      MerrahNextDoor I am too. My only reservation is I don’t cornrow, 2 strand, 3 strand or flat twist. I her that those are some of the rings you need to do to your hair in order to manage the hair. I don’t know what to do. I stopped relaxing in 2015 but I still have relaxer on the ends, don’t want to big chop, but I do trim. I’m confused.

  • @SkyeID
    @SkyeID 8 ปีที่แล้ว +129

    Tips: Research what your hair porosity is, as well as hair type. Watch natural hair videos of You Tubers who have YOUR hair type, so you can get an idea of how your hair might react to the products and techniques they use. Might is the key word here. I saw a video of someone with 4C hair who had an allergic reaction to coconut oil! Not all hair textures can use all the same products. I hear of people with 4C hair watching videos and taking tips from people with 3C hair. Not the best idea! If you use the same products as a 3C person, and try to do the same techniques, then you probably won't get the same results as 3C people. You'll be struggling and struggling to make your hair do something that it doesn't do naturally. Get to know your hair, and embrace your texture. If you're 4C, 4D, 4E, don't expect your hair to look like Shizen Wong. Save yourself the heartache. Learn what works for you!

    Natural is like a Part-time job & OT! I love having my natural curls out but going through the styling process can become overbearing and the amount of money I spend on hair products (natural oils, generic brands and high end brands) is KRAAYYY! Shouldn't complain because I always love the results of soft, shiny & good smelling hair from the products and process. sometimes wish there was a faster & not so expensive.

  • @daniellequinteros7781
    @daniellequinteros7781 9 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Just a little note: For folks trying to go natural AND curly girl method, both of these (shampoo & conditioner) have silicone in them and while that helps with styling curls, it can build up in hair and create that vicious cycle of needing to use sulfate shampoo because the only way to get rid of silicone build up is with Sulfate/clarifying shampoos.... I've used both of these products and while they create great slip, it's sometimes a good idea to try sulfate, paraben, & silicone free products (ex: most Shea Moisture products are free of these things). Just a suggestion for fellow curly girls.

    • @Socialmediaoverload
      @Socialmediaoverload 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I'm transitioning and after watching tons and tons of videos I decided not to follow any methods because it becomes overwhelming. I want to be free with my hair so I'm trying it all, lol. No matter what I use on my hair if I do I good cleanse with apple cider vinegar or shampoo all the build up is gone. At first I was falling into the don't do this and you can't do that trap and it was becoming so overwhelming now I just do me and it's awesome. I have been transitioning for 16 months now and my hair looks and feel great. If I'm in the store and see I product I want to try I don't even look at the ingredients I buy it slap it on my head and if it's awesome I keep it and if it sucks I return it so I guess you would call this my method, lol. What I've learned from doing this is I would have missed out on some amazing products if I followed all these different natural hair methods.

    • @daniellequinteros7781
      @daniellequinteros7781 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Socialmediaoverload CG method is just works for me. I've always stuck to my natural curls (except heat straightening) and I've tried it all! I stick to a couple brands because that's the easiest for me because I know its mostly natural and don't have to worry about build up or chemicals drying my hair. Shea Moisture products are the bomb diggs and work for my hair type (2b-2c) and I absolutely recommend trying some, but by all means everyone should try a load of different things and do what makes your hair the healthiest and look the prettiest. I just wanted to put it out there that not all the products Alyssa mentions are CG. But holy moly her videos are AMAZING!. I have tried so many different things with my hair styling because of her so I'm not bashing or hating on her methods AT ALL btw.

    • @Socialmediaoverload
      @Socialmediaoverload 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've tried one shea moisture product that I hated it was the deep conditioner in the tanish looking packaging. My scalp itched so bad it felt like it was on fire and it broke my forehead out. I never break out so that sucked :-( I had to rewash my hair all over again which really sucked but my scalp was miserable and so was I. I don't have a holy grail shampoo yet but my holy grail conditioner is the Giovanni deep moisturizing conditioner and my holy grail deep conditioner is by cantu. I love trying new deep conditioners more than any other products but I always find myself going back to the cantu one. I still continue to venture out from it because I never know it might be a product I love better out there. I will continue to try new shampoos once I finish one I try another one so eventually I will find a shampoo I don't want to live without, lol. I'm one of those people who shops the whole hair care isle not just the natural products section.

      What's an AVC rinse?

    • @jenniferclark9113
      @jenniferclark9113 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      ReginaSparkleSibert it's an apple cider vinegar rinse. Shea moisture has one or you can use regular apple cider vinegar instead. It doesn't make your hair smell Lol. I thought that at first.

    Going natural is like to quit smoking its hard to do. I feel like an addict there's temptations everywhere to stay relaxed. I have my mind set my natural hair is ugly ppl made fun of it although my relaxed hair is ugly too it doesn't grow either.

    I have a tip for sulfate shampoos that strip your moisture. Get an oil of your choice and put it through your hair focusing on the roots. You could do this when your about to wash your hair or when you have your hair wet and ready to shampoo. I do both just to make sure. I did this with the Deep Cleanse shampoo by Tresemme and omg it felt clean and it felt like nothing was stripped. I hope this helps

    To anyone looking for oils: you can use something called babassu oil. It's pretty much exactly like coconut oil except its not as greasy. Order it online at amazon if it works for you.

    • @MsNiqueO
      @MsNiqueO 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I see what you're saying, but if you want it to grow out and STAY healthy, you should take those precautions. Many African American women don't have 'long' hair because they don't treat natural hair the way it should be treated. So yes, it can be a part time job.

    I’m currently in hair school and I’ve been trying to do research because I live in a all Caucasian household and my African American best friend lives with us. It’s really hard for us to help her with a hair routine that’s completely different than ours. I was looking though TH-cam videos and found this one very helpful. Aside from that, I work in an all natural hair salon. You should worry about what you put in your hair, it will effect your hair inside and out. If you want the healthiest natural hair, I do recommend not using coconut oil (as natural as it might seem) because it will only sit on top of the wet hair and not actually moisturize. It will actually just clog your hairs cuticle follicles. And not all sulfates are bad. You just need to pay attention to what’s in your products! Most companies will use cheap fake sulfates and proteins. Just imagine what’s in the product that makes it so cheap!! Sorry for getting so logistic, I did find this video very helpful and hope I can help my friend with her hair care with the stuff you recommend!

I tried so many styling products that weren't the best and my hair journey has basically been through a roller coaster because it got very healthy then recently , I have split ends all of a sudden . Maybe I need a small trim ? 😯 but your videos seriously help me out A LOT thank you love ! 💖
