- In this second of three segments on the Native Hairstyles celebration at the Museum of Indian Arts and culture, a Hopi mother and daughter demonstrate and talk about the significance of the Hopi young girl's hairstyle.
We are so happy that so many people have enjoyed these hairstyle demonstrations, especially this Traditional Hopi one. We will not, however, tolerate hate speech of any kind on the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture's TH-cam channel. Anyone who engages in such behavior will be blocked and reported for hate speech to TH-cam immediately.
IndianArtsCulture missed one.
*Option!*
Use Coconut Oil - it is great for the hair and washes out way easier.
Fabulous Style - Very Attractive!
You could benefit from another set of hands towards the end - You did Great!!!
It's true, the right is ... NATIVE AMERICAN, NOT INDIAN. 👈
Please stop refereeing to us native Americans as Indians. This is the year 2020 please let's correct this so we can move on.
Very informative. So glad the First Americans are somehow managing to keep traditions alive in spite of all. Thank you.
I love that we not only got to see how it is done, but also learned about its background and meaning! Amazing and highly interesting, hopefully these cultural practices will continue to live on
I love listen about the *Native* *American* *Heritage* and their *Culture!* I could listen to this lovely lady talking about her Hopi Heritage all day long... Thank you for sharing with us...
Thank you for an inside look at the sovereign Hopi in Arizona. The squash-blossom hairstyle is beautiful with the very black hair making the style even more striking.
So beautiful! I see where Star Wars gets their hair inspiration from. It's wonderful to see how these traditions are being shared and recorded!
I was thinking the same thing! Padme has a style based on this when she and Anakin reunite in Revenge of the Sith close to the beginning, which is ironic considering she's a married woman about to have twins. :)
Her enormous and most elaborate hairstyle was based off of the last queen of Mongolia.
I remember reading that the Star Wars creator George Lucas said that the revolution-era women of Mexico (also known as soldaderas) inspired Princess Leia's hairstyle. 🇲🇽💯
Nice to see this tradition of the Hopi that I admire. Thanks for putting this out on the net.
Love learning about the hairstyles and traditions of the Hopi women. Just beautiful!
I really love to learn more. Please share more of your culture. THE WORLD NEEDS TO SEE!!!
Real kind and genuine people...Lots of Respect to all original people of This continent called America.
Hopi is who I grew up with most in Tucson, AZ. Loved hearing the native stories.
That's my sister Twila and her daughter
How wonderful to see her doing her daughter's hair in this traditional way. I really enjoyed this video.
Your sister and niece are two beautiful and lovely women and I could listen to your sister talk about y'all's Hopi heritage all day long.. Thank you for sharing...
Te ves mal boludo das wea, mejor no hablas nada.
Beautiful women! ☺
@Wen,
Bless you and all your relations!
🙏
I soooo admire how the Native people kept there culture alive despite ALL they were put through. Language, customs,oral history etc. I wish I could say the same. There is only so much I can pass on.
I'm mik'maq but I have such an appreciation for all my sisters and brothers but the Hopi ,Navajo and black feet hold a special place in my heart ❤️
Prrrrrrrrrrrurrrr 👅👎
YR! 😀👅👎🏽
You are beautiful im 100% native american like most bolivians who are not blanco like most mainland mexico and central america peru bolvia is 100% red american indigenous never was blancoid more like rojoid americoid native american lol man they try too hard nowadays
Blackfoot not feet
Wow Native women and black women both send our girls through it when it comes to hair! 😂 But Cornrows or twist it's all beautiful. Thx for sharing.
Black people and Native people are nothing alike
@@danhill2543 stop harassing people!!
@@ElleBellsChannel how am I harassing you
In some instances we are the same people
Dan Hill cultures and traditions ARE nothing alike...but as people we share horrendous trauma that goes deep no outsider can understand. Tribes all over the “U.s” were and ARE allies to Black people..
Thank you for sharing your beautiful native traditions beautiful love from Australia
Beautiful hair style and so appreciated learning the meaning behind it.
I'm Navajo..Hopi life's beautiful 🌹
All Dine I've met were good people, and Hopi do indeed have a beautiful way.
I’m thankful for the respect you’ve shown for us. We’ve had great troubles between our peoples and some still hold great anger. But I believe all people should stand together and let the past be the past. So thank you
I went to grade school in Phoenix with Hopi and Navajo kids and they could really dance when they demonstrated the hoop dance at school assembly with full feathers. I forget the actual name for that dance but I couldn't believe kids my own age could dance like that.
Thank You for sharing..Stay Safe in 2021
Love this video. Shebdid a great job and was even able to,give a little background on the young girls ceremony.
Fantastic demonstration and explanations of the traditions and symbolism behind the hairstyles!

Menstruation is so stigmatized in white Western culture, it's too bad there isn't a tradition like this to celebrate when a girl reaches puberty rather than treat it like something embarrassing or shameful.
Thankfully we are coming out of it. Even more and more men are embracing it. It took a very long time but we're getting it there
Is it? Lol. Not in my family.
@Night but is the "quarantine" for spiritual reasons (to become one with the mother spirit of Earth) or is it a different reason? I've watched some other tribes and their puberty rituals, one is a special hut made just for spiritual reasons and nobody is allowed inside unless they're from that tribe. When the sun starts to rise the young lady will then run towards the sun.
In my tribe (Navajo) we celebrate female puberty that lasts a week. Its a family and extended family effort. All for that delicious blue/yellow corn cake baked over night in the ground about 5 feet wide in circumference.
@@PJPlatero what a positive and tasty way for a girl to enter womanhood!
I love the Indian culture ....I wish they were treated better, our government are the traders and the liars,killers and thieves.and I hope that the lives of all these tribes can become strong again.
Tink Ie it is becoming stronger, but the government is still hurting, lying and taking land that has been treatied to them
Tink le ... cierto, que se vuelvan fuertes otra vez 👍👏👏👏👏
You mean Native American culture. India is on a whole other continent.
It is awesome you love it! But please do not use the word Indian. As we are Native American or Indigenous. Colombus thought he was in India, when he arrived in America so a lot of people still confuse that word.
Many countries were conquered by people. They lost, get over it....
I just found this channel this morning. Thank you so much for all this beautiful knowledge. I feel so blessed. Many blessings 😌
I'm part native my grandfather is pretty dark so I'd say I'm at least around a quarter. We don't talk much but he always said we are Cherokee. I've always taken anything I can learn to heart since I don't see him often and my mother isn't very into our culture. So I appreciate these videos very much even tho I am not Hopi myself. I've learned a bit from my fiance tho who is also Cherokee and his family is very close to the culture as well. Anyway long story short, thank you!
I have 3 tribes in me. I appear white and have an English/German name. I met a Shawnee man who explained to me that I should never say that I am only part Native American. The American government didn't just kill as many of the first people as possible, they also made laws saying that native people couldn't own land, couldn't keep their children, couldn't speak their language. So if you have ancestors who were of the first people you should claim it proudly and learn about their culture in order for to not let them extinguish the first people. This moved me so deeply. While there is nothing wrong with embracing your other heritage, you should embrace all of your heritage. May we all be one.
70 WolfNippleChips , Native American folks are so smart and resourceful, who lived off their beautiful land. My heart aches for the trauma you have experienced, which in so many ways still persists. May God keep you safe & bless you all. ❤️🙏🙏🙏
My grandmother was native although i dont know the tribe/s (she was adopted as a kid but she did met her parents when shes older and now shes kinda dead)
Your hair and daughter is very beautiful i am Cherokee love all my native brothers and sisters ❤
I love the Cherokee and all my Native American brothers and sisters. We are still here despite us barely being 3% of the american population.
This video was fantastic So interesting and beautiful
So much knowledge this lady explained about the hair style May all the Natives of this country prosper and never loose their traditions😍
I like the stories and the hair style. I love the traditions being passed down. Good vid. Ty✨✨✨
I had to watch again its so beautiful and spiritual❤Touch my soul in the way i cant describe💕Thank you again for sharing with us❤
Beautiful to hear your language! Thank you so much for sharing.
Please keep the traditions alive Nd thriving!! Please teach your young generation to carry on them!!!
I stumbled upon this channel, and now I'm stuck! Oh, I'm totally enjoying learning all about your culture! Blessings to you all, and thank you for sharing this rich knowledge with the world. Watching this young lady sit patiently getting her hair done reminded me of sitting for my mother in the morning, while she put two french braids in my long hair. She pulled very tightly, also. But, those braids didn't come down all day!
Just wished the camera was in the front of this lady instead of watching her back. 😔
The Native culture is so meaningful and respectful. We all need to learn from them!

Beautiful culture,most respected. Explanation with some laughter, just good.Watching now 09.03.20 in PNG.
Absolutely beautiful and I learned so much. I look forward to learning more.
Watching this in 2018, very informative video, shame the person filming it didn't have a better view .... Thank you for sharing tho
I love this I remember being young with almost black hair, and remember some of the great aunts that had thier hair fixed like this, very beautiful!
Thank you for sharing this with us! And for sharing such a wonderful history of the hairstyles. I had no idea different hairstyles signified different life stages. Such lovely ceremony for each chapter of life. 💚
Thank you for very interesting video. I love Native American people, music, culture. God bless Indians. Best regards from Poland🇵🇱. 👍😊💖
I literally just found out about this hairstyle today and i am in love with it, its so beautiful!!
She’s a beautiful young maiden!! Love the Native American Culture!!
Beautiful demonstration. Us native ladies always have pretty hair.
Se ve muy guapa. 👍
My hair is down to the lowest part of my back now. I'm going to let it keep growing. Two years ago, the day after Xmas, I cut it almost up to my shoulders. Within a week, I hated it. Luckily, it grows fast. I've only trimmed it a few times to even the ends. Love to see how they do these traditional styles.
I believe the enemy hates anyone that have identity of who they are and culture background.
Thank you all for sharing. I think the meaning of hair representing the rain is beautiful. Such great topic.
I am so happy that native traditions are being passed on. Unfortunately my grandfather would not let his children's follow his mother's traditions as a Cherokee.
Osiyo, it's sad to loose the ancestors ways. Many have suffered trying to keep them. Tears in the wind.
Beautiful people and beautiful culture, hope you will never lose your culture and teach us your wisdom.
Thank you for a very interesting program
Warm Greetings to my northern Native American brothers and sisters from a Quechua brother, we are one race, one people.
Native Americans are one race. Borders will not divide us.
Beautiful Hair style wow ! :)
Just so amazing & an honor to see
I was privileged to visit second Mesa or I bought a cottonwood Tewa girl carved by a young lady still have it still love it still wish I was on second Mesa
I love the tradition of giving people multiple names throughout their lives
The indian hair is so beautifull,i use my black hair long n smooth because im so proud of my brazilian indian decendence,im so glad to has a true indian hair.
the correct is ... Native American, not Indian.
I never knew just thought they all took great care of their hair.It was so interesting thank you for showing us
i wish they had a different angle so her back isn't blocking the hair. but thank you. all the information was the best!
Hey lady nice video thanks for sharing I'm Jonell Adams daughter very helpful again thanks
My daughter is part American Indian from her paternal grandmothers side. They came from Leni Lenape In Pennsylvania
She has the thick dark straight Hair.
I was a tom boy and had no clue how to even do a basic braid when I first had her
My daughters hair is so beautiful I let it grow down to her rear end and not only did I learn how to do a basic braid but I learned how to do more complicated ones.
But her hair down was always my favorite and the first thing everyone noticed about her was her hair.
I love my native American Indian people,so much we are so special,unique and creative,I'm a native American chick that's mixed,and I'm so proud of my people.i wouldn't do this look on me, lol lol but everyone is different but she's right though back then and sometimes now they didn't ever cut there hair that's way some native Indian women had and have hair down to there hips,knees,calf,ankle and sometimes to the floor.our power,wisdom,beauty and strength is in our hair even in my native American family the boys and men have long hair to,but not aslong as the women.love ❤ you Hopi brothers and sisters.Indian power.
Indian sage -I think ya'll people's are the coolest in the world..4 real:)
Women you are Native our DNA is Native to this Continent. not from India
Is NATIVE AMERICAN POWER.
Wow!! I was wondering how this was done. Your history is amazing, thankyou for sharing.
Thank you for very interesting program
Beautiful !! 🙏💗
Beautiful. I love this!
Mad respect to your beautiful culture.
Thank you so much for sharing your traditions
Thank you for the video. Now I know how to do this to my Hopi dolls.
Thank you! I have always wondered how this was done!
watching this heals part of me, im only native on my dad's side so all the haircare as a child was done by my mother who is white. she got so frustrated with not understanding my hair texture that she would rip my hair out or shave it off. only native style i knew was just two braids parted down the middle, but it would always be on freshly shampooed wet hair which would end up falling out within an hour and become a mess. the amount of times i tried europeans styles and hair techniques and failed.. i even tried "princess leia" buns the way white people have adapted this style for their own texture, i didnt even realize it was actually a native style. really fascinating how different hair is around the world, such an important part of identity and culture. unfortunately my ancestor's culture is so threatened that few people even know the language anymore, let alone hairstyles. thank you to the Hopi for keeping their beautiful traditions alive
This is fantastic cultural knowledge.
This lady is so sweet!
Thank you for showing this great video.love from Muckleshoot Nation.
my only complaint is that I couldn't see what the woman was doing... I missed some steps...
D Gaines idk if you are trying to do it, but this isn’t something for style, it’s a cultural thing and only to be worn by the hopi girls
alaina johnson Still, seeing how hard Twila worked, would have been nice to see the whole process as opposed to her back blocking the camera.
I really enjoy these cultural demonstrations, especially of native American traditions. I just wish the camera was at an angle where we could see more of what was going on. Thank you for posting. I will look for more videos from your museum.
Thank you for sharing this it’s really beautiful
Absolutely fascinating , thank you
Keep this tradition, It is important, my dad also cut my hair as no one else was supposed to, and I had bangs in front, I love the explanation about the clouds, he would say it had a reason and other tribes were recognised by the hair style.
Native Guatemalan girls also have special hair styles.
Beautiful hair ... Good job.. my nephew is Hopi and German
This was extremely interesting!
nice Dress she have , i would like to have one of this
greetings from germany
Beautiful- thank you!

Thank You for sharing!
Just like butterflies.
When you don't eat well, if you eat processed foods your hair won't grow as thick. Also, washing your hair everyday strips the natural oils.
From experience, this is not necessarily true, but it helps. My skin and hair are naturally pretty oily, so washing my hair often is a must. You do, however, need to be careful about what you use. Watch out for alcohol of any type listed as one of the first few ingredients, and let it dry naturally when possible. Hair dryers are murder on hair. Wash it in the evening if you have to, and your morning shower is shorter - yay! =).
@Sabrina Belladonna what is the amount of ACV and water please ⚘
Excellent video! ☺
I too have noticed that Natives have thinner hair than it was long ago. I think it's because the diet is not traditional anymore. Interesting that she commented on the change in hair thickness.
THE REAL PEOPLE NEVER FORGET
Randy ThirdSun real talk we are the true indians feathers up
Thats really neat!!! Pretty !!!
So beautiful. 💜
I luv peekey bread so much! #hopiforlife😁😉
Malene Avila Right?!?
that last one inspired some of star wars hairstyles for sure
Thank you. This is very educational.
Thank you I love y'all!
Im apache and aztec and 100% RED AMERICOID NATIVE AMERICAN
AND JUST LIKE BOLVIA PERU MEXICO WE ARE MOSTLY NATIVE AMERICAN DEMOGRAPHIC NOWADAYS ITS AMAZING SEEING A HUGE COMEBACK FROM A CRAZY PAST I THINK ITS NIZHONI THING WE ARE STILL HERE CONTINUING OUR JOURNEY DEPSITE WHAT OUR ANCESTORS FACED WE ARE STILL HERE TO STAY PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE IS PROMISED
North, Central, South American Natives are one people. I believe red is a warrior color and we wear that everyday as a badge of honor.
I wish we could see more of the process
I got this segment first and will be watching the other two. -- What about hairstyles and traditions for Hopi men and boys? Very interesting stuff on how culture gets transmitted and saved through everyday living. And I love that we get to hear the mom / hairstylist commenting quietly aside to her daughter as she does her hair.
This is so cute!!
How BEAUTIFUL.
