Dude...you always make me second guess everything I've learned in cosmetology school. In all fairness I "did" go to school in El Paso TX where I was the only "brown" person in class. I think we spent a day or two on ethnic hair and it was basically teaching to flat iron it into submission...no real texture break down. Thanks a bunch.
Your skin looks amazing btw! Skincare routine, do tell 👀!
You are an excellent educator! Thank you SO much for sharing your skills and passion for cosmetology.

I have fine, thin-medium density 4b/4c hair. I've had to learn to lighten up on products and not be so heavy handed. It's interesting being a natural with thin density. You're often seen as having damaged hair. As if it's not normal to not have a high density of hair. Especially when you have afro hair.

The Whoever Girl!!! You just spoke a word...yes! My daughter is of the same type but all products claim to be for damaged strands but they are not. The strands are fine, dense (a lot per section, and healthy). My challenge is keeping it moisturizes without weighing it down. What products have you found to work best?

@@aprilbrown7480 Aint it the truth. I use Knot today as my leave in. I either use it straight up or make the kimmaytube version. As for my moisturizer, right now, it's Camille rose aloe whipped Butter gel. I've found that I can use heavy moisturizers, I just have to make sure I'm not using a huge amount of it. I have a habit of being heavy handed. So if you're not already just try decreasing the amount of product or going for products w/ a lighter consistency. So if you use a quarter size amount per section, try making it a nickle or dime size amount. I have yet to try any lotions but they tend to be lighter than butters. Maybe give those a try or look for products that say "light weight". But try decreasing the amount of product first to see if that helps. Good luck, sis!

@@aprilbrown7480 Oh I should also add that I use aloe Vera gel. I keep a spray bottle of half aloe gel and half water. I cant use water because it will open my cuticles. Ispray my hair w/ that and then I LCO using knot today, a bit of the Camille rose butter gel and seal it all in w/ a mix of mostly olive oil and a tad bit of castor. The key for me was to find products that seals my cuticles & keep the moisture in without being to heavy.

The Whoever ok, ive seen Camille Rose products on the shelf but always thought them to be for silkier hair types. We’re more type 4 kinky coils than curls. It sound like you wear your hair out and we still tame our hair in braids or cornrows at all times. I’m a big Shea Moisturire fan, JBCO or Manuka Honey. Thanks so much for sharing. I’ll definitely be trying something new 🤗

@@aprilbrown7480 No I actually keep my natural hair in plaits for 4wks at a time. I'll wear my hair out for up to a week after that and then put them back into plaits for 4wks. Camille rose is indeed for us type 4 girls too. There's a lot of 4c girls that use her products. My hair is the total opposite of silky lol. Sounds like we have similar hair. Im sure you can find type 4 girls on youtube reviewing her products. I use those products when my hair is both loose and in plaits. And yes. That Manuka honey is bomb. I love the smell. Wish they had it as a perfume.

Thanks for sharing this I've been natural 17 years and I have been shaving my head for 10 plus.. Basically learning my texture all over again my hair is type 4 and luvs creams and I use gel sometimes however I'm still unsure about what to use.
This video was very informative and you explained it perfectly, as you do always. I see that the perms I used to get were way too much for my hair. Breakage galore!! I now know how to treat my hair with respect and GENTLY. Great video!
I always learn something new from you! You have a great way of explaining things...”it’s the size of the trees in the forest” - I felt that- love when something clicks, so thank you...
Love these vids! Gives me things to ask my stylists when I get my hair done or for consults.
Yes!!!! This is incredibly helpful. Thank you for giving us the real deal about our hair.
It's always nice to start the morning off with seeing a well groomed man! And when he teaches you something new about your hair.....that's just way more than I was ready for 🥰!!! Hey Linwood! First....that tie/ascot is everything! But the sleek ponytail and even beard..... I'm done😂. You look marvelous! Now back to this hair situation.... I've always had what I considered thick high density hair- but lately it's thinning out (with the help of this dang thyroid medication) and it looks more and more like fine hair! Color damages it now and it doesn't like heat at all. Guess I'll be throwing my hat into the wig game now for real. Thanks for this great info and stay fly my brotha😎!!!

Hi Glamfam , you are a great teacher, i also thought it was about the feel , now that you have explained it soooo eloquently it really make sense and i'm in a better position to take good care of my hair thanks for sharing, your the best .
You are so knowledgeable and break things down sooooo well! I’m visual so your examples and visual props and demonstrations are awesome! Extremely helpful. It’s a complex topic so I really appreciate your knowledge and how you dissect the topics. Brilliant!
Thank You Linwood. This video is very informative. The visual images aid in explaining and reinforcing the facts about the differences between think and fine srands.
A wealth of information💜 Thank you!
One of the Best Videos you’ve ever done, very informative. Writing my hair tips done, will always remember them 😇

Thank you for these videos. I consider your channel a Master Class on hair care. One day I'd like to make a video about the suggestions you give, how I applied them as you instructed and proof of how much healthier my daughter's hair is thanks to you! From the bottom of my heart thank you GlamFam! 💞
I have noticed that my two daughters have very different textures of hair. I do the same regimen for both but like you said I have realized that they need different attention. Can you please make a video on products to use with each texture? Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!!
Great info! I just read your Back to basis article and it lead me here. Thanx so much! This is definitely new info 😊
I was told that I have fine hair but did not understand what that meant until this visual and analogy. Thanks Linwood!
Yes, love this video! Fine hair, medium density, 4a/b/c curl patterns with a ton of flyaways...and now I know why. Thanks for the share, very grateful for the insight.
Another fantastic lesson! Thank you so much. May you and your family stay well.
Wow thank you so much for making this video it was very informative and I learned so much about my own hair texture
Since getting older, I believe my hair is thin, but dense. You are the ultimate professional. Will backtrack your other videos. Thank you
Yes, great illustrations. It was clear and concise. I guess that only thing missing would be a sample if the type of hair products that would work for each hair type
I love this type of content. Please post more!
Thank you for that insight on hair texture. I always thght it was the way it felt. Now I have a better understanding.
I am 60 years young, been Natural since 2012 and....I actually had NO CLUE about the true definition of texture until watching this video!!! Thank you soooo much Linwood!! Is it possible you can devote an ENTIRE video for 4c Hair Care routine??? I’m talking from the rootie to the tootie!!!🤣 Wash Day... to Set/Style... and of course suggested products along the way!!

Loved this video! I've been in the natural hair community for 20 years. I wish that I would have known years ago that my hair was fine. I just realized this a few years ago. It's really apparent when my hair is flat ironed too. I will definitely start getting trims more often because all of the problems you mentioned with fine hair happens to me. Thank you for breaking down texture.
Yaaassss Linwood boo! 😍You better wear that ascot sir!!❤️❤️❤️❤️I have coarse hair. Lmbo @ trees in your forest! 😂😂😂I understand what to use for my texture that will allow me to “baby” my hair and keep my hair healthy. Thanks for the great info Linwood! 🙌🏽

I am now able to view my hair as less of a Rubix maze & more of a plant i can better grow. Lord, forgive me. I just don't see anyone else im willing to take haircare direction from in such fragile times! I thank you again, my friend! THANK YOU !!

Thanks so much for this. I now understand why my coarse hair can take medium heat from blow outs. I hardly see breakages. Oils only make my hair drier. Having 4B low porosity hair too grease works as a final sealant.
I have learned some very important things about how to take care of my hair. I used to just shampoo my hair and put leave in conditioner but you said use the rinse out conditioner too. Thank you!!!!
Very incredibly helpful! Thanks a lot.
This explains soooo much I have low density fine hair. Thank you so much this was very informative ❤️❤️❤️❤️ God bless
OH MY GOSH!!! This makes so much sense! I’m just here to learn more about my hair and the hairs of my little nephews ( which is super long and I often times do their hair). But I have 4c hair naturally and when I was younger my hair would be normal and longer in the back but around my ears and back of the neck it would be so short! This makes so much sense as to why!! 2:50
