Wowwwwwwww! The first tip...PRAY!!!! I loved it! I totally agree! Take better care but keep God first. "Don't make your hair a god." You are so right. That was the best thing I've heard on a hair care video on youtube and I've watched DOZEN AND DOZENS!!! Great video! :)
I made a ton of prayers daily for my hair but somehow they were never answered the way I wanted. However, my prayers have been answered for other more meaningful things such as marriage and career.
forreal that's what I say. I am a woman of od but before seeing this video I was 2 seconds from making my hair my God......so crazy. So now I'm going to put od 1st in everything including my hair.
I lost my hair and I had always been known for my long, thick hair. It's devastating when you lose your hair. See, some people think it's just hair, but hair is a reflection of your overall health. Later that summer, I found out that I was toxic due to the foods I ate. That is why I say healthy hair helped my overall health. When I got that in line, I cleared up some health problems.
Good day ma'am! Just wanted to say that you should have keep up with your beautiful hair vlog to be encouraging us☺️☺️ love all few videos but was really hoping to get more of your hair vlog.
Amen!!! Our hair is our glory and the Lord thought highly of us to number each strand. God bless you for putting God first in your hair care breakthrough.
You are just so sweet...thanks for your encouraging story. I am south Asian, a mom of 2 small kids, I'm experiencing the thinning at crown too - it was really demotivating. I'm going to try your suggestions. Lord bless you for having courage to share your pics and your experience.
Thank you Shalena! You were an answer to a prayer I prayed just last night. I am amazed out how timely and swiftly the Lord has been answering my prayer. God bless you.
I noticed that, too, and I didn't want to obsess over my hair, especially, when I was waiting for my hair to grow back. This journey taught me patience and time management skills because I stuck to a strict regimen, meaning Saturdays were my shampoo days, et. Everyone respected that and didn't bother me on shampoo day! :)
+7mike2300 Hi Mike, Hair treatment takes time and you have to be patient. I used many treatment for my hair and many of them did not work and since I am the kind of person that works, I cant be having oils in my hair and having greasy situation. Please be aware when you used hair treatment it does not take one day to grow hair, nor 7 days, it will takes more time than one month, you must be patient. I had my hair falling for nothing and I began to have a bald spot on my head and as woman that affected me a lot but men are no different from woman, it affects them as much as we do, you are young. I used Hair Essential, it took one whole month to stop the hair falling, then 4 months later I noticed baby hair coming out of my head, I have been using it for 3 and half years, my hair is completely full now after almost 3 years. I still use it, so hope this can help but everybody is different.
Mayra Martinez hola Mayra, si vives en US hay unas vitaminas se llaman Megafoods hair, nail and skin, es muy buena y no te da molestias estomacales, pruebala, y sigue los consejos de Shalena
THANK YOU for bringing your faith into the conversation. I've been doing a ton of research on how to take care of my hair naturally and you are the first to mention God. I know that God doesn't want us to be vain but He also wants us to be women of excellence and put our best selves forward. God bless you and thanks for the tips!
Thank you for this. I have become obsessed with my hair and hair videos. I sincerely appreciate the wake up call to not make my hair my god. I needed to hear that.

Hands down the best informative video on TH-cam. Excellent advice and thank you for doing all the research. I don't drink enough water but I do eat well and noticed some hair loss. I also noticed when I use Henna to dye my hair it's healthier than using chemical dyes. Excellent video and thank you for posting it. Surprised you don't have 10million views and likes.
I loved this video. I love that you put God first and I love that through the process of changing different things in your life, you wound up not just with thicker hair but nourishing the body He gave you, which must feel great. God bless you!
I really enjoyed this video. You kept it super simple and full of information and you kept the Lord involved. No vulgarity, no music, and thanks for the before and after pics. Thanks and please share any other helpful information.

The amountless numbers of positive vibes I recieved from this video .. from you.. is AWESOME! So thank you for that! I love the Can-Do attitude :) I will definitely start doing what u recommended.. thank you so much :)
thank you sooo much!! I'm 19 yrs old from london and you have truly inspired me. I've just cut my hair down to two inches and just want to start again. I see it as rebirth but, not only for my hair but for my whole well being. Your video has inhanced my jouney. thank you! :D
This was a great video. Thank you for being brave enough to show us where you started and how far you have come. It really gives us out there just starting our hair journeys encouragement that if we stay the course our hair will GROW!!! Thank you!
I truly have to say thank you for this video. I have been searching and searching through you tube in hopes to find great advice and you have given that. I really needed this and as soon as I get off I am going to pick up those items that you suggested. Stay blessed and continue to do what you are doing!
Bless your heart! Great information! My hair has thickened, but struggling with my edges and crown. I had a little bottle if emu oil I forgot about, just start using and the jbco again. I'm 56 years old and I have salt and pepper hair. I do obsess about my hair a lot because most of my life I had a lot of hair. When I went into menopause and wore wigs for 3 years my hair really suffered.
Thank you for reminding us to keep God first. It is so refreshing to hear that on a You Tube Video as another viewer already said. Blessings to you and thanks so much!!!
You go girl!!! God is concerned with all that concerns us and He knows what will work and what won't. I am so proud of you for putting Him first. God wants us to ask Him about EVERYTHING, however, most people don't think to as Him about day to day care as you did. Again, AWESOME!!! Keep up the GREAT work...
I JUST LOVE UR PERSONALITY, AND UR ENCOURAGING WORDS AND THE WAY U WERE VERY BLUNT AND NOT ASHAMED TO MENTION MY GOD! THAT'S RIGHT HUN, DON'T EVER CARE WHAT ANYBODY SAYS ABOUT BEING RELIGIOUS ONLINE, IF THEY DON'T LIKE IT THEY MAY QUICKLY CHANGE THE CHANNEL, AHAHA. BE BLESSED AND CONGRATS ON UR SUCCESS WITH UR HAIR REGIMEN:-)
I'm so glad that resonated with you: IT'S THE TRUTH! God really taught me alot with my natural hair routine. I will post a video about it one day. Believe it or not, my healthy hair journey improved my health, time management skills, and helped me during my grieving process after the death of my nephew.
Thank you I have been looking for a way to help my hair. I am a God fearing Saint and I value God's guidance. You have inspired me not only to seek God about my hair but to also do those things that are healthy for my body, like drink more water!
Wow! I'm going thru this now and am natural wearing a short tapered cut. I'm glad you stated there are a lot of factors come into play with your hair in combination with your body. I will use these tips. Thank you
God bless you.... you have totally changed my way of thinking....I think i have been being too conceited with my hair....and now that it's slowly falling out I feel like I'm loosing hope for it to return to how it was. Thank you do so much, so proud of you. May God bless you and your family...gosh...I have tear in my eyes xxxx
Thanks for giving glory to God! I had something happen that thinned out my crown but the hair is trying to grow back. I am going to incorporate your suggestions so that it comes in even faster.
Nikki Clark WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!!! I can't wait to do a hair journey video about how this journey affected MY LIFE! Here's the short version: Once I started on this journey, I began to love myself more. As a result I started demanding and asking more of life and myself. I realized that I was in a toxic relationship of 6 years and left EVERYTHING. Embracing my natural beauty helped me to find the inner strength to create the life of my dreams. I will do a video about this soon. xoxoxoxox
shalenadiva it's wonderful to hear you're efforts to take care of yourself made you love yourself that much more. That's the greatest gift you gave yourself!
ur video is really inspiring..and definitely d most informative hair grow tutorial i hav ever come across..i hav a balding crown and hav used like everything from nature to science but NOTHING WORKS!! m eager to follow ur tips coz i hav a strong feeling dat they would work...thank you dear..GOD BLESS!!
Stress was killing my hair. My scalp was oily, my hair was thin and it felt a lot in the shower. I wet to the dermatologist and she gave me this directions: exercise half an hour every day to help controlling my stress levels. Wash the hair every day instead of doing it every other day or every other two days (the natural oils were doing more harm than good) and stop pulling the hair up. Thanks for your advice, I'm sure they will be very helpful. God bless you
stephjarr well you add extra stress to the strand and the scalp. Have you notice it hurts a bit or feels funny when you let your hair down? That is not very good for the roots because you are actually pulling them out. The younger strands (the new hair) are delicate and can be pulled our easily, specially if you have an oily scalp like me. The excess oil lubricates the follicle (I'm not sure if it's spelled correctly, sorry) and makes it extra vulnerable and easy to pull out. So my doctor said be careful with the updos.
I haven't had a perm in over 3 to 4 years I have edges that are a little thin but mostly I have further up close to the center on each side of the middle of my head little hairs but they never seem to grow thick and right in the center front the hair never grows past my nose and its thin to the crown so I'm glad to know your here because I was truly going back to a perm even though perms and color seem to swell me up now so I haven't wanted to put anything that's going to make it worst on my hair. I am older and diabetic but am will to try these things. Have a happy, safe day.
Thank you for sharing your video and you healthy hair journey!! You by far have the best natural hair regimen that I've seen that I am going to follow. I was very hesitant about the Monistat procedure that I know many black women are using and I didn't want to use that. Again, thank you. After my results I will share.
I love your attitude and positivity about this, I think that is as much help to me, if not more, than any of the tips - which I'm going to start trying. Thank you so much.
i subscribed as soon as i noticed she actually does reasearch . sounds just like me right now I've been looking everywhere to find how to make my balding crown grow . i have a condition where i pull my hair out and it has gotten really really bad but im really going to pray about this , eat more healthier and also take my vitamins I've already been trying to drink more water and exercise so i guess when i find the time ill upload videos of how its coming along for me . thank you so much :)
I loved this video! My edges are thinning from months of tight buns and ponytails (the stay at home mom style). I'm definitely going to try your tips! Thanks!
Thanks for posting this. I'm definitely going to try some of the things you've mentioned. I'm suffering from hair loss (male pattern baldness) due to PCOS and it's extremely demoralising as I once had long THICK strands of unmanageable hair. I read in many places that women who lose their hair due to PCOS will never be able to grow their hair back because their effected hair follicles are dead, I'm not willing to give up just yet. So once again thank you for sharing your experience with us. :)
You are such a blessing. 1st what you said about making your hair your God. I was beginning to do that. Thank you for bringing me back girl. 2nd that there's hope for my bald spot. I just noticed how I have a pretty large on in the front of my head. This gives me hope that I can grow the hair back. Thank you, and be blessed.
Grounded flaxseed is better for your body due to the Omega 3s. Great in smoothies. I appreciate your video! I think the foods we eat can lead to the hormonal imbalances which can cause the hair loss.
Awesome, thank you so much for the advice. My boyfriend started balding and It has really messed with his self-esteem. I remind him everyday that with or without hair he still looks good but these tips will really help. :)
Peace sis! You did an excellent job of presenting the information in your video. May I add detoxing the body with a cleanse. Ridding the body of toxins will improve absorption of those wonderful nutrients you’ve mentioned! Dietary changes involving nutrient dense foods render better results in a clean body. Blessings to you and thanks for the awesome reminders!
I too, want to applaud you for putting God first because prayer changes EVERYTHING!! Also, thank you for sharing your story as well as your video of your journey. I've been praying for God to help me with my hair thinning and eventually going bald in some areas. This has truly taken a toll on my self-esteem. I've asked beauticians as well as went to see a dermatologist. The beautician just was taking my money but not really helping me and the dermatologist ran a bunch of tests checking my thyroid, testosterone levels, etc. and they were all fine. I've had people tell me a bunch of products to use but not how to use them and I'm sick of just throwing money away. I'm going to try everything that you have said on here including changing my diet and exercise and I hope it goes well for me like it did for you☺️. Be Blessed and keep doing what you are doing to help women like me. Thank you again. 😌
Your video is very inspirational...Yes always put God first i recently had a weave dat left my edges real thin & one side bald..Its a lesson learned i will take da steps of wut u suggested & most defintley da oil for my edges...Praying dat it works because i do like to wear my hair but imma have to wait till i get dem to grow bk...THANKS ALOTT!!
I'm just wondering why people come on a video about improving self and have hateful, mean, ugly things to say? OAN: Everything you stated is correct. It is inside out first ! Keep up the great work and I'm glad your hair grew back!
Oh I love what you said about God and about health and I just loved the whole video. I was watching a lot of hair videos about chicks who used the gro out hair oil and the lip smacking and saying ummmmm got on my last nerve. This video was a relief and informative. I thought you did a really good job. :D
I love all the tips you gave....much more comforting and realistic compared to the 'tips' of putting monistat in your hair lol. And I really like that you mentioned asking for help and guidance from God :)....thanks again for this awesome advice, God bless you!
I was doing some of this but not all of it. I am going to try it for thirty days and will share the results later. I ordered everything and will start on July 10th to give my products a chance to come in the mail. After 30 days, I will let you know. Keep me in prayer. Thank you for sharing. I am a believer that God gives us instructions to do things and I believe he had me to listen to your video to learn how to grow my hair as well. Thank you!
Gud video what a blessing u mentioned not making our hair our God we dnt wanna become engrossed to that point thanks for the healthy tips I'm gonna get the jbco and the multivitamin and drink more water
Scalp massages are sooo good, both for encouraging blood flow to the scalp, like you mentioned, but also good for relaxation and stress. What a wonderful way to give yourself a little pampering. :)
So happy I found your channel! I noticed last week that i too have a balding crown :( similar to your experience from a picture a friend took... Im going to be giving castor oil a go and stop wearing my hair in buns since Iv done this for years and abused my hair, started taking care of my hair with no heat for about 2 years and its only now Im seeing the damage of all those years... Thank you for this video, and your super pretty too!!! :)
Great video!! Thanks so much. I love how you mentioned praying about this journey and not making hair a god by obsessing over it. Anything we put before the Lord as an idol we stand to lose so I am in total agreement. I too prayed as I started my hair journey 2 weeks ago. I have the emu and jbco and will use it more often and try the vitamins also. God bless you and all the best!
Thank you for the great info. Praise God that he is in your life, I am so happy to see your results, I've been doing the same as u mentioned and it really works eating healthy and just making your body healthy inside and out. Putting the Lord 1st above it all key. God Bless keep doing a great work!
I love, love the thoroughness of your videos! This is very educational. Evaluation of our diets and our exercise habits is great. Good blood flow is critical. You are a catalyst in this learning process about my hair. Thanks so much! Glad I found your videos and subscribed. Bless you; be encouraged!
the BEST PART of this your video is that you put GOD FIRST.. that was sooo encouraging for me.. thank you for sharing...love yah.. ;)

First tip is THE Best! Thank you for reminding us all on our hair journeys to not idolize our hair but put God first.

you're not alone I'm 25 and I'm losing my hair, hope this process works for both of us.

Minoval oil (any black hair supply store) twice daily. Biotin (3 to 4 pills) a day will have your hair growing like weeds! : )

Stress was killing my hair. My scalp was oily, my hair was thin and it felt a lot in the shower. I wet to the dermatologist and she gave me this directions: exercise half an hour every day to help controlling my stress levels. Wash the hair every day instead of doing it every other day or every other two days (the natural oils were doing more harm than good) and stop pulling the hair up.
Thanks for your advice, I'm sure they will be very helpful.
God bless you
Why did your doctor say pulling your hair up is bad? I wear a bun everyday for work and I never thought it would be bad for my thinning hair.
stephjarr well you add extra stress to the strand and the scalp. Have you notice it hurts a bit or feels funny when you let your hair down? That is not very good for the roots because you are actually pulling them out. The younger strands (the new hair) are delicate and can be pulled our easily, specially if you have an oily scalp like me. The excess oil lubricates the follicle (I'm not sure if it's spelled correctly, sorry) and makes it extra vulnerable and easy to pull out. So my doctor said be careful with the updos.
I haven't had a perm in over 3 to 4 years I have edges that are a little thin but mostly I have further up close to the center on each side of the middle of my head little hairs but they never seem to grow thick and right in the center front the hair never grows past my nose and its thin to the crown so I'm glad to know your here because I was truly going back to a perm even though perms and color seem to swell me up now so I haven't wanted to put anything that's going to make it worst on my hair. I am older and diabetic but am will to try these things. Have a happy, safe day.
Thank you for sharing your video and you healthy hair journey!! You by far have the best natural hair regimen that I've seen that I am going to follow. I was very hesitant about the Monistat procedure that I know many black women are using and I didn't want to use that. Again, thank you. After my results I will share.
You come across as a very sincere person. I'm glad I came across your page. Stay blessed!
I love your attitude and positivity about this, I think that is as much help to me, if not more, than any of the tips - which I'm going to start trying. Thank you so much.
amen I'm glad God has blessed you with diligence and knowledge
yes, prayer, thanks for putting God first...will keep ya posted...
i subscribed as soon as i noticed she actually does reasearch . sounds just like me right now I've been looking everywhere to find how to make my balding crown grow . i have a condition where i pull my hair out and it has gotten really really bad but im really going to pray about this , eat more healthier and also take my vitamins I've already been trying to drink more water and exercise so i guess when i find the time ill upload videos of how its coming along for me . thank you so much :)
I loved this video! My edges are thinning from months of tight buns and ponytails (the stay at home mom style). I'm definitely going to try your tips! Thanks!
thank you so much for this video!
Your hair is beautiful and so are you!
Thank you darling!!!
Thank you for. Putting God first Is encouraging
Thanks for posting this. I'm definitely going to try some of the things you've mentioned. I'm suffering from hair loss (male pattern baldness) due to PCOS and it's extremely demoralising as I once had long THICK strands of unmanageable hair. I read in many places that women who lose their hair due to PCOS will never be able to grow their hair back because their effected hair follicles are dead, I'm not willing to give up just yet. So once again thank you for sharing your experience with us.
:)
hi. have you recovered?
You are such a blessing. 1st what you said about making your hair your God. I was beginning to do that. Thank you for bringing me back girl. 2nd that there's hope for my bald spot. I just noticed how I have a pretty large on in the front of my head. This gives me hope that I can grow the hair back. Thank you, and be blessed.
Grounded flaxseed is better for your body due to the Omega 3s. Great in smoothies. I appreciate your video! I think the foods we eat can lead to the hormonal imbalances which can cause the hair loss.
How do you roller set your hair?
Awesome, thank you so much for the advice. My boyfriend started balding and It has really messed with his self-esteem. I remind him everyday that with or without hair he still looks good but these tips will really help. :)
You're beautiful and your skin just has healthy glow to it too 💜
Peace sis! You did an excellent job of presenting the information in your video. May I add detoxing the body with a cleanse. Ridding the body of toxins will improve absorption of those wonderful nutrients you’ve mentioned! Dietary changes involving nutrient dense foods render better results in a clean body. Blessings to you and thanks for the awesome reminders!
Thanks Shalena for sharing. Very informative. Best shared information for growing healthy hair from within. God bless.
thank you for sharing your journey with us as well as the great tips. your results are amazing! God bless!
I too, want to applaud you for putting God first because prayer changes EVERYTHING!! Also, thank you for sharing your story as well as your video of your journey. I've been praying for God to help me with my hair thinning and eventually going bald in some areas. This has truly taken a toll on my self-esteem. I've asked beauticians as well as went to see a dermatologist. The beautician just was taking my money but not really helping me and the dermatologist ran a bunch of tests checking my thyroid, testosterone levels, etc. and they were all fine. I've had people tell me a bunch of products to use but not how to use them and I'm sick of just throwing money away. I'm going to try everything that you have said on here including changing my diet and exercise and I hope it goes well for me like it did for you☺️. Be Blessed and keep doing what you are doing to help women like me. Thank you again. 😌
Your video is very inspirational...Yes always put God first i recently had a weave dat left my edges real thin & one side bald..Its a lesson learned i will take da steps of wut u suggested & most defintley da oil for my edges...Praying dat it works because i do like to wear my hair but imma have to wait till i get dem to grow bk...THANKS ALOTT!!
I love when young people, like yourself, discover the gifts of mother nature....
I'm just wondering why people come on a video about improving self and have hateful, mean, ugly things to say? OAN: Everything you stated is correct. It is inside out first ! Keep up the great work and I'm glad your hair grew back!
Oh I love what you said about God and about health and I just loved the whole video. I was watching a lot of hair videos about chicks who used the gro out hair oil and the lip smacking and saying ummmmm got on my last nerve. This video was a relief and informative. I thought you did a really good job. :D
I love all the tips you gave....much more comforting and realistic compared to the 'tips' of putting monistat in your hair lol. And I really like that you mentioned asking for help and guidance from God :)....thanks again for this awesome advice, God bless you!
I was doing some of this but not all of it. I am going to try it for thirty days and will share the results later. I ordered everything and will start on July 10th to give my products a chance to come in the mail. After 30 days, I will let you know. Keep me in prayer. Thank you for sharing. I am a believer that God gives us instructions to do things and I believe he had me to listen to your video to learn how to grow my hair as well. Thank you!
beverly hughes update?

Keshia o
lovely hair and good information on hair care for damaged or balding hair.
I will do a tutorial for this hairstyle. I call it the Shalena DIVA curly. It's simply a roller set.
Thank you so much for the video and all the research, I've got thinning on my temples, I'm going to try your regimen!
Scalp massages are sooo good, both for encouraging blood flow to the scalp, like you mentioned, but also good for relaxation and stress. What a wonderful way to give yourself a little pampering. :)
Excellent video! You've given a lot of women hope!
Very inspirational video! My crown is thin and breaking so I will incorporate some of the tips you gave. Thanks!
Wow, I enjoyed your video. I am thankful for your post and information you shared!
Great knowledge my sister keep people informed
Amen, sister ! Enjoyed this tremendously. Peace and Blessings...
this is beautiful and so are you. Thank you for this informative video and God bless you and yours.
Awww thank you!!!! You encouraged me to create more videos!!!
Girrrrrlllllll... tell me about it. This hair journey has truly blessed me. I'm grateful.
So happy I found your channel! I noticed last week that i too have a balding crown :( similar to your experience from a picture a friend took... Im going to be giving castor oil a go and stop wearing my hair in buns since Iv done this for years and abused my hair, started taking care of my hair with no heat for about 2 years and its only now Im seeing the damage of all those years... Thank you for this video, and your super pretty too!!! :)
I really love these tips and I am definitely going to continue to grow my hair long. Very motivating, thanks.
Wow, incredible results, and you are cute as can be!! Thank you for sharing your experience and regimen with everyone.
Your results are amazing! Thanks for the tips!
Great video!! Thanks so much. I love how you mentioned praying about this journey and not making hair a god by obsessing over it. Anything we put before the Lord as an idol we stand to lose so I am in total agreement. I too prayed as I started my hair journey 2 weeks ago. I have the emu and jbco and will use it more often and try the vitamins also. God bless you and all the best!
Thank u. I am hopeful now. Just starting to take care of my bald spots and contemplating chopping. Wish me luck.....
WOW!!! Thats a big difference. Thank you for the tips.
Thank you for the great info. Praise God that he is in your life, I am so happy to see your results, I've been doing the same as u mentioned and it really works eating healthy and just making your body healthy inside and out. Putting the Lord 1st above it all key. God Bless keep doing a great work!
Sometimes I see me self getting obsessed with healthy hair, you just reminded me ...I need that !!!!
I love, love the thoroughness of your videos! This is very educational. Evaluation of our diets and our exercise habits is great. Good blood flow is critical. You are a catalyst in this learning process about my hair. Thanks so much! Glad I found your videos and subscribed. Bless you; be encouraged!
Thankyou for this video =) i've been wanting to try black castor oil and i learned from this!
