So many black women suffer from traction alopecia and breakage because of all these hairstyles and overmanipulation. I'm happy that you were able to do this for yourself. Be careful with the tight hairstyles.

I was gonna say bc...she must have really abused her hairline for it to be bald and black like that. Didn't even think it was possible for your hairline to turn black like that by applying the alcohol to remove the wig.

How much was it for a surgeon to sit there for 8 hours for this procedure. Lorrddd! Sounds so pricey! Hope this is not the new bbl type trend bc...so many questions lol

I loved this. I really respect African women and women who deal with hair issues. Its so much work mentally to accept oneself already and I know this is such a journey. I loved listening to this so I understand more of issues that my friends of different races face. You are glowing and I can't wait to see more videos. :D

Make sure you wear a silk cap under the wig and that cap must be 100% silk to prevent rubbing on your edges
Good for you - its amazing how open you are and it's so important to have this dialogue by people who go through these issues x10. As much aa being an influencer is your brand, it's also how you make a living and what black women do with their hair impacts their ability to do so. I still remember my mom talking about workplaces threatening to fire black women way back in the day if they came in with their natural hair. Congrats - this was a really long time coming, and I hope that anyone who goes through similar issues sees this
Thank you for you being honest, open and transparent with your journey. I have been struggling with the acceptance of my hair for a longtime and having any edges doesn’t make it any easier😅. I am happy that you can laugh now and make jokes about how far you have come and I hope to be there one day 😊. Thank you for using your platform to educate and make this a safe space🫶🏾.

They did a great job, I love how you’ve always been transparent about your journeys. ♥️
Yay I’m so happy for you, I know it’s one less thing to worry about. As women we understand that hair can boost our confidence immensely ❤.
So proud of you and your transparency ❤ black women needs to not be afraid of self love and getting back what has been lost ! Don’t let anyone shake you.
Thanks for sharing, Maz!! you look stunning as usual!! Appreciate you being so transparent about the process and your recovery. This will help so many black women who didn't even know this type of procedure would work for us.
Love you Mariam. Too genuine and transparent. You are the sweetest person and am so sorry you had to go through all that with your hair. I once lost some hair at the back and it made me cry so much I had to call my mum cause I was depressed about it. I am glad you have the power to change these situations and inspire others suffering from hair loss. Lots of love
I love the transparency in this! So relatable and your hair looks amazing now😍😍
Thank you so much for sharing your very honest detailed hair journey and all the information you have given .I have considered doing a hair transplant but I am still scared and by the way you look absolutely amazing, well done .

Any growth??
We Black Women have such unique and diverse textures of hair on our head, that it's no wonder that we truly require guidance for maintaining our hair. Growth rate, curl pattern, tensile strength, natural color and other factors differ from one woman to another. So, extra care must be taken to maintain our crowns. Why do you think others steal our haircare techniques and styles?! Love and care for your crown ANY WAY YOU SEE FIT! AND if you want to improve it, then do it!!
So grateful for the video xx

I think my arms are like this is from when I was a lot younger - I was really into athletics at school and actually really fast so I think that’s what developed my arms. Honestly that’s it because I avoid as much as possible to not do anything with them 😭 xxx 😂😂
Wow this is amazing. I’ve had super thin edges all my life pretty much and have tried everything to grow them and nothings worked. Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to do this!!
This video is so helpful and clear as I want to do a hair transplant as I suffer from traction Alopecia and follicle degeneration syndrome but I’m also scared 😢😢

Would be nice to see pictures of your progress like your hairline month to month or every 2 or 3 months
Thank you for sharing your experience with us . Does the hair fall out or is that it now. Also I love the wig you wore on holiday. Wear did you get it?
Pick and drop has a lot to answer for! It cost so many girls/women their edges.
I am so thankful for your video, I want to get this done someday, I just need to find the right place here in the USA

Did Adeola have this done too?? Curious because her forehead looks smaller. I really want this now 😩
I’ve been researching getting a transplant for awhile as I have traction alopecia due to just being plain dumb with my hair over the years. All my hair grows a lot and is really thick except my edges. Think I’m going to go ahead and get it done soon I’m scared but I cannot take these thin edges anymore and nothing works. I even tried steroid injections from dermatologist, minoxidil everything nothing worked. Thanks for sharing! I would love to have seen your results after a year 😩. And an estimate on the cost.
What happens with the part where they took the hair in the back of your head? Will the hair grow back there a little bit?
