This woman is really from Nigeria. Being bald as a girl is something almost everyone goes through
Black African style all over the continent😆
Why?!
I love, love, love that you are a TRUE 4C! Not many who say they are, are really the TRUTH! Thank you 🥰
You’re welcome my love! Thanks for watching 😊
Totally, agree. I've been a lazy natural. I have 4c hair and I must admit that I have not shown up for my hair the way that I should. So I'm now "consciously natural" and on a healthy hair journey because I know that my hair is nowhere near to where it should be. Thank you,.sis ❣️
Yhh I know right❤🙌🏾4c queen
Sacha Williams keep praying and asking The Lord how to do it. I won’t stop praying and researching videos like this. First I felt The Lord telling me to stop protecting styling with fake hair. I do believe it works for some but for me, it was the putting in some parts of my hair that wasn’t helpful. Plus the take down method was how I lost most of my hair. I wasn’t properly taking out the protecting style so it became a damaging style. Then over the past year I started coloring my greys at the salon. It was a pretty color but it’s still a chemical and I cannot change that. I went so long with being natural then I decided to color my hair...no good! Then I flat ironed!
Now I’ll be using ayervedic treatments (natural oils and herbs) plus no more breakage as I wear my own hair and detangle it slowly. Aloe Vera juice (luvnaturals products) daily and wash and deep condition weekly. May The Lord bless our hair journey. I’ll pray for you now.
Yesssss 4c like me!!!❤️
Finally, a Nigerian RUclipsr that's not forming phonetics . It's refreshing🙃🥰

@User 15 wym?
Great advice: don't compare, don't go natural unless you're willing to put in the work.
Your face hasn't change over the years!
Thank you!😂

The pictures look like they were taken yesterday. She didn't 'age' at all!
Wow........your 2yrs growth is my 3yrs growth. I will get there and I will also look back and smile at my journey. 😘😘😘
Ahhhhh 😂😂😂 your hair grew more in 2 years than mine has in 6 years! Loved this sit down method, it felt personal 💕🥰
me too ! i really love it. it's so real :)
Me 3 lol .. definitely goals
You are not alone. I am basically starting over minus the big chop.
Me 4!!! 😩😂😂

My house mistress in Ghana was so cruel. She'd wait until right before vacation, do a hair inspection, and make us cut all our hair back down low before vacation so we couldn't get it braided, twisted, or have a wig sewn in. The brave ones got glued in weave. 😭😭😭 That lady was so mean back then
hahahah depunking was the name ...........you can swerve all you want and they will get you during exams to depunk you..............crazy policy
Omg true😭🤣🤣🤣
Same for me ooo
That's so sad
My relaxers used to looked like a blowout too😄.
Mine too!
This video was so refreshing!! Reminds me of old RUclips before the algorithms started happily messing people up. Our hair is SO similar😍😍
What was old RUclips like? Educate me lol
I love how authentic you are! You are honestly one of my hair goals! I thought I was 4b 4c for a while sis had a deep look at my hair i am 4b all around. Thanks for this motivation!
Looking at your hair journey really motivated me. I always show pictures of your hair when people ask me about natural hair. Glad to see that loving afro and puff isn't a bad thing. Knowing about your channel is a really a blessing. Thanks
I just love your channel. Your love for your hair is inspirational and your hair is so beautiful and really hair goals. I am almost 2 years post relaxer and 1 year and 3 months post big chop. My hair length is at a maximum of 8 inches which means my hair grows an average of 1/3 inch per month or 4 inches per year. I trimmed my hair once since my big chop, about 3 months ago. I went natural because I wanted to and I embrace my natural hair and shrinkage because shrinkage gives my medium density hair the appearance of volume. I have never worn wigs, weaves or box braids. I wear my hair mostly in wash and gos and finger coils. We don't have the same hair type (I'm 4A/3C) but I watch your videos all the time for hair care tips as well as your beautiful styles. I will support and will continue to support this channel and look forward to more videos. Sending blessings and love to you from Jamaica.
I loved this video. I’ve followed you from the beginning. Well done on your progress. I enjoyed this video so much I didn’t want it to end.
Thanks for your channel! Its much needed :) One of the things I notice is that you are very accepting of your hair. I really believe that that has contributed hugely to your hair growth - trying to make your hair do something it doesn't really want to do is frustrating and damaging. Keep up the great work!
Can we just talk about that beautiful skin, healthy hair AND fantastic mental outlook? You GO girl! LOVE those healthy hair styles! LMAO - your happy smile with that one little inset video is MAGIC! I love that joy! LOVE IT!
I’m so glad I have found a young black African natural hair RUclipsr. I can literally see myself through you, even the way you speak. Definitely subscribing 😻😻💕💕💟💟💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
The side by side- then and now shots were so great! Your entire journey was very encouraging and inspiring, thank you for sharing it!
You are a true inspiration to women like me in transition from relaxed to natural. I am seven months transitioning and I have so much hope as a result of your experiences and success. Thank you so much for going back all the way!👍🙏🏾
Thank you SO much for posting this!!! 4c girlies need to see what our hair looks like when it's long. You are an inspiration!
Wow I really love this, the best 4c hair video- finally someone I actually believe has my 4c hair
This is the most best hair video on RUclips I have ever watched ,I love your video
Love it! I did my first big chop in 2012, then relaxed in 2015 and chopped again in 2016. This time around my hair feels much healthier without the steep learning curve that I had to go through the first time. I've learned to recognize my hair's response to products that really help maintain moisture vs things that just make it feel good to the touch temporarily. And as much as I love a good afro puff, I've learned the supreme importance of protective styling (especially overnight)
The thing is it's not that the relaxer can't straighten your hair, but I have come to realize that a lot of hairdressers don't know how to properly relax hair and as such you end up with badly relaxed hair. I'm a natural now, but only became I've always wanted to try being natural and when I moved to the u.s the change in type of water started to damage my hair.
Ayyyyyeee finally! Always wanted to see your journey! Let me get my popcorn and take some notes!
😂😂 thanks boo!
I big chopped may 2012. I chopped my hair off again 2016 I wore a fade all that year until fall of 2017, then I left it alone. I'm growing my hair out now. I like to look back at old pictures to see where I started loll. I enjoyed seeing your journey! I love to see what another person has been through regarding their hair. Btw you still look the same!! Loll ☺❤
Enjoyed seeing your journey and style evolution. Tfs
I feel that I'm in the middle of the journey I'm very near to bra strap length and I feel that my hard work is having results 😍 thank you for your inspirational video 🤩
You’ve always been blessed with healthy hair ☺️
All your hair styles are very nice. I have learned a lot from you. Thank you
Love this video so much ! It reminds me of my hair journey a lot. You have really great personal down to earth videos and I love that. It feels authentic ! I’m a little past mid back length and I’m loving it😍 I feel I’ve mastered my hair and what it likes. But I’m always trying to learn more about the science and make my hair care more easy and simple. I don’t think I want my hair to get to waist length though because it’s very dense I have thick coarse strands so detangling can be work and I finger detangle. My hair is usually in twists though like you and it helps so much😌 but I also love how beautiful long hair looks so I’ll probably keep growing it out.
So happy you took the time to make this video love :)
Stunning growth sis. Wow. Excellent work!
Thank you so much!!❤️
Well detailed video of your growth journey,,encouraging those of us to be patient and its not the same for everyone, some of us hair grow slower than some but its the way we take care of our hair and scalp , knowing our hair type and what products is best for our hair type plays a part in our growth also .
It was so funny to see you mocking your own her when it was short...when my own her is even shorter than yours in the pics lol... Thank you so much for the great content ... keep it up, girl! got one more follower and like!
From 20:30 got me teary eyed.... What an amazing journey... your hair is so beautiful
What a beautiful illustration of years of hair growth. Interesting you lived in China. I know some businessmen from Nigeria that also live in China purchasing merchandise for import & export. Thank you for sharing your hair journey.
You’re Beautiful! Love your energy! Thank you for sharing, with photos. You are an inspiration!👍🥰💋
Your twists look so cute!
I totally agree with doing it because you like it. I went natural back in 2009 my hair got to mid-back length. Than I was getting frustrated and not practicing proper techniques and started getting breakage. So I than loc’d my hair up. My hair has been locked almost three years now, but I miss my loose natural hair. So I’m getting ready to transition back to my loose natural hair! Love your tips!
Thank you! 🥰🥰
@westafricanbaby: I love the confidence and joy that you are expressing regarding your natural. Unfortunately, due to the media, what we have been constantly exposed to and have been ingraved in our minds, it is not always easy for a black female to accept and even like their own hair. So this video was encouraging and motivating.
Thanks! 😉👍🏼
I am always here for every video... thank you.... this was very helpful..
Your hair journey is inspirational... am Almost 5 years natural in august. I big chop after 1 month of transitioning. I couln't deal with the 2 different textures. I have had set backs like(dealing with alopicia, in my second year...) my hair is uneven because I accidentally cut it Like that. But beside that I love my hair.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful hair journey. So inspirational.
Thank you so much for watching!❤️
This video is so cool! Shout out to your success hair journey from Washington DC btw no matter what people say you have 4c hair
Heyyyy
This is nice.....very encouraging👍😘❤!
I've at it for 1yr 7months....I have about 10-11" now.....so excited actually
Im happy for you, nice story. And good your showing pictures.
I loved this video! Inspirational 😍
Thank you so much for charing your progress! It's refreshing to see true 4c representation. I do wonder have you ever experimented with wash and go's? I ask because that's what I've been testing but I think my ends are suffering. I'm 4c, low-porosity and never any longer than 4 inches :'(
Thanks for this great video. Beautiful hair.
Sorry about the background noise😩😩. I hope you guys enjoy the video! What stage are you at in your hair journey? Did you transition before doing the big chop?? Are you comfortable with your hair now?? What is your hair length goal??
I want mine very long
Definitely become more comfortable with my hair now! My short term length goal is chin length or a little longer. Long term hair goal would be BSL.
As long as yours is now🥺👀 yours so long and thick😍😭
My hair was on the long side when it was permed. My big chop was going completely bald. I was really slim and felt like a super model. The 4-6 inch fro length was super awkward for me. Then it got fun because I've always enjoyed styling my hair creatively. The transition from puffy to BS/mid-back is weird because I'm so used to architectural styles. When it was permed I did it with pins. And goodness did I love that my puffy stage made it so easy to build a do and with barely any pins. The 'hang' can be bothersome as I get used to it because with my style instincts, I want my hair to stop flopping around😄 But I'm getting used to it. I love the length and will grow it longer so I'm just learning how to get my looks in a different way.
I am 1 year 10 months post big chop. Naa I didn't transition. I big chopped. 😄 Yh I am comfortable with my hair because I wear it 24/7. In the 1st few months it was a bit uncomfortable but now I'm good. For length I don't mind how long my hair will grow but mid-back will be fine. I love volume more and I'm glad I have that.
Omg!!! I love how ur hair shrinks up!!!!!! My hair shrinks like crazy 2 girl and I have 4c, it’s dense as hell and low porosity my hair has come a looooooggggggg way am still always learning after 7 years but I love being natural I’ve been watching you forever!!!!! and always loved your content your the reason why am obsessed with roller sets only in the winter though lol it’s too damn hot for all that right now!!!!!!! Lol
I really love your curls, they look boommmm
Just did my 2nd big chop, my first one I was 16 now I'm 22. I do miss my hair but at the same time I like it short. Thank you for sharing your hair journey😊
“Oh my Good” lol I love your accent it’s just like my grandmas ❤️‼️
You have a beautiful hair and a dazzling smail , good continution !😁
I literally did my big chop a week before you, and my was also after 6 months of transitioning- couldn’t deal with burning my scalp but the relaxer ending up looking like I blew it out after 4 hours 😭.
Your hair is 🙌🏾, my never seems to grow past armpit length when stretched ever!
Yesss I Started Watching U 4 Year's Ago And I Definitely Learned From You Cause Iam 4c Hair And U R A True 4c My Stage Is Bra Strap Right Now I Want To Get Mid Back I Love This Tutorial And Thank You For Sharing 💯💯💖💖💖
Finally. I was waiting for this video,
and I have to say that you are beautiful just like your hair. I've been following you for a long time. I also usually see your comments in other posts on Instagram. Kisses from Spain
Thank you sooo much!! I really appreciate it💕
Lovely, I also don't use combs in my hair. My hair hates combs...and yes perm used to make my hair blown instead of bone straight.. Glad to see someone with similar hair like mine.. Lots of love
Do you ever worry about not getting all the shed hair that sheds in protective styles? Doesn’t it tangle over time if not combed out? I’ve been wanting to stop using comb would love how it works for you! Thanks
@@Blahgirl283 type 4 hair, especially 4c hair usually works well when its finger de-tangled . you can use a wide tooth comb once in 4-5months. But once you wash,finger detangle, seal in moisture in hair while wet then style it. Sleep with a satin clothe/bonnet/pillow case. Hair turn out fine. Try it for a month
I really enjoyed this video 😁💕💕
Love your hair, thank you so much for sharing. God bless
Hey girl. Great video. Inspirational. Do you have any videos about how you finger detangle. I just started finger detangling again randomly lol cause I was lazy and it was easier. I'm thinking of sticking to it. I just need some tips
Wow your length retention has been great. I switched in 2013 as well but I only have nearly bra strap length. Plus the density of your hair of amazing. I’m sure it makes things take longer but I love the density of your hair.
Edit: I noticed you didn’t really cut your hair after the big chop so maybe that one of the impactful differences in our journey. I got scissor happy and would clip my hair like every 3 months lol. I have since stopped that madness. QUESTION: how do you get your root to comply without a brush or comb? My roots tend to be less smooth than the ends so I end up with two different textures if I don’t rake through my roots before braiding/twisting.
Your hair evolution is so buitiful you have really good hair..i hope my hair can grow as much as you. You have amazing hair..wow! How do you get your hair soooo long👍🏾
Her hair grew sooooo much in 1-2 years.😭even her hair in 2014 is what i aspire for my hair to be like.
Density goals!!
Thank you for the very informative video, it is also entertaining. You are a very beautiful young lady.
This was perfect. I subscribed
I liked and subscribe immediately...... it really relaxing watching u ..nice one💖
ALLLLLLLL Great tips, thank you, and I don't even know if my hair is really 4c hair (LOL)!
Thank you for this. For some reason I would imagine my hair should look a certain way after sometime. I ended up damaging my hair in attempt to straightening it so that it can look longer. Rightnow my hair is a year old after my big chop & it's at neck length. I learnt to respect my shrinkage and now i love it❤️
New subscriber, you’re my hair goals ❤️
They have started recommending your videos..your hair is beautiful
this was a wonderful video! thank you
Going on 3 years fully natural in November. My hair is now between armpit length and bra strap length. My goal is tail bone length. Love your hair journey video. 🙌🏾🙏🏾 stay blessed and be safe ☺️
I want to get to bsl. Wish you all the success on your journey and I hope that you will get to tbl
Anna Burke I wish you the same, you will get there👌🏾👍🏾
@@Firewalkwithme84 thank you we can do it
Its quite rare to see hair that's actually similar to mine in a video..😯 and I love it!!!!🙌😘
Thanks for your hard work!!😝❤👍
Thank you❤ you're amazing🔥
Loved this video thanks. I also have problems with my middle hair shorter than the rest and texture is more brittle. Any ideas of how to attend to this section and what to use. I always do this section on its own. Any ideas of what else l can do?...x
Very nice journey.
Thank you soo much!
Finally someone with 4c hair. I hate relaxing and want to go natural
Loved this
Thank you so much for this video 😊. Wow, so motivating. I enjoyed listening to you paa. Your hair in the early stages is a lot like mine. 😂. Oh but what happened between the other years.😂😂😂. Thank you so much though.
Lovely journey. ❤ Would love to get to mid back, but my hair seems stagnant at collarbone length. 😩😩
Excellent. Your hair is very long and healthy. Can you tell me what oils or creams have helped your hair grow and lengthen within two years to this extent?
I really loved this thanks
I am bsl i have been natural since 2013, had to do a big chop 3 and half years ago. Was getting my hair straighten once a year to cut slit ends, went to someone new styles and dhe damaged my hair. Never got straighten again, and i cut my own ends now. My journey
I miss BGLH! That blog was EVERYTHING.
I still go there every now and then and LHCF. The discussions and experiments/challenges were just interesting to read.
I hate it wen I find nice detailed videos after years 💔🤦🏿♀️
Love your Channel what are some of the treatment you use for your hair growth
Nice hair you got. Pls can you tell me what to use to make my hair thick and fuller?
I made the best choice by choosing u as one of my favorite influencers. The truth is most Naturals don't want to put in healthy practices and see results in time. They want that 1 magic product to solve it all. 😄 I am glad you've shown how you began and it has been almost 8 YEARS! I understand the low cut back in school. We did that too in Ghana. 😄 I also chose to go back to being Natural because it's the best decision. I am glad I found you because my hair is getting to 2 years post big chop and I also have thick, coarse, voluminous hair which couldn't be processed fully by relaxers. I am learning and I'm happy even after your 7th year you are still learning about your kinks. I am on the right path then. Looks like no one's hair looks like their previous year. Thanks for sharing @westaficanbaby. 🤗🤗➿➿〰️〰️💃🏽💃🏽🔥🔥🔥
You are flawless 😍
You have really come a long way 😍
I have all your videos on my laptop as inspiration.
How do you combat single Strand knots and split ends
It took me cutting my hair to realize I should have done wash and gos from the beginning and stuck too it. Some times the natural hair community can be overwhelming.
Right? I have just learned to listen to my hair...still learning actually
Thanks for this lovely video. It was enlightening and refreshing. I think I'll stop using combs in my hair altogether for a while and see if that helps me to retain more length. It's been 4 years since I returned to natural and the longest part of my hair is about 14" lol. I have seen evidence that my hair grows at a reasonable rate so I think I am losing much of my growth to poor grooming habits and maybe insufficient moisturizing. You inspire me to do better!!
I love your dialect!!!!
I luv your accent🥰I sounds sooooo pretty
This was incredibly inspiring 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️, I’m in the 2013 stage
Nice 1 sister!!
