I just recently discovered the Dickey Method. Just like when I was relaxing my hair, now that I’m natural, I’ve reached a plateau with growth. It’s healthier and longer now than ever since I’m natural, but I think I’m stuck because of dryness. My hair is not getting the moisture it needs, so I’ve been binge watching videos of women who are using this (Dickey) method to hear their thoughts and see their results. I’m convinced this is going to take my hair growth and health to the next level.👍🏼
Competitive swimmer here. Swim caps aren't meant to keep your hair dry or keep the chlorine out. The purpose of the cap is to keep the water and hair out of your face.
I absolutely love co-washing my hair every day. And I find it behaves better (less tangled, grows faster etc) when I wash more often during the week. But it makes me a bit sad when my curls are popping on day two and I know I’m gonna wet it 😂
Wonderful! I am on a 30 day hair wash daily challenge, anx on day 2 as well for cowash daily 4 days a week, and also putting tea in air and 4 days a week a rice water rinse.
I’ve been experimenting with this too recently, kinda similar to the Anthony Dickey method, but for me I cowash once every two days, and yeah my scalp is definitely waayy less itchier and very moisturized, my curls are just healthier on general!🤗.... *side note I just realized why I’ve been seeing your video updates on Instagram but not actually receiving the notification on RUclips, turns out RUclips decided to unsubscribe from your channel on my behalf🙄🙄 Glad I’m back!!
Ahh I went to his salon! Lol I didn't get anything done, I was just accompanying my friend but I loved how he did her hair! Thats a great regimen to have and I'm really happy to hear it helped heal your scalp ❤️ And thats upsetting 😥I've heard about the glitch happening to a lot of people but that's good to know, thank you for tell me!
I never knew about cowashing until I went swimming this forced me to wet and wash hair and condition everyday and for the first time ever I’m seeing growth . I have since stopped swimming but cow ash at least 4 times a week even in braids and my hair is growing like crazy
A lot of times that means that one of the products isn't agreeing with your hair and drying out your hair causing webbing. Could be too much protein because I noticed with certain products I get it and I stopped using them and my hair even though type 4 easily seperates and detangles without webbing. Even some gels can have too much hold and cause the hair to web. I get that with Wetline. But my other gels has slip and my strands seperates easy💯
@@curlynella1011this is the truth. I’ve experienced this with Shea Moisture products, they turn my hair into a rat’s nest😮 when I steer clear of them, my 4C hair is dreamy😍
@@MrsJ65678 yes and no. You CAN (co)wash your hair everyday as a curly hair person but you definitely don't NEED to, especially if you spend alot of money on products or use products that require sulfates to remove like silicones or grease.
@@MrsJ65678 I agree for my hair. Since I started washing and conditioning it every day and my hair is the healthiest it has ever been. It has changed (for the better), and is now retaining length. I do give all glory to Yahuah.
@@rosalynmartin519 Thanks for asking! It's gone very well! I transitioned for a total of 18 months before chopping off the relaxed ends and my hair has really thrived since! It's still a learning process, but I mostly keep my hair in protected styles so it is very healthy and thick and I'm enjoying learning and seeing my real curls, although wash days are long. I get a lot of compliments when I wear my hair natural. In terms of length, when stretched it's nearing bra straps. My last relaxer was December 2020 for reference. I plan out my styles in advance, I like closures and braids as my go to protective styles, but take breaks after from tension as well and make sure to deep condition and protein treat regularly. Leaving my hair alone and using heat sparingly for the most part has done wonders.
Am I the only one who only washes her hair twice per month and does not remoisturize between wash days? If I wet my hair between wash days my hair becomes dry, frizzy and tangle-prone. If I leave my hair alone in the twists, finger coils and wash and gos, my hair is fine by wash day. That is why as you say, knowing your hair is important.
@@amberblack1009 this. Depending on how much build up you get on your hair from products will determine how easy it will be to get moisture back in your hair during the week and whether you can pile on more product. Also why you never want overdo it with the amount of product you apply at once. Butters, castor oil, and silicones, and of course grease, should all be used no more than 1-2x a week and need to be washed with a thorough shampoo session. A little goes a long way for all. Definitely no more than once a week with grease and sulfates need to be used as you know.
My new favorite. Thanks for another great video. I think I need to incorporate co-washing into my routine again. I don’t know what my hair is on during quarantine but it’s definitely acting like a two year old on a tantrum.
Literally laughed out loud and I know the feeling! I stopped cowashing for so long now but every once in a while seems like it would do me some good. Definitely try it out (again lol)!
I haven't found much that stopped that, except I didn't get them as much back in the day when I didn't define my hair as frequently. But a good conditioner with slip helps as well!
Girlllll my patience. Wash day is so long for me i just have to use a large tooth comb. But I’ve been noticing a lot of shedding for me so i May start doing it
Chimere try using wetline gel and scurl activator under or grease on top or both... will lessen tangles for wash day and train the hair to be curly.....i also detangle OUT of shower sitting in a chair using suave conditioner mixed with oil like olive oil for amazing slip and i use a detangling comb at this point
Kerrie Child of God hi! I have a pretty good routine . I do most detangling with water oil and raw aloe gel before i wash. But honestly yo think it may be the new products I’m using. I bought a new conditioner and it’s SO thick and ever since i started using it, detangling had been so hard so i think I’m going to go back to my old conditioner. They say if it’s not broke, don’t fix it
I love your hair however, am going natural and I wash my hair once a week but still find my scalp itchy just at the week ends. So trying this is a must!
Thank you! And yes, give it a try but do be mindful of protein levels in your hair, just gotta throw that out there every time lol And also, I did a lot more hot oil treatments, especially in the winter time so maybe that could help. And then one more thing lol but try out different products because your scalp could be sensitive to something in your shampoos/conditioners/ leave ins or it could not like a particular oil. It's a lot to look into but there are so many things that can contribute to an itchy scalp, but hope you find relief soon! ❤️
I love how black people make products that benefit EVERYONE not just themselves... such a cool product! Random question, where did you get you shower caddy shelf? hate the metal ones! they rust so fast!!
Same actually, especially when they aren't moisturized I find. But I tried to apply a heavier cream on the ends like every other day and it helps a bit, it's truly trial and error out here lol
was there protein your conditioner?? either build up or fine hair needed hydrolysed protein. I'm asking as I have similar hair to you and din't want to ruin my hair lol
Just did a co wash during this video lol!! U got me soo motivateddd. Eight now my hair is up to my shoulders. My goals is up to where my boobs start lol. I'll be replying to this comment when I reach this!!!! Probably will take years 😳😳
Thank you! And yea, I've been sweating a lot on the scalp and it itches but simultaneously still have a dry feeling scalp lol can't win but surprisingly this helped
This is my first summer as a fully natural. This is good to know because sometimes I feel like I need to wash my hair more often with due to working as well! Keep on sharing your journey! Love it!
Some people say that the longer their hair gets, the more they see this happens. I would agree with that. Also, because of our hair textures and curl patters, it just makes it more prone to do that. Friction, from when we're laying down for example, contributes to that. There are just so many factors but I try to keep it stretched and I detangle at least once a week. Doesn't solve the issue entirely but it helps ❤️sorry you're experiencing those pesky webs though love
Yea I agree, take it slow, usually protein overload is a gradual process so gradually working in moisture while being careful with your strands (because usually hair is brittle with protein overload) should help. It'll definitely get better with time, it's happened to me as well 💕
So cornrows probably stretch my hair the most. I also like wearing twists (and have a video up about how I install my twists as well) but I'm in the process of looking into more things because I can see this is really an issue for a lot of people, including myself! (and ps, I love your name!)
Awww thank you so much 😍I hope we can find the solution for this it very annoying lol I'm cornroll my heir next wash day and again thanks for responding 😊
CockyRetrospect just came back from Trader Joe’s and got 3 bottles of the tea tree conditioner for $3.99 thanks so much can’t wait to try on my daughters hair!
Sameee😫! I need my ends I really don’t want them to break. I consistently dc using the diy steaming method at least 2x a week. The fear is driving me straight into a actually hair routine 😂

Do you still do this?
Now that my hair has gotten longer, I am also seeing that web effect of tangles!
It's literally the worst! But yea, comes with the territory lol
I have been near tears dealing with weblike tangled. It is one of the most frustrating natural hair experiences.
I'm sorry to hear that 😕keeping the hair stretched for me helps as well as a conditioner with good slip

for swimming adding raw shea butter or grease will help block the chloride from your hair strands
Thank you
How can we not follow and do what you're doing. Look at the results. Look at that hair. LOVE IT!
I love to swim. I co wash constantly in the summer. My hair just dries out crazy in this NYC heat. Thanks for sharing.
ugh you’re like one of my favorite youtubers. Love your videos.
And thank you!! ❤️❤️

Youre the first person that talked about the "spider webs" my hair is an inch away from waist length (stretched) and i am noticing them more and more
Oh I am late to the game! So informative! I love how chill your videos are
I been co washing everyday for a while and let’s just say my curls are curling and growth and retention has been ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Remoisturizing my hair is a nightmare. It makes my hair drier, like what was the point.
@@amberblack1009 Exactly!
Amber Black maybe it’s the products you’re using because I had the same problems until I changed my regimen

I haven't found much that stopped that, except I didn't get them as much back in the day when I didn't define my hair as frequently. But a good conditioner with slip helps as well!
CockyRetrospect that’s something I didn’t think about (the part about defining hair often)
Ayeee ❤❤ bout to watch this while I eat my dinner 😜
Girlllll my patience. Wash day is so long for me i just have to use a large tooth comb. But I’ve been noticing a lot of shedding for me so i May start doing it
I definitely will stick to my wide tooth comb but just wanted to finger detangle for this week lol so totally understand lol

@@dcwood2137 yes to flaking and alot to no not to frequent work twice a week mostly
Wow. I would have a fungal itchy scalp so bad ... good luck.
Great video!!! Love seeing your hair
Thank you love! ❤️
My problem is the shrinkage too. And going to bed on wet hair is for the birds.
Honestly, going to bed with wet hair isn't it 😭 I've blow dried my twists more recently
I love how black people make products that benefit EVERYONE not just themselves... such a cool product!
Random question, where did you get you shower caddy shelf? hate the metal ones! they rust so fast!!
Target! Its less than 10 bucks and yes, super easy to clean
I still struggle with knots on my ends I wear 2 or 4 braids and they always ball up and tangle 🤦🏽
Same actually, especially when they aren't moisturized I find. But I tried to apply a heavier cream on the ends like every other day and it helps a bit, it's truly trial and error out here lol

You have my exact curl pattern and texture
Can apply conditioner to my scalp when co washing
Your hair is too beautiful
I am still hoping and patiently waiting for mine to grow like that
Thank you so much 🤗🤗 Hair will definitely grow with care and patience, but do enjoy the process/ journey as it's happening ❤️❤️
I love your videos. Just out curiosity, why cowashing everyday? Is it because you workout?
Thank you! And yea, I've been sweating a lot on the scalp and it itches but simultaneously still have a dry feeling scalp lol can't win but surprisingly this helped

Yea I agree, take it slow, usually protein overload is a gradual process so gradually working in moisture while being careful with your strands (because usually hair is brittle with protein overload) should help. It'll definitely get better with time, it's happened to me as well 💕
There’s another cap called Swimma Cap. There’s reviews on it if you’d like more information on the cap.
Amazing! I'll check them out, thank you
What stretched hair style you do can you give me some tips pls cause these spider web is bit much 😂
So cornrows probably stretch my hair the most. I also like wearing twists (and have a video up about how I install my twists as well) but I'm in the process of looking into more things because I can see this is really an issue for a lot of people, including myself! (and ps, I love your name!)
Are you high porosity given all the webbing?
