A lot of natural hair brands have finessed people into thinking they need 5 thousand products to do their hair like detanglers, curl milks, curl smoothies, curling cream dry etc when in reality you don't need all that stuff at all
Exactly!!!
What do we need?
@@Faith-zv8ik shampoo,conditioner, leave in conditioner

@@hmmmm2751 that’s pretty much all I put in my hair with oil and my hair is flourishing
You may think you look “dusty” but those twists are so beautiful omg I wish my twists would look like that my hair would stay in that style!
🥲 thankssss
Me too
I had a serious problem with over trimming my hair. Then I realized that although my hair is thick, it’s fine, so some areas of my hair are see through. I kept on trimming my ends while asking myself “why isn’t my hair growing?” 🤦🏾♀️
Trimming is a blessing just as much as it’s a curse 😭
Same here sis!
my literal problem lool
Omg yes hair looks transparent sometimes and I be clicking every month and I wonder why my hair won’t grow past my shoulders 😭
For me personally washing my hair constantly every four days makes my hair grow so fast, I can’t wait and wash it after a month😭my scalp itches so bad and i get really bad dandruff but washing my hair at least once a week has improved my hair health my hair loves when I consistently give it attention, with that being said I feel like everyone hair is different and you should just figure out what works for you
forreaaalll! i see hella growth after washing protective styles/ my natural hair every 4 weeks. i get way less shedding after braid takedown too
Product junkie, over manipulation, no manipulation, over trimming….lol. Everything the natural hair community told me to do had me doing too much to my hair or made me scared to touch it. Grease has been my saving grace. I shampoo, condition and deep condition about once a month. I keep my hair in flat twist or braids..remoisturizing twice a week. Once it close to wash day. My hair is so stretched and slick… I throw it up in a bun. I only trim when I feel my ends getting rough. I use kuza oil lotion or Aussie moist leave in then seal with kuza grease or palmers olive oil gel therapy grease. I’ve been stuck at mid back for a year….I’m glad to say making these changes I’m reaching waist length. Finger detangling has also helped with length retention.
I’m so happy to hear that!!!
@@NaturalAcademia thank you for showing us that a simple regimen is the best. We need to leave our hair alone and let it be.

When you say re-moisturise, do you take your twists out to re-moisturise?
@@OrangeMilkBlossom I was wondering the same thing. Hopefully not, that would be too much manipulation in my opinion. 🤷🤷
I was obsessed with oil too at one point. Now I just put grease/pomade in my scalp like I did when I was younger. I love it way better because my scalp actually stays soft, moisturized and it smells good .😊
Can never go wrong with a good grease
I’m glad somebody said it! I’m a lazy natural and I don’t do half of the things I see online. Whatever I’ve been doing this long has worked so why stop.
Another thing, some ppl don’t like their real hair texture so when they use a certain product and it doesn’t make their hair look like a different hair type they just go and buy a new one instead of accepting their hair for what it is and doing styles that work for their hair. Or they hate it while it’s short and shrunken so instead of waiting for it to grow they blow it out constantly and then develop heat damage which they refuse to cut off 🤦🏾♀️
This!
Yes with the hair texture changes!!!!!!!!! Like conditioner is not gonna make your hair 3b ….
I've been natural for close to 5 years and my hair is about 10-12 inches in length. I'm very guilty of most of the topics you mentioned. I have so much hair products that I purchased a book shelf to store them. When it comes to over manipulation, I'm definitely guilty - I would literally take my twist out mid week to re-moisturize, or re-do, or even to do a different hairstyle (I realized that I become bored very easily with hairstyles). In 2022, I'm committed to getting rid of half of those products, and incorporating more long lasting hairstyles so as to reduce the amount of times I touch my hair.
Thank you for your blunt videos
Since I’m 5 years in, I can say ladies, she is right on all of these things. I did all of them loll😂😂. Starting over soon!
Oh noooo 😭😭😭

Same here today was the day I started over
Why does your look so short in this picture then
@@trendyteenstiktok she said she did the same stuff and the video is about hair not growing
I began my hair journey by buying everything someone suggested on the internet. I also went crazy with oils & trimmed too much. Thankfully I’ve educated myself to just leave my hair alone & let it grow! 👍🏽
I love that for you!!
It's a good thing that you educated yourself. I had to do the same thing. I never trim my hair and it's growing like crazy. I will be 58 next month and my hair hasn't grown this much since I was a teenager. I use my daughter's products and one day I decided to make my own products. I'm not trying to advertise but we all can make our own hair products. Our hair needs to be moisturized. I don't wash my hair as much and NO it doesn't smell bad. We have to know our hair. It took me a long time to figure out my nature hair but I did.
I’m still trying to figure my natural hair out. I don’t know what kind of products my hair likes so I have an unnatural amount of products. My goal by 2024 is to be down to one of everything and try DIY’s here and there.
Yeah trimming does not make the hair grow faster it's for length retention getting rid of those split ends stops the hair from breaking off I personally trim my hair every 5-6 months I'm not a professional so I don't get all the split ends I just do a light trim enough to stop the hair from breaking off
As you should!!!
My mom’s hair goes to her hips and she just cares for her ends rather than trim them all the time. She’s told me that hair grows from the root and not the ends since I was a child, I was quite lucky haha. I’m sure this video will help a bunch of people because these tips really do help

Your dry humour takes me out 🤣😭😭 the fact you say funny things in a fully serious tone. Like about you thinking animals don't exist if you haven't seen them 🤣😭😭😭
🥲 thank you
One bad product can really set back your hair. I know what works for my hair, but sometimes I'll see something cheap and bring it home just to see how it compares to what I'm used to. Then I regret it. 😭
The thing that stunted my hair growth was leaving my hair out all the time. Since I was like 14-15 bc I'd started to wear my hair out in twist outs and braid outs I got addicted to it/loved it so much that I used to do it all the time then along with that leave my hair like that to go to sleep without remoisturising or reprotective styling and so slowly my hair broke off, more and more. Bc it was constantly always so dry from being out all the time so that's a tip for everyone if your hair is suffering with dryness consider whether you're wearing it out too much and whether if you do you're remoisturising after.
I don't so that anymore and wear my hair out once in a blue moon and it's flourished so much since then
A big example of your hairs not not growing it's just breaking off
I started using the Palmers Olive Oil growth therapy after I saw it on one of your videos. My hair is high porosity and I used to loose moisture very quickly. Since using the palmers I’ve noticed my hair retains moisture a lot better than before. I use it after the leave in as a sealant. My hair has also grown and is a lot easier to manage. So thank you so so much.
That grease is the bomb!!
I started using your moisturizing method 3 weeks ago and I'm amazed at how long my hair stays moisturized. I'm back to grease 🤪... I'm just using up my last bit of oils on my scalp and them I'm ditching them....I realize using more products is not always better....I'm 6 months into my hair journey from almost a bald headed big chop and I'm in love with the journey so far.
I’m so happy to hear that!!
My mistake is being a product junkie which also goes with allowing others to change my regimen. Thanks for always reminding me to keep it simple.
I'm not African American but listening to you and watching how much work you put on your hair only makes me appreciate it. I see African American women with different hair styles on their natural hair but I never understood how long it actually takes to fix it. My cousin has course hair and she takes hours as well. She won't wash it often since it takes a lot of time to work with. I have fine curly/wavy hair. I have experienced hate from African American women and I didn't understand why. I know hair is a big deal to the culture. I wasn't raised or taught how to take care of my hair. I always think to myself, why are you hating or jealous? You don't wake up in the morning with me to see what my hair looks like or the struggle I have to try to add volume to it so it looks like I actually have hair lol. I've learned to braid my hair which has helped me add volume to it. When I walk around with my hair braided I notice the attention I recieve which isn't always positive. But I always think to myself, God created the different texture hairs but we aren't taught how to take are if it. We are ALL beautiful but its up to us on the type of attitude we choose to take. Much love ♡♡♡
Oh yeah, I also discovered a lot of caucasian woman use wigs. So there's a lot I don't know about lol
Majority of white women use hair clips and wigs because they want volume.
Regardless all hair is beautiful.
I have thick curly hair and I NEVER was jealous of anyone hair. I am glad my hair is thick and healthy. People need to be more comfortable in there own skin.
Love the way God made you with his own hands. He made no mistakes with your hair texture or who you are as a person.
If anyone has a problem that is there own insecurity.
She is haitian but u get it
For me, I don't delay washing my hair because it takes a lot of time to work with it. I wash it when it needs it. My hair tends to need washing every 3 weeks, so that's when it gets done. It isn't 3 weeks because it takes so long to do and I'm avoiding work though. In between washes, I remoisturize weekly (contrary to the video, that works for me, my hair needs it lol), which takes hours. And you just saw Natural Academia spend how many hours braiding her hair. We spend a lotta time in hair. Not washing daily isn't because it's a lot of work. Often it's because it's manipulation that isn't needed and it is a stripping, stressful process to the hair, so it's done when needed.
Everyone washes their hair *when they need it*. Do you wash yours hourly? Of course not. Would I say you don't wash yours hourly because it's too much work, or because that isn't needed? I don't mean to be harsh. But I would like people to be considerate of what standards they apply to others.
Also, I'm sure no malice was intended, but I don't "fix" my hair. There's nothing wrong with it. 👍🏿 😊
@@Doc_McStuffins The term "Fix hair" is not saying something is wrong with the hair but I understand literal word interpretation. I wrote my message in a rush and I kept having typos but when I said "fix,"I meant it as styling the hair. :)
I’m “newly natural” (almost two years in) but I still haven’t found products that give me the results that I want and need. I’d been taking it slow trying things out until this Black Friday when I finally had the funds to try many brands out. I’ve definitely fallen into the product junkie hole but I also really want to find what works for me so that I can finally chill with moisturized and happy hair.
I definitely understand where you’re going though about the product junkies thing. I’ve seen influencers that bought 5 of the same product having never tried it before just in case they do end up liking it. I’ve never understood it. Also buying things that you don’t really need or use often. Like buying rinse out conditioners when they’ve never been part of your routine. I’ve made it a point to be selective even though I’m getting a lot just to avoid this.
I feel like we all went through that coconut oil phase 😭 I remember when I went out specially and bought it when I wanted to try start doing my hair when I was younger bc of natural hair youtube and it was so shit for me. It left my hair so dry and disgusting. Obviously I realise now coconut oil is as sealent but I still wouldn't use it
😭😭😭
It broke my hair off and irritated my scalp, which became red and prickly. Never again. Grease never bothers my hair. When I was 9 I was hospitalized for months. My hair was placed in two braids and it grew really long because it had to be left alone. Then when I got home I used Murrays, vaseline and olive oil and it continued to grow. Simple products. Then I started believing all the hype and wasting money on ton of products. Keep it simple.
I don't like coconut oil on my gair
I’m high porosity and my hair loves TGIN moisture cream 🤩
Same!!
Beautiful and honest. I love the information you provided.
You made my natural process way easier 😌 bless your heart
Definitely been doing most of these I really just hit a dull spot in the last two years but your videos definitely help
Love the content! Thanks for the video. One Love💕
This is my theory for natural hair about trimming.
Stylist straighten our hair to get a similar fine texture for length reasons which is okay.
But, when they are reviewing our ends they are going off of a straight hair texture.
Our hair doesn’t look the same so our ends aren’t going to look the same.
My theory is we should consider a different method to go off of.
We shouldn’t have so much cutting done because they are going off of a straight texture method.
I hope how I’m writing this it’s making sense.
🤷🏽♀️ I asked my ancestors for guidance and this came in my head.
Trimming/ a light dusting is needed…But, I don’t think as frequently and I don’t think that much should be taken off especially if you are taking care of your hair.
Great video ❤️.
I agre, don't know if the method "search and cut" like they do on the Deva's salon is still/a thing, literally "like the name". And you don't need to straightenning the hair !!
Plus, 🤔 I'm thinking, people with curly hair don't straightenning their hair for trimming?
Just black people doing that or ??
You should trim your hair the way you wear it. If you wear a lot of blow outs from your hair that way. If you wear a lot of wash and gos trim it that way. The way you cut your hair curly is very different from how you cut it straight. But with that being said it doesn’t mean we don’t need to trim our hair as much. Some who over manipulate their hair need there curls cut more than someone who doesn’t
I started trimming my hair myself because I don’t straighten it and the stylist always acted like my hair had to be bone straight to do a trim. I have had my hair straightened in years.
I really really needed this video. I was really feeling down about my hair journey. Instagram, TH-cam you name it, has gurus and paid models making you feel like if you don’t use the products they use you will never achieve long healthy hair. Even the women who have long hair and start their own brand ( while I don’t have a problem with this.) I have problem with what they a promoting. And the whole trimming thing I think is sham to keep us with no length. All the women I know will extremely long hair only cut their hair when it NEEDS it . The end of your hair are the oldest part so of course they will look old and less Fresh as the rest of the hair. Split end yes cut.
Thank you for posting this , I feel like I’m getting back on track
The beads and brails look sensational and the tips were right on point. Thank you. Also thank you for not braiding your hair to the ends, I've been doing it lately and it has knotted my ends, which cause them to brake off. Sometimes we need a reminder. I'm back to twisting my ends.
Omg a new video from you! Let's gooo!!!!!
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much, I am on a journey of regrouping my hair. I cut all my hair off last year and started fresh, but I fond that each time, I keep trying different product, trim and so forth. That's makes a lot of difference because over the past 20 years I have been struggling with my hair. My hair currently is breaking and splitting and I was becoming so discourage recently, so seeing your video has encouraged me a lot.
I love how naturally funny you are. You're very smart too. You don't allow others to dictate who you are or who you want to be.
Thanx so much .....I always lookup to ur videos 4 help❤ really grateful
Omg I love the braids 💝So so nice
Thanks for the super cute style I have got to try it!🥰 it looks great on you. I totally agree with your points when I started my journey I ran out and got coconut oil then I got the next hot topic and it wasn’t until I started watching your videos that I stopped and said you know what let me do what works for me and start simple. I cannot use grease on my hair it makes it very stiff so I stopped using it however I do love the TGI end that I got as a tip from you! Xoxo 😘
I agree with everything you said. My hair hates creams, lotions, and gels but I experimented for years before I found out what my hair thrives on, which is all natural ingredients, light oils, and nothing on my scalp.
Omg yes!!! if I leave my scalp alone it grows soo fast - I only use a rosemary and hylaronic acid serum on my scalp after workouts to avoid the sweat itching
Those large 8 twists look beautiful on you! They frame your face so well. You should rock them more often.
Thanks for making this video I needed to hear this
😊
Great straight forward and relatable video.
Thank you!!
I was literally just watching you earlier and then you post, I love your videos smmmm
😭 why thank you!!
@@NaturalAcademia ofc and thank you for your informative videos 😭😭 they help so much

U are so real,so really truthful.
So intelligent for your age.
Really appreciate the video.
Still in the hair growth journey myself and definitely not in a hurry!
Thank you, thank you. I hope all goes well with your journey!
This is great and I love your videos your my inspiration for natural hair .❤❤❤❤
😭 I feel honored lol thank you
yes for the lazy natural! I don't touch it, I don't bother it, I stick to the same products keep it simple, put it in 6 plaits most of the time and if I wanna do something fancy I just put it in two buns hahaha and braids most of the time
I trim annually but when I was relaxed,I suffered with split ends, so happy I'm natural, a little more work but it's worth it 😍
Beautiful results!!
THESE BRAIDS IN THE HAIR STAYED JEWEL MERRY CHRISTMAS. NATURAL ACADEMY HAPPY HOLIDAYS....
Same to you!!
I would love to see that additional content from you! Workout, food, day in the life, whatever.
Noted!!
Ditto!
🙌🏽Love this video! In my first few years of going natural I saw almost no growth. At that time, I was using every product known to man including buying everybody's useless, overpriced drops and oils.🙄 In the last 2 years, the pandemic and working from home has resulted in my doing protective styles and literally keeping my hands out my head. During this period, my hair has grown down my back and it's the longest it has ever been. I have washed it less, manipulated it less, cut it less, and put very little heat on it. I am also working down my huge stash of unnecessary hair products (gave most away). Just to think... at one point, I even considered putting groceries in my head (mayo, eggs, yogurt, aloe, etc etc). Luckily I didn't go that far.😳 I choose to eat the groceries and let nature take care of my hair.
Girlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll, you are soooo right on all those things you said. I am guilty of them all and the result is, 7 years of natural hair and collarbone length. But this year 2023, i am doing things differently and listen to my hair. No more to jumping the band wagon .
Hey natural academia, I'm sure we'll love it if you did another video on how you style your hair/ hairstyles for 4c hair especially since you're in uni 🥺💗
Noted!!
Girl your videos are probably the reason why im giving this natural hair thing another try ❤❤
So much love to you from South Africa 🇿🇦
Your method of protective hairstyles have helped my hair grow and and am thankful...my hair loves being untouched do I style and leave it alone for at least 3 weeks
My hair wasn't growing because I was cutting 5cm every 6 months 😅 my ends weren't even damaged but my hairdresser said that I should cut every 4 Months lol.... I basically lost 20cm of hair in this 2 years!!! I am so sad because I want long hair but we learn with mistakes!
Hair dressers are suspect! I don’t like new school hair dressers.
^^^^^
@@bharris4517 I won't listen to them again!
I'm not gonna lie, I've only recently became something like a product junkie despite being natural all my life and always sticking to the same product; only changing when I think a certain product doesn't work on my hair anymore.
I don't over manipulate -- I touch it when it needs be styled and I always opt for products that are best for my hair health. However, since I got a job (I'm a teen lol) and and my hair has gotten closer to my goal length, I just been so interested in buying more stuff ad having a collection of hair products! I wouldn't call myself a junkie -- I don't buy new hair products just because they're trending or for the sake of it, but I can understand why people are fr!
Trick to laying your hair with less tension: do it in sections. One tends to pull on it less if one isn’t trying to get all the hairs in one bun at a go. Since i have been doing my buns in sections my hair has been happier for it.
Love watching your videos
Thank you!!! I really appreciate you for your support ❤️❤️
Thanks young & wise Queen😍
Your hair is fire!!
Those twists❤️❤️❤️.
🥲❤️
I normally stay with my hair for two months without manipulation and its works 😅I normally have a protective style
Girl we need to go back to regular hair grease and water like our parents used when we was kids along with braids💖💖💖💖
LMFAOOO man the lint clip you’re so funny dude and your lips are beautiful 🥺
Lmaoo thanks for making it that far into the video 😭😭 thank you!
Awesome Advice!!!
Try the As I Am leave in conditioner. It may help with shrinking but still provide slip and moisture.
I've been watching your videos for a while and I love them but now I'm conflicted💔
My hair is finally getting long and you're an example of what my hair could be like but at the same time I really want to cut it...
I'll definitely continue watching regardless though
Thank you and if you want to cut your hair, that’s okay, it’ll grow back
Video was spot on
Some hair take ten yrs to grow longer, some take 5yrs ,some take a month or a week is just there genes..
Hello, I'm early today! :D
❤️❤️❤️
I agree not every product is for everyone. I know from experience that olive oil does good for my hair. That is for sure part of my hair regimen.I love products but i use mostly natural stuff.
Great vid!
Nice video, lovely hair
Thanks dear, this video has given me a warm up and reduce on the worry i had of recent after the severe hair loss have suffered since i unplaited four days back.
Would you have any idea on how i can best maintain it and reduce breakage???
I love your hair. I'm so happy my daughter has always liked her natural hair. The people around you I believe 100% help it. My daughter likes twists or her afro, and I'm so happy about it. I've tried beads she just doesn't like it and I'm not making her do anything. Do you find it uncomfortable to sleep? That was her complaint.
Very True! I started becoming bald using too much Got2b glued to lay down my edges. I now use hair wax for low manipulation and when I want strong hold I'd just use Got2bglued but overall I use oils everyday and lay my edges less.
Oils? That’s so cool, I’ve never heard of laying down edges with oils before
@@NaturalAcademia 😂 nahh I use oils when I'm not laying my edges with edge control to boost blood circulation.
@@NaturalAcademia 😅 Me, I do it with oils sometime
You can use Shea moisture Jamaican black castor oil lotion styling product it keeps the hair stretched and defined. Moisture also
I've left my hair alone ALL DAMM YEAR and my shit STILL doesn't grow pass my damn neck! At this point am convinced that my hair isn't suppose to be long! We need to honest more often on YT to people because not all of us can grow long hair no matter what we do!
Ouch
you stil have to wet it and seal it often. try mini braids you can wet seal wash condition etc in the braids
@@AP-kf3xs I do that and I tried mini braids. Those made my hair fall out. Anything with added hair or even my own hair makes hair fall out. I
@@tatianaragland4007 You need to see a Doctor. It could be internal.
Some people just can’t grow long hair and thats fine! Stop making your goal length and make your goal maximum hair health. Sometimes we make the mistake of focusing on length so much that we don’t pay attention to the true needs of our hair! I did a big chop recently to get rid of all my straight trained hair after months of my mom telling me not to and to just let it grow out for the length and I regret nth. Length isn’t everything, its better to have thick healthy hair than long thin brittle hair.
I love love love your tips. And I’ve pretty much binged all of your videos lol…but sidenote, and it may seem weird, but you have some very pretty ears lol. I know that’s random, you’re beautiful anyway, but I just noticed how pretty your ears are. Sorry if it sounds odd 😅
Sis thank you for the video I only use 4 products at the moment like hair products are expensive like sis I use everything I don’t waste any products.thank you ❤️
As you should!!!!
@@NaturalAcademia facts they be charging tooo much and the product lines are crazy 🤦♀️
San Diego zoo... It Nairobi, Kenya in Africa.. Elephants definitely exist as well as camels.. Lol..I pray you get a chance, because elephants are majestically beautiful!!
I had to learn the hard way about breakage. I wore my hair in puffs for the last few years, and my edges are gone. I’ve been doing mini twist and using castor oil.😂

@Kdloves.24 Omg 😭
The way you are laughing at your self I can tell you’re funny.
Thinking out loud
My biggest hardship is figuring out how to take care of my natural hair while wearing hijab 🧕🏾 and consistently making ghusl(ablution) everyday so my hair is always wet.
Hey girl Muslim girl here . You can lightly run water through your hair use a towel to dab out excess.
@@arewahaircaretv8718 what styles do you do ? What products ? What’s your routine ? Any other tips ? I’m over manipulating and minimizing a styles lasting power by getting a style wet such as mini braids cornrows twist outs, blow outs, straightening.and I’m someone who enjoys doing my hair and having it done. So I’m easily overwhelmed by the fact that the running water over my hair messes up the hairstyle. However im not complaining about making ghusl, as it’s necessary and prayer is a priority. I just have no examples on how to take care of it🥺
@@Susulove97 I personally do a lot of mini braids and twists 1-2 months (lazy natural).I also do threading occasionally. I use grease because it slows the shrinking. I do blowout when I'm not praying or to trim. Also I highly recommend you use silk scarf under your hijab it made a big difference in making my style last.
Also the water should touch ur scalp majority of the time n not so much the hair.
@@arewahaircaretv8718 I will definitely be trying the silk underneath the scarf and threading !! How many times do you re moisturize ?
I have a bunch of mielle organics products I need to give to somebody cause my 4c hair said aht! aht!😒🤦🏾♀️
Lmaooo 😭😭 I hope you find someone to give it to
Wow! You're one of the very few type 4 naturals that have attested to the Mielle products not being for them.
I bought the Hawaiian Ginger leave-in conditioner two months ago and it's not been working for me. My hair felt super dry and frizzy on washday even after I sealed with an oil. I've gone back to using my Lottabody Style milk and Sealing with Shea butter or Argan oil🥰
Yaaaayyyy a new video 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🎊🎊🎊🎊
❤️❤️❤️
Slayed edges are overrated! I can’t with the edge thing still!!!
when I was like 11-12 I would wash my hair on a Sunday and slick it that night and then wear it for Monday and Tuesday and wash my hair Tuesday night and SLICK IT AGAIN and then wear it Wednesday and Thursday then wash and slick it blah blah and then Friday and Saturday then the whole cycle starts again🥲 when I tell u my hair was so thin and weak..never again
If being a product junkie is becoming a financial issue for you, be encouraged to return them! I don’t have the kind of hair that responds well to just any ole bottle of something or no product at all, so I have to try things out until I find something that works. This, of course, adds up on my pockets. I don’t limit myself on how many new products I can try in a given timeframe, but I do have a two-try rule with myself-if I try a new product and it’s horrible, I have to return it within the week; if the product is ‘meh’, I give myself one more chance to try it, but the second try must be on the very next wash day. If it still sucks on the second try, I must return it within the week. I know some people feel embarrassed to return anything, but I was raised by my country grandma who would return a $0.89 bottle of TABLE SALT if she didn’t like it😆 I’m not that bad, especially not with small businesses, but I’m not shy about confirming a retailer’s return policy upfront and holding them to their word. In the words of Cookie Lion, “I gotta put me first!”
OMG THANKS SO MUCH YOU ARE THE BEST I LEARNED ALOT THROUGH YOUR VIDEO, SO SHOULD I DO JUST ONE STYLE IN MY HAIR, I DO, DO ALOT OF DIFFERENT STYLES YEEEEEES I DID THE SAMETHING WHEN I FIRST STARTED, I USE CREME OF NATURE PRODUCTS IS THAT OK, I DIDN'T KNOW WHY MY HAIR TAKING FOREVER TO GROW BACK, MY HAIR IS NOT QUITE AS LONG AS YOURS BUT LONG I STOPPED WATCHING THE VIDEO TO COMMENT BECAUSE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS SO ME WITH SOME OF IT NOT ALL THO, WOW THIS IS DO HELPFUL TO ME THANKS SO MUCH I'M DEFINITELY WILL BE FOLLOWING YOU
when I do mini twists or braids, I leave out my edges because it gets too tight around those areas. It still looks the same but without the tension
The product junkie mode sucks…I was determined to find the PERFECT combination to help my kids’ hair look/grow the best…I started that about 3 years ago-it lasted about a year! Some of the products we STILL haven’t gotten to and many are even expiring. And there were too many variables in my hair equation-wasted my time and money!!It’s stupid. Set limits for yourself.
After I got saved and started getting a stronger relationship with God. Everything got and is getting better, my attitude, my relationships with people and my life. So here: Romans 10:9-11 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. John 3:16(KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Amen!
this style is so beautiful!!!! do you use rubber bands/elastics when you are putting your beads on?
I validate all those points. I became a product junkie and I really regret it! However I can’t buy anything until I run out of products!!! What do you think about curl activator gels that give great moisture to the hair?
I’m not opposed to them, I just don’t use them personally. I hear great things about curl activators though
@@NaturalAcademia Thank you for your answer girlfriend. I use curl activators like “world of curls” super moisturizing stuff and it helps keep my hair moisturized under my hair grease. I don’t use them for curls since I don’t have an obvious curl pattern.
Mini braid take down video us please 🙏🏾
Lmaooo will do 😭
I'm experiencing so much breakage 😕 rn that I feel like cutting my hair cuz I just don't understand it anymore
My self esteem would be much better if I had only half the length of your hair😍
I love it!!!great job
I trim once a year. That's it.
I like to buy the sample product before I buy the big jar. That has helped my product junkieism.
