Thank you for being so honest! xx 1) Braid hair up and put it under a wig (NOT BRAIDS OR TWISTS!!) - Stops friction on hair and protects it from harsh weather. 2) Condition hair multiple times a week (2-3 times a week) 3) Use heavy oils and butters when braiding up hair - Gives hair lots of moisture and makes it thicker, longer, and stronger. 4) Massage your scalp - Stimulates hair growth MAKE SURE YOUR HAIR IS ALWAYS MOISTURISED UNDER YOUR WIG, DON'T NEGLECT IT!

It’s not applicable to all hair type though .my hair does not like heavy oils and butters . It becomes brittle after a few days

I'm starting to think the reason why they say black women can't grow long hair is because people have cognitive dissonance and don't realise a slinky, or a pen spring is longer than it appears. Someone with your length but straight will think their length far exceeds yours. I can see how that stereotype got around. Our hair is wonderful wow

I have 4c hair my hair is waist length. I wear nothing but braids. I do them myself. I do apple cider vinegar to detox my scalp. I wash condition my hair once a month. Then deep condition. I use aloe juice tea tree oil and a leave in conditioner mixed together. Then seal it with blue magic. My hair is so soft, strong and hydrated. It's so thick and healthy. Wigs also can cause traction alopecia so make sure always everything is loose.

Hi, when you say braids, do you mean box braids or do you just braid your actual hair?

Great update! Your hair looks great! 😍

Thank you so much, this is the most real video I have explaining the real natural hair struggles

omggg every now and then i think about that video u made. Its amazing to see that your hair has really grown!!

Thanks for sharing, I find main and tail conditioner for thickness helped me try that as a leave-in👍

Thank you for the video. Definitely needed this.

Yay I'm so happy for you

I had to subscribe. Finally found my match. My hair is also super thin and very dry. Love your vid )😍

Your video was more relevant for me. Sisterlocks took out my hair after wearing them for 8 years ( edges & crown) so I did the chop and have a TWA. This took me into a big depression & disputation. Went to a dermatologist so I still have follicles( more like traction & CCC). There is hope for growth. It is short so I can’t braid. Mine is excessively dry so I need the heavier oils. I have a wig which feels good in winter but I really want to eventually wear my hair by summer. I will order a satin wig cap. The nylon gave me a headache( felt it was squeezing my brain and leg indentation on scalp. After using several products, I found the Mielle on edges & crown which has rosemary,mint, & biotin & Aunt Jackie’s butter creme( intensive moisture sealant). I wash my hair 1x week and condition. Sleep with a satin scarf and pillow case. Do massage my scalp. I am older so my hair will take work. Praying.

Thank you so much for sharing !

YOU DID IT!

i feel like you're the only person i can actually listen to. every other person be acting like they got a full head of hair after 1 year. my hair has literally stayed the same for YEARRRSS. Im so tired

I love your smile😍🥺

I know you happy 😊 I think your hair WAS growing you just wasn't retaining length. I have your texture as long as I leave it alone and it moisturized it retains length. Protective styling in general helped me.

Beautiful hair👍

thank you so much for this info!!

Would you consider getting a deep treatment from a good natural hair stylist and getting a blow out and trim? I’ve started another natural hair journey (growing out a pixie cut) and this time I’ve decided to rely on a stylist rather than being my own hair dresser and it feels very moisturized and I think it’s going to retain a lot more length.

I'm doing natural hair braids and putting my hair in silk scarves under a headwrap instead of a wig. Wigs come with their own issues, the glue, the wig combs and clips, the wig caps rubbing on your braids etc. But I do agree, synthetic braids touching our fine strands is a no-no, I can't believe I put that crap in my hair in the name of protective styling. And it itched too! Skin barrier damage and dry hair for the price of one!

My hair says in my diy african threading and I redo it every 2-3 wks. I have 12 threaded sections and my hair stays stretched and hydrated. No need to deep condition until I go for a full-on wash day. My wigs come off each day and I change up my wigs to keep the rotation good. I use heavy products as well!

7 years and this is all you have to show? Girl it took years of LEARNING your hair. And once you finally figured it out, that's when you saw that growth. So if you count from the day you started doing it right. You'll find you got here alot quicker than you think 😉💕

Yes I been using shea butter in my hair every few days I only wash every other Sunday with shampoo conditioner deep conditioner

Do you co-wash, braid it up in cornrows and then during the week wash those cornrows with conditioner, or do you co wash, oil and rebraid your hair frequently during the week?

I use a scalp massager I brought from Walmart for like $5. It’s in the shape of a lady bug. Super easy. The bottom parts of it are very smooth, so when I rub my scalp it feels so good.

From the sounds of it you have fine strands and high porosity hair so these tips will probably work well for people with that hair type. It is admittedly the most difficult to grow because the strands are possibly the most fragile haha

I am kinda freaking out right now about the similarities on the way we treat our hair. I just conditioned and put Shea butter on my hair 2h ago

Shea butter is the goat. I feel like it’s one of the only things that help with my hair.

I am in that place now 3 years coming up and I feel like my hair have not doing anything different Chile I'm over it I don't even think I will do a update on my channel on my hair.

do you still use vaseline?

Please do an ASMR vid of you stretching your hair with your hands while it’s fully shrunk 😅 satisfying!

My hair needs heavy products as well

The SHRINKAGE is REAL

What you mean braids up??

It would need to be twice your length for u to see the length in its natural state

You can deep condition in your braids so you don't have to keep taking your braids down

7 years for me too and our hair looks identical. You have more length.

What’s your porosity?

Jeeezzzz the shrinkage is mannerless

Doesn't the hair need oxygen? Wearing wigs all the time prevents that oxygen from getting to the hair

I’m not wearing no damn wig. I braid my hair and then I use my oil water fenugreek mix.

condisaning or washing your hiar too much can actsually damage your hair also my mom told me that she a profesanall hiar dresser

A lot of hair growth is INTERNAL. You need : 1. Adequate quality sleep 2. Healthy nutrition 3. Relaxation, destress4. 4. Hormonal balance A lot of people are doing the right thing taking care of their hair, but because they haven't took care of internal problems they see little to very slow progress. 1. Many people have too much STRESS. Stress takes nutrients from hair and pushes hair to fall out or go Dormant stop growing. 2. Lack of nutrients. Hair needs required b vitamins, protein etc. 3.Hormone imbalance. Excess ESTROGEN, INSULIN, CORTISOL all destroy hair growth If you HAVE STOPPED WEAVES, CHEMICALS, BAS HAIRSTYLES, and still STRUGGLING. You have an INTERNAL PROBLEM.

I dont wear wigs 🧍🏽‍♀️

I believe our hair type was designed to be LOCed up. The afro is supposed to serve as the base and the locs grow from there. Our hair twists up and we in turn "detangle" it. That defeats the purpose of what our hair wants to do. My mom loced her hair and was so happy that it finally falls below her back. Loose natural hair takes TOO much work and product. I grew my hair out natural and loved it. Then became annoyed at the detangle time. No thank you. No more. Loced my hair and I wash when I want and just go, I only shampoo once a week. But wet/soak my hair every day. I use NO OTHER PRODUCTS and my hair Is soft and nice. Check out Ingrid Hart's channel or Addette Wellington.
