I’m here for all of it!! I want to get back to folks asking, “Is all that your hair?”😂😂 Yes, it is. Yesterday I clarified, cleansed, deep conditioned, and moisturized. I’m determined to get my results. Side note - I’m probably gonna join you on that bun or pin-up this summer. I don’t feel like fighting frizz after all the work I put into my roller sets.
Air drying will break your hair off. I learned the hard way, since I’ve been blowdrying, my hair has transformed and my ends have stayed thick and blunt.
I air dry because blow drying too often makes my hair thinner overtime and I don't trim often so I use a Thickening biotin conditioner and my ends are thick and healthy.
“Just be normal”😂. I totally agree. I’m also going back to the basics with my hair and I have seen the progress. And I don’t feel the burden of dealing with my hair as much.
Hey Dena! Great video! I agree. No braids. I haven’t worn braids since I was a child when my mom would cornrow my hair and put beads on the ends. When I go on vacation to a warm climate place, still no braids. I get anxiety when I see people with braids because I can only imagine the clumps of hair that will come out with the take down. And for me, I don’t know if there’s a name for it, but I NEED to be able to comb my hair everyday. That’s how I keep it tangle free after stretching for 9 months. I like your “just be normal” thought process. Makes sense. TFS ❤❤❤❤
I came here from a RUclips search and one of your shorts. Immediately subscribed! Your energy and honesty is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey and progress to those of us that are new to this❤❤❤
Your hair looks great. My problem is buying all the products and not being sure when my hair needs it. Should I use the K18 this week? Olaplex? Redken acidic bonding?😅 I feel like my hair was doing better 3 years ago when I just washed, deep conditioned, moisturized and sealed and limited flat ironing. Also this Scandinavian cold leaves my hair dry like the arctic circle. My hair doesn’t look too too bad, but it could be better. Mi nuh know man. Mi just tired😞😁
If you air dry your hair, using a moisturizer will help your hair as whenever you air dry your hair it can take more products without weighing it down. For people who roller set or flat iron their hair using something light such as serums or light oils works best. As regards to trends I believe you should stick with what works for you. Trends fades and you don’t want to mess with your hair for the sole purpose of trends. Your hair is looking fabulous so I really hope you will see improvements as you try this new routine. Remember too that what you are doing will also work for some of your viewers so sticking to a routine will help them too. It’s nice for them to see different routine and seeing your progress will help them. All the best now on this new journey and new environment. Until next Sunday see you then.😊
Hey Meka! Good shout re the M&S tips. I still need to M&S when I use heat though, but defo not as often as if I air dry. Thanks for the encouragement and guidance 🥰
May I ask what product you're using to seal your hair? Im going to start air deying my hair also. The less heat. The better. My hair is very, very fine. Sometimes i wanna give up, but when i watch your videos. It gives me hopes to continue my hair journey.

Girl, the frizz, tangles and dryness after leaving my hair out is so real! Defeats the purpose of straightening it!
Exactly minimising breakage is a must and keeping the hair simple is my goal😊great sharing ❤

That's not case for everyone 🤷🏾♀️

How does air drying break your hair OFF??
“Just be normal”😂. I totally agree. I’m also going back to the basics with my hair and I have seen the progress. And I don’t feel the burden of dealing with my hair as much.
That's the right attitude💪🏾
Thanks for the tip about using foaming wrap on your edges. Never knew about that one. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊😊😊
Heyyy, you're so welcome 🥰🥰

Heyyy Karla, defo done with braids! My mom has that 'thing' for wanting to comb regularly too. Lol!
I also stretch for 6-9 months without tangles and breakage.

Heyyyy, I use the Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk followed by some avocado oil and John Frieda Frizz Ease 🥰
@DenaJ OMG I forgot all about Frizz Ease!! I need to revisit that..
Braids damage relax hair down the line,mine thin so much I had yo cut a lot of my see through ends about 4 inches but it’s coming in good now and thick no more braids for me
They can be too much for our hair but they are so easy going 😩
Please let me know if you use any products that say vegan on the bottle. Thank you.
I don't think I do!
Hey, I’m copying you! How did u do that bun u have rn?
Ahahaha, it was so easy.. Might do a short and show ya😊❤️
Pls I’m the uk as well and my hair is just falling like gari n is so so dry no matter the amount of moisturiser I apply n just don’t know what to do so if u can assist me on how to get out of the dry hair
I've been obsessed with the Fenty moisturising deep conditioner. It's been keeping my hair very moisturised!
You can’t increase the strand thickness only the density of hair
Yup- that's what I intend to do. Sorry if that's not how it came across, but that's what I meant :)
In the UK as well, hair salon recommendations?
Ourah Hair Salon and Elite Hair Lounge 😊
What about aloe gel for edges?
I've never used it🤔 Don't think I'm interested either. I'm OK with my foam wrap 🥰
I hear you!
