12 tips to FASTEST WAISTLENGTH IN JUST 4 years | Exact ROUTINE STEP BY STEP

[@CoilyDiaries]

Hi guys, So a few of you are a little confused about me saying not to use heat when I preach moisturizing and opening the cuticle with heat🤔. The heat we are avoiding is direct heat. That is, blowing, curling irons, pressing irons. I still use indirect heat to deep condition and moisturize. Sorry for the confusion 😢❤

[@chiznslavi]

Can you do a demo video of washing and deep conditioning while hair is in cornrows? I’m concerned about getting the hair and scalp thoroughly clean and then properly deep conditioned without leaving product residue in the cornrows or on scalp.

[@CoilyDiaries]

@@chiznslavi my hair is in Twists now so long shot. Squeezing and diluting products to make them watery really helps with that

[@lnyawilliamsmoore]

Learned to do the cornrows for every 3 months for a year routine years ago. Tip: Wash cornrows with a wig cap on. Use the pads of fingers and the wig cap to cleanse the hair and scalp. Take wig cap off to rinse hair thoroughly. Can use a braid spray and or curl activator gel like Softee to keep hair moisturized and hydrated. Be careful with using heavy conditioners while wearing cornrows if hair is prone to build-up. Thanks for sharing (Isaiah 65:17,25)

[@CoilyDiaries]

Great tips!!!

Yes, I did this too!

This is the video that changed my hair world in less than a year. I used to have thin and same length all the time. But ever since I sticked and followed your tips I got thicker hair and it's growing and glowing. Am not yet on the waist length but am seeing a lot of changes on my hair guys. Am Soo super excited 😅😅

I did all the mistakes at the start of my hair journey. I just actively figured out my hair in early 2023 and thank God I have some hair genes 😂 Even though I've been doing rubbish to my hair in the past, my hair is midback chasing waist length at almost 5 years hair journey. My hair will be 5 in April and I even have a name for it🤣😂 Maybe I'm a weirdo but I feel incredibly connected to my hair since last year. You are beautiful ma'am and I'm your number 1 fan. God bless you❤

Love this advice i dod this without knowing and my hair grew. Then i dyed it and it dropped off but im starting again. Leaving my hair alone really helps. I also would wash it in cornrows and then take it out re plat then put on my wig. My hair grew. But dont do it too long because my hair also matted one month when i didnt wash and take out the cornrows. Phew thank god i saved it. So if i wash in cornrows i take it out and re-plat my cornrows after the wash.

Yay! Thank you!

[@iThiink]

I love watching videos of hair tips, even when 90% dont work for me. What ive found works is washing my hair with conditioner mixed with oil oncea week; then using a moisturizing lotion in my hair straight after, letting it partly airdry, then going in with a blowdryer and comb to strech it, after doing one pass with the straightener on the lowest heat, to prevent hair tangling. I finish😮 off with coconut oil all over my hair and tips, and rosemary and peppermint oil on tge roots and scalp. I maintain this by wearing my hair in a claw clip most days, and put it in two braids at night under a satin bonnet. My all i do through the week is add moisturising lotion abd oil every other day for a week till next wash day. I do a cleansing shampoo wash once a month.

[@CoilyDiaries]

Glad your routine is working for you 🌺

[@4cFinityCode]

Like you, my hair is stubborn. It took me 3 years to really understand my hair needs and a routine to stick to for growth. Using @coilydairies' advice has helped me tremendously I would love to share my routine with you, it may help

[@Cry4theSun]

“Hair growth is genetic but length retention isn’t” Yes please remind the people in the back lol.👏🏾👏🏾 I have high shrinkage, very tight coiled, delicate 4c hair. None of the women in my close family have long hair. Genetically, I don’t have any advantages to growing out my hair either. Hence why I have to aggressively protective style to retain length. I still believe it’s possible for me to grow my hair long (despite never having long hair before in my life), but I’m realizing it is definitely more work, sacrifice, and patience than other hair types. Tbh it does feel unfair because other hair types don’t have to do as much work and keep their hair hidden for extended periods, for it grow long, but it is what it is. 🤷🏾‍♀️ I’m tired of not seeing the progress I want to see, so I’m going to do what I need to do for MY hair and genetics.

[@27Elisea]

I have eczema and need to get to my scalp. I can push my wash to about two weeks. By then the itching and skin build up is unbearable. Would twist under a headband wig and co-washing the twist every 2 weeks, and then redo twist after 3 months. Would this till work? I may do single braids, no hair added since it will last longer and get less frizz. I plan to moisture every 3 days too.

hi sis, just do your best with your condition. I wouldn’t jeopardise washing if it’s recommended for eczema. results will vary but consistency will get you to your goal

Hi, new subbie here Discovered your channel about a week ago and Im currently trying to watch all your recent videos cos you really give amazing advice that have been giving me a new opinion about my natural hair ❣️ i also want to do this challenge of retaining 4-5inches per year cos I've been natural since 2020 but my hair isnt upto my chin yet :( I've confirmed that my hair does grow ½inches (sometimes less) every month however my hair breaks alot I have thin, fine, low density high porosity hair and my hair is always dry for high porosity hair that gets dry alot, would you recommend cornrows, braids or twist to start this challenge? And will you recommend i keep it for three months or less? I'm afraid I'll experience lots of breakage if i keep a style in for upto 3 months I'm trying to know my hair better this year but i don't want to have drawbacks as I've had these past years I'll keep an eye out for other of your videos Thank you for not gatekeeping what has been working for you God bless♥️

Our beautiful hair takes work but it definitely isn’t awful. It’s special. Straight hair doesn’t grow any faster, it just grows differently. It doesn’t have the blockades, like coils, to disrupt things and cut length retention if not careful. But our hair is built to grow up, not down. And it’s so worth all that we do to keep and take pride in our curly, coily textures. Bc in the past we were taught that our texture was “awful” and we needed to straighten it. But thank goodness we know now our afro texture is beautiful. The work we put into it comes from loving ourselves and loving our texture. That way people who try to tell us our texture is “awful” we know are either ignorant in the knowledge or choose to be ignorant. ❤❤

Given that, I think it will take me about 6-7 years to rea h waist-length and I am OK with that. My hair is healthy and I FINALLY have a regimen that works!!!

Lovely commentary so far, I am learning a lot from you sister thank you. For the sisters on this hair growth journey (like myself) Id like to share to remember to love it at it's short phase too... Our wooly rounded texture from a designer and artistic perspective is the most feminine of ALL because it most resembles a circle which is the most feminine shape. Other cultures their hair is straight and angular which is more masculine, again from an artistic view. Do this journey cause you WANT to have long hair not bc you have to. Loving your hair at all phases helps the growth process go faster and the hair grows more beautifully 😊 Peace!

Hi, new subscriber here. I have been binge watching your videos. Thank you so much for all the valuable information. I am a 71 yr black woman living in The Netherlands rocking a TWA (thanks to chemotherapy). My hair is growing though! Have been natural for almost 14 yrs but never got my hair past bra strap length. At the moment my hair is long enough to do finger coils. I use a mixture of a leave-in conditioner with glycerin as the third ingredient, aloe vera gel and seal with Castor oil. Today I did my finger coils on freshly washed and conditioned hair. At night I wear a bonnet. Will check the progress in 6 months time. Don’t like braids or corn rows. I will stick to finger coils and do twists when my hair is long enough. Am considering joining the length retention challenge but not sure if it will be worth it as I have a TWA. Thanks again. Love your approach on dealing with natural hair.

@@CoilyDiaries thank you so much! Didn’t expect you’d answer. I really appreciate it. Keep the videos coming!

Just for the sake of being a smart aleck…Technically, hair does grow overnight lol. As long as you are alive, and even into death, your hair is growing. It just isn’t noticeable to the naked eye 😁😁😁

[@Nanshashakadi]

My hair grows 0,8 cm per month and so four year, it is 38 cm for four years, which is 15 inches

[@CoilyDiaries]

Nice 👍🏽

[@Nanshashakadi]

@@CoilyDiaries it is too slow....I need a decade to have it on my back.

[@DudikoffVony]

thank you so much but how can I grow thicker hair? my hair is too thin the more it get inches.....

[@amalianiang8002]

instead of cornrows can I do sewin?

[@Gen1Bmw]

I'm ahead ...no tools used for hair whatsoever hydration DC monthly and topical moisturisation and finger parting and 2 strand twists constantly. 2 years later, hair growth is good . But detangling previously finger detangled hair is a challenge. My fine hair strands are increasingly getting more and more tangled every single month. I don't do wigs. I don't do added hair ever. I look better in 2 strand twists than braids. Braids look skinny I feel like a spider or octopus. At least 2 strands give me little volume on my head day to day. I'm prepared to be an octopus in braids if you insist

[@CoilyDiaries]

ahahhaha no my dear… I understand about twists. am twisted also for similar reasons. as for tangles, work in each twist thoroughly and do a few each time you feel like till your whole head is done!

[@marywaringa5261]

I will try and ill be back with results

[@barbarasullivan7106]

My Tips: Develop a routine that works for you. Keep your hair hydrated/moisturized with natural products. Use protective styles and coverings, especially during sleep. And, most important, leave it alone! The less you manipulate/heat/dye/product your hair, the healthier it stays.

Thanks for sharing!!

[@Dr_EsteeUmoh]

Thank you so much Ma'am for your lovely lessons.. How about using a steam cap for deep conditioning? Is it healthy? Thank you

[@CoilyDiaries]

it’s ok but I’d just cover the hair up

[@chipochongo]

Thanks for sharing, I think I need to get a hair diary. At times I get so busy that I forget dates such as when I did my protein treatments, when I last deep conditioned, when I installed my hairstyle (especially if I plan to keep it for a specific period of time). Thanks for these tips, feels like a collective summary of the tips you give in some of your previous videos👏🏼.
