I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt like these natural hair videos were getting ridiculous. Thank you for taking it back to the basics. Gotta learn to crawl before you walk lol
😂😂😂😂 like the water method 😭😭😭
Please know you are NOT wasting your time making tutorials such as this!! Thanks again!
I def. appreciate a bare-bones, simple hair regimen because I'm over this huge fear of shampoo that has somehow permeated the natural hair community. & Nobody needs a 13 oil mix to get their follicles "stimulated". It's getting too too too extra out here lmao like what's really going on? Who has time to pre-poo overnight, clay wash, co-wash, finger detangle, LOC method, twist, air dry for 48 hrs, and then twist out? Naw.
13 oil mix 😂😂😂😂 they are doing the most!!!
Exactly what I always say! Hahaha! My hair was longer and healthier when I was basic and didn't over analyze every product/technique I used!
Girrrl, you telling the truth!
Truth 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Ain't no lies told 😂😂😂😂😂
yup!! Thats my style too!! Minimalistic AF! Not afraid of shampoo or sulfates *shots fired* loollll
hey dude
wassssup
Headchampion nothin much . how you doin?
LOL, I'm the same way. I'm loc'd but I recently posted a 2 years loc video and one of the things I mentioned was that I don't care about all that jazz..I buy what cleans my scalp!
Basic is what's been working. TH-cam and beauticians was the death of my hair until I listened to you and Damien Walter.
WHEW!!!!!! No confusion, no double talk, no leaving anything to the imagination! Thank you for this concise, succinct, explanation!
I always avoided the natrual hair community for years and stuck with relaxers, people in the natrual hair community made natrual hair seem confusing an extremely difficult to take care of, it feels like more of a burden than actually enjoying your natural hair. I just started going natural and I really do appreciate you taking it back to the basics, and showing people that you don't have to go through hell to take care of your hair.
Some women in the natural hair community had my brain FRIED trying to figure this thing out 3 years ago lol but not anymore. It can be overwhelming if you let it
Thank you for back to the basics series.I am 58 years old and back in the 70s had a beautiful afro and it was healthy with just water and ultra-sheen.I have been natural since 2013 with stagnate growth trying to keep up with the naturals spending excessive amounts of monies on creams,butters and leave ins,I wanted to go and get my relaxer back my hair was so harsh..Since I saw your video,I have gone back to a wash with a DC weekly ,using water,hair grease and jamican black castor oil
now my hair is showing me some love and I love it back.Thank-you😍😉
Thanks for the video. It confirmed a lot of my feelings concerning washing and conditioning ect ect ect... If you just take a step back and listen to your hair and scalp everything becomes clear as day. I was trying everything from standing on one foot while i prepoo on days with a full moon and rinsing with cold water but only while barking like a dog but i stopped all that. I just use any shampoo and conditioner and i wash when needed. Nothing more nothing less!
hahaha 😂😂
Exactly!!!
Your funny!
MISSDAJAVU22 lol enjoyable comment
MISSDAJAVU22 lol
Thank you for an informative video. I hate when people make you feel bad because you wash your hair more than once every 3 years, like boo I got me.
I really appreciate your realness. Your background isnt a white wall and you don't promote non sense. I keep my regimen fairly simple. I wash my hair every two weeks and it responds well to that. Keep dem videos coming.
Thank you because all that extra stuff is WAY too much ... how come it was so simple when our mothers did our hair and it grew like hell ?? ... 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔.... I'm with you on this one 💯
right, I had hair for days back then
I'm glad you talked about the use of cold water for rinsing, that shit don't work. My hair feels softer and so much better while using lukewarm water. Thank you!!
I think you should continue the series simply because I think a lot of people HAVE gotten out of touch with natural hair. It's hair, it needs to be taken care of like the rest of your body. I have been natural for 10 years and I did lose touch by becoming a product junky and having to have the latest accessory to help with the growth of my hair. By doing that, I notice that my texture changed and my hair was drying than ever. I had to do a second mini chop and I'm so glad you made this video just in time for me to remember that less is more. My husband always say K.I.S.S. keep it simple stupid...Thank you for keeping it real.
Listen, I got licensed as a shampoo tech back in the day and know this infomation, I just love to watch your videos. I have 5 brothers already but you're like another little brother in my head.
Awww thank you that really means so much. I really enjoy watching you and your videos too sis! ^_^
Love the way you explain WHY you do what you do so that we understand. Love the way you debunk all the garbage that is fed to us on TH-cam.Love the way you are not afraid to challenge the junk floating around the natural hair community. I'm relaxed by the way and I still benefit from your videos. Clean and simple. Love it!🌻
I have been over the 3hr process cleaning and styling. I now have 30 min max wash n style. Shampoo, condish, sometimes grease n water to style. My hair hasn't fallen out yet.
Please keep the series going and continue to debunk these myths. it's funny that my hair was in much better shape and I retained more length before I found all the "techniques" on TH-cam. I finally got back to the basics and my hair is doing great. Love your openness and honesty!
Thank you! 🙌🏾 I hate when people say just rub it on your scalp and it'll clean the rest of your hair on the way down...how sway? 🙃
Yeas. What will wash away all that shea butter and loc products
Cassie Charles absolutely. I tried that and my dc would never penetrate. I mean I prepoo w/ oil in DIRTY hair , shampoo SCALP ONLY with no sulphate, then expect my deep conditioner to penetrate all that gunk. man you live and you learn.
I'm so over the extra that has become the norm with washing our hair. I've pretty much gone back to the way my mom used to do my hair. Shampoo, condition, oil and plat. Maybe an occasional twist out. Thank you for keeping it simple. Love your videos.
I love that you also do these demonstrations on short hair. There are a lot of videos on people with long hair.
I learned a lot about how shampoo actually works. Yes please do the series.
Hi! I've seen thousands of natural hair videos and this is the first time i've felt the need to comment and say YOU ARE THE BEST. You need to continue this series because people are getting really extra with their hair and stressing themselves out. Also, youre hair is rlly cute!
This was very informative. It can be overwhelming trying to figure out what to do and how to best take care of natural hair. I've been natural since 2011 but only started learning how to take care of my hair 7 months ago. It's been trial and error ever since. I really appreciate when people say, "what's worked for my hair may not work for everyone". I tend to take those people, like yourself, more seriously because I feel like they genuinely want to help others and not just trying to get more subscribers. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos because it shows that you care and know what you're talking about. Please keep the series going! I will definitely be back to watch.
I don't mind the lengthy videos, I love seeing and hearing about your hair.
back to the basics is always a good thing to do I say yes to the series
I agree, all these different methods are so confusing sometimes and I can never keep up. Great video!
Please continue this series!! I have seen a lot of videos that make taking care of natural hair seem extra complicated and it's not. One of my daughters hair is VERY thick and your video just helped me figure out how to better cleanse her hair. Thank you!
Love this!! Although I've been natural for quite some time, it's refreshing to see a video without the glitz and glamour as you said. I hope you decide to continue this series. I, for sure, will be watching!
I love ALL of your educational, informative videos, so of course, I want to see the series continue. We learn a lot from you! This might seem redundant to some people, but I wouldn't mind seeing you do the wash and condition video again, but on a natural head with more length. Seeing you wash longer hair while keeping it stretched would help a lot of us. Even though you are keeping it simple, there have to be some differences between taking care of shorter hair versus longer hair. Or maybe we'll find out it's just as simple. 🙂
yes these type of videos are beyond helpful. Many people who do natural hair videos always assume but I feel sometimes you need to take it back to the basics as you stated, and just show the proper techniques of taking care of hair period. Thanks for the video and keep the coming.
No views so far. Never been this early!
I love your videos, and I love how clear your explanations are!
Haha get it while it's fresh and hot! Lol thank you!
+AfrikanHairGod Lol!
yes i LOVE this series! it helps put positive vibes out to love and learn how to care for your own hair. i think a lot of people get caught up into trying to achieve the hair of someone here on youtube rather than trying to achieve the healthiest hair possible. great tips and ill definitely say that i got the techniques that i took from this from you in future vids! keep them coming please! =]
Yes! Please keep on doing these. All of these methods out here were cool to try, but it can get a bit overwhelming. I'm trying to just keep it simple now.
Yes to the series. Your videos have always been so helpful! Great video
I'm glad I've been so helpful to your hair journey. Thank you for watching!
I've had natural hair for over ten years and you mentioned stuff here I wasn't aware that I needed to do after all this time.
Thank you for this video. Everywhere I have looked has made the process seem so difficult and long. You have just made me happy that I'm natural. I almost went back to the creamy crack.
Thank You!!!!! I'm going back to basic.
Thank you so much for this series! All the information online can be confusing, time consuming and overwhelming at best!
Thank you so much for this video. Please Please keep them coming. I will be watching.👀
Thank you for sharing, very informative!
Yes, plz. continue. Your videos always make so much sense. Really appreciate basics without the hoopla. U r so right-getting ridiculous in the natural world.
You just made it so simple! I'm at the point where I just need everything to be simple in my life. This definitely helps!
thank you for this series please continue them ..new subbie and newly natural 3 months I need all the help I can get 😆
I love this series! It honestly feels how simple basic hair care is supposed to be bcs I know last yr when I was 15 everything was sooo overwhelming with the co washing, all these different products, diy hair masks and butters and conditioners I didn't know where to start! 😂 please continue this series!!!
Wow! I've watched several of your videos and I appreciate all the information you are sharing! Thank you so much!❤
Miss Elmyra you are very welcome! Thank you so much for watching!
As always; chock full of truth and realness. Always a favorite.
So true...if you do what's "natural" you'll never have to learn how to do it...we the only people who have to "learn" how to maintain our hair.
Thank you for this video!!!I have only been natural for a few months and due to my previous processes and all these natural hair "experts", I literally had to do a mini-chop of about 5 inches because of severe breakage and damage just this morning. CG, MHM, and all these crazy thing got me so confused until i stumbled onto you channel a few weeks back. i now only listen to you and one other youtuber that i researched. Although i had to chop, i am so excited to feel my new growth coming in soft and healthy with the added benefit of feeling the real texture of my curls that i haven't felt since I was five ( I am forty). So again, thank you for doing what you do and please dont ever stop giving us the real straight truth on natural hair!!!
Thank You!! Bringing Sanity back to hair care!! Keep them coming please!!
🙌 I so needed this !! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this information. It is informative and easy to apply to one's daily life. I'm a simple human being who loves simple things. I look forward to your back to basics series. ✌❤
thank the Lord for back to basic hair care!!
I'm grateful for the time & effort you put into your videos! Thank you for sharing😊
Great! Be encouraged. You are helping many.
Spot on! This is what is needed and I applaud you for stepping out and stepping up. I look forward to the series.
Love this video. Thank you for sharing. It's right on time too. I was doing way too much my hair was not happy.
I was at the airport and just surfing through TH-cam about hair videos and I came across you. I really like how simple this video was unlike other people where they are doing just too much for me. You have gained a new sub.
😊 You and I would have a love/hate relationship. But you know your ish! Thank you for doing this series! I big chopped for the third time in June and now my husband wants me to grow my hair back out 😣 You're right on time! I'll catch up. Please continue with more videos! Thank you. 😍
Bravo Bravoooo 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 yes bring it ALL the way Back! Think a few of us that I've seen so far are doing this! I've decided to start making my own DIY hair products very simple! Three years in and I'm so over everything already! This was well needed! 😍😍😍
Welcome back! Yes please! We need to get back to basics with all this diy recipes for disaster floating around!😁
I totally love this video...please keep doing the series.
Yes, please keep this series going! I will continue to watch it! You don't understand how much I learned in these 16 minutes! :)
please keep doing these videos I love this back to basics. I think we all need a good reminder.
I liked this very much. I didn't know about the pulling/stretching while using conditioners. Please continue these series. The length was okay.
Please continue with this awesome series. I would love for you to discuss simplistic deep conditioning. I don't want to do all that pre-pooing and post-pooing stuff that I see many other folks doing. It is just too much.
Please continue. Very refreshing to see someone keeping it simple!
Really good and sensible advise. Too much misconceptions about caring for natural hair, it all really comes down to the basics, and treating your hair and scalp as an extension of your body, which is what in essence it is.
. I'm just lo
Please continue the series! I learned so much already. You're so right about letting your hair dry a little or get damp. My hair is always dripping when I go to the next step. I have diluted my hair with product and not even realized it. Thanks for the tips!
We appreciate you. Don't stop!!
PLEASE keep doing these vids!!! LOL The information is so helpful. Thank you for sharing!
I love your informative videos. You have done plenty on techniques. I think these would be good for beginners 😊. Thanks for all the time you put into them.
Yes please keep this series going! Your knowledge is so needed! I loved this video
Please continue the series, thank you.
thank you so much for the comprehensive, down to earth back to basics video series. I have been a natural for the last 3 years and overwhelming is an understatement. I think it would help all that watch. I look forward to the rest of the series
followed every step today when washing and it feels fabulous. it worked just like u said lots of bubbles on second lather. condition ed like a dream
Yay that's great! Thanks for sharing your experience!
I wish I knew about this channel earlier
Thank you for starting this series. I'm am an old natural, but I find that your videos are extremely helpful.
Wow. I have hair dresses in my family, so I've seen how to properly wash hair my whole life, but with no explanation. I always saw the second wash get foamy (never knew why), I remember always having "squeaky" hair. I did just a "cowash" last week and my hair didn't seem "right". I had very healthy hair as a child, now I know why.
Loved the video! Please continue with the series!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!!!
Great video! I just decided to go back to the basics and my hair is thriving. Back to shampoo and silicones. Please keep the series going!!!!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Because LAWD! I'm not even going to get started....just thank you!!!!!
your video is the one i can watch without skipping any part
thank you so much..keep the vid coming.
I am super happy that I watched this video. You said what I am feeling. I feel like some people just do too much to get the same end result...and that is just clean hair. I do the same thing you do and I learned some new tips from you. I really enjoyed this video and hope that you continue to make the series. I am about to share this video with my coworker because she is like me when it comes to her natural hair. 😊
Please continue! Love your videos!
Please keep the videos or series coming.Thank you.
I think it's great what you're doing with taking us back to the basics. Very informative video. Thank you!
Thank you! This made so much since. You are right about it being overwhelming and extra out there! I appreciate you bringing it back to basics for those of us that need a common since plan of action.
