Take the Guess Work Out of Natural Hair Care. ~ Facts and, "Not So" Common Sense to Longer, Thicker, Healthier Hair. 
Хобби
My daughter is six and African American, and I'm a white male who's been learning how to take care of her mainly o curl pattern since infancy (I admitted since day one I had no clue and had a lot to learn). I'm involving her in learning how to take care of her hair, and I just discovered your channel. I am THRILLED because I see your videos as a way of learning together (they're AMAZING), and for her to have an informed discussion at the salon (she decides what she wants, not us - unless her decision will damage her hair!). Thank you!!
Aww, this is so sweet. May you two be blessed with a great father-daughter relationship for many decades to come!
This is amazing to read. A father is her 1st love relationship she will have. Teach her about taking care of her insides too so she knows her self worth and the signs of toxic relationships. Most of all NO RELAXERS or texturizers.
Keep it up! Good to hear
Not all heros wear capes! Well done dad!
We're learning too. Great job dad!
With “normal” I guess you meant “medium”. The way you took her critique is very honorable!
Agreed.
Nice to see it was accepted with grace, always a good sign, and partially why I hit the subscribe button!
I agree with possibly changing it to 'medium'.
We must remember how language normalises somethings over others if we're not careful.
And just like how most of us have looked at 'nude/natural' tights that are peach, or skin tone plasters that are peach and looked at our own skin like 'huh, what am I then?' I think usage of terms 'normal' are potentially iffy unless they're used for an open spectrum, rather than a point on a spectrum. :3
To other black female youtubers that create videos about hair, please take notes. This is how a hair video about learning about natural hair and even caring about it should be.
This video was detailed, informative and not only provided pictures, but also examples through animation.
The black community needs to see more natural hair videos like this.
My hair is both thick and dense yet I treat it to like its going to fall out any second. 😂 haha! I rarely style my hair mostly wearing twists in a low bun. Great content as always.
Same
Lol same 😅
That you do Sis! You have a Very lush mane!!!
This was such a great series for naturals like myself who’s hair doesn’t mimic these popular RUclipsrs. I’m so insecure sometimes the fact that my hair hangs down instead of poofs out. Also that my hair isn’t dense like say Naptural85. But this series really gave me confidence. Thank you!
Why would you be insecure about your hair hanging down?. I am looking at your picture. Based on the length of your hair, it would not poof out regardless of the texture. The weight of most people's hair would cause it to hang down at that length. If you have healthy hair, be happy! Black women have a wide range of hair textures and skin tones. Be yourself, and be proud of the hair that God gave you!
Michelle, we all have our insecurities. thanks!
@@l8terivy My comment was meant to be a positive one. I am done. Goodbye!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is something called toxic positivity and entitled behavior I think I just witnessed it and I feel nauseous.
@@nikoutoajaisai6310 whom are you referring to??
It is encouraging to see somebody state the positives of having fine hair as all I hear are the negatives.
I have fine hair strands but high density hair so depending on how my hair is styled I often get comments of people saying that my hair looks thin ect. in a way that makes it seem like a bad thing.
There’s nothing wrong with it, in most cases my hair is healthier than the person putting down my fine hair.
Exactly 😊
At least you have high density, lol. Mine is sparse. Mini twist always looking scanty and thin......lol
adedamola adenaike It may be hard but try to think about the pros of your hair type rather than the cons.
Sadly this community seems to completely ignore those of us with fine hair whether thins strand or/and low density.
It’s like we completely get ignored.
It’s frustrating but I can only change if more and more of us talk positively about our “thin” hair.
@@abbieroberts3093 to be honest... I kind of resent when people talk about making hair thicker. Almost as if thin hair needs to be "fixed". Whats wrong with having thin hair? If your hair is naturally thin/fine, it will remain like that regardless as to what vitamins you take, products you use etc....its misleading to think otherwise, and perpetuates the idea that thin hair is undesirable.
@@fayeola6616 I believe the advice is for those who desire a bit more thickness if it's possible.
I don't think it's meant to suggest that thin hair is undesirable. Whoever is happy with it, that's great. Whoever needs a little help can take the suggestions.
My hair is fine & dense which is a great thing especially when my hair is in its coily state because it looks super full & fluffy, but when I get it straightened, it looks very flat which is annoying. All in all, I have to say, I love the hair God gave me. 🤷🏽
EXACTLY the same!
My hair is thin and fine but thanx to your videos I've managed to retain length, keep it healthy and get a bit of thickness due to your onion juice recipe... I feel way more confident now
🤗 I'm so happy to hear that !!!!
thin and fin do not mean the same thing. If you're seeing scalp, you have thinning hair, which does not necessarily mean you have fine strands. Nutrition might be the issue.
I would love to listen to your voice for meditation. So soothing.
I feel the same about her too😊😊😊😊😊
Like in hair growth and thickness affirmations!
I play her videos when trying to sleep they’re soo good and educational
Here i was thinking am alone
Yessss
Yep. I’m on the sparse fine hair end. My hair is so fragile. It grows, but breaks off if I sneeze wrong.
sounds like you have breakage not fine hair. Fine hair does not mean damaged or weak hair.
A commenter pointed something that mattered to them & green beauty took it to heart and corrected the error.
That's something truly beautiful! It made me feel all warm & fuzzy because it shows me that she genuinely cares about every single viewer ❤️
Can u do a series of videos on fine thin hair just like this (for us with such). Nice video
Yeah what she said
Show the fine, thin haired girls some love too lol.
fine hair and thin/thinning hair are not the same and are not mutually exclusive. She needs to do a video or two explaining that to yall because there is so much confusion.
Thank you for this! I’ve been trying to tell people all the time that my hair has thin strands and it’s fragile but because I have a really good density people ignore it-including hair dresser 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Same here.
Sameee
My hair is very thick and dense, sometimes it's a struggle but I love it.
I would do anything to have thick and dense hair😩😩
@@lifechoice7889 I sometimes think I want thick dense hair, but I would happily settle for a happy medium. I don't want to be able to see my scalp when I do mini twists or braids that's all!
n2xrcise girl I can take medium aswell, anything but fine 😩.
i noticed that my hair is more thick in the back and less in the front.
I am on the medium to high density with fine strands side. It is definitely fragile and prone to easy breakage. I definitely have to treat it like fine lace. The less I leave it alone and keep it moisturized, the better. Love your in depth videos. Thanks for sharing!
Those photos were fire!!!!!! This is such an informational series. Thank u so much!
I’ve learnt from this that I have fine strands and dense hair. Thank you for the information! I always keep my hair stretched with African threading (I don’t use the yarn thread. I use the plastic thread) and my retained a lot of length thanks to this, letting my hair be by always having it in twists and applying Virgin Hair fertilizer.
But honestly, stretching hair is a game changer! I can’t stress it enough.
When you do African threading, how many threaded small sections do usually end up with? Thanks in advance!
Finally ....someone who gets it. Thank you for your expertise. Everyone should listen and learn.
Blessed one, another awesome video. I love how you made "me" feel good about my unique fine, sparse hair. Ended on a good note without making those like me feel less fortunate. Thanks!
CHILLEEEEEEEE YOU LOOK AMAZING WITH ALL YOUR GOLD AND YOUR SKIN AND HAIR ALL TOGETHER, JUST GORGEOUS!
Wow! My hair isn't very thick, but quite dense. Who knew. Having learned the pros and cons, I have more confidence going forward in my hair journey. Thanks a million
Thank you for this video. I have fine sparse natural hair and have seriously incorporated hair rinses into my hair care routine and try to leave my hair alone.
Just thought I'd let you know, I find these videos helpful to understand my hair even though I'm white and not a member of the target audience. I have thicker and denser wavy hair. Not the thickest or densest, but it's above average for my specific demographic. Great videos!
The thing that helped me was reversing my cowlick. It wasn't natural...my childhood barber trained it into my hair, and it was disrupting the flow of sebum and blood flow across my scalp. I was going prematurely bald at 27 when my siblings of older ages hadn't started yet! So paying attention to other outside forces can be helpful as well, as reversing the cowlick has taken years of experimentation and militant attention.
What is cowlick if I may ask?
@@JulianMtravels it's hair that grows the oppisite of the rest of your hair. It can stick out in different directions or have a swirl pattern.
Lots of people with relaxed hair would get a cowlick from wrapping their hair in the same direction often. One area would form a cowlick from being trained to stay in that area.
God only knows how much I love your videos. Thank you for being so informative 🙏🏾
This was another great video. I'm so glad you're helping me educate myself. And providing the tools I need for my hair journey.
My sister has finer strands but her hair is past mid back and very strong shiny to the point at first glance it looks like Cambodian yaki lol she wears a lot of buns and they look great. She gets good length retention because she moisturizes every day regardless if her hair feels dry or not and she doesn’t use a ton of different products or fuss around with a lot of styles
Amber D. I feel like I need to moisturize often too. Can you tell me how she moisturizers for length retention.
What does she use to moisturise?
Ok so I asked her and this is a direct copy and paste from a text she sent me:
Hey so I use a mixture of avocado/coconut/jojoba then shea butter over it. Coconut oils in my conditioner. Coconut oil my main go-to. A lot of ppl for some reason don’t like it but it works for me! The key is I always use some oil to moisturize then seal it with Shea butter
Hope that helps ladies! I don’t know exactly what products she uses (didn’t ask) but products are completely subjective depends on what your hair likes. I’m sure it’s not expensive and it’s something that can be found at Target or some beauty supply shop because my sister doesn’t roll with overly expensive/boutique hair products that are hard to come by.
Amber D. Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.😊
Amber D. Thanks Amber!
This video gave me life. Now I understand that I need to focus on increasing the density of my hair, even if only a little. My hair is more dense in the back than it is in the front so if I can increase the fronts density by just a little I will be very happy. Love my natural hair though and love that you did this series. THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART AND SOUL ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes, I’m anxiously waiting for a detailed video on gray hair and aging.

Thank you ... it takes a village lol
You and your channel are a treasure to the natural hair community! Great video! Thanks for sharing so much amazing content!!🥰
Thank you, thank you, thank you! The information and encouragement you have provided has helped me learn about, accept and appreciate my natural hair! This has really been helpful to me on my natural hair journey!
Nice pics Sis! Your skintone is BEAU-TI-FUL!
I’ve only watched two of your videos and I’m already obsessed
You have really helped me through my natural hair journey! I’m still working it
You just don’t know how helpful and eye-opening this video was for me. Natural hair is truly beautiful 💗✊🏾
Another informative video, thanks for taking the time to produce it and sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous! I love ALL of your videos. Thanks for everything you do!!!!
Love Islandboiphotography and have been waiting on the next one in this series!
Very pretty photo 😍And thanks for sharing video. So late didnt get notification
Thank you so much for all your videos! I like to revisit your past videos, as they are so informative. I love how you provide scientific data as well as encouragement for all naturals. Old school subscriber that’s still watching in 2021❤️
Your photos are beautiful queen 💖💖💖
This was very informative and helpful. Thanks
I love your channel sooo much thank you for your videos❤❤❤
My hair is both dense and fine but also thick and thin from top to bottom. From my forehead to the middle it’s dense and I think thin to normal size. While from middle to nape it’s thick but more fine than the top. The nape is like S and maybe some I very loose but as you move up a little it’s L to O for the most part and the very front it’s a mixture of like I and L together that’s makes it a different strand type. Never was bothered to to type my hair before because I treat it all the same and that other type chart was confusing and lame but this is more better to understand. Though I already mostly figured out what my hair needs already this is nice for the people who still need . Great video I was never this early before. 😃😃😃
Omg im so glad i came across this channel but theres so many videos and so much information i cant wait to learn 😩🤝
Girrrrllll those pictures are GORGEOUS!!!! 😍😍😍
You are a naturally beautiful woman but I love, love, love these photos of you in them. I have thick and dense hair but I think your onion juice recipe is thickening my hair even more. I have noticed this change a few months now. And the color of my hair is so black not that I'm complaining. I need to change this old photo and put up a recent one. Thanks to you and your wonderful tips. As usual thanks for all the effort you put into these videos for us to benefit from. Patiently waiting for the next video.
This is the most informative and honest airing ive cime across. Especially for people who want to begin the journey of growing their fine sparse hair like me. Thank you so much sisi❤
You’re welcome. Happy to help 💚
Great video! Super informative!
What an informative and enjoyable video! This makes my healthy hair journey feel much easier to accomplish.
So umm.. You look phenomenal ✌🏽💅🏾🧖🏾♀️
Thanks Gurl
GreenBeauty : Absolutely; It’s a fact. Keep up the excellent work - We appreciate you.
Can you please do a video on collagen peptides and the benefits of using to help grow your hair, thank you
6.15 I needed to hear that. Thanks for sharing..just discovered your channel. Cant wait to get real knowledge from you. Thank you
Im so lucky That I discovered your Channel ! Your so real ! N ur Voice is amazing
Thank you so much I was suffering with protein overload and I haven’t really got into yoga but it makes total sense and plus I did it during this video and I feel great now 😂✨ Love ya 💗
Super beautiful pix!!!😍🤩💕💖
I have very dense, medium-fine, low porosity hair . I do still have to do at least 8-12 sections when handling it & I can't achieve a good stretch w/o a little heat because my hair shrinks in twist but my hair has been THRIVING thanks to your helpful videos ! And I have your PH balancing spritz for my ends and edges and let me just say that this is the by far the most healthy my hair has been since starting my journey almost 4 years ago. My edges have NEVER been this thick . Thank you so much ! ❤😊❤
This sounds just like my hair. Dense and medium-fine. In fine areas (mostly my back and some of my front) my hair tangles up soo badly! takes me hours to detangle.
Your illustrations are amazing
this cleared up so much to me cause my hair looks sooo thick until i flat iron it and its all flat you know no layers looks like i have less hair but its dense but fine at the same time
Simply beautiful!! Green Beauty is truly Black Beauty!
You guy's forgive me cause I"m in my feelings.I love people who like helping and educating other's.Green Beauty you are learning me things I never knew and I am a great grandma...transitioning both in going natural and ...grey.My hair is thicker since I have not permed or dyed for six months so I"m not sure what to do but you"ve got me on the path to learning,I thank you kindly for showing love.
No matter how much I think I know, I always learn something from your videos 👍🏾❤️
Your voice is amazing - so soothing and the information is presented is easy to understand and motivational. Thanks,
Thank you for addressing this subject. I like the way you talk about ALL hair types and characteristics. It's very helpful.
Just to add my 2¢, Biotin, as well as MSM, caused an increase in facia hair for me so I stopped using it. Not cute!
I also find that henna helps with thickness. The way it coats my stands makes them appear thicker. Nothing drastic, but it's a healthy choice.
OMG! Such beautiful pics!!! ❤
This video was so informative!!!! Thank you so much 😊. May you do a video on henna, cassia etc. vs hydrolyzed wheat protein please 😬?
You look Amazing in the pictures. Thank you so much for quality education in every video I really appreciate you.
Gorgeous pictures of you! And, another wonderful video, which is helping me to understand my hair more and more. It seems my hair is fine and dense. I have always said, about my hair "It is fine, but I have a lot of it." These days I am happy to still have hair on my head, as I will be reaching the wondrous age of 73 in June! I have an autoimmune condition and take medications, which contributed much to thinning over the past 10 years. Yet, when I take my twists down, my hair appears full... At the beginning of February, I started using your Onion Juice recipe weekly and I added ginger to the onion, garlic and red pepper. I love it and see great benefits so far, including a slight increase in fullness and about an inch of growth!
I have had a burning question for several weeks for you, if you do not mind. Why did you not include Rice Water rinses in your new Onion Juice regime last year? I have included Rice Water rinses, along with the Onion Juice prepoo, so I know it will be difficult to determine, which one contributed what... But I do know that the Onion Juice mix is my favorite. The Rice Water contributes to dryness, which is inherently problematic for me...
Sorry about the rambling long comment...
i so much love your page..learning alot mehnn
Hello Greenbeauty, what is your night time routine with your twist? what do you do to keep your hair so professional/great looking day after day with your twist looking so fresh.
I've tune in my whole family and friends to your channel, thank you for all the information and products!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful teaching video 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
What are some herbal rinses products you’d recommend? And is this something you do before your leave in conditioner?
Beautiful pics sis!
I saw that on Instagram and didn't even noticed it was you but sis you killed it
Muy interesante tu vídeo, sobre nuestros pelo. Gracias.
Gorgeous glam photos!
You are a blessing, thank you for educating us 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you ☺️
Hey! I'm always early for your videos!
#NotificationGang !!!
Gurrrlll! You in that dress! Fabulous! Gawjus! Love it! Is that dress available for us plain folk though?
I love your videos!
Okay check you out with the slay!! 😍🔥❤️
My hair is dense and fine. I always wish it was thicker! I love the info on your channel
I was thinking of applying henna to my hair and then to my scalp every few months to bulk up my hair so that it doesn't break easily. I have fine hair that has medium density.
Wow I just learned of you from RUclipsr Nappyfu and I just caught up with this series. Can't wait for the next video!!! 🤗😄
Dope photoshoot BTW,love it ...You are beautiful.
I wish I had thick and dense hair. It's so beautiful
I learn so much from your VERY INFORMATIVE videos...and I share with friends.
Thank you 1,000x's
Thank you so much Miss Vicki !!!

Hi GreenBeauty
I am currently taking multivitamins with 150mcg would that be enough for my Biotin intake per day or would I need to up the doses?
Please respond.
Lol your voice is so soothing. I am disappointed when the video ends. Great content also.
Thank you for another video!!! Can you do another video on different patterns of baldness in women?
Hey - I posted some videos in the past about different type of pattern baldness. Here are the links:

@@GreenBeauty thank you!!!!
Ayeee first comment we livee😄great video
Ayeeee 🤗
Thank you very much for the video, as always great content! :-) Looking forward to try the thread tip. Do you remember what density the thread you got was? If I'm not mistaken, I've seen them in stores offered in different thickness (btw I live in Switzerland, maybe it's different elsewhere...)
Also, I've seen dramatic improvement in my hair thickness since I've started doing protein treatments, worked much much better than rice water for me. And product wise: Camille Rose offers great moisturizing products that do not leave oily films or weigh your hair down. You feel like you're touching your hair, moisturized and non greasy!
Great videos!!!
Wonderful video, professional presentation, educational, encouraging. Your voice is very soothing; it was a pleasure listening and learning from you, thank you.
Thank You 😊
I have constant crown balding . I need help 😢😢😭
