    Traction alopecia had me crying like crazy last year. Went to the dermatologist she wanted to charge me $600 for PRP treatments, said I needed 18. Researched like crazy, started dermarollimg my edges every other day, using blue magic grease in my hair again like when I was a little girl, sulfur 8 and Virgin hair fertilizer, taking cod liver oil capsules and using a headband underneath my wigs to stop the rubbing against the scalp. Also no heat whatsoever I air dry my hair when I wash and do silicone mix deep treatment. It's been 4 months and the edges the dermatologist told me would never come back because the follicles are dead...are springing back like crazy. Also forgot to add..I always drank alot of water, put I started drinking even more water every day. U have to moisturize inside and outside. And i also switched to iodized table salt at home.

I think there's a misconception that we're the only ones who have to spend time on our hair. Trust me, ANY woman with nice hair spends lots of time on it.

    Ladies, please keep in mind that as you age, hair follicles get smaller, and sebum production declines. Also, if you are wearing wigs for protective styling, the comb inserts can also cause damage and thinning to your edges. The PRO is they can be removed beforehand. 💆🏽‍♀️

      Wigs are a good protective style but I find that most women neglect the hair underneath. They glue it to their edges then they use combs in the back which is breaking the hair. I no longer use adhesives for my wigs nor do I use combs & I moisturize & seal daily

      Yesterday I made a video to post so that I can force my self to be accountable. And also do 8t with others for the encouragement... cause it is hard waiting for hair to grow back... we can do this just need a hair reg that works for us and get rid of stress. Make sure our iron not low ladies...found out mine was very low at the bargaining of the year...been green hiding a lot. I got on the we can using fenugreek and aloe permit oil black Jamaican cataroil.. And taking hair nail bit..increasing water intake.. I will try to post my first video today...

      It depends a lot in how you put the braids in. I for one don’t braid right, do a really good protein treatment/ deep conditioner before I put them in and leave my edges out. I also make sure I spray and butter my hair and scalp every three days. Green beauty actually has a video on how to properly take care of your hair in braids

    • @teresai1877
      @teresai1877 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      It depends on how tight they are, how clean the style is kept, and how long they are kept. If they are too tight, then they are less protective. Also, I wouldn't keep braids in more than a month. (When my hair isn't in braids, I do a wash once a week though.)

      I've had box braids 3 times in life. 2 out of 3 of those times I've lost my edges. Once was regular box and once was with knotless. Both times the braids were butt length. I guess that length is too heavy for me

      Nope! I stopped with box braids a year ago and went nearly a year without marley twists (I wore them for 2 weeks a few months ago and regretted it). My hair has grown more in the past year than it has in the past 5+ years and my new growth is strong and thick. No more box braids for me, I'll stick to my headband wigs.

    This video is SO timely. I agree that it is important to first identify the problem. My issue was that I was flat twisting the front of my hair week after week after week. That manipulation and tension did a number on my edges and I didn't notice the thinning until it was too late. I will be taking your tips and isolating the entire area, giving it special attention.

    I've learnt to leave my hair alone. I wear it in twists. Scooping and spreading didn't work for me, my edges (frontal) really thinned. I also don't like remoisturizing my 4c hair because it 'fuzzes' up and forms single strand knots even when in twists...Still learning and unlearning but for now, my hair prefers being handled after washing plus the herbal hot oil treatment is beneficial (thanks for that) - my hair loses less moisture. Working with weekly washes + herbal oil treatments at the moment

    Aging is inevitable. For most people, your hair will thin as you age. Adding light exercise, good loving sex, lean protein, healthy carbs, lots of vegetables and fruit, and healthy fats can help maintain fullness of your hair after 35. Straightening your hair a little can help air get to your scalp better, especially if you have dense 4C hair

This how (sectioning off from the rest of my hair and keeping moisturised) I grew my nape back about 10 years ago and yesterday after washing the real protein treatment and herbal oil out I decided that I will do the same with the front of my hairline.

    Can you do a video for naturals with 4c, fine strands, and low density? I know you did a similar video but it didnt provide much insight to those of us with the fine strand low density combination. Info I'd like to know:
    -Is it possible to achieve lengths longer than APL or BSL with this hair type?
    -insight on dealing with hair thats see through when blown out or in an afro being mistaken for damaged ends. This is a common issue with this hair type combo. When we do blow outs or rock a fro, it looks as though we need a trim because the low density makes it see through. I realized I've been trimming off the very length I've been retaining or more than I should because of this misconception. Then again, I'm sure this hair type is indeed more prone to split ends and such. So it's hard to tell anyway!
    -whether or not it's best we protective style most of the time and which protective styles are best for our hair.
    -how porosity, especially high porosity makes this hair type combination especially hard to retain or more prone to breakage.
    -products, methods, hair styles and other things we could do to either reinforce our strands, aid in retention and fullness or make the ends appear fuller.
    So little info for those of us with this hair type. WE NEED YOUR HELP! I wouldnt be surprised if youd have to interview ladies first in order to really get an idea on how to make this hair type thrive.
    Thankfully there are a few youtubers we can turn to. But very few.

    I watched the video about spreading the sebum onto the rest of your hair. I am fascinated with this. I just wanted to point out that it could be your slightly acidic pH spritz that may be contributing to your hair thinning. I wouldn't leave that in on your hair. I use diluted lemon juice as a pre-shampoo mask on my scalp for about 10 mins but I rinse it out thoroughly and then shampoo it out. It's not good for your hair to leave it in at all (Yannie the Locologist).

    My edges got damaged in my pre-teens/teens due to wearing extensions. From that point on I said never again. Even just leaving my hair alone for years didn't encourage them to grow back. I can't message the area because the hairs that do grow are so weak that gentle massages will cause the hairs to shed. 😭 I've started to turn to herbs and am starting to see some progress. I'm not holding out for full coverage, but I'm looking forward to seeing what mine look like in two years, as well.

      Beautiful Dreamer section off your nape area. Don’t cover with the shower cap. Get it wet in the shower everyday. You could shampoo, use conditioner every so often but WET it. Most importantly, apply grease!!! twirl or twist depending on length. You could also tuck it away in a bigger sectioned hair. My hair has grown practicing this method. Work for edges too.

    Separating edges can breaks the edges off. Comb it with the rest of the hair. The making baby hair isn't cutting it. Blend your edges with the rest of the hair. I hadn't heard of a major hair line issue with the women I know personally until the start separating their edges away from the other hair. Before, their edges length was no different from the crown of their hair. That's my opinion on some of the edge issues.

    What I have learned from the natural hair community in the 2 years since I started paying attention to my hair:
    1. No weave, no braids with extensions.
    2. No heat, no colouring or dyeing.
    3. Do your hair in loose, large plaits
    4. Wash it every month or so, no combing
    5. The revolution will not be televised.
    Conclusion: Touch your hair (at your own risk!!) twice a year.

After 9 months of transitioning, I am now fully natural....thank you Jesus...it took my hair thinning in the crown to wake up & know my days using any chemical at all was over if I wanted to save my strands. Finding natural styles with low maintenance until wash day is working for me. It takes time upfront but last until your next wash day. My style has been finger coiling.
