I went to my second appointment today, here are a few answers to some common questions you guys may have. 1. The injections: The name of the injections are Kenalog, its a steroid 2. The Oil: Unfortunately, she was not able to give a proper name to the oil/droplets. The oil is compound meaning the lab mixes a few things together to make it. I'll try to find out the components of the mix and show the label in my next update. 3. The dermatoligist office I go to is Parkland Dermatology in Parkland Florida. (Parkland is in south Florida) Let me know if you have any other questions, I'll answer them in my update.
You are my inspiration behind not being afraid to cut my hair off and start over. I have issues with my edges as well (One side of my head is worse than the other too). I have used the doo gro mixture consistently and microneedled at home, and I am seeing such massive results. Thank you 😢❤
Wow!!! I've watched more than a few of your videos and Yasss!!!! Your edges have gotten significantly fuller and look healthy too! If you can, what's the name of the oil your dermatologist prescribed? Also to achieve your results, did you have to use the oil before and after receiving those injections? I have a dermatologist appt Monday and will definitely reference your before and after video!!🎉❤ It looks great Sis!!
Ohhhh noooooooooo! I'm replying late because I had my appt today and just got the name of the shots. The name of the injections are Kenalog. I have more before and after pics, I''m trying to piece that video together. I hope your appt went well, sorry for the late reply!
To be honest, I think you should finish the shots for the six months and see because I definitely see improvement. Do one thing or another don’t do both, but I would definitely stick with going to get the injections because I definitely see big improvement.
I so happy for you and your progress. What shots did you get? Steroids or PRP??? I was gonna suggest PRP. You got great results. Can’t wait to see after your second round. I say pay for the professional micro needling. You’re getting great results so it’s not a lost of money for you.
You see that’s a great question. I’ll ask more questions next week cuz I was staring at the needle the whole time and didn’t ask anything lol for some reason I think they were steroid but I’ll confirm.
@@tamithecreator okay… if she drew your blood and spinned it down it’s PRP. If she drew it up from a vail it’s most likely steroids. I’m so happy to see the results for you. When you report back it will help me too.
@@fuzzyspirals I'm back! I had my appointment earlier and was able to get more concrete information. The injection is a steroid called Kenalog. Its working so far with no negative side effects but I'm curious as to why you said you would suggest PRP? Have you gotten it done?
Thanks for sharing! I followed your recommendations and scheduled an appt with Parkland dermatology. Got my first scalp injections. Do you wash the serum out the next day or leave it in?
Omg!! I’m so happy for you! I had an appt on Monday and was told a few subscribers started coming in🥹 I hope they work for you like they worked for me. What serum are you referring to so I can answer correctly? Between my doo gro mix/the prescription drops that she offers I don’t wash any out. I go in with a clean scalp, get my injections and then wash my hair 2 weeks later. Hopefully I answered correctly. Keep me updated on your journey 🥹
just a heads up i heard mielle causes hair loss since the creator sold it. and i also heard it causes cancer ?? (that im not too sure abt that tho) i think if it works well for you then it should be no problem because i know different products have different effects on everyone, but watch out
@@tamithecreatoroh ok I was wondering if me wearing my wigs would be detrimental to growth. I’m going to definitely try your methods and advice. Thank you for responding!❤
Yes, girl!!! You have made such great progress with your edges! I’m shocked at the difference one round of injections made. They’re truly getting full. Your hair looks healthy and strong. Keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll get that length you want fast. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!! And those injections are the truthhhhhhh omg. I’m TERRIFIED of needles but I am actually looking forward to my appointment next week.
BOY HAS IT BEEN A JOURNEY!! THANK YOU GUYS FOR EVERYTHING!! I'm thankful for every comment, every piece of advice, and everyone of you who have followed me on a journey.

SPAN HER COMMENTS AND ASK HER IF I CAN FILM THE NEXT TIME I GET INJECTIONS 😂) **no rude comments about my edges please. I'm aware of the mistakes I've made, which is why I'm documenting the steps I am taking to regrow them.**
I was thinking the opposite. Yes, you’ve done an amazing job on your own. Seeking professional help has really shown great improvement. You were on the right track with micro needling at home but I’d see what the professionals can teach you. Either way I’m a new subscriber here to see the results and trying this oil mixture for my own broken and thinning hair.
Excellent results Tami. I’ve been following your progress from the beginning and admired you for being vulnerable and honest about your hair challenges. Thank you for sharing. With your determination and being consistent I think doing the micro needling yourself would give you the same results as having it done professionally. All the best. 👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏾
your progress is amazing! I think you should give the shots some time after, you might regain most of it with the shots. but if you don't, I think it's worth it doing it professionally because they would have better needles and you can go much smaller to have the most impact.
🥹 I agree with you. Of all the products I’ve used, including the prescribed oil, the shots made the best difference. Hopefully microneedling won’t be needed 🤞
Amazing progress... I'm on a transition right now. It's been 1.7 months without relaxing my hair. I'm waiting the 2 years mark to cut all of my relaxed lenght. Videos like yours are so inspiring ! You are the proof tha dedication, consistency and patience work. Thank you! Love your videos ❤
And comments like these keep me going 🥹 I transitioned for 2 months and gave up so I definitely commend you on your journey lol appreciate your comment
@@tamithecreator Thank you so much girl! I feel like every black girl on this journey should have a TH-cam channel. Just to show that once you took the decision it's starting to become possible. At the beginning of this journey I was crazy searching videos on TH-cam to reassure me that my hair would grow 😆 See others one or two years later is reassuring and inspiring. I leave you alone, I don't want to be annoying 😆 Keep going !💪🏾
Love the new intro. Also love that you documented this journey...for those who think BW cant grow hair...this is what happens when the hair is loved and cared for. Look forward to future updates💚
I've been with you since you shaved your hair off and I'M BEYOND PROUD OF YOU AND YOUR CONSISTENCY!!! ❤❤❤ Continue to do what works for your hair and as for the microneedling, I would get the dermatologist opinion on it and gor from there 😊
I adore your videos. You describe each step so well and show actual progress with timeline and results. I appreciate that you don't post too often but when you do it's worth the wait. Your edges are growing back super well, I'd say continue professionally since you've done it at home already and seen the results, sometimes paying is a great alternative and you'll be able to compare the results, I'm sure you'll be happy you did because you seem committed to your goal and God has placed you into the right professional hands already with your edges. Can't wait to see your head full of hair soon ❤thanks for sharing
Omg the most heartwarming comment ever, thank you for your kind words! I see that you’re on a journey yourself and I subbed so I’ll be supporting you 💕💕
Did you have smooth areas in the edges area like it felt like no hair follicles I’m asking cause that’s what it looked like and what’s the name of the prescription oil u used on the edges
Professional micro needling is not the same as at home. The needles are longer for professional and they can reach a depth that will actually be effective, especially if you are doing PRP with it which also can’t be done by yourself.
SUCH an under rated channel. As I said last video you are so genuine and trust worthy. For all of us who are suffering with hair loss this is extremely inspiring and attainable because your forth coming with the results. Your edges improved drastically!! Thankyou 1thousand times. Oh and I made the doogoo mix and used it for the first time. cant wait to see my results And id say get it done professionally, film it (let them know you've been filming your journey) then after the 1st session you watch what they did & replicate it at home lol 🤷🏽♀
First of all, thank you for your comment. Comments like this keep me going 💕 Good luck on your doogro journey! As far as microneedling is concerned, you hit the nail on the head. I’ll see how the first round goes and go on from there. Thank you for your comment! Keep me updated
Let them do it professionally. They've helped you this much. I think you should. I'm so excited for you!! Youre doing amazing ❤👏🙌 and it shows it your results
Am so so so happy for u. .the other side of your edges has improved. I think because of the shots. Keep growing. Ur teaching us too how to take care of our hair.
I’ve followed your whole journey and your hair is looking AMAZING! So glad the progress is coming together super well + maybe don’t get professional microneedling to save on expenses 👍🏽
Just stick with your regular routine, get the injections and add a scalp massager to massage your scalp everyday. Massaging your scalp to stimulate blood circulation is very good to help grow back your edges. No need to do microneedling at this time.
I’m on my hair journey your hair is inspiring… please allow them to do it you’ve come so far as far as u can go on ur own it’s a great idea to let them step in to help ur growth for ur edges the injections are doing well keep this momentum with the professional micro needling is my opinion. Thanks for these videos your hair is truly a success. ❤
You have to do what you need too. I started a hair health and growth journey April, 2020. I have made great growth and the health of my hair is great. I pre poo with conditioner and oil because my hair is dry and tangles. I section and detangle. Find what works for you. I use the Doo Grow Mix. Have for 3 years. It has helped with itching. And my hair loves it. What worked when you were young will still work.
I have been using the oil that my dermatologist prescribed me for almost 3 months now. I see a major change, but im thinking about getting injections at my follow up appt. I think you should get microneedling done by your dermatologist then if you feel comfortable do it yourself. ❤
Hey Monica! I love that we're on the same journey 💕 You should definitely get the injection, I thought the oil was doing well on its own but the injections gave me more results in 2 weeks than the oil gave me in 2 months. My injections were called Kenalog look into the side effects before you choose to do them. Good luck! update me
@@monicachika66 it depends on how bad your damage is. I had 3 areas of concern. The minor spot only needed one injection, the moderate side needed 2, my right side is what’s killing me. At first she said 3 rounds but I just got round two done and I’m skeptical. The appts are spread 4-6 weeks apart
You look AMAZINGG❤ I made the doo gro mixture february and I def see improvements in my hair. I’ve been wearing braids. I appreciate your updates and I’m glad your edges are transforming to their true form. My personal opinion is to get the micro needling professionally done. I think it’ll help worth it but of course ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT!! 🙏🏾🤝🏾
New subscriber here!! It’s like God placed your videos in my view!! I am transitioning after getting a perm almost a year ago and I am going through some of the same things you went through in the last 2 years of your hair journey!! My edges are bad and I just cut my hair and I’m just doing cornrows and wigs but I needed some direction! I LOVE your videos!! Your transparency! Everything!! You made me really excited and hopeful for my own journey! So thank you and please never stop doing videos!! ❤️
yessssssss!! as embarrassing as these videos are, comments like this keep me going. God bless you on this journey and I'm happy you're starting this!! Keep me updated Marcia 🥰
Wow I was wondering when you was going to come back and do another video wow your hair grows so much I have a problem with my edges I'm going to do the same hair grease for my edges so hopefully it will grow out😊❤❤❤
@tami your hair journey is impressive and encouraging..one question, the Doo Gro hair vatilizer, this is a conditioner? Just for clarity because I see you don't wash your hair after using the mixture..
I grabbed my box of VHF & read the instructions & it says to apply to hair and scalp & style as desired. (The instructions are in French so I read it to the best of my abilities) but it doesn’t say to wash out. Are you looking at the tube VHF? I know they have other products.
Your edges and hair are doing great! I would go the professional route with the micro needle if you can afford it. I think you would get quicker and better results. What are the drops that you were prescribed in the dark bottle?
Thank you! I’m going to try to get it professionally done & if it hurts then I’m out 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️ lol I’ll get the proper name of the prescribed drops when I go to the appt this week & get back to you
Okkay i gotta keep going I been using this product for 2 months and the progress is slowww but its Working for sure.. I just expected my hair to be floor length by month 1 hahahahaa .. I will keep going #Month3
Keeeeeeep going!!!! I promise you by month two I was doing research on a hair transplant, 😂 i thought it wasn’t working. Consistency is key AND massage it in or don’t even bother applying. You got this 💪
Just stumbled on your channel. You’ve done an excellent job 👏👏 I’m sitting on the fence a bit, but whatever you decide, I wish you continued success - I’m sure you’re gonna reach tail bone length 😘
You did talk you good yourself. Now you should leave it to the professionals. I been watching your journey and I feel like you reached your plateau. Professional help will help you accomplish your goals. ❤❤
Thank you! And I usually have my hair in cornrows so while in the shower I focus shampoo and conditioner around my hairline. If my braids are fresh I shower with my shower cap pushed back behind my hairline so they don’t get wet. If my braids are old then I don’t mind if a little shampoo or conditioner get on them, I just make sure I fully dry my hair before bed
i hardly ever see anyone who’s edges grow low on their forehead like mine 😭 lol ppl always crack jokes on me but i love it , i hope you love it too lol . wishing you the best of luck on your journey to growing them back fully . your progress is already truly amazing
You’re the first to ever mention low edges omg! It’s a blessing and a curse lol at this point my edges are touching my brows. & thank you for your kind words beautiful 💕💕
Hi Tami. Have you tried red light therapy for your hair? I have one I purchased by irestore, reconditioned,on eba for about 200 bucks. Also another thing that helped me tremendously was collagen peptide powder. Vital proteins is the most popular but since I do take it faithfully I found bulk suppliers. I take bovine & marine. Vitamin D +K2, iodine, vitamin C & cod liver oil is what I also take as well. You’ll see vitamin C is a building block for collagen. Most of us are low in vitamin D + K2, which is essential for hair growth. Cod liver is an omega 3 which most of us don’t get enough of, also essential for the most healthy hair. Lastly red meat is iron rich. Administrating women tend to be low in iron so eat your red meat. I suggest trying some of these internal things, plus the red light therapy, to see if it helps your edges. When I did this my hair did a 180! Best to you.
Hey! Red light therapy you say? I'm intrigued. I've seen videos on red light therapy for skin but never for hair.. You've sparked my interest, I'm definitely going to look into this. (also internally, I'm a mess, I eat Mc Donalds for dinner 😩 but I'm. working on it lol) Thank you 💕
Great video. I have never loved my hair. 3 years ago a stylist ripped out my crochet braids. My relaxed hair was weak before that but still pretty and shoulder length. All I could do was cut it all off. Now I am old, Ai, for the FIRST time ever, I love the natural hair God gave me. No more harsh chemicals or heat treatment. Water, sealers ( cream and oil), and gel are my best friends. My type 4 hair is amazing - I now can see how chemicals and heat weakened my hair.
Definitely micro needle yourself at home for free . I’ve been using it with minoxidil and I’ve seen amazing results on my hairline, I just use alcohol to clean it after.
I went to my second appointment today, here are a few answers to some common questions you guys may have.
1. The injections: The name of the injections are Kenalog, its a steroid
2. The Oil: Unfortunately, she was not able to give a proper name to the oil/droplets. The oil is compound meaning the lab mixes a few things together to make it. I'll try to find out the components of the mix and show the label in my next update.
3. The dermatoligist office I go to is Parkland Dermatology in Parkland Florida. (Parkland is in south Florida)
Let me know if you have any other questions, I'll answer them in my update.
I wish we had a good dermatologist here in Gainesville FL
How much were the shots
@@aw3257 the visit was $75 & the shots were included, that’s without any insurance
I do have a question, is there any side effects to the injections?
@@gemmallischannel2831 that’s a good question
I'm actually shedding tears because there is hope for my hairline. You did that🙌🏾
I promise you theres hope 🥹
Your progress is so great !! You did a great job doing a majority at home. Your hair is growing beautifully, keep it up 👍🏽

Congrats on your progress this is very inspiring!!
Hey Tami well done, it's all about consistency.. Just to make you aware I microneedle myself at home
I'm early YAY. I'm 14 and I love your videos so much. Congrats☺☺
Amazing. Do the micro needling professionally to maximize results.
Girl ....try bask and lather oil on your edges...trust me you'll love the results
I’m not opposed to trying them. I tried another product from them and didn’t care for it but I’ll check out the oil
Wow!!! I've watched more than a few of your videos and Yasss!!!! Your edges have gotten significantly fuller and look healthy too! If you can, what's the name of the oil your dermatologist prescribed? Also to achieve your results, did you have to use the oil before and after receiving those injections?

What are the shots?
Kenalog

Do I have to add milk?
?

This just gave me hope. I recently lost my edges due to a braider giving me knotless with parts that were too small for the weight of the braid 💔

Professional micro needling is not the same as at home. The needles are longer for professional and they can reach a depth that will actually be effective, especially if you are doing PRP with it which also can’t be done by yourself.
Yep get those steps the dermatologist does and do it on your own
Love this! I definitely see the big difference. I think you should try it professionally so, we know if it’s worth the cost.
Oh my gosh so happy I clicked on this. Great! Job! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
SUCH an under rated channel. As I said last video you are so genuine and trust worthy. For all of us who are suffering with hair loss this is extremely inspiring and attainable because your forth coming with the results. Your edges improved drastically!! Thankyou 1thousand times. Oh and I made the doogoo mix and used it for the first time. cant wait to see my results
And id say get it done professionally, film it (let them know you've been filming your journey) then after the 1st session you watch what they did & replicate it at home lol 🤷🏽♀
First of all, thank you for your comment. Comments like this keep me going 💕
Good luck on your doogro journey!
As far as microneedling is concerned, you hit the nail on the head. I’ll see how the first round goes and go on from there.
Thank you for your comment! Keep me updated
I made the exact concoction for my hair growth and this shit made my hair fall out. I threw it in the trash. DIDN’T WORK FOR ME UNFORTUNATELY😩
Wig on standby 😂
Let them do it professionally. They've helped you this much. I think you should. I'm so excited for you!! Youre doing amazing ❤👏🙌 and it shows it your results
Am so so so happy for u. .the other side of your edges has improved. I think because of the shots. Keep growing. Ur teaching us too how to take care of our hair.
I’ve followed your whole journey and your hair is looking AMAZING! So glad the progress is coming together super well + maybe don’t get professional microneedling to save on expenses 👍🏽
Just stick with your regular routine, get the injections and add a scalp massager to massage your scalp everyday. Massaging your scalp to stimulate blood circulation is very good to help grow back your edges. No need to do microneedling at this time.
I’m on my hair journey your hair is inspiring… please allow them to do it you’ve come so far as far as u can go on ur own it’s a great idea to let them step in to help ur growth for ur edges the injections are doing well keep this momentum with the professional micro needling is my opinion. Thanks for these videos your hair is truly a success. ❤
Those edges grew back. Really proud of you ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🥹🥹
I would definitely go to the dermatologist for microneedling so its done correctly. Great growth update!
You have to do what you need too. I started a hair health and growth journey April, 2020. I have made great growth and the health of my hair is great. I pre poo with conditioner and oil because my hair is dry and tangles. I section and detangle. Find what works for you. I use the Doo Grow Mix. Have for 3 years. It has helped with itching. And my hair loves it. What worked when you were young will still work.
I have been using the oil that my dermatologist prescribed me for almost 3 months now. I see a major change, but im thinking about getting injections at my follow up appt. I think you should get microneedling done by your dermatologist then if you feel comfortable do it yourself. ❤
Hey Monica! I love that we're on the same journey 💕 You should definitely get the injection, I thought the oil was doing well on its own but the injections gave me more results in 2 weeks than the oil gave me in 2 months. My injections were called Kenalog look into the side effects before you choose to do them. Good luck! update me
@@tamithecreator I sure will keep you updated. How often do you have to get the injection?
@@monicachika66 it depends on how bad your damage is. I had 3 areas of concern. The minor spot only needed one injection, the moderate side needed 2, my right side is what’s killing me. At first she said 3 rounds but I just got round two done and I’m skeptical. The appts are spread 4-6 weeks apart
You look AMAZINGG❤ I made the doo gro mixture february and I def see improvements in my hair. I’ve been wearing braids. I appreciate your updates and I’m glad your edges are transforming to their true form. My personal opinion is to get the micro needling professionally done. I think it’ll help worth it but of course ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT!! 🙏🏾🤝🏾
New subscriber here!! It’s like God placed your videos in my view!! I am transitioning after getting a perm almost a year ago and I am going through some of the same things you went through in the last 2 years of your hair journey!! My edges are bad and I just cut my hair and I’m just doing cornrows and wigs but I needed some direction! I LOVE your videos!! Your transparency! Everything!! You made me really excited and hopeful for my own journey! So thank you and please never stop doing videos!! ❤️
yessssssss!! as embarrassing as these videos are, comments like this keep me going. God bless you on this journey and I'm happy you're starting this!! Keep me updated Marcia 🥰
@@tamithecreator will do!!! Thank you so much ❤️!!
Wow I was wondering when you was going to come back and do another video wow your hair grows so much I have a problem with my edges I'm going to do the same hair grease for my edges so hopefully it will grow out😊❤❤❤
I hope it does! Keep me updated 💕
I will
You have to have a wig cap...if you use wigs and sleep with a silk bonnet
Don’t y’all edges just grow back ? Like regularly over time?
Not if the follicles are damaged
Do it at home
I did this in my youth a lot, lol. Sometimes even at lunch break. Came back to work with hair cuts.
What is the name of the oil the dermatologist recommended?
@tami your hair journey is impressive and encouraging..one question, the Doo Gro hair vatilizer, this is a conditioner? Just for clarity because I see you don't wash your hair after using the mixture..
I grabbed my box of VHF & read the instructions & it says to apply to hair and scalp & style as desired. (The instructions are in French so I read it to the best of my abilities) but it doesn’t say to wash out. Are you looking at the tube VHF? I know they have other products.
Your edges and hair are doing great! I would go the professional route with the micro needle if you can afford it. I think you would get quicker and better results. What are the drops that you were prescribed in the dark bottle?
Thank you! I’m going to try to get it professionally done & if it hurts then I’m out 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️ lol I’ll get the proper name of the prescribed drops when I go to the appt this week & get back to you
re: The injections. Are the results permanent once you stop? Or do you need to have rounds of them every few months forever to maintain?
The results are permanent
Great results thanks for sharing 🫶🏽
Okkay i gotta keep going
I been using this product for 2 months and the progress is slowww but its Working for sure.. I just expected my hair to be floor length by month 1 hahahahaa .. I will keep going #Month3
Keeeeeeep going!!!! I promise you by month two I was doing research on a hair transplant, 😂 i thought it wasn’t working. Consistency is key AND massage it in or don’t even bother applying. You got this 💪
Just stumbled on your channel. You’ve done an excellent job 👏👏 I’m sitting on the fence a bit, but whatever you decide, I wish you continued success - I’m sure you’re gonna reach tail bone length 😘
yess! tail bone length! I'm speaking it into existence! 💕 and thank you for your kind words.
At least 1 or 2 treatments then see about continuing at home.
You did talk you good yourself. Now you should leave it to the professionals. I been watching your journey and I feel like you reached your plateau. Professional help will help you accomplish your goals. ❤❤
You said that so elegantly, lol I appreciate it. I did my part let the professionals handle the rest 😂
Tami how much is the oil and do you have a link?
Girl, your hair looks good!
Love the video but how do you wash your edges without washing your whole head ❤️
Thank you! And I usually have my hair in cornrows so while in the shower I focus shampoo and conditioner around my hairline. If my braids are fresh I shower with my shower cap pushed back behind my hairline so they don’t get wet. If my braids are old then I don’t mind if a little shampoo or conditioner get on them, I just make sure I fully dry my hair before bed
i hardly ever see anyone who’s edges grow low on their forehead like mine 😭 lol ppl always crack jokes on me but i love it , i hope you love it too lol . wishing you the best of luck on your journey to growing them back fully . your progress is already truly amazing
You’re the first to ever mention low edges omg! It’s a blessing and a curse lol at this point my edges are touching my brows. & thank you for your kind words beautiful 💕💕
Hi Tami. Have you tried red light therapy for your hair? I have one I purchased by irestore, reconditioned,on eba for about 200 bucks. Also another thing that helped me tremendously was collagen peptide powder. Vital proteins is the most popular but since I do take it faithfully I found bulk suppliers. I take bovine & marine. Vitamin D +K2, iodine, vitamin C & cod liver oil is what I also take as well. You’ll see vitamin C is a building block for collagen. Most of us are low in vitamin D + K2, which is essential for hair growth. Cod liver is an omega 3 which most of us don’t get enough of, also essential for the most healthy hair. Lastly red meat is iron rich. Administrating women tend to be low in iron so eat your red meat. I suggest trying some of these internal things, plus the red light therapy, to see if it helps your edges. When I did this my hair did a 180! Best to you.
Hey! Red light therapy you say? I'm intrigued. I've seen videos on red light therapy for skin but never for hair.. You've sparked my interest, I'm definitely going to look into this. (also internally, I'm a mess, I eat Mc Donalds for dinner 😩 but I'm. working on it lol) Thank you 💕
You should derma stamp your edges once a week there a lot of videos that will teach you on TH-cam
Thanks, I get it done professionally
I think you should get one more professional treatment and ask the doctor if this would be something you can do at home!
This is exactly the plan!! Thank you! 💕
What did the dermatology advice for you to use? And what are the injection
The injections are Kenalog and I don’t understand the first question
Congratulations Tami!
It’s inspiring to see your growth!
Awesome dedication and consistency!
awww thank you Syd 💕
Excellent results Sis. Thank you for sharing.
If consistency was a person
Wow I can see the difference in the edges with the injections Ima ask my derm about it
Definitely worth it!
Ik I'm off topic but your side profile is gorgeous ❤️
awww thank you lol first i've heard this lol
Good morinin please can i use de rest of de product without doogro i dont have some
Doo gro is kinda the main ingredient in this so it might be tough
Great video. I have never loved my hair. 3 years ago a stylist ripped out my crochet braids. My relaxed hair was weak before that but still pretty and shoulder length. All I could do was cut it all off. Now I am old, Ai, for the FIRST time ever, I love the natural hair God gave me. No more harsh chemicals or heat treatment. Water, sealers ( cream and oil), and gel are my best friends. My type 4 hair is amazing - I now can see how chemicals and heat weakened my hair.
Get more injections
Definitely micro needle yourself at home for free . I’ve been using it with minoxidil and I’ve seen amazing results on my hairline, I just use alcohol to clean it after.
ooo i'm happy you're seeing results 💪🏽 sidenote: your beats are fire
@@tamithecreator thank you!
Sometimes it's better to start all over again ❤ your haor look healthy 😍 love it
