Just to clarify, I didn’t get a relaxer, and won’t be getting a relaxer-ever lol. My “curly hair” natural hair journey is over. It’s me and my flat iron for now!
Im heat training my hair nothing wrong with it at all lol
🙌🏾
I live in Rome and in Europe and especially in the Mediterranean most black girls or European women with naturally kinky curly hair, DON'T straighten their hair. Afro hair is seen as ultra sexy here, free and earthy, goddess. The bigger and frizzier the hair the more men and women alike love stopping to tell you how gorgeous your hair is. I think America has this weird obsession with straight hair that is a Gaslighting trope. It makes us with the sexiest hair on earth, opt to un-sexy it to conform to some bland yt girl knock off. I'm Afro Cuban Puerto Rican so I've never straightened my 3 -4a ish hair. It's big and frizzy, I comb it out, not defining the curls like some 70's Brazilian revolutionary 😂 My Puerto Rican mother never straightened her 4c hair. A lot of this idea of a "journey" to "accept" what your lucky to be born with, is CULTURAL. Living in a yt supemacist Gaslighting machine that shows us Lindsey Logan as beautiful growing up, I get the brainwashing. I'm from the Bronx and in my home it was Cuba. I thought Lindsay was bland and had NO "tumbao" African sexiness. Our hair is a part of our Tumbao. Now living in Rome I watch America as an odd curiosity.
@@libfuzzy4629 heat training doesn’t exist, you’re just damaging your hair.
I’m also heat trained love it 🥰
I actually went relaxed a year ago so my natural journey is over over! Lol. I just think everyone is coming to a point where they are doing what’s best for their hair, and sticking to what looks good on them and works for their lifestyle. And I love that.
I went back to relaxers too! I didnt completely get rid of my curls but i went from type 4 to type 3 and i love it.
Sell outs!!!
This is exactly how I feel! I’ve worked hard to get my natural hair bra strap length these past 4 years! I’m ready to enjoy silk presses and swing my hair back and forth! I deserve 💁🏽♀️
I’m over the natural hair journey. It’s too much work. Now I alternate between roller sets and silks presses. Suddenly there is no more breakage lmao.
Kinda late on this but when I switch from having my Afro hair to straightening my hair I experienced less shedding and less breakage too
I grew exhausted stressing over buying hair products, my hair coming out the way I want one day then the next it looks horrible, time consuming wash days, and the whole headache of dealing with hair. I'm busy these days and don't have time to sit in the mirror for hours twisting my hair and taking out the twists to go to an event or work. I have heat damage on the front part of my hair as well but it's my own mistakes from excessive heat. However, I've been enjoying my straight hair sew-ins with a leave-out. I feel less stressed to keep my hair looking a certain way.
I have felt the same way about my hair. I’m currently wearing it straight and I don’t care about heat damage, curls…nothinggggg! lol
I understand!!
Lol, "I don't really care about the heat damage!" Now that is called fed up! 😂 Honey there are no hair rules! Good luck! ❤️🙏
You have every right to change your mind. Welcome back to the straight natural hood, lol. What's funny is while you think protective styles are annoying, I love it for the convenience and hair growth and think curly hair is annoying cuz I think its waaaaayyyy too much work. To each her own! 😊 I love your videos.
Thank you!😅
I def feel you on the braids! I am not a fan of those braids on myself either they give me bumps in the back as well. And i def feel you on the “if the front ain’t cute just forget the whole style” being natural is hard and requires work! Lol a lot of women are actually going back to relaxers from what I’ve seen. BTW - youre beautiful as always!🤎
I did the same thing this past February! I’ve just grown so tired of doing my hair! Still scared of getting a relaxer though so my flat iron has been my bestie 😭
I get it!!
I feel the same way about my hair journey being natural. I decided to wear my natural hair straight. I love the curly look but it was definitely high maintenance. Thank you for your video and your transparency. Your hair is gorgeous.
I went back to being a straight hair natural too, I'm so over natural hair and need something simple
I hear you. I don’t wear wigs and braids and I’m over the constant setting of my hair to get it my curls popping. Transitioning to straight hair natural
Looks Beautiful! You have to do what is best/feels right for you and your hair emphasis on you and your! When I was a loose natural I wore my hair blown out & flat ironed for a year and that worked for me in that time.
Good for you! I've also made the decision to become a straight natural. I'm done with extension braids and the haphazard singles with my own hair. It is super manageable now and it shows its length! 💖💗💞
I took my braids out last month and felt overwhelmed & ending up relaxing after 6 years. I’m going to transition back but didn’t want to big chop. I should’ve just took your route and flat-ironed it. Love the curly & straight look on you!
ETA: How’s the baby?
Damn, already? 😂 I’m also over my natural hair but I’m doing protective styles with silk presses in between to grow it long before I decide to become a straight hair natural.
I want to become a straight hair natural but I work out and I can't deal with the puffy roots and constant blowdrying to get them straight when it's time to look cute. relaxer is calling my name
I wore my hair straight until it hit collarbone length, then went natural and never looked back!
I’m literally thinking about being a straight natural too…I’m allergic to synthetic hair so I can’t do braids at all
You… are in my head. What you said is everything that happened to me , down the UFD gel. I had a bit of breakage in the back and this supposed curly salon senior curl expert cut my hair while it was in a wash and go. After I told him I never wore it like that. Came out looking a hot mess with uneven chunk and a curly mullet. I’m still recovering and I absolutely hate the way it look, even after another salon tried to fix it. I’m done!
Black Girl Curl's training course for stylists is called Cut It Kinky. The moment you said the cut looked too perfect and that it was "too short in the back", I initially thought "it must have been a CIK stylist" and I was right lol. They really like a sharp defined shape, and from what I've seen they like for the cut on tighter curls to be shorter at the bottom and longer at the top unless the hair is a certain length. I think they say this is because the length for tightly curly hair isn't at the base like it is in straight hair or looser curls, it's in the top layers because our hair grows out in a 3D shape. I like the techniques they have when it comes to wash and gos & twist outs, but I don't necessarily like the results of the cuts, though I understand why they do them this way from their perspective. This is just what I've noticed. I wish you the best of luck with your hair journey.
Thank you for your comment! Not sure how there’s not length at the bottom because um, that’s still important too lol. I do think they have some good information that can work for people. Just wasn’t my thing!
All of their cuts look like huge triangles on people's heads. It's ugly, imo.
@@cfoster6804 Yeah I’m not a fan of it either.
This is exactly why I won't get that cut. They give everyone the same grandma cut
I think your hair is beautifully straight and curly.
You’re so sweet!
Literally feeling the same way! Im over wearing my hair in its natural state
It’s work!
I literally can’t do protective styles etc it itches so bad so my flat iron is also my friends. Hair is still healthy and growing ♥️
Yeah I wish I could 🥲
Mine don't itch. You need to detox your scalp monthly other wise that hidden fungus shows up when you do protective styles.
My stylist does like two rows of singles in the back when it comes to her feed ins
I think it depends on the style you want. I wanted just straight backs 🙂
I'm about to relax my hair too:)
Oh I didn’t get a relaxer! Just straightening it!
I like to wear my real hair
You go girl
I know that's right 👏👏👏💯🤗
May i ask what products you used to create a more fluffy wash and go?? I kind of felt like my hair was flat and lacked volume with the bcg recommended products.
Sure! My go to combos are either the kinky curly knot today leave in + curly magic + mousse def foam or the kinky curly leave in + Camille rose curl maker 🙂
Hey! How are you liking your straight natural hair a year later? 😊
Lol great question! Check out my “how curly cuts and wash n goes damaged my hair” video. I go into details about how I’ve been wearing my hair the last couple years up till now 🙂
When getting them done as you feel a tug you tell her!
I expressed multiple times throughout the appointment 🙂
@@nicolelise I’m so sorry!,that happened to me before!,ri removed them the same night!
You don’t want to get traction alopecia
I sure don’t.
Do you workout?
Yes🙂
@@nicolelise Can you do a video on how you keep your hair straight when you workout?
I honestly haven’t been working out as much since being pregnant, but I just use two clips to pull it up off my neck. And if any pieces are in the front, I use a Bobby pin so they aren’t falling in my face.
@@nicolelise thank you!
That's your business do you. I find mostly type 4 a/b/c is going back to flat irons and relaxers mostly because they didn't get that desired hair type they wanted. People have to do what works best for them being natural isn't difficult and you don't need million of products and 6hour wash days to do it., also you don't need to have your hair in a protective style daily. It's the people who make it hard. People have to so what's best for them tho
I actually love my hair type. Never said anything remotely close to what you’re suggesting. Never said I have a 6 hour wash day either. Must didn’t watch the video 🙂
How do you say, “That’s your business do you” but then proceed to do exactly what we be talking about that goes on the natural hair community. Pretty much insinuating she doesn’t like her curl pattern because she prefers her hair to be straight
