Hey loves! Today we're going IN DEPTH on how to transition to natural hair for beginners! I realized after many of your questions and enthusiasm about transitioning, that each stage of the journey brings it's different challenges and need-to-knows. I decided to create a How to Transition 101 series to break down each stage, beginning with Months 1-3 (debatably the most difficult)! Let us know some of the transitioning questions you've been having or any tips you have for fellow transitioners!

Transitioning takes so long... and you do one thing wrong your hair breaks off and you don’t retain length. Big chopping takes way faster and you keep your length because you have healthier ends
No HEAT No SULFATES, SILICONES, PARABENS Frequently trim hair Use ALL natural ingredients Perm rods are your BESTFRIEND Switch up products Deep condition once a week LOVE your hair Wash day once a week -shampoo -conditioner -deep condition , 20-30 mins Protein treatments once a month Use shampoo every other weak and co-wash in between Bantu knots. You can blow dry (cool setting) Styling Products Curling cream // shes moisture curl enhance smoothie , eden body works curling cream , curl soufflé, double butter cream Hair gel (not for Bantu styles) // Jamaican black castor oil flaxseed eco gel, eden body works gel, curls blueberry bliss belly Oil // sweet almond oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil (place oil over curling cream)

In the same boat lol. I do have relaxed hair and my last relaxer was 5 months ago. I’ve been letting my hair grow out as I continue to do protective styles. Another thing that has helped me is following and subscribing to different accounts who have MY hair type/texture. I always said natural hair was too much for me to handle and my relaxed hair made things easier but listening to others tell their stories and give their tips inspired me to have self love for my curly hair and made me start this journey in the first place.

I haven't had a relaxer in my hair for a year, but I use a blow dryer and flat iron on wash days. I want to go natural, but it is so time consuming and I am really impatient. I always use deep conditioner, when I wash my hair. I want to do the big chop, but my edges aren't great, do to when I was getting my hair braided all the time YEARS ago and they still haven't grown back. It's depressing!

Cais Arhin What hair styles have you tried that gives the least amount of tension on the hair. I’m 3 months post now and I’ve been doing the protective styles but want to give my hair a breather as well.
I’m 18 months into my transition. I’ve worn a twist out the entire time. Slowly cutting off relaxed ends so won’t be doing a big chop. Your hair is getting prettier each time I see you on KZread and IG! When I’m fully natural I’m going to find a salon to color my hair like yours. Can’t wait.

Love this video!! You are giving me the confidence to go natural ❤️
I have had relaxed hair since 10 or 11. So knowing what my natural curls look like is completely foreign to me. But I think it is time to try this new jump and journey. 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this video. I am goin on my natural hair journey and learning so much about my hair after 8 years of straightening, relaxing, keratin treatments, & no protection on my curls. This video really hit every point I needed to know. Thank you soooo much
I finally stopped using my straightener yesterday. I’ve been straightening and relaxing my hair since I was 11. So I’ve basicly got 17 years of damage and a loooong journey to go. The last keratin treatment I’ve had was a year ago and i’m just exhausted from it all. I want to go natural and you’ve inspired me. I really don’t know a thing about curly hair and your video has been really helpful.
i’m almost 16 and have had locs for about 10 years. during this quarantine i’ve been thinking about taking them out and having my natural hair. this has helped so much🤍
Thank you so much for this video. I was on the fence about going back natural and this helped me so much.
Thank you Queen. I was so close to cutting off all of my hair. I just need deep breaths, patience, and all of your advice. 🙏🏽✨ Bless up.
I’m 10/11 months into my transition and have watched probably every natural hair transitioning tips on KZread. This is definitely the most comprehensive (and well-spoken) list of great advice I’ve seen. Great job! I can’t big chop either I think it would get me a divorce real quick haha. (He’s supportive of this transition but he’s definitely a bit scared and definitely isn’t on board with my chopping off all my hair haha)

Congratulations on 10/11 months! It was about month 14 when I started feeling ready to cut off all my heat damage but it’s a personal preference. Every time you have the courage to take off more and more, you’ll fall in love with your hair’s progress! 👏🏽👏🏽
Omg I’m 8 minutes in and you explain things so much better I love it!
You made me feel so much better about transitioning! Thank you Beautiful!
Have gotten press & curl for years. Just recently decided to transition to natural. Thank you, this really was a lot of good information. SO comprehensive. Thanks again!
Thank you for all the tips and I want to especially thank you for the encouraging words at the last part of your video. I really, really, really hope I don't give up within these next 3 months. I'm glad I'm starting while the weather isn't stifling hot (I live in the southern part of USA). I feel like if I can make it to June, then I have a fighting chance of making it through the summer heat. I'll be watching the rest of the videos in your series. But I have family members who are 5 to 7 years into their natural hair, so I'll have a lot of support.
Thanks for breaking everything down and providing multiple products that may work on my particular hair type! This has really been a struggle. Patients is key
This video is a God send and literally just gave me so much confidence
i love this video. you did not complicate things with big terms like others do and you made it super easy. even the products you recommended are easy to find. Thank you! my hair is super damaged from relaxers and heat and its very short but like you said, its a spiritual journey for me and im excited. I have always done weaves and braids so my only wory is how to own my hair especially in its damaged stage.
I literally made the decision to transition to natural about 2 weeks ago when I was sitting in the salon chair for a relaxer after 8 weeks. I know the journey will be long and I’m thankful that I came across your video. Thank you, it was very informative.
Hi Amina. I'm just starting my transitioning journey. Your videos are very helpful specially at this first stage of my transitioning. I appreciate you. Thank you

Thanks for making this video. It is very helpful. I just started my natural hair journey a week ago. I'm Puerto Rican and had really long natural curly hair in high school. I wasn't happy with the way I looked so bleached and straightened my hair for years. It is true what you said about it is a spiritual journey as well. I have been trying to feel more comfortable and confident with myself and the hair God gave me. Seeing all these youtube videos shows me how beautiful it is to have curly hair. Thank you.
you are such a life saver, i completely ruined my curls by constantly straight my hair and bleaching it twice this past year. my curls were ruined and my ends are now straight. i’ve never experienced this before but i’m trusting the process and all of your videos are giving me hope. officially 6 months heat free and still transitioning.

Hello and very informative video! I'm 58 and beginning my journey to natural hair TODAY! Today I will throw out all of the shampoo's and conditioners that I have, in addition to returning a very expensive curling iron that I recently purchased at Sally's. Whew! I'm not going to lie, PATIENCE IS NOT A TRAIT that I have acquired, when it comes to my hair. I've tried transitioning before, however, the part that really frustrated me was when the chemicals started growing out, I just didn't know what to do with my hair. Since watching your video, I now know what products I need and will be purchasing them today! PRAY FOR ME! I truly am tired of the chemicals that I've put in my hair, as I have been applying them for 40 years! I truly can't wait to see the definition of my true curls, even though it will take a year or more. Thank you!😃
I’m starting the journey - I keep my relaxed hair curly so no problem with no heat. My roots are thick so moisture will be key.
This is so good!!! I need a paper and pen for this.....
Loved the video. Definitely became a subscriber 💝💝😆😆

I am working on my transitioning stage right now. I watched your part one video and looked and found your second and third video. During the first video you mentioned that your shampoos don't need to have sulfates and that other thing ( i forgot the name) in your shampoos and conditions , then i went looked at my hair products and it had those ingredients , so then i started to look up good shampoos and conditioners and i made a list of the one i would like to buy to help my hair . And plus im saving up my money so i can be able to do the things i want to do with my hair i will update my process of my hair. So thanks for the tips and advice to help me with my transitioning stage
Been natural for a year but I'm still watching this.

My 13 year old granddaughter just relaxed her hair & is now freaking out about getting it back to natural & how long it will take. I don't know what to tell her. It's long & she doesn't want to cut it. Help
This video was super helpful. Im making the natural transition myself and I'm super nervous. This video helped calm my nerves 😊.
This was such a helpful video. My last full relaxer was December 2018 and I'm so scared/nervous!!
My last relaxer was in September 2019 and as of April I'm at 2 inches of natural hair. When I first started I thought I would never see results but after 7 months I'm happy with it and can't wait to have hair as healthy as yours!! 😍🙌

My last was also in September. Itching to cut the straight ends! But I'm trying to reach the 1 year mark before I do.
Learned a lot. Thank you so much
Hi! I’m super excited to get started on my journey. This was very motivational for me. I’m gettin my hair braided in box braids very soon and I was wondering what are somethings that I can do before, after, and during the time I have my box braids to help my transition. Thanks!!!

Hi. I’m a new subscriber and want to Thank you for this video. I am fully transitioning now. I stopped using relaxers almost a year ago but was still using hot curlers and and straightening comb to get me through. I’ve decided no more heat and started using transition styles. It’s definitely a long road so finding this video has been a wonderful.

I’ve never gone natural in my life, my moms my hairstylist so she’s been controlling all my hair decisions since I was born. I had relaxed hair until I was like 13 since my mom started to realize what the treatment was doing to my hair but even after that I did my hair every 1-2 weeks keeping it in it’s straight form as best as I could until now because Im pretty sure it’s killing my hair so let’s see how the rest of this year looks during this process for my hair. Thank you for being so informational 😍
