- Hi guys,
Here is a quick traction alopecia update and how I have grown out my bald spots/traction alopecia using 5 simple steps that are essential for maintaining natural healthy hair!
5 Power Tips to Grow Natural Hair ⤵️
1⃣️ Shampoo
It seems obvious, but how often do you have a wash day?
I ensure that I wash my hair with sulfate/paraben free shampoo every single week.
There will be the odd occasion when this stretches to two weeks, but my hair sure nuff tells me it’s long overdue for a wash.
I have also found using a shampoo massage brush has made a massive difference. The bristles stimulate the cells within the scalp, increasing blood flow, which promotes hair growth and prevents hair loss.
2⃣️ Deep Conditioning 🙌🏾
The holy grail of natural hair care. I deep condition on every wash day, no exceptions with the Aphrodite deep conditioning cap that has just been working wonders for my hair.
If you can't get your hands on a steamer or conditioning cap, turning your hot nob on full blast and letting the bathroom steam up while you’re in there for about 20mins will do the trick to get that much needed moisture in your hair. It also helps to raise the cuticle of the hair, which means that products/ingredients are more easily absorbed into the core.
3⃣️ Moisturise
Need I say more, my kinky coily natural hair relies on moisture for so many reasons. It is key for maintaining natural healthy hair. To prevent breakage, promote retention, easier manageability and have softer hair. It most def is a must to say the least!!!
4⃣️ Trimming
I have to admit it’s not something I do often, and it would be easy to avoid especially when you want your hair to growth (why cut
it right) The benefits of trimming include fuller, healthier ends, less breakage, and length retention. Once the hair starts growing back, it’s still important to have a regular trim for these benefits.
5⃣️ LEAVE IT ALONE
Need I say more, the great thing about our hair is versatility, so we can do so many things with it, and experiment with different styles.That being said this comes with a whole heap of pros and cons especially with bald spots.
I’ve avoided any kind of tension or pulling on the hair and just let it be.
Sometimes your hair needs to have a breather to allow it to grow, protective styles like braids wigs and weaves put a lot of stress on the hair over a prolonged period of time so make sure that you take a break from time to time.
I prefer having my hair out through all seasons and I seldom protective style, I’m now just used to me and my kinky coily curls.

Thank you. as the beginning was long winded I almost left until I saw the summary
I had a huge bald spot because of a weave, scalp massages with a mixture of olive oil and castor oil helped a lot. A year and some months later I have 5 inches of hair where that bald spot was. Great tips.

Jovial Juanita Thank u
Jovial Juanita thanks 🙏🏾 boo
Jovial Juanita thanks!
“The more you trim your hair, the more your hair grows” is not true. Trimming has 0 effect on hair growth. Trimming can, however, help you to retain length because it gets rid of unhealthy ends that would have contributed to breakage.
thanks for elaborating on my point x
Amazing tips. Filling in bald spots takes work and dedication. Beautiful hair. Regrowth requires and active participation not passive. Great video.
thank you, I really appreciate it. Some wont understand and need things to happen instantly when that's never the case x
What helped to me to grow my bald spot Back was box braids because that area was just left alone for 3 months and it started growing back in two weeks
Thanks a lot for sharing❣️am struggling a lot with my hair lost for years and I just away under wigs.For a month now I decided to see what the problem is.ladies like you help us a lot to gain hope.
Thanks so much for watching and sharing a bit of your story, wishing you all the best and I hope it all works out for you 🤗
At least it’s in the middle my bald spot is on my edges 😒 I’m sooo limited to styles it’s annoying I got it from wearing a puff too . It’s been since 2012 yea I doubt it’s coming back smh
oh no, I'm so sorry to read this Lauren, that's the worst when you get a bald spot that you can't cover. what have you tried to get your hair to grow?
Chuma Soko im using Jamaican mango and lime but I don’t think it’s the right one . I used to use the tropic isle which I was seeing results . I’m def not putting anymore braids in my hair , it’s not THAT bad it could be worse but it’s still there . Soon I’m going to go to the dermatologist to see what they can do
@@laurenlocd3180 Let me know how everything is going. I'm in the same boat as you 😞 only mines been since 2015 😞
Hey...i have those bald spots also. In the exact same spots. Dermotologist told me it was ccca alopecia that turned into scarring alopecia. She told ne that my haur would never grow back. Recently starting using an oil i get from a lady on you tube and my hair is growing back after 5 years of being bald!!! I also take biotin capsules 5,000 mg once a day and pumpkin seed oil capsule1,000 mg twice a day, scalp massages twice a week. And also trimming my hair and washing and deep conditioning weekly. Its really working. It takes about 3 weeks to see some hair fuzz but its working!!
Blackhairandskincare.com is the website i order the oil from. Give it a try...
I have a bald spot and recently I’ve been so incredibly insecure about it. I’m always getting looks idk if it’s bc of my bald spot but i feel so insecure. I’m pretty sure my bald spot came from stress, and hair pulling. I put my hair in a low TIGHT ponytail every day for years, which caused hair loss. Hopefully once I try this, and it works
hey hun, I'm so sorry to hear it's not the best feeling when you get a bald spot so completely understand, I hope this doesn't work and if not be sure to seek professional help too 💞
I'm in the same situation has anything worked for you
@ximena collazo how is your hair now? Has anything worked for you?
Did it worked?
You are a beautiful Queen 👸🏾 thanks for the advice sista! Love your whole look & haircut, it really suits you !
+Sabrina Adam thanks so much for your lovely message and for watching 👊🏾
I recently discovered a small bald patch near my edges . My edges are quite fragile and during this quarantine, I was also studying for my finals . So I think that contributed and I would wear my hair in cornrows but change it every week, My hair is very long. But I think maybe it was the fact that I kept changing my cornrows . I usually wear my hair in braids but , I’m just going to oil the patch everyday and wear my hair in loose single plaits for now (no extension). Thank you for the advice
thanks so much for sharing, all the best x
Very informative!! thanks for the tips❤
My hair is growing really good. I wash my hair once a month or so, but thats what works for me..😀
awesome hun, as long as you know what your hair needs, that's all that matters 😊
Same here and my hair is really doing good.....
Tnx for sharing great tips. I think we all may need deep conditioning once in a while, especially those with dry hair.
Wow! That's crazy I would of freaked out if I had bold spots. Thank you for sharing as I'm sure there's a lot of women freaking out. It's so weird that we take our hair for granted and the minute there's s problem we pay attention. Moral of the story - appreciate and love your hair even if it's not perfect but not as it's healthy 👌🏽
Trish Chanda you do freak out at first! Trust me I was vomiting, stopped eating and sleeping. I became a wreck! But eventually you have to deal with it
Omg I have the same bald spot in my hair middle

I was recently diagnosed by my dr with traction alopecia it was recommended by my dr to try rogaine for 1 year I’m glad I ran across your video I’m going to try your tips because I hear you have to use rogaine for the rest of your life
I hope the video can me of some help for you and wishing you a swift recovery with your hair!

Gd video Chums to help others who may need useful tips for their bald spots...... I have 13 yrs of locs an my hair was breakin like crazy for a few yrs I tried lot of things but nothing was really working then I discovered that ANY GD natural oil for hair growth WILL WORK WELL if U massage yr scalp really well, patting the scalp and low manipulation These 3 techniques encourage and wake up the follicles giving it the best chance to grow strong and healthy That,s why JBCO works for a lot of ppl it,s got natural ingredients an U have to massage it into the scalp
Really happy that yr hair is thriving nw
................
thank you so much for watching and sharing your very useful tip Johannah essential oils do make all the difference, glad your locs are back to health too. 🤗
I am going to get the steam cap, my hair came out the same way but my hair is so thick only I know, I have been putting glycerin in those spots and massaging it and putting my head upside down so blood can go to my head. U give me hope. Thanks
thanks for watching hun, I hope the video has been useful for you and I trust you hair will grow back! 💞
This video gave me back my life 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I hope it was helpful in some way 😘
Keep sharing more fab tips! And your fro is beautiful love the curls💛👑
bruh this really pissing me off i’ve tried castor oil, coconut oil, tea tree oil, caffeine, biotin shampoos, keratin shampoos and I still have a bald spot on my crown and my edges are fucked
Have you tried seeing a dermatologist and trichologist?
@@meriani777 no
@@bellathedog-fu8ny Ok your frustration is understandable. Do you know what your hair and scalp like? That's always a helpful place to start. Me personally I know my hair really likes steam, glycerin, and niacinamide( just found out about that one).☺
@@meriani777 idk I rubbed ice on it earlier the generic tasteful shit probably works but oil just warms it up and makes my hair uncomfortable
Thanks for sharing. I definitely need to start having regular deep conditioning! Would be nice to get these luscious locks growing a bit more.
Follow NappyFu TV, she had some pretty awesome tips. I've started deep conditioning my hair regularly and it absolutely does help.
Thanks for the tip. Will check out.
I’ve had these bald spots for years I think it’s too late
Don't give up.☺ Check out Debbie Williams channel and try the rice water along or rice water with onion juice. She has a coffee treatment for hair too. Also, she talks about having a healthy diet. Greenbeauty is another you tuber that has a rice water treatment with onion, garlic, and cayenne pepper.
No it’s not girl I started deep conditioning my bald spots and I’m seeing results
Thanks for these tips girl!! I've been trying to deep condition my hair every wash day too because it's soo dry & coarse😩... think I need to take a better look at the ingredients in my shampoo because I'm just using whatever is in the house🙈 any brands that you'd recommend?💕
hey hun, thanks for watching. I'd say look out for shampoos with sulphates or paraben, these ingredients tend to dry out the hair, which makes it more prone to breakage. find more natural moisturising based products and you'll be on the right track!!! some of my favs are creme of nature, taliah waajid and grohealthy 🤗
Miss Chuma Thanks for the recommendations hun, will have to give them a go because this coarse hair life isn't for me😂
YourGirlSudanny Girl get to the point you talk to much.
Gloria Statewright Huh?
YourGirlSudanny I don't think Gloria meant you I think she meant ms Chuma lol
i have two bald spots at the back of my hair and 1 on my crown 😭 idk what to do i’ve never experienced this
Samee
See a dermatologist, once you figure out what is going on you can figure out how to fix it
Did anything worked for you?
We are missing sleep and minerals.
And water and exercise
Does sleeping make your hair fall out
Getting less sleep I mean*
@@averythebutterfly yes and sleeping without covering your hair as well
Hi there, thanks for information. What’s the name of the conditioner cap?thanks
thanks for watching, it's the aphrodite conditioning cap x
@@ChumaSoko thanks
Okay. So the hair on my parental ridge has never grown in length compared to the sides and top. I have done so many hair styles whilst using relaxer and even even When I went natural 6 years ago but it always stays the same length. If it grows, it breaks off. It never bothers me much because the length there was still ok to give me a normal head shape. December last year I cut my hair, bleached and got a bomb red wine colour. No changes in that area, hair was still same length there. To also mention, I had birth control pills for 4 months to control a heavy flow I had (gyno's recommendation).
But as time went on I started noticing a thining and my hair line going in and it tingles when I touch both spots. I have ignored it for a while as I didn't want to start being stressed again.(I have anxiety issues). I have finally accepted that I'm balding for probably various reasons and will see my doctor in 2 weeks to get an analysis.
It took a second cut to actually see how bad it's getting. I literally have a shape V line from top.
I hope my hair grows back even if it takes a year.
oh my goodness, I'm so sorry to hear about whats happening with your hair, you'll most def want to follow up with your doctor cause it has been affecting you for a long while, I hope this improves for you and that you're able to get the help you need to grow your hair. please do keep in touch, it'll be nice to know your progress.
i realized i have a bald spot & idk what to do
can you think of what caused the bald spot? also see a professional if you've had it for a long while and your hair still isn't growing.
Love, love your accent 😍
thanks Mel 😃🤗
My daughter is natural and yesterday her hair was in a puff ball at the back of her head. She brushed the whole right back side off, I was horrified! Never seen it happen before, it has been 2 months since I've braided the back and I never use weave on her.. I just don't understand!!😭😭😭😤😤 I worked so hard on my baby's hair and this is a major setback
oh my goodness, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter's hair. I hope this was helpful for you and I'm sure it'll grow back in no time.
Read the description. 5 point already stated. 📖😘
I have this right now. This is scary 😫
oh no soo sorry hun, do you know if it is stress related or from a hairstyle?
Wy cant i find smt that works for me? I an sick and i am completly bald so this things dont work 😢
Have you tried collagen powder?
I got bald spots in my hair after i had my baby and went on birth control on the depo shot and it made my hair fall out badly after i got off the shot
ohhh nooooo so sorry to hear hun, I hope you are recovering well, I know it'll be a challenge but I'm sure your hair will bounce back.
You are so beautiful :) thank you for this video !
thanks for watching hun! 💖
Can you give us a review of The H&B shampoo and intensive treatment that you used a few months ago? You didnt mention it in this video and I would like to know how it added to your hairs progress..or maybe it didnt?? I'd be really interested to know...
hey Thai, thanks for watching, I'll be sure to give a review of the H&B shampoo and intensive treatment, sorry I completely missed it in this video. I think it definitely helped to the progress of my hair. the treatment didn't last long but still use the shampoo so I'd recommend getting just the shampoo, but I'll do a quick video for your when I get back 😊
Thank you. Your information was helpful.
thanks for watching I'm glad it was helpful x
Thank you for sharing!!!💜💜💜
no worries hun, I hope this will be helpful 😊
why these people talk so much and in the end they don't tell you a single thing ,I am still waiting on her to tell me what she is using then the video runs out .
Millie, if listening is an issue I have also highlighted what I've been doing in the description box if you fancy a read instead. Thanks for watching! 😘
i think the title is a bit misleading, you don't tell us how you grew your bald spots out but how you are maintaining that growth....
would you recommend box braids to help grow back the bald spots?
I wouldn't simply because of the tension created from braids. I do know box braids are bigger and so less stress on the hair but in the first instance I would just let the hair breathe for a bit and allow for daily stimulation on the bald spots. I hope that helps.
Great advice. Is Kerasoft products safe to use?
Hi Victoria, thanks for watching, I haven't come across the Kerasoft products so can't comment, but I'd suggest reading up on some reviews online and most importantly check the ingredients to see what goes in the products, that's always an indicator of whether it'll be safe to use for your hair. 😊
I had alopecia for almost 12 years,
My age is 18 ,
I tried all natural and artificial things,
But my hair doesnot grow,
What shall i do
in this case I recommend going to see a trichologist to understand what condition you have x
Good tips! But, did the products that you used in the first video, for your alopecia, worked for the 30days? Or did you change products during the process and/or after the 30days? Did you see progress after 30days or more?
Hi Kristena, thanks for watching. I used the shampoo for more than 30 days however the conditioner/mask didn't last too long as you can imagine and I didn't buy a new tub. I found that the products were great to help with my alopecia at the time and have used the shampoo every so often on a wash day. I hope that helps 😊
Thank you for sharing. I too suffer with androgentic alopecia.
thanks for watching and I hope the tips help 😊
Thks, girl do you use wild growth oil for your hair sometimes or all the time it is really good for the hair though.
hey Belinda, I haven't heard of wild growth oil, just essential oils like peppermint and castor oil.
STRESS!!! that's all
sorry hun, hope this video helped some 🤗
Love the hair! 😊
thanks for watching Lucy 😊
Hi hun, can you confirm if you were medically diagnosed with end stage traction alopecia?
no I was not, this was caused by tension, how I was wearing a specific hair style.
Very useful thank you God Bless
I'm so glad, thanks for watching x
Great video 👍👌
thanks for watching!!!
I always shampoo my hair. & what is cowash???
its a essentially a washing your hair with a cleansing conditioner, so instead of shampoo some one can opt to use a cowash in between wash days.
Where can I purchase the Aphrodite deep conditioning cap?
Hey Namakau, it's available on amazon here: amzn.to/2BKnBjc
Thanks Chuma for your reply.
Hope this helps, thank you for your tips!
you're welcome and thanks for watching 💕
Great info. Just long.
thanks for watching and the feedback 👊🏾
Chuma Soko I watched half of it. You’re welcome!
coconessfox I agree, it's too long. Maybe my attention span is too short. I only watched about 5 minutes...😩😩😩.
St. Sade it’s ok. I understand we run on sometimes. Your progress is great. I’m having a patch issue so I was trying to hear some quick tips because I’m watching so many videos already.
coconessfox You said it, "quick tips"...😊
I have My bald spots in tye exact positions you have yours thank you so much for the advice hopefully it works
thanks for watching Joy, I hope this works for you too 💞
Are you in Liverpool or London?

Hi, great vid 🙌🏾. You talk about leaving your hair alone and not to comb it especially through the bold spot. But as a man growing an Afro who works in an office, I need to comb my hair 😂. Could you suggest a protective style or daily routine where I won’t have to comb my hair everyday please? Thank you.
Hey Daniel thanks for watching, I'm not very familiar with Men's protective styles however I recommend checking out @wolfganglisborg on instagram, he has amazing styles that I'm sure you would be able to consider, for example the high or low bun look and four braids down depending on your hair length. Let me know how you get on and I can find some other Men's pages for you to check out 🤗
My hair is in natural state and it breaks wat can I use because for now I use nothing
the breakage may be because of the lack of hydration and moisture in your hair, when you say you use nothing, no products at all?
@@ChumaSoko ok dear
I put water in my hair nothing works and my hair sheds and breaks so much
What kind shampoo you use for alopecia traction that's not harsh
I'd say find an organic natural shampoo that contain tea tree, peppermint or hemp oil, as a base, these are ingredients that aid hair growth along side the usual ingredients we see in natural hair products. Just ensure they have less chemicals that would potentially cause more harm.

thanks, all tips in the description too x
How long does it take for hair to start growing back?
it really depends, hair tends to grow a bit faster when protective styling, my hair took about 4 months to see growth cause I usually leave it out.
Chuma Soko hair doesn’t grow faster while protective styling. You may retain more length because you aren’t experiencing as much breakage but the rate of hair growth doesn’t change.
Thanks sis
thanks for watching, x
I need help because 2 weeks ago i realise i had bold spot on my head . I dnt know what to do
hey Mikassi, can you recall what style you had in your hair before you discovered the bald spot? it may be caused by pulling or possibly stress related.
Hey Chuma Soko i had braids i was holding it as poney
Hey chuma I just went natural a year ago and I was wondering how I can get more volume to my hair
Hey Chichi congratulations on going natural, I'd need to understand your hair routine and the products you've been using, what I can say is that deep conditioning has honestly changed my hair life, so if that isn't already part of your routine try it and see if it makes a difference. 💞
@@ChumaSoko thanks, I will definitely try it
im waiting for your best deep conditioners video😍💜💜
It'll be out soon 😄
First, stop talking so much get to the point, can't continue to watch talking to much about nothing 😵😵😵

Hi Carol, no I'm Zambian 🇿🇲😊
Can anyone please help me! My hair started falling out a few months ago so i decided to cut the back where it was falling out. Now it was fine and it wasn't falling out till bout a month ago and it's more towards the top. Anyway or items i can use to grow it back? It would help alot
Hey Aryanna, sorry to hear about your hair. I'd say take a look at the cause before finding a remedy in this case as you may find that it reoccurs, could it be stress related, a change in diet or routine? a number of things cause hair loss. To help with hair growth check out this video (th-cam.com/video/I3GEbompka0/w-d-xo.html) that helped me grow back my bald spots too, but I do recommend seeing a professional if it becomes serious. 💞
👏👏🤗🤗👏👏
thanks for watching 👊🏾
VERY INFORMATIVE.

Go straight to the point ...
read the description!

It’s not traction alopecia. It’s alopecia areata.
thanks for watching, in this context I am referring to traction alopecia (caused primarily by a pulling force being applied to the hair.) I didn't band my high puffs correctly and that's how I got the bald spots.
Alopecia areata is believed to be an autoimmune disease, which could be due to genetics or stress related. This isn't my case here. I hope this helps 😊
it my be CCCA that type of alopecia starts in the middle and spread out. it's very common in ppl of color that have curly/kinky hair texture
Why do you have to say so much just give the steps
