[@zoecalifornia80]

Thanks for the update on products, because I thought Ulta and Sephora weren't carrying your products. So glad I was wrong.

[@morganamoore1226]

Please try Vigorol Mousse. Or even better CREATE ONE!!!! We would Love that! Love ya Whit! God Bless Queen. 💝💝💝😊😊

[@shelbymcdandan4431]

OMG!!!! Video!!! This makes me so happy OK let me watch now- let me be quiet and watch🤓🤓🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤣🤣🤣💕💕🌼🌼

[@LuvlyBliss147]

Design Essentials is my favorite mousse. The other is by Crème of Nature Argan Style and a shine-use that for a soft fluffy twist out

[@starelettwilliams797]

I think YOU should make a mousse using Melanin😊

[@DarkCilinder]

It’s crazy. I’m 28 and i grew up watching you!! And you’re still killing ittt😍

[@Naptural85]

Love you so much sis! 🥹🥰 Thank you for still hanging with me! 😘😘❤❤❤

[@DivineShine7]

Right! It’s cray to think we have the possibility of meeting a real-life shero! 💌

[@nnemka450]

Same! Been watching for 10 years now ❤

[@letty4803]

Me too 😅❤

[@ayykay6322]

Been watching since I was in university, like 12 years ago it’s sooo wild

[@IamShaunnaNakice]

After all these years i still cannot get enough of Ms Whitney White. We love you Whitney! Thanks for the great content.

[@saqua608]

PLEASE!!! Yes to the daily wash routine! I work out almost everyday too and I don't know the best way to get the sweat out of my hair without overwashing!

[@Naptural85]

Noted!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾❤❤

[@reginadavis1028]

You could do an acv and water spray on your scalp daily. 1/2 cp acv and 2 cups water. Spritz and let air dry.

[@Downsjasmine]

She said in this video that she sets her hair 5 times a week. So because she’s refreshing so often that’s why she’s saying all she needs is this gentle quick wash ❤ I hope this helps

[@jamillewade2352]

This. I literally have the worse time trying to balance low manipulation but keeping my hair clean. I run and lift weights 5-6 days a week, and I really want to wash my hair often, but retain length.

[@Kodak718]

Yes, Whitney, you know we want a week in your daily routine

[@lotsofglo]

I just wanna let you know that you paved the way thru my natural hair journey the last 10+ years

[@Naturallyrose86]

I started watching her in 2018 when I started my natural hair journey. Because of her I now have my own youtube hair channel and I am an investor in her company. I looooooooooooove her.

[@shannonlafaye]

I've been natural 27yrs, but it's not until I started watching you that I really learned how to care for my hair. And I love that you still use other products besides your own and review them... that being said, melanin line is mostly all I use! Lol

[@sammiwright4169]

Whit, thank you for the years of honesty, transparency, dedication and devotion to the natural hair community! You are by far my most trusted and respected vlogger! May you continue to have much success! Sammi W.

[@Naptural85]

Thank you so much for the kind message Sammi! 🥰🙏🏾❤

[@coilyheadedbby]

I totallyyyy agree with you on the mousse topic. I am not willing to compromise moisture for a defined look, and a lot of stylers on the market that do a fantastic job at holding curls, end up leaving the curls so dry and brittle, making my hair feel like straw😭😭

[@jcruzin1]

I wish all natural hair KZbin influencer gave tutorials like this. So many of them don’t tell you their secrets.

[@yariarenas]

Yes please and thank you! Would love to see what a typical week of washing, styling and refreshing your hair, especially any tips around how you protect and refresh for a workout 👀 Also can't wait to try the pin above the ear trick, thanks for that

[@DearAmeerah]

Your just the queen of natural hair care

[@moniqued5973]

The isolated spot of grays is so gorgeous omg 😍✨

[@star0138]

Oh God, I long for natural hair like this. Can’t wait thee best you got all four. Moisture, Definition, Length, and Volume.❤❤❤❤

[@brenyeabanks3710]

I started my natural hair journey because of you!!! Since 2016

[@panamasfinest2458]

You have no clue how much i needed this diffusing and bobby-pin tutorial! My hair loves to embarrass me 😂

[@laineyturner3785]

Ditto 😂

[@Naptural85]

😆😭🙏🏾 I'm so happy it helped!! ❤

[@Myocloud361]

Right!! These are amazing tips! Thank you for showing the whole tutorial. Super helpful!! 😊😊

[@Fiyahstyles]

I was hoping you’d do an updated wash and go routine! Ever since you went to beauty school I’ve been curious to see what/if you’d do or change. Happy to see you’re still layering multiple products and getting bomb results. So inspirational!

[@_ed_1684]

will love a week in your natural hair!!

[@ThisBeauty09]

Whitney!!! I know you have a lot of OGs here!! I’ve been along for the journey so long, I can’t even remember!!! I remember watching you having Olivia and shortly after having my own daughter!!! Just wanted to say I LOVE each of your products and am so happy for your growth!!! Also!!! I’m delighted to see you embracing your grey hair!!! It’s so beautiful and graceful!!!

[@Obekanobee]

Haven’t seen your videos in a while but I started my natural hair journey back in 2012 bc of you. Glad to see how much you’ve grown.

[@sdot602]

Whitney how are you still teaching us after all these years. Everyone else stretches their hair incorrectly. This is thee❤best way for shape. Game changer ❤❤

[@tijania]

Yes ma’am, I clicked JUST to get the tea on in-stock update. I needs my MHC😊

[@MsLcyoung]

Girl you really came a long way!!! I remember when you only used mud wash shampoo. No heat!!!! I use to walk go to bed with wet hair trying to keep up like you lol. I love this!!

[@Naptural85]

😆Aw thank you! No more time to wait on air drying! I also feel like I get better results when I quickly dry the hair with heat - no time for the frizz to form! 💯❤

[@mjordie97]

I love the gray hair! Also Whitneys hair always amazes me! It looks almost the same with or without product like the curls are so pronounced!

[@Naptural85]

😭🙏🏾Thank you!! ❤

[@jonespink]

I absolutely love the design essentials mousse. Of all the mousse I’ve tried that’s the best one. I have to try Verb. Cause your curls are pretty! I used to go to Target for your products ! 😊

[@shannonpolice9365]

Do u know you're one of the few KZbinrs who I watch videos from start to finish... this was friggin magic

[@n.g.l.]

I love your grays, it looks like highlights.

[@kimberlyblackwell4099]

Your hair turned out amazing, and let’s not forget to mention how beautiful your makeup and skin looks.

[@MsVaughnKitty]

oh sweet Whitney... i've been a subscriber since my high school days back in 2010. thank you for all that you have done. you are such a talent and inspiration. phenomenal woman! melanin will forever be part of my routine, idc how i have to get it ❤

[@phyllisedmondson8517]

Yes Whit we want to see your routine 😅 So good to see you and thanks for taking the time for this video Much Love ❤❤

[@Naptural85]

XOX!! Miss you guys! And imma keep coming back as much as I can! ❤❤❤

[@reigndelay8629]

Whew! Glad to know you’ll be back in Ulta. I love having the option to go into the store to pickup. I don’t have to worry about porch pirates or something going on with my delivery. I did get my hands back on your shampoo. It’s the only one that works for me. I would love to see how you shampoo your hair like once a quarter as your hair grows.

[@Special_Kfed]

I just cut my hair for the first time and have been stalking your old videos for a wash and go routine 😅 I just bought a Dyson (after another one of your videos) and to see this now truly feels like affirmation that im moving in the right direction. ❤

[@Just-YOLANDA-T.C]

Whitney, you still have alot of hair and length. Beautiful curly, shiney, and healthy hair. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Naptural85]

Aw thank you Yolanda! It’s thinned out from the stress and from getting older but I’m thankful for what I’ve retained! ❤❤

[@kimmcfadden4679]

​@@Naptural85...Just a tip that's helped me. I started taking biotin capsules and it's helping to slow down the shedding in my hair tremendously. So you might want to try that and see if it works. By the way I have a thyroid condition which is called Hashimoto's disease as well as going through menopause. So if it works for me it probably will most definitely work for you 😊

[@shannonberry2426]

Yes! Please do a week in my hair and show your night time and morning routine. 👍🏽

[@Kourtney_zoj]

I am rocking twa and wash every week/ every 3 or 4 days and I just shampoo and condition then style with lotta body mousse/ setting lotion and set in comb coils and my hair has been the healthiest ever (original big chop in 2012 because I seen your videos) I find keeping it simple is the best. I been loving your videos sense I was a teenager in 10th grade ❤❤

[@nyaassis]

So beautiful, gerat teaching. I am going to give this a try and your grays are gorgeous I am a bit inspired to grow mine out!

[@luvhimgirl]

Yes please do a week in your hair when it is curly and blown out, i love your hair :) Thanks and be blessed

[@Mickeii617]

Likes someone else said. I'm also 28 and I was just talking to someone about how long I've been natural and I went natural in 2014. Because I found your videos and it's so crazy. How long I've been following you. I I was sixteen

[@crystalsimmons9976]

Of course we want your routine! I work out 5 days a week, and I'm always looking for ways to maintain my hair. Also, you might need to show us this workout, you mentioned fighters🤔.

[@IbariaWheeler]

Your hair tips are just simply everything!!!🙌🏾👊🏾👏🏾☺️🤗

[@sharemylove806]

Yayyyy!!! Melanin will be back in stock soon!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@miniminott48]

Whitney, gorgeous result as expected!!! Yes, please for the daily routine video!

[@Fishnator01]

Hi witney from S.A u one of the curly women who inspired me to do big chop and go natural long time❤❤❤❤❤

[@samekajones462]

The glow of your skin and hair fabulous ❤

[@epicfacesollux6366]

I haven’t been taking care of my curls for the past couple of years, but I’m definitely going to prioritize my hair again! 😊

[@myrealnameisminda]

Head & Shoulders is EXACTLY what I use for my hair!!! I've used the apple and also tea tree oil ones as well. Nothing works on my scalp like Head & Shoulders!!! P.S. LOVING the cut!!! :)💜

[@tanishawebb6346]

Girl you gonna sell out my favourite mousse design essentials. I’ve been using it for years

[@laurenthomas3748]

I may try a wash & go again 😂 Each time I do, my 4C hair shrinks back up, but that’s ok. I’m focused on having healthy hair. Length retention is lower on the list now.

[@taylakurner]

You inspired me to go natural over 10 years ago. I've been struggling a bit with my curls lately, debating whether or not if I still want to be natural. I just had a wash day and really took the time to appreciate my hair and it's beauty. And watching this video has once again inspired me to keep trying different things in order to find what truly works best for me. Thank you for all you do, Whitney! P.S. I also work out everyday, and I would love to see how you keep your hair looking great! Thanks again! P.S.S. When are you opening up a salon?! I would love to have my hair styled by you one day :)))

[@SolCareMimi]

Love this question!!! Bc I’d absolutely go to a Melanin hair care salon!! I hope she sees this and answers 🤞🏾 Good luck continuing to fall in love with your hair ❤

[@taylakurner]

@@SolCareMimi I remember a while ago she was getting her cosmetology license, so there has to be something in the works. I would totally travel and spend whatever to have Whitney do my hair. There's so few people who know how to do our hair. There's a hole in market, Whitney! Get it while the getting is good.

[@miyoniab]

Love the new cut and thanks for the bobby pins over the ears for framing... that's perfect 🙂

[@monicalduvall]

Design Essentials Almond and Avocado shampoo feels like heaven! 🥰💜

[@onekayahu8608]

Whitney I absolutely love your gray patch ❤. It’s giving Storm vibes from marvel.

[@lenah5513]

Thanks for this! I just followed your steps and my hair looks fabulous 😍🤩😍🤩

[@Truechildofgod]

You have the most prettiest grey hair!!! This wash n go came out fabulously Whitney

[@Bri-lg1zj]

The Queen of Natural Hair, the rest are just copies! Love you, Nap85👑🌱💐❤️

[@paulac875]

I am about to watch this video and praying you have an update when your full-size leave in condition will be back in. Prayers answered. Your product is the only product that I tried that works well with my daughter's hair.

[@tashannadarby8831]

I'm glad you made this comment. I like you, wondered the same. I've missed her products not only for my hair but my daughter's as well. Her products are the only ones that are reasonably priced for the amount of hair my daughter has and you can see the difference in one use. I can't wait for the return. ❤

[@niahowze70]

Hey Whitney!! Long time viewer here, I’d love to hear your weekly routine! I remember watching one from back in the day for working out and I definitely need the update.

[@MegaSimone23]

Thank you SO MUCH for the mousse recommendations! The design essential actually worked for my hair! Gives definition and mild volume!! Love it for the price and size

[@lindafloralmeida6114]

Thanks for the update!! I’m in the UK and I’ve been crying since my leave in conditioner finished

[@naturalbeautyj8856]

Yes to daily shampooing would be awesome and great to see.

[@katrinalark433]

this was a true wash and GO! your curls are beautiful! I have to try this mousse

[@mrstrinas]

My hair is this texture and I struggle with the shrinking through the day. I will definitely try the bobby pin trick. Thanks Whitney!

[@JessicaSmith-ie7cm]

Yesssss, I got my products for me and my two little girls 😊😊😊

[@tangiessubtleluxuries]

Thanks for telling us about your hair care products. Your hair looks Amazing!❤❤❤

[@Jo-Ann_]

Really cute 😍 I loved it even after just the diffuser

[@LunatheLoungeSinger]

Omg thy this makes so much more sense on how to define and moisturize. This is saved for my near future

[@s.shonteabdulahad334]

Love this. I thought i was being heavy-handed with my setting foam. Clearly, i did it right. Also, I can't wait until you get your products back on ulta shelves!

[@theresamartin7279]

Thank you for sharing. Always enjoy your videos and I’ll have to give this style a try. So yes a daily routine would be awesome to see how you keep it looking good. Haven’t tried like a wash N go style for a while because I feel like I can’t maintain it well.

[@learningthruliving]

I’ve been loc’d for 4 years, but watching you do this wash n go makes me miss my loose hair! And on another note, I love knowing that I can use Head and Shoulders on my natural hair, because I deal with dry scalp, but I’ve been afraid that it would dry out my hair (even though your African Black Soap shampoo is my go to)

[@EbonyBomani]

I'm sure it's been at least 10 years and I still love watching your videos!

[@judis9184]

You have beautiful curls Whitney! 👍🏽🥰

[@tracylewis552]

Beautiful wash and go!!

[@525dtmcc]

Hey there! Another great video. I do the bobby pin trick too. I need bobby pins over my thinning edges to frame my face and hold down that shrinkage. It really does hold all day.

[@Alyssaluv22]

Definitely snatched up my deep conditioner weeks ago on Sephora

[@Purlytricotyarn]

I've been using your hair pin tip on my wash and go's and twist outs for years now. ❤❤

[@naturalbeyouty]

Looks gorgeous as usual! I haven't found a mousse yet that I like because it leaves my hair dry and it only lasts for one day. I'm going to try the 2 that you recommended. Thanks!❤

[@donnicaduncan1379]

Your curls are so pretty 😍

[@malikadiamond]

I was thinking how your hair get short because I remember it being long lol you cut ✂️ it ! Beautifully done as always 👏 ❤️

[@demetria2000]

Thanks for sharing (Always)👍🏾👍🏾. Would you mind sharing your maintenance/nightly routine?

[@starmaxx4]

Luv this video 🥰💙.. always luv your hair and products 😉

[@boutux]

I do the face framing with bobby pins too but not just over my ear. I have bangs and the hair over my ears are my 4C patches so to make sure that my hair blends as it shrinks through out the day I will hold down the roots of my face framing hairs from my temples to my ears.

[@charro028]

Thumbnail is everything!

[@ShannonTheMojito]

On doctor's orders I'm using head and shoulders 3x a week. It's the truth! I use the pyrithione conditioner, rinse out, and use a leave in, and my hair is doing well.

[@nikiaknox6418]

Your greys look BEAUTIFUL, I have them in the same area.🥰

[@donnicaduncan1379]

Sis your skin is so pretty

[@cherelled6419]

Your grey looks so cute! Curly hair Rogue from X-Men 😊

[@leslieterry5788]

Your grey looks so good mine is on both sides of my temple and I hate it s I use henna and try to keep it colored I’m not ready to embrace mines but if it looked like yours I probably would ❤it…your hair turned out beautiful. And yes would love to see wash day and style technique.

[@allisonmartin848]

Thanks for the video. After my workout I’m wetting my hair in the shower each morning, finger detangling, adding the leave in conditioner, no rinse just adding the mousse. I love the results, but I can’t wait to see how you work your magic after a workout!

[@kelliecook736]

Your grey is looking super cool

[@ashleighcharakupa7837]

Hi Whitney. Yes, plz. We love your content❤

[@Kreama8030]

💕Love Melanin Haircare for a few reasons. Thank you for sharing that info about restocking. Loyal customer here, patiently waiting for the Twist-Elongating Style Cream (2nd MOST favorite MHC product) to become available on the website.

[@adambata4667]

Whitney, your hair is so bomb

[@rbq426]

Thank you for showing us this routine ❤ if you would like, some cute protective style ideas would be great, like series ❤thank you for showing us your towel and how to dry with a Dyson

[@shegegirl]

Please do an actual wash day asmr! That sounded so good!😍

[@ggqnice]

I love theMelanin leave in for its many uses,but it’s especially good at rehydrating and detangling the hair. I love the VerbGhost oil as a sealant. Now, I’ll have to buy the Verb mousse, because it looks nice and moisturizing. I just began using the Design Essentials almond and avocado mousse, because my hair feels soft and looks defined after it dries.

[@jojomojo86]

Beautiful hair and useful tips as always!

[@mshurt100]

Gorgeous & so helpful.I’d love to see this look the next day. Or third day. I’m exhausted redoing hair daily. 😢Thanks as always Whitney!❤

[@chidinma7289]

Yes a week in hair washing routine please

[@aprilsuniverse]

I love Head & Shoulders! I started getting a really itchy scalp a few months ago and that shampoo fixed it. I'm not sure what caused it but this is my go to shampoo
