The way I jumped when you said my name like I didn’t submit a question. I’m forever doomed to be an awkward black girl, lol. Thank you for answering. It’s cool how into science you are. If you ever did do a hair line, it will definitely come in handy.
Girl being a smart black from the Upstate in SC is so intimidating because that oreo label is soooooo loud. It followed me for years, I'm sure it still does in some ways. I'm glad people are finally coming outta that mindset.
Such a sad mindset because it makes black people scared to achieve in a way that is not "socially acceptable" for a black person to achieve; the fact that the stigma is perpetuated by our own people just makes it that much worse! I've definitely heard my fair share of "you talk so white!!".😮💨
@@galatea5455 for sure! it’s such an interesting concept when you think about it. it goes so far back in our history. the origins of it are very sad when you really consider our history here in America.
I was called an Oreo for years ( hey fellow SC girlie) and it was annoying AF. My intelligence and my love of learning doesn't conflict with my blackness. Like, black folks can't even just do well without getting criticism 😵💫 it's less of a hurt now and more of an annoyance when certain micro ( and rarely macro) aggressions happen in my job now, but it's just like "really? Someone has to explain why this is low-key racist to you at your big age?" Idk, just a rant to echo your annoyance.
@@geekfreak2000 I deffffffffff felt all this!!! whew!
i felt every single answer, ESPECIALLY the one about speaking up to the ones close to you. i have and have always had such a hard time letting close friendships/relationships know how they make me feel because i don’t want it to be an argument or any sort of difference in the relation. it gets to the point where i endure so much of it that when i’m finally fed up i just disappear 😭 and it’s NOT RIGHT! but it’s an easy escape and the thought of communicating that person’s actions and how they affect me gives me extreme anxiety. some friendships and relationships were meant to fade, but there are definitely a few that i’ve ruined because i can’t speak tf up
Lowkey some people you know in your heart that if you bring it up they either won’t change or the energy shift will feel off and they’ll subtly make you feel guilty so you just leave. Bids for connection are usually either ignored or noted and you’re made to believe you’re dramatic. I’d rather walk away.
@@Grace-jb7me yes! and instead of dealing with that i just go ghost. some people call it bad communication and atp im fine with it 🤷🏾♀️
The idea of not being in a money grab just because you have an audience just made me love you more 🥰
Serious girlie to the front 🙋🏾♀️ rightchea 😂
You're so likeable. Love listening to you. 😊
Pumpkintown TRULY is a fever dream 😂
Y’all… Will would be such a fun hair stylist. He gotta go to cosmetology school… get that assistant and go!
Yessss
Pumpkin Town was must see TV. 😂😂😂
My husband still calls you Big Body Bertram whenever he sees you on the screen. 😊😊
Can we see a line for men please😩 we aint got allot out there. Something to manage shedding, scalp calming, and hair follicle stimulation.
Your observation about the rental economy is right! I was reading an article yesterday talking about how something like 64% of available homes in GA are owned by rental property management companies. So then those homes get converted into rental units. :(
Chile you are (one of) my best friend in my head. There were so many points that you touched on in this video that I could comment on - but my comment would be a whole dissertation 📜
So, to be short...
-You ever need an assistant, it's me! 🙋🏽♀️ (Seriously I have a background in business admin and accounting)
-Need somebody to flat iron your hair,
Me! 🙋🏽♀️
-I too keep feeling the urge to move out the country for very similar reasons.
-I had a similar experience in college which made me go into a shell.
I could go on but Will this video is everthing!!
HEY WILL!
….hi?
Now which one of you is the real Will? 🧐
🤣😂 I love it here lol
You’re so silly 🤭
We are in the Pumpkin Town alternate reality 😂
Ever since I transitioned to sisterlocs, I stopped watching my natural peeps. I missed your face and your sass. Your hair is FLOURISHING!!! Take care.
Your arm definition looks amazing!! Lol I had to say it. Great video as always x
Will! I love how you incorporate the memes, the photos, the audio HILARIOUS!!!!
Will! That Nobu vlog is my favorite - I've watched it too many times, lol. Also, that 'Oreo' thing still hits hard for me as an adult. Ty for speaking to it.
Loved this so much! To the question about finding your passion..... this may be a bad take, but as a 40 year old woman I'd say finding a career you're passionate about is a trap. Many people who go unto a field they're passionate about eventually get tired of it. Career-wise, find something you like or are neutral about (and you're good at) that will give you the financial stability to pursue your passions in your downtime. 😊
I agree with getting an assistant! Consider teaming up with the local colleges to get interns. Students work free for experience to be able to put in on their resume. Approach a college that has a communications major. The school need not be local. HBCUs are a perfect start!! I’m a Spelman College graduate and SC has a very strong arts department. I recommend SC!
Not Sydney Harris being one of my childhood best friends 👀 hey girl!
Loved hearing about your likes and points of view. ❤ Thank you for bringing up fear holding us back if we allow it. I struggle with this so much 😭 especially with social and performance anxiety.
Certainly agree with you, I am the loner. I travel, go biking and enjoy working out outdoors and enjoying nature (city parks) alone.
I’d love to see you on an episode of House Hunters International! Yes Sis, find that place abroad!!
not me in my car hearing my whole government name out Wills mouth through my speakers 😅
You deserve it. I wanna be on this level. Missing so much waiting on everybody to want what you want. Believe it or not I was just thinking about what I want. Feeling guilty, feeling scared, 2:45
Omg! Thanks for answering my question Will! You def have to come to DC, it’s pretty cool here. But I feel you on wanting to leave the U.S. There’s way too much going on.
As I live in Bermuda (born & raised)...Come through boo and bring your friends. We'll be happy to have you!!
OMFG YOU ANSWERED 2 of my questions 😮😮😮 Get you a boo with money, Will! I wish it didn’t matter too, but it’s unfortunately significant at least for serious long term relationships where you want to align goals (which is what you said)
Move to Rotterdam! DO IT!!! You'll love it.. Bring your bike, find all our hidden urban gems and enjoy life!!
okay girl i screamed when u answered my q and said BEYONCE lmaoo yes her team and resources are everything! the way u talked about her team is how i feel about bjork - like her mind really be on some next level shit
Every apartment really do look the same in the US😂 I feel the same about B, I always watch her music videos when I am in a rut. The self titled album changed my life too😊
This was fun to watch Will. Whenever I watch RUclips, I always come to your channel first🤗 before anything. Love how humble you are. Always, lots of love from Cape Town, South Africa ❤️🤗
This is one of the most helpful Q&A videos I’ve ever seen. Thank you for these nuggets of wisdom. Truly. You are wise beyond your years and while you experienced childhood trauma and other setbacks it has given you such humility and gratitude and so much wisdom. It’s admirable and I’m so glad I get to watch these videos.
Will your skin and arms are looking great
This is therapy for me! Glad your not just on Patreon❤
Will, maybe you can collab with @DeeperThanHairTV on that silk press. She takes such good care of naturals.
Will...what's the arm and shoulder workout? Cuz you giving Angela Bassett tease and I'm trying to be sleeveless for the summer and for Beyonce.
Will, your answer to that first question was speaking to mmeeeeeeeeeee! Your mentions of life being what you make it, your brain making a bigger deal out things than it truly is and fear holding you back from enjoying life are ALL feelings I'm experiencing and trying to overcome. I can absolutely agree that you're right about them all, especially letting fear control you from LIVING life.
I was really hoping you would read my question and when you did I was so excited, thank you. Your answer to my question was so thoughtful. I'm definitely going to apply it and I looooved when you said "wait out the valley and you'll get back to the peak." 🤎🤎🤎
yasss Pumpkin Town was soooo freakin funny, i legit rewatch them sumtimes just as a pick me up, u should really do more scripted content because sis u dont miss!! purr. ur so unbelievably creative and talented and hella funny. really ill watch anything u do.. i never miss any of ur content on any of ur social media. i will make time for it until i take my last breath. periodT. but seriously, thank you for what you do because u bring me so much joy and peace with what u do and we all kno im not the only one.. so thank you for being you. please never stop! ur by far (literally by the lingest shit) my favorite youtuber/creator/influencer/whatever u identify as. youre my fav!!! Love you.
Thank you for answering my question and your advice ❤️❤️ love you !
Ahhh!!! You answered my question! Omggg!!! 🤭 Hehe I asked because your apartment is so bright and colorful, textured, UNIQUE! 🗣️ That’s what you areee 🎶 And I feel like you’re the opposite of those girlies. Also no hate to them. I’m subscribed to a lot of them, actually 😅 But it does bore me when yet another one buys the same furniture, decor and other items 5 other ones did. You inspire me to be unique :) My apt (even tho it is the cookie cutter standard cuz it’s all I could afford) is colorful and unique inside, too ❤
Also I wanna come on the trip! ✈️
Can’t wait to see your line.
I still have Pumpkin Town flashbacks 🤣🤣🤣
OMG, I actually went to college with Delores. I was not expecting her to pop up on your list ☺️☺️!
That Pumpkin Town live stream series was so crazy, I watched the whole thing 😂😂
I enjoy your content so much Will! I was one of them girlies on the subscribe cusp for a while. Your content would pop up and I would watch but I would think “do I really need to follow another hair channel?” It wasn’t until one of your live streams sometime last year that I was like, this man is so much more than just hair and I finally clicked subscribe. You’re so funny and have such interesting… interests. I know the all mighty algorithm hates when people step outside their lane, but I think transitioning into a lifestyle chancel would be great for you because we’d all keep watching.
To the person Empress S, find an apprenticeship! They have a lot in tech and other fields for people in your situation and you get paid to learn while also building skills. By the end you have work experience and if you don’t like it you can still switch to new careers.
Pumpkin town feels like a fever dream for me tooo😂 it was so funny and amazing
Baybeeeeeee I’ve been watching you for years waiting and praying for you to try your hand at a hair care line!!!! I’d buy it in a heartbeat!!!!
The pecks and biceps….body ody ody ody ody 💃🏾💪🏾
I wanted to invite you to the Phoenix Open sooooo bad last week but I didn’t want to seem creepy by asking if you wanted to go. 🙈 I had access to everything but I know that’s weird from a stranger especially because I do content creation on instagram. Everyone wants to be yo fren! 🥴
I love the list of act favs love it .. never heard of these people but I will look at their work I like what you showed us
These questions were great !
We ❤️you Will.
omg if you made a hair care line you would have all my coin, I know the products would work and be good quality
I really appreciate your story..
I asked about SwirlyCurly’s products because I haven’t seen many or any unsponsored reviews and I wanted to determine if someone would truthfully discuss the products.
I didn't hear the rest of the video after the bark🤣too busy laughing. I had to rewind.
ouuu i can’t wait to watch this!
8:05 im battling mental heath but i feel like this when i come up for air😩🙌🏾🙏🏾
My high school friend Mystic Gooden who does the photography and styling for Magnus 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👑💕💕💕

I LOVEEE coconut scented products but my body and hair reject all things coconut oil. We are not friends.
Periodttttt.
Every single time my hair starts dreading and matting up, I look at the hair product ingredients and 9 out of 10 times coconut oil is there. I hate it so much. 😭
WILL, I see the arms ‼️
Will we’ll it’s about damn time( in my Lizzo voice lol) please do🥰
Do you ever ponder on what your college experience would have been like at an HBCU like Howard University?
I’ll be at the ATL Renaissance concert! Pls let’s hang out :)
Meme EMPEROR ❤
HEAVY on the Jalen Hurts 😭
Great video Will! 😊That is so disappointing that your friends didn’t celebrate your 96% on the Chemistry exam. 🤯
If u want your hair flat ironed, I would trust a stylist and RUclipsr named DeeperThanHairTv. She's really knowledgeable and protective of black people's curls
Yay! 😊
I saw the title and instantly moved 🤣
THE BARK FACE LMAOOOOO
Have you ever thought about modeling? Like serious question
Aye I’m the thousandth like!!❤
Hey fellow neuroscientist ❤❤❤
lol I’m hereeeeee
I guess I’ll be your first hair care line customer 😂
OK because about that spa...Im an interior designer on the way to be professionally certified just LMK
wow,stay healthy and progressive
Escúchame: I would sign up for the Patreon. The free content is top tier
How much of that is the product and how much is genetics. Bc i have very dry 4c hair and I don't want to believe that this will work for me
I’m not sure honestly but I think that genetics may make some ppl have slower growing hair and it may require them more effort to reach a certain length however I think it is possible for everyone to grow their hair long, you just need to find products for your hair porosity and minimize breakage/manipulation/damage.
Dang I ain’t mean it like that 😭😭 lol it’s just scary out here
💕✊🏾🇿🇦
Will I’m ready to travel just tell me a name, date, and price!
I'm a professional would love to flat iron your hair ,I work in Dallas Tx kerastase product specialist
So many people sale products on utube and that stuff don’t work.. it hasn’t been tested or anything . Keep your money people.
I feel the same thing about moving around in the US. I don’t like any of it anymore. It’s over. America is not that girl
Club Renaissance in London? so you're the reason they sold out like that? 👁👁 (but if you want a tour guide while you're here, that can be arranged)
Where is your sister I wanna meet your sister!!!! I love u ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕
