CLUMP MAINTENANCE | THE LAZIEST MOST MINIMALIST NATURAL HAIR STRETCHING ROUTINE

[@dawn123ish]

4c hair icon right here!!

[@NaturallyHigh]

Awww 🥰 I’m honoured! Thank you!

[@FromAto4z]

"Avoiding striving for perfection, instead aiming for satisfaction is how I've managed to retain length." That summed it all up! If you don't know, now you know... Great video!

[@AmazonEstherIbia]

Very true. I heard that too

[@TheRaveMill]

For sure!!! Her and green beauty!

[@Prov31Beauty-Seeinglassfull]

Is this the night routine and done every night?

[@conniegrant2002]

Òò😅òo

[@saltoftheearth8533]

Wow so pretty. Looks like loc'ed hair. I like that look of loc'ed hair without actually loc'ed hair.

[@NaturallyHigh]

OnTheWaySomeWhere s thank you! I love locs too but would miss having big hair every so often. I wouldn’t miss detangling though.

[@bookaholicSimi]

Me too! That's what got me to click on the video 🥰

[@jamilavibar9698]

It is my opinion that these very good quality Type 4C Hair videos (made by people with Type 4C Hair like yours) highly represents what ALL people with Type 4 Hair goes through with keeping a styled look by preventing knots and tangles. This applies to myself and all of those with Type 4 Hair (yes, including with myself being one with Type 4A Hair). I used to follow some of these techniques as a child for I had very little tools, supplies, and assistance in doing my own hair so it would get extra dry and coarse. This is quintessential knowledge and a guide of reference (for us all who possesses Type 4 Hair) to having healthy hair.

[@user-zu9cw2xq7f]

I thought you had dreads at first! Sooooo thick and beautiful! ❤️

[@pinky15ification]

I find it so cool that your hair looks like Marley hair

[@NaturallyHigh]

Aw thank you!

[@indriadrayton1132]

When I delay detangling my hair too long, I get locs in training! My hair will loc for no reason at all. Be careful with delays. Plus, if you have rugged 4c hair like mine, thoroughly wet your hair, then seal with oils like avocado and then castor, not always coconut oil.

[@RozeBeauty318]

Delayed detangling is the best. Literally just took out my box braids and didn't finish until I nighttime. Instead of lazily detailing and risk damaging my hair, I did a low manipulation style and will save my detangling until wash day. Also, you really helped me understand my shed hair better in this video. I had so many straggly ends when I took my 3 month old braids down but it makes so much since if the shed hair didn't have anywhere to go for months. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@NaturallyUnbothered]

I just came here to admire the hair 😍😍😍

[@kibbi4india7]

Thank you for this video. I’ve tried this on my girls and it works just as you described. It’s has been a life saver!

[@NaturallyHigh]

Yaaaaaaaay! This is brilliant to read! Well done, parent!

[@shaquaejackins8491]

This video!!!👏👏👏👏 Absolute great content.🧡🧡🧡🧡 Talking over and live talking are both great. My hair also does that dangle-y thing at the ends.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Shaquae Jackins thank you very much for your feedback. I’m pleased to hear that! 😘

[@NougaMiel]

It look like I might have found my hair twin, now I have a clear sight of what I should do to achieve my goal :) awesome video

[@dianncotterell5531]

I love your channel content. I'm happy to see someone on you tube with similar hair to mine.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Diann Cotterell happy to provide some representation.

[@KurlyKin]

I always prolong detangling my hair 😂🤦🏾‍♀️

[@psalmsofafuwa]

Hahah story of my life!

[@cireeternale5176]

Yes, I've come to look and feel for those danglers

[@FEMININEINFLUENCE]

I like the voiceover! I helps me stay on track/ focused

[@scorpionattitude]

This is neat! My clumps would be locs by day 3 though lol. But a twistout could last half a week without turning into this and with no maintenance or scarves..Just way too thick to try this method but it looks beautiful smh. Wonderful video!! Thanks for keeping us informed 😁

[@briannahdesiree]

As I watch more of your videos, it makes me so proud of myself bc I learned a lot of what your sharing on my own with a similar mindset even while facing texturism(even in my family lol).

[@vonshall2763]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I like both your live talking and voice over. I watch hair videos to see people handle their hair and it seems a lot of people cut a lot of that out. Awesome awesome video.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Pleased to hear that you like to see the raw messy handling that normally ends up as discarded footage. Thanks for dropping a comment! 😘😘😘

[@KingChameleonsEye]

Lol that Hair Whipping YASSS 🔥💯✊🏾

[@247kingdomwoman]

I do this and I didn’t even know this was the or a thing to do!!! I am like u... I don’t like doing my hair and a lot manipulation. Beautiful, u and your hair. God Bless!!

[@havathesun321]

Damn your hair is all my hair goals in the whole world!

[@naturalhairssentials2407]

I think I prefer the voice over but ur live talking is also great and it comes in handy..

[@indriadrayton1132]

Dangling ends litter my blankets. If I delay detangling, I get some unexpected loc wannabes! I have to detangle my twists or I say hello to locs.

[@CurlyGirlLife1]

I totally agree with prolonged detangling..I only detangle a little before and after I wash my hair. Love your hair btw

[@FineNaturalHairandFaith]

I love love love your accent and your hair :)

[@jtorie1]

I love your hair!!! The style and texture so reminds me of the Quann Z twins.

[@mightygoodmagic]

Ok, I LOVE THIS!!! I'm not so great at the French braid simply bcuz it's not my go-to. However, my hair is so freaking long and I'm needing to have a quick night time routine to adjust to having thick, long hair. I used to do super-micro twists for years, and now I'm actually also going to try doing thicker twists like you're doing, to be more casual with my styles (doing my own hyper-micro twists is a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng process!). Thanks so much. Love your channel and IG. :-)

[@cheyenne432]

Thanks great tips I can’t wait to implement this into my routine it’s gonna be changing not splitting the twist out when taking them apart. how many of you can undo your twist and not separate them just wondering I like to separate them for additional volume makes the fro look slightly bigger👩🏾‍🦱

[@hyrunnisa997]

I didnt know those were shed hairs...I just thought my hair was breaking.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Probably not! 😘

[@Imaraabeson]

Me too lol

[@HealthyFoodBae_]

Can u show us ur updated detangle session please? u mentioned in your older video (the wash and go detangle vid) how detangling is much easier for you now. thank u great vid!

[@nattylew5058]

I have 4c hair and for some reason my hair doesn't stay clumped when I undo the corkscrews (2 strand twists). Apparently it loves itself too much lol. I've started plaiting my hair now and thankfully that seems to be working for me

[@lexbeau1632]

Thanks for explaining. I get it much better now!

[@chundabrantley2640]

Love your texture and job well done!

[@yahs1989]

Love your channel! What should you do when you pull those long hanging shed hairs and they are already tied onto other strands of hair?

[@NaturallyHigh]

yahs1989 you might want to trim them.

[@krieshathompson5915]

Live !! I definitely love your accent and play by play

[@CreateYourBestVersion]

...luv ur accent and music bomb💕 beautiful hair hun💯 where can I find that song?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Nykia Rodriguez the song is called Indigo Blue by Nadine. You can find it on Soundcloud.

[@Thoughtsbyme-ts4jz]

I prefer the live version to the voice over. However, both are good

[@st_vey]

your accent gives me goosebumps

I like both, but i prefer voiceover

[@minim.u.i.2443]

Love the video do you do this routine every night?

[@Doc_McStuffins]

Thumbs up before watching...

[@theamethyst93]

Gorgeous hair

[@iAmaze87]

No daily detangling. I’ll try for weekly detangling but I need stretch more for less loss. These tendrils look like loose locs and I like but some ppl like to look so neat a d straightish.

[@ميرفتاويس]

I just like watching 4c hair videos even though I don't have 4c hair 🙂

What a pleasure to see you again and I really like you hair

[@fyjjkj]

I really like your videos and I love that style of bonnet/turban. Do you have a link for it? Also, a combination of voice over and live is my personal favorite!

[@amoryll36]

OMG you have about 10 ppl hair right there 😯💣💣💣💣🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 😍

[@Prov31Beauty-Seeinglassfull]

Thanks for sharing! This is what I wish I'd known when I first tried WaterOnlyHairWashing - hope to again later by Gods grace. The twists won't unfurl. You re LP I think? but am HP, so if I try doing as you with my shorter hair, I will have to still braid near the tips, Iand otherwise, Id do loose braids if not loose-twists. We'll see.

[@keepingitrealnaturalist5472]

Your hair is so gorgeous and shiny. I think mine lacks shine.

[@NaturallyHigh]

KeepingItReal Naturalist thank you! My hair is not naturally shiny. The shine comes from the leave-in and castor oil.

[@keepingitrealnaturalist5472]

@@NaturallyHigh what leave-in do you use?

[@NaturallyHigh]

KeepingItReal Naturalist Irish Moss Leave-In by Mixtress J. You can find her on Instagram/Facebook.

[@valeriesignaturesalon]

Thank you Naturally High. When you order the Irish Moss leave-in Does it take a long time for you to receive your order? I leave in North America. Also would you share the ingredients listed in the Irish Moss Ieave-in conditioner? Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@randommusings4957]

Gorgeous hair at 9:39! 🌻I'm 50 shades of green, lol🌻

[@Shay45]

My hair does the same thing all my shed hair collects at the ends. This makes detangling my ends really difficult because I have to be SO careful

[@bfluk8986]

Yes I definitely have delayed shedding !!!

[@beautifullusciouscurls2610]

Question: how often do you trim your hair?

[@topistarnelima6797]

Finally I got my hair type with the same texture as mine

[@1womanoffaith1]

Thank you for this video. I will try it. Can you please share a link or info on how to purchase the bonnet you are wearing. Thanks so much!

My question where did you get your gorgeous turban?

[@ndidiamakaduru998]

Lets see your detangling day and how much hair you really loose/ shed on that day

[@lisaw44]

ACV is an astringent. Meaning it removes moisture from whatever it comes into contact. Have you ever considered trying a water / 100% aloe vera juice combination for your nightly routine instead?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Lisa Walker, Psy.D. Hey! My use of ACV in this video was a total accident. I had wanted to just use water so I poured liquid from my drinking bottle into my spray bottle. It turns out I had been drinking ACV water. Since ACV doesn’t affect my hair badly, I used this mixture but feel free to use aloe juice. The acidity of ACV promotes closure of the cuticle, which could help the hair stay moisturised. It was at a very low concentration as well, around 5%, so it didn’t have a noticeable drying effect. I have used Aloe juice in the past. I’m also a fan of that.

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

@@NaturallyHigh If you drink water with ACV added , you will definitely taste it.

[@Doc_McStuffins]

Is your hair not still wet the next day? With even light misting on Fridays after school, my hair is still damp when I take down my 8 or so braids on Monday morning. 😣

[@NaturallyHigh]

C Jones no it isn’t but my heating has been on so the air in my room is quite dry. If you find your hair stays damp, just use leave-in without any water.

[@iqueen2472]

You are the truth. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@slaveofAllah14]

Do both voiceovers and lives the effect is better. I love your videos >>>>>>

[@shannonarmstrong6364]

Always gorgeous

[@iamgratefuldailyy]

You give me hope. Just started following you on Instagram. Do you 1st braid your hair from the roots than twist most of your hair to achieve each individual lock look?

[@NaturallyHigh]

I'm so pleased to hear this. Yes, exactly. This is a twistout resulting from twists with plaited roots.

[@beauty422]

So are your roots plaited the whole time?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Lashandaaa yes - until my full wash day.

[@gigielektrixx]

Would you ever heat train your hair to avoid the tangling and coiling?

[@NaturallyHigh]

No

[@Missmonique808]

I’m also looking for work related to biotechnology/pharma. :) If you follow me on Instagram you’ll see more of my daily like in my stories. Thanks for your interest!

[@SAVANTES1]

Naturally High how did you get the job teaching English e.g. any special qualifications, experience, certs necessary or native speaker? Do you teach Adults/children etc interested in doing the same

[@serenitybeats1677]

Naturally High wow that’s amazing 💗

[@NaturallyHigh]

I'm a native speaker and got CELTA certified one summer during my bachelor's. I was lucky enough to have my employer, the Maastricht University Language Centre, sponsor it. I started teaching children in Spain but I've since taught adults on courses ranging from Business English to English for Academic Purposes and others on exam preparation (IELTS, CAE, BEC etc.). You'll need a formal certificate (CELTA/TEFL) and a university degree for most positions.

[@SAVANTES1]

Naturally High thanks a lot for reply this is very helpful and much appreciated.

It doesn’t make my hair lock if that’s what you mean.

[@tlade7]

What is your hair porosity?

I have this texture but I don’t think it will ever get this thick or long :/ I’m 2 years 5 months natural.

[@NaturallyHigh]

Valerie Price Irish moss leave in from mixtress j

[@iso4658]

I cant wait

[@taylorcat29]

Yeah. I always get those dangling shed hairs too but I can usually tell the difference since my ends are blonde lol (yes I'm still a bad natural)

[@NaturallyHigh]

You do too! That’s helpful though! At least you know for sure that they’re shed. I sometimes leave them dangling as a ‘buffer’ since I know my ends will knot up anyway and I may as well let the shed hair do it. 🙊Was going to mention that too but thought it might be too extreme for some people. With your blond hairs, this ‘buffering’ method could work really well. Your ends would kind of be like telomeres on the end of DNA 🧬 which prevent the main part of the strand from being damaged.

[@Virtuenow]

Live is much better than voice over. Thanks for asking!

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

Agreed!

[@nickiesarobinson7581]

Which leave in conditioner do you use?

[@user-um7tw6kx4r6]

[@Timetrae]

Live please!

[@Timetrae]

I think delaying detangling is logical. No need to detangling until you are ready to wash your hair. That would be entirely too much manipulation.

[@ggqnice]

What was your leave-in?

[@NaturallyHigh]

Irish Moss Leave in by Mixtress J! 😘

[@teahgurl]

[@christine1962ful]

Is this style loose twists?

[@NaturallyHigh]

christine1962ful hey love! These are clumps. I’ve just seen your other comment and I intend to do just that. Thank you for sharing your recommendation with me! 😘😘😘

[@christine1962ful]

@@NaturallyHigh thank you for reading my comments and taking time to give them thought. It means a lot to see when you tubers listen to their subscribers and try to accomodate the needs for all different lengths etc. Looking FWD to all your upcoming offerings. I've ended up just cornrowing my hair straight back in basic cornrows for now and plan to keep them in as long as possible and take what I can from your videos to help retain any length and low manipulation. So for now, it will be keeping the ends extra moisturised, and I will dapply a spray leavein mixed with oils every other day at night to keep my hair hydrated and moisturised. The odd water rinse in the shower (no rubbing), and/or just applying a watered down mixture of shampoo to my hair and just patting it on a light scalp massage to clean scalp, same for deep conditioner just patting it into wet cornrows, rinse and moisturise, then cover with silk scarf to dry and reduce any frizz. I'm keep my hair covered with a satin cap and wearing a hat or wrap most of the time. I believe the plaited clumps will be coming next once I get the full grasp. Thank you for acknowledging me.

[@NaturallyHigh]
