Crying over your hair is a milestone for every black person or anyone with a tight curl pattern. I’ll be so mad I’ll start staring at the razor, like I could end this with one button.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
i spent more time crying over my hair than the time i’ve been alive
I've never cried over my hair. That's not a brag, though. It's just that when something doesn't turn out how I want, I'm usually far too angry to be able to even get to the tears; I just silently rage.
StarPuppy's hair honestly turned out super cute, though. We are our own worst critics.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’ve done it 3 times just buzzed it off
I'm hitting temptation length ✂️
Her hair actually turned out great in my opinion. To be honest I feel like it was the turtle neck and blazer that may have given her the old lady vibes, not the hair though
Valencia Ing. Seriously her outfit didn’t do her justice. Poor baby I feel her pain when she said “I look like an old lady” 🥺🥺😩
@@lilndnfeather yeah🥺
I agree.
Deffo the outfit
Jesus loves ya
I’m I the only one who loved the way her hair looked?....
It’s pretty!
I loved it out and pined up. Like it was cutee
Same but I mean like the best my natural hair ever looked was probably in this lil ugly bun my mom be putting my hair in when it’s out idk if she think it look good but it be having me embarrassed
That what I came here to say! Like, it came out good!
Same! Like went from pretty Grandma, to pretty auntie. Either way, ur hair was great ^-^ bantu knot outs are a cruel being indeed
This is one of my favorite videos on TH-cam. Let’s pretend for a minute that her hair looks terrible (which is a stretch- her hair looks great). One of the problems with social media is that people present their best selves, their good hair days, the great makeover, the great vacations, the astounding weight loss, etc. This makes a lot of people feel inadequate and depressed, not realizing that what’s presented is highly edited.
Showing disappointment is rare and honest. Not only does it denote strength, but it’s also very helpful to people who are struggling, since we all face a lot of disappointments before finding the right formula for success. That’s what makes this video great. Thanks!
I agree with all this.
So...
*no ones gonna talk about how f-ing beautiful she is!?*
This is my first time watching her and she's so fucking delightful I swear
So beautiful
So freaking chocolatey beautiful!
Your username 😂😂😂😭
She’s a model - so it’s implied
If you ain’t never cried or gotten explicably angry while styling your hair then no you CANNOT wear box braids matter in fact you cannot have an opinion on black hair😂😂
welp, there goes my plans to rock pastel pink box braids when I take leave this summer😅
FR 😭
Felt that one in my soul and I’m a man, but I get it tho. That’s exactly why I don’t understand interracial relationships. Who can relate to us the way we can relate to each other????
@@06Kabal it's called understanding, respecting, and learning each others' cultures😓 my fiancé and I may not share the same skin colour, food, or even native language but that doesn't mean we can't be in a relationship
To each his own. I’d rather not go through all that work.
I think it looks so beautiful!! I think it was just the outfit choice, if you wore a gold satin dress For example that would be soooooo wowww
Here’s a trick if the hair isn’t budging to you try a different outfit!
So true! She killed it in that pink dress at the end with the same hairstyle
LET ME TELL YOU..... the above statement is sooo friggin true . When I have installed crotchet curly bushy hair, it doesn't go with every outfit.. No ma'm
The raw emotion in this video is definitely going to help so many Black girls who feel frustration with their natural hair. I know for sure it would've helped me, because I remember getting sooo frustrated with my hair when I was younger and just not understanding why & feeling so alone with my anger. So thank you so much for this! Finally feeing like someone sees me!
so sad cause the whole time I was screaming "it's okay it's coming out cute!" and you were not having it. I, being a black girl in her 20's, totally understand the love-hate relationship with our naptural hair especially since a lot of styles make us look like aunties and old ladies. And you're right, in society and mind full of expectations, it can be so discouraging. But one must learn that your appearance doesn't make one beautiful (although it helps), but your confidence is. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing the reality about not only bantu knots but also birthdays.
I think it's cute too, it can be turned into a fro hawk but I understand where she is coming from
Omg you're so beautiful 💓
The Ballad Of The Queen Don’t make assumptions.
It's kinda comforting to know I'm not the only frustrated natural who cries over their hair. I hope you feel better 😭
U're not alone💖 we all have cried because of out beautiful hair that sometimes just makes us crazy💖
Girl amen to thatttt.
I cried a lot of times too ur not alone💀
same i thought it was only me
This is me too😭
I hate my birthday, and I cry every year. I hate trying to make it special, because it never is, I'm always disappointed and it's always a failure. I'm a pisces too.
Damn I felt that in my soul. I'm a libra though 🤷🏿♂️
Capricorn here 🤚🏾 Same.
Lol same😩 I’m a Pisces too.
Libra here .. same 😩
same here. i’m a cancer 😭
I wish black woman knew how beautiful they are. Her hair and look was Vogue cover worthy. She’s doing so good for her age despite what she may think. You are so special sis I’m about to cry writing this because as black women we are held to such high expectations so we hold even higher expectations for ourselves, ones that are impossible to achieve without giving up our peace and happiness to get there.
My dumb ass was really frantically reassuring my computer screen " girl look it, you look cute!!!!" like she could hear me. Feel better sweets
I hugged my laptop several times! 🤣😂
I honestly saw NOTHING wrong with it. She's a very pretty girl - she could shave her head and still look pretty. But honestly, hair problems come in all races. I am white and have been in tears my ENTIRE life because of my hair. My father's side of the family were all blessed with thick locks and there I was with ridiculously thin hair - can't even make a braid. My hair wouldn't even grow past my shoulders if I tried. Her hair, by comparison, is thick.
Jasmine VJA, So was I. I said out loud, "Awww, Danielle, it looks cute!! Dont cry ." I know the feeling..
Your hair looks healthier
alyssa stroud right??🤗🙌🏿
@@TheStarPuppy 30th is in two months. I felt your breakdown on a soul level, because I'm a decade older and it's gotten worse. It doesnt get better. But I'll be damned if anyone, my self included, talks shit about my actual accomplishments because of things that were unrelated to myself, such as economy and healthcare access. Were here for you, and you are a riveting success, whether you see it or not.
Right her hair looks so healthy!
@@TheStarPuppy you are beautiful❤
"I Decided" . . . Best phrase you can learn in your 20's and hold it tight until you leave this realm. You may not always feel, but you always get to decide. Unfortunately, we are taught to feel first and make decisions based upon that. And that would be cool if we were not so over stimulated on BS and conditioned to be so insecure and conditioned to constantly compare ourselves to things that don't even exist outside of a script or a good PR team. But when you Decide to be happy first; decide to love every bit of yourself (which is so much more than the physical) first; decide to enjoy life first, and you keep deciding first until your feelings and your emotions become aligned . . . When you Decide first how you want to feel and then behave accordingly, all I can say is get ready ❤ Too many people never learn this and spend too much time suffering.
Kwanza Yates yesss!
any tips on how to do this?
I know the feeling. My bantu knots looked just like this and I turned into a mohawk pinned up. You learn and grow. Breaks my heart to see her cry....😪
Literally cried this morning because my twists weren’t dry and my twist out came out horrible 😭
@Keisha Smith Awwww.. 😣. I'm sorry girl... SMH!
Keisha Smith I also hate when that happens
Felt this comment
Me too
That's literally the reason why i've just stopped unbraiding the twist...
Your curls were poppin. Don’t let one hairstyle ruin YOUR special day! So, FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS MAMASSS🥳❤️
I thought they looked amazing too! Maybe if it was fluffed a little more at the top it would be more her style
@TuLocalPendejo Your profile pic gives me life
as a black person who understands your struggle, i LOVE that look 😭😭
Because of quarantine, I've banned myself from weave because I thought I was crazy to know how to slay wigs but not take the time to get through the adversities I have with my real hair, which is because I've abandoned my hair. Don't cry love, you're not alone. And you look so so beautiful, sophisticated, & elegant! You killed the Bantu Knots!
I don't know what you're seeing but I see a bomb ass hairstyle on a gorgeous girl
Same I'm confusion.
Right!!! I would put some pins or something on the side or both sides. That hurt me when that baby girl cried. The Granny in ne wanted to hug her. Aww.
Sister Stina same 🥺. i when she was pointing from the right side to the left i was so confused because they both looked cute
Sister Stina really
Ikr, her hair came out better than mine. My Bantu nots always look shot, don’t even attempt them anymore lol
I loved it though 🥺 gosh you’re beautiful and your EDITING >>>> ♥️ hope you still had an amazing birthday!
Gurl when you are ACTUALLY, literally, biologically old, you'll look back at these videos at laugh at how "old" you thought you looked!
alagalag Yep. I turn 50 next week and it’s really getting me down. I’ll switch places in a heartbeat.
Happy birthday beautiful
Lol we're black. We'll be aiight
I know this was a couple months ago. But totally felt your frustration. Here’s a big virtual hug!
I literally said “oh baby” when I saw the watered eyes. I feel your heart because I can relate to every word you said but YOUR HAIR WAS AND IS STUNNING. STOP IT!!! LOVE YOURSELF BABY~~
"i look like a little old lady" this touched me😭
Girl yes! I laughed cause I've been there! Tears and all 😭😭😭😭
Well, if she looks like a little old lady, she looks damn good for her age. Get over it, it's only hair. The hair she was born with. Be happy it is not falling out - humans are much too vain!!!
Yesss . “I’m like awwwww come here babyyyyy! You’re MY little old lady !”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes! This happens to me on every “special” occasion!! I’ve just decided, don’t try anything new on special occasions! That works better...sometimes🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️
This! With my thick 4c hair I had to resolve to not try anything new before a special event of occasion. It rarely meets my expectations which only frustrates me because I end up having to "fix" it or change a planned outfit... even if it ends up cute overall. It's the emotional rollercoaster for me.
I've learned to only experiment with new styles when I have 5 days and plenty of time.
@@ChicagoOwl EXACTLY!!!!!! Very well said!!!!
I appreciate how genuine this was this was definitely FELT I’ve had several fail birthdays and Bantu knots 😭 happens to the best of us
Just want to let you know from this side of the camera your hair was very cute. Maybe it wasn't what you expected but looked great, glad to hear you had a good birthday anyway!
Facts
I remember slamming and breaking a whole Denman brush on the floor cause I was so frustrated with my tangled 4c hair. I feel this video HEAVY. ): Natural hair is a whole committed relationship!
Back in, somewhere between '96 to '98, I think, I was if I remember right. I was early 20s I think. Never mind slamming the Goody brush that was like Denman back then, my floor was carpeted, but the brush snapped in my hair when I tried to brush it. Cannot remember if it was that, or a wooden handle one. 😂😂😂😂😂
Get the EZdetangling brush, I guarantee 100% it will change your life
I do not use a denman brush for detangling. I use a tangle teaser brush. Have you ever tried aunt Jackie's knot on my watch detangling therapy? It works like a champ on my hair.
Watching you, I am reliving the days where I tried to be happy with my 4C, low density, porosity- all of it! Now, I suffer an auto-immune disease, where I am near to balding on the top and sides but thick in the back. I wear wigs now, when I go out and my hair when I’m home, which is most of the time. I am so proud of you- as if that means something- because you were strong enough to post this. Cheers, friend!
I cried today, watching this. It helped me a lot too though. Thank you for being so honest on camera and with the process of learning about your emotions and ur hair
I truly had no idea that someone felt this much frustration when it comes to their hair besides myself. I truly thought I was alone. The rawness in this video truly helped me to realize I am not the only one. I honestly believe your hair came out beautiful, if only I could have gotten mine as beautiful as yours. Thank you for the rawness, thank you for being bold enough to show the absolutely REAL you. It's beautiful to witness, sometimes I feel these youtuber's show the "good side" of 4c but leave out the struggles of the rest of us.
Sameeee. Im not 4c (I think im 4a or 4b??? Idkk its confusing) but i have really short and sparse density hair. Its so thin I can't wear my own hair in a pony tail or even in an afro or just blowdried. I go to college next year and idk how im gonna last or what im gonna do without my mom (a hairstylist) to do my hair. I can do everyone's hair, except for mines bc its so short and stubborn. Im so losttt
That's good you know how to work your hair you pull the size in and it look fabulous good job happy birthday again gorgeous
@@jaidinnnmcc4666 ykr my hair is just a long thin mess
I don’t want to invalidate your feelings, but GIRL, that style was cute as hell!!!
1:04 Her hair naturally forms a heart shape...that's so cute!
I understand this frustration and the tears so much. Thank you for being so real about the 4c hair struggle. I have absolutely no regrets about going natural, but that doesn't mean that I instantly love my 4c hair. Trying to replicate the twist outs, bantu knot outs and every other 4c tutorial from TH-cam always left me in tears because none of them EVER worked for me. Also, your "failed" bantu knot out looked SO much better than anything I ever tried.
i hate that you cried but CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW CLEAR YOUR FACE IS LIKE I-
lol FACTS
Girl, my hair always betray me, it’s the WORST! I cry sometimes too 😩
Kelsie J your hair in your profile picture is beautiful! ❤️ Is that a Bantu knot or Flexi rods?
Imma cry over how nice your hair looks
Karmella Sekna it’s a twist n curl. I did a video on my channel
Emi my hair hates me sometimes
Ever notice how good your hair looks when you’re not going anywhere? But the minute you have an event to go to, it refuses to look right 😢😢.
This hit so close to home. My heart just broke when you were taking out those knots. So many times I end leaving the house with a bun and a deflated attitude. Like it's hair it shouldn't matter this much, but it does. Thank you for this upload. I hate that you feel that way but it's a good perspective on how to bounce back. :)
I loved everything about this video. Thank you for sharing this real, raw, emotion. I’m not a pisces but I can relate to your 20’s really getting to you. But I just wanted to let you know it gets better. Also, you are truly and authentically beautiful!!
Our hair sometimes makes us cry cause we try to make it look different all the time. We carry all these expectations about how we should style it and how it should look that we forget to respect our hair for what it is. We still have a long road to fully accept our natural hair, especially 4c
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 U said it All, products Junkie, hours of twisting for a twist out just to have curly hair that we don't have...
Deep talk. But at least now we are wearing them natural no relaxer anymore, we are on the good path yet💘
@@yourenotmydaaad6575 we will get there. I have 4 type hair and i sometimes cry bc i want 3c hair or straight hair. Then i see my hair in it's natural state just doing what it wants to do then i think....if we weren't born in this society would we really hate our hair? I wish i could accept my hair for how god made it but sometimes it's hard.
I have type 5B hair. And yes, I know there is no such thing as type 5B hair.
@@stanfatou2002 indeed our hair need a lot of attention and work, and seeing how easy it is for the neighbors to manipulate or style theirs, we can feel as if we have the wrong type of hair. But no, we just have to accept that we are different in our own way. There is no other race in the world with our type of hair, we are unique.
When you broke out in to tears I could hear my heart break. You have beautifull hair, I know cuz we have the same texture (very very VERYY 4C!!) AND IT IS THE WORST SOMETIMES, but the beauty in loving your hair lies in your hands. Where most people see you with a cute hairstyle, you keep seeing the grandma look, while thats my look too 😂😂 leta own it together ❤️❤️
I’m so glad I found you. The realist about natural hair. I cry every time I do my hair.
Failure also depresses me.
Awwwww StarPuppy!!! Your tears just melt my heart because I know the feeling. I'm still struggling to wear my natural hair. Everytime I try a style, I'm disappointed and I go back to hiding behind wigs and braids. My friends and husband always try to say something nice but you can tell by their faces that I failed. But let's keep trying no matter how difficult it gets to love it hair! Also, thank you for this channel! It's so needed! #faithfulsubbie
When she said bantu knot out I thought “oh girl you played yourself “ those have a 90% fail rate
Personally I’ve never gotten it right either lmao
Lol i tried it one time and never again 😂.
I would never be able to put in the time for a bantu knot out
The only time they work is when your hair is already STRETCHED and when u use mouse or something. I personally thought hers came out not half bad tbh
Tried it twice and that was enough stress for me... 😬
Look at the bright side: You have the most covetable eyebrows and eyes. 😇
Covetable?
And voice, personality and spirit! She's so amazing!
And skin
@@aliciaosei6408 ay same namee
Spirit And....smile. Bright teeth soul skin and eyes.
I felt this in my soul ❣️ you dealt with yourself so well gurl!
You are inspiration, truly x
I'm also at that point in my 20's where I cringe my birthday. Your hair came out gorgeous
I literally just put in microlocs because dealing with my hair makes me cry, and then I start thinking of other things and it goes on
I'd love to get more info on microlinks if you can share
E N ngl there are times I think of getting locs but even though my thin fro don’t do me right at times,I’m attached to the afro 😭
E N I just got SisterLocs!! E N I C U Gurl!!! Lol
@@tamikaaugustine2313 Detangling took forever and I got tired of worrying about my hair so that's why I have traditional locs. The only thing I ever worry about is getting retwists done, it's amazing.
I just got started locs put in and I’m relieved my the low maintenance of it all! I can’t wait for them to start maturing into full on dreads ☺️
You remind me of my daughter. I wish she loved herself the way I love. The world has beat her down and she's only 11. I will tell you like I tell her, "You are beautiful". Don't lose sight of your accomplishments and the sunshine that you bring to the world. I'm glad you finally decided to have fun. 😊
I'm so late to your channel, I have been binge watching you like crazy! I've started to embrace my natural hair again and I just want to say thank you for being so real and vulnerable. I had a break down the other day about my hair and YES being in your 20s is extremely difficult mentally. But I am so proud of you for being real with yourself and enjoying your bday anyway!
I love your videos so much. You give me a fuck ton of confidence for hiding things I knew about myself 10 years ago, and felt so ashamed to admit. Thank you for showing yourself, and encouraging us to show ourselves.
When she shows her hair. It looks gorgeous to me.
Well, I AM "a little old lady" and wish my hair could look even 10% as beautiful as yours looked. Love your vids and your content. Happy Birthday from ALL of your 144K subbies.
Oop
Biotin and msm pills
And Jamaican black castor oil in the hair
I swear by it
Ok boomer
And we're now 147k as I just joined lol
Girl, I love your souls honesty. And I love that you feel your feelings and talk to yourself. You’ve got so much more growth to go though, but you’re so far ahead of so many others. It gets easier as you get older. I promise!
YOU ARE EVERYTHING - POPPED IN FOR HAIR INSPIRATION AND LEFT WITH A THERAPY SESSION - LOVE YOUR HONESTY FR
OMG! My heart broke for you. Sweet sweet girl. Don’t cryyyyyyyyyy. No no no! You are so wonderful, dynamic, intelligent, creative, and so wrong. You look great!!
Raz M. Yasssssssss!! I completely agree!
Your hair came out beautiful, Danielle. Don't be so hard on yourself, and most importantly, don't be so hard on your hair.
It is beautiful as it is.
Try bantu knotted (flat) twists next time, I'm sure you'll love them.
Sava is Bob now
@@Selkies_not_Sirens Bob? Who is Bob?
Edit: OMG! I just remembered the live broadcast and finally caught the reference 😂😂😂
you look like a 70s heartthrob and i love it. A hair accessory i think could tie in the look really well! the turtle neck-jacket-hair is on-trend-vintage-amazingness and your pulling it off beautifully
Right🥺 she looks like a 70’s spy I want the film now
This same thing happened to me on my birthday last year and it really helps when you’re friends are supportive but the hair came out absolutely gorgeous ❤️😍
I know she wasn't happy about it but I'm mad because it just looks so gorgeous to me☹
Maybe next time you'll like it Danielle
Yeah it looks really adorable
Right? I loved it
Im dying laughing because this was exactly me in my 20s.....Dont be so hard on yourself sweetness....you look gorgeous...meanwhile you're super entertaining and i'll definitely subscribe. Hugs and lots of love
did it get better?
@@Nonyah123 the journey to self love is painful but also a highly rewarded one.
And yes, it does get better...
girl, you making me tear up over here seeing you cry and I just stumbled upon you! lol but you are so very beautiful and I admire your honesty with yourself.
You're so raw, authentic and beautiful! This is the very first video I have seen from you.. and you make yourself so relatable and vulnerable to your viewers. I'm deff subscribing. 💜 now
It’s almost funny if it wasn’t so sad. I just wanted to hit your hands and say wake up. You are gorgeous and have beautiful hair why can’t you see what I see. There is something deeper we don’t see that only you can fix but I love your videos and would trade hair with you any day. Happy birthday queen 👑 glad it ended happy. I always say too much 💜🥰💜🥰💜🥰
Sweetykakes Moebetter I need someone like you to hit my hands every now and again.
Bad Fluffnugget!!...making our pretty puppy cry on her b-day!😡
No, I always say too much! :-) want to go back and forth with this no I did , no I did , no I did, no I I know I did! :-)
This was so sweet 🙂
Zeeena Hearts awh we all do. 🥰
You don't owe us a video. You don't owe us anything. Take time if you need to queen
It's ok boo, my bantus never came out right either. That 4c hair will do it everytime. But i personally have grow to love my hair now. I decided to loc it up and ive never been more comfortable with my 4c, edges and all. I think u look adorable btw but i have had this happen and i too cried, ALOT😂😂😂
The hair came out great. Thank you for sharing this. I never taught there people like me out there struggling with their thin 4chari. Thank you just know you are a beautiful and strong black girl
“My ends looked like abstract art” omgggg I laughed so hard hahaha bc this happens to me all the time! The rest of the Bantu knot?? Cute! The ends?? Up for interpretation!! 😂😂😭😭😭
That took me out! Lol
.... WHY?? HOW??? Are you one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen? Like wow, you gotta be a model or something, You are stunning! xx
You're so cute I love your positivity
She actually is a model😊 she is quite a beauty
O.M.G. I laughed so hard that I cried but wept because I felt this in my SOUL. I can't explain, but you have been the ONLY person I know that completely understands this hair and ALL that goes with it. Thank you for being you and I thank your hair!
You are literally me when hairstyles don't end up the way I envision. I literally BALL.
Pisces if I want to 😂😂 I felt that.
Thug Drina Unapologetically 😭
When you said “the weight of expectations” I literally started crying with you. You should have heard me yelling at my tv telling you how beautiful you are! I love the way your hair came out girl😍 I feel you tho you wanna look your best especially on your birthday but baby you looked gorgeous!! Thank you for sharing this with us💙😫
I love the honesty in your video and girl your hair was flawless, wish my hair would turn out that pretty
I’m so glad I was suggested your channel. This is the second video I’ve seen of yours and I subscribed 😌 I love how real you are, how similar to my struggles and you are literally my quarantine comedy.
I gave up on Bantu knot outs a long time ago myself lol but yours actually turned out better than any of mine ever had. I felt your pain
This makes me feel better knowing I’m
not the only one struggling and crying over my hair 😀 because I definitely was close to breaking down last night because of it
You actually just reminded me of how frustrated I was 2 years ago when I started my natural hair journey. I would cry alone in my room because I knew I was doing everything wrong to my hair because I didn't have enough money to buy all these fancy natural hair products I saw on most youtube channels. My hair would fall out and was extremely dry and flaky. At that point I was so furious I wasn't looking like the girls on Instagram and on TH-cam. Now do I only realise I was being unreasonable and too hard on myself at the time but I think it was necessary for me to be in that state because I really had a goal and I was willing to do anything to achieve it. Now I can actually just reflect and say comparison really did steal my joy. Clearly not all things work out the way we want them to. I'm so glad I accidentally found your channel today. I'm just as weird, crazy, goofy and and an emotional person as you are. 😎✌
Girl all your hairstyles are so beautiful, literally, everyone of them. Thank you for making the content you do and helping women love their 4c hair ❤❤
This looks SO good 🥺 my Bantu knots have never looked this good ( still learning ) but you give me hope 💗
Aww Danielle sometimes you really do just have to cry it's okay, I cried the day before my birthday (I'm a Pisces too lool) and I felt so embarrassed bc I'm trying to be more "mature" but I realised I had to give myself a break, crying doesn't mean defeat or weakness it's just part of the process, then you carry on.
I'm 42 and a Pisces too. "Maturity" is sometimes highly overrated ESPECIALLY on your birthday. ( mine was 2/21)
I'm a Pisces too, I've been trying so hard not to cry but I broke about a week ago and I've learned that that's okay...sometimes we just gotta get the tears out to feel better
Diphrence same I’m a Pisces too and Ive been struggling with containing my emotions cause I don’t want to seem like a “cry baby”
I'm a pisces (2/21/1985) also. I have a emotional crisis at least every few days and some days i dont even know why. 🤦♀️😂
I feel this so much! I struggle with my birthday every year because it's like your own personal new year! I have always let my mood stay down but seeing you choose to have a good birthday makes me feel like I have the power to choose as well. So THANK YOU STARPUPPY! Happy Birthday too!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎈🎈🎈🎈
A birthday is "like your own personal new year"... wow. I never thought of it that way, but it's true.
I like that, so true "your own personal new year..." You just thought that up or saw it somewhere? Anyways amazing.
I struggle on my birthdays as well..it sucks! “Your own personal new year” is the perfect explanation. You only get one a year and when it comes along it’s like you have this childlike feeling. It’s supposed to be the happiest, funnest most splendid and perfect day that you get ONCE A YEAR! And when it’s not..it’s like..😞😰😭
@@qtstar9479 it kinda just came to me as an epiphany type thing lol I'm sure someone else has said it before though
"like a personal new year" you nailed it. Im a Pisces as well (just had my bday the 26) and of course i caught myself getting too introspective and having a cry over it. this is the first year that i wasn't super sad on my birthday, but when i caught ms]yself reflecting on my life i realized what was going on
"See you next time?" Yes! This video was relatable on so many levels and that is the reason I subscribed!
This is so relatable! I’ve cried so many times in frustration over my hair.. sending love xxx
I actually love that younger girls have you. You went through all the feelings Ive been through when I first went natural and tried all the cute styles women would make look so easy on youtube. Thanks for showing the truth, sometimes you put so much into a style and get disappointed and its totally ok to cry about it, but you did what a powerful girl does. You felt your feelings, then turned it around and had a good day. Beautiful. Happy Belated Birthday lady!
😂😂 I’m so sorry “I look like a little old lady” I’m wrong for laugh but you’re too hard on yourself 😪 happy belated birthday you looked great

My hair has been loc'd for almost 3 months, but your videos keep coming up on my suggestion list. I think I just needed this energy in my life 😅
This brings me back to when my mom used to do my hair and I hated it but I've grown too love my big curly mane. You are beautiful.
😢im so sorry. I’m losing my hair on the right/ front side and my hair line is receding because of alopecia. Trying to style my hair sucks and I just cry. My hair just reminds me that I have to find a style that will hide my huge first sized bald spot but I can’t hide my hairline except with bangs but bangs give me acne so it’s just frustrating. Wigs have given me the confidence back but I really really love my natural hair I love playing in it it’s so soft and unique. I can’t put the combs in my hair from wigs on my right side anymore as a glueless method because there’s no hair there for it to clip to anymore so I’ve been getting my wigs sewn on to keep it in place. And my natural hair almost never come out right. And when it does it just gets destroyed that same night. My natural hair is beautiful don’t get me wrong and it’s very healthy for the most part. But I feel your pain I’m glad the rest of your day was better. Happy birthday ❤️
Feeling u on alopecia thing..
briana mcguire take a hair supplement call shen min it helped me i was going completely bald behing my left ear and it helped me!!!!!!
I can relate. I have another medical condition that causes hair loss. On top of that, genetics is not on my side. So on top of dealing with hairstyle failures, I have to deal with hair loss. I can't even wear wigs now because the slightest bit of pressure gives me headaches. I just don't know what to do anymore. But I just try to focus on my health and hopefully my hair will grow fuller.
peaches I agree with you I actually just started running every Sunday since I can’t grow my hair back I can at least take care of the rest of my body
I have alopecia too and I know exactly what you are saying. Trying to hide the bald spots, I started wearing head wraps constantly. I ended up messing my edges up. Sometimes you can’t win.
“It’s my birthday and I cry if I want to, cry if I want to, PISCES if I want to”... that alone was so deep, I had to subscribe.
I relate to you crying because of the weight of expectations. I'm very hard on myself and hate failure too! Thanks for being genuine.
"My ends looked like abstract art." I feel you so hard on that one. I'm loc'd now but whenever I did a failed style on my 4c hair (pretty much every time), I had the same kind of hair combs I would use to scoop it back so it looked decent or throw a scarf on. I know it can be really disappointing but you looked fabulous. I love your editing.
What you said about birthdays, i FELT that. Don't cry sis, we love you
Enjoy your 20’s. You’ll be 30, 40, 50 before you know it and wishing you were young again. You are beautiful, don’t worry sweetie.
This is beautiful and so are you. Thank you for sharing such a genuine and vulnerable moment and also showing us the realness. Hairstyles do not always come out the way that we plan, and sometimes it takes a little more effort to love ourselves and what we see in the mirror even when everyone else sees only the best. I am inspired by how you allowed yourself to feel what you were feeling and then made the decision to have an awesome birthday. :)
It did. Your honesty is beautiful and so are you.
Awww hun! Have I had those days! Ugh we Pisces can be some emotional folks even for stuff no one else but ourselves can understand. I will be 41 on the 6th and have no idea how I got here!😦😭🤣 You are fantabulous girl!
Virgos too.. can realte to 110% 💯💀😭
@@okuuur1640 yes I relate to Pisces way more than I want to think we are soooo emotional.
sister signs 👆🏾
Just wanted to say you’re so great. You have an amazing personality and your videos are cheering me up through one of the darkest periods of my life ❤️
Thanks for your transparency and being authentically who God made you to be. Your rawness is a blessing to those of us like you. We see the spirit in you, and it's beautiful! Keep shining StarPuppy!
I think your hair turned out beautifully and your skin is so glowy and clear
