- Hey!!
Can I be honest with y’all? Judgement free (lol). I’m so over my natural hair at the moment. I had copper hair then dyed it jet black because the copper was soo high maintenance, and my hair just kept breaking off. I really want big chop and start over new. Do you guys have any products suggestions for color damaged hair? Anywho, thank you for letting me vent and I’ll see you in the next video 🙂

❤❤❤❤thank you everyone for the suggestions I really appreciate it. I’m going to play around with Aussie, K18, and Olaplex😊 and see how my hair feels
Careful with olaplex...never used it but heard that it's caused hair loss in some ppl. I would stick to your tried and true. And avoid protein treatments until your hair softens/put in a protective style (without false hair) and use grease.
Try using one oroduct for two months and then u can switch. But using several products at once u would not know whats working . For me i am an aussie moist fan. Been using it for over one year.
Blue magic is the bomb!
Use the curl smith bond rehab salve every other week.
Baby, "TGIN" is where it is at! It really works. I love it. Great for moisture and protein balance. Try the line's moisture shampoo, protein conditioner, and moisturizing conditioner. Don't forget the leave in conditioner.
It’s the products you’re using. You don’t have to cut your hair off, just need to find the right products. Try Camille Rose, also Aussie was drying my hair out.
Exactly. And I couldn’t agree more with you.
I normally use Cantu living-conditioner but since I ran out of it and couldn’t find it anymore in my country, I started using a different living-conditioner that left my hair brittle and causing more nots, for weeks I couldn’t understand what was going on until I changed brands again
Same. African Pride used to dry out my hair. And if she is using color, that dries hair as well.
I started using TGIN and grapeseed oil and that really worked for me.
I know some ppl can get away with not conditioning their hair after shampooing but conditioning and deep conditioning always worked for me for moisture retention
Aussie ruined my hair once I stopped using it my hair finally stopped breaking off. It is one of the many hair products that contain formaldehyde.
@@kstar5398 That's interesting because I know a lot of naturals that swears by Aussie. I don't know why because to me it's not a black product from what I'm aware of.
Bond salve, olaplex, a very good hair mask will help alot.
Don't be afraid to let go of dead hair. Your hair will thank you. You did the right thing. I'm sure you're hair feels so much better already. ❤😊
But her hair wasn’t dead it needed a bounce back. It’s the products she was using but it will grow back much thicker and fuller.
@@Sunny-tc3ulyou have to consider porosity, medications, diet , hormones environmental factors etc. Sometimes lightener damages the hair shaft over time with these changes.
Your hair really looks healthy, I love it. Diet and supplements plays a role in how well your hair does. I wouldn’t have cut it because it did not look dead to me, but you know your hair best. I’m here with you for this journey.
@Stormyfoureleven3187 Yeah she said it was breaking off...but idk...cause hair sheds naturally...so idk
All hair is dead
Being a cosmetologist...bleach/color is cryptonite to our hair. Yes, certain products do help (reconstructors, Ion is my preference, deep conditions i use a bunch of conditioners mixed plus cholesterol. Protein treatments as needed), but if its over processed, most likely, you're going to end up cutting it. That should be discussed if you're going to the salon. Glad you're not afraid to cut and start over b/c yes, it is a pain. That's why I stopped coloring. Yes, i love change, but color scares me to keep starting over. I break off in the crown of the head every time. You're lucky for it just being your ends. You have thick and beautiful hair! Keep loving on it💚
Cholesterol is a best kept secret these days. It was very popular among black hairstylist in the 70s and 80s and it always grew my hair. It is a great conditioner even with color.
@@glw5166enserio? Es un acondicionador que da cplor añ pelo t aporta hidratación profunda al peop de porosidad alta?
@@ruthestherrosariopaulino2446 No it does not add any color to hair. My last comment might sound confusing but what I meant to say is that Cholesterol is a deep conditioner that can be used on hair that has been colored. Look up Wella Chloesterol brand or Queen Helene Cholesterol. Those are two good brands.
@@glw5166cholesterol is great for helping you hang on to the hair a bit longer, but you’ll end up getting rid of it eventually. It’s just a question of earlier or later.
@@trianna2008 Getting rid of what? The cholesterol? I'm in my late 50s now and I have been using cholesterol for hair treatments since I was in my teens. I still have a full healthy head of hair although it's turning grey. The main thing for me is that it's healthy and a good length and I think using cholesterol every now and then with a heat cap as part of my overall hair routine has helped my hair. The only thing that has ever really damaged my hair is a stressful job. Once I quit that job, my hair grew like a weed. Stress is more damaging to the body and hair than any product.
You are blessed to have your thick and beautiful hair
Yes she is! And she’s beautiful too!
@@michelemcmillan904 Exactly
She really is blessed to have such lovely hair ❤
Hate is a strong word 😮
but she having problems this isnt advice
I get that cutting your hair or doing the “big chop” is a quick route but you can revive your hair & bring it back to life, I’ve done it plenty of times. Try protein treatments, other deep conditioner masks, co washes etc.
It's not really quick cause now she's gotta grow the hair back. Also you can't revive damaged hair, you can only mask the damage, cutting off the most damaged parts will help make the hair much healthier and prevent more breakage in this case
I've never seen dead or severely damaged coils revived. Manipulated to appear fine in a straightened state, yes but revived no. I need to see this
It’s hard to deal with the two separate types of hair - virgin and colour bleached processed. Might as well cut it off and start over again.
❤❤
Yeah, when your hair hasn’t come to the point of being damaged. If you have heat or bleach damaged or splits ends, no matter how strong is your protein treatment it’s already fucked up
Your hair looked healthy. I used to complain too when my hair was thick like yours until I damaged and broke off a ton of hair. Now I’ve learned to love my hair even with the new imperfections.
Redken acidic bond shampoo & conditioner would’ve done wonders to maintain your color treated hair…as a matter of course, dying over bleached hair without proper treatment did nothing but make it weaker.
Love how think your hair is, beautiful! But girl, you have got to stop talking so fast!!😅❤
I'm also thinking olaplex, Shea moisture's protein line, coconut oil, and protecting serums and oils everyday when combing
came here to say this..redken or aphogee 2 step protein treatment
Seeing 3 totally different textures of hair on your head is absolutely beautiful. We're so magic
It's beautiful but each texture requires a different set of hair care maintenance. Which for me is super challenging and has caused breakage. I'm still trying to figure it out.
@@WallflowerCat7it’s annoying
Our people are overly obsessed with long hair or having a lot of hair. Her ends were definitely damaged and needed to be trimmed. I wish she could go to a natural hair care specialist to assist in getting her hair back into a healthy state. ❤
All races of women love long hair because it's considered more feminine and beautiful. If this weren't the case, fake hair wouldn't be a multi-billion dollar industry. I've had black women downplay my real long hair just to go and sew 30 inches into their heads. I'm not saying short hair can't be nice. I've seen black women rock the baddest short cuts, but suggesting it's only us who love long hair is misleading.
It’s not only black women. It’s all women. Look at any culture. Long hair is seen as incredibly feminine and elegant. I would say we are against the grain with how short hair is seen as beautiful in our culture
She talked about her hair being dry. She's not concerned with long hair. Where did you get that idea from?
She chopped her hair off so...? I don't think length is a big deal to her
Or maybe we want long hair because we like it.
If she was obsessed with it I doubt she would cut off any of her hair but she did.
Your natural hair is Beautiful.....it'll grow back in no time, I'm sure.
Its the products, the hair mayonnaise leave my hair hard. Protein resistance is a thing i change to design essentials products with no protein and hair mask you just have to try different brands if that helps. You do have beautiful hair
Three hydrating liquids are Rose Water, Lavender water, and Aloe Vera Juice. Ultra hydrating creams are Camille Rose Curl Love Moisture milk, and Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie with Neem Oil.
Aways found hair mayonnaise to be extremely drying and damaging. I use dollar tree conditioner to wash my scalp. Then condition my ends with the same bottle. For 1.25 every two months, my type 3-4 hair is soft and growing.
That’s because it’s a protein conditioner and needs a moisturizing conditioner after.
@@TemptressMoongirl you just saved somebody’s hair with the facts that you just stated because a lot of women have no clue that they need moisture after a protein treatment…..thanks!
I use real mayo mixed with soft avocado and some honey. Feels lovely afterwards.
it makes my hair so soft. but I only use it once a month mostly before getting braids or some protective style.
@@ms.t8313yes ma’am
I WISH I HAD YOUR HAIR SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL, YOUR HAIR IS APART OF YOU, DON'T HATE ANYTHING ABOUT YOURSELF YOUNG LADY, I HAVE 4C HAIR IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A LOT OF WORK AND BACK IN THE DAY WE DIDN'T HAVE THE PRODUCTS YOU HAVE TODAY, SO HAVE PATIENCE AND LOVE ON THAT BEAUTIFUL HEAD OF HAIR, BE BLESSED.
She hates the hair because it's damaged. I don't believe it's a self esteem issue.
@@naoedouard4422I'm in agreement with you. Bleaching and coloring our hair is bad for our hair and our health!
Lmao I wish I had a proper hairline again
you need bond rebuilding and moisture, try olaplex no 3, paired with a good deep conditioner
Lol be careful, that stuff made my hair come out and globs and it was used correctly.
@@tias.6675did you lose hair with the Olaplex? How long did you keep it in your hair before you washed it out with shampoo?
Not to ring any alarms it was on the news that Olaplex caused infertility in some women.
Yes, I switched to Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate, Moroccanoil Weightless Deep Conditioning Mask and Pureology Color Fantastic Leave-in Conditioner.
@@libbylib1819yup... I was like why sis using Aussie on bleached hair. When you bleach yoir hair you need salon quality products! Design Essentials, Aphogee, Olaplex, Redken, K18, Morrocanoil, Keratase, Pureology. The Salon loved her as a weekly client. 😅😅😅 Instead of telling her what to do to stop the breakage. Lol! 😅😅😅. My stylist told me weekly Olaplex 3. I already used a daily protein mist and a daily moisture mist.
What was already said was very good ! Also looking in the comments to see if someone mentioned it but the scissors you’re using look like regular one. Use professional scissors for hair if ever you need to cut your hair, because the regular ones tend to cause split ends 👌🏾
That’s why I’m scared of coloring my hair now because everytime it breaks
Yeah water infused with rose water, aloe Vera and hydrating oils helps too.
Happen to me. Def had to get rid of the hair. You. Sis u did the right thing!!
I have fine hair , hair color just aint fa me.
Its long now thankgod
Try some different products. My favorite tried and true deep conditioner is Shea Moisture Manuka Honey. I add some Wisdom Oil by Jennifer’s RooTz to the conditioner, mix it, then put on a plastic cap or grocery bag lol. I let mine sit for a couple hours, then rinse. This combination does a great job softening, and sealing in moisture. ✨
Ok. TGIN has a great protein conditioner and moisturizing conditioner. I highly recommend using those two together. Do the protein first followed by the moisturizing conditioner. Only do a protein conditioner once a month for you hair. You can do the moisturizing deep conditioner every week. When you have dry hair and color. The focus is on protein and moisture balance. You did a protein overload with the hair conditioner that you used. After a protein treatment, always follow up with a moisturizing conditioner or even a nice hot oil treatment to being back the softness of your hair. Ideally, you could have worn your hair in two strand twists or braided or twisted your natural hair down. Next, spray your hair with aloe vera juice or water, follow it with one of those moisturizing sprays with oils and humectants. Finally, seal with a light oil or hair lotion . Do that every day or every other day. That would help with hydration and moisture retention for dry hair. Shampoo and condition hair every week or every two weeks at most. My natural hair with no color gets dry quick and this is what I do. I hydrate and moisturize frequently during the week to keep it soft and supple between hair washes. Hope this helps.
No way you hate all this thick,wooly beautiful hair.
Yeeee
Your hair is gorgeous 😍 try some low maintenance hairstyles and protein treatments bi monthly for strengthing and healthy hair
I have ginger/copper hair right now - some of my fell also. My beautician gave me a deep conditioner treatment and oil treatment which work for me. My hair feels so soft and look healthy. However she did say I can’t get anymore color.
TGIN has been so nourishing for my hair... try it out. I will never bleach/box color my hair again. I went through the colors of the rainbow in my 20's ruined my hair for years. The last time, I only colored my ends and I still had to chop it all off because the split ends traveled up the shaft. My hair is now almost waist length and healthy due to no harsh chemicals. I only shampoo, deep condition, leave in conditioner and twist weekly. Good luck and God bless.
Yeah, i had this problem with hair color. I let it grow out. I washed weekly and deep conditioned in the shower. And its why i am no longer a fan of color. Its beautiful when its fresh and done in healthly hair. But afterwards is a lot of money & maintenance & hair fall. So, i let the other women do the beautiful color and remember the heartache i went through before thinking about doing it again.
Licensed Cosmetologist here... hey girl heeeeeey👋🏾💗Products makes a big difference as well as what you're doing on a daily & what you're putting in your body.
You did the right thing...do what your heart says so that your confidence stays strong. ❤ Hair grows back❤
Short or long, your hair is really beautiful. Tell your family its just hair ❤
I love that you are not attached to length. Your hair is so beautiful! If you feel the need to explore color, please look into something natural or just let your hair be its natural color. I have watched so many influencers grow their hair to perfect healthiness, but for the sake of content continue using all kinds of products and then next thing you know...
I feel like that now. I always get to this point.. Like my hair isn’t doing right but it is actually. I just need a trim, eat more vegetables,more water, daily multivitamin. I’m on a journey to grow back to waist length, after cutting it SEVERAL times due to how I’m feeling, how I think my hair is behaving, how I want it to behave lol., so I’m going to leave it alone, but have my husband trim it even. He says I’m always cutting something. I have fine hair though. I wish it was thicker.
Petroleum jelly and batana oil is recommended to grow thick, long hair. 💚
@SONYA Renee maybe you need to stop focusing so much on your hair and possibly it will continue to grow longer and healthier. All the best on your hair journey.
Don't forget plenty of protein too. Hair is made of protein and when we're not getting enough our hair grows brittle and weak.
Yup I have! Thats why I am not dying my hair ever again, and I’m getting a relaxer. I am done with natural hair. I have done it for 9 years and I’m done with it!!!!
Makes no sense!!! 🥴
You know it causes cancer but you're going back to it?? 🙄
There's non-chemical, non-heat hair tools on the market that you can use to straighten your hair. That way you can switch back & forth when you like. 🤗
Try the doo grow deep conditioner the blue one I highly recommend. Because i got the same mayo deep conditioner and it didn’t do me no justice. My hair was dry feeling still while in the shower and my scalp was still itchy and dry. Until i got the actual container of the blue doo grow my hair was actually left feeling moisturized. It gave it slip so i could comb it out in the shower, and baby my hair is THICK with fine hair strands and very curly/coily. - just for reference. And I literally came from growing out my bleached to red hair and black dye situationship.
Start over. Your hair will grow back luscious and strong. Please leave the trends alone and go back to the basics and you will love your hair again. Word of advice: leave the combs and brushes alone, finger detangle your fragile hair.
Beautiful ❤. I do box braids on my natural hair no extensions. And just clean it and do pin up styles with the braids. Best decision I ever made. Glory to the Lord. Best blessings to you on your journey. 🙏🏾
Cutting off my hair again was the best thing I could have done. Now it’s healthy and very minimal shedding.
Honestly, I've never dyed my hair, but I do use a 5:1 water & glycerin spray, the 4C Only style cream, and castor oil to seal and moisturize my hair. I've had really wonderful results. I also use African Black soap to wash my hair and that gets it really clean. I use the TGIN hair mask to condition it. I've heard that the temp colored hair creams can be better for your hair if you like playing with color bc they just wash out. Or just adding fake hair or clip ins. Good luck on your journey!
Castor oil, vegetable glycerine, Shea butter and olive oil are my 4c staples. African black soap is amazing for the hair and body. I purchased a huge block of it once 😂 It lasted over a year (cut into smaller bars) and was wonderful, but I prefer the liquid soap. The bar is too organic lol. It had broken pod pieces inside that would scratch the skin. Fine for the hair, but not skin and face!
Yes I have! Bleach and I don't get along at all... my hair constantly broke off so I cut it off on May 9th and I cut alot off.. I'm not going to use colour or chemicals anymore as I always notice my hair is significantly thinner and breaks whenever I do.. Good luck with your journey ❤
Please try natural henna dyes (#HennaSooq), Redken Acidic Bonding to repair, Moroccanoil Weightless Deep Mask Conditioner and Pureology Color Fantastic Leave-in Conditioner.
❤
Your hair is beautiful. Weekly deep conditioning. Also, know your protein / moisture balance levels. The moisture makes it soft , protein strengthens it. Find products that your hair likes, they don’t always have to be expensive. Leave in conditioners can be a game changer. Just make sure you have a good clarifying shampoo and one that moisturizes. You are on your way .
This happened to me before as well. I don't dye my hair anymore. I just wear wigs or weaves in a color I would like to try on myself so I don't mess up my natural hair. And I do not care if someone hates wigs or weaves. I didnt ask and I don't care. It works for me and thats all that matters. My natural hair is doing great.
Say that! I will dye, fry, and lay a wig out in a heartbeat. This way, when I decide to wear my hair, it's healthy and ready to rock.
That’s what I do now too! My hair thanks me for it lol
I feel your pain! Exactly why I don’t dye my hair anymore! As much as I want to. Highlights don’t seem to be so bad. But that all over bleach.. no matter how much I trimmed my ends were always dry! 1 suggestion, keep your hair in mini twist (moisturized to the max), and trim regularly. U won’t have to worry about so much manipulation and breakage! It’s a good way to transition, because you are going to overall end up just cutting out all that color which is the goal, but u can keep your hair. But if it’s breaking to bad just cut it sis!
She dyed her hair black, that shouldn't involve bleach and shouldn't have damaged her hair. Of course, there may be other chemicals, like ammonia, that could damage the hair.
Some hair issues start from inside! You could have a deficiency somewhere that’s preventing your hair from getting proper nutrients that your body naturally produces. Ie. iron deficiency, lack of protein, vitamin a b e
I am encouraged!!! I think l like this method of cutting. You did a great job!!!
You would
When I used to bleach and dye my hair back in 2016 - 2017 era I used olaplex, deep conditioners and protein treatments. I recommend using Joico and/or Redken.
You are gorgeous! And your hair looked healthy during the chop! Starting over isn’t always a bad thing. Good luck getting your moisture back!
That ORS Hair Mayonnaise is what's making your hair feel like that. You probably didn't need to cut it, but now that you have, please remove that from your regimen. It cause my hair to matte badly, and it started falling out. It took me over 2 months to get healthy hair back, but im finally back on the right track. I used to use that stuff when i was relaxed, so i thought my natural hair would like it as well. I could not have been more wrong.
i died my hair for a decade & it was ruinedddd i had to cut it superrrrr short & completely start over .. i didnt apply any heat.. let it air dry.. i use products that are paraben & sulfate free, i deep condition once every week & let it sit overnight under a plastic cap. i use leave in conditioners only that have clean ingredients, castor oil, & my favorite product line is TGIN (thank god it's natural) my hair is superrrrr soft healthy & flowy & long now .. & i also take a women's daily multivitamin that has biotin in it.
You did that!! You did a good job on that cut!!!
I've been cutting my hair gradually because I didn't want to have a big chop. It took a long time, but it's worth it. You can also use a steamer to add moisture to your hair.
Yes I have the same issue. Bleached, dyed jet black, and it's just dry. I'm just getting it back to somewhat have a little moisture, trying to figure it out as i go along. I'm using the Jamaican Black Castor oil S,C, & DC. I really want to cut it off and grow it back, I'm fighting myself 😢
The Alikay Naturals Lemongrass Leave In Conditioner can bring even the most parched hair back to life!
I have 4z low porosity hair that is extremely fussy, but this hydrates it fully with no residue or shrinkage.
My daughter showed me African Pride pre poo...works wonders....detangles your hair in a NY minute. Try it please. Don't destroy your beautiful hair❤❤
Get all the product build-up out of your hair first. You can try a clay mask and apple cider vinegar rinse. Next, steam your scalp and use a rice water product on your hair. You may need to repeat it a couple times. Go in with moisturizing products afterwards, especially oils.
Olaplex sister! It's an awesome bond builder and repair system.
Hello cosmetologist here sometimes ppl hair just can't take color or lightener no matter how much you care for it and some ppl are allergic to color and bleach.
I’m glad that you cut your hair and started over.
ANY chemical process whether it’s relaxer, hair dye(temporary or permanent), can and will cause some damage.
It’s just hair so it will grow back.
Thanks for posting.
Yes I had this problem before. I had to cut my hair off as well. It hurt so bad but I didn't have a choice.
You grow girl! Good job getting rid of those damaged ends. There’s a little more that needs to be trimmed off but keep deep conditioning at least twice a month and doing treatments with every wash! Good luck and enjoy the grow back process!
Beautiful Brown Girl
The hair is Amazing 🤍
From someone who was struggling with colored hair (I’m talking bright blues, purples and BLONDE) and is growing from ear to now collarbone length, all you need is weekly bond treatments (the red wella one is the best one imo), a DIY hair mask of Greek yogurt, honey and shikaki powder mix and LEAVING IT ALONE til it’s time to wash again.
I only use aussie, that dryness happened to me to when i started it too. But we're black, our hair has to be super wet to lock in the moisture. Wet wet wet your hair and only apply the conditioner, and brush through. That moisture will last a week sis. Wet, condition, brush, rince with cold water and apply leave in conditioner.
Aussie is just bad period
So we have to wash our hair weekly it can’t be biweekly?
Aussie is not good. I used it for some years and it made my hair start falling out as well as my kid's hair too. Never again will I buy that stuff.
All these cheap products thats why yall are balding 😂
@@frankiem4062 my hair is too my azz, hush puppy
I did, and I literally shaved my hair bald 3 months ago. I stopped using dye, and my hair is all ready a mini afro. Soft and healthy. I have 4C ❤
I always had to cut my hair to 1 or 2 inches and start over. It’s only 9 months to mid-back if length is what you desire. In the meantime, I would enjoy washing it daily when I hit the shower and would detangle at the end of growth period. Needless to say, I’d have to comb out a pot full of tangles to enjoy my waist length hair 😂
BACK AWAY FROM THE PRODUCTS! Our Hair GROWS ( Without ) them! Add a dime size of Oil, Blow Dry, Or Press, or Braid. Then LEAVE IT ALONE!😌🙏💖
Been dealing with that. Sigh! It’s actually pretty the way it looks after you cut the ends! ❤💁🏻♀️
Honestly-a long Mohawk would suit you and also be very chic!
Yes . Hair color led me to my first big chop
Hot oil treatments, deep conditioning, you need a water-based leave-in conditioner for hydration or moisturizer!!!!
When I used to bleach and color, I would keep a rinse over it. Literally lift the color of my hair, dye it my desired colors, and do a rinse over it. When the rinse rinsed, Id put another rinse in.
My childhood hair dresser taught me this at 14 when I started coloring my hair. I would get copper shades a lot and my hair never broke off. Back then they didnt have natural hair products and I did not take good care of my hair. All I did was keep a rinse in, condition when I washed and I never had breakage.
I personally liked the color deposit from the rinse but they do make no color hair rinses. Rinses are still my fall back when my hair is dry. In the winter I put a clear rinse over my hair. When I tried the Brazilian blowout, it dried my hair out, I put a clear rinse over it. It saves me from breakage.
My daughter has super dry ends, so this summer Im trying a rinse on the dry bottom half of her hair. Hopefully this will preserve that hair.
Hope this helps.
This was WORTH the read!!! and I hate to ask you to divulge any further but…can I know what brand you use for the rinse? And correct me if I’m wrong but I need clarification 😅 are you saying that you would bleach your hair “literally lift the color off my hair” then You would add box dye over it, THEN put a rinse over it??? If so I think I remember my stylist doing that for me when she dyed my hair red and you are right I had no breakage from that dye treatment 👍🏽
Yep! She needed to correct the porosity of her hair. The rinses do that! Good on you🖤
Omg what exactly is a rinse?
@@nenala7684semi permanent hair color
I had blonde hair once. I did it after a I cut my hair off. After the roots grew out like 5/6 inches I colored the root the copper color. So I had blonde hair about 7/8 inches at the bottom and top was copper.
I stopped taking care of it during the Spring of 2019. I cut it again and died it back black. Grew it out again and cut off what woukd have been the copper color.
In my opinion, with the color...Aussie is not the way. Creme of Nature Shampoo and conditioner (that is an old school throwback. Use the regular products not all that "honey this and that mess"). Also, you could use Bentonite Clay mask (you choose what additive you want woth the apple cider vinegar to mix the mask). That helped me for the year and a half I had the color.
Girly didnt even care about our advice lol she went ahead and cut it. As you should! Hair grows back! I never dyed my hair however i cut my hair recently cause i wanted a fresh start and all the same length (it was nearly waist length) and i love it!! So much easier to wash, detangle etc. Natural hair is all about learning how to do your hair tbh and that can go for any hair type and texture. Your hair texture and thickness is gorgeous
I'd definitely consider washing your hair more regularly and looking into protein moisture balance. I never had colored hair, but my hair used to be super dry, brittle, and the ends were always breaking off. Every time I took it out of a protective style my hair would fall off onto my shoulders. After learning to wash my hair once a week and maintain a healthy moisture protein balance, my hair thrived.
I also stopped using Aussie products except for their 3 min deep conditioner to detangle before I shampoo.. but only because it's cheap. Aussie products aren't sufficient enough for my hair.
Girl. I’m with you. As much as I love my natural hair, I have moments of frustration to the cutting point. But patience and time. The cut looks good. Great job.
Girl Aussie had me thinking I had something serious going on the way my hair was falling out. Until I realized it a product line for people with oily hair, which ain’t me. Once I switched my products I had no problem what so ever. I use tgin and tph products. I promise you won’t regret it.
Exactly! I will never use Aussie again.
It’s beautiful at either length! ❤ Do what you gotta do sis! It’s only hair! ❤
Even black hair dye damages my hair I now just leave it it’s natural color and hue. An my hair is at its BEST. Barely any breakage.
Same thing my hair is going through. I’m almost to the point to chop it off and start over. I too died it and now I regret it so bad
You’re doing the right thing. Gradually or big chop the bleached hair off as your new growth comes in. Depositing color isn’t worth it long term because lightener is permanent so it has to be cut to get rid of it, that’s if you no longer desire color treated hair my dear ❤.
Yes that hair color has my hair feeling very different
I’d say keep it old school. No more dyes. Only add black rinse or crystal clear rinse. Wash hair well with a clarifying shampoo this is the most important step. It’s how hair locks in moisture from the conditioners, leave ins or masks. The hair must be well saturated in water for products to absorb completely in the hair.
Chileeee! Not color but after 12 yrs going back to relaxer! Smh my hair got soooo damaged I grew it out 6mos then chopped it. Im already gettin compliments on my healthy fro!❤
Even the quick haircut your hair is very beautiful and the cut is flattering
I love Mielle ,aunt Jackie’s and design essentials products also I stick to rinse and not dyes .. I wish you the best ❤️your hair will be back in a blink of an eye .. it’s gorgeous
TRY A NATURAL ORGANIC HERBAL HAIR DYE. In AFRICA they use some type of clay dye.. The less harsh chemicals the better for your hair. There are also some videos on using red onion skins to color your hair.
I definitely have dealt with this after coloring my hair and yes I had to cut mine all off as well
Glycerine and distilled water will help retain moisture, spray daily.
I received a swag bag at an event that included very high end hair products. I usually see these brands at the beauty supply and look and default to my usual stuff. I tried pureology for dry colour treated hair (hydrate) shampoo/conditioner and leave in! My goodness! Hair hydrated very well!
Design Essentials natural is a great hairline. Wash your hair weekly, sit under the dryer for 15 minutes, use leave in conditioner, and twist it up. Grease your scalp with Design essentials or/and sulfur 8. I promise you’ll be happy.
Don’t hate your hair. Practice self love. Not self hates Your hairs is beautiful and God gave it to you. Learn to love yourself.
When you lighten(bleach) your hair, it becomes damaged (brittle). You are stripping your hair of color. Therefore, it's extremely fragile and dry like straw. I would suggest that you do not lighten your hair. You can darken it because adding a darker shade does not necessarily cause it to become dry. I've done the same in the past, I no longer make it any shade lighten than my natural tone., but I do add darker shades. Good luck 😊
The conditioner you used is protein base. You need something more hydrating. That's for strengthening
Weekly deep conditioning with a hair steamer would maximally hydrate your hair.
omg please please please. i went on a natural hair journey in 2018, straight up bald. i have not used bleach, hair dye, heat, blow dryers, etc etc. no curling or straighteners. for the last however many years, since 2018. i have been dyeing since I was 13 years old, ok. tried every style, bleach damage, etc. even when i was a younger girl, my hair has never been THIS HEALTHY, in my whole life. the hair industry is a scam. it doesn't matter the hair type either, whether 4c or 2c, just leave your hair alone. if you do the big chop, just start by nourishing your hair, having a wash schedule, and extra leave in conditioners. using protective styles, and not doing stuff every single day. im starting to learn about heatless curls. it will take time, but after a few years you will have amazing, soft, nourished hair. these dyes and bleaches will damage the cuticle. good luck
I don't have the same texture as you, but I am LOVING castor oil on my scalp and amla or argon oil on the scalp and hair.
Gurl, medication has ruined my hair I wish my hair was that beautiful and thick, you’re blessed. But I get it, natural dyed hair can be a struggle 🤷🏾♀️.
First suggestion: start focusing on ways to love your hair, as well as how it empowers you and connects you with the divine, and avoid saying that you hate it. You were entrusted with your crown and hairtage for a reason.
I had to do the same thing after dying my hair red for 3 yrs. I dyed my hair back to black, 2 yrs ago, and cut off the processed ends slowly. My hair was mid back length prior to dying it red. Two yrs later, my hair is now at bra strap length. It’s thick, and healthy again. I will never bleach my hair ever again unless I go short.
You and your hair are so pretty. Do what you feel is best, of course. As you said, it grows back
This was me a month ago. I had dyed it and it kept shedding endlessly. My scalp felt dry even after deep conditioning it as well,and my scalp was so itchy like it was on fire. One morning I woke up and asked my husband to just buzz it all off. Never felt so much peace
