I have very dark/black, curly/afro hair and my hair is almost to my knees. I only wash my hair every 2-3 weeks when my hair is down but keep it in 2 braids, and when I have mini twist, I wash 1x a month. Leaving your hair alone is the key. And for dry ends, I suggest just water and using grease to seal the water. Grease is an amazing sealant!
I think glycerin in water or honey is better because plain water évaporation strips the lipids but humectants don't leasing ur hair moisturized longer❤❤❤(for kinky hair)
I'm trying to grow my afro. I'm starting again after I have these extentions out. Can you give me some advice please? For me and my daughter? I was just saying to my husband today that a lot of us don't know how to treat our hair. We do the best we can but we just don't know.. so can you help me a little please? Thank you xxx
@No_Frills_Carnivore sure. It starts with the inside. So making sure you get the hydration, vitamins and minerals. And for your hair, moisture, messages and just letting it be.
@@missdatoo9590 thank you. I have the nutrition down thankfully. I just didn't know what to do with my hair.. how to treat it so it will grow. I will definitely take your advice for me and my daughter. Thank you and God bless xxx
@No_Frills_Carnivore you're welcome. Have you tried mini twist? Or any low maintenance style really. My mom used to braid my sister and I's hair, and would keep them in for almost 6 months before she redid them. And the water and grease helped keep it moisturized
My grandmother's hair was dragging a foot on the ground when she married. After 15 kids it was at knee length when she died. One of the things I learned in beauty school was how to singe the hair. You need help to do it, but is very effective. Take very small amounts of hair and twist it extremely tight. Run your fingers up the twist and any split ends will pop out of the twist. Then with a lighter quickly run a flame along the shaft. It will only burn the split ends because there is no oxygen in the twist. This leaves the ends of the hair smooth and sealed. You will also find split ends less often. When twisting only twist the length you can twist very tight, ie a foot. Then work your way along the section of hair. Much more effective than your scissor method.
Lots of great advice! I'd add: wide headbands and bun forks can be jazzed up with flowers, lace etc to channel that excitement and interest in your hair, and make styles look special.
I soooooo agree with you that “your scalp will produce the best oil for your hair”! I call sebum “Mother Nature’s hair oil”, so I do sebum distribution da with a Mason Pierson day 3 to wash day, which is every 7-10 days. It helps clean the scalp and brings the sebum down to the mids-ends, and stimulates the scalp. 😊
referencing the hairwashing: I've made the experience, that it is easier to expand the time between washes if your hair is long. The oils will be absorbed by the hairlengths and you can help the process with a brush with boar bristles.
using wooden combs and boar bristle brushes will help distribute oil and clean the hair better than using a dry shampoo. I would use dry shampoo in a pinch (you can make your own with cornstarch) but if you know how to comb your hair properly you can get rid of the oil without washing or using any product to soak it up. Also, just wanted to say that knowing your porosity is important to know what kind of oils you should be using. I have low porosity hair and coconut oil destroys it. It's wayyyyy better for me to use thinner oils that can actually penetrate the hair shaft.
Try using rice water mixed with aloe vera, and massage your scalp for 15-20 minutes, then roll your hair up and cover it with a cloth or turban. Wait for 2 hours then wash thoroughly with water. You can do it once a week or once every 2 weeks.
See Red Yao village, they use rice water to wash their hair and women there only cut their hair once at 17, and their hair doesn't come into contact with a razor for the rest of their lives.
This is the one and ONLY hair video anyone needs!!!! I have thick knee length hair and I do everything in this video except the dry shampoo. I wear a lot of top knots too so the hair is resting directly on top of my head rather than pulling down on it. So Pay attention kids, 99% of the hair care/hair growth tricks videos you see out there are complete garbage! This is the way! The TRUE way to grow super long healthy hair. Don’t listen to those girls with shoulder length or waist length hair if you are going for longer! Listen to those who have the length you desire.
I love watching holistic habits! Her hair is fantastic and she doesn't use crazy products. I learned about apple cider vinegar rinses and oiling because of her.
As a black girl who has almost butt length hair, I agree with your points besides the dry shampoo. Simplicity from wash routine to products to braids is best for health and length 🍃.
Okay so… I’m Brazilian and I go to a church where women don't cut their hair, and we have a beautiful very very very long hair. So, im a person who have long hair and lives with other long hair girls. Please don’t do it! Even girls who have their hairs dragging the floor don’t wash their hair every 2 weeks. It smells so bad and your hairs never beautiful because it’s always greasy. Don’t do it, it won’t grow your hair or make it beautiful/thick. wash your hair very little, as it causes many hair problems. Listen to me, I used to do this and wash my hair once a week for a long time. It never worked and my hair was always greasy, oily and ugly, even though it was naturally dry (it was never naturally oily. In my church the girls have beautiful thick hair and they wash their hair 1-3 times a week, never less or more. Dry shampoo clogs hair follicles and causes long-term hair loss, don’t use it so much. Of course Brazil is a hot and a tropical country, so we wash our hair more, but every 2 weeks it’s a bad frequency…
I will agree with you here, I did the "only wash once or twice a week" and I ended up with an itchy scalp and now I'm using prescription shampoo, I also got a sturn telling off by a dermatologist. While some people may benefit from infrequent hair washing most it won't do a lot of good. Zelda did state at the start of the video that not all her tips will be suitable for everyone but most ill agree with, for example having a balanced diet, not buying into fad social media "quick fixes" Best advice I would advise anyone struggling to grow their hair is getting your blood work done and have a full M.O.T. Check your thyroid, your hormone levels. I did and found I was deficient in vitamin D and my thyroid needed medication
I’m confused because what’s the point of having long, beautiful hair if you don’t style it and show it off? I don’t want to have my hair in a braid for the rest of my life lok
Nobody asked you clicked on the video ok just becouse your hair is not healthy don't mean you have to be rude other people want healthy long hair like hers and think long hair is beautiful ok😁😊👍🌟👌
@@Gggggg-h3phoney 😂 it’s a legitimate concern. If you are wearing your hair in a braid for the rest of your life, you might as well wear a fake braid. No one would see the difference. I'm not trying to be rude, it's just common sense. Usually people grow their hair to wear it down beautifully, not "forget about it"
I only use a good shampoo and conditioner...that's it. Besides using olive oil on my ends, my hair is down to my tailbone. I don't use heat, nor hair dryer, no dry shampoo ( that will clog your follicles) and I brush it every night with a wooden brush, them I put in braids. My hair is 2 c wavy, also I use hair sticks sometimes, no elastics. Olive oil has done wonders.
Try using leave in conditioner after towel drying on mids and ends, hair loses moisture after it dries and use very fine oil just on ends once a day to keep them smooth and hydrated.
Boar bristle brushes are also good for the hair. I use one in the morning to get lint or other stuff out of my hair, plus it distributes the oil already there to the rest of the hair. My cat likes to sleep around my head so yeah have to get it out somehow 😅 Also I protect my hair by braid or braids, mainly in a bun or wrapped around the head and covered with a scarf. I have seen results. It does help. My hair is below my tailbone. If anyone has questions about hair let me know! 😊❤
Awww you’re so beautiful!! I have 3c Afro texture curly hair. My hair length is at my butt at the moment . It took me 3 years starting at bra starp length to get there. My current goal is to get my hair to my knees. Next I want it to my ankles😂 we pretty much have the same hair care regimen thanks for the video ❤
Butt length hair with knee length goal here too! Honestly the hardest part of this video is brushing it less often. The tangles for one, but I also just love the feeling of combing my hair until it's silky smooth, and it's very meditative for me. I currently comb it twice a day, but I guess I could go down to only once in the morning. I also feel like I don't have time to oil it as extensively in the morning as I do in the evening.
@@magiv4205 Totally feel that! I need to work on the less brushing as well. I also make sure to at least try to remember at night to apply oil. I do sometimes during the day/in the morning but depends the style. Your comment actually brought me back here, like a little reminder so thank you for that!!
I take pumpkin seed oil supplements for bladder pain syndrome because it's good for urinary support. But this is also good for hair growth especially hair loss.
I tried the tips from the blowout professor, and before I did, I couldn't go two days before my hair got oily, then when I tried his tips, I was able to go 3 days before washing. Now, when my day 3 hair wash comes up, i have noticed that my hair doesn't really need washed. I am definitely going to try to work up to the 2 week hair wash, may or may not work but if I can get more than 3-4 days before washing my hair, I will be very happy!!!! I have been growing my hair out for over 20 years, and because of medication and many surgeries, I have lost so much hair, even have patchy thin spots under my hair! And, it's barely to my waist! It's so depressing 😢, but I have been trying to stay positive and pray and be patient, with 2 of those being very hard to do 😂!
Not everyone can go 2 weeks without washing their hair, it depends on genetics and your environment. I have very fine curly/wavy hair and I live in a VERY hot and humid place so I can only go about 5 days without washing. It stays in the 90s-100s here and humidity is always 80%. I can't regulate my body temp so I am always sweaty. Sometimes I go a week without washing and I use a bit of cornstarch in between.
I also took tips from Blowout Professor and it was a game changer. My hair was always very hoarse and scratchy, oh go how a simple oil changed that and it doesn't tangle like crazy anymore 😀
I only wash my hair every two week. I have a different hair type, but she is correct. My hair doesn't produce oil like white people. I must add oil. My hair is growing a inch per month and it is down my weight. I use organic Ayurvedic haircare DIY I make at home.
I 💯 agree with everything but the brushing less, you in fact have only once a week. I use a bamboo brush on my mid thigh length hair every morning and evening. I don’t want tangles to form, I believe tangles cause damage.
I watched your whole. 😮😮😅 I was great ! I want to watch again soon! I also want to share something with you! My husband was a Church of Christ Minister! He passed sway 2 days before Christmas 2023. I know he has gone to be with the Lord because we obeyed the Gospel! The I le says if we hear the word of God, believe it repent of our sins, confess that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God and live a Christian life; when we die we will have eternal life with God; our Heavenly Father!
I just learned that when your hair is wet, especially damp, your hair is 33% weaker and more prone to braking. Also, I learned to use a 100% boar bristle brush after detangling your hair with your fingers. To distribute the oils through your hair when you brush your hair. Plastic is not good for your hair, especially if it's wavy curly hair.
@@ari-jv true, but what's best for one's hair may not be good for another's hair, so we have to do what's best for our individual needs for our hair care.
You have created the VERY BEST hair tutorial and I just learned so much from you, You explained everything I have been wondering about and now I so better understand what hair oils work best and how to use them. I've been overdoing it and actually causing more knots and tangles in my extremely long hair. At 72 years old, I'm proud that my hair is thick and has grown to my buttocks. I ignore all those who believe that once you reach a certain age you should cut all your hair off. That may be true if your hair is damaged, and doesn't look healthy. Sending you love and blessings. xoxo
Love your tips. I have ethnic curly wavy hair barely cut now to my lower back and I only wash and blow dry my hair once every two weeks too it is better. I also just leave it alone in braids 🤗💕
I had beautiful long hair for many years. I did exactly what this young lady did. Personally I felt what's the point of having long hair if I'm forever tying it up and getting constant headaches from the heaviness. So I decided to shave the whole lot off and donate it to a children's cancer foundation. I've had short hair ever scince and still love it. I felt so liberated lol. I don't miss my long hair but it's still lovely to see on others ☺️🎉
Means so much seeing you happy with such a wonderful and giant braid, reaching such an amazing hairlength milestone. Please keep your pride in your gorgeous and amazing mane, it suits you so very much, and it is so unique and special because it is so extremely well-cared. Thank you for sharing, dear Zelda, and wishing you the very best for your studies 😘❤
Thank you so much for this video, just what I needed to watch! When I see some of these other channels where they put so many products in their hair it makes me cringe, so nice that you explained it well!😍
I follow pretty much all steps you mentioned I have super long hair my whole life and this is the best hair care advice Ive heard . I turned this in for my daughters to hear how to take care of their hair since they don’t listen to me😂
I agree with you hair brushing massages and stimulates scalp for healthy hair production, helps distribute oils to lower ends if it's a boar's bristle brush the brush alone has improved the health of my hair and scalp. I brush out my hair every night with some rosemary and clove oil it's an aromatherapy bliss and quite relaxing way to end the night. Then I braid it up and put on my satin bonnet helps maintain my braid and keeps hair hydrated and protected from breakage.
My hair started getting really long when I was pregnant with baby number 4 and simply did not have the energy/mental capacity to style or wash it often (once every week or so then put in a bun once fully dry)
I watched all the way to the end!! Excellent video and excellent advice for all hair types! I’m African American with Type 4 Afro hair. I do have a relaxer but get no more than 3 per year and I’m now trying for just twice per year! This advice is great for all hair types and textures and whether chemically treated or now! Mine is between my bra strap and waist! I only use heat when I do a relaxer…thus, 3 times per year!! I find that when I wear wigs my hair grows very fast!! I think because it’s protected and not touched or messed with! There’s a lot of us long hair girls wearing wigs out here for this reason! Gives hair a break and grows super fast!! Thank you for this awesome video!!
@@GadielVaStar I first went natural back in ‘98 and folks thought I had lost my mind! I chopped my hair down to a TWA. Since that time…..wow, 26 years ago, I’ve grown it out long and natural, chopped, relaxed, texlaxed, etc. I’ve done it all and my hair has been healthy and long both ways. I know everyone is getting relaxers now but I’ve never been one to follow the crowd. I’ve been on TH-cam loving the natural hair videos and reminiscing for my natural hair! I’m now 23 weeks post relaxer and going to keep on going and transition! I’ll be trimming about a half inch per month for a long time! I’ve never had the patience for this do this will be fomenting new and fun!!🤩 The key is even with a relaxer, never forcing our hair on a regular or even semi regular basis to do something it’s not meant to do! All that heat styling and tight super long braids just messes people’s hair and/or scalps up!! Just love it and lovingly care for it gently and it will grow in any state!! Hope this is helpful!
I wish I could only wash my hair once every 1-2 weeks but I don't think everyone can, I have Seborrheic dermatitis and I feel like it would go crazy. My hair has always grown really fast and long and thick. I've been thinking about growing it as long as I can but I've heard it can cause hair loss on your hairline over time from the weight of it. Have you experienced that
Black woman think that they can't grow their hair long, but they can. Many of the tips she is giving can also work on dry hair. However, we must add natural oils to our hair.
You made me laugh. I like your video and subscribe immediately. Lol. I’m black and have a long plat possible half your length, and I keep it in plats everyday. Lol. It’s 7+ years of growth I’m not lazy, though. I love doing my hair everyday.😂 I don’t sleep on mine. I put it in a Hugh elastic band and a stocking every night. You gave great tips. 💕 And of course I watched to the end. Lol
For those that need dry shampoo but don’t want the chemicals of mainstream dry shampoo, you can make your own from either arrowroot powder or cornstarch mixed with cocoa powder, cinnamon, or nutmeg, or a mixture of the three to match your hair color so that it doesn’t look white on your hair if your hair is dark
Air drying hair is unrealistic in the winter. It's currently winter here in Australia and my hair takes at least half a day to dry without a hairdryer. And when you have to leave the house in the morning that's a no go. 🤔 I only air dry in warm weather. Currently it's 3C here. 🥶
You could try swirling it in luke warm water between washes,making sure you include your scalp. Its surprising how much oil and sweat will come out,and freshen up your hair. You might even find your ends need a bit of oil added after it air dries.
The “Lazy way” makes it seem so doable lol. I love this! I’ve been “mostly” healthy with my hair but I do a heatless straightening routine because I find my curly hair very hard to manage and I lose a lot when detangling. I wear it mostly down. I think I’ll try braiding more instead. Thanks for the tips! Nice to hear tips that don’t involve a bunch of sponsored chemicals 😂❤
My Sister's Hair is Longer Then Ur Hair is All the way to Floor Ankle Hair Legnth it is So Beautiful to my sister always were her hair in a Hair BUN She Never Dyes her hair Either Just all natural Color
My great aunt had ankle length hair and wore it in a braided crown on top of her head. I've long been trying to get enough length to even do one full wrap around. It's such a a beautiful style I think.
I getchu! If I have super long, healthy, beautiful hair, I want it to be an outstanding feature! 😊. Braids ARE pretty, protective, and practical, but it's only ONE hairstyle out of a million. I totally agree with less washing; as hard as it is! Lol
I already said in the intro but again: Sorry this isn't hair ASMR like the rest of my channel, but because I'm currently studying abroad in Japan, I don't have my fancy recording to make a nice quality ASMR video. So instead I just decided to update my hair care tips and tricks from the last time I made a video on my main channel! But this is my last month in Japan, so next time I have a video on this channel, I should be back in America with my high quality equipment! And sorry I keep looking off-screen to my notes every time before a clip cuts off.

Most my life I had thick shoulder length hair that beauticians claimed simply would never grow beyond that point it was genetically programmed. In 2014 my hair found itself suddenly and unexpectedly at my elbows. During this time circumstances beyond my control kept me from washing my hair daily. I was lucky if I got the opportunity to wash it twice a month. I started to realize most of what we've been taught about those who lived a few hundred years ago was crap info. It is quite possible to stay clean and have healthy hair with a lot less washing. I use all natural oils on my skin and hair now and have stuck to 2-4 washes of hair in a month. Avocado oil is my go to for skin and hair it is antibacterial antimicrobial and antifungal one can use as a leave in conditioner, antibacterial soap, baby oil/lotion, foot rub and more. I use a tad bit rosemary oil at night and some clove bud oil mostly for scent it also helps keep away lice and other bugs so I've read they used to use it for back in the day. I also use a Boar bristle brush to help smooth hair and bring scalp oils down to the ends. It's a very relaxing part of my self care routine. I often spritz my face and hair with rosewater it too is antibacterial antimicrobial antifungal cleanses & refreshes great stuff. Rose tea is also great for health and tasty. Occasionally I'll use Rose gold dry shampoo if I absolutely need a refresher. In my experience natural products straight from Mother Nature is best. I even made a homemade deodorant from avocado oil and a few essential oils I like works better than anything I've bought in stores. Now I often read up on how things were done in the past times and take some of their wisdom to heart. Back then it wasn't uncommon for women to have hip length or longer hair obviously they were doing something right and they didn't have the luxury of indoor plumbing. Right now my hair is middle of back because I stupidly did an emotional cutting a few years back that I instantly regretted my hair was nearly at my hips at that point. Feel like I'm starting over at least I'm over halfwAy there now. Maybe one day I'll have as long as yours...if I can keep from cutting it. Enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing with other young woman proper hair care without the gimmicks. Big point I agree on is vitamins and minerals preferably from eating real nutritious foods especially nuts every other day pistachios are a great multivitamin when used in moderation. It's another reason I use avocado oil it's packed with nutrients some of which can actually penetrate the skin and be used to nourish skin/hair (like zinc and vitamin E) do a nightly foot rub and it will help keep feet healthy and toenails healthy as well.
Thank you for sharing. ✨I have fine Afro cottony hair and I watched it all the way through. It has been a relief to be able to just forget about my hair. It delicate and doesn’t like to handled a lot. I stopped combing it years ago, so it is loc’d. This has been a relief of so much stress from trying to make my hair texture behave differently than its characteristics. 🌻✨
Everything she says in this video is what I learned through RESEARCH!!! I consume protein as well as do protein treatments because your body needs supplements to produce length and quality hair.
I tried training my hair for months to not wash it, and no matter what I did I was super greasy by day 3. And I even double shampooed. I think you should wash as often as you need when it starts feeling dirty
I lost a lot of hair because of stress due to the education system, I was so stressed before going to school that my hair was falling by handfuls. A lot of neurodivergent people have to deal with a lot of stress due to being unable to conform, my hair was always a way of measuring my mental health… this helps a lot especially the advice about just leaving it alone
I can't go more than a week without washing, my hair gets really greasy and heavy and will itch like mad so i wash about 1 to maybe 3x a week if i remember to, however i am very cautious about what shampoo and conditioner I use
Oh I love these tips, especially the one on how to detangle knots. I always have lots of knots, I get so impatient trying to pull the hair out of them.
On another hair blog I learned the following: finger detangle first, broad toothed comb second then finer toothed comb last. Done twice daily and using protective hairstyles, such as braids and buns. No heat. Protect hair at night will cause less tangles. Scalp massage with argan or jojoba oil with essential oils the night before. I use baking soda water to shampoo when I finally clean my hair/scalp with ACV to rinse and close cuticles and air dry. No heat.
As far as washing my hair goes, I'm trying to go the other way. I washed my hair in March and before that I hadn't washed my hair for 3 or 4 years. After I washed my hair in March, I haven't washed it since. I've been trying to get on a 2-week wash schedule. I have below the ear 4C hair type.
If you need to touch your hair it’s best to be in a good mood or a good frame of mind. Basically what you said with putting your hair aside for another time if you’re in a rush also if you’re in a terrible mood.
I agree with all techniques I will also add stop using conditioners with silicones and replace shampoo with something more natural like apple cider vinegar or ghassoul clay. Dry shampoo store bought isn't great other as it contains silicone get corn starch or ground fenugreek or amla powder, or if you dark mix half and half corn starch with Coco powder put it in icing sugar shaker and vuala you have abandoned of dry shampoo at your finger tips. From kitchen ingredients please avoid using baking soda too often it's drying too much.
It's not a critic of any sorts, these tips work for you and can work for other people I'm sure. I was also saying in the past "our ancestors did it like this, like that, they certainly couldn't do this or that." But who said our ancestors had beautiful hair???? 😂 They probably did not at all. They maybe had long hair but they were maybe not shiny and probably oily. On old paintings they usually look frizzy and dry... I don't think it's a good argument. I don't think we have actual information about our ancestors' hair health
Help, I go to the pool 3 times a week for my practice sessions what should I do?😭 if i dont wash my hair after every session my hair is gonna fqll out because of chloride...
I have one of the worst hair type unfortunately. Fine, dry brittle. I would never dare trying to brush my hair while dry unless it was straightened. I can only style my frizz ball if wet. I use a heavy duty gel to keep the frizz out. I do all the bad things for my hair type beciase of my hair type. Now I been getting a lot of hair loss I'm in my mid 30s. So if I just wet my hair will that still keep some of the oil in. I wish I had nice hair
I have extremely thick, shiny, long hair past my butt, I’m a 30 yr old white girl and I wash my hair every other day with head and shoulders lol!!! It’s crazy how different we all are ! I also stay away from all dye and heat products ❤
thank you so much!! i watched so many videos about hair growth and they all told me to buy expensive hair products and I'm so broke!! so you really helped me!!
It’s genetics!! Red Onion juice fresh with 3 minced garlic apply it twice a week and every time make new one m, and the left over throw it out That’s the only toner that was able to grow hair in my bald spots!
I feel like the only person in the world who’s hair and ends looks and feels better when I wash everyday 😭 I’ve been doing a year of once to twice a week washing and my hair has never been so hideous…. (I have hip length and trim a few times a year) but my hair is also extremely thick and curly so…. Maybe it needs the conditioner and water 🤷♀️
Thank you!!! FINALLY somebody else who only washes their hair every two weeks. I have thick, coarse, curly hair and it’s very different from yours but I also wash my hair once every two weeks.
If you don't want to use dry shampoo then get a boar bristles brush instead and clean the bristles with white vinegar extra striegth after each time you use it.
The idea to cut only the damaged hairs is really good - it's the first time I've ever heard about it even though it makes totally sense! As dry shampoo it is way better to go for corn starch, flour, clay powder and things alike than to use those chemical products.
NEVER EVER USE ANY PLASTIC BRUSH OR COMBS PLEASE WET BRUSH PULLS HAIRS USE WIDE TOOTH COMBS AND NATURAL BOAR BRISTLE BRUSH . YOU WILL THANK ME TRUST ME
It's true! My former Nurse Hairdresser said the same and I wash my hair maybe twice a week (it gets really oily by 3 days.). She said I've got the healthiest hair she's ever seen. She said products are B.S., the only "product" you need, is built in already!
Someone here in 2024?????

I have very dark/black, curly/afro hair and my hair is almost to my knees. I only wash my hair every 2-3 weeks when my hair is down but keep it in 2 braids, and when I have mini twist, I wash 1x a month. Leaving your hair alone is the key. And for dry ends, I suggest just water and using grease to seal the water. Grease is an amazing sealant!
I think glycerin in water or honey is better because plain water évaporation strips the lipids but humectants don't leasing ur hair moisturized longer❤❤❤(for kinky hair)
I'm trying to grow my afro. I'm starting again after I have these extentions out. Can you give me some advice please? For me and my daughter? I was just saying to my husband today that a lot of us don't know how to treat our hair. We do the best we can but we just don't know.. so can you help me a little please? Thank you xxx
@No_Frills_Carnivore sure. It starts with the inside. So making sure you get the hydration, vitamins and minerals. And for your hair, moisture, messages and just letting it be.
@@missdatoo9590 thank you. I have the nutrition down thankfully. I just didn't know what to do with my hair.. how to treat it so it will grow. I will definitely take your advice for me and my daughter. Thank you and God bless xxx
@No_Frills_Carnivore you're welcome. Have you tried mini twist? Or any low maintenance style really. My mom used to braid my sister and I's hair, and would keep them in for almost 6 months before she redid them. And the water and grease helped keep it moisturized
My grandmother's hair was dragging a foot on the ground when she married. After 15 kids it was at knee length when she died.
One of the things I learned in beauty school was how to singe the hair. You need help to do it, but is very effective. Take very small amounts of hair and twist it extremely tight. Run your fingers up the twist and any split ends will pop out of the twist. Then with a lighter quickly run a flame along the shaft. It will only burn the split ends because there is no oxygen in the twist. This leaves the ends of the hair smooth and sealed. You will also find split ends less often.
When twisting only twist the length you can twist very tight, ie a foot. Then work your way along the section of hair. Much more effective than your scissor method.
This is something interesting but is it safe?
Yes. I have done this for many lovely ladies (and a few gents) over the last 45 years.
Total hair success! Thank you for educating and inspiring long hair. Good luck with your studies too. 💖💖
Thank you very much I really appreciate your kind words!🥰❤️
Lots of great advice! I'd add: wide headbands and bun forks can be jazzed up with flowers, lace etc to channel that excitement and interest in your hair, and make styles look special.
The braid is so shiny!
I soooooo agree with you that “your scalp will produce the best oil for your hair”! I call sebum “Mother Nature’s hair oil”, so I do sebum distribution da with a Mason Pierson day 3 to wash day, which is every 7-10 days. It helps clean the scalp and brings the sebum down to the mids-ends, and stimulates the scalp. 😊
You’re a good speaker. Enjoyed your video and your hair is beautiful ❤
referencing the hairwashing: I've made the experience, that it is easier to expand the time between washes if your hair is long. The oils will be absorbed by the hairlengths and you can help the process with a brush with boar bristles.
using wooden combs and boar bristle brushes will help distribute oil and clean the hair better than using a dry shampoo. I would use dry shampoo in a pinch (you can make your own with cornstarch) but if you know how to comb your hair properly you can get rid of the oil without washing or using any product to soak it up.
Also, just wanted to say that knowing your porosity is important to know what kind of oils you should be using. I have low porosity hair and coconut oil destroys it. It's wayyyyy better for me to use thinner oils that can actually penetrate the hair shaft.
Hey there thanks for your honesty it took 10years foru to grow hair that long girl am proud of u social media. Is a liar.
Am here in September 2024. 12th to be exact
I loved your video I m try to grow my hair long I’m at just over shoulder length not can’t get it longer
My hair was long when I was 12 and when I was 20 amd I miss my long hair but its growing but its then.😢
Try using rice water mixed with aloe vera, and massage your scalp for 15-20 minutes, then roll your hair up and cover it with a cloth or turban. Wait for 2 hours then wash thoroughly with water. You can do it once a week or once every 2 weeks.
GENETICS!!!!!!
See Red Yao village, they use rice water to wash their hair and women there only cut their hair once at 17, and their hair doesn't come into contact with a razor for the rest of their lives.
A very sound approach. Get deinfluenced and live your life ❤
👇Swimmers who have to wash their hair everyday...
This is the one and ONLY hair video anyone needs!!!! I have thick knee length hair and I do everything in this video except the dry shampoo. I wear a lot of top knots too so the hair is resting directly on top of my head rather than pulling down on it. So Pay attention kids, 99% of the hair care/hair growth tricks videos you see out there are complete garbage! This is the way! The TRUE way to grow super long healthy hair. Don’t listen to those girls with shoulder length or waist length hair if you are going for longer! Listen to those who have the length you desire.
I love watching holistic habits! Her hair is fantastic and she doesn't use crazy products. I learned about apple cider vinegar rinses and oiling because of her.
the fact that it's not just long, but it looks healthy, strong and shiny too
Thank you so much(:
@@ZeldasLongHair hi

@@ZeldasLongHair I love you you are a great person I love learning about hair
As a black girl who has almost butt length hair, I agree with your points besides the dry shampoo. Simplicity from wash routine to products to braids is best for health and length 🍃.
Good hair care is universal in so many ways!
Who do you follow? What are your staple products

@@LongHairCarolynur right, we just need way more moisture and oil❤
What's your hair care regimen
The fact that your name is Zelda with this princess hair is amazing lol
Okay so… I’m Brazilian and I go to a church where women don't cut their hair, and we have a beautiful very very very long hair. So, im a person who have long hair and lives with other long hair girls.
Please don’t do it! Even girls who have their hairs dragging the floor don’t wash their hair every 2 weeks. It smells so bad and your hairs never beautiful because it’s always greasy. Don’t do it, it won’t grow your hair or make it beautiful/thick. wash your hair very little, as it causes many hair problems.
Listen to me, I used to do this and wash my hair once a week for a long time. It never worked and my hair was always greasy, oily and ugly, even though it was naturally dry (it was never naturally oily.
In my church the girls have beautiful thick hair and they wash their hair 1-3 times a week, never less or more.
Dry shampoo clogs hair follicles and causes long-term hair loss, don’t use it so much.
Of course Brazil is a hot and a tropical country, so we wash our hair more, but every 2 weeks it’s a bad frequency…
I will agree with you here, I did the "only wash once or twice a week" and I ended up with an itchy scalp and now I'm using prescription shampoo, I also got a sturn telling off by a dermatologist. While some people may benefit from infrequent hair washing most it won't do a lot of good. Zelda did state at the start of the video that not all her tips will be suitable for everyone but most ill agree with, for example having a balanced diet, not buying into fad social media "quick fixes"
Best advice I would advise anyone struggling to grow their hair is getting your blood work done and have a full M.O.T. Check your thyroid, your hormone levels. I did and found I was deficient in vitamin D and my thyroid needed medication
I’m confused because what’s the point of having long, beautiful hair if you don’t style it and show it off? I don’t want to have my hair in a braid for the rest of my life lok
Nobody asked you clicked on the video ok just becouse your hair is not healthy don't mean you have to be rude other people want healthy long hair like hers and think long hair is beautiful ok😁😊👍🌟👌
I was wondering the same thing. She may as well cut it off and donate it. She would look exactly the same if it was shoulder length in a braid.
@@Gggggg-h3phoney 😂 it’s a legitimate concern. If you are wearing your hair in a braid for the rest of your life, you might as well wear a fake braid. No one would see the difference. I'm not trying to be rude, it's just common sense. Usually people grow their hair to wear it down beautifully, not "forget about it"
@@AkilaDhelenthi I guess you are right about that I would hate having to do that
I agree, also: forget about the braids. I wore them for 2 months now my ends look like a broom. So much breakage and I didn’t even braid it tight.
I only use a good shampoo and conditioner...that's it. Besides using olive oil on my ends, my hair is down to my tailbone. I don't use heat, nor hair dryer, no dry shampoo ( that will clog your follicles) and I brush it every night with a wooden brush, them I put in braids. My hair is 2 c wavy, also I use hair sticks sometimes, no elastics. Olive oil has done wonders.
Try using leave in conditioner after towel drying on mids and ends, hair loses moisture after it dries and use very fine oil just on ends once a day to keep them smooth and hydrated.
Boar bristle brushes are also good for the hair. I use one in the morning to get lint or other stuff out of my hair, plus it distributes the oil already there to the rest of the hair. My cat likes to sleep around my head so yeah have to get it out somehow 😅
Also I protect my hair by braid or braids, mainly in a bun or wrapped around the head and covered with a scarf. I have seen results. It does help. My hair is below my tailbone. If anyone has questions about hair let me know! 😊❤
Bamboo combs also helps
I use wood comb for long time and boar bristles brush
I have curly hair so I can only use it when brush styling and on wet hair 😔
Awww you’re so beautiful!! I have 3c Afro texture curly hair. My hair length is at my butt at the moment . It took me 3 years starting at bra starp length to get there. My current goal is to get my hair to my knees. Next I want it to my ankles😂 we pretty much have the same hair care regimen thanks for the video ❤
thank you so much angel you are so kind!🙏 I am so impressed by your length with your 3c curls!!!! Amazing hair❤❤❤
Thank you for keeping it real! My hair is just above my butt but my goal is knee length. Definitely will save this for reminders ♥️
How long is it now your hair?
Butt length hair with knee length goal here too! Honestly the hardest part of this video is brushing it less often. The tangles for one, but I also just love the feeling of combing my hair until it's silky smooth, and it's very meditative for me. I currently comb it twice a day, but I guess I could go down to only once in the morning. I also feel like I don't have time to oil it as extensively in the morning as I do in the evening.
@@magiv4205 Totally feel that! I need to work on the less brushing as well. I also make sure to at least try to remember at night to apply oil. I do sometimes during the day/in the morning but depends the style. Your comment actually brought me back here, like a little reminder so thank you for that!!
I take pumpkin seed oil supplements for bladder pain syndrome because it's good for urinary support. But this is also good for hair growth especially hair loss.
I tried the tips from the blowout professor, and before I did, I couldn't go two days before my hair got oily, then when I tried his tips, I was able to go 3 days before washing. Now, when my day 3 hair wash comes up, i have noticed that my hair doesn't really need washed. I am definitely going to try to work up to the 2 week hair wash, may or may not work but if I can get more than 3-4 days before washing my hair, I will be very happy!!!! I have been growing my hair out for over 20 years, and because of medication and many surgeries, I have lost so much hair, even have patchy thin spots under my hair! And, it's barely to my waist! It's so depressing 😢, but I have been trying to stay positive and pray and be patient, with 2 of those being very hard to do 😂!
Not everyone can go 2 weeks without washing their hair, it depends on genetics and your environment. I have very fine curly/wavy hair and I live in a VERY hot and humid place so I can only go about 5 days without washing. It stays in the 90s-100s here and humidity is always 80%. I can't regulate my body temp so I am always sweaty. Sometimes I go a week without washing and I use a bit of cornstarch in between.
How's it going with your hair? Is it past your waist yet?
I also took tips from Blowout Professor and it was a game changer. My hair was always very hoarse and scratchy, oh go how a simple oil changed that and it doesn't tangle like crazy anymore 😀
I only wash my hair every two week. I have a different hair type, but she is correct. My hair doesn't produce oil like white people. I must add oil. My hair is growing a inch per month and it is down my weight. I use organic Ayurvedic haircare DIY I make at home.
I can’t believe it’s down to your knees now. That’s amazing. Glad to hear your voice too 😊
Thank you so much!!🥰👍 me too!
@@ZeldasLongHair it’ll be down to the floor before you know it 😳
Best hair growth video on TH-cam, hands down. And I've literally seen them all👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Now that sounds like a challenge 😂😂😂
I 💯 agree with everything but the brushing less, you in fact have only once a week. I use a bamboo brush on my mid thigh length hair every morning and evening. I don’t want tangles to form, I believe tangles cause damage.
I watched your whole.
😮😮😅 I was great ! I want to watch again soon! I also want to share something with you!
My husband was a Church of Christ Minister! He passed sway 2 days before Christmas 2023. I know he has gone to be with the Lord because we obeyed the Gospel! The I le says if we hear the word of God, believe it repent of our sins, confess that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God and live a Christian life; when we die we will have eternal life with God; our Heavenly Father!
I just learned that when your hair is wet, especially damp, your hair is 33% weaker and more prone to braking. Also, I learned to use a 100% boar bristle brush after detangling your hair with your fingers. To distribute the oils through your hair when you brush your hair. Plastic is not good for your hair, especially if it's wavy curly hair.
Except curly hair is more easily brushed when it’s wet
@@ari-jv true, but what's best for one's hair may not be good for another's hair, so we have to do what's best for our individual needs for our hair care.
the shine in your hair is crazy beautiful
Yess❤
Number 5 was actually a slap that I needed for me. I need to stop being so anxious and obsessed about my hair growth 😭😭😭
You have created the VERY BEST hair tutorial and I just learned so much from you, You explained everything I have been wondering about and now I so better understand what hair oils work best and how to use them. I've been overdoing it and actually causing more knots and tangles in my extremely long hair. At 72 years old, I'm proud that my hair is thick and has grown to my buttocks. I ignore all those who believe that once you reach a certain age you should cut all your hair off. That may be true if your hair is damaged, and doesn't look healthy. Sending you love and blessings. xoxo
Love your tips. I have ethnic curly wavy hair barely cut now to my lower back and I only wash and blow dry my hair once every two weeks too it is better. I also just leave it alone in braids 🤗💕
I had beautiful long hair for many years. I did exactly what this young lady did. Personally I felt what's the point of having long hair if I'm forever tying it up and getting constant headaches from the heaviness.
So I decided to shave the whole lot off and donate it to a children's cancer foundation. I've had short hair ever scince and still love it.
I felt so liberated lol.
I don't miss my long hair but it's still lovely to see on others ☺️🎉
Means so much seeing you happy with such a wonderful and giant braid, reaching such an amazing hairlength milestone. Please keep your pride in your gorgeous and amazing mane, it suits you so very much, and it is so unique and special because it is so extremely well-cared. Thank you for sharing, dear Zelda, and wishing you the very best for your studies 😘❤
Thank you so much for this video, just what I needed to watch! When I see some of these other channels where they put so many products in their hair it makes me cringe, so nice that you explained it well!😍
I follow pretty much all steps you mentioned I have super long hair my whole life and this is the best hair care advice Ive heard . I turned this in for my daughters to hear how to take care of their hair since they don’t listen to me😂
Congrats on your hair growth. It is so beautiful!
Your braid looks so shiny in this video. It looks amazing
Thank you very much!!😁😁🥰❤️
For the not brushing your hair hack I don't agree because you are going to have lots of nots and your hair is not going to grow
Hair doesn’t stop growing
I agree with you hair brushing massages and stimulates scalp for healthy hair production, helps distribute oils to lower ends if it's a boar's bristle brush the brush alone has improved the health of my hair and scalp. I brush out my hair every night with some rosemary and clove oil it's an aromatherapy bliss and quite relaxing way to end the night.
Then I braid it up and put on my satin bonnet helps maintain my braid and keeps hair hydrated and protected from breakage.
My hair started getting really long when I was pregnant with baby number 4 and simply did not have the energy/mental capacity to style or wash it often (once every week or so then put in a bun once fully dry)
Your honesty is refreshing. Thank you for your perspective!
This is THE most realistic, to the point video I've seen in a while 🎉 thank you
"Ask your doctor, commonsense And google" 😂LMAO Best responds ever!!!!!
I watched all the way to the end!! Excellent video and excellent advice for all hair types! I’m African American with Type 4 Afro hair. I do have a relaxer but get no more than 3 per year and I’m now trying for just twice per year! This advice is great for all hair types and textures and whether chemically treated or now! Mine is between my bra strap and waist! I only use heat when I do a relaxer…thus, 3 times per year!! I find that when I wear wigs my hair grows very fast!! I think because it’s protected and not touched or messed with! There’s a lot of us long hair girls wearing wigs out here for this reason! Gives hair a break and grows super fast!! Thank you for this awesome video!!
Well if you wear a lot of wigs then have you thought about being natural?
@@GadielVaStar I first went natural back in ‘98 and folks thought I had lost my mind! I chopped my hair down to a TWA. Since that time…..wow, 26 years ago, I’ve grown it out long and natural, chopped, relaxed, texlaxed, etc. I’ve done it all and my hair has been healthy and long both ways. I know everyone is getting relaxers now but I’ve never been one to follow the crowd. I’ve been on TH-cam loving the natural hair videos and reminiscing for my natural hair! I’m now 23 weeks post relaxer and going to keep on going and transition! I’ll be trimming about a half inch per month for a long time! I’ve never had the patience for this do this will be fomenting new and fun!!🤩 The key is even with a relaxer, never forcing our hair on a regular or even semi regular basis to do something it’s not meant to do! All that heat styling and tight super long braids just messes people’s hair and/or scalps up!! Just love it and lovingly care for it gently and it will grow in any state!! Hope this is helpful!
I wish I could only wash my hair once every 1-2 weeks but I don't think everyone can, I have Seborrheic dermatitis and I feel like it would go crazy.
My hair has always grown really fast and long and thick. I've been thinking about growing it as long as I can but I've heard it can cause hair loss on your hairline over time from the weight of it. Have you experienced that
Yes my mom has experienced that before. Once we cut dairy from her diet, it went away.
where can i find the oils you use?
Black woman think that they can't grow their hair long, but they can. Many of the tips she is giving can also work on dry hair. However, we must add natural oils to our hair.
Dry hair?
You made me laugh. I like your video and subscribe immediately. Lol. I’m black and have a long plat possible half your length, and I keep it in plats everyday. Lol. It’s 7+ years of growth
I’m not lazy, though. I love doing my hair everyday.😂 I don’t sleep on mine. I put it in a Hugh elastic band and a stocking every night. You gave great tips. 💕 And of course I watched to the end. Lol
9:09 ❤ur the truth sis from an African American.
I also never put heat on my hair. And keep my hair in a protective style.
For those that need dry shampoo but don’t want the chemicals of mainstream dry shampoo, you can make your own from either arrowroot powder or cornstarch mixed with cocoa powder, cinnamon, or nutmeg, or a mixture of the three to match your hair color so that it doesn’t look white on your hair if your hair is dark
Thank you!!
@@shea5542 of course no problem at all!
I’m allergic to dry shampoo so I’m doing this soon
@@fern7407 I hope it works for you!!
My girl does this. She has dark hair. It works perfectly. She has beautiful silly hair
Air drying hair is unrealistic in the winter. It's currently winter here in Australia and my hair takes at least half a day to dry without a hairdryer. And when you have to leave the house in the morning that's a no go. 🤔 I only air dry in warm weather. Currently it's 3C here. 🥶
I hate stinky sweaty hair. I live in florida not washing that much is going to be hard.
You could try swirling it in luke warm water between washes,making sure you include your scalp. Its surprising how much oil and sweat will come out,and freshen up your hair. You might even find your ends need a bit of oil added after it air dries.
Finally a video and a super interesting one😍🤩💁♀️
I missed you🤩
Here because the hair salon lady cut my hair really bad and I would never let anyone touch it again
The “Lazy way” makes it seem so doable lol. I love this! I’ve been “mostly” healthy with my hair but I do a heatless straightening routine because I find my curly hair very hard to manage and I lose a lot when detangling. I wear it mostly down. I think I’ll try braiding more instead. Thanks for the tips! Nice to hear tips that don’t involve a bunch of sponsored chemicals 😂❤
My Sister's Hair is Longer Then Ur Hair is All the way to Floor Ankle Hair Legnth it is So Beautiful to my sister always were her hair in a Hair BUN She Never Dyes her hair Either Just all natural Color
My great aunt had ankle length hair and wore it in a braided crown on top of her head. I've long been trying to get enough length to even do one full wrap around. It's such a a beautiful style I think.
so you are telling me that I have to stay in braids for life and never dare to change hairstyles everyday! thanks :(
I getchu! If I have super long, healthy, beautiful hair, I want it to be an outstanding feature! 😊. Braids ARE pretty, protective, and practical, but it's only ONE hairstyle out of a million. I totally agree with less washing; as hard as it is! Lol
Or just put it in braids at night when you go to bed, if you want to show off your beautiful hair during the day lol
I already said in the intro but again: Sorry this isn't hair ASMR like the rest of my channel, but because I'm currently studying abroad in Japan, I don't have my fancy recording to make a nice quality ASMR video. So instead I just decided to update my hair care tips and tricks from the last time I made a video on my main channel! But this is my last month in Japan, so next time I have a video on this channel, I should be back in America with my high quality equipment!
And sorry I keep looking off-screen to my notes every time before a clip cuts off. I am just a simple ooga booga amateur TH-camr who can't remember more than 2 sentences at a time :)

“Be lazy” yes!!! 😂 I’m glad long hair brings you joy as it does for me
You did a great job! Thanks for the video ❤
Most my life I had thick shoulder length hair that beauticians claimed simply would never grow beyond that point it was genetically programmed.
In 2014 my hair found itself suddenly and unexpectedly at my elbows. During this time circumstances beyond my control kept me from washing my hair daily. I was lucky if I got the opportunity to wash it twice a month. I started to realize most of what we've been taught about those who lived a few hundred years ago was crap info. It is quite possible to stay clean and have healthy hair with a lot less washing.
I use all natural oils on my skin and hair now and have stuck to 2-4 washes of hair in a month. Avocado oil is my go to for skin and hair it is antibacterial antimicrobial and antifungal one can use as a leave in conditioner, antibacterial soap, baby oil/lotion, foot rub and more.
I use a tad bit rosemary oil at night and some clove bud oil mostly for scent it also helps keep away lice and other bugs so I've read they used to use it for back in the day.
I also use a Boar bristle brush to help smooth hair and bring scalp oils down to the ends. It's a very relaxing part of my self care routine.
I often spritz my face and hair with rosewater it too is antibacterial antimicrobial antifungal cleanses & refreshes great stuff. Rose tea is also great for health and tasty. Occasionally I'll use Rose gold dry shampoo if I absolutely need a refresher.
In my experience natural products straight from Mother Nature is best. I even made a homemade deodorant from avocado oil and a few essential oils I like works better than anything I've bought in stores.
Now I often read up on how things were done in the past times and take some of their wisdom to heart. Back then it wasn't uncommon for women to have hip length or longer hair obviously they were doing something right and they didn't have the luxury of indoor plumbing.
Right now my hair is middle of back because I stupidly did an emotional cutting a few years back that I instantly regretted my hair was nearly at my hips at that point. Feel like I'm starting over at least I'm over halfwAy there now. Maybe one day I'll have as long as yours...if I can keep from cutting it.
Enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing with other young woman proper hair care without the gimmicks.
Big point I agree on is vitamins and minerals preferably from eating real nutritious foods especially nuts every other day pistachios are a great multivitamin when used in moderation. It's another reason I use avocado oil it's packed with nutrients some of which can actually penetrate the skin and be used to nourish skin/hair (like zinc and vitamin E) do a nightly foot rub and it will help keep feet healthy and toenails healthy as well.
Thank you for sharing. ✨I have fine Afro cottony hair and I watched it all the way through. It has been a relief to be able to just forget about my hair. It delicate and doesn’t like to handled a lot. I stopped combing it years ago, so it is loc’d. This has been a relief of so much stress from trying to make my hair texture behave differently than its characteristics. 🌻✨
I have like the thickest ankle length hair. I wish I can cure the frizziness
Everything she says in this video is what I learned through RESEARCH!!! I consume protein as well as do protein treatments because your body needs supplements to produce length and quality hair.
I tried training my hair for months to not wash it, and no matter what I did I was super greasy by day 3. And I even double shampooed. I think you should wash as often as you need when it starts feeling dirty
That happened because you don't oil your hair, do you
I lost a lot of hair because of stress due to the education system, I was so stressed before going to school that my hair was falling by handfuls. A lot of neurodivergent people have to deal with a lot of stress due to being unable to conform, my hair was always a way of measuring my mental health… this helps a lot especially the advice about just leaving it alone
I love the wet brush 😂❤❤❤
ᵗʰᵃᵗ ⁱˢ ˢᵒ ᶜᵒᵒˡ ᵗʰᵃᵗ ʸᵒᵘ ᵃʳᵉ ⁱⁿ ʲᵃᵖᵃⁿ 💕
I watched it through ❤❤❤
Off topic: but your voice is so relaxing. I can hear you all day
I can't go more than a week without washing, my hair gets really greasy and heavy and will itch like mad so i wash about 1 to maybe 3x a week if i remember to, however i am very cautious about what shampoo and conditioner I use
Oh I love these tips, especially the one on how to detangle knots. I always have lots of knots, I get so impatient trying to pull the hair out of them.
On another hair blog I learned the following: finger detangle first, broad toothed comb second then finer toothed comb last. Done twice daily and using protective hairstyles, such as braids and buns. No heat. Protect hair at night will cause less tangles. Scalp massage with argan or jojoba oil with essential oils the night before.
I use baking soda water to shampoo when I finally clean my hair/scalp with ACV to rinse and close cuticles and air dry. No heat.
As far as washing my hair goes, I'm trying to go the other way. I washed my hair in March and before that I hadn't washed my hair for 3 or 4 years. After I washed my hair in March, I haven't washed it since. I've been trying to get on a 2-week wash schedule. I have below the ear 4C hair type.
I have butt-length hair that I grew for 3 years. Still coming here for more tips and advice.
If you need to touch your hair it’s best to be in a good mood or a good frame of mind. Basically what you said with putting your hair aside for another time if you’re in a rush also if you’re in a terrible mood.
I agree with all techniques I will also add stop using conditioners with silicones and replace shampoo with something more natural like apple cider vinegar or ghassoul clay.
Dry shampoo store bought isn't great other as it contains silicone get corn starch or ground fenugreek or amla powder, or if you dark mix half and half corn starch with Coco powder put it in icing sugar shaker and vuala you have abandoned of dry shampoo at your finger tips.
From kitchen ingredients please avoid using baking soda too often it's drying too much.
Great healthy hair tips👍very similar to what I do😄and its worked! Your hair is beautiful and I love your hair tip video❤
It's not a critic of any sorts, these tips work for you and can work for other people I'm sure. I was also saying in the past "our ancestors did it like this, like that, they certainly couldn't do this or that." But who said our ancestors had beautiful hair???? 😂 They probably did not at all. They maybe had long hair but they were maybe not shiny and probably oily. On old paintings they usually look frizzy and dry... I don't think it's a good argument. I don't think we have actual information about our ancestors' hair health
Help, I go to the pool 3 times a week for my practice sessions what should I do?😭 if i dont wash my hair after every session my hair is gonna fqll out because of chloride...
I have one of the worst hair type unfortunately. Fine, dry brittle. I would never dare trying to brush my hair while dry unless it was straightened. I can only style my frizz ball if wet. I use a heavy duty gel to keep the frizz out. I do all the bad things for my hair type beciase of my hair type. Now I been getting a lot of hair loss I'm in my mid 30s. So if I just wet my hair will that still keep some of the oil in. I wish I had nice hair
I have extremely thick, shiny, long hair past my butt, I’m a 30 yr old white girl and I wash my hair every other day with head and shoulders lol!!! It’s crazy how different we all are ! I also stay away from all dye and heat products ❤
I know this was a while ago, but would it be fine to do like hairstyles? Like ponytails, braids, buns, ect, for like school?
thank you so much!! i watched so many videos about hair growth and they all told me to buy expensive hair products and I'm so broke!! so you really helped me!!
It’s genetics!!
Red Onion juice fresh with 3 minced garlic apply it twice a week and every time make new one m, and the left over throw it out
That’s the only toner that was able to grow hair in my bald spots!
I feel like the only person in the world who’s hair and ends looks and feels better when I wash everyday 😭 I’ve been doing a year of once to twice a week washing and my hair has never been so hideous…. (I have hip length and trim a few times a year) but my hair is also extremely thick and curly so…. Maybe it needs the conditioner and water 🤷♀️
Thank you!!! FINALLY somebody else who only washes their hair every two weeks. I have thick, coarse, curly hair and it’s very different from yours but I also wash my hair once every two weeks.
Love your information. You are so sweet and appreciated. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ❤ SUBSCRIBED.
If you don't want to use dry shampoo then get a boar bristles brush instead and clean the bristles with white vinegar extra striegth after each time you use it.
Great advice, plain and simply ❤...of course I watched 'til the end...

The idea to cut only the damaged hairs is really good - it's the first time I've ever heard about it even though it makes totally sense! As dry shampoo it is way better to go for corn starch, flour, clay powder and things alike than to use those chemical products.
NEVER EVER USE ANY PLASTIC BRUSH OR COMBS PLEASE WET BRUSH PULLS HAIRS USE WIDE TOOTH COMBS AND NATURAL BOAR BRISTLE BRUSH . YOU WILL THANK ME TRUST ME
It's true! My former Nurse Hairdresser said the same and I wash my hair maybe twice a week (it gets really oily by 3 days.). She said I've got the healthiest hair she's ever seen. She said products are B.S., the only "product" you need, is built in already!
Dont change your diet, take vitamin supplements its the worst advice xD
Your voice is quite soothing.
