Pantene. Is slept on. Girlie's with low porosity hair can definitely use there hair masks. I love it for my hair and the smell. Chefs kiss
Now this is definitely facts!!!
Thank u soooo much for mentioning this, I've been looking for things I can used on my low porosity hair😢❤🙏
Thank you🌷
Gurl now why am I low porosity and just bought the mask 😂 I love their moisture renewal shampoo and conidsrioner
I focused on health for 6 years and my hair grew 11 inches. Then I focused on length through scalp massages and scalp stimulation from various ingredients and my hair grew 4 inches in 9 months.
What scalp stimulating ingredients did you use?
hi there! what ingredients did you use?
Details please on hair care routine
Which scalp stimulation ingredients did you use? I want to be on the right track.
I would also like to know!!
It really is crazy bc my scalp used to ALWAYS burn from perms. Scabs all over 😩🥴🥴 I transitioned once I went to college as well and never looked back. My mom always said she’d never go natural. In 2020 she chopped her BSL permed hair off to a a almost a fade and been natural since. She actually mentioned to me this yr how she’s grateful that she listen to me about natural hair and says she now understand why I be taking hrs to do my hair 😂😂 but she almost made me cry when she said that listening to me and going natural has seriously improved her HEALTH 🥹🥹🥹 no one understands how perms play apart in health problems as well.
Oh I remember those burns. Since being natural my hair has really grown. With a relaxer, my hair barely reached shoulder length. I talked about my hair growth in several RUclips videos.
@@Alisha10000000what is your channel's name?
@@lyngee2357 Alicia Mendsey Natural hair Journey and Goals
Mentioning health problems, I've worked in medical school in the Neurology dept for about 3 years now. There's a very mean and vicious version of MS called NMO, where lesions appear in the brain and spine. Unfortunately, black women make up the highest demographic for having this disease. I remember asking a doctor why this was, and he just gave some condescending answer about x and y Chromosomes. But I have a theory that becuase black women put chemicals on their head, that's got to be doing something terrible to the brain. It's either that, or we're low on vitamin D, we're under stress a lot (especially becuase we're the backbone of the family), and we have inflammation. Also the point was made about how is it that we put on gloves when handling perms but don't care that that stuff is touching is scalp? Doesn't add up. I have never put another perm in my hair since mid 2015. Not worth it.
@@veggieeater Great observation! I watched a crime docu series and they mentioned how they can usually tell if a deceased body is a BW by looking at their skulls. There's a green residue/ plaque from continuous perming
I am glad you mentioned genetics for your fast hair growth. With your great results so many would already start by selling their magic hair oils and unfortunately many would fall for it.
As you said your health is the reason you could reach your hair growth genetic potential and the time you took to learn techniques, products, styling is the reason you could retain all the growth your gentics gave you.
Reaching our full hair genetic potential will look different for everyone whether it is full waist length, arm pit length or bra strap length in 5 years. But in all cases it will be healthy longer natural hair that we've learned to manage and properly care for and that's what matter the most.
Your hair journey and videos are very inspirational. Thanks for sharing.
I knew Melanin Hair care helped. I noticed after you cut your hair you took a video break then when you came bsck you were rapunzel. I was like i need to try that black soap shampoo lol 😂❤
LOL 🤣🤣
@@roothie__Hello new subscriber here! Your hair is beautiful. I think im high porosity because my hair get dry really fast. Ive been at bra strap length for 2 years now and wants to get past this plateau. My edges also are thinning out really bad especially the right side can you please give me tips on how to grow my edges back and to get past this hair plateau??? Please respond!
Ugh I NEED to try that shampoo but its been sold out for a hot minute 😭😭😭
I use to condition my hair before I put a relaxer in. And I never burn my own scalp I use to go to the salon and they use to burn my scalp and I got tired of it so I began relaxing my own hair. I started perming my hair and now I stopped over 2 years
Girl i am so thankful for you and this video!! I started following you years ago when i was deep into my haircare journey. I locked my hair 1.5 years ago and havent washed it myself since. Now im getting back into doing it myself and with the way these companies change their formulas, i wanted to see what works. To see that your favorite brands are still working for you years later has helped me tremendously.
Hi. Your hair is beautiful. Genetics just simply mean more sebum production in the scalp. The more Sebum travel downs the hair shaft, the longer your hair grows, because it strengthens and naturally moisturizer your hair. No product is Really needed. Just Scalp Massages with some oils, Non-comedogenic oils. Mielle and all the products you mention are great. I am High Porosity.. I just mainly use Vegan Shampoo and Deep conditioner Leave in, oil and a butter and twist or keep my hair braided. Great Video. God Bless.❤❤
Very interesting video.
I started following you way back in either 2015 or 16 when you first posted your first video. You have been interesting and bringing real content ever since then.
Keep being real.
I love that you were honest in all that you said, new subscriber. Thanks
I live for your videos❤...You inspire me to want to grow out my 4c hair too..❤all the way from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
Thank you so much for your time and also the information.
Thank you so much for sharing, I’m going to buy some of these products ❤❤
Your natural hair is gorgeous. Thanks for the tips. Tfs.
Happy Birthday!!!
Hey Ruth, thank you for this video. I’ve seen you use briogeo and olaplex, would you recommend those products for consistent use or just when super hair regeneration is needed?
Thank you very much this is soo helpful ❤ God Bless you girrrl ✨🙏🏾🥰
First! Cant wait for this video! Got my pen and notebook ready!
Yes baby 🔥
yasss!
I normally will go 2 weeks between washes now that my hair is longer but I definitely do a cleanser every wash over a week. My curls are so much better when they are super clean.
You Look Great Roothie!
Great video!! How often do you press & trim your hair?
Thanks for the mention of these products 🙏🏼😇👍👌🌹💯
Yes ma'am, Miche and Melanin is the truth. I love Miche Indulge and Lavish. Melanin Shampoo. Yes chefs kiss. Also Now I Am Nappy has a great butter for twist outs.
@Roothie
What do you apply on your scalp after your washdays and do you generally use hair oils or butters after every single wash day? If so, which ones do you use and how do you apply them to your hair and scalp and also how often?
Kind regards.
I love yo vibe hunny ❤😅
awww thank you
Thank you for this educative video. What products do you recommend for high porosity hair from shampoos to leave ins? Merci d'avance.
I believe Whitney/Naptural85 talked about how she is high porosity and the Melanin conditioner works just fine for her.
Naptural85 is the creator of melanin hair care also!!
Gorgeous!
Hello just discovered your channel. Did you straightened your hair while growing it out after your second big chop? Hair is beautiful btw.❤
you’re pretty 🤍
I wish these type videos would have the correct titles. The title should be: How I RETAINED LENGTH to get my hair to waist length.
Ok her hair still grew right?
@@kraziikiim She did not *grow* hair ... so the title is a LIE.
@@bumblebee4024 in order to retain length your hair has to grow out your scalp so…
@@bumblebee4024Bruh you seem so mad for no reason 😂😂😂 , retaining you hair length just mean keeping it at the sale length without loosing hair . And growing is just making it longer .
@@kraziikiim And the *growing part* is independent of anything you do. You seem to be unable to comprehend the concept of growth vs. length retention.
How do i clarify my hair and how to do the hair porosity test?
Where to purchase wig
May you do a video on how to have voluminous hair? :)
Hello, where did you purchase your wig? It’s soooo beautiful
I remember the scabs from relaxers 😣 I don’t have no plans to go back to relax hair no time soon.
Yes they were terrible
Not you inspiring me to go head and do a nice cut 👀😅 …that ain’t why I came to the video lord but I hear you 😂😂
Where do u buy ur products from the uk please?
Hi luv, how long do you keep your wig braids in before taking them out and changing the hairstyle?
For this style, one week. But I typically go anywhere from 2-4 weeks to
When i was relaxing my hair, it looked good for a second then it will massively start falling off when the burns where healing. In 2020 I chopped of my hair and was just wearing wigs. Last year i began to be intentional with my 4c now my hair is thriving.
MELANIN HC! Yesss girl! That’s my staple. You’re gorgeous. Are you JW?
I have seen you use k18 and you inspired me to buy it yet I don't hear you say anything about it.
Thanks for the update but everyone is different and diff hair products will work diff tho love you
It’s the hmmn you made in a Ghanaian accent(unintentionally)for me😂
Ik you’re about to say melanin hair care chileeeee
Girl if the mielle never worked, what you think I need?
Beautiful
How often do you wash your hair ? Deep condition ? Remoisturize ?
I wash my hair weekly when it's not in a protective style. When I'm being diligent I deep condition every time I wash (so weekly). I re-moisturize as needed, this would be typically every 2-3 days.
@@roothie__Thank you for this info! I’ve been trying to tweak my routine and recently decided to try weekly hair washing. I found so many girlies here on RUclips that wash weekly and their hair is thriving just like yours! This is my final sign to go ahead and make the switch lol
Hi, I have two questions.
1-How long does your typical wash day lasts start to finish ? Wash/ deep condition/style.
I am excluding the times you do long protective styles like mini twists or knotless braids obviously since I know they take way more time.
2- What are you go to weekly styles with your own hair ( no extension, long protective styles or wigs) ?
When I don't do long term protective styles( mini twists or braids with extensions). I struggle to do anything and I am so tired of buns or puffs...... Thanks
Do you do protein treatments/ bond builders? If so, which ones?
I reach for Hask Hair Keratin Protein Smoothing Deep Conditioner when I feel my hair needs it. This is usually when I've used heat or when I notice some breakage.
@@roothie__That's a good one, it's effective and affordable.
I always work on my birthday. Like, always. So ya what’s good
Honestly, I’ve never had that experience when getting relaxers. I think the people that were relaxing your hair didn’t know what they were doing.
Same, relaxers work well for me!
To each it’s own every relaxer I had burnt
Your wig looks so natural! May I ask the name of it if you don’t mind sharing?
Don't be jealous.
@@LadyIdaMorgan 18:14 🤔
@ayo_hitman_bang_introduces You're right, I missed her saying that. Plus, the wig does look super good. My mistake @GigglesnGaggie
@@LadyIdaMorganShe’s not being jealous. She’s just asking a question. Roothie is wearing a wig and responded to a different post that she keeps her braids in under her wigs at least 2 weeks. We’re all here to learn. 🤷🏽♀️
@penneyfonville5166 I hear you, I just jumped to a conclusion too quickly. It's all good now.
Do you have a wig on right now?
MELANIN HAIR CARE!!!!
You know it!!
I have about 1000 hairs that's waist length cuz I have a V cut
I kept on shouting melanin haircare the minute you said Roothie approved products 😅
🤭🤭🤭❤️❤️❤️ I'm Nigerian too❤️
WOW HAVE ANYONE EVER TOLD YOU THAT YOU LOOK LIKE NAOMI CAMBELL!
What do you use to deep condition?
Currently the Miche deep conditioners mentioned towards the end. But other great brands I love are TGIN (Honey Miracle & Miracle Repair) and Shea Moisture (Jamaica Black Castor Oil & Manuka Honey).
But natural hair grows faster and better then relaxed hair cuz of the thick texture
Hair grows how it grows - has nothing to do with it being relaxed or not. *Length retention* is based on how the hair is cared for or the chemicals put on it.
@@bumblebee4024 relaxed hair makes strands weaker
once again. she does mention that when relaxers are done IMPROPERLY they are horrible.
So true!
I thought you were south African your accent
Did you say you were born in Niger? I couldn’t quite make out what you said. Girl all this time I thought you were Jamaican or from some other Caribbean country. I kept thinking I heard a Caribbean accent peaking through. Are you fluent in any other language? I know, off topic. Just curious.
Nigerian❤
You look like Megan Good.😮
Jesus is coming back. Are you born again? If not, secure your eternity today. You do not have to go to hell. Jesus paid the price for all your sins. If you want to be born again Say the following prayer but you also have to believe it:
Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins that you was buried and rose from the dead the third day. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior
You look like Meghan Fox
Great wig thought was your hair
😴
Since your also low porosity, do you use coconut in your leave-ins or not ? because i use coconut oil and it dry my hair out
Im low porosity and i avoid anything with coconut oil my hair hates it
@@viciousreasoning504 thanks. Same for me !
⚠️ Someone tell me if there are pictures, so we're not starting at her talk the whole time.
You got the attention span of a walnut
why would u wear a wig in a video about growing natural hair? this just threw me way off...
But you have a wig on 🙄 I see lace.
New viewer. Thanks for divulging you[re wearing a wig. I wish you wouldn't have waited until 18 minutes into the video, for us new subscribers.
For the new viewers....You should look at her last video where she flat ironed her hair. Her looks as long and way better than this wig !
Idk how you click on a Roothie video not knowing she naturally has inches whether she wears a wig or not 😂😂😂
Yeah. I don't even know why she would wear a wig to talk about growing long hair. It doesn't look good.
But the tips she gave are pretty important. Thanks to her I've decided to get myself a clarifying shampoo.
Thank you for letting me know cause I was sitting here admiring that hair thinking it was hers! I've never seen her channel either.
@@drinaboobooWatch her silk press videos. Her real hair is just as long and thick as the wig
Products…Tips….Techniques…combine them all and it still won’t matter ladies-n-gents, her hair is NATURALLY LONG & FAST growing!!!
I fully agree. There’s always a genetic component to it that’s not always accounted for.
Totally agree 💯.. genetics will play a role in fast hair growth and length retention. 😊
@@melw8319
Could be health related. Not always genetics.
Things don't work like that. Look up for videos talking about genetics and hair growth and you'll understand how it doesn't take a huge role in hair growth. Genetics determine how fast your hair will grow, the porosity, density... but it will never determine how long your hair will be able to grow. If your hair "doesn't grow" it means that your hair is breaking as fast as it grow.
@@ibyou5062 I agree. It is about keeping the retention and not breaking it off. Find out what's causing the breakage and figure out what you need to do to stop it.
just slap a wig and leave it alone.
You have to still moisturize your hair, tend to ends and your scalp ..
I get my transitional from relax to natural in 2021 my hair is almost 20 inch today… I can say a good pre-wash & washing routine had make the biggest impact and every 3-4 months trimming the single knots 🪢
What's your pre wash?
@@drinabooboo Last 2-3 years I tested a lot of products not bc they didn’t work for me but I was just curious to know what is still out there and can make my hair silkier smoother more manageable,those are…
@@drinabooboo I started with Kérastase resistance pre-wash (bc I had a lot of new growth&relaxed together) then olapex 3 (it did nothing for me) then Christopher ROBIN
HYDRATING CREAM SCRUB WITH ALOE VERA (you use before wetting your hair 10 min) then Sisley hair balm (my hair drive with this,it is $120 hair balm but I was using it for 8 months) then AGENT NATEUR
HOLI (LOCKS) STRENGTHENING HAIR GROWTH HAIR SERUM (here i knew my hair loved high end products 😭) then Philip Kingsley ELASTICIZER EXTREME (from here now I’m just maintaining my health of my hair it doesn’t really matter of what I am using. Of course I am using high end product more I never use drugstore but my hair drives and loves that and I am just maintaining it) hope it helps, it’s process and investment♥️
It’s the hmmn you made in a Ghanaian accent(unintentionally)for me😂
There is nothing Ghanaian about her. Stop trying to force what isn’t there
