    One mistake I made …I was protecting my ends, getting them clipped every 2 months but they were still splitting….realized that my high porous ends needed to be moisturized and sealed every 3 days (when I noticed them getting dry) as well as be protected. I hope this helps someone 😊

    I experienced hydral fatigue. That was a big mistake. When my hair was puffy and not defined I thought I needed more moisture. It wasn’t until my hair responded SO favorably to a henna treatment that I realized I needed more protein. Because I’m low porosity, I focused much more on moisture. But the last few months of last year, I really researched products that would help balance my routine, so I’m really trying to listen to what my hair needs this year.

    My mistake was taking hair skin and nail vitamins. I am post menopausal and have PCOS. taking the hair vitamins just added to. my facial hair problem. It's now at the point where even after removing the hair on my upper lip, it still looks like I have a mustache. 😢 Also, hair is still thinning on the crown.
    My big hair mistake was not adding hair oil to my regiment, after over 7 years of being natural. So no matter how much leave-in, curl definition cream, and water I used, my hair stayed dry. I just started using oil about 2-3 months ago, big difference with my hair dryness.
    I am over 65 years old.

      @TheMotherlove411 Your story sounds like mine. I'm 50+, post-menopausal and I have PCOS. I take GNC's MegaWoman vitamins. I friend recommended them over a decade ago and they work best for me. My crown area had always been thinner. But the older I get its looks like it's getting thinner. I've been using Kreyol Essence Haitian black castor oil and I've noticed a little growth. I just have to give it time and be consistent.
      All the best with your journey.

    A mistake that I’ve been doing for years and just realized about a year or two ago is ALWAYS wearing my hair in the pineapple. My crown started to break off and now I’m currently trying to get it back healthy. Hoping it’s not too late cause I used to scratch it a lot not knowing how that can make it even worse….

  • @user-eb5wq3vi2j

    My mistake was the whole time I've been natural in the last 8 years and using every oil under the sun for moisture, my hair never retained length and was always dry until I totally switched back to HAIR GREASE. I use shampoo and conditioners that DO NOT have any natural oils in them and I use leave in creams in which some have petrolatum and mineral oil in them. I have been elated to now see length retention for my thin strands, high porosity, 4b hair. I also had to find a gel which doesn't have any natural oils or aloe in it for my wash and gos. I also discovered that aloe products created protein buildup which had caused so many setbacks over the years. I am now starting to have hang time with my hair, finally. I do appreciate your knowledge and advice on caring for our hair.

    • @ebonywatson9939

      It is totally a game changer. I now see so many naturals who seem to have the same struggles as I did with dryness, and am always proned to tell them that they should give hair grease a try but I just keep it moving and hope they too will eventually figure it out. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    The mistake I made was letting a licensed cosmetologist takedown
    and then rebraid my hair with Kankrlon added every 3 weeks. I started with thick, neck length hair. 20 years later I have traction alopecia, thin areas of hair. I thought the so called protective style would grow my hair.

  • @Erudite48085
    @Erudite48085 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think I discovered a way to remoisturize and refresh my hair by "plopping," applying a moisturizer or spraying a curl refresher throughout the hair, put it in a pineapple, and sleep in a plastic cap. In the morning it's "wet"/damp, shake it out and go. Hair is refreshed and looks moisturized. I'm experimenting with using different products (curl creams with oils vs. liquid sprays without oils, etc). BUT my question is, is this bad for the hair? Will it cause "hydro fatigue?"

  • @kaelathompson2128
    @kaelathompson2128 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One of my mistakes definitely is not washing often. Sadly everytime I was my hair I get a head cold which basically means I get a headache for like 2 days after and I get congested as if it's a full blown cold. I've been told it's because I don't dry my hair properly, but I've been taking extra time to make sure that my scalp is completely dry but it's still happens. I'm not sure what to do about that as it prevent me from being regular with my wash days.

      Using steam for your hair is not bad, you can also apply your conditioner to your hair with a shower cap over it, if you would like extra protection for your hair, but if you have really dry hair, doing a steam treatment can be helpful.
