That afro after the cut was everything!!!
I didn’t feel pretty after my big chop either. I remember my parents wouldn’t even look at me. Talk about hurt, lol. It took a couple months before I started feeling like myself. I’m about to do another big cut (color damage) and I was feeling antsy about it. Now, here you are in my recommended videos all inspiring and awesome and I’m feeling much better about it! ❤️
I feel ya. Instead not my parents, but my ex!
I have heat damage from getting a blowout a year ago. I hate I had it done..I remember noticing no heat protection was used. When I left the salon that day, all I smelled was burnt hair.☹️I washed my hair the next day, and my curl pattern was gone in certain areas...2 months later I had short pieces at the top of my head, and straight areas that didn’t break off but also didn’t curl anymore. My hair is super long and thick..I’m really fighting with just going ahead and cutting it. Thanks for the video..This helps a lot.❤️
I have the same curly ends and roots but the middle is wavy !!
It's such a struggle sis! 😭
Fist time seeing this video. Love how you described your ‘attachment’ to long hair. I was the exact same way. Afraid to let go of heat damage just to hold onto length because I identified my beauty by the length of my hair. So happy stumbled upon your Chanel. Have been enjoying your videos.
Awe thank you! It's such a weird attachment to some people, but I know a lot of people felt like me. I'm so glad you felt seen! Once I cut off the damage it was such a weight lifted off my shoulders. This new growth has been worth the wait! 🤎 wishing you endless hair growth sis!
@@curlelia thank you 🙏🏽 your response is heart warming. I wish you the very same. Much love ❤️
This is super relatable.🤩 I remember seeing your post when you big chopped, and l was like WOW, super surprised because your hair was already so long, and you had the courage to choose health over lenght. For which l felt so identified, because l going through the same thing. l had damaged my hair Dec18/Jan19, and it was hitting me after what l did, and your post was like reassurance that “It’s okay to start over”. 🔥🥰 Ever sinc you’ve been my curly-inspo💕
LOVE THIS! Yes girl, everyone has their own timeline. I started over SO many times. You'll have a moment where you'll realize nothing is worth damaging your curls! Thank you for the support lovie! ❤️
I just went through the same thing... just chopped mine and I loveeeee the cut ❤️
I'm so happy I found your channel! Finally someone with similar hair😭 Growing up in a Dominican household myself I never got the chance to appreciate my curls so yup had the heat damage. It takes some mental strength to cut it because I've always been self-conscious about my hair & how it barely passed my shoulders, especially curly. Thank you for sharing your experience! The results are amazing!😍 God bless!🙏🏼💖
Thank you so much for sharing your journey!! This was so inspirational. I had a similar journey--I grew up perming my hair, dying my hair, flat-ironing my hair, so much damage! I am also Dominican, with thick hair and different curl patterns. This definitely inspired me to cut my hair. I love your channel, keep up the amazing work :)
Awe thank you!!! You're so welcome love! Growing up Dominican really is something, we'd spend countless hours figuring out the best way to keep our hair straight the longest, instead of spending that time to understand our natural hair... Even tho it took time, I'm glad to have gone through the journey! Till this day my grandmother is asking me when I'm going back to the salon 😭 😂 Baby steps tho
This video helped me so much, just starting my natural hair journey! One of your subscribers brought me here ❤️❤️
Just chopped mine I love it my hair was at my waist but damaged from a keratin I will never damage my hair again once and done
Your hair is just beautiful... I did my big chop a year ago and did a curly pixie and it is now grown out to my shoulders. And because of you and others I follow have shown me what's good for my hair.and I now love my curls . My hair is alot like yours but not as thick. Thank you❤️
My hair is that length now and you just gave me another idea for a new hairstyle. Inspiration has no fear.
New sub. This is motivating and I love your curls! My hair has been slowly growing because I neglected my ends and now that I have been taking care of them I have been having more growth. I am at about armpit length when my curls are straight. I can’t wait to check out your curl journey! 😀💕
I loved your haircut. It's so beautiful!
thank you! ❤️
Thanks for sharing this💕, I just did my big chop 2 weeks ago. Like you I had long hair my entire life so right after the cut immediately I started obsessing about growing it out fast instead of enjoying the journey of relearning my hair and embracing my new head of curls! So watching your video definitely was needed! You have a new subscriber
She did an amazing job on the cut. I’m to the point in my journey were I’m not afraid to let go of damage and also I’ve the length to spare a few inches so that helps. After I cut off my damage my hair growth was so much better. My hair is to my butt but shrinks up to my shoulders 😒 but I don’t mind shrinkage.
Thank you love! I'm so glad that you're at that point in your journey because that's the most difficult part! Shrinkage isn't the worst thing, shrinkage means healthy hair so lets look at it that way! Sending you lots of hair growth energy
I need to find your stylist!!!!!! I want an even cut so bad!!!!
my hair was so severely heat damaged that i had to get my hair chopped in 2019 as well, it’s still devastating that my hair doesn’t look like yours though :( but you’ve given me the motivation to continue growing my hair in hopes it’ll start growing down and not out like it currently is!
My curl pattern is 3C. My hair is like yours. I remembered getting the Big Chop in 2017. I'm now focusing on maintaining healthy hair, I want long curley curls. Your hair is beautiful 😍
I love your curls!
I relate to everything you've said in this video 1000% percent
I love your story.
People in the USA are so luck. So many good curly hair stylists. The "I cannot put my hair in a ponytail" is what I felt every time someone cut my hair in my country. I always ended up with Darth Vader's short helmet hair.
Turns out I can't part with short hair anymore, but nowadays I mostly cut it myself. I found a hairstylist here once and she gave a wonderful curly A bob. When I went back to trim the cut she gave me helmet hair. Now I have to find another hairstylist. At least now more of them are popping up in my city.
Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that! Where are you located? We do have phenomenal hairstylists out here. But honestly, Instagram is how I found mine, I'm sure it could work for you as well! I'd love to help!
Omg i feel inspired to go get cut. I suffered from heat damage a year ago and keep telling myself to let it grow and then get cut but what am I holding on too. When you said it that did it for me
Don't feel bad about holding on to it, we've ALL been there. The important thing is now you're ready to make the change! Getting a huge haircut is something you have to mentally be in a space for, so I'm definitely excited for you!! ❤️
Love this! You’re super relatable and local. Thank you so much
That stylist is goooood, she look like Edward✂️hand lol
Great video. Is nice to see this kind of videos
You inspire me 💓💓lots of love
this means a lot, thank you love!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS VIDEO! Your hair is so beautiful!
I’m super late with this video but you are super gorgeous 🥰
Your hair and skin are absolutely beautiful
How did you style your hair before bed? I have pretty long hair, always been natural but I feel like it’s time for a real cut!! I want to make sure i know everything I’ll have to face lol
I used a satin scarf and a bonnet! I have videos on my instagram about it, but I may have to make one for RUclips! Long hair isn't too too difficult. I actually found, for me- having short hair was harder! My hair is so dense that it wasn't as easy to just throw it in a bun you know?
I totally relate ! I wish I would have seen This last May, I was in the exact same situation, after I had my first deva cut and big chopped. It felt so weird and I felt like I don’t look pretty. Couldn’t leave it for long and ended up straightening and damaging my hair all again 🤦🏽♀️
It's completely natural to feel like that. I didn't straighten it because I knew that in the long run, I would've caused more harm than good... How's your hair now?!
I agree same here length
my hair is exactly like yours when damaged i just cut mine also it sucked to cut the ends cause they curled so pretty but the middle was all wavy. i have hair like yours and i’m dominican also ahah
So relatable. My hair has the exact same straight middle and curly ends 🤦🏽♀️. Tempted but scared eek. What did you do with your short hair when you went to sleep?
yay!! Do you have any hair growth tips?
I'm making a video on this very soon! ❤️
Hiiiii New Subbie Here! How often do you shampoo your hair and how often do you deep condition? P.S. we’re hair twins!!
im struggling with my heat damaged hair and thats a pain in the neck.. is so hard to live with
Sujii Arias girl trust me, I know 😭 are you transitioning?!
Yes! 🤦🏽♀️ it’s a mess, a lot of textures, breakage 😩 horrible
The length of your hair right after your big chop-how long did it take for that to grow?
But how did you get the heat damage? Was it throught stretching your hair with heat?
My heat damage came from getting weekly blowouts at the salon, and flat ironing my hair!
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Do you stretch your hair with heat?
Maybe that was part of it?
I would get a blow out weekly at my go-to Dominican salon. You know we play no games with these blowouts 😭
