    I just big chopped. I’m planning to do them every 2 months to make sure my routine is working. I’ll probably decrease them over time, but I want to catch sign of breakage early. I’m not concerned about the growth. I’m concerned about the retention.

    Great talk. I don't do them that often, but i'm seeing progress, I usually check with photos, since i have a pretty good idea what the length is when i stretch it. When I shampoo my hair tends to loosen its curl pattern, so once again if its passed my shoulders i'm good. Thanks for the topic.

    I just don't check because I've been known to be uncouth with my hair habits, so I definitely refuse to face the consequences of my shenanigans by doing length checks 😅

    That yellow hat looks fantastic on you!!
    I don't bother using the tape measure unless I'm measuring precisely how much to cut. It's too fiddly otherwise.
    4:53 Hard agree! I've decided not to check my length until the end of the year to stop myself obsessing.
    7:12 I think occasional length checks would be okay, like if it gets super long to classic or knee or something.

    I remember the first time I saw a YTer doing a length check I thought it was the strangest thing. It never occurred to me to do one. Certainly, I understand now why it is done, but it isn't a practice that I picked up as a part of my routine. It isn't something that I feel is necessary for me.

    Length checks are exciting, I can't do mini braids as I will be constantly checking, I have to cornrow it away.

    I do length checks quite often. I also take pictures sometimes then you can see how much your hair has grown. I saw a picture with my hair after blow drying to my back it wasnt even bone straight. But it looked dry.
    I realized my hair could be much longer if i give it the right care.
    But I dont have a problem to grow my hair to me the issue is caring for your hair the right way and the length will come. Conclusion: the length is there you just have to retain it with good care patience and consistency!! Using natural products..knowing your hair needs ect is important.

    5:08 Used to check monthly but with time I’ve reduced to once every 3-6 months. Just last month I told myself I would reduce to once or twice a year. Constant length checking definitely gives a certain level of anxiety and frustration especially if positive results are not showing.

  • @LimitlessBloom
    @LimitlessBloom 3 месяца назад

    I used to do them very briefly, then I stopped for a few years then started doing them again. At first I was all about health and thickness and I knew the length will come with it however when I dealt with postpartum set back, that triggered the hair pulling to see the progress lol and I haven’t stopped since. I’m also not too too obsessed with length anymore right now which was one of the reasons I stopped too cos I thought why is everyone so obsessed with the hair pulling. I’m out 😅. Now I only want healthy length. We’re not holding on to damage hair for the sake of waist length which I see so many other naturals doing lol

      Hi there. I have done many videos on edges. They have a whole playlist of their own! You can use Rosemary, teatree, coffee massage etc but I think gentleness, avoiding tight styles, sleeping on silk and moisturising are more important.
