We don't have to prove anything tbh, if you want long hair, work to get long hair and it you want short hair then get short hair. It's not society.. Its ourselves wanting to fit into society😪
Lol this society is backwards and pathetic anyway, just like most of the world. Long hair might be aesthetically pleasing but at the end of the day, can a female bring ACTUAL skills and worth to the table?? Think about it. You know your planet's societies and cultures are moderately primitive and unevolved when the extent of what women are prized for is largely "beauty," long hair, physical assets (i.e., butt, breasts, body, at the end of the day), and small trinkets moreso than technological achievement and galaxy spanning accomplishments.
People called me bald head when o wore wigs I took that wig off and they saw my hair is waist length now they say she think she all that people are cruel
I WEAR A BONNET ON MY HEAD THEY SAY YOU OUGHT TO GET YOUR HAIR DONE THEN I TAKE OFF MY BONNET YOU HAVE LONG HAIR I GUESSED THEY THOUGHT IT WAS SHORT I NEED HELP WITH MY HAIR BUT I DO NOT TRUST PEOPLE FIXING MY HAIR I PRAY SOME DAY I COULD GET HELP WITH MY HAIR SOMEONE NICE
Weaves are great for growing hair but the truth is these beliefs are there because most of the black women we do see do not have waist length hair and that's the truth....its not about we can grow it..its about do you have it
We as blk women, shouldn't need to prove our hair. My hair is pass the middle of my back and I have started over many times. I also don't like that people ask if I am "mixed" or have fake hair just because im blk.
@No Name I'm sorry, I didn't know that u knew me well enough to know my genetics. I don't have to prove my blackness to u, or to anyone else for that matter. I also never claimed to be 💯 West African.
The love is learning to not put a million products on it, constantly color it, and put it in styles we think are protective that is putting tension on the hair. That's love.
@@ellec2935 so true my father taught me all you said from the time I was 12. I used to get mad but he said you will thank me. At 43 my hair is long and strong. Emphasis on the "strong" because health is what matters.
1-Trim hair once a year (not every month) 2-Avoid heat (eg. flat iron once a year) 3-Lay off the hair coloring (eg. can use henna for natural hair, avoid for chemically treated hair) 4-Can use hair relaxer but take care of your hair, keep it moisturized and healthy 5-Use good hair oils (eg. olive oil, etc), you do not need to spend a fortune on it 6-Get a good hair conditioner (can leave only for 10-15 mins, does not have to be the whole day ), can make your own conditioner at home with natural products (eg. yogurt, honey, grapes, avocado's etc) 7-After deep conditioner use leave-in moisturizer, then use hair oil on top of that 8-Manipulate as little as possible (avoid tiny braids, frequent styling , etc), use head wraps and wigs instead if needed (keep your hair locked away) 9-Keep it simple, stick to one routine 10-Be patient 11-Eat a healthy diet
Thank youu also I suggest switching when you put you’re oil in if you’re having a hard time with it. For me I have to put olive oil in first then layer my products :))
Let's normalize us AA women having long hair. Like she said, is it really that serious for someone to lie about how long their hair is. The petulance is real.
@@__ieshiaa Black people is better. Just because there are Black people outside of the US and we’re not referred to as AA. It wasn’t a problem tho, idk why they made a big deal out of it cause I still got what you were saying
I let my hair do what it wants after I style it. I dont keep a comb in my purse or car. On days i dont leave home my bonnet stays on all day and I don't touch my hair.
I think it’s all about finding the right one. My hair is a couple inches shorter than hers and just as thick and I’ve gone to a salon for over 10 years.
With the trims I agree. If your ends aren't damaged, then they don't need to be cut. Cutting your ends help with length retention if your ends are damaged. Damaged ends break off, and if your keeps breaking then you will not see growth. So in that case trimming the hair off will stop if from.breaking. If your hair grows an inch then you cut an inch. You're not going to see growth. And if your ends are constantly damaged, instead of trimming, find out why your hair is damaged in the first place. Healthy hair needs less trims.
So many black girls hair is on the Salon floor. A white girl at work said to me: How come Black girls are always talking about they want long hair and "trim" every six weeks?
@@Mia-sp8jc Because that’s what their black hairstylist is telling them to keep them coming back or friends who have short hair who don’t know how to grow their hair long. It’s sad how some black stylist don’t want to work with natural hair too, always pushing using chemicals on our hair to keep up with other races hairstyles when it damages our hair.
@@ashleycbla Oh Ashley, Yes! Black women are being done really nasty when it comes to hair care and growth! My gosh so many hair "doers" are either clueless to the max or don't give a damn.
Planetvit0ria your so right and it's the blow dryer for me. Because when I'm not using the heat my hair thrives. Less breakage to so I'm going with out heat. I used protective products, dax grease, Ors mayonnaise conditioner yup it works for me. Back to the basics. My hair use to be shoulder length now it won't grow beyond my neck. It's what we eat to as well.
Low Iron also causes hair shedding and breakage. I’ve always been slightly anemic and once I started taking iron supplements my hair stopped shedding a lot and now my hair is longer than it’s ever been
That’s my issue.. my nails and hair are trash because of it. I have bad effects from iron supplements so I have to eat around it...which is fine until I get super busy and don’t ...then my nails start breaking and my hair starts shedding like a dog 🐕
That's my problem too, it would grow long & than damage again...back & forth, uuff. But, leaving it natural helps grow faster, plus alo vera & avocado hair mask helps once or twice a month.
Also WRAP THAT HAIR UP LADIES. Those pillowcases & covers break your hair off so much. It also mats and compacts your hair down. A bonnet and/or scarf will help keep the moisture in. Which will help your hair grow.
YES. I try to tell my friends this. Even if I’m dead tired I wrap my hair up. It can be a lazy wrap which is a satin scarf around my edges and a bonnet. Or I can do it with effort and pin curl or wrap my hair. But I neverrrrrr get in the bed with my hair loose EVER. Huge no no
@@courtneyjones-laweka1716 bby cast ur ends flaxseed gel and Shea butter so they literally can’t damage themselves it’s like wrapping ur ends in bubble wrap
@@astrose305 I'm so going to do this! Thank you for the info! Heat (no blow dryers, no irons) only touches my hair, SERIOUSLY, when I go to the salon, 4 times a year and I still get split ends 😩 This will definitely be worth a try🤗
FYI this applies to all hair types. Not just us black beauties. Women take care of you Whole heartedly. Love yourself. And specifically to us- remember your hair is precious and most diverse. WE CAN DO ANYTHING! PeriodT!
Finally an HONEST person speaking on their hair growth. I remember when a beautician cut my hair short like that. Early 2000’s I didn’t call it a big chop lol I just wanted my hair cut. I was a huge Motions product fan. My hair grew back fuller and healthier. It wasn’t til I started wearing wigs and sew ins that my hair started becoming damaged. But I’ve only been getting braid either my real hair braided down or a braided style keeping my hair moisturized
Its interesting how we think its unbelievable that our hair can grow so long or hold a beautiful style naturally even its short! I first went natural in 2005. Even with 4-6 inches of hair I someone believing my real hair was fake. A little maintenance and tlc goes a long way. Your hair is proof!
Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you chica. I knew it was simple but having someone put it into words confirms what it's going to take and that's patience!
Exactly, people are just so stupid and expect us to be bald-headed. Like people are finding any reason to say her hair is fake because apparently blk womans hair doesn't grow past shoulderlength
@@babymochi6733 Honestly, why is our hair such a huge talking point/discussion. If you wear wigs you're bald-headed or don't like you hair, if you wear you natural fro you're called nappy headed or if it's long you're mixed or ''it's tracks. People care too damn much about hair. People in the comments already insisting her hairs fake smh
I’ve trimmed my hair every 3-4 months and my hair has grown so fast and long. Do what works for your hair. I’ve seen significant growth to my hair just by getting trims alone. I think it’s important to only get trims if you need them though.
Right only if you need them. If you are not putting any chemicals or heat in your hair on a regular basis and retaining moisture then you don’t need to trim at all because your hair and ends should be healthy.
“Do what works for your hair” is the best advice ever! I was listening to girls saying don’t even use blow dryers and my hair would get badly tangled and dry because it is too coily in it’s natural state and no heatless stretching worked so I started using the blow dryer on low and I now see better results and I only have to wash my hair bi weekly now instead of weekly
My hair is almost to my waist which was my goal by age 30! I wore twists all last year I literally do nothing to my hair! I have 4b hair! I’ve been growing my hair since 2015. But honestly having a baby grew my hair crazy! I still take my prenatals which work wonders! I drink water, I trim 2xs a year, and do braids twice a year
Yep girl, pregnancy and taking prenatal vitamins helped grow my hair too. I’m 2 months postpartum and I plan on stopping anytime soon because the results have been unbelievable ❤️😇
I love this video! A very honest, straightforward approach to haircare. I have been following pretty much the same routine for the past year and my hair has grown so much! New subscriber 👌🏾

Such a sweet lady! Love the hair and those tips are soooo TRUE!! I grew my daughter hair waist length at 3 years old doing what she’s saying! Too cheap to buy all those products so I make my own!
You just retained all your hair and thats key. Hair grows, we just manipulate it or improperly care for it which causes us to lose it. There is no real way to speed up how fast your hair grows. Its always growing, just make sure youre keeping all the length.
Yesss 🙌🏾 Healthy hair grows!! It took me so long to realize that AA women could grow their hair to waist length. Mine has grown so much from not trimming my ends! I wish I would’ve known about that tip sooner because my beauticians were trimming my ends way too often 🤦🏾♀️
your hair is soooo gorgeous! It's so amazing how us black women can grow our own hair and it comes out beautiful and is more satisfying because it's our own hair! Watching natural youtubers as a young girl 13/14 years old really inspired me on my hair journey and gave me hope that if these girls can do it, I can do it too. I transitioned with braids and cut my dead relaxed ends off. I couldn't believe a full, thick head of hair was hiding in my scalp 😆. I hope my short message encourages someone. God bless you!
You should never have to prove yourself! No matter what people say ok? It's either they believe you or they don't! Thank you for coming on here and speaking your truth. If people don't like it or believe you they should keep it moving! I'm on a hair journey and this is major inspo for me, thank you!
Both natural hair or relaxed can grow long and healthy the most important thing you look after your hair also protective hair styles is a girls best friend and try hair products that’s suits your hair type
Girl I literally just found you so thank you so much for talking about the relaxed hair, 👏🏾 I have relaxed and people almost made me feel like I was crazy 🤣🤷🏽♀️
@@maroonhorizon1693 did you know that Latin American include an array of languages and accents, namely Portuguese, which is a language spoken in Africa, particularly Angola, hence why I mentioned Latin American?!
I don't trim my hair, period!!! What I do is pay attention to the roots as much as I do the ends. I moisturise and treat and keep them in protective style. My hair is long!!!!
Last month was my first time trimming my hair in two years because I mostly wear my hair natural. My hair is the same length as hers and it looks healthy after trimming.
Great video! I love your hair. I'm in faux locs now, extensions but in March when they come out I'm def doing a length check. Trimming my hair less frequently really made the difference. I agree with you on that! You're very beautiful!
Your hair is so pretty it looks like a wig! Is so thick. I love it. I trim only once 3 to 6 months. I use henna for my color for sure. It makes my hair shine.great tips
I just chopped off my hair bc albeit it long and natural I put a lot of heat on it during the heart of the pandemic ... My hair was falling out I’ve had bald spots and on 2/7 I shaved it all I’m going to be patient and let it happen ... thanks for sharing
Beautiful young lady. Females used to ask me what type of weave is that - my response was it’s mine sis but what worked for me was braids.. cornrows and leave it alone for months. Wash and redo all year got it mid way my back. These are my hair goals!
It's not that our hair won't grow, it's just we do things that break it off!
Bingo!
The key to keep it moisturized.
Preach..
Honestly most times it doesn't even be that, in it's natural state my hair is about 4x shorter cuz it shrinks. Straightened people can see the length.
and it's because of shrinkage!!!!
The fact that us black women have to prove that our natural hair is long is just so sad, I can not stand our society.
It shows health and responsibility.
I’m tired of the obsession with long hair. I cut mine off last weekend to shoulder length and will probably cut more. I love it.

7-After deep conditioner use leave-in moisturizer, then use hair oil on top of that
8-Manipulate as little as possible (avoid tiny braids, frequent styling , etc), use head wraps and wigs instead if needed (keep your hair locked away)

Such a sweet lady! Love the hair and those tips are soooo TRUE!! I grew my daughter hair waist length at 3 years old doing what she’s saying! Too cheap to buy all those products so I make my own!
The honesty 😍🙌🏾 thank you
I appreciate you honesty and accent!!
i was so happy to see her hold up the same oil that i use on my hair , i feel like i’m actually doing something right for once 😭
You just retained all your hair and thats key. Hair grows, we just manipulate it or improperly care for it which causes us to lose it. There is no real way to speed up how fast your hair grows. Its always growing, just make sure youre keeping all the length.
Honestly I am SO happy for you! 🤍
Love how real you are!!! Keeping it simple is so nice to hear 😩 Definitely subscribed!
U need more likes. Too real. Appreciate your honesty💯
Thx 4 the tips! Your hair is gorgeous!
Thank you so much 💖
Great great tips...U kept it plain, simple and truthful ..Thank u!!!
You’re so gorgeous and your hair looks so healthy and beautiful!
Yesss 🙌🏾 Healthy hair grows!! It took me so long to realize that AA women could grow their hair to waist length. Mine has grown so much from not trimming my ends! I wish I would’ve known about that tip sooner because my beauticians were trimming my ends way too often 🤦🏾♀️
Awesome advice! We have to learn what our hair likes, keep it simple and have a routine that’s what has helped me most 💙
Totally agree 🌸💖🌼
You and your hair is beautiful. I appreciate the honesty and simplicity of the video explaining tips for growth.
Your hair & skin looks glowing & your hair looks so lush & healthy. Good job!
your hair is soooo gorgeous! It's so amazing how us black women can grow our own hair and it comes out beautiful and is more satisfying because it's our own hair! Watching natural youtubers as a young girl 13/14 years old really inspired me on my hair journey and gave me hope that if these girls can do it, I can do it too. I transitioned with braids and cut my dead relaxed ends off. I couldn't believe a full, thick head of hair was hiding in my scalp 😆.
I hope my short message encourages someone.
God bless you!
You should never have to prove yourself! No matter what people say ok? It's either they believe you or they don't! Thank you for coming on here and speaking your truth. If people don't like it or believe you they should keep it moving! I'm on a hair journey and this is major inspo for me, thank you!
I appreciate that so much 🙏🏾🌸🌸💖
Thank you!!
You remind me a bit of that actress Reagan Gomez-Preston.

Best thing I’ve heard... “keep it simple” and be patient. 😊
Very true I need patience it took you 6 years that helps me feel better thanks for the honesty
Thank you so much for appreciating it 😊🌸💖
Best advice I've heard about natural hair! Most people telling you to use like 10 products. Thank You!
This is really good info! Love the hair color too!
Thank you 💖
I LOVE your accent, It sounds like your from Angola or Latin America! I can hear you talk all day!!!!
She is liberian nigerian beautiful accent indeed
Where do you hear the Latina America lolololol
@@maroonhorizon1693 did you know that Latin American include an array of languages and accents, namely Portuguese, which is a language spoken in Africa, particularly Angola, hence why I mentioned Latin American?!
Agree
YAsss with the pause to do the THUMBNAIL PIX..lol..Love it Sis!
Sis speaking facts. Love it!
You entruly blessed with thick hair, not all of us have that beautiful hair.
Yes I'm trying to get my hair healthy.
Great video
Thank you so much, I appreciate it 🙏🏾💖
I don't trim my hair, period!!!
What I do is pay attention to the roots as much as I do the ends. I moisturise and treat and keep them in protective style.
My hair is long!!!!
Thanks for the truthful video. Your hair is lovely!🤗
Your hair is beautiful! Thanks for the good advice.
Beautiful hair. I cut off my locks that were pass my shoulder. I am now growing it back without locks.
Thank you.
A big chop feels like a whole new life.
You should totally take pictures to remember this time. I wish I had more
Last month was my first time trimming my hair in two years because I mostly wear my hair natural. My hair is the same length as hers and it looks healthy after trimming.
Your hair is stunning.
Great reminders. Love your vibes.
Great video! I love your hair. I'm in faux locs now, extensions but in March when they come out I'm def doing a length check. Trimming my hair less frequently really made the difference. I agree with you on that! You're very beautiful!
Thank you so much 🥺🌸💖
I really wanna try faux locs too omg
@@Msziya you definitely sbould!!
This is great...I will follow the cutting my hair once a year to see where my growth lands. If need be no more than 2 trims yearly. Thanks!
Totally, and after an extended period of growth you can decide to cut it when you’re ready.
Great job! Your hair is so pretty.
Thanks for the video. Especially the part about not having to buy a ton of expensive products.
Your hair is so pretty it looks like a wig! Is so thick. I love it. I trim only once 3 to 6 months. I use henna for my color for sure. It makes my hair shine.great tips
Thank you so much 💖🌼
Henna is great. some people say it moisturizes their hair and others say it dries their hair out,
Personally I like it.
I just chopped off my hair bc albeit it long and natural I put a lot of heat on it during the heart of the pandemic ... My hair was falling out I’ve had bald spots and on 2/7 I shaved it all I’m going to be patient and let it happen ... thanks for sharing
This girl is telling the truth all the way around everybody let's applaud her!👍👏💯
Thank you, Ms Ziya 💐 I’ve learned to ‘dust’ my thin, fragile hair. ‘Dusting’ removes fairy knots, split ends & damaged strands, but NOT length.
Beautiful young lady. Females used to ask me what type of weave is that - my response was it’s mine sis but what worked for me was braids.. cornrows and leave it alone for months. Wash and redo all year got it mid way my back. These are my hair goals!
Oh my am one of those that subscribed to trim every month. I think this is why I don’t see much growth. Thanks for this video big thumbs up 👌❤️
Thank you for that insight.
I like your attitude, honey. Thank you for the good advice.
