- It's so GOOD to be back!! I've missed you guys so much! This video was inspired by all the traveling I did last month! There were a lot of events, so I had to be prepared for any natural hair disasters I might come across! I've made some mistakes along the way, but I learned some great tips on how to organize my luggage and what to pack for my natural hair, as well as how to wear my hair to the airport! I hope this helps you pack for your next vacation or big event!

You have got to be the ONLY hair vlogger who makes videos that are USEFUL in the real world (work hairstyles, graduation and natural hair, traveling w/ natural hair, etc). It definitely sets you apart from the rest. Thanks for this video Nap!!
Hey girl ! You may not remember, but when u came to Atlanta, u met a client of mine. You complimented her crochet braids & even assumed it was her natural hair haha... I just wanted to say hi & thank you soooo much for complimenting my work !! When she told me i was legit freaking out & it was so cool knowing that somebody I watch all the time actually liked MY hairstyling work, it was just surreal to me lol. You look gorgeous btw !! :D

***** Omg girl i have MISSED YOU ! Soo happy to c a vid from you. I have been waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting........ and WAITING lol on 1. I said well i guess she's not doing anymore lol. Im going to watch the vid n a sec , but i had to get this out first lol.
K play |> (that's supposed to b like the play button lol )
Glad your back
You brought along electronics like a blow-dryer (and a curling wand), but keep in mind that the voltage here in Europe is 220 and not 110 as it in in the US. You could break your electronics that way if they're not dual voltage...:-)
Ah! Thank you!! ***** I thought all I needed was the adapter! Good thing I didn't need to use it then! I'll be sure to check the voltage of the electronics I bring while traveling to Europe next time! Thanks!!
Edit: If you have a carry-on and know for sure you'll need to use conditioner, pack 2 or 3 of those 4oz bottles... I usually just check my full-size conditioner if I know I'll need to use it, and only put a container in my carry-on "for emergencies." Xo!
***** how long can your flax seed gel sit out of the fridge before it's no good.
ENJOY these useful tips I picked up while traveling this past month! NEW Video is Up! #NaturalHair
fyi whitney, tsa has changed it policies because of reported incidents of only checking Black women's hair and no one else's. black women are probably the least likely demographic in america to be carrying weapons on planes. just saying.
makes me happy to see another of your videos......watch them religiously......
Omg whitney the struggle is real with bantu knots its so hard to leave the house with them
***** Ok...you can come up for breath now !! LoL...AwesoMe TiPs !!! (and WelcoMe BaCk !!!) (◕‿-)
Thanks, ***** I'm going on a trip soon! Your traveling tips will make life sooooo much easier for me. Thanks again for sharing!
jeez your extremely beautiful, with an amazing smile and energy
She is.
jay Parker Thank you for the sweet comment!!
I love your intros so much! Your sharp editing skills always have me drooling in admiration... Okay, maybe I don't drool, but I'm like, wow, Miss Whitney can really get it!
Lol! Hey Sava ! Hope you're well!! Thank you!!
***** Hey Whitney! Thanks for replying!
I know this vid is old but I hope you or anyone traveling will be able to use this travel hack: cut up little squares of plastic bag and put them over the bottle opening and then screw the top on. For extra protection I put some tape over the lid. Did this for all my liquids, especially my oils with applicator tops. It works, and definitely kept me from worrying about them.
thanks for that 👍
This video came just in time! I'm traveling to Miami soon and I was freaking out about whether I should get a protective style or not, because I really didn't want to, but I also didn't want to check my bag. I never knew there was a size limit, I thought I just couldn't bring those products in a carry-on at all (I don't fly often lol). So happy you made this video, it helped so much!
Miss you man!!! It's so refreshing to see you wear your hair out. Your hair is beautiful and so is your personality! I'm so happy to see you traveling more and marketing your self! You practically started this natural hair care community. You're awesome!!
I took a two week to Ethiopia and only took a brush! Horrible idea. Thanks! Will definitely use these tips!
CopperColoredLifestyle94 Lol! Happy to help!
My afro is a mini version of yours lol.
Absolutely adorable 😊
Thank you both 😘😘
First, I just have to say I absolutely love how this wash and go worked for you. Bangs are your best friend lol! And just a quick tip for avoiding spillage a la pinterest: rather than double bagging each product, stretch a bit of plastic wrap over the rim and then cap/cover. That way you won't waste bags/literally NO possibility of spilling =]
I absolutely LOVE the ombré effect your highlights are adding to your hair! Thanks for the tips and glad to have you back!
That Wash N' Go you're rocking right now its giving me LIFE! YESS!
happy 200th video Whitney! :D yay!
Xo!! Thank you!!
Your hair and color is way more amazing now than it was before. Please tell us what's different. WOW!BANGING GIRL!
I love The Container Store here in L.A. It is fabulous for traveling and just getting organized. I go there and eye stuff for the life I do not have yet! Girl, you pack a lot of stuff. I did a rode trip to Arizona recently from L.A. and back for three days.I took one small toiletry bag: a comb, scrunchies, toothpaste, toothbrush, spray bottle, jojoba oil (dual purpose) & head rag! Oh, and a fww clothes. LOL. I am a minimalist except in words! All that other stuff is too much. This hairstyle you are wearing in this video is my FAVORITE. The others are cute, I guess, but this style is natural hair at its best!
THAT WASH N GO JUST GAVE ME LIFE
Also don't forget to make sure your hair is super moisturized! Sometimes I travel with straight hair or a blow out because my hair gets super dry and brittle, especially from having my head against the seat. Dried out plane hair is the absolute worst!
Whit that wash and go is looking epic. I've traveled with my longer hair loose maybe once :-/. Great helpful video.
Lol! Thanks glamazini ! I feel you! It can be a pain! Although a twist out can be pretty simple! Xo!
so glad you're back, and I love the way your color is growing out! Your vision is now coming alive! lol
Haha! Thank you RaenaJenks !! I'm so happy it's growing out! Xo!
Natural85 I wanted to tell you I appreciate all the blogs that you do with the natural hair. I have the same hair pattern as you and you have helped me a lot on how to maintain a nice and heathy hair for the natural. Me and my mom talk about how you are a great example for women who need help with their natural hair and when you explain stuff its very simple and not hard at all your styles be on point and your hair is looking more beautiful and healthy because you use homemade simple stuff that is good for the natural hair. I notice too that when you went to try the products and then you went to homemade I seen a big difference and the difference is that your hair likes natural stuff it flourished from your homemade stuff but with the products it didn't and that showed me something. Keep up the great work at what your doing you are a very hard worker and a great fantastic mother with a great attitude and fun personality and Olivia is very blessed to have such a great mother like you and dad too can't forget felipi as well he is a great father the fact that his father wasn't in his life as much and he wants to be in every step of his daughter life is amazing I wish all dads were like that. Olivia is very smart for her age as she gets older I hope she can look back at all these blogs you guy made and said wow I have too awesome parents who set such positive examples. Much love from Qee 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Yes! Carry-ons are so important. Hair products, a change of clothes, and all the necessities! You'd hate to ruin your vacay, because you can't get to your luggage immediately, for whatever reason, and you don't even have the basics on you!
I hope you read this... But I'm 17 and I've been natural all my life. I always keep my hair straight, not because I want to but because I've never really knew what to do with my natural hair. I've tried twist outs in so many ways and they never work, but I tried the one you did when your hair was much shorter in one of your earlier videos where you twist and grab hair so you don't have to separate as much. It was kind of like a flat twist but not really lol. Well I did that and... I FINALLY GOT IT! I found the twist out that works for me, and I'm going to try to wear my hair natural more often. I just wanted to say thank you !!! I love your videos and your hair I hope mine can be like your done day !!
Gorgeous! With the highlights on your hair all I can see are the beautiful Aborigines of Australia! Love it!
Such beautiful hair. You're such a inspiration and the reason I went natural. Your videos gave me strength :)
Welcome back we missed u!! 😄😄😙🙌🎉🎊🎉🎊
Xo!! Thank you!! I missed you guys too!!
I traveled a lot in March too but I just brought a small conditioner and used it to cowash and as a styler. Works pretty well as long as you remember to pack tools/ a scarf
Looking at all of the hair stuff you pack, I throw some box braids in my hair and call it a day when I travel LOL. That way I don't have to worry about additional hair stuff. Even when I was relaxed, I threw braids in. Since you had to do a hair show, it made sense to have that stuff because people would be expecting your hair to be out.
Hey Whitney love the washngo in this video hope to see an updated washngo soon
Good to see u back
Love from Paris
I travel a lot of work (consulting), this is so helpful! Happy to have you back Whit!! :)
this wash and go is legit life, like lifeeeeeee
Her, Her Outfit, Her Hair, and her attitude are GOALS 😍😍
This is coming right on time as I'll be traveling quite a bit over the next 6 months or so (including Paris...so excited!). One thing re overseas travel is to check for voltage conversions and pack appropriate appliances or a converter. Also I agree with being prepared for the worst esp. if you're traveling for business. Now I'm going to check out your Paris video... :)
Her hair has grown out and now her highlight look perfect just like she said it would! :D Looking great Whitney!!!
Your hair looks amazing Whit. I'm the same way when I travel with any type of oil based products or products that can spill. Welcome back!!!
You are looking gorgeous while being adventurous. Wonderful tips and styles.
Welcome Back!! and thanks so much for the travel tips because I have natural hair as well and I'm travelling in 2 weeks and didn't know how much hair products I should pack in my carry-on and suitcase so thank you, thank you this is a MAJOR help. Love you and your videos are amazing also you're really funny too Enjoy your day :):)
Now that your hair is growing out, the color looks much better than when you initially got it done. I think when you grow out your natural hair a little more and cut off a little more color the look will look epic!
You are so great! Literally anything I could think of needing help with you have a vid for and things I would have never even thought of to! ily
gosh your cure 0:16. seriously my favorite youtuber. your videos are so helpful. thanks love
+PictureMeNatural **cute!
Your wash and go, looks amazing !!! oh first comment: woot woot
Hey Dudegrowing NapsBlog ! Thank you! Xo!
***** You're welcome !!!! I love how at every step i was like " yeah obvious" but i never thought about any of these tips. Always a step ahead whitney
OMG, this video is the best!!! I'm traveling to Europe soon and I've been sort of worrying and obsessing because I was determined to go totally minimalist and not over pack by traveling with only 2 carry-on bags. But then it dawned on me, I'm gonna be gone for 2 whole weeks so I will need to pack more hair products! Meaning my conditioner for co-washing (big Trader Joes Tea Tree conditioner bottle) and my shea moisture leave in, my oils, spritz bottle, large tooth comb, stretchies and bands, rod rollers, I mean the list just keeps growing! So, as much as I want to go to Europe with only 2 carry-ons, I will HAVE to check a bag so I can bring larger bottles for my hair stuff. Not to mention I need to bring shower gel and lotion. Definitely need to check a bag in!! This video is great. I was wondering how other naturals were traveling!! :-)
i really love her hair like this. It is my fav so far
I missed u Whitney u be killing DAT wash n go now girl lookin gd boo boo and my son kam'ron says to tell you hi he watches your dearnaptural channel with me lol love ya
Yay!!! Welcome back!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Welcome back!!!! Truly missed you on the hair vlog!!! Great vid, thx for the tips!!
I'm glad you did this video because when I was traveling to Thailand for a month last year there were not any natural hair videos to give me ideas of what to take. Luckily I over packed hair stuff and it went well but there were no videos like this. Helpful video.
I love your hair here! The color looks so nice with your skin, especially as it gets warmer out!
We missed you Whitney! I was so excited when I got the notification that your new videos were up!! Thank you for taking the time to produce excellent videos for us!! xoxo
Yessss! Welcome Back t this channel Whitney LOL! Refreshing and informative as always - these are great tips and definite add-ons to what I currently do for traveling!!
Welcome back Whitney !!! It felt like you were gone forever 😟. Thanks for the great traveling tips 😊
Happy to see you back Whitney, missed you and the family. Love all of your videos and vlogs. :)
So glad you made it home safe!!! Welcome back!!☺️
YES!!! I've been waiting on a video like this. Traveling with natural hair can be a hassle sometimes.
Your wash-n-go looks very nice! I finally got the courage to wear a wash 'n' go this year after seeing a video on you tube about conditioning your hair for it. If not for your advice on the Trader Joe's Tingle conditioner I would have not be able to do it. That stuff is amazing and thanks for the tip. I saw you packed it in your bag to take with you traveling. I will be traveling soon and your tips are really awesome. I am sure I can still use it for a road trip.
i am so glad u r back i missed seeing your videos. cant wait to see more.
Very nice Whitney. Happy your back safe.
Yay! You are back! We missed you!!
XO❤️
I see your diva cut is growing out beautiful as always
I love your videos! You are such a sweet and genuine person (I can just tell). Oh and I love that necklace you have on! I think you said it was a gift from someone. I've noticed you've worn it in some of your latest videos it's so versatile! Love love loveee !!
The natural hair queen is back.....
Loving the Free People sweaters *****
I used to pack just like that......not anymore, and hopefully never again. LOL I'd rather have extra shoe options. I always do my hair before I leave and if I need a fall back style, it's always a puff, the puff never fails. If I were traveling to a natural hair event, I could see how all of that may be necessary though. I've been loving your new adventurous hair styles ;)
This was sooo useful! I'm getting prepared to go on a business trio and was thinking "what about my hair stuff?!" So, super good tips!! Thanks, as usual, Whitney! Glad you're back!
Super useful!! Thanks for sharing Whitney!!! You look gorgeous and I love your hair like that!!! I'm assuming it's a wash n go? Idk but whatever it is the curls are popping!! Glad you're back, you were missed😊
You are well traveled and you are a strategic packer. Excellent tips.
I legit LOVE your hair!
Another tip is to keep in mind where you are going. For example I'm from Canada and if I'm going to the states I'll skip all the hair products entirely and just buy something when I get there. Cheaper and leaves more space in my carry on
Yay! This is perfect. I'm going to Ecuador for two months this summer and I really wanted information on how to have natural hair while traveling. This couldn't have come at a better time! :)
I've decided to long term transition back to my natural hair. I love your videos. Keep up the good work! Love the styles and tips.
Love this video, Whitney. Glad to see you're back!
I just big chopped my hair after 10 months of transitioning and I was practically drooling over your hair the entire video. I can't wait until mine gets that long
I know the girl who gave you that necklace in Atlanta is feeling good seeing you wear it to your event in Paris and several of your videos! I bet she has sold several!
I'm sooooo glad you're back! Great tips for travel!
Great video! Your energy in the video was amazing!
Oh how I hate traveling with my hair...I usually go to take a nap and by the time the flight is done...my hair is super flat in the back. I learn never to travel with big hair. You look fabulous by the way!
Great vid but I was like OH NO you missed the concert. lol
For those doing the hostelling thing in Europe(especially in the summer): protective styling is your friend! Style your twists AND set a neat bantu knot- You can wear the twists for a couple of days, then let your hair out for another couple of days and so on. Now, if you are in France- remember that Paris is the headquarters for a lot of brands, including L'Oreal, which just bought controlling interest in Carol's Daughter. You can get AMAZEBALLS brands right there in Paris for very little money. In some cases you can get the same stuff there that you can find here. So don' worry about running out of product.
Your hair looks amazing!!! :)
Great to see you back, Whitney! Thanks for the tips. My problem when traveling for one or two nights, let alone when I travel abroad is that I need a whole suitcase for toiletries, hair products, etc. I've been trying to 'downsize things' and some of your good travel tips got me wanting to add a few things! 😊 Yikes!!!
Well, welcome back! I had said to myself yesterday that I hadn't seen a video from you in a long time. I know you had fun traveling. I'll have to take a look at your Paris vlog. Your outfit looked great as well as your hair (the intro pic). If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the light blue sweater/top? Thanks for posting. :-)
Welcome back and glad you had the opportunity to travel :)
Xo!! Thank you!!
you're *****
Go girl! I'm so proud of u and so happy u got to do all that traveling. It's so enriching to the sprit😊 thanks for these helpful tips too woot woot
Would you please do an updated video on this subject?
Now that your hair is so much longer, when going on vacation do you take less or more products & tools to take care of your hair?
Do you stick to a bun (high or low) or vary hairstyles?
Very helpful video Whitney. Thank you. Just one question. How were you able to take Flaxseed gel with you? Doesn't that need to be refrigerated? Or did you put something special in it to preserve it?
Traveling in July, thanks! Glad your back!
I'm so glad you're back!!! I wish I could wear a wash and go but my curl pattern is all over the place - a perfect coil here, a nearly straight strand there. Just can't do it. :(
I was going to comment that this is so much stuff, BUT thinking of when my husband and I travel to visit his family in the A for just a weekend, I definitely take a ton of stuff, too! Great organization tips!
I never actually thought about this. Thanks. I don't travel often but this would help when it's time.
Thanks for tips whitney! Your hair looks amazing in this video! to save some room in your packing, call the hotel and ask if they have blowdryers in the rooms! Most hotels now a days do!
Great video! I only travel now with a carry-on bag (and a large shoulder bag). I enjoy the challenge of getting through TSA with enough products for my hair. I pack pretty much how you do (organized and with the double bagging) and still have space for clothes, tech items, etc. Eagle Creek bags (from the Container Store) are a blessing for fitting everything in a smaller bag. Target and the Dollar Store supply my other necessities when it comes to bags. I don't pack my hairdryer anymore because the places I stay provide them in the bathrooms.
YT4Me57 Haha! Awesome! Yes!! The container store is amazing! The bags fit SO much in such a small space! For the times when I bring my blowdryer, I would love to leave it at home but a lot of hotels blowdryers are stuck on the wall, lol, so I don't want to be standing for an hour while my hair dries with the hooded dryer. BUT one option for me could be to call ahead of time and see if the blowdryer is mobile or not! Thanks for that! Xo!
***** ROTFLLL, I forgot about the hairdryer issue.. I certainly can see where that would be a problem!
Love your natural curl pattern!
Thx for the travel tips Whitney!! Please do a video on your wash n go, it looks great.
Also, I believe the TSA has stopped searching black women's hair. It was a whole big thing.
Wish this video was available before going to Disney. It was a real struggled. My natural hair reacted badly. Thanks again very informative as always.
Yes to this wash and go!!! Lol it reminded me a little of Whitney Houston in Cinderella
You can pack a curling rod I promise, They know what it is and if they check your bag they will let it go cause it's like any other hair styling tool 😊
Love the bangs, compliments your hair color ♥.
Awesome vid!! What is the name of your flexible hooded dryer? I need one badly
Whit, your hair is gorg! Thanks for the tips, but lawd, I'll just wear an updo😕
