“In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in Heaven” -Mathew 5:16 Merry Christmas Everyone and don’t forget to be a blessing for the less fortunate during this season. See you in my next video. Update : You can go www.kCurlsys.com to shop my Haircare Line.
Agreeed my 4c had frustrated me coz it gets all kinky after wash and I end up relaxing it but now I have spent the year getting my hair trimmed off my hair stylist said to cut it off in stages lol
1. Fenugreek seeds- soak in water for 24-36hs and use in spray bottle to hydrate hair daily 2. Don't comb kinks, put in protective styling (that lasts 4-6 weeks). I.e. cornrows, crochet, braids. At most, use wide tooth comb 3. Use natural products 4. Scalp massage with olive, avocado and coconut oil for penetration. Jojoba and grapseed oil for slip and shine 5. Conditioner with slip like sauve coconut 6. Have a wash routine. Don't brush when really wet or really dry. Use blow-dry tension method or threading 7. Detangle hair before seeing any stylist, or do ur own hair 8. Moringa powder in smoothies and teas 9. Leave your hair alone 10. Go natural
@@juliatripp2010 love my natural hair too Sis! Wigs just allow me to go about my professional life while rockin' out to my crazy braids underneath 😉! My hair has increased in density and I am so happy! Currently wearing 2 african threading braids in the front and 4 in the back!
The fact you said you’ve never had long hair should automatically make anyone who is looking to grow their hair sub to you! It’s me, I’m anyone. Subbed 💓
@5:19 "im sorry it sounds like im fighting but im rlly pasionate about this" -literally every black girl. Dont apologize and dont explain yourself! much love
I know what you mean. I'm 5'11 and my hair is bra strap length but on a person who is like 5'2 or so with my hair would be like mid back length 🙄. So it may take us an extra year, but we'll get there!!!
@@naturallybran4240 the struggle be so real! A lot of the waist length girls are average height and under. When we get there it'll be deemed pretty impressive lol
I know the struggle. I’m only slightly above average height, but my sister is 5’2. Her hair looks longer because she’s shorter. Also, her neck and back area are shorter than mine. Not only do I have a little height to me, my damn neck and back be soooo damn long😫😭
Yanique West I totally feel u. I’m not 6 ft but I tell my kids all the time that if my neck was shorter my hair will be damn near waist length with 18 inches. So by the time I do actually get to waist length. I’ll have probably like 30’s Inches cause my neck length.🤦🏽♀️
You are so right about stylist who got some reason are rough with 4C hair like they are mad at it and hate it. I had one braid stylist to RIP through my tightly coiled wer hair with a piping hot blow-dryer. I was fuming😠😡😤👿😤😤😤 I told another stylist about that experience and that I ACTUALLY LOVE my 4C hair, please be gentle and she in turn was incredibly gentle with my hair. ❤
I found you 3 days ago& I am now binge watching everything you've done. As a dark skinned 4c hair having girl it gives me comfort in your experience because I can relate & I believe what you say will work because you look like me (representation is everything) I have hit a road block in my hair growth journey & I figured my hair would not grow anymore. I did the "big chop" in hopes to retrain, strengthen & regrow my hair. I have been up almost 2 days researching Fenugreek & adding it to my hair regimen. I am have purchased your moisturizer & I'm making your suggestions my hair bible. A woman's hair especially a black woman's hair is verrry important to who she is & how she moves. I have prayed on this & I know this will make a big difference. I am an avid follower now. I am so grateful I found your channel.
I appreciate you showing your hair as a child. You truly proved the stereotype that someone has to have long hair as a child will have long hair as an adult. Excellent
W.Cinderea I gave my hair a thorough brushing with conditioner in the shower to get all the tangles out before I started finger detangling, also it makes it easier to finger detangle if you do it before it has a chance to get super tangled. The more I did it the easier it got (I wear my hair in wash n gos) I limit to using a tool to once a month if that.
My honest opinion is that. Individually we have to take pieces of information from here and there. Pieces of routine from here and there. Pieces of this and that. Get to know your hair. Love your hair. Own your hair. Pay attention to your hair. Be patient with your hair. Leave your hair. Figure out what works for your hair and stop minding other people's hair business. That's what worked for me.
Same I never had long hair as a child. I grew my hair out about 14 inches. I hit a plateau and yesterday I cut all my hair off lol. Starting this journey over again.
I always do crochet and it grew my hair. Ever since 2013, my hair started growing with crochet so I know she spitting FACTS. Crochet, faux locs and braids are what I do and I don't let anyone in my hair except my mother and I. Hairstylists always try to get me bald I wouldn't let them touch me with a 10 feet pole. If you don't like crochet; wigs and weaves do the job.
This is the first natrual hair 4c grower I finally stayed and listen to. Many 4c youtubers that make videos on how to grow hair long were pretty much born with it or had long perm hair before, so I never listened. Your pictures, steps, and video was very informative.
I totally agree with your explanation of what an ACTUAL “Protective Style” is! Love the look you’re sporting in this vid. Again, thanks for Sharing this information & tips. I COMPLETELY SUPPORT THIS MESSAGE!!🙏🏾👍🏾 Btw...You are way adorable!
I’ve seen my hair grow and get thick when I deep conditioned it monthly, trim my spilt end every 4-6 months and literally put my hair in my favorite protective style ( two strand twists) medium size. Since I haven’t been moisturizing it and been manipulating it, it’s been falling out. Also my edges are getting thin. Back to glueless wigs and twist I go!
I absolutely love the fact that you didn't talk down on yourself and you embraced your hair texture and you proved my brother wrong that "4c hair doesn't grow" the reason why our black women's hair doesn't grow is because the relax it and leave there hair out and comb it. I love this video because im a 12 year old girl who is struggling to grow her hair. Thanks for this video now im going to try these methods
THANK YOU!!!! Finally a YTer who hasn't had butt-length hair since they were six years old. I've been natural my entire life and ive also been stuck at shoulder length my entire life so I WILL be taking notes
I love that you're speaking about the health of your hair, follicles, shaft, and cuticles. Your passion is infectious. You should not have to go through all that...before... you see your stylist!!!! Girl, that breaks my heart that your stylist isn't interested in the health of your hair. Fire them!!!!!!!!!! A great hairdresser teaches you how to properly care for your hair by doing just that. I loooove my hairdresser, I'm almost at operation waist length because of her. Even when I had to stop going to her because I couldn't afford to, she taught me how to properly care for my 4c hair. Stylist/hairdressers that don't have this type of passion...need to find a new line of work.
I'm so happy you mentioned the growth plateau because I'm experiencing that right now and it's been confusing me so I'm happy to hear that it is a thing that other people go through
For the first time ever in my life, and I am 62, I got crochet braids. I took them out myself and did not know that there were some braids, of my own hair that I did not take down. I washed my hair and it matted. In a panic I pulled out my hair trying to comb through it and now its thin. I retained some of the length but the thickness has gone. I was so angry with myself and now I am afraid of protective styles, such as, braids. I always wanted them and when I finally had them I screwed my hair up. I am going to start this journey again and try to learn about my own hair. I have been natural for at least 13 years. Recently I have been doing a lot of blow outs. I do not know what to do with my hair. I was going to cut it all off, then I remembered and you clarified that, a woman's hair is her glory. My hair is still healthy, I think, but every since that incident last year it is thinning. I am excited to use your products and begin a hair routine. My stylist does not treat my hair with love and tenderness. She pulls and tugs. I am going to take control of my own hair journey and get it back.
I thank god for you!! You are helping me. I just done the big chop a few days ago and now I’m watching your videos like everyday! Please continue what your doing and god will bless you for your selfless sacrifices.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Wow Kelcy, well done. I like the part that you said leave ur hair alone. Leaving ur hair alone just allows ur hair to breathe and to make it grow the natural and not the forceful way. I like to keep my braids for a long time but alongside,I apply all the oils you mentioned, so am good to go. And that’s how I grow my hair. U and I speak the same hair language 😍. I really enjoyed watching your video👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great advice! I totally agree with using natural hair products made by small businesses on Etsy. I have an Etsy store & I also customize natural healing-care products for my customers using only the best organic, hand, picked ingredients. I also make everything to order, so it's fresh & better quality than the products sitting on the shelves at the store & in warehouses for months or sometimes years before it reaches the consumer. I'm on my natural hair journey & I'm starting a new UA-cam channel sharing some of the tips that have worked for my super curly hair, starting with healing from the inside out. Your channel has inspired me! Keep up the great work! You're beautiful!!
I really love your sense of humor, I like the fact that you are real, I laughed so hard when you said "my hair grows and yours don't" lol and then said you are probably not going to come back but pls do"🤣. You are funny girl, love from Nigeria
Hello Eugenia, I love watching your videos. They are very informational and extremely helpful. Since watching your videos, I've started using the Aloe Vera Juice, MSM, and Fenugreek mixture and my hair has so totalky grown! I'm like wow. I've never had long hair before but like you said about these all natural products: they work! My length before using was probably to the nape of my head, but now a little past my shoulders! It only been about a month if using it, that's what is amazing to me! Thank you for sharing all if your contents. It's truly been a blessing to me!!!
You're so right about not detangling on wet hair, esp if you have fine hair like me. Even though our hair is stronger than straight hair and can be combed wet without being ripped to shreds doesn't mean it's still not in a very weak state. It's best to detangling on DAMP/slightly wet hair period. Your hair isnt constantly shrinking up on it's self either like it does when wet=more progress. I learned that the hard way when I used a tangle teezer in shower😭
I thought i was the only one who questions hairstylists’ method of combing hair!!!! Unbelievable, heartless, careless! How can they advice me after that?!?!
I do 2 months as well, and I’ve been keeping up with the 2 months wash period for 3 and a half years now; my hair surpasses mid back. It’s a great way to grow kinky/curly hair, but in between time it is absolutely essential to oil/moisturize your hair(every 2-3 days). Great tips btw!!!!!
I love this. Thank you for the best advice and different advice from the basic stuff everyone keeps giving. I’m 4c and I’ve plateaued. So I’m definitely going to try all of this.! 🙌🏽 new subbie.!
OMG I'm so glad you said that about the stylist. I've seen that quite a few times where a stylist has yanked my head or has taken a small Barbie comb like you said LOL. Some of them can be so rough and not care about ripping the ends are strands of your hair.
Love this video. Lol I so agree with the detangling before going to a hair dresser. I haven't found one yet that takes the time to detangle my hair with out ripping it out!!!!
Charlene .W. I did January 2018... and wore a wig until I could get braids. It’ll be 2 years in a couple weeks. It was a slowwww process but I’m starting to be happy now. Lol
so glad i found your channel and im so excited to try some of your tips for my 4c hair!! i've been natural since 2015 and my hair is struggling, it fell out after i miscarried a year and a half ago , it was growing okay before that , but i noticed when i got pregnant my hair really jumped and then after it fell out and hasn't been the same since then. can't wait to try some of this stuff out!!
Good tips! Getting rid of detangling tools helped my hair out a lot this year. Lol I was dying when you said "Cry, it helps." 😂😂 Also, you're beautiful ♥️
Great tips! I never thought of getting hair products from etsy! Just subscribe! I'm Hispanic with curly hair and my husband is African with tight curly hair. I love to watch these videos because my son and future children I know will have kinky curly hair and I want to keep it natural and healthy!really great info!
You're so cute and helpful! Just want to say that in high school I texturized my hair and grew it long and yes, it's practically the same as with natural hair when it comes to sealing and moisturizing, protective styling, all of those are still important for retaining any length whatsoever!
I just subscribed to your channel and am going to start my natural hair journey now. I always say natural hair is painful to comb but have changed my mind and starting now in 2020. Thank you dear. Much love
UA-cam recommendations brings me and Lord have mercy you're an adorable girl, breathtaking actually with a lovely heart. Blessings to you and your family 🕊️
"At least I got long hair and you dont." 🤣🤣🤣You are so so right. Leave your hair alone, and yeah, your hair may look hella raggedy under your wig, but youre growing it!!! Your advice is spot on!!
So true what you said abt these hair stylists rushing and breaking your hair. It’s ridiculous how much hair I’ve lost going to a professional. The last time i went i detangled and moisturized my hair prior and it made a HUGE difference now i only go for trims and i blow dry my hair b4 i go
You are doing a great job taking care of your hair! I would also suggest taking collegen everyday. I put collegen power in my coffee and it has made my hair stronger and that also means less change of breakage.
Such lovely hair! I wish I’d known of you when I was natural. I might have had the extra encouragement to stay with my 4C hair as it was. I’m still grateful for the tips and techniques I learnt while natural, though (unfortunately, learning and implementing them still only got my hair to just about collarbone length in 5.5 years).
I cut my hair two weeks ago and it's already growing back super fast. My hair grows back fast anyways. I already had that kinky hair, even with I had process and relaxed my hair, I still had that nice curl pattern. I wanted to try something different and here it is, chopped off. I use aloe vera, honey, Jamaican Castor Oil, and olive oil. I had to experiment with different hair products. What works for you doesn't mean it going to work for everyone else. And I make sure to massage my hair every night also, it helps stimulate hair growth also.
Thanks for the tips! I have the same problem, I hit a plateau with my hair growth years ago and even though I've been natural for almost 11 years, my hair hasn't grown past my shoulders! I know it's growing but it keeps breaking off and no matter what I try, I still get a lot of breakage 😭. I'll try some of these tips, particularly the natural hair products but mostly importantly I'm gonna ramp up my protective styling! 🤞 I'll see more growth in the next year.
Thanks for sharing your journey and routine beautiful I love seeing how other naturals grow and maintain healthy natural hair. Looking forward to more videos. :)
Daniyella Harmon Same. I don’t care if it’s waist length(which is the holy grail length amongst black people), if I have to keep it under a wig for a lifetime for it to grow and stay long, then I don’t want it.
@@generalidakatana2561 You dont have to wear a wig am going to butt length just leave your hair alone. I do braids with own hair and twists i hate wigs
@@butterfly9274 Look up what Relaxers does to black women bodies/ internal system, maybe that's the reason they would rather wear a wig than relax their hair. There are wigs that looks similar to African American hair or maybe they want to play with color.
When she said “Anything that does not last your hair for 4-6 weeks is not protective style” Sis I have really sensitive scalp that gets dirty really quick and like clock work starts itching me every week. So I’ll wash my hair before my scalp bleeds from me starching it’s trying to make it last for 4 weeks.
Girl yes to you!!!! Finally someone who’s actually 4C talking facts and with results to show. You are heaven sent! One question: where do you buy your Moringa powder?
Wow!! your hair is so so long and healthy I have 4c hair.. right now I am trying to start my hair Journey I with keep following you until my hair growth Thanks so much for the video
This video was very much needed for me because every since I did the big chop it’s taking my hair a while to grew 😭😭😭. & seeing this video I took notes and I will be trying all the tips, methods & products you recommended. Thank you Kel 💕😘

People really be hating on wigs nobody is forcing you to wear wigs she's just sharing what works for her!
Covid19 has me LOVING wigs!!! Been wearing and caring for my hair under wigs since late May 2020! Growth is phenomenal!!!
Me too. Love wigs but love my natural hair and am on the journey
My hair has grown a lot wearing wigs and I can be more versatile with hair color, length and styles.
They hate because they aint got no hair. I got 4c hair and had it under wigs. Especially 4c hair it likes to be left alone. It will grow like crazy
@@juliatripp2010 love my natural hair too Sis! Wigs just allow me to go about my professional life while rockin' out to my crazy braids underneath 😉! My hair has increased in density and I am so happy! Currently wearing 2 african threading braids in the front and 4 in the back!

Even when my hair gets to this length it's gonna be like bra strap length because I'm nearly 6 foot with a long ass neck 💀
I know what you mean. I'm 5'11 and my hair is bra strap length but on a person who is like 5'2 or so with my hair would be like mid back length 🙄. So it may take us an extra year, but we'll get there!!!

Tonya Jones I prefer to use a detangling brush but I only need to use it when I fall off my normal routine
You don't ever have itchy scalp?

Love your hair. Own your hair. Pay attention to your hair. Be patient with your hair. Leave your hair. Figure out what works for your hair and stop minding other people's hair business.

So true becauae my hair and skin hates coconut oil but I have friends that only use that!

These tips for 4c hair are so helpful. I have been looking for ways to breakthrough the plateau. I'll try these!!. Thank you so much girl! 💞
Wow Kelcy, well done. I like the part that you said leave ur hair alone. Leaving ur hair alone just allows ur hair to breathe and to make it grow the natural and not the forceful way. I like to keep my braids for a long time but alongside,I apply all the oils you mentioned, so am good to go. And that’s how I grow my hair. U and I speak the same hair language 😍. I really enjoyed watching your video👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great advice! I totally agree with using natural hair products made by small businesses on Etsy. I have an Etsy store & I also customize natural healing-care products for my customers using only the best organic, hand, picked ingredients. I also make everything to order, so it's fresh & better quality than the products sitting on the shelves at the store & in warehouses for months or sometimes years before it reaches the consumer. I'm on my natural hair journey & I'm starting a new UA-cam channel sharing some of the tips that have worked for my super curly hair, starting with healing from the inside out. Your channel has inspired me! Keep up the great work! You're beautiful!!
“When they start yanking your hair cry!!” I love it loll
I don't like videos where people chat for long, but this one is worth it. Thanks for the info.
I really love your sense of humor, I like the fact that you are real, I laughed so hard when you said "my hair grows and yours don't" lol and then said you are probably not going to come back but pls do"🤣. You are funny girl, love from Nigeria
Girl I am more than motivated to try out your tips. You are gorgeous by the way❤
Low manipulation styles are just as good as protective styles (if not better) in myyy opinion
Elvonne's Essentials low manipulation styles is a form of protective styling.
Truuuuu (in my 2Chainz voice) 🤣
Well how long is your hair is it as long as hers? No hate just a question
Gerda pierre No, I cut my hair off for the 2nd time in March 2018 but you can see the length in my “watch me stretch my wash n go” video
FACTSSS
Hello Eugenia,
I love watching your videos. They are very informational and extremely helpful.
Since watching your videos, I've started using the Aloe Vera Juice, MSM, and Fenugreek mixture and my hair has so totalky grown! I'm like wow. I've never had long hair before but like you said about these all natural products: they work!
My length before using was probably to the nape of my head, but now a little past my shoulders! It only been about a month if using it, that's what is amazing to me!
Thank you for sharing all if your contents. It's truly been a blessing to me!!!
Finally someone that gives timelines with their routines.
Gosh I love your personality. I'm really feeling this girl. Keep up the good work hun
who's daughter is this. she's cute as a button.
hoekage ...Aint she adorable!👍🏾
Hi I like your hair
How do you do it
Literally haha❤️
You are gorgeous girl & with a beautiful personality. Your skin is flawless. I love my people 💕
Soooo much truth in this video. Cant wait for your next one, Queen!
You're so right about not detangling on wet hair, esp if you have fine hair like me. Even though our hair is stronger than straight hair and can be combed wet without being ripped to shreds doesn't mean it's still not in a very weak state.
It's best to detangling on DAMP/slightly wet hair period.
Your hair isnt constantly shrinking up on it's self either like it does when wet=more progress.
I learned that the hard way when I used a tangle teezer in shower😭
I thought i was the only one who questions hairstylists’ method of combing hair!!!! Unbelievable, heartless, careless! How can they advice me after that?!?!
Your young but you broke it all dowwwn girl! The best realistic tips Ive heard dear thank youuuu will defo follow your advice.
0:11 You look absolutely gorgeous in that oufit. Everything is literally beautiful about you. Your hair and your skin are so flawless
I do 2 months as well, and I’ve been keeping up with the 2 months wash period for 3 and a half years now; my hair surpasses mid back. It’s a great way to grow kinky/curly hair, but in between time it is absolutely essential to oil/moisturize your hair(every 2-3 days). Great tips btw!!!!!
for years I would do SIX months hahaha I called it the leave it the f alone method. hahahaha
Love
I love this. Thank you for the best advice and different advice from the basic stuff everyone keeps giving. I’m 4c and I’ve plateaued. So I’m definitely going to try all of this.! 🙌🏽 new subbie.!
OMG I'm so glad you said that about the stylist. I've seen that quite a few times where a stylist has yanked my head or has taken a small Barbie comb like you said LOL. Some of them can be so rough and not care about ripping the ends are strands of your hair.
Love this video. Lol I so agree with the detangling before going to a hair dresser. I haven't found one yet that takes the time to detangle my hair with out ripping it out!!!!
Lowkey feel like shaving my head and starting fresh 😕
Charlene .W. Yeah you should do it ! I have done it recently - no regrets!
Charlene .W. I did January 2018... and wore a wig until I could get braids. It’ll be 2 years in a couple weeks. It was a slowwww process but I’m starting to be happy now. Lol
use peppermint oil, the circulation to your hair follicles will increase thus increasing hair growth.
Girl I shaved my head in 2017... greatest decision of my life
Oo oh I've had these thoughts before too 😂
Just subscribe. You are telling me more info that anybody on here. Keep up the amazing work👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️
so glad i found your channel and im so excited to try some of your tips for my 4c hair!! i've been natural since 2015 and my hair is struggling, it fell out after i miscarried a year and a half ago , it was growing okay before that , but i noticed when i got pregnant my hair really jumped and then after it fell out and hasn't been the same since then. can't wait to try some of this stuff out!!
I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a miscarriage last week Thursday and pain of it none can fathom. May God heal you and restore you even the hair
Good tips! Getting rid of detangling tools helped my hair out a lot this year. Lol I was dying when you said "Cry, it helps." 😂😂 Also, you're beautiful ♥️
Great tips! I never thought of getting hair products from etsy! Just subscribe! I'm Hispanic with curly hair and my husband is African with tight curly hair. I love to watch these videos because my son and future children I know will have kinky curly hair and I want to keep it natural and healthy!really great info!
Great job w/ explaining your hair tips! I definitely wrote down the info. Thank you for your insight!
I’m such a fan!! You’re soooo beautiful, I am definitely going to commit to your routine for a while
I do not like hairstylists! They don’t care if they break your hair. My hair has went through so much 😭. You’re inspiring me. Thank you
I don't understand how I never ran Into you before! OMG! I love you😍😍😍! You are everything! New subbie😘
Glad i came across your channel! Love how transparent you were, you just earned a subs🥰
You're so cute and helpful! Just want to say that in high school I texturized my hair and grew it long and yes, it's practically the same as with natural hair when it comes to sealing and moisturizing, protective styling, all of those are still important for retaining any length whatsoever!
sorry for the late reply but does texturizing your hair make it curlier
That hair color is so pretty on you!
thank you :)
"Sir, ma'am, sir, stop" lmao I love you
I’m a new watcher. I love your Chanel and I’m learning a lot and look forward to applying you experience and wisdom. God bless you.
I just subscribed to your channel and am going to start my natural hair journey now. I always say natural hair is painful to comb but have changed my mind and starting now in 2020. Thank you dear. Much love
UA-cam recommendations brings me and Lord have mercy you're an adorable girl, breathtaking actually with a lovely heart. Blessings to you and your family 🕊️
"At least I got long hair and you dont." 🤣🤣🤣You are so so right. Leave your hair alone, and yeah, your hair may look hella raggedy under your wig, but youre growing it!!! Your advice is spot on!!
Thank you for being real and not just doing it for views
So true what you said abt these hair stylists rushing and breaking your hair. It’s ridiculous how much hair I’ve lost going to a professional. The last time i went i detangled and moisturized my hair prior and it made a HUGE difference now i only go for trims and i blow dry my hair b4 i go
*You are so freaking pretty. Your red undertone skin & that Rapunzel hair 🤯 Beautiful* ✨🧜🏿♀️❤️
You are doing a great job taking care of your hair! I would also suggest taking collegen everyday. I put collegen power in my coffee and it has made my hair stronger and that also means less change of breakage.
Such lovely hair! I wish I’d known of you when I was natural. I might have had the extra encouragement to stay with my 4C hair as it was. I’m still grateful for the tips and techniques I learnt while natural, though (unfortunately, learning and implementing them still only got my hair to just about collarbone length in 5.5 years).
You just gained a new subscriber. Very formative video. I thank you.
The way I’ve been natural all my life and I’m still at shoulder lengthhhhh😭😭
Sambiro Kitawi at least u got that! I’m here still looking bald😂😂😂
Same here😢😢😭😭
Same
I cut my hair two weeks ago and it's already growing back super fast. My hair grows back fast anyways. I already had that kinky hair, even with I had process and relaxed my hair, I still had that nice curl pattern. I wanted to try something different and here it is, chopped off. I use aloe vera, honey, Jamaican Castor Oil, and olive oil. I had to experiment with different hair products. What works for you doesn't mean it going to work for everyone else. And I make sure to massage my hair every night also, it helps stimulate hair growth also.
Thanks for the tips! I have the same problem, I hit a plateau with my hair growth years ago and even though I've been natural for almost 11 years, my hair hasn't grown past my shoulders! I know it's growing but it keeps breaking off and no matter what I try, I still get a lot of breakage 😭. I'll try some of these tips, particularly the natural hair products but mostly importantly I'm gonna ramp up my protective styling! 🤞 I'll see more growth in the next year.
Thanks for sharing your journey and routine beautiful I love seeing how other naturals grow and maintain healthy natural hair. Looking forward to more videos. :)
When do you let your hair out? And for how long? I would hate to do all this work and not even show it off a little lol
Daniyella Harmon Same. I don’t care if it’s waist length(which is the holy grail length amongst black people), if I have to keep it under a wig for a lifetime for it to grow and stay long, then I don’t want it.
@@generalidakatana2561 You dont have to wear a wig am going to butt length just leave your hair alone. I do braids with own hair and twists i hate wigs
Tis witchcraft is holy grail length? I never really cared for it to be that long. I would be trying to cut it off honestly
Daniyella Harmon yeah! Don’t understand why us black women hate relaxed hair but love wigs😏
@@butterfly9274 Look up what Relaxers does to black women bodies/ internal system, maybe that's the reason they would rather wear a wig than relax their hair. There are wigs that looks similar to African American hair or maybe they want to play with color.
Your sooo funny and sweet the ending had me in stitches 😂 New subbie right here doll 👍
Am amazed. This is how you guys hair is supposed to look. It’s pretty and beautiful. !
I love you, I’ve been looking for content like this for 5 years. I wish I found you sooner😭
When she said “Anything that does not last your hair for 4-6 weeks is not protective style”
Sis I have really sensitive scalp that gets dirty really quick and like clock work starts itching me every week. So I’ll wash my hair before my scalp bleeds from me starching it’s trying to make it last for 4 weeks.
Fit Sue same it sucks 😩
Black jamaican castor oil is needed
Girl yes to you!!!! Finally someone who’s actually 4C talking facts and with results to show. You are heaven sent! One question: where do you buy your Moringa powder?
i get them on etsy
Thanks for the video. There are people who have relaxed hair and still grow their hair beautiful and strong. Everyone's hair is different.
Wow!! your hair is so so long and healthy
I have 4c hair.. right now I am trying to start my hair Journey
I with keep following you until my hair growth
