    My daughter is six and African American, and I'm a white male who's been learning how to take care of her mainly o curl pattern since infancy (I admitted since day one I had no clue and had a lot to learn). I'm involving her in learning how to take care of her hair, and I just discovered your channel. I am THRILLED because I see your videos as a way of learning together (they're AMAZING), and for her to have an informed discussion at the salon (she decides what she wants, not us - unless her decision will damage her hair!). Thank you!!

      Agreed.
      Nice to see it was accepted with grace, always a good sign, and partially why I hit the subscribe button!
      I agree with possibly changing it to 'medium'.
      We must remember how language normalises somethings over others if we're not careful.
      And just like how most of us have looked at 'nude/natural' tights that are peach, or skin tone plasters that are peach and looked at our own skin like 'huh, what am I then?' I think usage of terms 'normal' are potentially iffy unless they're used for an open spectrum, rather than a point on a spectrum. :3

    This video was detailed, informative and not only provided pictures, but also examples through animation.

    It is encouraging to see somebody state the positives of having fine hair as all I hear are the negatives.
    I have fine hair strands but high density hair so depending on how my hair is styled I often get comments of people saying that my hair looks thin ect. in a way that makes it seem like a bad thing.
    There’s nothing wrong with it, in most cases my hair is healthier than the person putting down my fine hair.

      Sadly this community seems to completely ignore those of us with fine hair whether thins strand or/and low density.
      It’s like we completely get ignored.

If your hair is naturally thin/fine, it will remain like that regardless as to what vitamins you take, products you use etc....its misleading to think otherwise, and perpetuates the idea that thin hair is undesirable.

    This was such a great series for naturals like myself who’s hair doesn’t mimic these popular TH-camrs. I’m so insecure sometimes the fact that my hair hangs down instead of poofs out. Also that my hair isn’t dense like say Naptural85. But this series really gave me confidence. Thank you!

    • @Michelle-pn9xt
      @Michelle-pn9xt 5 ปีที่แล้ว +35

      Why would you be insecure about your hair hanging down?. I am looking at your picture. Based on the length of your hair, it would not poof out regardless of the texture. The weight of most people's hair would cause it to hang down at that length. If you have healthy hair, be happy! Black women have a wide range of hair textures and skin tones. Be yourself, and be proud of the hair that God gave you!

      Hope that helps ladies! I don’t know exactly what products she uses (didn’t ask) but products are completely subjective depends on what your hair likes. I’m sure it’s not expensive and it’s something that can be found at Target or some beauty supply shop because my sister doesn’t roll with overly expensive/boutique hair products that are hard to come by.

    Just thought I'd let you know, I find these videos helpful to understand my hair even though I'm white and not a member of the target audience. I have thicker and denser wavy hair. Not the thickest or densest, but it's above average for my specific demographic. Great videos!
    The thing that helped me was reversing my cowlick. It wasn't natural...my childhood barber trained it into my hair, and it was disrupting the flow of sebum and blood flow across my scalp. I was going prematurely bald at 27 when my siblings of older ages hadn't started yet! So paying attention to other outside forces can be helpful as well, as reversing the cowlick has taken years of experimentation and militant attention.

    My hair is both dense and fine but also thick and thin from top to bottom. From my forehead to the middle it’s dense and I think thin to normal size. While from middle to nape it’s thick but more fine than the top. The nape is like S and maybe some I very loose but as you move up a little it’s L to O for the most part and the very front it’s a mixture of like I and L together that’s makes it a different strand type. Never was bothered to to type my hair before because I treat it all the same and that other type chart was confusing and lame but this is more better to understand. Though I already mostly figured out what my hair needs already this is nice for the people who still need . Great video I was never this early before. 😃😃😃

    I’ve been saying for YEARS my hair is dense yet my strands are fine, so that’s why I don’t do much with it (ie flat iron styles, cornrows, micros, etc). Ppl roll their eyes at me and think I’m lying, because it’s so thick, but I’ve stood firm in my truth. I found out by doing my younger bro’s hair. when his hair was long., You could see that it was dense with thick strands. His hair could take a bleach job and still thrive. My hair broke off with a blow dry. My hair has thrived as a result of treating my fine strands as such. . I hope others see this vid and treat their hair accordingly.

    I have I guess medium density hair with fine hair strands. My hair will snap off very easily, and it looks very "whispy" when I wear it down. I've worn protective styles my whole life, and now I'm finally wearing my hair out. I will say it has been a journey. In my whole 34 years, I just realized I have thin strands.

  • @rinawallace1962

    Gorgeous pictures of you! And, another wonderful video, which is helping me to understand my hair more and more. It seems my hair is fine and dense. I have always said, about my hair "It is fine, but I have a lot of it." These days I am happy to still have hair on my head, as I will be reaching the wondrous age of 73 in June! I have an autoimmune condition and take medications, which contributed much to thinning over the past 10 years. Yet, when I take my twists down, my hair appears full... At the beginning of February, I started using your Onion Juice recipe weekly and I added ginger to the onion, garlic and red pepper. I love it and see great benefits so far, including a slight increase in fullness and about an inch of growth!
    I have had a burning question for several weeks for you, if you do not mind. Why did you not include Rice Water rinses in your new Onion Juice regime last year? I have included Rice Water rinses, along with the Onion Juice prepoo, so I know it will be difficult to determine, which one contributed what... But I do know that the Onion Juice mix is my favorite. The Rice Water contributes to dryness, which is inherently problematic for me...
    Sorry about the rambling long comment...

  • @obsidyenneg4333

    I believe texture is not one dimensional. My hair strands are very fine, my density is very high and my texture, based on your chart, is more toward the tight end. Yet my hair is always soft, and more silky than what people associate as kinky (if that makes sense). It takes little effort for my hair to become straight, despite my tighter curl pattern.

    My hair is very fine. I have a lot of hair per square inch on my scalp so it's dense but because the strands are fine it still looks a bit 'scalpy' when twisted wet and stretched to dry. So I feel that could give false results on your quarter density test technique.

    Thank you for addressing this subject. I like the way you talk about ALL hair types and characteristics. It's very helpful.
    Just to add my 2¢, Biotin, as well as MSM, caused an increase in facia hair for me so I stopped using it. Not cute!
    I also find that henna helps with thickness. The way it coats my stands makes them appear thicker. Nothing drastic, but it's a healthy choice.

    I used to relax my hair and it became thinner and thinner, this is true for most people. One day I experimented using cannabis's hair food (Marijuana) I crushed the dried seeds at home and added them to my hair food. I noticed a significant change in my hair texture, it felt stronger and looked thicker as well. I have since stopped relaxing my hair and I have beautiful thick African hair. I now just use cloves tea and flaxseed jell. Well, my hair is beautiful, thick, strong and has visible natural curls too.

    Also, I've seen dramatic improvement in my hair thickness since I've started doing protein treatments, worked much much better than rice water for me. And product wise: Camille Rose offers great moisturizing products that do not leave oily films or weigh your hair down. You feel like you're touching your hair, moisturized and non greasy!
