The fact that she was unaware that she was ripping her edges out...is why as BEAUTIFUL black women we need to educate each other not talk about each other...
So many of us are abusing our edges with glue😳 I bobby pin my wigs on because I only keep them on for the time I'm out. I really don't understand sleeping in wigs...too hot! My scalp needs to breathe!🤗
As a stylist, I’ve told my clients to only use silk or satin material on their hair. ESPECIALLY during winter when you have to wear wool coats, hats and scarfs. Coat collars, hoodies and scarfs rub and break off hair at the nape. Hats can break it off at the edges and crown. Put a silk or satin scarf as a barrier. And don’t get me started on the PERMANENT damages of GLUE. Kills the root. No root, no hair. EVER!
When I was in the Air Force, I had an issue where I'd get little bumps and scabs on the back of my head, right at the nape of my neck. I went to the doctor because I didn't know what it was. The first doctor I saw told me I was probably having an allergic reaction to the products I was using. I changed everything I used on my hair, but 3 months later I still had bumps and they were getting worse. The next doctor I saw was a black lady and when I told her what the first doctor said about it being an allergic reaction, she just laughed. In the military you have to wear your hair up to keep it off your collar and I was pulling my hair too tight. Which was putting tension on those baby hairs back there and causing the bumps and scabs. She gave me some amazing tips for doing my hair up the right way without causing damage. 2 weeks later the bumps were gone! I still use the tips and tricks she taught me 20 years later!
I'm not black, but the knowledge of how to take care of our hair, especially for Black women, should be readily available. It would save YEARS of damage and frustration.
I remember my hair stylist telling one of her her teenage white clients to stop pulling her ponytails so tight. Of course, the girl protested that it wasn’t “smooth” when she didn’t. Then the stylist showed her where her hairline was thinning/receding and told her she was the one causing it because it was tension alopecia. Her dad chimed in with an “I told you so”. I think it was when that girl heard the word alopecia that she got the message.
I had a homegirl who would always swear to me that her hair "JUST DOESN'T GROW PAST HER CHIN." She said that's just how her hair is and would get mad at me if I gave her suggestions. So I decided to shut my mouth and watch her rip her own hair out of her head with a hair brush by brushing it from root straight to the ends in a single stoke and tear CHUNKS of her hair out in the process. Just the sound of the ripping and shredding made my teeth hurt. My scalp hurt for her. 😢
the second she said that she glued her wigs to her edges instead of her skin,,, girl!!! I’m so glad this man is here to help her cause somebody should’ve taught her sooner 😭
I went to hair school and anytime a black woman came in the instructors assumed we had to be aggressive with whatever we did! 😳I had to start going against what they would say because it’s very obvious to me that this type of hair needs extreme GENTLE handling!! No pulling or harsh chemicals this hair when treated properly is gorgeous and enviable!
I just don’t understand why some black women just refuse to understand that always pulling your hair back in ponytails, wearing wigs all the time, putting heavy weave hair in for braids or whatever is not only damaging their hair but their actual hair follicles!! In healthcare I am now seeing younger teens and even children balding. This needs to be addressed in our communities!! And the way she is acting….. like the ignorance is astounding.🤯
This show needs to come back seriously. I watched the full season in one day. The way he educated on hair the way he restore all of these women confidence was beautiful. I think having him back on tv will be refreshing seeing positivity 😄
FINALLY! ONE HAIRDRESSER WITH COMMON SENSE AND KNOWLEDGE!
The fact that she was unaware that she was ripping her edges out...is why as BEAUTIFUL black women we need to educate each other not talk about each other...
It’s always the bald men that know the most about hair, I sweeeeear 😅
My wigs slip and slide but my edges are alive.
As a bald man, we're definitely some of the best people to consult on WHY you're losing your hair, since we've done been through it. 🤣👏👌
She has gorgeous hair but she is doing a LOT to those edges!
He didn’t even sound mad. He sounded like he was sad that this beautiful girl was hurting her hair and was exasperated.

as a chinese person this was educational, I didn't realize there were so many things that went into maintaining this type of hair

His reactions were everything 😂
