@@yawboampong4230 HOW ABOUT: Use Organic Castor Oil as a *HOT OIL TREATMENT* after washing and conditioning hair with NATURAL products. Wrap in foil then a large towel. *STEAM HAIR* by sitting under a dryer for 20 minutes OR wear all day and your body heat will steam it. When heated, PLASTIC LEACHES CHEMICAL ESTROGEN that's why I didn't say cover with a plastic bag] 🔹Rinse hair. Part into 4. Comb with WIDE TOOTHED COMB. Hair SHOULD feel softer. Braid in 4 plaits if going to Afro [OR do twists etc whatever decide] and AIR DRY or dry under Dome dryer. [Maybe make NATURAL GEL with Flaxseed Oil if you MUST use a gel after trying THIS 1st time without a gel. Recipes on RUclips] 🔹 *Take Hair vitamins. Drink 16oz water 3 tms/day, eat kale salad, sprinkle Ground Flaxseed on your food daily. Try Maternity Vitamins [add a Calcium bcs not 100% Cacium or Iron in them for some reason... Also HORSETAIL SILICA tablets [this is not a chemical silicone] which RETAINS LENGTH & should help SOFTEN HAIR.* 🔹Cornrow hair in protective styles at night with REAL Organic Aloe Vera Gel [OR Glycerine] and cover with a Silky Scarf. 🔹*Try the things above because they improve over-all HEALTH. Your skin AND HAIR TEXTURE should improve.* 😊 God Bless!
Ashley Marshall yesssss I completely agree!! Right to the point with direct advice related to each topic. Precise well spoken and clearly understood. Btw I enjoyed the humor as well.
So true. Wings and safevprotectuve styling got my hair as bra strap length in 2 years. It hasn't been thing long since I was a kid. Detangle, style once, then don't touch it for a while!!
I have mixed girls! You have saved me from ruining their hair! Im white but have tried soooo many things on their very dry hair! But your tips are a LIFE SAVER!! ❤
so true! I'm currently in hair school, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about different hair types since they are severely lacking at school. i wouldn't feel comfortable charging someone to do their hair if it was the literal first time I ever did it/if I were learning on their hair. I would have to at least tell them so they have the chance to run away XD if they want someone who is more experienced in that style or hair type.
Gurl same my husband bought me a satin bonnet and a bunch of moisturizers out of the blue one day and was like you have beautiful hair i want you to be able to take care of it😊❤😊❤....I was shook😂😂😂
My grandma STILL b e using the blumajic and everytime i tel her to get moisturizer she just says "i been doing your hair all these years i know what im doing"
If your guy has a problem with it, then dont date them. Your partner should support anything that benefits you in a healthy way. If he doesnt respect that, then he isnt worth it.
@pk pk WOOOOO!!!!!🤗. You said it. A real man is walking down the street. I do not date any more. Living to be HOLY and RIGHTEOUS. So many problems to have dealt with and vise versa because I am quite sure someone son wanted to give up dating after socializing with me be stuck in my ways. SELFISH until I learned to share and now I am not interested in dating because I like just being to myself and will socializing some away from home and when I make it in. No conversation. PEACE at my MIND all the time like that. Pray not to think of ah I want to talk to.... because ten times out of ten. I will say I should have left that along and stayed to myself. GOD is who I talk to and who watches over me. Thank GOD the MOST HIGH. It was a struggle for me but I am BLESSED to have kept on and keeping on PRAYING to The only wise GOD our FATHER. AMEN.
Brothers walk around with du-rags on their heads outside and inside. In the 60's and 70's they wore scarves to maintain their relaxed hair. In the 70's 80's and 90's they wore rollers, even outside, along with a scarf. They walked around with shower caps on, with Jerri Curls underneath. Ladies. Do you!
@pk pk You are quite welcome! And you are so right! They do what they want and date who they want. It's time to take a page out of their book and be just as care free. My boyfriend (now ex) told me I wouldn't look good with short hair. 2 days later I came out the bathroom with my back length 4C hair in a tiny afro 😂. He eventually said, you look nice. I said I know! 😂. It's a new day. 🙌🏾
Yep...I use cantu products but I heard quite a few people complaning that the shampoo dries out their hair.....so i decided to continue with my argon oil shampoo.... The rest of their products works well... The problem as well some of us use too much products in our hair at once and too much natural oils would dry your hair out... The lady video is very honest...find what works for you not all hair type is the same...

SkibopDaSequel ...QUEEN but no lol it’s that people with 4C hair that are naturally usually wash it once every week or once every 2 weeks and it’s a lot of detangling and fighting but less often so might as well wash your hair when showering
@@alexcastro7665 okay cool I have 4c too and am washing once every two weeks. but no matter how much i detangle in the process my ends always knot up 😩
This curly haired white lady REALLY appreciate this vid. At 57 yo, I am just now becoming friends with my curls and learning how to nurture them. Oil isn't a moisturizer, it's a sealant! Moisturize first! I've been putting oil on it to kill the frizz. The frizz makes me crazy. Moisturize first! Don't sit in just anybodies chair. I just discovered Deva Curl Cuts! I love this haircut. Needed a new chair! Wrap hair at night! Wow! It's SO frizzy in the morning! Don't keep deep conditioner on longer than 5 mins? I grocery bag then watch a show. Porosity test? I need to find that! Hair burns at 450! I just started using a flat iron. Hold my hair straight while working on the scalp reduces tangles!? Wow! Don't compare! I adore you! I've watched 4 times to make sure I got it all. Thank you for sharing!
She said don't leave deep conditioner on fir longer than 30 minutes. She went on to say that a 5 minute leave on conditioner is NOT a deep conditioner. It is a quick conditioner.
@Bitch Please I use a grocery bag when I put conditioner in and sometimes overnight. They changed the hair mayonnaise recipe or something--it hasn't been the same sense My hair use to literally feel like silk in the a.m I mean unbelievably good. It's been years now sense I've felt that feeling lol You have a better deep conditioner ?
Hey girl l like you, your attitude your aura, the way you present yourself , you are awesome, and natural , and I'm not listening to any of the negativity and this comments section! girl you do you and everything else will follow in place! Well done😏
I use blue magic on my hair (I don't put it on my scalp). It makes my hair so soft. Literally the best sealer for me. I do agree that it is sort of difficult to wash it off the hair though.
In most black homes we did cover our here at night because your mother wasn't going to do your hair everyday so you would cover your hair at night would most likely a Silk Stocking cuz that's when they wore Silk Stockings so we were our parents rather was way ahead of our time when they gave us a Silk Stocking to put on our heads yes we did use Blue Magic on our way here sometime they use castor oil and some of the other things I have no idea cuz I was a child I just wanted my hair done and get out so a lot of things was good for our here you have to look back and really know I'm coming for ahead of you because you're much younger than myself but yes we put every night a silk stocking cap on our heads and I had pretty long hair until I was told I was old enough to take care of my own hair
I’m 14 and I just started doing my natural hair. So I’ve been watching a lot of natural hair videos on what products to buy and all and some of them have been doing really well. But what I didn’t understand that every time my hair was dry or itchy I would put oil on it and then it would get dry or itchy again in like another hour or so, so I just put more oil in it and your video just popped on my recommendation page....Thank god because now I know moisturizer then oil to seal. I really don’t know what I’m doing l.I have no idea what I’m doing but I’m learning....so thank you for this video🙂
Nia Love, deep condition once a week, moisturize and seal with an oil, I prefer extra virgin coconut oil. Also put your hair in protective hairstyles( low manipulation) and moisturize and seal often. Once in a while like once in 3 months, use a clarifying shampoo to clarify your hair. Key points condition, moisturize and seal. Good luck.
I was about to start scanning for when the actual video was about to start and avoid the chatter but I literally jumped when the video just started into it. LOL Thanks for that!
I’m 16 year old white girl and I really want to adopt a girl/boy from Ethiopia or South Africa when I’m older. I have no experience or knowledge when it comes to black hair so this was very interesting and helpful. I really want to get everything right and I guess you can never start learning to early😊 Thank you🙏🏻
I really admire your kindness but I’d like to step in by saying that I’m a South African and we are not as poor in Africa as people think. Africa has poor and rich sections but so does every country. I go to a private school and a Porsche or any other high end car is an extremely common sight. 1 in 3 families own a high end vehicle at my school. I would suggest adopting someone from your own country because charity begins at home.
Actually, we need rich people to stop exploiting the system more than we need foreigners to adopt anyone. The life you live isn’t that different from ours. There’s a stigma around Africans and sometimes I feel belittled by people thinking we are a charity case. We aren’t. At least South Africa isn’t.
Not all black hair is the same. My younger sister is black with nautically straight hair. Tips for looking after your future son’s hair: 1. Curl pattern doesn’t matter find out the porus (low porosity, high porosity, medium/normal etc) 2. Find low maintenance protective hairstyles: I would recommend twists 3. Get the hair trimmed every 6 weeks 4. Use a hair cream ( I use Mane Curl hair cream that contains biotin) to seal the oil and water as moisture 5. Sprits the hair with warm water in a spray bottle first then moisturise the hair and scalp with oil (pure coconut, pure avocado, pure vitamin e, argon or pure actor oil will do), finally sealed Yh the hair cream 6. You should do a protein treatment every 4 weeks on your child’s hair 7. It doesn’t matter if people with straight hair use the hair products just make sure it is for the porous of your child’s hair
@@isaacshingange3733 I am Ethiopian but every country has it rich people and poor. You can't tell me there aren't ppl in S.Africa that aren't struggling with raising a child. You going yo a private school has nothing to do with your countries wealth. I get your point but that was irrelevant. If you are concerned about ppl belittling you, you should speak for the whole Africa because that's what ppl are biased about not a specific country. I went to a private school too. So does hundred thousands of Ethiopians but I can't conclude from one perspective either.
Petrolatum and mineral oil does not clog your pores because the molecular structure of it is too large to clog your pores. I’ve been natural for 8 years now and I just went back to using grease and my hair has never been more moisturized. As long as you use it as a sealant and use a sulfate shampoo, your hair will flourish. Yes we wore protective styles as kids but if it truly clogged our pores, greasing our scalps like we used to wouldn’t have let our hair grow period. I know the natural hair community says it’s bad but they are misinformed. My hair was always dry when I used natural oils like castor oil, olive oil, avocado oil bc the barrier wasn’t strong enough to keep my hair moisturized for longer than 2 days. I’m 4b with a little 4a in sections.
Ah, that makes sense, I got that information very early in my journey (I’ve been natural for 7 years) and just ran with it and never looked back! Haha! Products with those ingredients never worked well with my hair, but as I always say, everyone is different. What works for one person may not work for another. Thanks for watching!
iamtrinaful just replace the oils you use in the LCO method with grease and don’t apply more than once a week. You hair should stay moisturized that entire week maybe even longer and it prevents your ends from tangling.
Bre Alistic I use grease in my daughters hair I don’t believe the hype about how grease is bad.... the “market place” wants you to think grease is bad because grease may cost$ 3.00 but the natural oils cost 20.00 it’s all about marketing and black women fall for it every time
@@MariaLopez-hc2nm I went to one once. She had a different curl pattern than me. She cut my hair in a way that would work for her hair, not mine. It's still rough out there.
Sema That’s a fact, you have to look for people who have hair similar to yours or have proof of having worked with hair like yours and said proof is accessible to you to evaluate forget race if there’s a Jewish girl with long curly tresses like yours feel her out ya never know but do NOT let her work your hair before feeling her out first
Sleeping without your hair covered Is a no no no Me: lying on my bed at 12 am without my hair covered then gets up immediately to find something to cover my hair
I actually didn't have twists and stuff when I was younger. My dad probably didn't know how to do hair. My mom doesn't have curly hair. That's why I'm here
I HAVE TO SAY YOU HELPED ME A LOT WITH MY REAL HAIR. I’ve never wore twist and never wore a style as a child longer than a week. Also my mom never was a fan of the blue grease or any of those hair store greases.
I wish whoever did my hair had told me she doesn’t know how. To do my type of hair!!!! Coz she ruined it!!!!!!!!! - heat damage so bad starting all over!!!!!!!!!
Lydie N. I’m sorry honey the same exact thing just happened to me but I am trying to recover it instead of starting over. I have been natural 3 years I would be crushed if I had to start all over. I’m going to pray for your hair recovery and I wish you beautiful hair on your new journey.
I just started using grease again a week ago and my hair has not felt better! I have thick 3c/4a low porosity hair that hates just about every leave-in condition on the market. Not to mention I feel like my hair sheds more whenever I use conditioners. So I only use aloe Vera juice and olive oil to keep my hair moisturized, but after awhile it just wasn’t enough. And oddly enough I started to see all of these naturals talking about how they are going back to using blue manic hair grease. So I said why not, it’s only $2.50 for a 12oz jar. And when I tell you my hair feels like baby hair 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾😌 it’s as if I died and went to heaven lol. I can’t remember when the last time my hair was this soft. So yes grease is for sure a sealant, but that’s why they made shampoo to wash it out. But blue magic says that it’s a conditioning grease and they were not lying.
Yes indeed, Trinity! My mother always bought the Ultrasheen hair grease, until she got hip to "DAX" hair grease. The white, and ESPECIALLY the black Dax which smelled terrible! 😖😖 I hated going to school smelling like black Dax! We never used it, but I had friends who were stuck using Sulfur 8, which also smelled bad!😊
But why are our mothers still trying to fight us to put this in our hair. Everytime my hair is dry my mom and aunt are like you need geese. Like you do know there’s other products out now. They are so lost when it comes to hair. My mom was asking me for her friend if you’re supposedly wet the hair before curling it. And they always put so much products on their hair and weigh it down it be looking all heavy and greasy. And I wear wigs but if I’m at home with my fro out my aunt will say my hair is happy and needs a perm. Meanwhile she has no hair and looks a mess 🤦🏾♀️
I rub grease and water in my hands and put it on the front half of my hair and brush it in. Then put a scarf on. 30min to 1 hour later, my hair is laid down better then any gel or wax out there. ~type 4C
Bottom line, do whatever works for YOUR natural hair. I am working towards NEVER putting a perm in my hair again. I was to get it done in April, but the beauty shop was closed. What did I do? My husband colored it, I washed and conditioned it, and used a moisturizer and hair pomade mixed with several types of hair oils. I was amazed how my hair came out so straight at the roots and it curled as if I had just had it done. It is now thicker and more curly than when it was permed. Our NATURAL Hair is responsive to the Jheri Curl products. I would recommend using them as an alternative to using the Jheri curl perm.
I completely agree with number one. I had to stop comparing my hair and wanting the hair of other RUclipsrs. When I did that my hair did not thrive because I was doing everything that they were doing.When I started to leave my hair alone and listen to what it likes it thrived.
Let me tell you something:: this video was so refreshing from the other cheesy vids on RUclips...totally creative...you should definitely be an actress hopefully your major is drama If your in college... Get into acting if your not already and when you make it Big don’t forget I said it lol great job 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
@shakeemoore19 I couldn’t help read your comment in a Theodore of Alvin and the chipmunks voice, lol, that cracks me up coz I did that too. The best thing to do is wait for next hair trimming day and do it right. Have a professional do it.
Love this, everyone learns something everyday. Im 58 and I learn so much from you. My daughter had hair on hair from birth. Once she started doing her hair she cut that joker off. We were told to cut our hair only on a full moon. She didn’t and it hasn’t grown back yet. Thank you so much for educating the glam mamas. ( spell check makes me mad). Smart , pretty and # Be Blessed. You have it all.
LOVE this presentation! This is prob my favorite vid on natural hair care YET cuz A) You cut (ha-no pun intended 🤪) straight to the chase on ALL POINTS without using filler words & repeating yourself unecessarily B) It was SUPER informative C) It was lighthearted with just the right touch of humor. Plus you’re very pretty, not heavily made up & well spoken. YASSSSS!!! 😃😃
I really don’t care about hair anymore I’ve done everything right it gets to the shoulders then stop freezes gets back and that repeatedly irritates am done.
I'm in the exact same situation. Im considering dreading my hair cause nothing works. I moisturize, pre poo, shampoo, condition, LOC, rice water every now and again, trim every 3 months, low manipulation styles, and still no growth.
I have long hair but my opinion is that chances are that's the length your hair is destined to grow. Just look at the hair on any other part of your body, it grows to where it wants and then falls out. Your eyelashes and pubes will never grow long enough to cornrow. Yes, you may be able to improve conditions for hair growth, but your hair has a growth cycle that stops when it's ready and there's not much you can do about that. White people don't take half the care of their hair as we do and their hair grows just fine, that's because hair grows to where it grows and then it falls out and a new one takes its place.
I’m so guilty of not putting on a silk scarf. I have a satin pillowcase but i can feel the difference on my hair the next day 🙁 i keep forgetting what my porosity is ( i did like 3 test already) but great video as always!
I hear you! Sometimes you're just so tired you just pass right on out lol I'm glad you have that satin pillow case, it saves the day! lol Thanks for watching!
I'm old enough to say that I had my first perm when I was 7 and back then the only brand was French Perm and it was not sold retail. I was greased from my head to my neck and two women applied it. All grease had a petroleum base, there only hair moisturizers was lotion (body lotion) or water and we all had hair down our back. We didn't have the no manipulation styles, you got you hair combed every day. When you hear people talk about the blue grease, they are not lying. Shampoo had sulfates, there was no such thing as prepoo and you didn't hear about alopecia ever..... Oh yeah, we got our hair washed every 2 weeks
As a new white foster mom to a beautiful young lady of color (15)...our first child...this video was so helpful on my road to educating myself in the many ways to help her grow and care for her hair. She currently is recovering from some hair traumas in her previous placements and she is not comfortable with the length of her hair and so is not ready to wear it natural yet. I am curious about moisturizing her hair between protective styles. You mentioned not using an oil but rather a moisturizer first. I understand completely as it is the same with skincare- oils seal in moisture but they AREN'T moisture. I'm wondering if there is a particular moisturizer you would recommend before applying oil. Thanks again! I absolutely LOVE this video!
I’ve been natural for a very very long time and thought “I must have slow growing hair” BUT I realized I was natural but my hair wasn’t as healthy as it should’ve been. I wasn’t taking proper care of my hair. I was being very rough. Not moisturizing on a daily. Not finding the right products for hair. Just yesterday I learned about the porosity shit so I’m like wtf 😱 my hair is long it’s just not retaining any length, it’s dry all the time and I just need to get it together.!!
Woman have been preaching this for years. I tried to share knowledge that I learned for the past 6 years but it goes in one ear and out the other. And when I was seeing a professional to trim my hair it thrived because it was splitting and breaking.
I’m mixed ( Black, White, and Asian) So my hair has a really different texture that some hairstylists are not familiar with. I went to a white hairstylist & she destroyed my hair... She really could’ve told me she didn’t know what she was doing or that she wasn’t familiar with hair like mine. Feel like this type of story is too true for a lot of people 😔
The only time my mom (62 yrs) said her hair grew past her shoulders was when she had the jheri curl back in the day and after she was pregnant with me. She said nothing worked before that. We will follow your suggestions. Thanks for the video. I am 17 & I mostly wear braids. My mom & I wear our natural hair.
No one: Me: I love this video. I dont do half of what she says but my hair grows super fast. I might start covering it at night though and I will try shampooing in sections. I get ends trimmed every 2 months. I have grow season - where its always braided to the scalp (washed, conditioned, saturated in a pure vitamin e oil and organic coconut oil mixture- ratio 2:5) and covered with wig or Im doing twist outs (everynight) during the cold season (oct-march). During the other six months I do wash n go and get a silk wrap maybe every 6 weeks. I drink plenty of water and eat plenty of fruits, veggies, nuts, beans. (Aka stay away from the drive thru). About me: I have fine texture (super thin), medium porosity, dense hair. Also my hair is colored. My curl pattern (doesnt really matter) is 4A/4B. Also, I don't go broke on styling products. For wash n go season, I style with Eco Styler (sure do 🤣) but I rinse it out each day with just warm water (no shampoo) and only shampoo/condition 1x/week (due to my fine hair that breaks with shampooing). I love that she said not to over-manipulate. I braid my own hair (as loose as possible)....because I love my hair line having hair on it. 🤣.
Great video I've natural 15 yrs. I've been shaving my head 10 yrs so I'm starting over since I can't get a haircut due to the salon closing. Thanks for sharing
and finally I've come across a vid that I've actually liked...and your voice is so relaxing like that feeling you get when having a good scalp massage 😊
Her facial expressions 🤣🤣🤣 I almost didn’t watch the video because of how long it was but she’s very entertaining and made the time go by quick. Very informative too!
Me, the whitest girl you will ever see:....... RUclips: we think youll like this video Me: ok why not Edit: erm guys this is a joke no need to start arguments in the replies. Also, i know white people can have natural curl and frizz too but i just so happen to have uncurlably straight hair
Actually a lot of this advice is for ALL hair types/textures! Especially not sleeping on a pillowcase without a silk/satin cover. I have many white friends (especially with curly & wavy hair) who sleep with something on their pillow. Heat protectant is a must for everyone too when styling! And we all have varied porosity! Many of the Hair products on social media actually focus on this even if it’s not marketed this way! The new Monat, for one. For everything else-it’s great to be educated on all cultures textured, etc. Wonderful way to think :)
Natural since 2007 and I have done all 11 to myself but even worse? I have six daughters and I taught them the same until I embraced my natural hair. This video encapsulates all that I have learned. Just shared it with them. :) Thanks!
Anyone here in 2020 during quarantine?? Also how do I keep my hair healthy, when my mom does it and I'm not allowed to? Also how do I stop being so tender headed?
1st give out suggestions you want for your hair.I would suggest twists or braids since it’s a protective style. 2nd there’s no way you can stop being tender-headed since you’re mainly born with it.
It may sound weird but my scalp stopped being as sensitive when I stopped getting perms. I used to be squirming in that braiding chair every time. Ultimately be mindful of your tools and products. You’ll be in charge eventually!
You are right about that. I am 100%natural hair intill I start coloring my hair because I have gray hair on the front. So I decided to color now my hair is very very very dry. I can't get back 😫 😩 what ever I do or anything. I don't know what kind coloring hair it is but it surely dry out my hair.
I know this video is super long but !! The #1 mistake meant everything to me I recently cut my hair super shirt to start over and I am just so jealous of curls pretty natural. It reminded me that my hair is my hair ❤️
Thanks for your tips! I'm 70yrs old with almost waist length hair! (Natural) Dominicans wash my hair, rollers,& Dryer once a month! I Oil my Own scalp! However *I will try the moisturizer on My hair b4 the Oil* 😆And possibly get some Blue Magic 😎

Try Maternity Vitamins [add a Calcium bcs not 100% Cacium or Iron in them for some reason...

@@MichaelJacksonzGlove White people are very instrested in black hair but are scared of it.
My grandma STILL b e using the blumajic and everytime i tel her to get moisturizer she just says "i been doing your hair all these years i know what im doing"
Right, you can't tell Granny NOTHING! lollol But, hey, if it happens to be working, it's all good!
Lol😂
Betta leave big momma alone, she might pop ya with her brush!
A boars bristle brush is also good for our hair

If your guy has a problem with it, then dont date them. Your partner should support anything that benefits you in a healthy way. If he doesnt respect that, then he isnt worth it.
Jude Fenwick a woman who wants to keep herself healthy isnt worth it? Um okay
@pk pk WOOOOO!!!!!🤗. You said it. A real man is walking down the street. I do not date any more. Living to be HOLY and RIGHTEOUS. So many problems to have dealt with and vise versa because I am quite sure someone son wanted to give up dating after socializing with me be stuck in my ways. SELFISH until I learned to share and now I am not interested in dating because I like just being to myself and will socializing some away from home and when I make it in. No conversation. PEACE at my MIND all the time like that. Pray not to think of ah I want to talk to.... because ten times out of ten. I will say I should have left that along and stayed to myself. GOD is who I talk to and who watches over me. Thank GOD the MOST HIGH. It was a struggle for me but I am BLESSED to have kept on and keeping on PRAYING to The only wise GOD our FATHER. AMEN.
Brothers walk around with du-rags on their heads outside and inside. In the 60's and 70's they wore scarves to maintain their relaxed hair. In the 70's 80's and 90's they wore rollers, even outside, along with a scarf. They walked around with shower caps on, with Jerri Curls underneath. Ladies. Do you!
@@Matoaka365 I text a comment about the same things also.
@pk pk You are quite welcome! And you are so right! They do what they want and date who they want. It's time to take a page out of their book and be just as care free. My boyfriend (now ex) told me I wouldn't look good with short hair. 2 days later I came out the bathroom with my back length 4C hair in a tiny afro 😂. He eventually said, you look nice. I said I know! 😂. It's a new day. 🙌🏾

The french background song is killing me 😂😂😂😂”If I cheat on him during the day, I’m faithful at night” wtff
Riiight?!? Serves me right for not looking up the lyrics beforehand! 😂😂😂
That song was driving me crazy!
@@GEMNaturals bwahaha. It was a good video, though!
Yes, it was.
I actually laughed at the song (not knowing what the lyrics translated to 😱)
I think certain things work for certain people. You just have to figure out what works for 'you'.
Agreed!
Yep...I use cantu products but I heard quite a few people complaning that the shampoo dries out their hair.....so i decided to continue with my argon oil shampoo.... The rest of their products works well...
The problem as well some of us use too much products in our hair at once and too much natural oils would dry your hair out...
The lady video is very honest...find what works for you not all hair type is the same...
So true China,so true
Def my hair loves grease

I just learned about shampooing in sections! And combing it out before shampooing! WHAT A DIFFERENCE!😄 So much easier to comb and way less breakage!
Yasmin Mitchell this is what gets me😭😭i got thick 4c hair and it is tiresome trying shampoo in sections 😭😩

are ya'll washing your hair in the shower? I was using the kitchen sink lol
SkibopDaSequel ...QUEEN but no lol it’s that people with 4C hair that are naturally usually wash it once every week or once every 2 weeks and it’s a lot of detangling and fighting but less often so might as well wash your hair when showering

@Bitch Please I use a grocery bag when I put conditioner in and sometimes overnight. They changed the hair mayonnaise recipe or something--it hasn't been the same sense

I use blue magic on my hair (I don't put it on my scalp). It makes my hair so soft. Literally the best sealer for me. I do agree that it is sort of difficult to wash it off the hair though.
Use a clarifying shampoo perhaps once a month. It will strip away everything but make sure to deep condition after!
In most black homes we did cover our here at night because your mother wasn't going to do your hair everyday so you would cover your hair at night would most likely a Silk Stocking cuz that's when they wore Silk Stockings so we were our parents rather was way ahead of our time when they gave us a Silk Stocking to put on our heads yes we did use Blue Magic on our way here sometime they use castor oil and some of the other things I have no idea cuz I was a child I just wanted my hair done and get out so a lot of things was good for our here you have to look back and really know I'm coming for ahead of you because you're much younger than myself but yes we put every night a silk stocking cap on our heads and I had pretty long hair until I was told I was old enough to take care of my own hair
Put it on hour scalp too it helps mine
Sulfate shampoo helps
Same but the one with coconut oil.
I’m 14 and I just started doing my natural hair. So I’ve been watching a lot of natural hair videos on what products to buy and all and some of them have been doing really well. But what I didn’t understand that every time my hair was dry or itchy I would put oil on it and then it would get dry or itchy again in like another hour or so, so I just put more oil in it and your video just popped on my recommendation page....Thank god because now I know moisturizer then oil to seal. I really don’t know what I’m doing l.I have no idea what I’m doing but I’m learning....so thank you for this video🙂
Thank YOU for watching! I’m just happy to hear you found some value. Best of luck on your journey! ♥️
Nia Love so wise of u to research. U will be great at it! I’m proud of u! I’m veteran in cosmetology field. 🥰
Nia Love, deep condition once a week, moisturize and seal with an oil, I prefer extra virgin coconut oil. Also put your hair in protective hairstyles( low manipulation) and moisturize and seal often. Once in a while like once in 3 months, use a clarifying shampoo to clarify your hair.
Key points condition, moisturize and seal. Good luck.
I was about to start scanning for when the actual video was about to start and avoid the chatter but I literally jumped when the video just started into it. LOL Thanks for that!
Where's your pfp from?
I’m 16 year old white girl and I really want to adopt a girl/boy from Ethiopia or South Africa when I’m older.
I have no experience or knowledge when it comes to black hair so this was very interesting and helpful. I really want to get everything right and I guess you can never start learning to early😊
Thank you🙏🏻
I really admire your kindness but I’d like to step in by saying that I’m a South African and we are not as poor in Africa as people think. Africa has poor and rich sections but so does every country. I go to a private school and a Porsche or any other high end car is an extremely common sight. 1 in 3 families own a high end vehicle at my school. I would suggest adopting someone from your own country because charity begins at home.
Actually, we need rich people to stop exploiting the system more than we need foreigners to adopt anyone. The life you live isn’t that different from ours. There’s a stigma around Africans and sometimes I feel belittled by people thinking we are a charity case. We aren’t. At least South Africa isn’t.
Not all black hair is the same. My younger sister is black with nautically straight hair. Tips for looking after your future son’s hair:
1. Curl pattern doesn’t matter find out the porus (low porosity, high porosity, medium/normal etc)
2. Find low maintenance protective hairstyles: I would recommend twists
3. Get the hair trimmed every 6 weeks
4. Use a hair cream ( I use Mane Curl hair cream that contains biotin) to seal the oil and water as moisture
5. Sprits the hair with warm water in a spray bottle first then moisturise the hair and scalp with oil (pure coconut, pure avocado, pure vitamin e, argon or pure actor oil will do), finally sealed Yh the hair cream
6. You should do a protein treatment every 4 weeks on your child’s hair
7. It doesn’t matter if people with straight hair use the hair products just make sure it is for the porous of your child’s hair
Also, let the hair air dry never use heat, style when dry but make sure it’s moisturised before styling
@@isaacshingange3733 I am Ethiopian but every country has it rich people and poor. You can't tell me there aren't ppl in S.Africa that aren't struggling with raising a child. You going yo a private school has nothing to do with your countries wealth. I get your point but that was irrelevant. If you are concerned about ppl belittling you, you should speak for the whole Africa because that's what ppl are biased about not a specific country. I went to a private school too. So does hundred thousands of Ethiopians but I can't conclude from one perspective either.
Your face is adorable, your eyes are stunning, and voice is beyond relaxing. Easy Sub, lmbo!!!

One of the realist natural videos I’ve ever seen. Straight to the point not all that extra talking I love it. Thanks
Petrolatum and mineral oil does not clog your pores because the molecular structure of it is too large to clog your pores. I’ve been natural for 8 years now and I just went back to using grease and my hair has never been more moisturized. As long as you use it as a sealant and use a sulfate shampoo, your hair will flourish. Yes we wore protective styles as kids but if it truly clogged our pores, greasing our scalps like we used to wouldn’t have let our hair grow period. I know the natural hair community says it’s bad but they are misinformed. My hair was always dry when I used natural oils like castor oil, olive oil, avocado oil bc the barrier wasn’t strong enough to keep my hair moisturized for longer than 2 days. I’m 4b with a little 4a in sections.
Ah, that makes sense, I got that information very early in my journey (I’ve been natural for 7 years) and just ran with it and never looked back! Haha! Products with those ingredients never worked well with my hair, but as I always say, everyone is different. What works for one person may not work for another. Thanks for watching!
GEM Naturals I truly enjoy your videos and I appreciate your response ❤️
I want to go back to using grease cuz my hair don't really do well with oils either.
iamtrinaful just replace the oils you use in the LCO method with grease and don’t apply more than once a week. You hair should stay moisturized that entire week maybe even longer and it prevents your ends from tangling.
Bre Alistic I use grease in my daughters hair I don’t believe the hype about how grease is bad.... the “market place” wants you to think grease is bad because grease may cost$ 3.00 but the natural oils cost 20.00 it’s all about marketing and black women fall for it every time
I have middle eastern curly hair and I wish more hairdressers would say I dont understand your hair, I will mess it up.

If you’re just laying on your bed/couch should you have it covered?
Thing is my parents won’t buy me one
Their like 2-5 dollars lol
Literally me right now while reading this comment at the exact time it pops up in the video 🤦🏾♀️ oops
I'm just either lazy or forget to put it on before my head hits the pillowcase. I need to remind myself to buy me a satin case too
The RUclips algorithm literally forced this video down my throat and tbh I’m not mad it
Either am I Sandy! We been away from our beauticians for over 2 months. 😬😄
Impulsively cuts my hair
One minute after: looks how to grow my hair longer
Me too! Don't feel bad lol.
I just did this and I regret it so much lmao
Me, too! Cut my hair today and now I am looking for a way to make it longer😭😂
Me too 😂😂😂😂
i did that three years ago, best decision ever!! your hair is going to grow so much healthier believe me :)
I actually didn't have twists and stuff when I was younger. My dad probably didn't know how to do hair. My mom doesn't have curly hair. That's why I'm here
Same here girl
I HAVE TO SAY YOU HELPED ME A LOT WITH MY REAL HAIR. I’ve never wore twist and never wore a style as a child longer than a week. Also my mom never was a fan of the blue grease or any of those hair store greases.
I’m so happy to hear this!! 😊
I wish whoever did my hair had told me she doesn’t know how. To do my type of hair!!!! Coz she ruined it!!!!!!!!! - heat damage so bad starting all over!!!!!!!!!
Oh no!! I’m so sorry you experienced that! 😓
SAME!!!!!! But we gon come back even stronger sis!! It's called a journey for a reason!! 🥰🥰
Happened to me and a friend once. So frustrating. I was so mad
😭
Lydie N. I’m sorry honey the same exact thing just happened to me but I am trying to recover it instead of starting over. I have been natural 3 years I would be crushed if I had to start all over. I’m going to pray for your hair recovery and I wish you beautiful hair on your new journey.
I just started using grease again a week ago and my hair has not felt better! I have thick 3c/4a low porosity hair that hates just about every leave-in condition on the market. Not to mention I feel like my hair sheds more whenever I use conditioners. So I only use aloe Vera juice and olive oil to keep my hair moisturized, but after awhile it just wasn’t enough. And oddly enough I started to see all of these naturals talking about how they are going back to using blue manic hair grease. So I said why not, it’s only $2.50 for a 12oz jar. And when I tell you my hair feels like baby hair 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾😌 it’s as if I died and went to heaven lol. I can’t remember when the last time my hair was this soft. So yes grease is for sure a sealant, but that’s why they made shampoo to wash it out. But blue magic says that it’s a conditioning grease and they were not lying.
Happy to hear you found something that works! Thanks for sharing this! 😊😘
I have to say it, even if it isn't relevant, she's really really beautiful
Thank you!! ☺️
Babe compliments are always relevant... I splash 3 to 4 in a conversation I have with all ladies I interact with. 🙈
Yeah. Now if she would just shut her pie hole she would be perfect.
I was about to go to sleep with my hair loose until she said that😔😂

At 40+ I have no discipline but I have started. I buy bonnet after bonnet and they die on a rack but I have begun to chage.
I just bought a satin pillow case. Life saver. I can never remember to wrap my hair
Lol the “blue grease” 🤣
Yes indeed, Trinity! My mother always bought the Ultrasheen hair grease, until she got hip to "DAX" hair grease. The white, and ESPECIALLY the black Dax which smelled terrible! 😖😖 I hated going to school smelling like black Dax! We never used it, but I had friends who were stuck using Sulfur 8, which also smelled bad!😊
@@coppereve0706 Omg! I forgot about DAX! My mom used the green and the white lol. Trying to keep them edges laid smh lol!!
Trinity Mac I instantly thought about blue magic
But why are our mothers still trying to fight us to put this in our hair. Everytime my hair is dry my mom and aunt are like you need geese. Like you do know there’s other products out now. They are so lost when it comes to hair. My mom was asking me for her friend if you’re supposedly wet the hair before curling it. And they always put so much products on their hair and weigh it down it be looking all heavy and greasy. And I wear wigs but if I’m at home with my fro out my aunt will say my hair is happy and needs a perm. Meanwhile she has no hair and looks a mess 🤦🏾♀️
@Vanessa Youance I'm returning to my hair grease roots as well and just today began to incorporate hair grease into my regimen.
I rub grease and water in my hands and put it on the front half of my hair and brush it in. Then put a scarf on. 30min to 1 hour later, my hair is laid down better then any gel or wax out there.
~type 4C
I must try!
@@antiqua2001 yes always more water than grease. You don't need more than a dime size of grease. This is best on the front and/or back of your hair.
Your video was the best hair video I’ve ever watched. No long drawn out video blogs, straight to the point
Bottom line, do whatever works for YOUR natural hair. I am working towards NEVER putting a perm in my hair again. I was to get it done in April, but the beauty shop was closed. What did I do? My husband colored it, I washed and conditioned it, and used a moisturizer and hair pomade mixed with several types of hair oils.
I was amazed how my hair came out so straight at the roots and it curled as if I had just had it done. It is now thicker and more curly than when it was permed. Our NATURAL Hair is responsive to the Jheri Curl products. I would recommend using them as an alternative to using the Jheri curl perm.
I completely agree with number one. I had to stop comparing my hair and wanting the hair of other RUclipsrs. When I did that my hair did not thrive because I was doing everything that they were doing.When I started to leave my hair alone and listen to what it likes it thrived.
Q Koop
Exactly!!!!
Let me tell you something:: this video was so refreshing from the other cheesy vids on RUclips...totally creative...you should definitely be an actress hopefully your major is drama If your in college...
Get into acting if your not already and when you make it Big don’t forget I said it lol great job 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Also she is really pretty
Everything was great until she said “use the proper scissors” lmfao those are the exact scissors I used, paper cutting scissors 🤦🏾♀️
Whoops! 🤣
Thanks for watching!
I thought they were kitchen scissors and she said "using improper scissors" to cut your hair.
I did that to my hair. I want to know what do you do when you have done that?
@shakeemoore19 I couldn’t help read your comment in a Theodore of Alvin and the chipmunks voice, lol, that cracks me up coz I did that too. The best thing to do is wait for next hair trimming day and do it right. Have a professional do it.
Those are kitchen scissors lol

You are so awesome, thank you!
Love this, everyone learns something everyday. Im 58 and I learn so much from you. My daughter had hair on hair from birth. Once she started doing her hair she cut that joker off. We were told to cut our hair only on a full moon. She didn’t and it hasn’t grown back yet. Thank you so much for educating the glam mamas. ( spell check makes me mad). Smart , pretty and # Be Blessed. You have it all.
omg, this is true, my mom taught me that, still this day, cut my hair on full moon🌚
I don’t know why that full moon thing works but it Does
I LOVE the way she keeps saying our hair!!!!! She understands 😭❤️❤️❤️

This is prob my favorite vid on natural hair care YET cuz A) You cut (ha-no pun intended 🤪) straight to the chase on ALL POINTS without using filler words & repeating yourself unecessarily B) It was SUPER informative C) It was lighthearted with just the right touch of humor. Plus you’re very pretty, not heavily made up & well spoken. YASSSSS!!! 😃😃
Thank you Chaundra!! 😊🤗
I really don’t care about hair anymore I’ve done everything right it gets to the shoulders then stop freezes gets back and that repeatedly irritates am done.
Find a good hair growing stylist sis
Lifestyle changes u need ..then think positive
I'm in the exact same situation. Im considering dreading my hair cause nothing works. I moisturize, pre poo, shampoo, condition, LOC, rice water every now and again, trim every 3 months, low manipulation styles, and still no growth.
Mine wldnt grow to a certain length too.. until i jus left it alone
I have long hair but my opinion is that chances are that's the length your hair is destined to grow. Just look at the hair on any other part of your body, it grows to where it wants and then falls out. Your eyelashes and pubes will never grow long enough to cornrow. Yes, you may be able to improve conditions for hair growth, but your hair has a growth cycle that stops when it's ready and there's not much you can do about that. White people don't take half the care of their hair as we do and their hair grows just fine, that's because hair grows to where it grows and then it falls out and a new one takes its place.
I’m so guilty of not putting on a silk scarf. I have a satin pillowcase but i can feel the difference on my hair the next day 🙁 i keep forgetting what my porosity is ( i did like 3 test already) but great video as always!
I hear you! Sometimes you're just so tired you just pass right on out lol I'm glad you have that satin pillow case, it saves the day! lol Thanks for watching!
Me 2🙋. I try though🤦....
I never could sleep with a scarf. My hat is off to those who can
Amen on the don’t sit in anybody’s chair. I love her!!!
I'm old enough to say that I had my first perm when I was 7 and back then the only brand was French Perm and it was not sold retail. I was greased from my head to my neck and two women applied it. All grease had a petroleum base, there only hair moisturizers was lotion (body lotion) or water and we all had hair down our back. We didn't have the no manipulation styles, you got you hair combed every day.
When you hear people talk about the blue grease, they are not lying. Shampoo had sulfates, there was no such thing as prepoo and you didn't hear about alopecia ever.....
Oh yeah, we got our hair washed every 2 weeks
As a new white foster mom to a beautiful young lady of color (15)...our first child...this video was so helpful on my road to educating myself in the many ways to help her grow and care for her hair. She currently is recovering from some hair traumas in her previous placements and she is not comfortable with the length of her hair and so is not ready to wear it natural yet. I am curious about moisturizing her hair between protective styles. You mentioned not using an oil but rather a moisturizer first. I understand completely as it is the same with skincare- oils seal in moisture but they AREN'T moisture. I'm wondering if there is a particular moisturizer you would recommend before applying oil.
Thanks again! I absolutely LOVE this video!
She has a video on her favorite Moisturizer
She’s a life saver y’all. She deserves to be that pretty. Thank you sm hunnnyy❤️❤️❤️
One of, if not the, best natural hair videos I've seen so far...Direct, Funny, and Informative...You rock!!

OMG! When u posted that pic @ 3:05, u brought back memories of my third/fourth grade class picture days. My mom styled my hair that same way
I love how she went straight to me point. And well explained with some humour
Ooh she's so purty! No make up and still glowing like a gem :). Kinda my main resson for subscribing :)
Lady, you have a beautiful face. And your expressions say everything.
This is the best hair video I ever seen on RUclips 👍🏽
I’ve been natural for a very very long time and thought “I must have slow growing hair” BUT I realized I was natural but my hair wasn’t as healthy as it should’ve been. I wasn’t taking proper care of my hair. I was being very rough. Not moisturizing on a daily. Not finding the right products for hair. Just yesterday I learned about the porosity shit so I’m like wtf 😱 my hair is long it’s just not retaining any length, it’s dry all the time and I just need to get it together.!!
Same. How do I know porosity. My hair is too dry
This is why this sister's sharing her truth is so empowering.
Woman have been preaching this for years. I tried to share knowledge that I learned for the past 6 years but it goes in one ear and out the other. And when I was seeing a professional to trim my hair it thrived because it was splitting and breaking.
I’m mixed ( Black, White, and Asian) So my hair has a really different texture that some hairstylists are not familiar with. I went to a white hairstylist & she destroyed my hair... She really could’ve told me she didn’t know what she was doing or that she wasn’t familiar with hair like mine. Feel like this type of story is too true for a lot of people 😔
The only time my mom (62 yrs) said her hair grew past her shoulders was when she had the jheri curl back in the day and after she was pregnant with me. She said nothing worked before that. We will follow your suggestions. Thanks for the video. I am 17 & I mostly wear braids. My mom & I wear our natural hair.
She made me smile throughout the video
No one:
Me: I love this video. I dont do half of what she says but my hair grows super fast. I might start covering it at night though and I will try shampooing in sections. I get ends trimmed every 2 months. I have grow season - where its always braided to the scalp (washed, conditioned, saturated in a pure vitamin e oil and organic coconut oil mixture- ratio 2:5) and covered with wig or Im doing twist outs (everynight) during the cold season (oct-march). During the other six months I do wash n go and get a silk wrap maybe every 6 weeks. I drink plenty of water and eat plenty of fruits, veggies, nuts, beans. (Aka stay away from the drive thru). About me: I have fine texture (super thin), medium porosity, dense hair. Also my hair is colored. My curl pattern (doesnt really matter) is 4A/4B. Also, I don't go broke on styling products. For wash n go season, I style with Eco Styler (sure do 🤣) but I rinse it out each day with just warm water (no shampoo) and only shampoo/condition 1x/week (due to my fine hair that breaks with shampooing). I love that she said not to over-manipulate. I braid my own hair (as loose as possible)....because I love my hair line having hair on it. 🤣.
I can listen to her all day! Engaging content and voice + beautiful! 😍
Great video I've natural 15 yrs. I've been shaving my head 10 yrs so I'm starting over since I can't get a haircut due to the salon closing. Thanks for sharing

MOISTURE .PEOPLE
Best honest hair video ever. Love it. My hair is my hair....
Love the fact that u went right into dos and don'ts , thanks for the tips!!! 🥰
This is the 1st time I’ve seen one of your videos. Cute delivery. Love the little humor you mixed in. 😂😂 Keep up the good work young lady. 😀👍♥️
and finally I've come across a vid that I've actually liked...and your voice is so relaxing like that feeling you get when having a good scalp massage 😊
Her facial expressions 🤣🤣🤣 I almost didn’t watch the video because of how long it was but she’s very entertaining and made the time go by quick. Very informative too!
Me, the whitest girl you will ever see:.......
RUclips: we think youll like this video
Me: ok why not
Edit: erm guys this is a joke no need to start arguments in the replies. Also, i know white people can have natural curl and frizz too but i just so happen to have uncurlably straight hair
Lmaoo
😂😂 You might be bout to meet a few black girls who are natural & you can share this video with them!!
Actually a lot of this advice is for ALL hair types/textures! Especially not sleeping on a pillowcase without a silk/satin cover. I have many white friends (especially with curly & wavy hair) who sleep with something on their pillow. Heat protectant is a must for everyone too when styling! And we all have varied porosity! Many of the Hair products on social media actually focus on this even if it’s not marketed this way! The new Monat, for one.
For everything else-it’s great to be educated on all cultures textured, etc. Wonderful way to think :)
@@brhill8958 yeah i love learning about new things even though most of this is not relevant to me since i have short straight hair and don't use heat
Purple Flame 😂😂😂💀💀💀
Natural since 2007 and I have done all 11 to myself but even worse? I have six daughters and I taught them the same until I embraced my natural hair. This video encapsulates all that I have learned. Just shared it with them. :) Thanks!
Thank YOU! 🥰
My boyfriend always reminds me to cover my hair
Girl, marry him! 😂😂😂 thanks for watching! ♥️
GEM Naturals girl we workin on it! And Gahhh I’m living for your reply and that you replied and ahhh!! 😍😍😍🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ha ha ha 😂. Good guy..
He’s keeper I guess
Yup my boyfriend wakes me up in the middle of the night to put my scarf back on !!!! I get irritated like let me sleep! But it’s appreciated!!
Vitamin E is good for the skin, scalp and Hair.
Indeed it is! Thanks for watching! ☺️
Thanks for being straaate to the point, good background music and not begging for subs!🙏🙏😘
Anyone here in 2020 during quarantine?? Also how do I keep my hair healthy, when my mom does it and I'm not allowed to? Also how do I stop being so tender headed?
1st give out suggestions you want for your hair.I would suggest twists or braids since it’s a protective style. 2nd there’s no way you can stop being tender-headed since you’re mainly born with it.
It may sound weird but my scalp stopped being as sensitive when I stopped getting perms. I used to be squirming in that braiding chair every time. Ultimately be mindful of your tools and products. You’ll be in charge eventually!
Right! Healthy hair is important and therefore it will grow! ❤
I have been natural most of my life- and your advice is spot on! And this video is delightful! Thank you!!
No one mentioned the music tho
Who is it?
Thought it sounded pretty cool
Mais c'est français. It's weird tho.
@@callmecoconut70 What is it called?
@@zackzavage2062 YEASSS What song is it, Shazam can't pick it up.
You are right about that. I am 100%natural hair intill I start coloring my hair because I have gray hair on the front. So I decided to color now my hair is very very very dry. I can't get back 😫 😩 what ever I do or anything. I don't know what kind coloring hair it is but it surely dry out my hair.
I know this video is super long but !! The #1 mistake meant everything to me I recently cut my hair super shirt to start over and I am just so jealous of curls pretty natural.
It reminded me that my hair is my hair ❤️
OMG, I'm 33 Half black (white mother) so I never learned how to style my hair. I've gone through all these mistakes......
Thanks for your tips! I'm 70yrs old with almost waist length hair! (Natural) Dominicans wash my hair, rollers,& Dryer once a month! I Oil my Own scalp! However *I will try the moisturizer on My hair b4 the Oil* 😆And possibly get some Blue Magic 😎
