I don’t know about you but I love grey hair. It’s just different and I like to be different. Do you think it’s genetics? If it is then you can’t do anything about it. The best thing about this is- embrace them😍

Some BW can grow their hair with mino twists and or braids. For me, I'm of Afro Caribbean descent- and have 4 type hair (which grows) but it has seasons when yhe growth is slow. I've had my mini twists in for about 7 weeks= 1 inch of growth. O don't wash my hair but clean my scalp weekly with aloe vera+ rubbing a part of the leaf on my scalp then down to my ends. Then i use oil, butter-hair grease to seal. Simple tings (late- mid 40's)...age is a sweet gift

Right! Mini twist and braids to help grow our hair. For me mini twists give me more tangles. My hair tends to lock up easily and I think it’s because I have fine medium density hair so it’s prone to breakage if I keep them in for longer. But for mini braids I can have them in for longer with little to no breakage. And yeah, I do the same thing. I clean my scalp by rubbing aloe Vera gel on my scalp and seal that with a butter like you see in this video or oil.

How did you wash your scalp in the mini braids? I work out 3 times a week and sweat a lot. I’m afraid the Jamaican black castor oil directly on my scalp would cause itching.

It’s easy to wash my scalp in this style so a good shampoo gets the job done though I haven’t washed my hair for a month now with this style. I also use a scalp massage to for more deep clean on my scalp. One, my scalp is not dirty despite applying this butter. Two, this castor oil pure butter hasn’t caused any build up. I was worried it would. I expected it to itch but not at all.

I use clove water after rinsing out the shampoo. I blot dry then saturate clove water on my hair and scalp before applying my deep conditioner. After rinsing out the clove and deep conditioner, my hair feels soft and strong. I don't use clove water on its own, and only at times I wash which is 2x a month. I avoid the dryness that way.

I find it quite funny that so many black women are going back to hair grease and being surprised at how great it works on their hair, especially when majority of us grew up on hair grease. Its like we have some sort of amnesia, or perhaps we were so young we didn't quite comprehend or care that it worked so well when we were children. The phrase that says "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" surely does apply here. Also it makes sense though when you stack up a product like hair grease thats likely been around for possibly 80 years verses these new products thats only been around for the last 15 years. Of course old school is going to win every time. Its a shame so many women called certain ingredients in hair grease bad without even researching what they were originally used for and why they are actually needed and beneficial. But anyway since going back to hair grease I'm not ever abandoning it again.😂😂

I almost always wear my hair loose. If I put in any braids they are usually large and not mini so maybe 2 - 4 at most and then I pin them up into a bun. The longest I leave them in is a week.

Recycling my braids boosted hair growth journey waist length to tailbone in one year. Braids help you stay consistent with your haircare routine. You tend to work smarter and not harder because you find out that simplicity is key. I wear my braids for 1 - 3 months. Your hair is beautiful. 😊

I keep mine in for two months. I also do them quite small. They last way longer, When I do them that way. I've worn Mini braids for 7 and 1/2 months of this year. I retained 3.7 inches so far. Which don't seem like much. Looking at my Ruler for measurement,I'm satisifed with it. Mini braids is the only way I've retained length.

Hey Barbara, Not sure if you do this, but if so please excuse my comment. When you take down your twists start from the very tip. If you add a little water or a product with slip to the tip to help loosen the tip it can greatly reduce tangles. I’ve recently done this and it helps ALOT. I used to undo my twists a few inches up and it caused my twists to tangle horribly and I rarely have that problem. I will also add that tangles can be caused due to shed hair working its way down. Your hair is beautiful.

I agree! I’ve been using it for some time now. I blend it and then add olive oil, avocado oil (conditioning), and then a little vitamin E. The Most High Yahuah put it on my heart to use and it’s been amazing! Using from-the-earth products is where it’s at! I would also like to take that I seal with a thick oil that’s almost like butter. My hair is doing well without using actual store “products”. 🌸

Always best to cut off all ends before using. Putting it to soak like that the yellow bitter will run into sap. Unless u cut one end and turn it upside down. But I just wash leaf and cut off ends and scrap out sap, and no darkening of the sap as I see in yours.

@@BarbaraBirungiSunflower I think that section needs to be moisturized more often than the rest, I do it 1 to 2 times per week; 4b section is fine, 4c is breaking. I had a lot of shedding in the 4c section on washday after I removed the braids, but after a strengthening ayurvedic hair mask and moisture-protein conditioner I barely had any shedding anymore. I still do not know the perfect balance between moisture and protein for my high po hair because it is also protein sensitive (becomes hard, stiff and brittle after a protein heavy treatment and stays like that for 1-2 weeks even if I moisturize heavily).
