I tried this and I must say this method gave me the sleekest results but due to my hair type, I look should be on the packaging for wave caps because when I say my waves be on swim. I'm not lying. Lol, but I guess that's as sleek as my hair can get.
Jessica DeAnna this is true like when I do buns with jell it always ends up all curly and wavy af. It never gets slick. This is the only way my hair some what slick
This just encouraged me enough again to try this shit as it was a total fail from another tutorial this week. I have a mix of very coarse(thick-stranded) 4a(mostly 4b) curls that will NOT slick down. No sleekness at all. I'm sure I'll use half a bucket of gel and some oil, but I'm about to swim as good as I can.
In the middle of watching this, I started laughing because I started thinking about how wild it is that we gotta go through all of this just to get a sleeked down ponytail. Shoot, I can't even put my hair in a ponytail without manipulating it in some kinda crazy way. BTW your hair looked really nice in the end.
This is by far one of the best ways I've seen this done for us type 4 THICK NATURAL HAIR GIRLS! This way makes so much sense! I love it! Thank you so much for for sharing! 😍
I've been on this journey of not pressing my hair for about a month and your video is by far the best I've seen for thick kinky hair. I will continue to try to get my hair sleek. Continue posting and thanks!!
Lmaoo the just cracked me up!! haha so glad you found this video so now you can put your hair in its place girrrlllll!!! Get that #RESPEK and you're oh so welcome!!
Finally a video about slicking kinky hair down... almost EVERY other video is done by women with "easy" hair - and their methods DON'T work for us. THANK YOU!
Yes girl ik! That's why i had to put on the rest of my fellow thick haired naturals so we can ALL SLAY & get in formation lmao ;) Glad it was helpful boo!
my 14 yr old has super duper thick hair and we BOTH got so frustrated when it came time to do her a low bun. this helped us SO much and works for a high bun too! thx!
I never seen people do subsections when laying down their thick natural hair. It's sooooo much safer for your hair than just ramming the brush over and over in the same spot . Great video !
This is amazing!!! I have 3b/3c hair, and it's super thick, so I always get that weird hump in the back. I love your divide and conquer method! Great tutorial
Omg girl !!! Thick hair team! I have the same struggle and I use and do all the steps you do . I use castor oil and 24 hour edge tamer to keep it down ALL day . 3C and 4A too ❤️ I'm just so happy to see all this black girl magic lawddd 😍doing this style tonight
So glad I stumbled across your channel while looking for bun tutorials, I will practice this technique tonight in preparation for a job interview later on in the week. New sub and thanks!
I can do the hairstyle but it would mean lots of combing because my hair is very thick and I have tons of it. This video was really helpful because you really showed how to make it real sleek.
I am going to try this method. this definitely seems like it will work on people with thicker textured hair. I will let you guys know how it works for me. Thanks for sharing this video.
A scarf makes a world of difference. It will make the hair lay down 10 times better and that's what people don't realize. They well put all sorts of gels and pomades and wonder why their edges are actually laid. This is the secret touch😍
Wow watching this video is so inspirational ! You’ve come along way! Your hair has grown so muchhh, omg! I’m always watching your snaps and your growth and progression is amazing!!💞😻💯🙌🏿
I just tried this method and I must say I was feeling the hell outta myself lmao especially when I went out for my friend's b.day. I am so glad I came across this video thanks girl!
Thank you so much for this video! I've been trying to figure out ways to pull my hair back so that I can fit all of this thick hair under my hat for work. I'll def be giving this method a try! 🤗🤗
One of these days I will find the patience to do this method with my hair, I'm so lazy because my hair is so thick and it doesn't lay down for nothing LOL. I'll brush it up in a ponytail and people will give me compliments and I'm thinking to myself(if you only knew i didnt detangle this mane for 3 weeks) lol 3c/4a
Lol it's honestly not as tedious as it may look girl lol plus brushes tend to pull out our hair w/out us being aware so be careful with that! Haha but the way you're describing your hair... sounds like you got a lion's mane to tame! Lol #MayGodBeWithYou ;)
Boo, 5 heads don't stop the slayage! You can slay this style no doubt! & if the part down the middle ain't for u, I have a tutorial up on my channel of the same method but with a deep side part which will "take away" from the 5 head issue if u really have a problem with it, but don't let your forehead stop you from killing the game boo! ;)
Thank you for this video. I know I am very late. I have very thick natural hair and I followed your technique and today it came out look wonderful and sleek. Quick question, did you do your hair on freshly washed hair? I did mine last night on 1-week old hair just used a water bottle to make it damp! 😀😀😀 thanks again!! Loved the video!
Omg, thank God I saw this technique. Had to come on here to figure out how to lay my hair down for tomorrow, and this was the most helpful. New subscriber here too🖖🏽✌🏽️. Keep being Amazing hun❤️
Perfect timing! lol so glad u found my video boo & that it was helpful! Im already known you slayed! & Ayyyyeeee, welcome to the fammmbaammmm!!! & thanks so much love!
this is so awsome because i love wearing my curlys but i could only find people with 3b hair and finding you we have like the same hair type so your videos really helped me with for my hair... THANKS YOU😍
IKR!!!! my hair is so weird it has like almost have two differnt hair patterns and every one on youtube has like the same natural pattern. My hair is so frustrating to work with and yur hair is so similar i got so happy when i found you!
This video was soooo good! I’ve been using eco styler gel forever, but never thought to do it the way you did it! Love it. Definitely going to subscribe.
Girl ive been looking for your page to subscribe because ever since i saw this video i have been living in this hair style everyday😂 thank you for sharing & cant wait to see the rest of your techniques xoxo 💋
I'm so glad you explained this very well I can't wait to finally get these beady beads on my edges and my middle to lay down we are hair twins btw I'm 4 c in the middle, 4 b in the front, then in the back its this super long 3c tail hanging but this is my problem solver right chea!
looks great, I didn't know about the layering gel technique, that makes sense. I have 3b-4a hair. thank you, I also didn't know Jamaica black had a leave in conditioner. I just recently started using the castor oil. again, great tips, I subscribed 😁
omg thank you for this! I barely wear these types of buns bc its so hard to get my huge thick kinky hair to lay down flat! im gonna try this for school tomorrow!!
Lol well I'm so glad to hear i helped to answer a few of those questions!! And only time i experience frizz is if i don't sleep with a satin scarf on my head at night.
Do it! Do it! Do it! lol I promise you, this technique literally cures all thick hair probs when it comes to sleekin the shit outta somethin down haha excuse my language but it's just that real!
Thank you so much for this finally someone with my 3c/4a texture I'm definitely going to try this with the Eco! Did you feel like it dry it out and left flakes with the Eco styler?
I tried this and I must say this method gave me the sleekest results but due to my hair type, I look should be on the packaging for wave caps because when I say my waves be on swim. I'm not lying. Lol, but I guess that's as sleek as my hair can get.
Lol well im glad it semi work for ya! haha ;)
Jessica DeAnna my waves was swimming, lmao they kept going.
vivi_ etc might as well embrace it. 😂
Jessica DeAnna this is true like when I do buns with jell it always ends up all curly and wavy af. It never gets slick. This is the only way my hair some what slick
This just encouraged me enough again to try this shit as it was a total fail from another tutorial this week. I have a mix of very coarse(thick-stranded) 4a(mostly 4b) curls that will NOT slick down. No sleekness at all. I'm sure I'll use half a bucket of gel and some oil, but I'm about to swim as good as I can.

So many answers to so many issues I run into with sleek buns. I do have a question does your hair ever frizz up after you put the gel on?
Lol well I'm so glad to hear i helped to answer a few of those questions!! And only time i experience frizz is if i don't sleep with a satin scarf on my head at night.
love your hair its similar to mine & great vid , it was helpful !
Dooopppeeee! Glad this was helpful love!
I loved this video! Did you start this on semi-wet/damp hair?

Thank you so much for this finally someone with my 3c/4a texture I'm definitely going to try this with the Eco! Did you feel like it dry it out and left flakes with the Eco styler?
Not at all! Be sure to apply some type of oil before or after you set the style & you'll be gucci!
