Hello MyNaturalMyChoice! Love the name!! I love me some Blue Magic Hair Grease....lol Back in the day when we use to get our hair "hot combed" with hair grease, heat damage wasn't an issue. That hot comb use to be smoking hot and our hair was "fried, dyed, and laid to the side"...lol I think it's because hair grease coats the hair strand and protects it. When placed on a wet scalp, it conditions the scalp and locks in moisture; as a result, causes hair growth. Let me know how your hair care regimen works out!

Our hair grows at the exact same rate of all the other Ethnicity's you mentioned. *That is a myth* The only difference is, that our hair is extremely curly/kinky from root to tip (shrinkage) *We* *also have the driest hair on the planet!* So with the hair we already have on our heads, *It must be continually moisturized* *in order to retain that length.* To keep the length as our hair grows out, *we need water and water based products only.* This is what OUR hair responds too. *We have been taught to* *run away from water but that is precisely what we need in* *order for it to flourish!* Black folks are THE only Race of people on earth where we *must have water* or water based products for our type of hair or it will continue to remain dry, brittle, and break. Eat right, drink plenty of water and you are hydrated from the inside out! No relaxers, or other chemicals, packed with a good conditioner and an oil or grease of our choice to seal in the moisture, will not fail in having our hair as long as we want it to be!

All hair grow out of our scalp follicle straight. Curls keep oil close to the scalp preventing it from traveling down the shaft. Think of throwing a bucket of oil down a straight slide verses a flight of stairs. We also have to realize that an inch of growth looks different when your hair coils on itself. its all about retaining your ends. People say genetics of hair growth differently. I disagree, I think it clearly affects retention. A looser curl will hold moisture from scalp oils better because its an easier journey to the ends. The problem with heat is that our hair is dryer by design. For those who like heat I would recommend flat ironing modestly and leaving your straight style in for at least two weeks. Massage your scalp often during this time to bring the sebum down your strands. Also use an oil moisturizer daily. Enough to mimic scalp natural production and account for moisture lost during heat styling. You will still have to tuck away your ends 99.9% of the time and deep condition every wash day.

Great guide to hair growing! The African threading method is based on the same principle of keeping roots straight to help them grow.

When I transition I washed my hair every morning with some days with shampoo and other days only conditioner. I used to put my leave in conditioner in and up I go to work. My hair was so full and growing like crazy. Than people told me that I shouldn't wash my hair everyday, so I listened and my grew went down. So now I'm back being myself and wash my hair whenever I want to. If your scalp is dirty, it blocks the pores. If your hair is curly the sebum has a hard time coming down to the curls. So see 4 u self what works for u. For me it is to keep clean moisturized hair and leave it alone.

Beautiful hair and excellent video and I think you are on to something about the straight roots because it seems like it would make it easier for straight hair to push through the follicle BUT... our curly hair grows out of the scalp curly and unless you can straighten the hair that has not yet grown, how does straightening the grown hair help? Just thinking...

Hello Shaaron Evans! Great question! My belief is the same as you included in your comment. I believe that the hair is straight within the follicle; however, coils because of the shape/opening of the follicle (some oval, circle, etc.). I believe that we make our roots kinkier and collier than normal because of the products we use; the hair reacts to the chemicals and coils up tighter and prevents the hair from growing to it's potential. Try it out and see if it works. I suggest doing it the 7 days prior to the date the menstrual cycle begins due to the high hormone levels. Let me know if it works. Thanks for your comment!

I am actually post menopausal, how does that affect the technique. do use bio-identical estrogen and progesterone to keep the body guessing (HA HA), but couldn't even begin to remember the last time I had a period.

None black hair tend to grow faster because the scalp produces sebum naturally while most black hair has to apply grease/oils to the scalp to help hair growth as well as moisture.. .

I love how my hair feels after using the hair oil (blue magic to most) but it takes about 2-3 days before it gets soft and manageable. What can I do to boost moisture level?

Hello Naturalista! In the video, I explained "my belief" of keeping my roots straight to experience fast hair growth. This is a technique that I have used for many years. The times that I didn't use heat, I would gel my hair down and then tie it down with a scarf to ensure the roots are kept straight. I'd leave it like that for about 5 to 7 days, and then when I would wash it, I would experience an inch or more of hair growth. Roller Sets also work well for keeping the roots straight also. Please be sure to check out my "How To Grow An Inch of Hair in A WeeK" video. Hope this was helpful. Thanks for your comment!

Hey there - here is something I heard regarding hair growth. Our hair is tightly curled close to the head not allowing the hair sometimes to push out (example - black men and beards, and razor bumps when they shave - very interesting show I saw on pbs years ago). Also not allowing air to get to the scalp, hence hair seems to grow faster with the perm or braids. As far as I understand all hair grows a the same within a month. I had really long hair with the perm (straighter hair and air gets to the roots). I know it's growing at the same pace because of the grays...lol. But because of the curls at the end of our hair, there is the breakage. Great videos 😊

From my experience, This is the week the hair starts growing due to hormones. If you don’t want to apply so much heat to your hair/roots, you can just grease/oil your scalp and wear your hair in twists. The twists are good for keeping the roots stretched as well. Quick question... when you do your wash n go, what styling utensil do you use to define the curls? I’m asking because this may be the reason you are not retaining length.
