BANDING my 4C natural hair: Efficiently Natural Collab

Check out Efficiently Natural here: • 10 minute Braid Out | ...
Hey rockstars,
Efficiently Natural and I teamed up to bring you this video in which I try out her banding technique on my long 4c natural hair. Efficiently Natural takes a no-nonsense approach to her hair, which is how she's managed to retain the length she has. She's keen on stretching and this is just one of the techniques she uses to do this. Click on the link above to see her interpretation of my 10-minute braid out method!

Two of the natural hair girls I love watching doing a collaboration. Yayyyyyyy

[@cokacola123]

I use 100% silk ribbon and because it's ribbon it looks cute enough to wear out lol. I would keep it banded in two pigtails for the week and then wash. It's a very good protective style because you aren't touching your hair at all, even before bed.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Chanel Nelson this is a superb idea!!!

[@cokacola123]

:D :D xx

[@NaturallyHigh]

Hey lovelies! Please excuse the lines that appear on the screen in this video. I've tried everything to get rid of them to no avail! In this video I try out Efficiently Natural's banding technique. Hope you enjoy!

[@alisonzunguze8183]

Naturally High I thought it was part of the editing. Didn't even notice them. Its not that bad.

[@FineNaturalHairandFaith]

Love both of you ladies hair :-) The banding method works really well at stretching hair but for those of us with a slightly looser curl pattern, it can virtually eliminate curls. btw, be chatty all you like. It's your channel and people who subscribe (like me) should be doing so because they like you and your presentations. Those who don't can kick rocks

[@NaturallyHigh]

Thank you Doll! Ah, I didn't know that banding did that to looser curls. I have so much more to learn about it. I think I'll do as one commenter suggested and use ribbons instead. And thank you! I appreciate that! I want to be engaging to long time subscribers as well as first time viewers and I know that rambling can put people off so I think balance is key. I'm aiming for that instead of total scripting.

[@infinitelyblessed4812]

Check out 22nd century natural woman channel too she is great

[@LemonKinda]

I've watched so many videos I've started saying your intro with you😂😂in your accent

[@NaturallyHigh]

Aw!! That's a good reason for me to keep saying the same thing in the beginning of every video then!

[@LemonKinda]

Naturally High Definitely 😊

[@1GoldenBreeze]

Lovely style. Nice to see you, and Efficiently Natural Collab. :)

[@nightangel3578]

The French braiding the roots then banding makes so much sense. And I just love you hair!

[@wanjohnson366]

Thank you, In one night of watching your videos I'm starting to appreciate finger detangling as well as stretching my hair. Working on the length, but not losing hair due to improper techniques. Luv your spirit and energy.

[@NaturallyHigh]

I'm so pleased to hear this!

[@rasendori16]

I'm liking that acoustic Toxicity cover you used.

[@kayjay3948]

The information that you're telling us is awesome, especially with your fabulous accent.😃💖

[@inspirestrength505]

I have gotten breakage from removing my bands too so I only band my hair once in a blue moon. i am wearing twist and mini braids as a protective style. xoxo

[@jacpppp]

Wow! I do not know another black person that listens to System Of a Down. Cool!

[@NaturallyHigh]

jacpppp really? Nearly all my friends who like them are black. I went to a predominantly black secondary school in Trinidad and a large group of us were huge fans of their music.

[@Shay45]

jacpppp I'm black and I Love System of the Down ❤️😊

[@Sweetied23]

Omg! I love them. Gone to a few of their concerts. They're awesome!!

[@Superlife1369]

Yeah, I like them too...so does my brother lol

[@ShinyNachos]

💕GIRL! You like SOAD!? 💕I was already subscribed but, now you're family!!👍🏿Hair looks great even with the little bit of breakage!

[@jacpppp]

I'm the only black girl I know who even knows who they are ha. Yay that makes two of us x

[@ShinyNachos]

jacpppp We're here fam!! 🙌🏿Few and far between...We. Are. Here!😂

[@HoneybeeAwning]

I know right??? I squealed! lol

[@sophiah4315]

try out some double sided elastic from a fabric/craft store or try out out some satin ribbon. both are nicer to the strands than those elastic hair bands and they can be the length you want. i band my hair kinda like the girl you talked about in your video, those def helped.

[@Bo7bbsie]

when your comment on the previous video is shown on this video 😎😎😎 feeling cool😁

[@pammmeee9055]

If you haven't already, can you do a series/segment where you use only black-owned or diy hair care products (NOT SHEA MOISTURE). IF we don't support one another, who will??

[@Naturacleopatraa]

instantly fell in love when you said system of a down! love your hair too! subbie! :)

[@sameerasalah2006]

Ur hair is beautiful too❤️❤️😊next time try not to use elastic band...always done those breakage to my hair too...

[@NaturallyHigh]

Sameera salah thank you! I'll opt for ribbons next time! X

[@renda1472]

I absolutely love love love all of your videos! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@avaangel4ever]

You can also try ribbon elastics or even better buy a roll of ribbon and make your own.

[@jessyblake457]

I enjoyed watching your take on banding. You have such beautiful hair and spirit. Just so you know, this is not the way banding was originally done. I will do a video on banding one of these days.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Thanks for the info!

[@jrockluvernk]

As soon as I heard system of a down I started dancing lol. I currently trying the banding method. I'm going to switch to the larger ones btw your hair is beautiful

[@CheyCharvis]

Love your videos! Keep up the great work!

[@tabitha8232]

You are SO pretty omg!

[@NaturallyHigh]

Ebony 🥰🥰🥰

[@GiftsUnknown]

Love this video and beautiful hair !!

[@rais4215]

Naturally High you are doing banding but in her video she is african threading they look similar however they are different. Still love the video by the way.And if you do african threading you will not experience as much breakage or none at all.

[@Superlife1369]

Wow, you like System Of A Down? Have you heard of Tool? You should give them a listen, especially their older stuff if you are into heavier stuff. I thought I had recognized some of the songs from your different videos. Anyways, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for your video about loving the in between stages of twists. I've been doing a "process" of my own that involved heavy usage of scarves in between hairdos or just wearing my hair in a puff at the top of my head. My hair is extremely 4C (if that is a thing) and I was contemplating locs for about 2 years but I couldn't bring myself to it. Up until that video of yours, I had never heard of clumping and didn't really think of it as a style. I just did another somewhat big chop a few months back so my hair is kinda short but your methods are working on my short hair. I am looking forward to the day when my hair grows longer than my shoulders (that always seemed to be where my hair stopped growing). Anyways, I decided to go natural years ago when (because of being cheap AND lazy) I bought an expired relaxer and slathered it ALL THROUGHOUT my hair and not just the roots....well my hair fell out and I was left with a short Afro. I asked my dad what he thought about me not relaxing my hair and I was surprised by his answer...he was all for it! He always LOVED long hair and was not too happy with me when he thought I broke off all my hair on purpose when I first started combing my own hair (but I didn't know what I was doing...😂). Anyways, to wrap this up, I wish he was here to see how long my hair is going to get with your methods. I can just feel my hair growing as I write this! Your styles are so low maintenance and it would work perfectly with my lifestyle. Sorry this was so long. I don't usually comment but I felt you needed to know that you have really helped this girl with island heritage that is a first generation USA citizen who knew nothing about how to take care of my hair properly. Thanks again Asha!

[@sade6907]

Hi, since you tried the banding once in this video, have you since tried it again using the elastic? If so, did you experience the breakage you did, when you used the rubber bands? KZbin recommended this video. Although old, it came it just the right time, because I'm wearing a twist out and I need to maintain it at nights, without having to retwist my entire head of hair.

[@CreateYourBestVersion]

I use satin ribbon strips instead of the rubber bands for banding. New sub!

[@NaturallyHigh]

Great idea!

[@Tracks777]

Goob job! :) Keep it up!

[@vivililly6887]

My kid and I have 4C hair have the same problem with coconut oil on our hair, castor oil is stinky bae 😆

[@FangirlWithFro]

Its like African threading, but w/o thread 😂

[@sameerasalah2006]

Thank you for sharing ❤️

[@BanfilaBianca]

ur hair is so gud.went thru ur videos and realised smthx gud though lil strange in the natural hair community. u have Neva chopped ur hair b4.luv ur hair .

[@NaturallyHigh]

Maimobib Nkiloh hey - i cut my relaxed hair off in 2011. It took 3 years for me to reach waist length.

[@mylindabaez-moyet1843]

Love your accent, long gorgeous hair and beautiful Egyptian necklace

[@NaturallyHigh]

Thank you! The necklace is from Ghana.

[@DocDera]

Love your videos dear, from your longtime subscriber. I love the turban in your video and definitely want one like that for night time. Is it satin lined?

[@kikiJ13456]

Love the video. Its so smart, trying out the technique of different hair types.Where did you get that beautiful necklace, If you don't mind me asking?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Thanks! Efficiently Natural's hair is the same texture of mine actually. Funny story, I used to work at a bank and one day a client came in saying she had jewellery from me because I look Afrocentric. She came back a few days later with these beautiful pieces from Ghana!! :D

[@MyNaturalMyChoice]

Love your hair technique! I'm a copy cat...Lol

[@ashaphillip2868]

Your videos are very helpful....thank you 😊.....oh and we share the same name (Asha) AWESOME! Lol

[@sameerasalah2006]

Girl i have to follow you on ig...❤️❤️am missing some beautiful stuff there ❤️❤️😅

[@annvogelpohl3502]

Try double-sided elastic; craft or sewing stores should have them. You can make your own bands any length and they are much gentler on the hair: thecraftingchicks.com/how-to-make-elastic-hair-ties/

[@kayladesouza3631]

Just curious, how often do you wear your hair loose versus in a protective style?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Great question. This is usually season-dependent. If it's warm, then I wear my hair out more often (1 week/2 months). In the winter, I hardly wear it out.

[@Empress1215]

Which leave in condition er do you use

[@NaturallyHigh]

Mixtress J - Irish Moss Leave-in

[@GabbyNurse]

Have you always had long hair?

[@NaturallyHigh]

No way! It was always short when I was younger - check out my hair journey and ethnicity videos.

[@callmeswivelhips8229]

How funny, this is how I straighten my hair without heat. My hair type is a loose 2c-ish type texture.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Sensible as it does elongate the curl pattern! Good that this technique could translate to a looser hair texture. :)

[@kinawild6211]

yeo system of a down ❤

[@Theladyeve86]

I love system of a down :-)

[@Baytaylove]

❤...

[@millidw8070]

I really miss her 😿

[@NaturallyHigh]

Zameka Tanga I'm sorry! I miss you all as well but I have a lot on my plate these days, hence the lack of content. Thank you for sitting tight! X

[@millidw8070]

Naturally High Ok. I understand ❤

[@pwalker827]

hairlo! i l really like this style of video

[@saxupyourlife8607]

I love your content . If you would be so kind, can you stop calling Kemetic, Ethiopan, Hametic, Shemetic, Afrakan plaits French plaits. Europeans did not invent this hairstyle, they copied it from us. Thank you.

[@Ikkey73]

❤️️ Chatty
