I’m 72 and was taught by my mother to shampoo once a week. If I go longer than 7 or 8 days my scalp begins to itch. When I transitioned from perms to natural I did the Anthony Dickie method. Now I still shampoo once a week and water spritz every other day plus leave in conditioner. Works for this old lady😎 No protective styles just curls . I was never able to style my hair, still can’t
#2 “consistency is not perfection”. That was a whole word 👏🏽 Not just for hair. For life in general. Also love #4 and #5 … thanks for the great tips Jenn! My wash day is Sat/Sun. Depending on my mood & energy (giving myself grace). If Saturday won’t do then it’s definitely Sunday.
This is common sense information. But the takeaway is not to let your hair care routine get put of too long when life happens. I agree with Jenn and implement everything that she highlights in this video
Jenn you are sooo right!! I’ve noticed that my hair “behaves” since I’ve been consistent. I’m a once a week girl also and didn’t connect the dots on consistency until you pointed it out. TY!!
The work you put into your videos really shows sis😍I love how you structure and edit your videos and the information you give is very practical and its easy to follow. Like everything just makes sense and feels right in a way!
Jenn great tips🥰💙.. I’m a once a week gurl; however, lately I’ve been off a bit 😮🤦🏾♀️.. but as always you give me a push & help me realize that I Truly need to take time out for “me” 😊
I am a once a week girl with a two day allowance either way if things pop up, or I have something important like a meeting which means I need my hair fresh and at it's finest. 6 months natural andbi can already see length gains from when I started. I have a solid routine with a few changes depending on the time I have but it is working for me. I wish I'd stopped relaxing my hair sooner. Thanks Jen these are great tips. 💜
My hair is better because of your influential fyi videos. Seriously!! I do suffer from autoimmune issues so at the current state my hair is challenged.; but at least I'm equipped with the know how to.. Thanks sis..be well, stay safe..God bless you and your family! Happy holidays.😊😊😊
I actually put a schedule on my phone's calendar, it's every Thursday. But like this week Thursday was not happening, so I did my routine today, biggest benefit for me is how much less time it takes me to detangle!!!
Good talk/ tips Jenn. I am currently consistent with monthly washing, conditioning, prepping my hair for protective styling, on my days off the first week of the month. However, sometimes I get stuck with styling decisions and end up wearing head coverings for a week or two. But still moisturize and spritz every 2-3 days. Consistency is important, you're right. We all know this. The struggle to commit is real. Thank you for continuing to encourage us with your level of commitment to your self care routine ❤
I really want to be consistent but so far this desire has not helped me to be. So I guess I have to plan properly with every week being my goal. Thanks for this video because I do need the motivation.❤❤❤
My routine of every 5 days got stopped in its tracks in Dec 2022 when my dumb immune system decided that my hair follicles were foreign bodies that needed to be attacked, and I was diagnosed with CCCA. So here I am stuck with a 3-day routine after trying to make it to 4 days quite a few times only to be awakened at 3 or 4 in the morning by an itching burning scalp that was screaming for medicated shampoo immediately! Finally, I gave in so it's 3 days without compromise!🤷♀🤣 I suppose I shouldn't complain because I've seen pics of what late-stage CCCA without treatment can do and mine was caught early with a positive response to treatment so I didn't get any bald spots and my shedding has returned to normal.
Consistency to me means, really being serious about washing my hair when it needs it. But there's no timetable because there are so many factors, right? Working out, sweating, winter hats, etc. But there are things that I do that are consistent: I apply growth oil to my scalp twice in between washings; I do an additional scalp treatment the day before I wash my hair, I apply an aloe/oil mixture to my hair and scalp once between washings, I do scalp massages twice a day, I do hibiscus/Indian herb mask once a month, I put a heavy oil on my ends once a week, and I do a ACV or tea rinse to keep knots away. But what I no longer do, is WAIT until my hair is near death before washing. I also no longer do random stuff to my hair and hope for the best. I've decided to be very focused and only use what I know works.
I wash my hair every two weeks and when it in braids I wash and deep condition it once a mth get it redo around the hairline and keep it on for another month.
I usually wash my hair on Mondays after work, and it doesn’t take much time at all. 1. I take down my hair and finger detangle (which takes the most time) 2. If I decide to detangle with a brush in the shower that takes about 20 minutes (I’m currently working with permanent parts. It’s usually 10 minutes when my hair is in larger sections or loose) 3. I shampoo in loose twists once or twice depending on how the shampoo lathers the first time around. 4. I apply a deep conditioner in the shower and put my hair in a bun, I put a plastic bag on when I get out. 5. I don’t time my deep conditioning step, but I usually rinse my hair when I notice there’s no water dripping from the sides of the plastic cap. In total it takes an hour and half to two hours to finish.
I am not consistent bc I have my head and two other heads to do. If I did our heads consistently we would never be able to run errands, do after school activities or go to bed at a decent hour. 🤦🏾♀️

Once a week on Sunday or Monday. Things opened up for me when I realized I could wash my hair right after ending my workday.

Yes Jenn, consistency makes life easier.
3× a week is my routine Sunday Shampoo Tuesday and Thursday cowash. Works best for me.

Weekly routine is essential! Best video Jenn I’ve seen today😊!
I started out being consistent with my hair. I am no longer that girl. I am getting back to her because i miss that time with my curls. Thanks Jenn
Yes consistency is the plan!

I've been washing every 2 weeks but now it's more like every 7-10 days. Working on getting better!
Great video Mrs. Jen❤❤❤😊
Thank you for that encouragement. What you said makes good sense. May God bless you and keep you in his care. God bless you and your family 😊🙌🏽🙏🏽😇😍
If not daily, 3x week.. Doing the dickey wash and wear. I exercise 3 x a week as well. So habit stacking works!
Nice! So many are doing this method and loving it

You can do it!
@@JennJackson Thank you 💕
Man!! By far, one of my favorite TH-cam channel! ✨
Wow, thanks!
Thank you so much Jenn for this video. Consistency is key!
What about when my hair is on braids, how can I stay consistent?
Loved the reminders!🥰🥰
Always!
The truth! I consistently wash my hair 3x weekly. Mainly wear a wash n go. If I twist, then once weekly.❤
Love that!

Hi Jenn, I do my hair 1 or 2 times a week😁
Hey Jenn...great vid as always. I do mine once a week but then work is real so that gets thrown off😬.
I've been doing my hair every 9th day for a couple of years now😊
Nice

I love cowash everyday day of the week, except the week I have my periods ❤

Hey jennj once a week is my routine
Nice!
The word of today is Consistent. Consistent in haircare, skincare, exercise, and health. The key is consistent again. I got it teacher Jenn. 👍
I wanna do it weekly but most times i have my hair in braids🥴
2weekly is it for me. Have been working out so my scalp is now itchy in a week so i have to wash every week now.
❤❤❤
Twice a month for me.(3 times a month if I tried a new product and didn’t like it! Can’t stand dry or sticky.)
Not me immediately taking my moisturizer and oil to do my hair.😮😂
It’s like that sometimes 😮💨
Every two weeks
I am not consistent bc I have my head and two other heads to do. If I did our heads consistently we would never be able to run errands, do after school activities or go to bed at a decent hour. 🤦🏾♀️
We can only be as consistent as our lifestyle allows. I am sure you are doing your best
True consistency is the key I used to wash whenever my hair is itchy now I wash every Sunday morning. It's in me now I can't skip it
I know this video is about hair but I like your tongue ring Lol 😂 can make a video about when you got it put in?
Thank you but I doubt I’ll make a video 😅
@@JennJackson you welcome 😂
I wash my hair twice a week I workout 5 days a week and sweat a lot. But not longer than once a week.
Ok fitness journey!
❤
Cute shirt
I hope your not preaching to the choir
🤔
@@JennJackson hope your not just preaching to the choir. hope others that may not exercise consistency are listening
GET. TO THE POINT..TALK TOO MUCH
