Its so nice to see an older black woman without a WIG. Its so nice to see a bw with her own natural healthy longer hair.
When I go out in public you can count the number of ikder black women with their own hair, without wigs.
It's like wowwwww , when i actually see one.
Thank you Tina Love! I appreciate it so much!
A lot of older black women suffer from health challenges that end up impacting their health and hair. Unfortunately, our community did not always embrace natural hair and most of us had relaxers by the time we were 13 but were never taught how to care for our hair. I had COVID last year and developed telogen effluvium, which resulted in significant hair loss. This is when I embarked on my natural hair journey and actually learned about my hair texture and how to properly care for it...I'm 57. So, maybe those ladies you are seeing wearing wigs just have not been taught how incredible our hair truly is. I hate that I had to have a health crisis to learn about my hair, but I'm glad I'm loving my hair today.
Hello! Thank you for generous sharing information on the proper care of virgin and natural hair. Many people don’t realize nutrition is absolutely important for total hair health and wellbeing. The hair wears and styles much better when the strands are nourished from the inside out. Conditioning the hair externally is absolutely essential for maintaining healthy hair as well. Keep up the great and excellent service , Ms. Karen. And once again, thank you for all the good work that you do.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. It is so important for to push the message of health especially as it relates to maintaining healthy hair. I appreciate your encouragement and support.
@@KarenofCurlHouseYou so are welcome. I’m very delighted to support and encourage you.
Your hair is beautiful, and looks healthy. Keeping the hair healthy really adds to length retention. Thanks for sharing your routine.

I just got mines off. 7 months ago,what all I need to do? My hair all ways been very long. But not it’s really short. It will not grow or thicker. Can you please help me?
These are great tips
Hey Gorgeous! Thank you so much! You name made me smile 🤗
Ooooh, I like your short hair sooo much!!!!!!! I'm trying to get my hair to look that good but I have to work a little on my sides to thicken and fill in. I really like that cut!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey there! Oh I LOVED it! I reclaimed so much time from not fooling around with my hair!!!!!! Lol
You are incredible.
Thank you so much 🙌🏾
Oh my god I just subscribed. You have given me hope. It’s The short hair comment. I’ve cut mine a lot just like yours and have grown it out and worn my hair all kinds of ways but this last time it’s just growing out weird. After I had my last son, who is 5 years old now, my hair growth has not been the same. I’m 46 now and I too have made lifestyle changes.
My hair is growing but slower than usual so it seems and it’s slightly uneven. It’s in a short afro now past the twa stage. I have been debating on cutting it back off again because I don’t think I’ll ever see my old length again. It would be like yours by now how I kept getting wash n go’s. I just made a decision to last night to go back to that style. If your hair can grow this long in 3 years mine can too. Hopefully I can stay patient in the process lol.
Hey Jennifer! Yes! Patience is key! Lifestyle changes are key! So glad you taking the lifestyle approach!! Yay! And wash n go keeps the hair moisturized and moisturized hair minimizes breakage which helps to retain moisture! Yay!
Here's a video that may help a bit with hair growth as well: ruclips.net/video/HtEzyOu1DPQ/видео.html
I teach a health and hair growth 7 week virtual program. I'm concluding the current cohort for this year, but launching my next one in January. Here's the waitlist if you want more info: mailchi.mp/341fe6320a7b/health-hairness-program
@@KarenofCurlHouse It’s been about 5 years since I’ve worn my hair in a wash n go. I think this was will be my permanent look this time around! You’ve given me hope! P.S I ordered your hair products the other day. I can’t wait to use them! 😊
Enjoyed going down memory hair lane with you. You look so different in each of your pictures😅. Time do bring about a change. Thanks for sharing.🎉
Request: Video (s) on how curly/coily hair was taken care of in the past in comparison to now please and thanks🧐🤔🙂.
Hey Lyna! Thanks a bunch! Do you mean how it was taken care of in the 70s (that far in the past)? Just want to get clarity because it’s a great video!
@@KarenofCurlHouse If it was like a video series you could go back as far as before the colonizers came to this country and how the indigenous Niiji (who are misidentified as African American/black) used to take care of their hair or if not feasible to do so you can go back as far as grandparents day (40's,50's etc)
If too much then go for what you know and do best 😁
@@lnyawilliamsmoorell5061 I studied the history of our hair actually and I found it fascinating! I LOVE HISTORY! So yes - I love it! Let me think it thru to determine the best way to bring forth the videos.
@@KarenofCurlHouse 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you Karen. I too have learned that I have to change part of my routine. Coconut oil is a terrible pre poo for me! Lol. My hair was still hard to detangle. My hair is 4B, with a lot of 4C
Try Babassu Oil! It’s a great alternative
@@KarenofCurlHouseThanks! 😀
Ladies what are y’all using for a dry scalp?
@@latoyagraham9390 I use sweet almond oil or jojoba oil. Once in a while hair grease! Lol
Thank you 😊 nice vid what do you or can we use for a protein treatment?
Thanks for the info I have been struggling for a while 9/10/23. Your beautiful with short and long hair. I am 61 and I have more gray than my mother had and she was 80
You are so welcome! I have several videos on gray hair care as well. Here are a few: ruclips.net/user/liveRNn5rUqC2nA

@@KarenofCurlHouse thank you
I just recently learned what pre poo was and started incorporating it into my wash day. I did not want to add another step. But that step has made shampooing a little easier because my hair is no longer tangled when I wash it. I’ve been using a pre Poo that I picked up at the store but I think I’ll try it with the babassu oil next. Thank you!
Yay! That’s awesome! Which one did you pic up in the store?
@@KarenofCurlHouse Hello! I’m currently using African Pride, Aloe & Coconut Water, Pre-Shampoo. It works well but I’m curious to see if babassu oil will do the job. I’ve tried coconut oil and it works well too. Thank you for all your knowledge. It’s made a difference for me.
NEW SUBBIE! ❤
Welcome to the Curl House Community 💜
You always get a thumb’s up from me! Splendid information that I can return to again and again. I love your T-shirt’s message. Too often Black people reference “good hair” as straight hair. Love this video! And your product line looks fabulous! 🎉
Hey there! i appreciate it so much! I designed this t shirt myself actually! 💜
@@KarenofCurlHouse Absolutely awesome!!! Love it!
@@claudiamoss7670 🙌🏾💜
Always...you are welcome!!!
I drink plenty water, but I can’t drink too much after 7:30 pm because I usually have to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. It doesn’t happen often, but I’m definitely cautious about it.
Yes! Me too! i got to bed late so I stop drinking water at around 10pm LOL!
That’s just in the beginning. After a while, your body gets used to the new intake of water/liquids and you will be able to monitor the frequent urges to urinate.
Hi Ms. Karen
I wanna be like u when U grow up. Where do I start with weights? I need some muscle tone.
Blessings
❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing such wonderful information! I’m going on 66 in a few weeks but, I haven’t embraced my gray hair yet. Some people look beautiful in gray but, I look older. I tried to dye my hair naturally using organic henna powder then organic indigo powder. It was a disaster for me. I found it on RUclips. I didn’t know Henna was permanent and the Indigo powder didn’t work. My hair felt dried out, brittle and breaking. What can I do to save my hair and do you know what is best for dying hair. I will truly appreciate your help. Thank you!
Do you do the ACV rinse AND the protein treatment on the same day?
I have started injecting 3 months ago. There are some improvements but not where I was totally ball at temple. I have had a biopsy and was diagnosed with hormonal alopecia. I am learning a lot with your videos. I need help!
This is awesome Alida! It's a journey! Keep going..and keep growing!
I wish we were told about our hair texture changing. Im 53 and had no idea. I was traumatized and now figuring out what to do.
Is your hair graying?
Hello Karen: to seal, what is applied first, the oil or the moisturizer? Thank you~
Hey there! Moisturizer (water based product) then oil.
Hi Beautiful! Do you have a video on how to prepoo?
Hey there! I think I discuss it more here: MY NATURAL HAIR WASH DAY ROUTINE

@@KarenofCurlHouse Thank you love!!
@KarenofCurlHouse Thank you! I actually am just playing your full Playlist, binge mode since it's quiet @ work today w/all this rain and am realizing that you're answering the questions in other videos. I'm sorry lol but thank you. I'll message you back if I have a question that you DIDN'T address lol. Thanks lovey! 💖
Love your presentation…clear and easy to understand. Also the show and tell illustrations are so helpful.
@@monicabaptiste7778 much much appreciated!
In another video you said your hair came out in 3 months from stress from your studies of becoming a tricologist. How did you grow your hair out that time.
Hello! I did the big chop a few months back after being relaxed my whole life and I would like to regrow it but I have many questions. Do you do consultations via phone or should I just ask my questions here? I'm from Canada and I'm 18. 😭
Hey there! I know longer offer consultations, however I am always looking for video content. Send me some questions and I can create a video, or redirect you to a video I've already created.
What could I use to grow my hair out it's very a
Short now please help
What vitamins
My hair is 85%grey and I have fine textured hair. I am seeing a tremendous change in my hair, it is very dry and it’s hard to achieve the style that I am used to with my twist outs. It drinks up oil and most of the products for styling has alcohol which makes my hair hard and I am prone to excessive shrinkage. I can’t seem to find the right products for my grey, fine textured hair, I am 4A…Help😐
Loving your beautiful hair. When will you have available products that have sold out?
Hi
I just started watching you.
Now can you please tell me what have that will help my hair too many it grow.
I hope you can help.
Thank you
How to make the ACV rinse?
Hi Eunice! 8 tablespoons of ACV to 2 cups of water.
Also Karen, just out of curiosity, is your hair 4A? It's very pretty!
Hey There! It’s 4a/4b
@@KarenofCurlHouse WOW! You are lucky! Lol. I know. I still have to work on my mind set! Lol
@@luwanabennett1054 Yes. We’ve all had to change our mindset about our hair at some point in our journey, One of my followers actually just asked me to do a series on the history of our hair and I am certainly going to do it! It will give us a different perspective on our hair and it’s evolution and I believe it will help you and others to embrace the hair we’ve been blessed with.
@@KarenofCurlHouseThank you very much, Karen. We appreciate everything you do to help us! ♥️♥️♥️
I'm 45 I've been trying everything my hair growth is slow I use 2 hand twist all day but just no change I got veganic oil hair still nothing I need help how🤔 can I get ur products

Goodmorning Mrs. Karen, I have a question that i hope you can answer. My 2 yr old granddaughter's curl pattern is gone due to my daughter putting a rice mask in her hair. Do you think it can/ will be restored? I dont know what to do at this point. Thank you in advance for your desperately needed advice.
Hey there! Generally speaking a rice mask was probably too strong for her hair as they are typically intense protein masks. I suggest you followup with deep moisturizing conditioners to balance the protein. Try moisturizing treatments once a week or on wash days. I don’t think it’s permanent. Was heat applied to her hair or just the mask?
@@KarenofCurlHouse ooooh thank you so much for replying. She said she only used the cool setting on the blow dryer. Is that still considered heat damage?
@@dw170. No its not. The mask was just probably too strong for her hair. You can also do a apple cider vinegar rinse (mix 2 cups of water with 8 tablespoons on acv) and poor it on her hair after you shampoo it. Then followup with a moisturizing treatment. DON'T GET IT IN HER EYES. That will help rid the hair of buildup as well.
@@KarenofCurlHouse You are truly a blessing. Thank you so much for your help, we will be trying everything you've suggested. Have a wonderful day!
What is your Apple cider vinegar rinse recipe? I’ve always wanted to try it, and I’m a little nervous. Do you wash afterwards?
I do the rinse after I shampoo and before I condition. I use 2 cups of water to 8 tablespoons of ACV. Give it a try!!
@@KarenofCurlHousethanks so much!!
Do you do it every 2 weeks?
@@ladyt3182 I do it about once a month in general but sometimes more if I have a ton of oils on my hair.
🎉
Thank you!!!
Do you treatl with alopecia?
Hello there! I don't think I understand your question. Can you explain.
Does a sealant penetrate the hair strands?
Hey Brenda! Some oils penetrate better than other oils. So castor, jojoba, and sweet almond are sealers. Coconut and Babassu penetrate the strands. But ultimately, the oils wears off so its not an absolute seal but does help with lock in the moisture a bit more.
@@KarenofCurlHouse oh, okay, now I know the difference between oils, & I'm absorbing all of this knowledge 💝 thanks again!
Hi what is your ratio for ACV rinse. Thanks
Hey there! 2 cups of of Water and 8 tablespoons of ACV
Thank you!
@@KarenofCurlHouse, how long do you keep the ACV in your hair before rinsing it out
Do you do a pre poo when you clarify?
Hey Ebony! Yes I do.
@@KarenofCurlHouse ok ty and one more question. Do you do the ACV rinse after deep conditioning, before deep conditioning or before shampooing?
@@ebonywatson9939I do mine after deep conditioning. She probably does too.
My niece suffers from bladed spots and she's under 40 and it bothers her so much as you can imagine. What suggestion would you have for her? Thanks
Hey there! Bald spots can come from many many reasons. its best to get to the root cause. Have you seen a dermatologist to get an diagnosis? In order to treat the hair loss, it is imperative that she gets to the root cause. I can suggest many topical things to do, but identifying the root cause is key. Here's a video about a hair restoration journey that takes a holistic approach to hair regrowth. ruclips.net/video/ZVfxeFA1QP0/видео.html
What about if you get color on your hair?
Hey there? Can you clarify your question? Does color affect hair growth? 🤔
Yes it affect hair growth? I try to keep my hair moisturized.
@@LLCoolCooper Yes it does! Permanent color stripes your hair of it natural moisturized making it drier. Have you incorporated protein treatments as well?
@@KarenofCurlHouse what type of protein treatment would you recommend?
No I don’t use any protein treatments. What kind do you suggest?
Ok so u know my 4c hair wont look like yours.
Hey Latoya! Nope it won't -- but it will look like YOURS....In all its FABULOUSNESS! 💜 🥰
Coconut oil is not for the hair. Glad you stopped using it. I use to do natural hair too. Coconut oil can actually dry out the hair. I use to use ACV to cleanse locs. It’s the truth!
Yasss! I love ACV! Thanks so much for your feedback 🙌🏾
Thank You Jennifer for confirming about Coconut Oil and the hair!
