I tried to share this before but not sure I was successful Here's a short video on hair density from a black, female chemist (Tonya Lane) kzbin.info/www/bejne/roTOi4iEgrCpgq8si=3QlKvs42uCMyN5Kq

[@GlamorousKiema.]

I NEVER STOPPED LOOKING AT YOUR OLD VIDEOS!! I always go back for reference and motivation.

[@KM-oy5yh]

AMEN AMEN, Sister, Me either 🎉

[@soriyazz]

Sis. My hair started literally FALLING out like crazy in 2020. Long story short I was Vitamin D deficient. I've been on vitamin D3 and vitamin B complex. I was constantly exhausted to the point that I had to cut back days of work.. My hair is growing back healthy & long again and full. It was terrible . Hair wld be on the shower walls If I touched it 50 times hair came out 50 times

[@ulovemegz]

Yesss I can totally relate. My hair and health were doing the same exact thing. Like you, there would be days when I couldn't get out of bed from exhaustion. I started with D3 too and definitely seen results and now I'm on Geritol and WOAH it works. Thank you so much for sharing that I'm not alone in this struggle! Sending huge hugs.

[@nstiNctiVnatur]

I can relate 🫂 glad you’re both back on track. 🌹

​@@ulovemegz you as well luv!!

[@soriyazz]

​@@nstiNctiVnaturThank you sis. Hope your journey gets results as well.

[@Moriri_By_TshepiB]

I had the same experience

[@LilTikers]

Yes Meg let’s take it back because the old routine/products helped my hair starting back in 2010 watching you. Then I started using other products or distracted from my routine (neglecting my hair) and my hair haven’t been that healthy since. Let’s take it back to the VO5/ORS days😂😂😂 challenge accepted

[@nellyyyss]

I’m about to go relaxed and I’m sooo glad I found your channel

[@KM-oy5yh]

AMEN AMEN, I just got my hair professionally #relaxed early this morning after #18 weeks of #New growth n I'm Loving the #FRESHNESS n #SMOOTHNESS, LOL 😅

[@vastya.3255]

Hi megz , I have been natural for 7 years and you’re actually one of the first relaxed/naturals that I started following from when I was 11 (I am turning 21 next month!) , through trial and error, being redirected by the community at least a 57 times 😂 I have found that simplicity is absolutely key, I had your exact problems but with natural hair. I chopped off my hair 3 times after having grown my choppy 4c hair to my mid back, I was proud but not satisfied because as you say, our roots look promising and there’s no problem with length but the density just isn’t there. After following the no oil / no butter and turning to becoming a blow dried natural as a last resort, I actually l learnt about the integrity of hair. Meaning, that after all those years, paying attention to detail and everything, I was STILL unintentionally breaking my hair, leaving my roots normal and my length compromised. I fixed my deficiencies throughout the years but my hair wasn’t improving until I understood, growing denser hair that has a consistent density from root to tip , is about maintaining the integrity of the hair. Now my hair is turning into the hair of my dreams, of which I always seen the roots to have this potential, it was just an obstacle of understanding. Hair needs hydration and moisture, the hydration on wash day is enough to last at least a week if you seal it in properly with a lipid rich substance (butters, grease, oils) , then just put it in some plaits, focusing extra butter/grease on the ends to ensure ends don’t tangle. Some grease on the scalp that will trickle down the strands throughout the week to relubricate. This was the routine most of us (well not me) had as a kid and had flourishing plaits. This type of hair care, oils/butter/grease + plaits is / was found in all cultures, wether it was Victorian women with greasy plaits and updos, Indians heavily oiling and massaging, then plaiting the hair, Ethiopians smothering their hair in butter and wearing plaits, or the now popular Chadian women with greased up plaits, Ghanaians and Nigerians with Shea butter and threading/braids etc , the next important factor is time. Leave hair as is until it is wash day again to get your hair back up at 100% moisture and 100% hydration :) My new growth has been shooting out the past 6 months and my dyed hair is rapidly elongating and becoming darker after this epiphany, I allow my hair to be now, I went from weekly washing to every 2-3 weeks. You’re in the right direction 🩷

[@ulovemegz]

Nice! So glad you found what works best for you to get the best results!!!!

[@MzAbstractMind]

Girl, I started going back to your old videos and others a while ago 😂. That old school YT, back to basics 😂 It crazy that sooo many of us are experiencing/experienced the same hair issues, starting around the same time 😳 The comments are so helpful b/c I didn’t even consider me stopping my daily vitamins pairs up with the massive shedding 😩 requesting bloodwork on my annual visit.

[@ulovemegz]

Yesss many of us also experienced covid shed/hair loss too! My density plunged after my first round of covid so I think we're all trying to build everything back

[@Aleciaism]

I remember starting my relaxed hairgrowth journey with your 2012 routine... it worked so well for me.

[@lakevahaymon6974]

Me too and here I am back , I need to get my hair back in shape again, she helped me so much in 2012/2013 now im back to my OG girl

[@stephanierembert6221]

I want my hair density to improve. I am getting growth, but lacking in density. I will take density over growth right now. I am natural but i still follow you megz. Been watching you for over a decade now. Whether you are relaxed and when you were even natural. Please keep posting your every move about your hair density journey and tips. Thank You So Much for Posting this !!!

[@ulovemegz]

Thank you sooo much! We're going to get back there 🤗

[@patriciaxomakeup5433]

I followed this exact routine from your videos in 2013 and my hair was the healthiest it had ever been! My mom always thought I was doing too much until she saw my results. I’m going to start again now that I’ve been relaxed for a year again.

[@ulovemegz]

Yesss! I used to get so much push back from family and still do! They go from "You're doing your hair AGAIN?" to "How did you get your hair so healthy!" ITS work that WORKS LOL.

[@amberbug90]

I love how silly u r. Im transitioning from a hair set back also. Keep being consistent Megz. I like your content 🥰 Happy Black History Month

Aw, thank you so much, and Happy Black History Month!!!

Girl, I literally was just watching some of your older videos as well. Reeventing the wheel isn’t always necessary

[@ulovemegz]

Thank youuu! Yesss just going back to basics always worked.

[@KM-oy5yh]

AMEN AMEN,,SISTER, Me 2 n The ones with #Ashley in them..#MEMORIES 🎉

[@peggyjoseph6465]

Thank you so much for the detailed video. My hair is so dry and brittle, and I started using grease and oil mixture. It's helping with the shedding. You're right.....don't allow your hair to get that way. Prevention is key😊😊😊 Also, I too, have started deep conditioning my hair with heat and adding oils it really makes a difference.

[@ulovemegz]

Yesss having a good routine that works for your hair is key!

[@ThePrettiestCommenter]

I am so happy you and your hair are doing better!!! I’m praying that God will restore you and your hair 100% Meg❤ Keep going girl!!

[@ulovemegz]

Thank you so much!!

[@TransitioningBeauty]

Perfect timing! I just did a search for your old videos because I'm considering texturizing again. Your hair THRIVED relaxed

[@0tismadaline]

Definitely a healthy wash day routine sweetheart, doing what works for your hair is a must 👌 😍

[@ulovemegz]

Thank you so muchhhh!

[@AbsoluteMdot]

I recently had a set back because my stylist was no listening to me. She has tried products on my hair that don't mesh well on my relaxed hair. And also kept choosing not to relax the font part of my hair because she felt like it did not need it. Well because of the 2 different textures I had breakage on the area. I tried to hard to make it smooth so it meshed well with my relaxed hair. if she just would have relaxed it I would not have had that problem. Needless to say after all these years I may need to find a new stylist.

[@brooklynbabe6613]

Every time i think about a hair routine i always think about you even with all these other people on here u always come to mind

[@kalishajnz]

Using heat with my deep conditioner is something I want to get back to. I don't use too many drugstore products, but the ors replenishing and any of the aunt jackies deep conditioners are staples. I feel like as my hair grew out, I was getting more under processed with self relaxing so returning to the salon has been a game changer for me. I think your new routine is going to be great for you. Btw, if you hadn't announced that the video in the beginning was from 2013, I would've thought it was just you in current day wearing clip-ins, lol. You look amazing!! 💜

[@ulovemegz]

Aw thank you! Yessss salon assistance is such a luxury and a necessity and I think I'm going to have to do the same in the near future! 🤗

[@shaneetajames6782]

In most cases, the reason why women lose an excessive amount of hair could also be the pre-menopause/menopause stage. The best vitamins that would help that is a vitamin called Nutrofol, estroven supplements, Ritual vitamins, Centrum for women, or One a day. Nutrofol and Ritual, you would have to order it online. Estroven or Amberen supplements would be in local drug stores like Duane Reade, CVS, Rite Aid, etc. I am a pharmacy technician in New York and certified, I use to work at Rite Aid Pharmacy. I hope this helps ladies.

[@IAmPhasion]

I’m going to look into these thank you so much

[@NatrulyMarge]

Girl I love watching you hair routine videos. So informative.

[@joycajet]

I forgot about rose water. It's really good. Im taking my vits and have seen improvement since being more consistent. Your hair is looking good Megz ❤

[@ulovemegz]

Thank youuu! I'm getting there with ya! 🤗

[@JessicaDessus]

I’ve been following you for so long girl I feel like I’ve grown up with you and your hair looks great. I miss your voice it’s been a while since I’ve watched videos And happy to be back.

[@ulovemegz]

Thank you so much! I and my hair was going through it for a year and a half and I'm so happy to be back here doing what I love and being here with everyone 🤗

[@sapphirehaircare]

Now that's the way to go! I love using heat when deep conditioning. Keep up the healthy routine, Megz. It looks good. Thank you ever so kindly for sharing this God-Bless you 🪷 ❤

[@ulovemegz]

Thank yooou for watchinggg!

[@Daisy-w4e]

I personally feel like my hair grows better and more when relaxed, as opposed to natural. Its more fragile natural, go figure, lol.

[@KM-oy5yh]

AMEN AMEN, Me 2, Sister 🎉

[@petrulafranco]

Same for me I thought was only me

[@himynameiscandle7002]

Me tooo

[@melh4233]

Same!

[@beeznhoney4323]

Same! As a 4c natural, I was gentle and did my best to care for my hair but the knots and breakage was always crazy. I relaxed during the CV shut down and my hair has done very well, its thick & thriving🌱 Also, I still avoid heat, tension, etc and do the things a natural does. Last, I was iron deficient, added biotin, iron and water my hair more. All has been well.

[@Smyrna37]

Nice idea with the applicator brush... im going to start doing this❤

[@myrnaj4502]

Yes, I love your routine. I'll definitely be sharing it.❤

[@ulovemegz]

Thank youuu! 🤗

[@gracieanduze1171]

Very good content, your regimen reminds me so much of my own with the co-wash, DC, and wash day routine...when you did a 2 strand twist then twisted it up which is exactly what I do I knew that I'm moving in the right direction with my hair journey; we will journey-on together LOL Thanks for sharing!

[@ulovemegz]

Yesss we’re doing thissss together 🙏🏾

[@tywanbrown3034]

Hey Megz, Thanks for sharing girl. Your hair is coming along nicely. Right now I’m trying to rebuild my hair again. Like you I never had a problem with length especially in the back but my front always needed a little more TLC 😊and right at the crown (or my mother use to say back in the day you Soft Spot). I transitioned and did a chop to natural back in 2014 so it will be 10yrs this October 30th. My hair flourished once I got my routine together and grew as normal. Then I had a small set back in 2018 then did fine up until somewhere in 2022 (Life was Life-in 😅) and I began blowing my hair out, wearing braids ect.. and now I here 🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️So I’ve too been reverting back to older methods and I’m slowly (key word Slowly) lol coming along but it’s gonna be a longer road and not to mention I’m older too LMBOOOO so my hair and texture is different.. WHEW that was a lot lol.. Thanks again for sharing 💞

[@leslieann2698]

Hey! You should try mega food blood builders for iron, I took them for years because I was iron deficient. They do not make you sick or upset the stomach.

[@ulovemegz]

I may be switching because I've noticed the Geritol has been upsetting my stomach.

[@jamaican0721]

Anytime you're doing anything chemically to you’re hair you definitely need to deep condition more often than someone with virgin hair. Thats why it works for you & your hair loves the extra tlc. You're doing right. sometimes people compare apples to oranges

[@DetroitSoul-bw6ew]

Hi...I'm a loooonnnggg time subscriber😊...where did you purchase your oils? Looking for quality oils

[@seatedinhim]

My hair is very long, but I noticed that it sheds alot and just will not get to that luster I had in high school when I use to watch you back in the day. I think all of our problem is we strayed away from that old school thing - the grease, the simple shampoo and conditioner. Even more heat was good for us. Kept the tangles away. We all tried to go natural, use less heat, and skip the mineral oils and parabens - things that in a real way worked for us. We ALSO aren't eating what's in our parents house anymore. Back then - I ate breakfast lunch and dinner and had more meat. For years now, I've been intermittent fasting, disordered eating, eating once a day ect. We need go back to "mama and daddy" meals, and that good reliable sleep schedule and that old pink moisture and ors products.... we were all fixing what wasn't broken. Listening to others and not staying in our own lane

[@seatedinhim]

Also, I noticed from myself that alot of thoes raw ingredients like castor oil, coconut oil, olive oil, rosemary oil, pepermint oil are tooooo harsh unless they are chemically blended in a lab. They aren't good unless they are going to be washed out after 15 min - 1hour. Also we have gotten so use to extension we want our natural hair to be as thick as a 3 pack of bundle bust down and that isn't going to happen. Natural thickness or just fine hair is OK too. We need to remember that and thoes good old Lotta Body roller sets.

[@traceylennon1204]

Great comment!!

[@forisadora7480]

I second the diet part. I eat so inconsistently as an adult even though my kids are in a schedule lol. Makes no sense but somehow as an adult there are so many other things to get done except sit down and enjoy a meal, seems too indulgent lol. Mind shift for me in 2024. Back to the basics oh and back to relaxer tomorrow.

[@Legacy_125]

I don’t have a hooded bonnet. I use a cordless microwave heat cap.

[@ulovemegz]

That works great also.

[@feliciaward1164]

I have the same issue as you. My hair is fuller on top ,but the ends are thinned out. The density has changed. I am doing protein treatments as well and keeping hair moisturized and sealed.

[@ulovemegz]

Yes the Geritol is definitely helping me grow out the less healthy hair. I'll be cutting off the thin ends next month.

[@ced8903]

folks we have to be honest we know the reason for this. The top is natural healthy hair and the ends are thin, over processed and relaxed. No amount of protein treatments will change the hairs density as it has been chemically altered and damaged. Lets be real please.

[@ulovemegz]

@@ced8903 yes the previous hair is definitely unhealthy but I've fixed my hair numerous times over the years from being thin and overprocessed with this exact routine! It just takes time consistency and patience to have healthy hair whether someone chooses to relax their hair or be natural. It ALL takes work.

[@ced8903]

The science is clear. You cannot actually reverse or fix hair damage, you have to just grow it out and deal with breakage as to not let the hair continue to break up the shaft. The only “healthy” hair will be the virgin hair that grows from your scalp. Black hair is prone to breakage and weakening it with chemical relaxer results in the thinning and “string” look that we all are used to. Unfortunately this is the reality. Chemically relaxing hair comes at a price which is unfortunate because I know it can be “easier to deal with” or we prefer the look of straight hair but this is again the science. I would suggest stretching relaxers and also protective styles but that is the best we can do.

[@ulovemegz]

@@ced8903 Yes, that's why a consistent routine is necessary. Everything you mentioned I discussed in this video and in many other videos here on my channel for many years. Gaining hair health is very possible while relaxed with the proper routine recovery care if some does choose to relax. It will not be fixed overnight, but with consistency and new growth over time, the results will show with the proper routine, and that's what I'm doing and being transparent to share with viewers who are experiencing the same! We all have to START somewhere. I'm just here to help and keep a positive outlook while sharing what always has worked. 🤗

[@amian-emile5320]

I'm not sure if all of these steps can be done depending on someones schedule but I think as along as you wash, condition once a week and keep it moisturized throughout the week you should be good.

[@deannatejada]

I recommend not using Bobby pins on fine hair. It'll break off some of the hair here and there overtime. With ur bantu knots try and switch over to a small satin scrunchie. And i recommend not rubbing your hair during the shampoo process and even when u apply products. Ur gonna get ur hair to where u want. I believe u will. Ur not playing this time around haha

Hello megs I have a honest question for you , so I been relaxed since I was middle school age I found a routine that worked for me however, I wanted to ask what u think about the heath problem , people mention som have gotten uterus and cervix cancer from relaxers , do this worry u , or do u use a relaxer that has less harsh chemical , jst an honest question bc it scares me to want to go natural but my life so busy relax hair jst been easier.

Could the issue with the sides be the ponytail? The ends of the sides are probably being rubbed too much by the ponytail holder.

The front has always been the weakest and takes the longest to respond for me. I don't wear ponytails very often but being iron deficient, poor diet, stress and not consistent with haircare will do it for me. I've experienced this many times and always recover.

[@tmcurly]

What you recovering from again sis? Have you ever considered being a flat iron natural? You will maintain the integrity of your hair?

[@ulovemegz]

I tried it and it wasn't for me but maybe in the future. I found out I'm severely iron deficient

[@simonestephenson391]

How many D3 were you taking?

[@ulovemegz]

I need to go back and reference what my dosage was before starting Geritol

[@KM-oy5yh]

[@shalove1505]

[@HavInspires]

Geritol is the 🐐.

[@ulovemegz]

For reaaaal! I'm blown away honestly! My new growth hasn't been this thick in YEARS!!!

[@mywholesomelifestyle5026]

I read somewhere relaxers are being banned in the USA, is it true?

[@WhatTheKink]

No. Straighteners containing formaldehyde are being banned. Relaxers don’t have formaldehyde.

Is this magic? You had a bob a few days ago

[@ulovemegz]

I've had a few chops within the past year lol

I want to relax my hair, but I have fibroids, and kept hearing it is cause by relaxers here on KZbin 😩I was so disappointed to hear that, as I always had relaxers, in the past and loved it, I am natural for about 8 years now, but I went natural for a change back then, but now I am hesitant to relax

[@ulovemegz]

Heeey thank you for sharing. I've been hearing the same also, I have friends and family members who have never had relaxers and had fibroids, so it's hard to pinpoint what exactly causes them, in my opinion, and conversations with a few doctors I've had. I think it's the hormones and GMOs in our processed foods and birth control, etc, but I don't think anyone really really knows what the exact cause is.

[@superwomanme]

I don't believe the relaxer and fibroid link. My mom and sister are natural and suffer from fibroid and cysts respectively while I am fully relaxed for many many many years and have none. I know many others just like this

[@tmcurly]

Get a silk press every month or learn to silk press yourself. Why not wear the hair flat ironed 100% of the time instead of relaxer were you start dealing with excess shedding ? 😓
