- Waistlength 4C hair is something that I never thought that I would be able to reach at all! Though it has been a long time since I have uploaded, I am glad to be able to update you guys with waistlength 4C hair as an accomplishment among other amazing blessings that I have received throughout these past 6 months as well!
Even though I have managed to reach waistlength 4C hair, it doesn't come without its ups and downs. I will be sharing with you my waistlength 4C hair pros and cons in this video as well as a 4c hair length check along with some much-needed updates as to where the channel is going to be headed in the future.

May all the melanated women who desire it experience all of these pros and "cons" of abundant hair. Congrats!
Amen😭❤️
It actually looks longer than waist length. I'm soo proud of you. My hair has reached 16 inches using this method and I'm excited too see how long it gets
Thank you so much! That's awesome that you've grown your hair that long using the mini braid method! I'm excited as well, super excited!!
Definitely longer
Do your hair nightly by adding a lil bit of water then moisturizer and then finger detangle and put your hair in twists and pin twists around your head wear a satin bonnet or scraf. This way your hair gets trained to stay moisturized and detangled.
Ps. Your hair is tailbone or longer if you get it flat ironed and that doesn't mean silk press. I'm a newbie who has been natural my entire life but I was a straight natural from age 16. In 2k9 I transitioned to no heat. Look up lindsey Chris her hair iss tailbone natural but so thick. She does all these beautiful styles and she teaches you how to keep hair detangled from wash day til end of month
Congrats on reaching waist-length hair!💜 I'm in the tailbone-length hair crew, and to be honest, if you want to keep the length you may not want to do a lot with it. At any rate, there are a few channels that I watch and maybe they can be helpful if you are not already familiar with them. 1. Mrs. Charity Umar Natural Hair Care 2. Indigenous Strandz 3. Obaa Yaa Jones 4. If She So Pleases 5. Janet Davies 6. Cocoa in 京都 7. GreenBeauty 8. 22nd Century Natural Woman 9. KinkyStyles1980. There's a combo of 4b/4c and waist to thigh-length ladies on the list.
Thank you and that's awesome that you're tailbone length!! Okay, note taken, I'll do my best to not do too much to my hair in order to keep the length. I'm just trying to find hairstyles that I can do that look flattering on my hair that I don't have to do too much to. I'll definitely check out these RUclipsrs as well to try and establish a new routine that works better for me with the new length. Thank you so much, you are a hair life saver!!
@@EtherielleHB You're welcome. There aren't a lot of us who want to grow very long lengths. Sometimes the channels of the successful ones can be hard to find because they are smaller.
There are quite a few other RUclipsrs with tightly coiled, Afro-textured hair, like, “Eugenia Kelcy” and “Naturally High”. 🥰
Fiji hi
Aa@aaaaaaaaaa
Green beauty is my go-to channel
Greenbeauty has a good informative video about waist length routine.
One thing I immediately changed once I got to waist length was washing my hair once a month, cause weekly or bi-weekly was no longer ideal for my sanity or arms.
Thank you, I'll check out her routine! I agree with that wholeheartedly, I'm thinking of changing to once a month as well because washing biweekly is getting to be more and more difficult. I've got some experimenting to do!
I feel your excitement. I’ve been natural for 9 years and I’ll be waist length in a year or less and I probably won’t know how to act 🤣. I would’ve been there years ago but I’ve had so many set backs due to other people and mistakes I made during the first 5 years of being natural. Now I use mostly diy Ayurvedic products and don’t trust anyone with my hair. It’s still recovering from a stylist butchering it 3 years ago and thinning it out but it is longer and thicker now.
Yeah same here, the first 7-8 years I had no idea what I was doing until the last 3-4 years. Somehow everything just clicked lol! YES! I will ALWAYS swear by DIY Ayurvedic products! I'm glad your hair has gotten thicker and better as well! It's time that we take our hair back into our own hands!
@@EtherielleHB 🥰
I love finding fellow small youtubers with similar content to mine ^_^ I love that you actually did an entire 12 months. I've been doing between 6-9 months and that felt like forever! I loc my hair though, so it's interesting to see someone keeping braids in for 12 months. I didn't even know that was possible without the hair turning to locs. I feel the shock too, I still haven't gotten used to the new length, it's definitely noticeable that it's longer by the time it takes to care for it.
Congratulations! Your hair has grown so much. This is the motivation I need to keep going on the mini braids journey.
Thank you!! :)YES! Mini braids definitely work! Keep going, you got this!!❤
@@EtherielleHBwhy do they have to be mini, can't they be medium size and still retain length?
This was needed! You're wonderful and the way in which you speak and spread positivity about our hair is sure to touch many. ❤
Thank you! I really appreciate it! :)❤
Girl since I got to waist length , in fact since I'm natural , I'm the same way: I don't know what to do with my hair. I'm style challenged and a simple bun would take so much energy and time, cus my hair is thick coarse and kinky . One of the tricks is to definitely start on stretched hair. Braids or twists to stretch. There is a trick to put thick kinky hair into a bun by using two buns. Lmao at your hair pushing the bobby pins....so so true. It boils down to me being boring with my hair. its long and thick and braids get boring after a while. some days its a kinky natural looking wig I wear over some large plaits . I used to do mini plaits which helped grow my hair. I kept them in for 3-4 months at a time, washed and dc them as is. Now finding you btw, new subbie!!
Oh! I didn't know there was a trick to putting long hair into a bun by using two buns!! I'll try that out, thanks! and yeah for some reason I keep getting the urge to do something different with it, but it does seem like simple is always better. After all, I only have been able to grow my hair with braids/plaits so maybe that's not such a bad thing after all. Thanks for the tips and thank you for subscribing!
@@EtherielleHB with most 4c and longer haired 4c , you would in deed notice that the "boring" simple styles are Def the ones that grow the hair.
you are an inspiration i just saw your videos last week and i immediately put my hair in mini braids and seeing this one now im am highly motivated. much love from Namibia. would love to meet you one day
WOW... thank you Ndeshi, that really means a lot to me! Thank you so much for the love and I would love to meet you too one day as well! :)❤
The best thing to do is to keep on doing long term protective styles,it protect our hair and I ×ll grow longer.but if we go crazy with our long hair it will definitely break....I love you so much you inspire me to do protective style
Thank you so much for that, note taken🙏❤ I love you too and I'm honored that I've been able to inspire you with the vids I make :)
Hair growth is exciting seeing how long it can possibly grow after thinking it would never grow ❤
Yes it was definitely mind blowing when it all came to fruition !! It all started with a thought!! :)❤
I’m at arm pit length and chunky twists in a low bun is my everyday look😂
I’m glad I’m a lazy natural I don’t have that urge or desire to do different styles, I feel for those who do though, y’all have my sympathy😅❤
LOLL Yeah, it's like an itch that you can't scratch 😂😆
This is so awesome!! I've been natural my whole life but never gotten past bra strap length. I have tried and failed so many times to grow my hair, i hope it can be as long as yours some day
Thank you!! :) It definitely can and will be!! As long as you keep trying and don't give up, it is BOUND to happen!!! If you can get your hair to bra strap length, you can definitely get it to waist length!!❤❤❤
Congratulations !!!! Your hair has really grown.
Thank you!! ❤Now I just gotta figure out what to do with my hair now!
I'm sure you will figure something out with time.
I LOVE the passion you found in your hair.
Thank you!!
U got me at "i wouldnt trade it for the world" cuz that's exactly how i feel abt mine. I really love kinky hair and it doesnt cease to amaze me how it can poof up and also be straight. When i baby doll part and do two plaits and see how i can tie it below my chin i get so excited. It is a love journey. I aint never wanna be harsh to my glory ever again. No chemicals. My hair is my glory and i never understood that. I look at my hair and i see the intelligence of my creator. I am black and i am beautiful and God did that.
I agree altheasmalling5826. Our hair is a God-given gift. It is so unique and beautiful and I'm grateful that he has chosen us to have this type of hair that can do so many things!!
You have inspired me, you are soo consistent, that's what I lack, I'm going to do better, thanks, and congratulations!
Thank you so much! You got this!❤
Thank you for sharing your 4c journey; you give me hope, but you also present a realistic view (Twelve years is not overnight growth) of hair growth.
Thank you!! During the first 9 years, I had no idea what I was doing and the last three years was when I finally figured it out loll. Absolutely, it does not happen overnight, It would be nice if it did though loll
Take time! Everything will get where it needs to be.
Happy for you and your new ventures in Life ❤🎉 you have inspired me to keep going, almost waist length now my new goal is hip length 😂 did you say knee length?! I’m not mad at cha you can do it. 🎉
OMG WHAAT?! That is amazing!!! 😯 I'm so glad that you're almost at waist length!! Yeah🤣knee length if it's possible! Thank you so much for watching me and growing with me!! I'm so glad that you've come so far in your hair growth journey!! 😊❤❤
@@EtherielleHB Thank you 🥰
Im a year into my journey. Just shoulder length now. I can't wait to see my bra strap length, then waist length. your consistency paid off. Congrats to falling in love with your hair
That's awesome that you're a year in! You'll definitely get there, and thank you :)

The Shanillia26 channel shows a variety of protective styles for longer 4C hair
Okay, I'll check out that channel. Thanks for the help!
I love shanillia26 used her channel to grow my daughters hair❤❤❤❤❤
I'd love to see more videos as you find more hairstyles when your hair is out!
That's a great idea! Thank you! :)
Hi sis. I’m enjoying your videos, do you mean to say you left your hair in braids for 1 years without taking it down?
Hey WLHMCALLNATURAL! No, I had a mini braid regimen that I was following. I re-braided my mini braids every two months but essentially yes I did take it down completely a little after a year of wearing them.
Your takedown style looked beautiful.
Great job! Cantù sells a wonderful ponytail holder…it’s sort of a medium sized oval shaped banana clip. There is also a larger one by a different brand. Green Beauty wears this type of clip often. They work well for thick hair…low and high buns. They also hold twists and braids well. I wish you the best.
Thank you so much! I'll look into Cantu's ponytail holders and I'll check out Green Beauty and see if she mentions the name of the larger clip that you mentioned as well.
Yes we can grow long hair great job and thumbs up beautiful long hair God bless
Thank you so much 🤗
You did that!!! Congratulations you look amazing 👍
Thank you!!❤
You got a new follower 🎉❤
Thank you so much Deeyah24!! I really appreciate it!!❤❤
Have you tried BANDING your hair to stretch it without heat? It works pretty well, make sure you moisturize your hair before banding and keep tte bands overnight before taking them down.
I've tried once before a while back, but haven't quite gotten it right yet loll! I'm still going to keep trying though!!👍
Whoa!!! How did she do that? A whole year? Sis I wish I could
Congratulations on your length! I am looking to begin the journey.
Oh, you should try the heatless silk robe curler on stretched or blow dried hair. Do it on dry hair. Leave it in overnight
I just got one not too long ago and I was so excited about it that I became impulsive and tried it out without recording loll! Luckily I only did it while my hair was wet and it didn't turn out that well so I have a chance to film it with my hair being dry now! Thank you for suggesting that! There will be a video on that curler coming soon!
It's longer than wast length
You have beautiful hair Etherielle, praise God. Thank-you for taking time out to share with others what you have done to grow your hair. I was wondering, how often do you trim your hair?
I trim/dust my hair on an as-needed basis, so there isn't usually a specific time that I trim/dust my hair, it's just when I see that certain parts of my hair need to be trimmed/dusted. I also mostly dust my ends
@@EtherielleHB okay, keep up the good work. 😊🌷
So happy for you ❤🎉 can’t wait to see your blowout video 😊
You are lucky sis, as for me my hair doesn’t like for it too stay long. My hair is 4c and I do braids with my own hair. I can only go for one month if it passes that I will lose more hair.
I'm sorry to hear that Janet. I believe that where there is a will there is a way. If braids don't work, I'm sure there are other ways to be able to retain your length as well! For example, with me, twists don't work for me at all, so I resorted to braids, and it helped me out a lot, but different strokes for different folks!
@@EtherielleHB thank you my sister. Twist doesn’t work with me as well but braids is okay if only I don’t keep in for too long.
Great hair ❤❤
Would you consider RevAir? The new smaller/compact version. Hope to buy one some day. Haven’t used heat in a few years.
Great suggestion! I'll check it out
I don’t have the patience for mini braids
Hey, I completely understand loll I know it's not for everybody. Do what works for you! :)
You have a nice name, it’s unique.
Thank you!! :)❤
It’s almost tailbone
Yes!!! Hair goals😍😍😍
Thank you!!❤❤❤🎊🙏
I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you, there's definitely more to come!!
New sub here this video is amazing!!
Thank you so much for subbing!! ^^ ❤
How have you grown your edges? Did it come because of the mini braids?
Side note: I’ve been doing braids and laying edges for 10+ years & noticed that the front of my hair is not normal but short and thin. I have installed mini braids last month (YAY) but struggling to know what to do with my edges!!!!
There are parts of my hairline that have always been harder to grow, which I will show in my next video, but honestly lavender oil has been my go to for thickening any parts of my hair, and I use that religiously in my hair care products, so I don't think it grew solely because of mini braids, but mini braids did play a part of how I grew my hair out
Stop laying your edges and try to leave them out of your styles, silk headbands and grease helped my edges grow back out
What do you mean, you left your braids for a whole year. Does that mean you never rebraided it during that year? Just asking.
Thank you for your question! It will be answered next Saturday on the 10th at 6pm EST
You are so beautiful! Thanks for sharing
Thank you! You are so welcome!!♥

Hi pinky-ud1rt! I have a couple of videos from about a year or two ago that goes into what I've been using for my hair and also my routines on how I retain length, wash my hair etc. on the channel! I'm not super tech savvy, but I'll try and link it for you below. I also tell you in the waist length hair video that it took me about 12 years, mainly because for the first 9 years I had no idea what I was doing, but the last 3-4 years I finally figured it out and got it down pact. Cornrows should be fine, I believe you can grow your hair in any kind of braids for the most part, I just grow mine in mini braids. Here are the links:

You sound soo much like Chloe Bailey when you talk.
Oh wow! You think so? That's really cool that I sound like her, she has an amazing voice! With singing though, I can't hold a candle to her! Thanks, I appreciate it! ❤❤
Try to make the products you use in your hair and sell them. I tried the Shakaiki shampoo
That's great that you tried the Shikakai Shampoo!! Funny that you mentioned that, there's some products that I'm in the process of working on..👀👍
#Lovely hair💕
Thank you!!❤❤
Blow out video pls
Coming up!!👍
Hey do you trim your hair?
Yes I do. :)
Thanks for the reply
You gotta get a puff cuff
Thanks, I'll look into it!!
Yes we would love to see a blow out video. Gorgeous hair.
🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Use hairsticks
Okay I'll try them out, thank you for the help!!
So you was wearing mini braids and new growth( from not taking your braids out and rebranding them) for a year?
You not right the head.
🤣🤣 I think you misunderstood. I didn't just leave them like that silly! I would be asking for locs at that point! I had a routine and everything, I'll link it down below.
