I think everyone needs to realise that EVERYONES HAIR is DIFFERENT even if it "looks" the same. Every one of us has hair, skin and bodies that is unique to us. Our hair, skin and bodies are made of cells containing our own special DNA. Hence, it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to copy another's exact routine and expect the results to be the same. Save yourself the money, headache and frustration in trying to look like someone else. It's ok to learn from another's advise, tips and routines. But ultimately learn your OWN hair, skin & bodies to create an uniquely YOU!
Facts some folks need to realize as you said it’s about DNA Cardi is mix, some of us who are black peoples has different DNAs which helps our hair to grow faster and has different curls. Look at folks that has no other DNA race when their hair gets wet their curls pop and when our hair like 4C hair gets wet and conditioner in it our curls doesn’t pop as some would call it coils. That’s why we shouldn’t use curly hair people methods their products doesn’t work for our hair.
@@sunshineislandgirl4560 this isn’t really the best way to go about our hair. As a natural hair specialist, the size of your curls don’t really matter. It’s your density,porosity, and fabric. Saying a hairstyle can’t work for 4c hair is like telling your dentist you’re a Gemini
But at the same time you can still experiment and find out what works best for your own hair. That's how you learn, you may have to get ideas from what other people have tried first.
My daughter got lice from someone in her kindergarten class. I used mayo as a mask. I combed her hair in teeny tiny sections with the smallest tooth comb. Watching them come out was gross but it worked. After combing through the mayo thoroughly I put more of the mask on let it sit and watched them all come out during her shampoo. I did this twice, because we lived with an older woman that insist not to use a chemical wash to get rid of them. I did it for two weeks and let me tell you... Her hair was so shiny and moisturized i just started doing it regularly my daughter's hair is super long. Sorry about the gross story, but i would not have found out about mayo if she'd have never got lice.
Honestly I admire persons who are consistent and mix their own products. They really do stick to it. I just don’t have the patience. Its just easier to buy products. Plus my hair is really thick. Imagine having to do everything in sections plus mixing your own products?

As someone with long thick hair, who does make her own stuff and sections wayyyy smaller than most because of it. I do know it takes TIME 😂 can't be lazy with it and really have to commit. So if you're not going to put the time in then yea you'll struggle. I was in and out of the bathroom for 4 hours on Saturday but me and my fro are better for it 😪
I‘m consistent with mixing my avocado protein mask. 🙋🏾♀️ I was SHOOKETH at how much my hair was shining and at how soft it was. My parents were suspicious asf, but once they saw my hair they had to give me my props. I’ve been doing it consistently once a month since March or April. I take a picture everytime and watch how my hair was getting bigger and bigger after time. My hair maintains the shine now and contains a healthy amount of protein. I would say I’m kind of a newbie to natural hair since I cut it last year. Its not as time consuming as it seems to mix it. 🙈 *Also, it’s really easy to wash it out for me. Maybe it’s the difference of ingredients.
She keeps her hair braided under a weave 99 percent of the time. Her weaves are installed properly so they dont break off her hair. I did this years ago. Once i started wearing my long natural hair i had no idea how to actually take care of it on a day to day and broke it off in no time.
@@monicacreator3168 yes. I wear simple styles. It's a little past bra strap length. I usually wash and deep condition once a week. And either blow it out or twist and brush it out. Sometimes i actually flat iron it.
I used to constantly wear weaves and essentially had the same experience. Took me years to figure out what works for my hair and I make hair care products for a living 🥴
I read some comments and still think it's funny people talk about products making there grow faster cause its biologically impossible to apply something to your hair and have it grow faster. The speed our hair grows at is limited by our genetics. There are products that help prevent breakage which can make the hair appear to grow faster but I doesnt actually grow faster
So, the food and medicine that you consume is a biological factor? I ask because certain medications effect your hair growth and can even make you go bald. When you are deficient in certain minerals, you suffer from hair loss. When you consume to much of something that contain metals you suffer from hair loss. So, how can the opposite not occur.
Thank u. Not only speed but the length it can get to. I keep telling people if ur hairs anogen stage in combination with the speed of growth isn't condusive to certain length the hair will never get there. Two persons can have 5 years of growth before the hair dies and one will have over 30 inches while another maybe 15. But as I also always say they don't want to hair that all they need to do is retain the length to see the growth they can have ... Not do many want to hair that the less mix genes u have in the body that defines the anogen levels is the shorter the growth period. And many feel that oh if u black then it means u not mix not realising many of us are. Even if not on the surface of we have 4c hair.. it's the code feel within.
@@dawndesu6863 try to understand. The genetics determine what length u can get to and growth rate, and hair type etc. However what u describe are just a few of many internal and external factors that hinders the growth and/retention of the hair. Many blacks will never have say 30 inches of hair because the less mix u are the shorter ur growth period is to as low as two years for some. Many who can have more than 20 inches usually have longer growth cycles with and without faster hair growth.
Have you tried minoxidil? It keeps hair fall to a minimum. A hair will continue to grow in length as long as it doesn't fall so less hair fall = longer hair. I'm no expert but i think that's how it works.
@@dawndesu6863 What you're saying is actually true. All of that also affects how your hair grows. Hair grows from within. So what you eat, medications, drink, drugs and genetics plays a role in hair growth. What you put on your hair after it grows from the scalp doesn't play any role in your hair growth. It may help seal in moisture or help prevent breakage, protect from outside elements, etc. But it plays no part in how your hair will grow from your scalp.
1:53 I think what she meant was the protective styling. CardioB is always wearing wigs so her natural hair is not always being manipulated or damaged by the sun. It's tucked away somewhere and just left to grow while using her products and whatever.....
This part! Cardi doesn't over manipulate her hair anymore (due to her using wigs as a protective style) which is the real key. I wear knotless box braids 80% of the time, and I've seen significant growth in the span of 9 months. Before, I was absolutely deep conditioning my hair, but I was over manipulating it to high heaven for years. Once I stopped, growth.
One year I grew my nails and maintained them at 2 inches. When they’re your own nails (or grow them out and maintain them with acrylic) it’s much different than adding nails that aren’t yours. It’s very easy to do every day tasks when they grow with you. I remember cutting them and attempting to get fake ones a few months later and I couldn’t function without removing them a few hours later.
I was thinking the same thing!! NO!! Eat the avocados!!! Those are expensive and aren’t going to do anything as a topical on what’s an already dead protein!!
Agreed! Consuming it is much better honestly. I buy all my products already made up with those ingredients in it already and my hair is healthy and huge.
Growing up in Puerto Rico I have many memories of my mother doing the avocado and egg mask on our hair. There were always many traditional/folk remedies. And yes, I was told that my curly hair was "bad". My younger sister is in the 4 types and she got to hear the worst of it. My hair is so damaged now from all the different things we'd try 😒

I agree. I wouldn't really Call it "cardio B mask" because we used it back in the day when we were like 12yrs old. But of course when a celebrity do something, then the ppl make it seem as if the celebrity came up with it. It's a very old tradition that apparently some ppl didn't know anything about.
@@PixelPaperDesigns putting Cardi B in the title gets the clicks tho, I don’t think she’s trying to deny that people did it before her. She also copied Cardi’s recipe
That mask as always existed, Cardi B just learned what we use in the Caribbean. Nothing new. One thing I would not add is egg every time cos that will backfire if you are low porosity. Nor jbco it s sealing and viscous and defeating the purpose at this stage... If their grandma tell them to make the recipe to revive their hair they won't do it. But when Cardi b makes it then she get praise for it. 😂 After using a egg treatment use lemon juice in water. Or acv water rinse to remove that egg scent and close your cuticles
Her parents are Caribbean, but Dominicans and other Latinx countries demonize textured hair. A couple of years ago there was only ONE natural hair salon in the whole country 😭😬 And they brought that same mentality to the US so it's not surprising she didn't know what to do with her hair. Plenty of Black and mixed people just started learning in the last 5-10 years.
YES!!! That protein did wonders on my hair the first time. I went in the second time about a week later. 😳 mann.. that's about protein overload. Made my hair like nasty dry, had to wash my hair.
I admire Cardi for sharing her journey with us ..and you could hear the love she has for her daughter. She didnt have long hair as a child or teenager, now her hair is tailbone length..something she's doing obviously works.
@@narrington7453 no she didn't, she even said it herself and would get mocked. People assumed because she lightskin she would have longer hair but that not the case. It stereotyping.
i started my natural hair journey 3 years ago and i cannot believe how well my hair grows. i didnt even know my own curl pattern becuase i always had it chemically straightened!! one day i just shaved it off and started again. thanks to youtubers like yourself i take much better care of my hair. no dry brushing, no up in elastics all the time, using head covers for bed. i never make any home recipies thats too much effort. but im very lucky to have 2 curly hair specialists on my doorstep who do curl by curl cuts so currently theyre helping me grow my hair into the shape i want

The egg works the same way as temp color. It does stick to the hair, but the protein rinses away after a few washes depending on porosity. If traditional protein treatments are too strong for your hair, you should try this. Or if you don't have one but need a hair fix for the week.
Wait... if you eat the mask (of course, a mixture only of the edible ingredients) wouldn't the nutrients find its way to your hair anyway? Through your system?? Rather than sit on top of the hair and waste food? I struggle with the concept of using food for hair, especially when it's been proven not to sink as deeply into the hair as we think it does (since the particles are too big).
^^This!! Oil’s one thing. It’s either already a liquid or melts pretty easy. Nourishing your scalp (since it’s skin too) isn’t a bad idea-the “shampooing advice” often has more to do with your scalp’s health…than the actual hair coming out of it. (And since I have sensitive skin…I just use cocoa butter or leftover coconut oil as a moisturizer for my skin. And I swear I’ve seen oils used as hair masks-I personally don’t need it for mine nor would I have the patience, but.) But…food? wHY??? Just fuel and hydrate your body and be careful about what styling tools and products you use?? (Make sure to use a shampoo that doesn’t dry out your scalp??)
It’s faster to place it on the scalp directly-on the hair for moisture or strength. When you eat it, it has to get processed by your whole system and depending on your gut health and organ function, it can take quite some time before seeing the benefits.
@@48mavemiss2 True, if you eat it depending on how healthy you are most of those nutrients might go to areas in your body that’s lacking instead of to your hair. Just apply it to yall hair and scalp lol.
She clapped back in a class is in session type way. "Cardi said "there is no such thing as bad hair and good hair does not need a certain texture." Obviously the RUclipsr did not mean clap back in a negative way.
The only thing I need from a professional is a trim. I see my stylist every 8 to 10 weeks to get a trim. And yes if you want more length retention you should see. Professional for a trim. I was cutting my own hair for years and I was not getting all the damage off. My hair looks and behaves so much better after a trim.
My mom taught me that when applying food in hair (specially the ones that stink) to apply on dirt hair and after it wash it with shampoo and conditioner. I rarely do it because I found it to much work
When I had loose natural hair 15 years ago I adored this mask. I learned about it from all of the pioneers from the natural hair community. Before the sponsors, shea moisture and all those other companies that tuned into black women using what they had in their kitchens while recording in their bathrooms
Nah. I care for my own hair. Only time I get my hair serviced is for hairstyles I can't do myself. Which is braids to the scalp. I'm big trash at that. Other than that I just keep my hair in some form of twists for the most part.
I have (3c4a) tailbone length hair and I grew it myself. I don’t allow for others to touch my hair. Keep in mind I had a few years of setbacks and was still able to achieve that length. I went from neck length to tailbone in just 3.5years. But for the last 3 years when I started intermittent fasting I experienced a ton of extra shedding and breakage. I am no longer doing that and now I can repair my body and my hair should greatly benefit. I’m still at tailbone length but I would’ve been almost at knee length if everything went according to plan. All in all it’s no secret that black women can grow long hair on our own! Happy hair journey y’all.
Hair stylist that worked in hair restoration for years here. I posted this under a reply, but I think it bears repeating. Cardi doesn't over manipulate her hair anymore (due to her using wigs as a protective style) which is the real key. I've always deep conditioned the crap out of my hair (I'm a sit under the dryer w/ a plastic cap for an hour to open up that hair shaft kinda girl), but I was over manipulating it to high heaven for years (a no no, but I am also a do as I say, not as I do kinda stylist). I finally took my own professional advice and stopped w/ the over manipulation. I cut off all of my heat damaged hair earlier this year and wear knotless box braids 80% of the time, and have seen significant growth, because I dont touch it.
My personal hairstylist is my mother. She mixes everything in one(leave in, grease and whatever other products I have dey) and twists or plats up my hair. Works for me. When I try to do my hair is problems. love your channel🇹🇹❤❤❤❤❤
I have pin straight hair, so take this with a grain of salt lol I use egg masks regularly, and I really like them. I will say that whatever smell you put in there with the egg, STAYS. I used fenugreek once and my hair smelled like maple syrup for at least two weeks. Like my co-workers commented on it it was that strong. Bright side, it really makes my hair soft, cuts down on frizz, and right now my hair (intentionally lol) smells like cinnamon and strawberries.
Eggs will cook in your hair if you use warm water to wash them out. People who try out historical "shampoo" recipes, which often contain eggs, often find this out the hard way XD
@@joeroot9142 Never had water hot enough to cook eggs. That would be over 150 degrees f, and your skin wouldn't tolerate it to begin with - it would burn before it hit that temp.
When I do mask that has mayo and egg and any type of oil in it I usually let it sit in my hair over night while I sleep (like doing the over night hair mask challenge) and I use it as a protein treatment 1-2 times a month and I usually get and extra inch of hair growth which is something I always like lol
@@alyssah60 I do it as a protein treatment but also a pre-poo so it’s usually on dirty hair. I do it this way so I can wash it out and get the smell out of my hair
It’s not true! Egg 🥚 protein treatments work better in my hair than any other protein treatment I’ve ever used. Folks who say otherwise… It’s just rhetoric it’s not true! Apparently the size of the protein doesn’t have anything to do with it working or not!
I can’t believe ppl never used this mix before she posted it. I’ve been doing this and other mixes for years. These products don’t “make your hair grow faster” but they help your hair stay healthy. Doing this, trimming your ends and knowing what your hair needs will help it grow
I did this mask but saw some things wrong for my hair. Mayonaise is emulsified egg there was no reason to add the egg. Then, I found out that I do like the stiffness, that you speak of, effecting my hair from using egg or mayonnaise. Also, my hair doesn't like olive oil. It breaks my hair off. I love honey in my hair with the exception that it lightens my hair color. I had black hair and can not get that color back. I stopped doing the mask altogether.
Cosmetologists in my family have told me so many times that everyone has a different length their hair can grow and when you reach yours, mine it can't grow anymore. It doesn't matter how healthy your hair is. You might gain an inch or so from really really trying... But I'd rather be out having fun or watching Netflix then in the bathroom 24/7
I use this mix all the time in my daughters hair. The difference is that I use Avocado oil in stead of the Avocado itself. I have seen the difference in strength and length
No judgements but... all those food items contain molecules that are too large to penetrate the hair. The argan oil may penetrate but most of that is topical. Not getting into the hair. Just stick to formulated products that have been hydrolyzed to be able to penetrate our find strands. Eat the foods though ladies. You will get the benefits that way.
Of course you dont get beneficial protein from mayo or egg. How else would manufacturers make money from us gullible people. I use mayo/avocado/EVCO and when I first started I had a phenomenal difference in the strength of my hair. So when they say, mayo can't benefit hair, I think they were talking to the sheep or people who's hair dont take well to it?
One thing I have been doing latley is filling a bucket with water and adding my oil of choice (i use coconut or almond usually), and then dunking my hair in it after washing. Swish it around until there is no oil left on the surface. Just the lenghts, dont dunk your scalp in. I use less than a teaspoon, and my hair is dry, semi-thick and waist lenght. It coats the entire head, strand by strand in a thin layer of oil, locks in moisture etc. There is no greasy spots, it dosent even feel oily the way adding oils can, just hydrated. If my hair is super dry I add some extra oil to the tips after it has dried.
Adding to those wanting to try it: might take a few tries getting the oil amount right. You need way less than you'd normally would. But once you have it down... so good!

I mean no harm and I LOVE watching your videos, but the first step to achieving her length, I would say, is to stop permanently coloring and breaking down your hair. You have beautiful hair and we are hair twins. I also have kinky straight/coily type 4 hair.
So there is basically nothing in your videos that is relevant to me or my life. That said, I loooove your videos and you are definitely one of the more entertaining RUclipsrs I’ve come across.
Nope! I don't go to the hairdresser for regular hair care! This is Jamaica my bank account caah manage rasta lol. But I get it styled once a month! Growing it out now and so far in the past 2 years, it has grown past my shoulder. I have the same hair texture as you Viv! I use the cheapest shampoo and condition I can find. Just add the good oils to it to change up the formulation. But I am definitely taking these tips you are giving! I tried a similar hair mask this month too my hair loved it! Was my first treatment in 2 years! Going to do better! Use rosemary oil and peppermint oil in the mix and it takes care of the smell. That is what I did and I didn't use any egg.
It's so funny that everyone is on the "hair journey's" and "routines", when I'm still washing, air drying and greasing my daughters' scalps and that's been enough to get their hair to their butts 🤣
I've been doing my hair by myself for years now and I don't go to the salons anymore! Also I've tried this mask and it made my hair really soft and my curls were POPPING!!! Although it was quite difficult getting the avocado particles out.
If you had particles you didn't blend it enough. Put your avocado in a blender or bullet with water or aloe juice. When your done it will look like conditioner.
I am scared about the particles getting stuck in my hair even after blending everything really “conditioner” smooth in my nutribullet cause that happened to me when I tried another diy hair mask using Ayurvedic ingredients. I think I’ll pass for now lol 😂.
when you use egg on your hair make sure that you don't use hot water to wash it off, or else the egg will cook in your hair. that happened to me before and it was NOT fun.
I do see a difference in my hair when I use mayonnaise. But I also mix it with Greek yogurt. The results on my hair are like a protein treatment in that the curl of my hair relaxes a bit. But true, I don't know if it is making it stronger...just moisturized and loosened curls like with henna. I don't really "do" masks anymore. They are kind of a bit "extra for me. But in the middle of winter, sometimes I will do this once, just to give my hair something different-- and she usually likes it.
I live in Japan where there is only one salon that knows how to treat curly hair. I live quite far away, but still try to go there 1-2x a year, even though it costs an arm and a leg to get there and back. Well, pre-pandemic me used to. Now I'm just suffering through mediocre haircuts at regular salons that have no idea what to do with natural curls. Edit: I feel for those with kinky hair here. I have it bad enough and I only have loose curls!
I believe that you might not be growing your hair long because of the damage from bleaching and colouring your hair all the time. Take the year off on that and see how your hair likes it. 😊😊
I don't have a hair stylist even though I could definitely get one. I just like touching my own hair since the last time I let someone do it, my edges decided to take a trip for about year or two. I'm like 50/50 DIY (deep conditioners, hair teas- I follow Curly Proverbs advice) versus products (shampoos, leave-ins.) It seems to work for me! Edit: I see that it's been proven that the protein in egg is "too big," but when I used it, I could *feel* the difference in my hair. I don't need to now because of henna, but I don't think we should count it out.
I rather make my own hairbutter and hairmask because I know exactly what goes into my hair. To me it works pretty good. Only shampoo I don't make. If I am lazy I use a product that I feel is good for my hair. I use to go braid my hair by a stylist. I mostly do my own hair....in.that way I learn more about my natural hair..
Had a stylist my whole relaxed days, soon as I went natural I didn't trust a soul with it. Not because I didn't love my stylist but she wasn't "natural hair experienced" and she said so. I got me now tho🤷🏿♀️
@@TheBlackExperienceArchive just because she’s mix means nothing. She had a baby and took prenatal vitamins which helped her in her hair growth. I’m mix and my hair grew doing pregnancy.

I never had a consistent stylist and have been natural since high-school and am still learning what's best for my hair. Protective styles and no heat seem to be the best combination for me thus far
…I’m watching the food hair mask and…I admit. Why wouldn’t you just…eat these things? Get your body to take in these nutrients since…hair’s technically “dead” keratin that’s pushed out?? Avocado and honey aren’t cheap??? Hair’s kinda like a hydrated singing voice: take care of your body, and eventually your hair will benefit-hair’s kinda “low priority” in cell production and whatnot verses keeping fueled to fight off infections. And correct me if I’m wrong but…isn’t half the battle with nurturing healthy hair keeping a healthy scalp?
Tbh long hair is overrated. My hair grows fast af to the point where it's annoying and I find myself constantly cutting/trimming every few weeks trying to keep it above should length. *Your hair can not grow with split ends* Your hair needs room to breathe and absorb the products you use. It becomes really hard to manage and time consuming once it goes past my shoulders. I don't have a hair stylist. I use affordable moisturizing shampoo, conditioner, leave in, oil, and a creamy styling gel. The key to your hair growing is washing it on a regular schedule, moisturizing, detangling with a wide tooth comb, and trimming it! I have 3c4a hair and have seen many RUclipsrs do wash and gos but my hair *HATES* wash and gos. It always ends up being dry af and weird. Not to mention it takes FOREVER to do that. I just do twist outs and my curls turn out looking bomb af when they fully dry with definition. Honestly just do what works for you!! Our hair is different and what works for several women on RUclips may not work for you. I also think genetics plays a part in to. On my mom's side, the women in the family have a history of growing long thick hair quickly.
I know people say that the protein in the mayo doesn’t help because they are to big to penetrate but i feel like it does something to cat your hair on the outside and creates some kind of barrier to prevent ir from breaking similar to how silicone based heat protectants creates a barrier for your hair when you straighten it.
My hair was too my butt growing up my grandma owned a hair salon and so did her sister so I went to them on a regular basis as a child. But my grandmas hair is too her butt and my mother and father have long thick hair as well so I guess it was a combo of genetics and how my hair was taken care of. I cut it a lot as I got older and dyed it funky colors it grows slower now that im older. But I shaved it in 2012 and now it's about 2 inches above my belly button. My goal is to have it at my butt by 2023 because it grows slower now. But i hate getting asked what im mixed with or how much my weave took etc. We can grow long beautiful hair if you're biracial or not.
there is this misconception that if you are mixed you automatically have good hair that will grow long, wrong! I am the same as cardi, my dad is from the island and my mom is from the Dominican Republic, cardi got the same type of hair texture as mine only difference is that her hair is thicker in texture than Mine, the hair in my picture is just a wig, which I love, I wish my hair was 4 type, I hate my hair, my hair texture is such a difficult hair to take care off, but one thing I can tell you is that when I was a child and my mom was the one taking care of my hair, my hair used to be long, strong and healthy, it was after I started taking care of my hair that my hair was damaged, I need to ask my mom what type of routine she used to do with my hair so that I can start doing it again, any ways the people who claim that hair of black women don't grow long are lying, in ancient times our ancestors used to have really long and strong hair reaching their butts! if they could get their hair to grow long and strong in an era that had no shampoo or conditioner what's stopping us from doing the same? if they could do it, so can we! also a tip, if you don't like the mayo you can replace it with shea butter!
I don’t have a stylist or go to the salon, I do my own hair. Idk why people put eggs/mayonnaise or any other processed food or animal products into their hair lol that’s weird. Oh and cardi still isn’t black, she even called a black woman a roach and monkey but some of y’all swear she is but look at parents chile, only two blacks can make a black child but I’ll come back when there’s comments lol.
Ever since I started making my own hair butter my hair is growing more than it ever has! Its healthier too. So I do recommend people try making some home made products sometimes ur hair just thrives with more simple products rather than extravagant products that are riddled with preservatives
@@aaliyahhughes5347 for me I mix tamunu butter, shae butter, and mango butter. You melt them in a metal bowl but don't like cook them too hot or it will lose its nutrients just melt them slowly together then add your favorite oils I added tbs of castor oil, coconut oil, argon oils, almond oil, sun flower oil, girl every oil my hair likes Then I use the mixer on it so it's all liquid Then I place it in the fridge but every 15-20 mins I take it back out and keep mixing it with the mixer After an hour or 2 you get a nice fluffy butter and fill it up in containers It lasts me all year. It melts in contact with your warm skin and hair! I put it on my hair my skin and it really works I recommend checking out hair butter videos thats where I first got the idea. I have 3c 4a hair So I just wash My hair Condition Leave in And butter while it's wet Braid BAM My braid outs come out juicy and my hair is shiny bouncy no oily residue it's like ur hair eats It all up. It's not breaking or dry I do co wash with butter and my hair is mid way my back now Ik products dont grow ur hair but some do add protection and seal hydration that help ur hair just thrive
@@imabit2lil that’s really interesting. Thanks for all the info! My hair is a tad tighter, texture wise. Just about my entire head is 4c, and my current regimen works but sometimes I wonder if I’m being too lazy lol. But thank you so much for all that info! I’ll have to try some variation of that sometime, since my hair is lower porosity, and I seem to have more of an issue keeping it moisturized during colder months of the year.
@@aaliyahhughes5347 anytime i hope I helped I totally understand my hair is very very dry and the winter its so bad it's like I personally feel like oil wasn't enough of a sealant my hair just suck it up But butter is like riddled with oils and it's very creamy and for me I think even tho making the butter takes extra effort. It has made my hair routine super easier. It makes my hair like easy to stretch so my braid outs come out so bomb ! And my skin idk I have eczema like im so ashy and dry but since i use the butter after a shower I just put moisturizer on and then seal with butter on my skin and i don't feel greasy at all. Skin is soft without that heavy feeling. I'm really happy and u can add fragrances it does not have a strong smell so u can add essential oils and smell good ! Let me know if u find any other ideas ! 💕
Please stop putting food in your hair and start using products made for your hair. There is an ebook called Wash Your Damn Hair that covers all of this.
Thank you! 🌟🌹😘💕🌟 Why not use avocado oil instead of the whole thing? Then leave out the egg and mayo, and add rosemary extract, which has been shown to work as well as Rogaine. I'm testing the rosemary oil out on my mom right now, I started adding a few drops to her conditioner and leaving it on for five minutes. I'll let you know if it works. Her hair is a little thin, so I'm hoping it fills in. I'm using it too, but my hair is already thick, so I'll see if it grows longer faster.
I usually wash my hair out swith shampoo and conditioner after Deep conditioning. Did something simular to what you did today for wash day. LOVE your vids btw. Stay blessed 😘
My natural hair is down to my tailbone and I have not been to a hair stylist in 12 years. Stylists have damaged my hair in the past, so I just do it myself.
Ever since I came back natural, I've never went to the salon to get my hair washed, i just go to ONE braider, that's all. My hair is almost viv's length and living in a country where people like me think we can't grow hair, you can imagine the looks i get. We can grow hair, we just need to know what to do to help us grow our hair ❤️❤️
I'm happy you started posting again....we gonna grow out our hair together 😭......I style my own hair, do braids on my own too. I have started a wig journey and I'm scared, cause like how do I moisturize between ??? Sigh....I tried the avacado diy before too....don't like how it feels,it doesn't help with volume cause my hair strands are thin. But @Viv.....please keep us posted, cause I believe my hair can grow toooo😭😭😭
Remember God loves you🤗 John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Please turn your life around and repent before its too late.
I tend to use Mayo and eggs. Didn’t know about the honey or that the Mayo/egg doesn’t work as well. I’m too cheap for beer (helps get the chlorine out of my hair after swimming).
I started my natural hair journey 11 years ago but I don’t consider it a true natural hair journey because I colored and bleach my hair, it would grow past my waist but I’d cut it because of damage. I recently did a big chop and I’m starting over, no heat no color.
I go to a stylist 3 times a year for a trim and a silk press. I like my hair to be straight when it’s trimmed. I also appreciate my stylist examining my hair and accessing its condition.
I've been following your hair journey for like 7 years. I absolutely love your personality. I remember you going from relaxed to natural and you were almost at waist length being relaxed. I haven't seen much difference in the growth of your hair for the past couple years.
I think everyone needs to realise that EVERYONES HAIR is DIFFERENT even if it "looks" the same. Every one of us has hair, skin and bodies that is unique to us. Our hair, skin and bodies are made of cells containing our own special DNA. Hence, it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to copy another's exact routine and expect the results to be the same.
Save yourself the money, headache and frustration in trying to look like someone else. It's ok to learn from another's advise, tips and routines. But ultimately learn your OWN hair, skin & bodies to create an uniquely YOU!
Facts some folks need to realize as you said it’s about DNA Cardi is mix, some of us who are black peoples has different DNAs which helps our hair to grow faster and has different curls. Look at folks that has no other DNA race when their hair gets wet their curls pop and when our hair like 4C hair gets wet and conditioner in it our curls doesn’t pop as some would call it coils. That’s why we shouldn’t use curly hair people methods their products doesn’t work for our hair.
@@sunshineislandgirl4560 fake news.
@@sunshineislandgirl4560 this isn’t really the best way to go about our hair. As a natural hair specialist, the size of your curls don’t really matter. It’s your density,porosity, and fabric. Saying a hairstyle can’t work for 4c hair is like telling your dentist you’re a Gemini
But at the same time you can still experiment and find out what works best for your own hair. That's how you learn, you may have to get ideas from what other people have tried first.

I don't bother with hair masks, I just consume the food as your hair grows out from the scalp and buy the ready made conditioners.
My mother was my hair stylist. Mamamama the tears I've cried and the joy afterwards lol
My daughter got lice from someone in her kindergarten class. I used mayo as a mask.
I combed her hair in teeny tiny sections with the smallest tooth comb. Watching them come out was gross but it worked. After combing through the mayo thoroughly I put more of the mask on let it sit and watched them all come out during her shampoo.
I did this twice, because we lived with an older woman that insist not to use a chemical wash to get rid of them.
I did it for two weeks and let me tell you... Her hair was so shiny and moisturized i just started doing it regularly my daughter's hair is super long. Sorry about the gross story, but i would not have found out about mayo if she'd have never got lice.
I would love to find a truly professional hairdresser that knows their stuff. I could do with a good cut and treatments.
Seltser/club soda/ soda water helps with the smell
Honestly I admire persons who are consistent and mix their own products. They really do stick to it. I just don’t have the patience. Its just easier to buy products. Plus my hair is really thick. Imagine having to do everything in sections plus mixing your own products?

As someone with long thick hair, who does make her own stuff and sections wayyyy smaller than most because of it. I do know it takes TIME 😂 can't be lazy with it and really have to commit. So if you're not going to put the time in then yea you'll struggle. I was in and out of the bathroom for 4 hours on Saturday but me and my fro are better for it 😪
I‘m consistent with mixing my avocado protein mask. 🙋🏾♀️ I was SHOOKETH at how much my hair was shining and at how soft it was. My parents were suspicious asf, but once they saw my hair they had to give me my props. I’ve been doing it consistently once a month since March or April. I take a picture everytime and watch how my hair was getting bigger and bigger after time. My hair maintains the shine now and contains a healthy amount of protein. I would say I’m kind of a newbie to natural hair since I cut it last year. Its not as time consuming as it seems to mix it. 🙈
*Also, it’s really easy to wash it out for me. Maybe it’s the difference of ingredients.
Watch Sherea delsol
She keeps her hair braided under a weave 99 percent of the time. Her weaves are installed properly so they dont break off her hair. I did this years ago. Once i started wearing my long natural hair i had no idea how to actually take care of it on a day to day and broke it off in no time.
Do you know how to take care of your natural hair now?
@@monicacreator3168 yes. I wear simple styles. It's a little past bra strap length. I usually wash and deep condition once a week. And either blow it out or twist and brush it out. Sometimes i actually flat iron it.
I'm in my braid and protect faze now. I do everything except trimming my ends myself.
I used to constantly wear weaves and essentially had the same experience. Took me years to figure out what works for my hair and I make hair care products for a living 🥴
@@hns1368 horrible
I read some comments and still think it's funny people talk about products making there grow faster cause its biologically impossible to apply something to your hair and have it grow faster. The speed our hair grows at is limited by our genetics. There are products that help prevent breakage which can make the hair appear to grow faster but I doesnt actually grow faster
So, the food and medicine that you consume is a biological factor? I ask because certain medications effect your hair growth and can even make you go bald. When you are deficient in certain minerals, you suffer from hair loss. When you consume to much of something that contain metals you suffer from hair loss. So, how can the opposite not occur.
Thank u. Not only speed but the length it can get to. I keep telling people if ur hairs anogen stage in combination with the speed of growth isn't condusive to certain length the hair will never get there. Two persons can have 5 years of growth before the hair dies and one will have over 30 inches while another maybe 15. But as I also always say they don't want to hair that all they need to do is retain the length to see the growth they can have ... Not do many want to hair that the less mix genes u have in the body that defines the anogen levels is the shorter the growth period. And many feel that oh if u black then it means u not mix not realising many of us are. Even if not on the surface of we have 4c hair.. it's the code feel within.
@@dawndesu6863 try to understand. The genetics determine what length u can get to and growth rate, and hair type etc. However what u describe are just a few of many internal and external factors that hinders the growth and/retention of the hair. Many blacks will never have say 30 inches of hair because the less mix u are the shorter ur growth period is to as low as two years for some. Many who can have more than 20 inches usually have longer growth cycles with and without faster hair growth.
Have you tried minoxidil? It keeps hair fall to a minimum. A hair will continue to grow in length as long as it doesn't fall so less hair fall = longer hair. I'm no expert but i think that's how it works.
@@dawndesu6863 What you're saying is actually true. All of that also affects how your hair grows. Hair grows from within. So what you eat, medications, drink, drugs and genetics plays a role in hair growth. What you put on your hair after it grows from the scalp doesn't play any role in your hair growth. It may help seal in moisture or help prevent breakage, protect from outside elements, etc. But it plays no part in how your hair will grow from your scalp.
1:53 I think what she meant was the protective styling. CardioB is always wearing wigs so her natural hair is not always being manipulated or damaged by the sun. It's tucked away somewhere and just left to grow while using her products and whatever.....
This part! Cardi doesn't over manipulate her hair anymore (due to her using wigs as a protective style) which is the real key. I wear knotless box braids 80% of the time, and I've seen significant growth in the span of 9 months. Before, I was absolutely deep conditioning my hair, but I was over manipulating it to high heaven for years. Once I stopped, growth.

@@Bunnypop_princess yes that. That seems.... dangerous lol. Plus I'm accident prone. I don't need things being poked 😬
Why is that any of your concern???? 🙄
One year I grew my nails and maintained them at 2 inches. When they’re your own nails (or grow them out and maintain them with acrylic) it’s much different than adding nails that aren’t yours. It’s very easy to do every day tasks when they grow with you. I remember cutting them and attempting to get fake ones a few months later and I couldn’t function without removing them a few hours later.
It's no problem. You get used to it
😂😂 I would honestly eat the egg and get the nutrients to enter my hair through my body😂 and I’m a lazy natural😂
Well yeah... Hair strands are dead. They don't do anything with nutrients, they're dead.
You're my kind of natural. All that food wasted on dead hair when you could eat it.
I was thinking the same thing!!
NO!! Eat the avocados!!! Those are expensive and aren’t going to do anything as a topical on what’s an already dead protein!!
Agreed! Consuming it is much better honestly. I buy all my products already made up with those ingredients in it already and my hair is healthy and huge.
@@anonymousfellow8879 it’s not dead
I’m sure diet has a lot to do with cardi’s hair goals too. She probably eats a lot better now than she did when she was hustling
She also has the funds for top notch stylist & products.
Growing up in Puerto Rico I have many memories of my mother doing the avocado and egg mask on our hair. There were always many traditional/folk remedies.

I agree. I wouldn't really Call it "cardio B mask" because we used it back in the day when we were like 12yrs old. But of course when a celebrity do something, then the ppl make it seem as if the celebrity came up with it. It's a very old tradition that apparently some ppl didn't know anything about.
@@PixelPaperDesigns putting Cardi B in the title gets the clicks tho, I don’t think she’s trying to deny that people did it before her. She also copied Cardi’s recipe
@@tama3442 Stop wasting your time reading the bible. There are better and true things written.
Aye I’m black and Puerto Rican I didn’t grow up in Puerto Rico but the traditions were passed on
That mask as always existed, Cardi B just learned what we use in the Caribbean. Nothing new. One thing I would not add is egg every time cos that will backfire if you are low porosity. Nor jbco it s sealing and viscous and defeating the purpose at this stage... If their grandma tell them to make the recipe to revive their hair they won't do it. But when Cardi b makes it then she get praise for it. 😂
After using a egg treatment use lemon juice in water. Or acv water rinse to remove that egg scent and close your cuticles
Totally agree.
Her parents are Caribbean, but Dominicans and other Latinx countries demonize textured hair. A couple of years ago there was only ONE natural hair salon in the whole country 😭😬 And they brought that same mentality to the US so it's not surprising she didn't know what to do with her hair. Plenty of Black and mixed people just started learning in the last 5-10 years.
🙌🙌🙌
The lemon juice and acv are news to me, thanks
YES!!! That protein did wonders on my hair the first time. I went in the second time about a week later. 😳 mann.. that's about protein overload. Made my hair like nasty dry, had to wash my hair.
I admire Cardi for sharing her journey with us ..and you could hear the love she has for her daughter. She didnt have long hair as a child or teenager, now her hair is tailbone length..something she's doing obviously works.

The egg works the same way as temp color. It does stick to the hair, but the protein rinses away after a few washes depending on porosity. If traditional protein treatments are too strong for your hair, you should try this. Or if you don't have one but need a hair fix for the week.
Great advice!
Wait... if you eat the mask (of course, a mixture only of the edible ingredients) wouldn't the nutrients find its way to your hair anyway? Through your system?? Rather than sit on top of the hair and waste food? I struggle with the concept of using food for hair, especially when it's been proven not to sink as deeply into the hair as we think it does (since the particles are too big).
^^This!!
Oil’s one thing. It’s either already a liquid or melts pretty easy. Nourishing your scalp (since it’s skin too) isn’t a bad idea-the “shampooing advice” often has more to do with your scalp’s health…than the actual hair coming out of it. (And since I have sensitive skin…I just use cocoa butter or leftover coconut oil as a moisturizer for my skin. And I swear I’ve seen oils used as hair masks-I personally don’t need it for mine nor would I have the patience, but.)
But…food? wHY??? Just fuel and hydrate your body and be careful about what styling tools and products you use?? (Make sure to use a shampoo that doesn’t dry out your scalp??)
@Kat Brown 😂😂😂😂😭😭
This is exactly what I thought 😂 I'd rather eat the banana, avocado, eggs and mayo even if I don't like mayo.
It’s faster to place it on the scalp directly-on the hair for moisture or strength. When you eat it, it has to get processed by your whole system and depending on your gut health and organ function, it can take quite some time before seeing the benefits.
@@48mavemiss2 True, if you eat it depending on how healthy you are most of those nutrients might go to areas in your body that’s lacking instead of to your hair. Just apply it to yall hair and scalp lol.

@@fee6631 no one cares
She clapped back in a class is in session type way. "Cardi said "there is no such thing as bad hair and good hair does not need a certain texture." Obviously the RUclipsr did not mean clap back in a negative way.
The only thing I need from a professional is a trim. I see my stylist every 8 to 10 weeks to get a trim. And yes if you want more length retention you should see. Professional for a trim. I was cutting my own hair for years and I was not getting all the damage off. My hair looks and behaves so much better after a trim.
My mom taught me that when applying food in hair (specially the ones that stink) to apply on dirt hair and after it wash it with shampoo and conditioner. I rarely do it because I found it to much work
When I had loose natural hair 15 years ago I adored this mask. I learned about it from all of the pioneers from the natural hair community. Before the sponsors, shea moisture and all those other companies that tuned into black women using what they had in their kitchens while recording in their bathrooms
But why did i think you said prisoners😩
Nah. I care for my own hair. Only time I get my hair serviced is for hairstyles I can't do myself. Which is braids to the scalp. I'm big trash at that. Other than that I just keep my hair in some form of twists for the most part.
I have (3c4a) tailbone length hair and I grew it myself. I don’t allow for others to touch my hair. Keep in mind I had a few years of setbacks and was still able to achieve that length. I went from neck length to tailbone in just 3.5years.
But for the last 3 years when I started intermittent fasting I experienced a ton of extra shedding and breakage. I am no longer doing that and now I can repair my body and my hair should greatly benefit. I’m still at tailbone length but I would’ve been almost at knee length if everything went according to plan.
All in all it’s no secret that black women can grow long hair on our own! Happy hair journey y’all.
Hair stylist that worked in hair restoration for years here. I posted this under a reply, but I think it bears repeating. Cardi doesn't over manipulate her hair anymore (due to her using wigs as a protective style) which is the real key. I've always deep conditioned the crap out of my hair (I'm a sit under the dryer w/ a plastic cap for an hour to open up that hair shaft kinda girl), but I was over manipulating it to high heaven for years (a no no, but I am also a do as I say, not as I do kinda stylist). I finally took my own professional advice and stopped w/ the over manipulation. I cut off all of my heat damaged hair earlier this year and wear knotless box braids 80% of the time, and have seen significant growth, because I dont touch it.
My personal hairstylist is my mother. She mixes everything in one(leave in, grease and whatever other products I have dey) and twists or plats up my hair. Works for me. When I try to do my hair is problems. love your channel🇹🇹❤❤❤❤❤
I see that flag ❤🇹🇹
I have pin straight hair, so take this with a grain of salt lol I use egg masks regularly, and I really like them. I will say that whatever smell you put in there with the egg, STAYS. I used fenugreek once and my hair smelled like maple syrup for at least two weeks. Like my co-workers commented on it it was that strong. Bright side, it really makes my hair soft, cuts down on frizz, and right now my hair (intentionally lol) smells like cinnamon and strawberries.
gtk about the smell staying-lol
Cardi's pregnancies contributed to her growth
Eggs will cook in your hair if you use warm water to wash them out. People who try out historical "shampoo" recipes, which often contain eggs, often find this out the hard way XD
Yep, white bits
Learned that the hard way when I was younger
@@joeroot9142 Never had water hot enough to cook eggs. That would be over 150 degrees f, and your skin wouldn't tolerate it to begin with - it would burn before it hit that temp.
Bernadette Banner did a funny historical shampoo video... and came out with clotted eggs in her hair. :)
When I do mask that has mayo and egg and any type of oil in it I usually let it sit in my hair over night while I sleep (like doing the over night hair mask challenge) and I use it as a protein treatment 1-2 times a month and I usually get and extra inch of hair growth which is something I always like lol
Do you do it on clean hair or dirty hair?
@@alyssah60 I do it as a protein treatment but also a pre-poo so it’s usually on dirty hair. I do it this way so I can wash it out and get the smell out of my hair
I'm allergic to egg, so I use avocado and vegan-based mayo which works also.
@@bellebonebag8096 yeah egg i cant imagine sleeping with it.
@@missmiya1164 Yeah lol. It would make your bed and shower stink, that would be awful
It’s not true! Egg 🥚 protein treatments work better in my hair than any other protein treatment I’ve ever used. Folks who say otherwise… It’s just rhetoric it’s not true! Apparently the size of the protein doesn’t have anything to do with it working or not!
I can’t believe ppl never used this mix before she posted it. I’ve been doing this and other mixes for years. These products don’t “make your hair grow faster” but they help your hair stay healthy. Doing this, trimming your ends and knowing what your hair needs will help it grow
ikr. Seems to me like somebody on one of the hair boards from back of the day, like LHCF and LHC, been posted a recipe very similar.

I Was Upset When People Made Funn Of BIG ED For Puttin' Mayonaise In His Hair!
I did this mask but saw some things wrong for my hair. Mayonaise is emulsified egg there was no reason to add the egg. Then, I found out that I do like the stiffness, that you speak of, effecting my hair from using egg or mayonnaise. Also, my hair doesn't like olive oil. It breaks my hair off. I love honey in my hair with the exception that it lightens my hair color. I had black hair and can not get that color back. I stopped doing the mask altogether.
Cosmetologists in my family have told me so many times that everyone has a different length their hair can grow and when you reach yours, mine it can't grow anymore. It doesn't matter how healthy your hair is. You might gain an inch or so from really really trying... But I'd rather be out having fun or watching Netflix then in the bathroom 24/7
for my mum its at her shoulders, it's so thin and fine that it cannot grow longer
@Cactus Flower trimming your ends doesn’t make the scalp at the opposite end of the hair shaft grow more hair… make it make sense.
All mayonaise is.. is eggs, oil & vinegar. Do with this information as you will ladies. 🤗💕
I’m looking at the title and getting worried
I use this mix all the time in my daughters hair. The difference is that I use Avocado oil in stead of the Avocado itself. I have seen the difference in strength and length
Tried avocado mixed with oils and honey and my hair felt stiff. So i leave diy masks alone. Its not for my hair
No judgements but... all those food items contain molecules that are too large to penetrate the hair. The argan oil may penetrate but most of that is topical. Not getting into the hair. Just stick to formulated products that have been hydrolyzed to be able to penetrate our find strands. Eat the foods though ladies. You will get the benefits that way.
Of course you dont get beneficial protein from mayo or egg.
How else would manufacturers make money from us gullible people.
I use mayo/avocado/EVCO
and when I first started I had a phenomenal difference in the strength of my hair.
So when they say, mayo can't benefit hair, I think they were talking to the sheep or people who's hair dont take well to it?
One thing I have been doing latley is filling a bucket with water and adding my oil of choice (i use coconut or almond usually), and then dunking my hair in it after washing.
Swish it around until there is no oil left on the surface.
Just the lenghts, dont dunk your scalp in.
I use less than a teaspoon, and my hair is dry, semi-thick and waist lenght.
It coats the entire head, strand by strand in a thin layer of oil, locks in moisture etc.
There is no greasy spots, it dosent even feel oily the way adding oils can, just hydrated.
If my hair is super dry I add some extra oil to the tips after it has dried.
Ima try this..
Okay innovation. Must do.
Adding to those wanting to try it: might take a few tries getting the oil amount right. You need way less than you'd normally would.
But once you have it down... so good!
Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️
*What is the Gospel?*
The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Romans 10:9
9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!
Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS
Genius
haven’t watched you in a long time glad to see your still amazing and happy and lovely
Same thing mi sey too, stick to the store bought, probably add a little extra castor oil to their product 😂😂😂 I just can't be bothered.
I mean no harm and I LOVE watching your videos, but the first step to achieving her length, I would say, is to stop permanently coloring and breaking down your hair. You have beautiful hair and we are hair twins. I also have kinky straight/coily type 4 hair.
Store bought deep conditioner...but add a few ingredients like avocado and extra oils
My hair was at its best when I had an actual hair stylist . She trimmed my hair and kept it really healthy .
So there is basically nothing in your videos that is relevant to me or my life. That said, I loooove your videos and you are definitely one of the more entertaining RUclipsrs I’ve come across.
Nope! I don't go to the hairdresser for regular hair care! This is Jamaica my bank account caah manage rasta lol. But I get it styled once a month! Growing it out now and so far in the past 2 years, it has grown past my shoulder. I have the same hair texture as you Viv! I use the cheapest shampoo and condition I can find. Just add the good oils to it to change up the formulation. But I am definitely taking these tips you are giving! I tried a similar hair mask this month too my hair loved it! Was my first treatment in 2 years! Going to do better! Use rosemary oil and peppermint oil in the mix and it takes care of the smell. That is what I did and I didn't use any egg.
It's so funny that everyone is on the "hair journey's" and "routines", when I'm still washing, air drying and greasing my daughters' scalps and that's been enough to get their hair to their butts 🤣
I've been doing my hair by myself for years now and I don't go to the salons anymore!
Also I've tried this mask and it made my hair really soft and my curls were POPPING!!! Although it was quite difficult getting the avocado particles out.
If you had particles you didn't blend it enough. Put your avocado in a blender or bullet with water or aloe juice. When your done it will look like conditioner.
I am scared about the particles getting stuck in my hair even after blending everything really “conditioner” smooth in my nutribullet cause that happened to me when I tried another diy hair mask using Ayurvedic ingredients. I think I’ll pass for now lol 😂.
@@soundreign2319 😂lol
Maybe try avocado oil instead of the actual avocado to avoid the chunks.
when you use egg on your hair make sure that you don't use hot water to wash it off, or else the egg will cook in your hair. that happened to me before and it was NOT fun.
I do see a difference in my hair when I use mayonnaise. But I also mix it with Greek yogurt. The results on my hair are like a protein treatment in that the curl of my hair relaxes a bit. But true, I don't know if it is making it stronger...just moisturized and loosened curls like with henna. I don't really "do" masks anymore. They are kind of a bit "extra for me. But in the middle of winter, sometimes I will do this once, just to give my hair something different-- and she usually likes it.
I live in Japan where there is only one salon that knows how to treat curly hair. I live quite far away, but still try to go there 1-2x a year, even though it costs an arm and a leg to get there and back. Well, pre-pandemic me used to. Now I'm just suffering through mediocre haircuts at regular salons that have no idea what to do with natural curls.
Edit: I feel for those with kinky hair here. I have it bad enough and I only have loose curls!
why would u use the term claps back??? she uplifted type tight curls
Yeah the title is definitely misworded. Like I guess she clapped back at the people who disparage women with tighter curl patterns.
It’s clickbait
I tried egg and mayonnaise in my hair and did not get any benefits.
Same
Same. The protein was too much for my hair.
people worry more about what they put on their body instead of in it lol...if they would eat a better diet the would see better results!!
My mother calls avocado pear too. Must be a Jamaican thing. Lol
I believe that you might not be growing your hair long because of the damage from bleaching and colouring your hair all the time.
Take the year off on that and see how your hair likes it. 😊😊
Kudos for her, but I can't put food on my hair. I may could do the honey, but everything else....nah, no can do 😣😖
I don't have a hair stylist even though I could definitely get one. I just like touching my own hair since the last time I let someone do it, my edges decided to take a trip for about year or two.
I'm like 50/50 DIY (deep conditioners, hair teas- I follow Curly Proverbs advice) versus products (shampoos, leave-ins.) It seems to work for me!
Edit: I see that it's been proven that the protein in egg is "too big," but when I used it, I could *feel* the difference in my hair. I don't need to now because of henna, but I don't think we should count it out.
probably due to the emollients in the yolk
Did you wash it out with cold or lukewarm water? Hot water can cook the raw egg you added and make that eggy smell😅 I learned that the hard way💀
I have been using this mask for couple of months now and it works for me. I put the mask in first then shampoo and conditione after.
I rather make my own hairbutter and hairmask because I know exactly what goes into my hair. To me it works pretty good. Only shampoo I don't make. If I am lazy I use a product that I feel is good for my hair. I use to go braid my hair by a stylist. I mostly do my own hair....in.that way I learn more about my natural hair..
Had a stylist my whole relaxed days, soon as I went natural I didn't trust a soul with it. Not because I didn't love my stylist but she wasn't "natural hair experienced" and she said so. I got me now tho🤷🏿♀️
I think that the hair growth can also be contributed to her pregnancy as well.
And the fact she's not black 🙄
@@TheBlackExperienceArchive just because she’s mix means nothing. She had a baby and took prenatal vitamins which helped her in her hair growth. I’m mix and my hair grew doing pregnancy.
Honestly I think this has a interesting effect on your hair, better to keep a Routine for at least 1 month to see if you notice results
Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️

Cardi starting to look like a brown Joan Rivers 😂🤣
She needs to leave her face alone 🙈
I never had a consistent stylist and have been natural since high-school and am still learning what's best for my hair. Protective styles and no heat seem to be the best combination for me thus far
…I’m watching the food hair mask and…I admit. Why wouldn’t you just…eat these things? Get your body to take in these nutrients since…hair’s technically “dead” keratin that’s pushed out?? Avocado and honey aren’t cheap???
Hair’s kinda like a hydrated singing voice: take care of your body, and eventually your hair will benefit-hair’s kinda “low priority” in cell production and whatnot verses keeping fueled to fight off infections. And correct me if I’m wrong but…isn’t half the battle with nurturing healthy hair keeping a healthy scalp?
Tbh long hair is overrated. My hair grows fast af to the point where it's annoying and I find myself constantly cutting/trimming every few weeks trying to keep it above should length. *Your hair can not grow with split ends* Your hair needs room to breathe and absorb the products you use. It becomes really hard to manage and time consuming once it goes past my shoulders. I don't have a hair stylist. I use affordable moisturizing shampoo, conditioner, leave in, oil, and a creamy styling gel. The key to your hair growing is washing it on a regular schedule, moisturizing, detangling with a wide tooth comb, and trimming it! I have 3c4a hair and have seen many RUclipsrs do wash and gos but my hair *HATES* wash and gos. It always ends up being dry af and weird. Not to mention it takes FOREVER to do that. I just do twist outs and my curls turn out looking bomb af when they fully dry with definition. Honestly just do what works for you!! Our hair is different and what works for several women on RUclips may not work for you. I also think genetics plays a part in to. On my mom's side, the women in the family have a history of growing long thick hair quickly.
Why add egg AND mayonnaise... mayonnaise is egg and oil ...pick one. Instead of avocado just use avocado oil, this recipe is redundant.
I know people say that the protein in the mayo doesn’t help because they are to big to penetrate but i feel like it does something to cat your hair on the outside and creates some kind of barrier to prevent ir from breaking similar to how silicone based heat protectants creates a barrier for your hair when you straighten it.
That's the oil in the mayo coating, not the egg protein filling hair bonds.
I liked Cardi B's response.
My hair was too my butt growing up my grandma owned a hair salon and so did her sister so I went to them on a regular basis as a child. But my grandmas hair is too her butt and my mother and father have long thick hair as well so I guess it was a combo of genetics and how my hair was taken care of. I cut it a lot as I got older and dyed it funky colors it grows slower now that im older. But I shaved it in 2012 and now it's about 2 inches above my belly button. My goal is to have it at my butt by 2023 because it grows slower now. But i hate getting asked what im mixed with or how much my weave took etc. We can grow long beautiful hair if you're biracial or not.
there is this misconception that if you are mixed you automatically have good hair that will grow long, wrong! I am the same as cardi, my dad is from the island and my mom is from the Dominican Republic, cardi got the same type of hair texture as mine only difference is that her hair is thicker in texture than Mine, the hair in my picture is just a wig, which I love, I wish my hair was 4 type, I hate my hair, my hair texture is such a difficult hair to take care off, but one thing I can tell you is that when I was a child and my mom was the one taking care of my hair, my hair used to be long, strong and healthy, it was after I started taking care of my hair that my hair was damaged, I need to ask my mom what type of routine she used to do with my hair so that I can start doing it again, any ways the people who claim that hair of black women don't grow long are lying, in ancient times our ancestors used to have really long and strong hair reaching their butts! if they could get their hair to grow long and strong in an era that had no shampoo or conditioner what's stopping us from doing the same? if they could do it, so can we! also a tip, if you don't like the mayo you can replace it with shea butter!
I don’t have a stylist or go to the salon, I do my own hair. Idk why people put eggs/mayonnaise or any other processed food or animal products into their hair lol that’s weird. Oh and cardi still isn’t black, she even called a black woman a roach and monkey but some of y’all swear she is but look at parents chile, only two blacks can make a black child but I’ll come back when there’s comments lol.
AFRICA PROUD VILLAGE JUUUUUJUU
@@natriac.6092 lol what’s up
Ever since I started making my own hair butter my hair is growing more than it ever has! Its healthier too. So I do recommend people try making some home made products sometimes ur hair just thrives with more simple products rather than extravagant products that are riddled with preservatives
How do you make a hair butter?
@@aaliyahhughes5347 for me I mix tamunu butter, shae butter, and mango butter. You melt them in a metal bowl but don't like cook them too hot or it will lose its nutrients just melt them slowly together then add your favorite oils
I added tbs of castor oil, coconut oil, argon oils, almond oil, sun flower oil, girl every oil my hair likes
Then I use the mixer on it so it's all liquid
Then I place it in the fridge but every 15-20 mins I take it back out and keep mixing it with the mixer
After an hour or 2 you get a nice fluffy butter and fill it up in containers
It lasts me all year. It melts in contact with your warm skin and hair!
I put it on my hair my skin and it really works
I recommend checking out hair butter videos thats where I first got the idea.
I have 3c 4a hair
So I just wash My hair
Condition
Leave in
And butter while it's wet
Braid BAM
My braid outs come out juicy and my hair is shiny bouncy no oily residue it's like ur hair eats It all up.
It's not breaking or dry
I do co wash with butter and my hair is mid way my back now
Ik products dont grow ur hair but some do add protection and seal hydration that help ur hair just thrive
@@imabit2lil that’s really interesting. Thanks for all the info! My hair is a tad tighter, texture wise. Just about my entire head is 4c, and my current regimen works but sometimes I wonder if I’m being too lazy lol.
But thank you so much for all that info! I’ll have to try some variation of that sometime, since my hair is lower porosity, and I seem to have more of an issue keeping it moisturized during colder months of the year.
@@aaliyahhughes5347 anytime i hope I helped I totally understand my hair is very very dry and the winter its so bad it's like I personally feel like oil wasn't enough of a sealant my hair just suck it up
But butter is like riddled with oils and it's very creamy and for me I think even tho making the butter takes extra effort. It has made my hair routine super easier. It makes my hair like easy to stretch so my braid outs come out so bomb !
And my skin idk I have eczema like im so ashy and dry but since i use the butter after a shower I just put moisturizer on and then seal with butter on my skin and i don't feel greasy at all. Skin is soft without that heavy feeling.
I'm really happy and u can add fragrances it does not have a strong smell so u can add essential oils and smell good ! Let me know if u find any other ideas ! 💕
Please stop putting food in your hair and start using products made for your hair. There is an ebook called Wash Your Damn Hair that covers all of this.
Thank you! 🌟🌹😘💕🌟
Why not use avocado oil instead of the whole thing? Then leave out the egg and mayo, and add rosemary extract, which has been shown to work as well as Rogaine. I'm testing the rosemary oil out on my mom right now, I started adding a few drops to her conditioner and leaving it on for five minutes. I'll let you know if it works. Her hair is a little thin, so I'm hoping it fills in. I'm using it too, but my hair is already thick, so I'll see if it grows longer faster.
I usually wash my hair out swith shampoo and conditioner after Deep conditioning. Did something simular to what you did today for wash day. LOVE your vids btw. Stay blessed 😘
Love when women are happy for other women! 💕🙌🏾
My natural hair is down to my tailbone and I have not been to a hair stylist in 12 years. Stylists have damaged my hair in the past, so I just do it myself.
Ever since I came back natural, I've never went to the salon to get my hair washed, i just go to ONE braider, that's all. My hair is almost viv's length and living in a country where people like me think we can't grow hair, you can imagine the looks i get. We can grow hair, we just need to know what to do to help us grow our hair ❤️❤️
May I ask which country you are from?
Exactly all hair grows.

@@miniminott48 South Africa babe
I'm happy you started posting again....we gonna grow out our hair together 😭......I style my own hair, do braids on my own too. I have started a wig journey and I'm scared, cause like how do I moisturize between ??? Sigh....I tried the avacado diy before too....don't like how it feels,it doesn't help with volume cause my hair strands are thin. But @Viv.....please keep us posted, cause I believe my hair can grow toooo😭😭😭
I honestly don't think this is all her hair. How much you wanna bet she's coming out with a hair product soon?
I don't have a hairstylist cause i trust no one around my hair...
The exact thing happened to me when I tried this. I would strain the conditioner first so it comes out easier… but I wont try it again.
Remember God loves you🤗
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please turn your life around and repent before its too late.
I tend to use Mayo and eggs. Didn’t know about the honey or that the Mayo/egg doesn’t work as well. I’m too cheap for beer (helps get the chlorine out of my hair after swimming).
Ah yes: a beer for your hair and a beer for your mouth
I started my natural hair journey 11 years ago but I don’t consider it a true natural hair journey because I colored and bleach my hair, it would grow past my waist but I’d cut it because of damage. I recently did a big chop and I’m starting over, no heat no color.
This is all nice but I rather eat these foods and grow my hair healthy from the inside out!
I'm going to do this mask but instead of egg, I'm going to use coconut milk.
If nothing else, egg adds shine.. I never last more than 2 applications when I try DIY I'll stick to shop bought to stay consistent Lol
I go to a stylist 3 times a year for a trim and a silk press. I like my hair to be straight when it’s trimmed. I also appreciate my stylist examining my hair and accessing its condition.
She keeps her hair in wigs
Now the question is after you dried and styled your hair how did it feel and turn out ??? Love your videos Viv. Glad your back
Umm your hair looks damaged to meeeeeee
I've been following your hair journey for like 7 years. I absolutely love your personality. I remember you going from relaxed to natural and you were almost at waist length being relaxed. I haven't seen much difference in the growth of your hair for the past couple years.
