I just realized that I have low porosity hair and never used protein treatments but I definitely will now (just once a month because I don’t use heat) ☺️💜
I'm glad to know I'm doing things right for the most part. I'm already doing 95% of this already. It's the exercising that's an issue for me because I'm disabled. Movement equals pain, so I don't do anything more than necessary to prevent extra pain. Otherwise, I'm doing well with what I'm doing taking care of my hair.
@@ShaniqueBuntyn thanks love. Unfortunately, I've had to adjust to it. But what should've killed me left me in pain instead, so I'll take it. I wasn't supposed to see 33, but I just turn 42 Saturday so I'm just thankful for life, pain and all. God's just good!
I found out I’m low porosity… keeping it in sew ins and braids for the most part has helped with growth… I just started using protein by green beauty and 😳 lord it’s wonderful and comes with instructions for each porosity!! Also I remember I used to do protein treatments years ago with colored hair and basically forgot hair still needs it. Also curlycrisis fenugreek has helped with so much growth for me the past 9 months !! I wish we could post pics on RUclips comments to show.
Amazing tips, she is right, I pretty much do all of these tips except for washing my hair. I wash my hair every two weeks but you just motivated me to start washing every week. Beaties, she hit it spot on with the deep conditioning, I deep condition and that has really help my hair. God bless!!!
Setup for success! You’re learning just like us. It happens on a journey. I’m a huge fan of yours since @ journeytowaistlength now. You speak and I will listen 👂🏾.
As a vegetarian for 7 years and anemic my hair suffered. I added protein twice a month and taking iorn. I just did a big chop because it was that bad but I am committed to the general health not just my hair.
Curlformers for me is the best method to get a sleek heatless blowout. I deep condition for longer now. 45min to 1hr. Ayurveda treatments have really made a huge difference in my hair. Alma and Bhrami powder are a good combo for a strengthening treatment. I wash my hair every 2 to 3 weeks. And refresh my scalp with rose water in between washes. Plus refresh my hair a bit not adding too much product each week. I mostly finger finger tangle then after stretching my hair I go in with a Tangle Teaser.
Thanks for all advice. I have learned so much during my journey. I have had some great growth and i have had some set backs caused by me being a little lazy with my hair and just life in general.
My hairline is really sensitive and everything makes it super sore, and my edges have suffered because of it. Do you have any recommendations? My hair is 4c, fine, and super short (recently cut it all off again).
Yes, definitely avoid tight styles, if possible stick to loose twists and braids. I have sensitive scalp too and I used Zoe Organics hair products in 2020, it really helped and I abandoned them in 2021 but went back this year 2022 and I can tell the difference. Try it, Zoe Organics. The maker has sensitive scalp too so she worked magic with the products.
@@ShaniqueBuntyn I haven't been doing tight styles, and when I do any twists, I leave that area out. The soreness mainly comes from when I wear bonnets, scarves, headwraps, wigs. I'm assuming it's the rubbing that's making it sore, but I don't know how to fix it when I wear those styles
@@MusIcChic171 I don't know if you have the bonnets that are flat like with a band but I suggest those ones cuz the scrunched ones messed with my edges (plus I have a small forehead so... it caused disaster). I'd say try to leave that part alone and keep it moisturized. If you feel anything is too tight or irritating. Don't keep it on too long, listen to your body and hair
Lots of water with your shampoo, condition and stylers. My hair doesn’t respond well to oils and butters and I can last a good 7 days. I clarify about once a month. I’m low porosity also. Informative video.
I’ve really neglected my natural hair all of last year and this video is going to help me get my routine back. I just found out I have high porosity hair too! Ugh
I love Palmer's Protein Deep Conditioner. I deep condition my hair once every 2 months it definitely make a huge difference making my hair alot softer and healthier.
I have 0 patience for terrible products, and for me? If something can't "work" within 2 minutes of me applying it to my hair, I never buy it again. I have a couple products that do manage to work within that time. The Rapid line from Elsève (Elvive) L'Oréal, Herbal Essences Hello Hydration and the Hairfood (treats) masks by Garnier Fructis. If they can do it? Why then would I waste my time in the wash with stuff in my hair for 15 to 30 minutes? No way. I want to get in, get out, be done! I am no longer a slave to my wash day routine, and I like it so much!
Yes it does. It’s not direct heat but it’s still considered using heat. If your hair is more a manageable in a stretch state. Never skip protein, don’t forget heat protectant. You can also try using a cool setting(if your blow dryer has one)
Sometimes I start the washing process in the kitchen sink. I apply deep conditioner and do some errands while it penetrates.Then I take my shower and rinse out the deep conditioner.
Thank you for these tips. I agree with all of them. You mentioned about using a satin scarf under a beanie in the winter months but there is a line called Beautifully Warm which sells beanies with the satin already sewn in the beanie. I have 3 of there beanies.
How do wrap your hair at night after you've done a braid/twist out? I feel like the back of my hair is broken the most because of how I wrap it but I wanna maintain the style 😅😅 any advice?
I feel like we shouldn’t call people lazy naturals because not everyone has time to spend 1hr in the shower on wash day. Especially moms or busy people 😢 I don’t have kids but I find it very annoying to always have to spend so much time on my hair.
How is an hour ‘so much time’? Even people with bone straight hair spend that much time washing, conditioning, and styling. It’s just hair. If it’s so burdensome, then why not cut it into a cute taper or simple bald head?
I think because one hour is like minimum. Sometimes I will take up to two hours in the shower because I’m porosity and my hair likes heat so I’ll even add my leave in while still in the shower
@@denyshadials5702 my point is people should not be called lazy because they don’t seem 4 hrs on their hair. And why should I? People from the 80s didn’t spend that much money and time on their hair yet they still had the most beautiful Afro styles or just pretty long hair. I’m not going to cut my hair is I don’t want to spend too much time on it. I can just find what works for me without having to spend all that time on hair.
@@Sisima13 4 hrs. Is different and not even necessary for healthy hair care. Your original comment referred to an hour, which isn’t long at all. So I’m still not sure how it equates as ‘lazy’ or why you’re so upset over it.
@@denyshadials5702 Sorry I meant to say "should NOT be called lazy" if they don’t want to spend hours and hours on their hair. Bottom line is I don’t think we need to spend too long on our hair if we want it to be healthy we just need the right methods. But at this point I’ve also realized everyone is different and have different needs 🤷🏾♀️
I started deep conditioning first, ( thanks to Laila from FusionofCultures) so when I get in the shower to rinse it out, I can go straight to shampooing and detangling then out the shower for good. My hair resembles yours and I understand not wanting to be going in and out the shower.
It's been to me years that ma hair not growth but now it is growing slowly from the front and from back is very short what I have to do to make it grow from all side equal
Hmmmm... Personally I noticed the length of hair for back and front is hardly equal, it's a natural phenomenon. For me, mine is longer in front than at the back and for my sister gets is the reverse, for most of my friends too... But both sides grow and significantly too. If your hair is growing steadily and healthily I don't think it is something you should worry about. Just study your hair and know what styles it looks best in and what styles your hair length will be advantageous to... You'll grow to love the dynamics in a bit.... For me, I love that the longer length in front makes my head of hair look equal when I let my hair down as it ends up in the same spot as the back hairs.
I just realized that I have low porosity hair and never used protein treatments but I definitely will now (just once a month because I don’t use heat) ☺️💜
your hair will thank you!
same i only use heat every 3 months
I just realize this also smh
Yes I use balanced deep conditioners mainly I have 1 moisturizing DC and i only use it during the winter or and when I take out a protective style
Same here but I am a bit sceptical about using protein treatment because I don't use heat on my hair
I'm glad to know I'm doing things right for the most part. I'm already doing 95% of this already. It's the exercising that's an issue for me because I'm disabled.

Basically keep it hydrated and the least amount of heat as possible and protective styles
i wish it was that simple
Hydration is the most important thing for hair. The scalp need moisture for growth just like a plant need water for growth.
Agree so much. Protein and ayeruvedic has been a game changer. Minimal shedding.
Thank you for sharing
What's ayeruvedic?
As a vegetarian for 7 years and anemic my hair suffered. I added protein twice a month and taking iorn. I just did a big chop because it was that bad but I am committed to the general health not just my hair.

I use a heating cap with my deep conditioner 👌🏾
Perfect!

Thank You ! Be Well
Thank you too!
This was SO helpful!!!
Happy you think do
I wash my hair once or twice a week. I don’t deep condition unless I need to. I have my hair professionally trimmed every 3-4mos.
Does stretching with a blow dryer like 3 times a week count as using heat ?
Yes it does. It’s not direct heat but it’s still considered using heat. If your hair is more a manageable in a stretch state. Never skip protein, don’t forget heat protectant. You can also try using a cool setting(if your blow dryer has one)
@@ShaniqueBuntyn okay thank you , Definitely gonna start using a heat protector!
Blow drying without a diffuser is direct heat.
Will you add the protein products for low porosity hair? Thanks!
I love ❤️ your hair 🥰
Thank you for watching!
My hair does not retain moisture so deep conditioning helps my hair have less shrinkage and accept products.. I deep condition weekly.
I'm guilty of not drinking water too. I need to try to change that
drink drink drink
Sometimes I start the washing process in the kitchen sink. I apply deep conditioner and do some errands while it penetrates.Then I take my shower and rinse out the deep conditioner.

How do wrap your hair at night after you've done a braid/twist out? I feel like the back of my hair is broken the most because of how I wrap it but I wanna maintain the style 😅😅 any advice?
I just a jumbo bonnet. Or do a high ponytail with a silk scrunchie and use a satin scarf. Link in the description box for silk, bonnet and scrunchies
Your hair is so gorgeous
thank you!
Have you ever experienced noticeably long and thick strands of hair coming out during detangling?
not sure what you mean by thick strands. But i do lose shedded hairs when detangling. That is very normal
