Halfrican Beaute your hair has flourished so much in these years. So happy you learn a lot about your hair, to teach us. Your videos have helped me learn a ton, since I have a similar texture
Halfrican Beaute ily ur amazing 😊u have helped me since my big chop and I'm in the UK so I dont have many products like you but im starting to love my hair because of u ❤ im a OG been with u since day
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 I'm going to remember this comment on my weak days 😅😥😭😭😭😭😭😭 I'm transition (1 year and a few weeks to in so far) and I hate it but I'm not big chopping it until 2 years so pray for me 😂😂😂
I think the moral of this story is you can do both. You can weaves and wigs and still wear your natural hair. That's the special thing about Black women's hair. It's so diverse
I think the moral of the story is it’s best to wear wigs, less intrusive than a weave and so better for retaining length and taking care of your actual hair.
Oh sweetie don't give up. I struggled for 3 years with retaining length, but when I finally got the hang of it, siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssss,😆😆. It started with me loving my hair and myself. Honestly , I'd do my natural hair journey all over again, cos I had to learn to love myself no matter how I look and shove people's opinions out of my mind. It's been awesome 😁
You're such an inspiration. You don't know how many times I've heard someone say black girls hair doesn't grow and how mad it used to make me. I wanted to break the stereotype for so long and now I don't care because it's just nonsensical. Everyone's hair grows, it's length retention that everyone doesn't keep. You made me realize that so thanks isi I love you so much😙😭💕
FIRST OF ALL, everytime you say sew in, Im like sew in where? Girl your weave was FLAWLESS, you were slaying the game! It literally just looks like you blowdried your hair!
I'm just watching this for the FIRST TIME EVER! And I am literally about to cry because the struggle with type 4 hair is REAL and I have been at the same length as when I started my natural hair journey about 2 years ago. I feel as though a lot of natural-haired RUclipsrs sugarcoat the process in which one has to go through to get that desired length, but but you gave the the full journey not leaving out nothing. I am SUPER HAPPY I came across this video when I did. :)
OMG... finally found my natural hair twin. I was just starting to become discouraged cause it's been 3 yrs and though my hair is shoulder length flat ironed, the shrinkage is REAL yall. Seeing the length and changes of your journey... so I carry on!
VERY, VERY informative..❗I still struggle after 4 years of being natural. I've stopped the weekly silk pressing (finally😂) and I'm trying to embrace my "mix" texture. THANX SO MUCH👍💕
sensimania Yes...But it wasn't anything horrific! I had those ends cut away in order to redevelop my curl pattern. My hair wasn't growing as fast as it should😥 So Hopefully, these next few months of no heat use, will allow it to grow longer
I really enjoyed the REAL comments u were thinking during each phase of ur journey because we all gave those thoughts and it's a relief to know I'm not alone!
I also used protein treatments waaaaayyyy too much.. At first it worked and then my hair freaked out and I kid you not, it looked as if my curls fainted. How can hair faint? I can't explain it my friend. But hair freaked out. It acted as if I had processed it and it started breaking off and my curls were still passed out but I guess you live and you learn with natural hair. I am now midback length THANK YOOOUUUU JESUS *busts out tambourine and starts praise dancing*
You literally just made me die of laugher at "how can hair faint" lmfaoooo girrrllllll, i feel you tho 100%! One of my first huge mistakes as a natural smh
Jenny Oyster 😂😂😂😂 It's true 😂😂😂 they were all laid out like they caught the holy ghost 😂😂 the wouldn't stretch any longer or shrink up either 😂😂 It was a traumatic time in my hair journey
Sunflower Songs Girlllll.....I definitely feel your pain, lol. That's how my hair was when it was heat damaged. I couldn't take it so I went to cutting, lol.
So so so proud of you and your transformation has touched my heart! Every negative thing people said about black hair has been proven wrong and I appreciate someone as beautiful as yourself to represent us...its God's gift. Keep flourishing love!!
I really enjoy watching your hair videos! I’ve been natural my whole life but I normally keep my hair pretty simple with cornrows and twists. You’re one of the Naturalistas who inspire me to try out new styles! Keep doing you ✨
This video gave me hope. I’ve been on my natural hair journey for 2 years now and have not seen much growth. I’m still learning how to care for my hair in this state. I’m so grateful I found this channel 😘
I almost cried watching this because i started going natural last year and I’m still learning and wow just wow I’m impressed how far your hair has come shit if you can do it I can too !!! Thank you so much 💖💖
I'm very proud of you I've been going through my natural hair with you, I might not have the 4 hair but girl ik the struggle, I've been watching your videos since day one never missed a video since and your hair journey also helped me on my journey, I'm so grateful for you and thankful for you as well CONGRATS ON 4 YEARS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've been watching natural hair videos for the longest but this the first time I believe I have come across your page, but the beginning of your natural hair journey reminds me so much of my own journey, except I too died my hair and stopped the natural hair journey after many failed attempts and not getting the results that I wanted.
As a natural for 2 years the journey was hard and still is. I dont fully understand or know how to handle my hair but it's getting easier. I have realized that sew in weaves and wigs grow my hair. while with braids I seem to lose more hair then I grow. So I stop braids all together and damn your girl hair is growing healthy and long. I did trim my hair this weekend and as soon as I take off my wig or weave I do hot oil treatments and give my hair time to air and just be free. My weaves and wigs stay in for about 1 or 2 months and between that time my hands are out my head and my hair gets it down time . I found this works for me but the shrinkage is a killer I'm still working on handling the shrinkage and my hairline but its growing back with the natural oils slowly
OMG!!!... I had to comment on this one lol... this has to be the BEST natural hair journey I've ever seen. I'm trying this natural hair journey for the 2nd time. I start to feel a little insecure without the sew-ins, etc.. but i'm sick of looking at my damaged hair. I'm good at hair braiding so i installed some faux locs last week. This video has truly inspired me to continue with what I've started. I cannot wait to get my hair as healthy as yours. Thanks for this video!
Omg you don’t know how encouraging watch you is and how much you’ve helped me on my natural journey. My hair is finally growing and your tips helped me to find products to actually moisturize my hair and not just make it greasy..... Carols daughters coco creme coil enhancing moisture butter is the best
I love the transparency here. A series of bad hair decisions but since you didn't give up, you figured out what works best. I must say your hair is gorgeous.
I’m considering cutting mine again!!! Thanks lady! Your hair is so cute and you are such a beautiful person so keep that confidence lady!!! I loved that fro hawk picture!!!!
I love it! Thank you so much for sharing. I went through a lot of the same things that you went through. I tried the natural hair journey like 5 times. Once was not my choice, my hair fell out after I had my last son 7 years ago (hormones etc. But extreme!) So at that time, for almost 2 years, I wore half wigs and sew ins. Then I finally decided to go and get my hair straighten AND when I did I was AMAZED, my hair went from bald spots and half inch in certain parts of my hair and 2 inches in other parts of my hair to bra strap length in less than 2 years. I was sooo excited and shocked! I did end up getting a relaxer smh and getting about 3 to 4 inches cut off because of the tugging and pulling while doing my own sew ins. But anyway, the main thing is, I am natural again now, (since 2015) and I want my length back in its natural state, (collar bone length now after 3 years)but HEALTHY this time! I am so glad that I stumbled across your channel. 😁 This video gives me hope and motivation to keep going. I was just thinking , 3 weeks ago about getting my hair cut to a short style and relaxed. But I want long, kinky curly hair. Help! Lol #notification team
I'm on my third natural hair journey and I hope I can get to the confidence level you're at now❤️ thank you for sharing this definitely inspired me to keep going with my journey!!
I love this!! I had really long thick hair, and over the course of college it got damages and started falling out. I get so frustrated looking back at what my hair used to be, but this gave me hope that I can still start over and grow my hair out
I haven't ever seen your videos before, but after watching this I just feel so inspired. I'm about to clip all of my ends, like you did. I know I probably sound like a mother for saying this, but I am so proud of you. P.s. I'm 18, about to graduate high school in June 2018, and then go to college in August 2018, so this really helped. Thanks!
I joined the #BeauteGang late but definitely went through all the natural hair videos and I’m absolutely loving the natural makeup tutorials! You’re amazing! #4CGang
😍😍😍😍 Just the motivation I needed! I made my first wig recently in hopes of growing my natural hair out. I big chopped October 2017. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!! I’m half Nigerian and half African American too....I thought no one would understand my struggle. Thanks for the tips as I feel my hair has plateaued on growth, but back to wigs I go! I’m learning this thing called Patience...;)
Okay This was the best Natural hair journey i've seen Hands Down This Encouraged me To continue with my natural hair journey and Be Patient with my hair and just Embrace it I swear your so inspiring I love u oso much...Girl I know this took u days To find the pics/videos..
Wow! I remember watching your video when you said you wanted to feel like a big sister to your audience and you honestly feel like one to me! Your advice has helped so much and I appreciate you doing what you do for RUclips ❤️ Keep thriving girl
Of all the natural hair videos on RUclips I have watched, this on mirrors my journey most. I cut the perm out of my hair back in 2012 and went through several disasters. The natural game was new and I had little guidance. I severely burnt my hair 3 times with the flat irons. I let my sister perm my new again virgins hair. She chose Dark and Lovely. My hair felt like straw afterwards with continuous shedding. After several deep moisturizing treatments I went back to braids and other protective styles. I started again and went through the weavesRus phase and that is where I am now. Thanks for this video. I am now a new subscriber!
You make me love my 4 type hair even more I use to be just like you not fond of it wanted to hide it but now im embracing it a lot more and after watching this ! makes me wanna take better care so my curls can be poppin like yours! keep going on your journey love !
OG. I always say to my friends that you are my hair goals. I big chopped May 2017 and my hair growth as of February 2018 is ridiculous. Thanks to your videos!!❤ Keep it going strong. Beauty gang
I laughed my ass off this entire video! I'm so happy to see a natural I can absorb information from. Our hair is so similar. And your personality is everything!! Love it!! Beautiful hair, beautiful journey, beautiful woman! Congrats sis!
I’m a brand new subscriber and I absolutely fell in love with your hair currently and enjoyed learning about your Hair journey! Best youtuber that I’ve found and you are most certainly my #HairGoal girl let me start investing in wigs 🙌🏽!! I think the less manipulation of your hair and like you said taking care of your hair underneath allows for major growth! Sis you did that 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Currently starting my natural hair journey and I agree it’s the hardest transition I really dislike my shrinkage and I have no idea how the heck to style my new hair but I’m trying to stay on it.. seeing your story is inspiring
I found your video a massive help I did the major big chop. And now growing out my sides as I've been shaving for years. Now it's time to get back to my natural self. Your fab lovely lady. And thank you once again .. lots of love your way 💖💖💖
This is just what I needed as I'm just starting my journey and trying out different products, I never relaxed my hair just straightened it so more heat damage than chemical. It was good to have a reminder that it takes time and that you have to figure out what works for your hair rather than taking what you see on the internet for gospel! I'm hesitant to cut my hair as you were but will definitely get rid on these ends and join wig gang! Love your videos and channel all the way from the UK!🇬🇧
I remember I subscribed to you when you only had the boyfriend tag up!! Love you girl. You have an OG right here and trust I'll always be watching your vids!

I’m in the same boat. Took a year to get 6 inches 🥲. Slowly but surely my hair is growing. It’s been one hell of a journey

I avoid hair journey videos because they can get boring...but this was fun to watch. 👍🏾
Yes I hate when they just sit in front of the camera and talk. Bor-ing 😴
OMG... finally found my natural hair twin. I was just starting to become discouraged cause it's been 3 yrs and though my hair is shoulder length flat ironed, the shrinkage is REAL yall. Seeing the length and changes of your journey... so I carry on!
Wait but yo’ hair was never short...
Topic Train girl your crazy her hair wasn't Even hitting her shoulders.

Thank you! Twa means TEENY WEENY AFRO...no shade I love her hair but I didn't see a twa anywhere.

Markita Riley still wasn’t short 🤷🏽♀️ it wasn’t a twa so
Keep doing what you do! Your videos never fail to put a smile on my face!!!
VERY, VERY informative..❗I still struggle after 4 years of being natural. I've stopped the weekly silk pressing (finally😂) and I'm trying to embrace my "mix" texture.
THANX SO MUCH👍💕
Did you get heat damage from silk pressing weekly?
sensimania Yes...But it wasn't anything horrific! I had those ends cut away in order to redevelop my curl pattern. My hair wasn't growing as fast as it should😥 So Hopefully, these next few months of no heat use, will allow it to grow longer
Typical Tink, I'm sure it'll grow longer now hun

I started again and went through the weavesRus phase and that is where I am now.
Thanks for this video. I am now a new subscriber!
Can you do a video on how we can tell if a hair product is working for us or not? Like what are the signs?

OG. I always say to my friends that you are my hair goals. I big chopped May 2017 and my hair growth as of February 2018 is ridiculous. Thanks to your videos!!❤ Keep it going strong. Beauty gang
I wish I could like this video twenty times. I definitely needed to see this.❤️
I laughed my ass off this entire video! I'm so happy to see a natural I can absorb information from. Our hair is so similar. And your personality is everything!! Love it!! Beautiful hair, beautiful journey, beautiful woman! Congrats sis!
I’ve seen the most hair growth from my diet ever since I did a big chop I’ve been vegetarian for 2-3 years and my hair grows quickly
I’m a brand new subscriber and I absolutely fell in love with your hair currently and enjoyed learning about your Hair journey! Best youtuber that I’ve found and you are most certainly my #HairGoal girl let me start investing in wigs 🙌🏽!! I think the less manipulation of your hair and like you said taking care of your hair underneath allows for major growth! Sis you did that 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Your hair growth is really amazing!! It’s nice to see you journey from beginning to now! I don’t really see that with other RUclipsrs.
Currently starting my natural hair journey and I agree it’s the hardest transition I really dislike my shrinkage and I have no idea how the heck to style my new hair but I’m trying to stay on it.. seeing your story is inspiring
I’m watching this again cs I need the motivation to do my hair today
I found your video a massive help I did the major big chop. And now growing out my sides as I've been shaving for years. Now it's time to get back to my natural self. Your fab lovely lady. And thank you once again .. lots of love your way 💖💖💖
This was honestly the motivation that I needed! Love you for this! ❣️
You look so pretty with the shrinkage!!! You did not need the length! Very pretty!
I love it! I'm totally inspired by your hair journey. Your hair is beautiful and it is #Goals!
This is just what I needed as I'm just starting my journey and trying out different products, I never relaxed my hair just straightened it so more heat damage than chemical. It was good to have a reminder that it takes time and that you have to figure out what works for your hair rather than taking what you see on the internet for gospel! I'm hesitant to cut my hair as you were but will definitely get rid on these ends and join wig gang! Love your videos and channel all the way from the UK!🇬🇧
Omg this video is so inspiring I was literally just thinking about giving up but after seeing this...oh no ma’am
Your weaves were so popping I couldn’t tell the difference from which one was a weave and which one was your real hair ! 💜
🤣 yasss wigs makes my hair grow as well. This fall/winter wigs it is! Love your hair btw
OGGG MEMBER SINCE 2016!! Been there for the original guy talk👏🏽👏🏽
I remember I subscribed to you when you only had the boyfriend tag up!! Love you girl. You have an OG right here and trust I'll always be watching your vids!
