I remember my mom had a simple routine for my sis and I along with protective style and our hair was to our butt. When we reached high school of course my sis and I explored different styles and our hair became damaged and shorter about shoulder length . In my 20s I went back to a simple old school routine and BAM length again! Keeping simple really is key. I wear mini twists and on occasion my hair is out. My hair is waist length.

I said the Same thing, having a simple routine even with protective styles my hair grew, now it’s growing slow, so back to basics no longer a product junkie.
Once I truly understood and accepted that I was a black woman w/type 4 hair and DID NOT have to look like a woman w/type 3 hair, that was it! You wouldn’t see me buying jams/gel/hair glue or anything that slicked down my texture NO MORE😂 I’ve been natural since I graduated high school in 2016 but my hair didn’t start growing until a little over 1.5 years ago bc I accepted my hair😅 *I don’t even wear weave anymore* My hair went from ear length to shoulder to armpit length, my next goal is bra strap😂😎 I wash my hair every month, moisturize weekly w/cheap leave in, Palmer’s olive oil grease, and a light coat of avocado oil. And my go to style are chunky twists (more like my only style nowadays)😂

OG here. I used to keep my hair in mini twists. I used to wash my hair with the mini twists in. And then do the same as you, take them out individually and comb them out on a rotation basis. What I found is that, even though I was combing them out (using a comb), I started to experience matting. I have very fine hair that matts easily and fast. Rotating taking them out was providing some of the twists the chance to start to form dred locks. Also, the shed hairs were not being combed out fast enough. We shed 100 hairs a day. Even if you shed 1/2 that amount, that 350 hairs a week. My strategy now is to wear large twists and comb them out at least twice a week. I now have many less tangles and I am retaining length.

I can’t imagine combing my hair that often. the time is scanty😬. I totally understand about matting and locking though. when I feel like my hair is matting, I just redo the twists from scratch rather than recycling the same twists

Yes this ultra fine hair likes to lock up and then break off when you try to detangle. Chunky twists are the best for these fine medium density strands.
These tips are right on point. ❤ I wash my hair once a month. I'm almost waist length, so washing weekly/bi-weekly is a no-no for me. My hair lives in a protective style. Mini Twists are my go-to protective style.

Prrotective styling (with hair added) doesnt equal dry hair. A spray bottle with water or rose water, glycerin and a nice penetrative oil and you can get to your hair and scalp. My hair grows wildly when I braid or crochet braid, with a consistent 2-3x a week moisturizing routine. Then again I do my own hair and I control the tightness (or lack thereof) and I moisturize every other day or so. Coily hair loves glycerin + water.

If you can effectively moisturise while in synthetic hair then great. many naturals can’t keep up with the moisture routine required to keep moisturised hair while in synthetic extensions and in my experience they can really dry your hair out especially if product is not getting through the extensions into the hair.

I agree with these tips! I’m on a length retention journey as well. And my routine is very simple. I co wash mid week every 3 weeks after wash day. And I detangle my hair doing the smoothing method in between wash days to remove shedded hair. This is something I used to used to do in the start of my natural hair journey and for some reason I stopped, and waiting entirely on pre poo day to thoroughly detangle has not benefitted me, so I’m going back to my old routine that made my regimen easier and less time consuming. Definitely leaving hair alone is a must, but in my case if I don’t get the shedded hair out after 2 to 3 weeks after wash day, my hair will be a tangled mess as I experienced recently. Thanks for sharing this!😊

Great idea to stop the tangles in their tracks! If it’s gonna be a while before you wash it’s good idea to remove them shed hairs
Great analysis and compilation of the best hair care tips for 4C hair! I was washing weekly to every 10 days in the past. It did work for me at one point when my hair was at a certain length. But now I realize I need to wash my hair less often as I am trying to grow it back. I'm looking to wash every 3-4 weeks now. At the soonest, 2 weeks. And I think I also need to be sure to use a mild shampoo and shampoo just once for the most part. So excited for this hair journey!

Recently I decided to only wash my hair with a moisturizing shampoo only once per month. Not sure if my hair could go any longer yet 😂 But I also started co-washing my hair in between washes. My hair is no longer super dry the way it used to be. I now love looking at my hair ❤❤ I use a leave-in conditioner and seal with my DIY oil.😊 Also, I oil my scalp with my same DIY oil. I'm already seeing growth and my hair looks and feels so much better. I am growing my hair to my hair goal in a very short time and will continue to grow.

Spot on video. I was washing my 43 hair weekly. I was deep conditioning each time I washed, so I didn't see a problem. Bt the reason I was having to wash so frequently is because I wasn't adding enough oils to my hair throughout the week. Now I use jojoba oil daily. It's the closest thing to our natural sebum. I love the results.

You're spot on about the not washing too frequently. Personally, I don't have any trouble leaving my hair and scalp alone for a month or 2. Shampoos are just too drying on my hair. My scalp and hair prefer the build up and no conditioner, moisturizer, or style could replace it. And you're not alone about the oils already in the hair being the best moisturizer, it is for me at least. I bag my hair before working out, and once I take it off, my hair is so moisturized. This is without adding anything. Just steam and whatever is already in my hair do the trick. I don't think I would've developed my scalp psoriasis if I hadn't washed my scalp once a week. I had no need to do it to begin with but I naively believed that my hair would be dirty if I didn't wash it once a week. I'm glad I tried it, but it only taught me that if what you're doing isn't broken, don't fix it; and only listen to people's advice if their hair has similar needs as your own.

Hi I’m a new subscriber. Joined 2 weeks ago. How I came across your channel was a miracle but Gurl we are here to stay! This is my second video which I’m enjoying right now but the video I watched about hydrating hair with glycerine was fire 🔥 The next wash day and I went for it I order the glycerine from uncle A and it came the next day ❗️ After conditioning I made the potion and stretched my hair with my hands and twisted my hair with it. WOW❗️first I had hardly any knots during wash and conditioning that I was amazed at the moisture, softness and shine. I left it for 2 days before coming it and wow. I mean for me this is huge👌🏾 I’ve gone from hating touching my hair because of pain, detangling and dryness to forging a new relationship with it. Guys watch that video again.!!

Great video and Well presented info. My length is bra-strap and in late-Spring and Summer, I’m all about the WnG water washing every 2 days and I “leave it alone’. Full wash day at 7 days. In Winter, my strands hibernate in twists under head wraps and I do a full wash day every 2 wks. The habits for women with long hair that you identify are dead on. I have found that the longer my hair has gotten, the more product I need to use just to cover my strands and the less likely I am to mess with it unless I absolutely have to! 🤣

I find my hair tangles if I don't dry it with a 'blowdryer,' though in my case a Revair which is low heat and more suction than blowing. That's great for my not getting breakage from the hair tangling on itself or knotting, but then there's a battle to keep it moisturized because moisture causes it to revert. A blowout is generally what seems like the gentlest handling for my hair, but I have to wash every 2 weeks or it gets too dry. Thanks for the things to think about if I want more length. Question: don't you find your hair wants to go to dread locks if you're always leaving it twisted and even washing it twisted? I had DLs for many years and all I did was that to maintain the locs. But you can come it out when you decide to and actually get a comb through it?

My wash day is hectic its the only time ill pull out all the stops for treatments proteins, deep conditions, oils,etc. Im a straight natural because my curly natural hair will be rittled with fairy knots immediately. Plus when its straightened i can keep it well moisturized and detangled with little to no additional manipulation for the month. Summer time ill do 2 strand twists and wash/treatments more often. I cut my hair maybe twice a year. And i literally have a small beauty supply store in my house although i only ever use a few products as i got trough it.

💗💓💕💖 Yes please, i want that video. Could you let us know any drawbacks of doing so and how to counteract them. I tried washing my hair in my twists, but i felt that the conditioner didn't rinse out completely, which means that probably the shampoo didn't either. My twists ate never mini, they're usually medium twists, so about 12 to the back, 3 or 2 on the sides, 6 in the front, so max 25 twists on my head. I won't go smaller than that cuz it'll take too long to install. I also dilute the shampoo and conditioner in a dispenser bottle, yet it doesn't completely wash out of my rope twisted hair. Also, fluff at the roots are left behind, as well as any seborrheic dermatitis flakes (i have 2 spots at the back of my head that I'm trying to get rid of, the same spots that always used to burn when i used to relax 3.5 years ago. ) I also found that once water got on my twists after they've been in for 2 weeks, they will matt as though they want to loc, then detangling after causes definite breakage. If you have found measures to mitigate these issues and still save time- I NEED to hear it! 🙏😅

@@CoilyDiaries Yes, sadly, that's what I have to do- untwist to rinse out the shampoo thoroughly, then retwist. It takes up time, but alas, it needs to be done to prevent shrinkage. 🤷♀️

I did come up with a time saving solution that I've yet to try in the upcoming wash days... I've decided I'm going to use a deep conditioner that can double as a leave in, so that after I rinse the shampoo, I could get out of the shower, slather the conditioner in the twists, baggie it up, give it heat, then detangle and twist over. No need to go back and rinse out anything! That should save me about 30 minutes I think. 😉😁

Wow 🙌🏾🥳🥳🥳🌺🌺 congratulations! Very inspirational!
I appreciate your viewpoints in regard to embracing what God created. I also love the versatility that comes with Afro hair of all levels (3a,b,c, 4a,b,c). Not sure who created the number and letter system for our hair instead of just using the definition of each head of hair like other ethnic groups, but ok. lol. My hair is fine, wavy, kinky, and coily. High porous. It will drink in a product, and over night pour it out/evaporated ... gone! lol I love wearing my hair natural in summer months. It's pretty, and it allows me to be able to sweat, swim, play sports, and all the other outdoor activities that I love without any concern whatsoever. It goes into one or two buns, pom poms, or curly pony tails. Done. In the cooler months, I prefer it to be a bit straighter, but with minimal manipulation. So I Wow Dream Coat, RevAir and TYMO my hair every two weeks or so, and just style it in a messy bun, loose with a bang and head band, hair clip, etc. Closing out each day with bee wax and black jamaican castor oil, silk scrunchies, and wrapped in a silk scarf assures another day of easily maintained, low to no manipulation in the morning. I have to say though, I enjoy enjoying my hair, so keeping it in protective styles and not touching it is not an option for me. Why have it if I cannot enjoy it. lol. I appreciate your chanel, afro sis. God bless you!

13:12- I will check out that video next! My only reserve is my scalp. I’m guessing your scalp doesn’t give you issues so your washing/moisture routine fits and works for you. I find that my hair retains moisture fairly well but I find that I need to wash more frequently than I would like to because of my scalp. Once a week is fine for me but when I have in styles like mini twists etc, my scalp doesn’t hold out for long so I end up pushing out wash day to preserve the style and while my strands remain moisturized, my scalp suffers 😭. Ofc this isn’t good and I need to do some adjusting but it’s tough lol.

I used to get my hair done in a crochet style but I haven't had my hair done in awhile. My hair broke off and came out in spots because my braids where too tight. What do you recommend I use to grow my hair quickly and thicker? I use hair growth oil on my scalp and blue magic coconut grease on my hair. I started using this grease ovee a week ago before that i used Sulfer 8 grease.

Hair does not grow 'quickly'. Be patient with your hair and keep it moisturized. Let go of the idea that you need tight styles because that will cause inflammation on your scalp and may also rip hair straight out your scalp. I do my own crochet braids which is my go-to protective style and I dont corn row my hair super tight. It literally makes no sense cause no one's seeing the corn rows😂Try flat twisting instead, and remember to keep your hair under the style moisturized. Water and glycerin. Maybe an oil of your choice.

For the spots that broke off, get some vitamin E capsules and pop them to get the oil out. Use the Vit E oil on your spots, gently massaging the oil in. Do this twice a week.

Being healthy is key to make sure your hair gets all the nutrients it needs. Thyme, biotin, pumpkin seed oil are great to help give your hair a great chance at being healthy but it’s great to ensure the hair is already healthy as it comes out. Having a healthy hair routine and sticking with it is also key!

aloe, okra, Ambunu all offer great slip. Another idea is to add olive oil to on top of your conditioner. adding water will also help everything become more slippery

I agree with this tips but for me I wash my hair every week or every other week and sometimes I do the mini twist or mini braid or braid or twist out also ponytails or buns. I am trying to leave my hair alone. I don't like doing the finger detangling but I don't like the feeling of hair. I do the washing every week or two weeks because I don't like how dry my hair feels. But for the most part I am lazy when it comes to my hair.
