- Let's chat about the time I went two months without washing my hair. I wanted to share what happened to my hair and my realization that the reality of long 4c is not always as glorified as may seem. It's takes sacrifice, patience, and letting go of your attachment to your hair.

I agree!!!! I’m a 3c natural and I havnt washed for 3 months now. But my hair has grown ALOT IN THOSE 3 months I ALSO HAVE MY HAIR IN TWISTS! I honestly agree with you when u said the less manipulation the more growth! I also believe it’s just shampoo In general it strips the hair atleast for my hair it does. It doesn’t matter if it’s sulfate free my hair gets tangled and matted.
Btw your hair is gorgeous I love the way it looks naturally packed together when u ran your hands through it SO PRETTY 😊
Hello, So did you leave your hair in twists all three months? What did you do to keep it clean?
This may sound GROSS but I haven’t washed my hair in 5 months and my hair has grown 6 inches, it’s insane! It went from not going beyond mid neck length (with shrinkage) FOR OVER 2 YEARS and without shrinkage it was underarm length, now it’s shoulder length with shrinkage and without shrinkage it reaches the bottom of my ribcage and SOOOO THICK!! in only 5 months! Not washing your hair for such long periods of time is game changing for length. My boyfriend keeps wondering how my hair got so long and THICK and I don’t want to tell him I haven’t washed it in months because I know he’s going to look at me sideways 😭
You’re right. I’m at bra strap right now (4c), and I see that the longer it gets, the harder it will be to take care of it.
When it comes to washing it try to do 4 or maybe 8 sections. I leave my hair in two twist and put a scarf over it when it durning the weekday.
Same my Nigerian 4c hair is past bra strap and ashamed to say I left it 7 months. I’ve given up completely
@@gmarie3053 This is a late response but try the Curl Peace line of products for detangling!! Their Tender Headed detangler is great! It's very moisturizing, you can leave it in and it makes comb outs so much easier! It contains marshmallow root which is good for detangling!
@@gmarie3053 😮😮
You’re absolutely gorgeous. I’m sure you know this. Carry on.
It's all good. I've learned the same: the less manipulation, the better.
You could go without washing your hair for a decade and I'd be too distracted by your beauty to notice so there's that
🙄
Awww that's sweet!😍
...But so not true😆😂
@@Buttergirla lol understood
I'm african american. I grew my hair for 12 years natural. I would go up to 6 months without washing it on purpose to grow it long. I called it the leave it the f alone method lolol. The natural sebum was amazing for my hair. I just did a texlax with mizani butter blend and now my hair is like yours (I had 4z hair). I grew it 12 years on purpose knowing I was going to texlax. I did it because I despise the single strand knots I was getting they were insanely bad no matter what I did.
So you just went around and didn’t give a damn that you STUNK? 😮💨
@@true4585 you can still refresh your hair without washing it.
@@Z-ef1rrrefresh doesn’t clean it, neither take away the smell. I am black and natural too and I never understand that no-washing your hair thing; but I have travelled enough to know that there are people who don’t care about how they smell.
@@marieperpetuemoncoeur2954 the smell from what? What smell does it produce? Genuine question. With a good diet and refreshing your hair every week I doubt that it would smell bad. I’m not advocating for poor scalp health but I never understood how people’s hair can smell bad.
@@Z-ef1rrit smells like scalp sweat 🤢…
Most natural type 4 women i see on RUclips with super long hair like waist and beyond wash every 3-4 weeks. Even the Chadian women in the chebe videos said they wash monthly or less.
Had to learn the hard way....😏
I started leaving my hair alone in twists, moisturize 1s a week, wash every 2 or 3months(in twists)🤭... then redo/detangle and retwist one by one after a week🤷♀️... I hope to have an easier life now on!
I wash once per month, wait, actually I go see a hair dresser once per month where she washes and treats it. So I go all month without my hair being washed, my hair loves it.
For me, not washing my hair makes my face break out. That scalp dirt ends up on my face and I get acne and then after that, acne scars.
Wow a habesha youtuber with 4c natural hair finally! Gorgeous hair!
I have wavy hair and I can go 3-4 weeks without washing my hair. I let the shower water hit my roots and then comb out my hair with water and a bit of oil to combat scalp buildup.
Tender scalp means your scalp is suffering. That's my tell tale sign that I have to wash my hair as well.
I have definitely gone 6 weeks to 8 weeks without washing. Like you I was able to get away with it, but it wasn't for the best. My hair tangles just by looking at it wrong, now imagine how it was after all that time, Christ...
I am lucky I guess, I have no scalp issues and I don't sweat that heavy on my scalp, except at the hairline... I wash once a month generally...
LMAO "just by looking at it wrong" ...mind of it's own!
Just two strand twist, then detangle with a good conditioner slowly. And do not comb, but finger detangle.
i wash my hair 2-3 times a week with water only (i have done since march) and my hair has never been healthier. it was pretty gross for a few weeks but i don’t think i’ll ever go back to my old hair routine!
I am doing the same to. Had to because my hair is to fragile to deal with. Had to wear it in protective hairstyle. For two months..,
Wow... I can't imagine not washing for even one month. But I guess I can forsee laziness with my 4b hair care routine when it gets long long. I mean bra strap length is long but doesn't 'feel' long. I also keep my hair in braids/twists (have been doing so for 8 months so far?). And yeah, it's no fun but I want long hair more than I want cute hairstyles anyway 🤷🏽♀️
I feel the same:) Healthy, sustainable, long hair rather than short term cute styles.
Apple cider vinegar makes my hair and scalp feel so clean.
Me too! It's a great cleanser plus it's AMAZING for detangling. I definitely swear by ACV
Been a subbie for a while, but got vids stopped popping up so I had to search for you. Your hair is flourishing! I just went almost 7 weeks without washing because I was so busy with school. It happens! :) I'm 4c too but BSL. I'm good just so long as I moisturize, like you.
BTW, you do a great job handling all these, Um, interesting comments. Ppl are... special.
Hi:) damn youtube algorithms! Thanks for searching for me:)
It's amazing what our hair can handle!
rinsing it with water might help remove the salt, as long as it's right after the workout and hasn't gotten a chance to dry
Hmmm.. never thought to do that. I'm gonna give it a try:)
@@TheHabby yeah my hair dried surprisingly fast when I just rinsed the roots
Wow! I can’t even go two weeks before my scalp is itching so bad, screaming to be shampooed. I’ve often envied those that can go a couple of weeks, but two months...lol?? That’s a record. Your hair is very beautiful!!
Lol yeah 2 months was too long, even if my hair was able to handle it. Thank you:)
I was thinking... a lot of places that grow out there hair don’t wash it often. They just moisturize and braid it up. After a certain amount of time they unbraid it them re moistures the hair then re braided it. Idk what they do for itching.
I’m finna see how long I can go lol
I've noticed that too and that's why I've started doing it myself. Yeah itching is tricky. I would definitely recommend washing if scalp issues like itching and tenderness develop. Scalp issues have to be addressed before the hair in my opinion. Let me know how long you go:)
@@TheHabby the longest I went was 5 weeks lol it would have been more but my cousin threw a big spider at me and he aimed for my head. I’m not surprised because when I was relaxed I could go a year without washing my hair unless I was getting another relaxer. Ever since I went natural I been obsessed with washing my hair.
I'm doing just that but I spray my hair and scalp with aloe vera juice and when I wash it I do the black rice water rinse with the essential oils of mint and tea tree plus Jamaican black castor oil! I never had a lot of dandruff but after doing the black rice water rinse I don't have dandruff!
You are so right ✅️ keep it up, beautiful queen 👸
Baddie🧡anyway appreciate the co-sign on the sparse washing idk how its not obvious and I’m new to the hair care journey but I guess if you don’t at least do the bare minimum as far as an “optimal” hair care routine then I can see how this would be an issue for you itchy scalp and other weird shxt lol but I have no problems washing once a month and my hair is super healthy now
Washed hair, curly hair, braided hair, long hair, short hair, doesn't matter - habby's the finest )
Did you see the video of those women from Chad who have super duper long hair and NEVER really wash it, just adding oils and cream to it and braiding it.
Facts when you don’t do to much that’s when is start growing
You can wash it in the braids and redo the braids over the next day or so.
I haven't washed my hair and it's been 2 months
How's it going?
@@TheHabby lol 😂
Hi! Please can you do an updated wash routine? Thank you.
My beautiful sister keep it up,,,
Hey Someone Told Me That Especially Curly Hair Not Washing It For A Least One Month It Really Helps Your Hair Grow Fast But Do You Detangle Your
Hair?.. Or Just Put In Leave In Conditioner Without Detangling It....
Merci beaucoup My sister tu es belllllllle
How did you grow your hair so long
Hello! New subscriber and I want to say that I love your channel. Merry belated Christmas

YOu're so beautiful!!! Are you Habesha?
I think if your hair is sewed up then you can go that long but if your hair is out then you should was it every 2 to 3 weeks
I should try that. Hmmm!!! 🤔
You are a very nice girl!)
I came for something gross, and leave with a desire to pull the curly hair of strangers to see how long it actually is.
cappapagoooo is right.
Hiiiii honye how are you

Locs would be gorgeous 😍
Why don't you make a short haircut?) It looks very stylish and sexy!)I think it would be great!)
No 🙄
@@altheadawn2531 Why no?
@@Flyingfast... Because it takes a long time to grow long beautiful hair. Why would you tell her to cut it off? 🤔
@@altheadawn2531secret hate. I’ll never trust someone who ask/tells someone to cut their long beautiful hair lol! If Ian ask, don’t tell me to cut my tresses!
@@sheiscassi3 Exactly 💯💯 You know it 💯
Such a cutie! You remind me of my daughter ❤️
