    This is the beauty of African hair. It is a journey and not a boring one at that. At times mistakes will be made , other times you will find what works for you until you wonder how you lived without that hair regimen. You are still beautiful no matter what happened or happens. Enjoy the journey, good luck girl.

    No disrespect to this video but i am going to be real with about my experience. I admit that i have thick average curly hair but during the quarantine my hair was unmanageable for about 6 mos. It was extremely thick and i was unable to comb through it. I would be so busy during the day that i just ignored it since we basically stayed home during pandemic. I decided to texturize because i would relax about twice a year but i wanted to try the natural route for 6mos. Anyway, IT WAS THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE! I literally have more curls and they are ELONGATED CURLS. The texturizer makes the curls you have waaaay longer than before..I do not regret my decision and i wish y'all knew the less stress i have! To each its own but i have no regrets:)

    @bintimrembo 6 років тому +162

    Love this Video. I had texturized hair with my boycut before growing my hair out. I always did my own texturizing at home. Never comb out the texturizer-rub with fingers. But if you want straighter edges/edges on fleek/hair gel responsive edges for nice baby hairs then you can gently press and pull the edges back with your finger while texturizer is "cooking". 2) I used men's texturizer -for some reason it was better curl pattern-wise. 3) Leave-in conditioner is bae. Texturizer tends to make hair crunchy and dry. Everyday application when hair is wet would work for me. 4) Water based hair gel (Eco) for Tinnie Winnie Afros is also bae (as was the case for me)....Perhaps I will do a 'tips' episode on Over 25 :) one day!

    I used to perm my hair and it would burn my scalp badly at times. Then went to texturing but noticed I would have different texturizes on the same strand. Just decided healthy hair was better than "beauty standards " idea of what is "good hair". Too many textured stranded ladies are doing so much stuff to their hair and are losing their hair. It just takes one bad chemical application to ruin your hair.

    I texturized my hair and at first it was good but looking back I regret it... it wasn’t till after my hair started growing back healthy that I realized how terrible it was... my hair had very minimal hair growth in the 2 years after I had it in, it’s now been 4 years since I had it and it’s just now growing (with the help of hair masks and rice water), it also made my hair dry and my coils were not the same. I have 4c hair and it does get hard to manage but I’m learning how to properly take care of it and learning what works for my hair by watching videos and through trial and error

    I did an s curl texturizer last year in late May... almost a year later now my hair has broken off drastically and has horrible looking ramen noodle curls that fall out when they get wet. My hair DID NOT revert. My edges started to recede but I've gotten them under control. I through away a year of natural, shoulder length hair because I thought my curls we're too tight, nappy, not silky enough and I hated it. Now I'm doing a big chop again in 2019. Before you risk your hair for a texturizer please think "is it really worth it?" "Will my hair still be healthy afterwards?" "Do I really want this or am I doing it because I care what others think of my hair?"

    So, I texturized my hair, it was so soft, and I fooled everyone that I have very soft manageable curls. However, it's the worst mistake I made. My shoulder length hair is completely gone after 6 months (2 applications). If you have short hair, and have no care for growth, go for it. Want to maintain length, DON'T. Don't let anyone show you the procedure and not the long term results.

    I texturised my hair at the beginning of the year after 10 years natural and it was the biggest mistake ever. My hair is now weak thin and breaks very easily. I protein treat regularly but it seems to not make much difference.

    I just did a texlax on my natural hair after 3 years of being natural and it turned out AMAZING! I did mix conditioner in with the S Curl texturizer. My curls are still very present but my hair is soooooo much more manageable. I can wear it both ways now and my curl pattern looks so much better! I know I ❤️ my taxlaxed hair so much 😉 Everyone’s results are different. She stated that whoever did hers over processed her..maybe that’s why she lost so much of her natural curl pattern. I love mine and can wear it both ways now (curly - wash and go or a straight bob.

    I texturised my hair a couple of times back then and it would break off or turn into some brown shade. I stopped, embraced my natural hair fully with its kinky texture, I have 4c by the way and so far it's coming out well. Texturizers, relaxers or chemicals may work for some people but not others. I love your hair by the way 😍💕

  • @rayraythura6414

    Great video love!
    I had texturized hair from 2013/2016 and for the most part since I was in high school /uni it helped with managing my hair especially the fact that when it got rained on it didn't get affected by cutting or major shrinkage and that I had a really busy schedule to start doing sijui all the dedication that natural hair calls for...😂
    However around August 2016 I started doing protective styling with braids and what not just to avoid going to the salon for a few more months -times of money were hard😅-
    So now in December that year I had some really significant growth and what I noticed was it was so curly and thick compared to my other hair! It was so beautiful! So I decided to try out the whole naturalista lifestyle and I've been transitioning and growing my hair slowly and been trimming it At home myself polepole tu! It's now almost the same length as my texturized hair was last year and because of transitioning I haven't felt the pain of the big chop! Plus people haven't noticed that I've been cutting my hair....tho people say it's now so much fuller and I've gotten to know my natural hair is super soft and curly,like walalo hair...Haha
    But I shall still say, hair is meant to be played with and have fun. I had fun with the texturized hair as it was really good and I was allowed to do heat styling as often as I loved however damaging...and now I'm in a different stage. In every stage you learn and evolve...and it's liberating.(Secretly I want to dye my hair too)
    Take it from me, both are fine. It all depends on you boo! I genuinely like both the looks you have...and that you're keeping it real.
    Anyway,nuff rumbling. Cheers love, stay winning and loving your channoooo

  • @cherylmks
    @cherylmks 6 років тому +1

    Yes that has also happened to me with texlaxing. And it only happens to the section of my hair that didn't really have a curl pattern in the first place. The ends get too straight and I cut them off. I wear wash n go on my hair but I have to twist or braid that section to develop a curl pattern that matches the rest. Other sections - most of my hair just develop a looser curl pattern from texturizing/texlaxing.

    I texturized my hair in 2004 when I was going off to college bc I thought there weren't any black people where I was going. So I did it and it was cute but I had to wash daily for it to look good. About a 2 years later I wanted to relax it and it wouldn't straighten. I used tcb naturals relaxer for years it didn't work tried several brands of relaxers same result. Finally tried the cheap Supreme 2 relaxers for 5$ and that straighten my hair. Didn't like that I had the same hair style for over 3 years with 1 application. vowed if I wanted to go natural im going without chemicals and have been now for about 11 years l, actually starting my locks.

    Hi came across your video. Your hair looks really nice. It’s probably because it’s the first time you’ve done it with virgin hair. I don’t think you should give up. But texturzers need constant moisture s curl no drip is a really good curl activator it will work well with your short style. Or Sof n free curl activators
