ends, rubbing up on your clothes, and exposing your hair to environmental elements. Thicker hair strands can handle more abuse than fine hair but EVERYONE’S hair benefits from PROTECTIVE styling. It’s up to you. Your hair can be even longer than it is now and no one is saying that you can NEVER wear it down….
@@Superlife1369 I understand that. That’s not what I’ve been questioning. All I asked is what is the point of having a long luscious hair if all you would do with it is put away all the time. Have a short haircut if you’re worried about exposing your hair to the elements.
The longer your hair is, the more fragile it is and the more it needs special care. If your goal isn't to have super-long hair, then much of this doesn't apply to you. However, if you're frustrated because your hair isn't growing as long as you want it to, then you might want to take her advice. If you're happy with the way your hair is, then keep doing what you're doing. Her advice is for people who can't grow long hair.
@@tiger_and_holt women of the past had different goals. They generally wanted such long hair because it was considered beautiful (but would only be seen loose by their husbands and members of their family) and to create elaborate hairstyles. If you want extremely long hair but intend to leave it down all the time in modern styles, it will be harder to grow and maintain the length without damage.
But not very thin, tight braids. These damage the hair cuticle scales, causing them to bend at such an angle they expose the cortex and cause breakage. But medium to fat braids are fine.
This is why women who wear hijab have gorgeous hair
Wait so since I always braided my hair, it's long?
I would like an answer to my question? I'm not saying you should wear it out everyday, but what about every other day? Did these ladies, wash their hair every week or once a month, didn't it smell rancid, keeping it up all the time during the day? Thank you
I've read historical advice that hair shouldn't be washed more often than every 2 weeks. It's hard to say how their heads smelled, but we do know that they also used other methods of cleaning, including daily brushing, to remove debris from the scalp & hair.
Not me watching this even tho I prefer my hair short lol
