Natural Hair WASHDAY ROUTINE After SIX Weeks ‼️ | Natural Hair Growth Challenge

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

#NaturalHair #Washday
Details on the NHG Challenge:
The Natural Hair Grow Challenge that I, Natural Academia, started doing in the summer of 2020. This challenge allowed me to take some time to let my hair just be. In my opinion, Natural Hair grows a lot faster when it is left alone. In addition to that, this challenge has also forced me to love my hair in its natural state, I no longer feel the need to make everything look “perfect” or worry about how I’m going to do my hair when I do my NHG challenges.
Time frame: 7/9/2022-10/9/2022
Moisturize: When needed, I will be moisturizing every 2 weeks

    Three months in a protective style honestly I'm happy to not have to deal with it. My hair is put away and has been wash and moisture while in the style. I miss my hair but I also super glad to not have to do it. I feel the less we touch and play with our hair the longer it grows.

    Yes so true … Ironically as it may sound ,putting our crown away feels like the best thing to do for our hair and I dont know why it has to be that way for us 😫No matter how much I want to flaunt my thick natural hair it always ends up with single strand knots and I always have to cut them so I’ve braided them in cornrows now since it helps my hair grow 😭😭

    I would have scratched a hole in my scalp if I went even two weeks without shampooing.🙆‍♀ Today is day 5 and I need to shampoo in the morning. It would be nice not to have to shampoo as frequently as I do, but that's not what my scalp is in agreement with.🤣 It looks like a normal amount of shedding to me, especially for six weeks.💜 I hope your move goes smoothly.

    If you’re trying to stop using grease, I would recommend you try out the 3 step method. Shampoo, condition, then style with a mousse or gel. It’s sounds crazy, but it changed my hair, for the good. My hair is always so soft and moisturized, it’s growing a lot faster. Etc.

    I joined the July hair growth challenge and as someone who became fully convinced by using grease through watching you and Tubers like EfikZara and NeziNapps I feel you in the grease staining! I honestly can’t remember what using an oil on my hair as a sealant was like, but if you want to take a break from grease I hear Castor Oil and Shea Butter apply and seal great for high porosity. I remember early in your channel you mentioned wanting to go an all natural route so maybe this is a sign😊 though if you want something grease-like, the Carols Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey Pomade is something I’m using every week and it smells as good as it feels. That and some ORS Hair Fertilizer (an oldie but goodie ) and my spray bottle are how I plan on getting through these months!

    Even though this is pre-recorded, I’m So happy to see you beautiful one! Great video as always! I’ve tried the ginger rinse too…and my hair LOVED it. It’s just so expensive 💀 and you don’t really get that much in the bottle lol 😂😂😂 but I think it is worth it too 😩👀 I’m never letting grease go, but I love Shea butter. It doesn’t leave the same film although since it’s a fat, it has a dulling residue. The other alternative would be oil, but that gets everywhere too lol. Anyway, I’m Praying our Lord’s peace and guidance in every step you take, and your move. Don’t stay away too long! (I’ll be joining the challenge too! 😍)

Targets in my area (Oklahoma City) price is $17.99. Not sure if this is going on at all Marshall stores. Just fyi - you might want to visit/call your local Marshalls and find out.
