DETANGLING MY NATURAL HAIR AFTER 6 WEEKS OF NOT WASHING | Obaa Yaa Jones

[@Supreme-jg3xs]

Who else was detangling their hair just like her while watching?🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰.

[@f.maria7835]

Father I pray that you bless my sister who is teaching us how to take care of our hair...thank you so much

[@owamuhmza]

You have spoken the truth. I have had to leave my TWA mentality behind and embrace the responsibility of detangling longer hair. With more length comes more detangling👍

I can’t wait for my hair to be like that. It’s getting there by the grace of God

I totally agree with you about the detangling time , that is very important to be patience and not rush

[@ObaaYaaJones]

💯🤎✨️

[@CoilyCode]

Oh, just wait and see, I can't wait to spend oodles of time untangling my soon-to-be long hair, just like I'm having a blast detangling my short hair right now! It's like a fun little therapy session! #HappyResurrectionDay #HeisRisen

[@ObaaYaaJones]

That's awesome. Viewing your detangling as a self care therapy session makes doing your hair feel less like a chore. I love that! Yes, he is risen! 🤎✨️✨️

[@hereforit2347]

You don’t know the half. Take my advice, save yourself the aggravation and detangle your long hair no less often than once a week. Letting it sit in braids or twists for too long causes *major* matting at the roots and it is NOT fun. 💯

[@rachelmm05]

Your hair is absolutely beautiful. When I was a loose natural i did this same pre-wash detangling method and I was able to retain so much length🙂.. I still use this method on my girls hair they are teenagers but both have healthy mid back length hair. Taking time to properly detangle is one of the main keys to length retention 🙂

[@miniminott48]

Just looking at you handling your long, beautiful hair with such love and care is so soothing to me. Looking forward to the wash day video!

[@heavensentiajed8082]

Try re wetting sections when gliding the comb through and it’s getting stuck. It will help to smooth the shafts down. Your hair tends to frizz quickly, and needs a bit of water to smooth it. Maybe a cup of water close by to dip your comb in as you go

[@SwietKintretjie]

Very healthy and beautiful hair our Heavenly Father has blessed you with. Just keep thanking and blessing his name. Greetings from your follower in Suriname🇸🇷 . ❤❤

[@annblessed111]

Set time aside and detangle without rushing, true words!

Thank you! Will do! 🤎✨️

I love that you start your videos with a verse.🙏❤️🙏🥹

[@khrys-annjosephs9700]

Thank you for showing your process and explaining what you do. I needed this video as I’ve experienced breakage due to not handling my natural hair properly. I have to change how I care for my hair because I don’t see much length retention, and I know my hair grows so it’s so frustrating for me. I’m slowly unlearning my bad habits because I believe I was causing damage to my hair, and I want to do better moving forward. Your channel is helping to educate me on how to care for my natural hair properly, and I appreciate it a lot. Hope you are doing well and God bless.

[@JesssoBless7]

Lovely as always. I love how you are so gentle with your hair!

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Thank you so much 🤎✨️✨️

[@marieperpetuemoncoeur2954]

Hair goal but I don’t think I will have this patience for the detangling part. My hair is half your length and I often lose patience when it comes to detangle. I like to see your hair: thick and super long 😍

[@berniejaylea]

That the amount of hair I got from 3 weeks worth of being in a protective style and my hair isn't as long as yours (but I suppose it included pre and post wash detangling. Thanks for sharing.

[@wordsbymaribeja1470]

I was looking for this comment - same with me.

[@cityreadings]

Thank you 🙏 for this. I used to panic when I saw that much shedding. Now I know it is normal ❤

[@JoyBNaturals]

Good to see you're taking your time to finger detangle first before using a wide tooth comb. I also finger detangle my hair cos it really helps to reduce breakage. Nice and long hair you have here😃.

[@Sharon633]

I feel like my hair struggle is similar to yours when it comes to detangling. I'm almost in tears every time I detangle my hair for washing. I'm excited to see your hair washing video.

[@mrod87]

How do you style your hair on a daily basis?

[@Sharon633]

@@mrod87 I keep my hair in twists for the most part. I only take the twists out of I'm going somewhere special. In between keeping my hair in twists, I remoisturize every week until I'm ready to wash it again

[@jk9084]

I also use fingers first and comb after

[@TheButterflySoulfire]

Very helpful.

[@jamesflames3343]

You have very beautiful hair.😘 Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed watching you detangle your hair 😊.

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Thank you so much 🤎✨️

[@jameelasealey1856]

Hey Obaa! Just watched your video, you have good hair, and I think just looking at your hair texture you should treat your hair every 2 months (Steam Treatment) trim the ends each time you treat it, and then, thread your hair so that its volume and length can be maintained.

[@beautylatebea5282]

Still learning!!! Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@ObaaYaaJones]

You are welcome 🤎✨️

[@1GoldenBreeze]

Your braids stayed so neat and frizz-free for six weeks. My braids get frizzy, tangled, and difficult to take down after about one and a half weeks. That's one of the reasons I don't do braids. Oh yes, detangling, as well as improper moisturizing, are the things that become big setbacks to length retention. Since I do my hair twice a week detangling in the shower is a quick and easy process even with long hair.

[@ObaaYaaJones]

I had the braids in for 3 weeks, not 6 weeks. 😊🤎✨️

[@1GoldenBreeze]

@@ObaaYaaJones Ah, sorry I missunderstood the title. lol

[@luvelyjay]

Water and my fingers are my besties when it comes to detangling.

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Awesome 🤎✨️

Water is definitely a miracle worker!

I literally struggled with detangling my longer hair :( this type of video was on my mind. I feel like I'm not doing it right. ripping through my hair. not sure if I'm using the write tools. I've been using the same detangling brush for years, but now its not working ...

[@epiccoconut5995]

I LOVE your name! ❤

[@NewJohariClassic]

I thought it was just me that got lint stuck in their hair esp towards the ends! I never heard anyone online complain about it. I don't remember having it when my hair was shorter.

[@lloyd.jourdan]

Could you please do a braid install for this size?

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Thank you dear 🤎✨️

[@alsorganiccosmetics3740]

Sissy you are wonderful and your hair is a TRUE CROWN OF GLORY. Your detailed explanation on the whole process was AWESOME. Our natural hair loves water and the conditioner & olive oil give an excellent slip. I normally use home made flaxseed gel for this process. 6 to 8 hours to finger detangle?? I can understand

[@lethatobias7223]

How often do you moisturize your hair?

[@somebodycomelistentothispo7217]

I’ve tried detangling with combs and I can’t. I lose too much hair. I can only finger detangle. My hair isn’t as long as yours but I’m sure when it is, I won’t be able to use combs still.

[@orewahouston2143]

How often do you wash your hair? How do you manage itchy scalp in between washes? 😩 I have wavy hair and I go 2-3 weeks without washing and I want to go longer but this scalp 😭😭

[@ObaaYaaJones]

I have been streching out my wash days to maximum 6 weeks, but typically, I wash every 3-4 weeks. I don't have any special regimen for my scalp because it doesn't really itch.

[@ki100_official]

Love it 😍

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Thanks sis 🤎✨️😍

[@PrincessPink433]

When she started detangling I got PTSD flashbacks.

[@likelashae4932]

Hello !! Thank you for the video this is amazing that it takes you only two hours why does mine take all day and it’s medium length 😮 and I only use my fingers idk what I am doing wrong maybe I go too long without washing usually it’s like some weeks last time it was like three months in my twists but I don’t know I’m trying to retain length so that’s why I am going For longer

[@likelashae4932]

And also if leaving in for a couple weeks when do you trim ? Is it after everytime you redo them ?

[@Glad2BGolden]

Beautiful. How long is your hair?

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Thank you.🤎✨️ Tailbone length

[@rejoiceisaac945]

how do you grow your hair this long, or is it natural growth?

[@hereforit2347]

Still not using a comb or brush. 😊😂

[@SheLikes]

Do you trim at all?

[@Kygirly27]

Question. I know I wash my 3c hair way to much I watch it a couple times a week and it's dry because of it but I'm always scared to go a week or 2 or longer because someone may smell my hair if they get close enough or my partner might smell it or if someone hugs me even if I use scented leave in products it still cannot cover up sweat smell or dirty hair smell. The weather here has been in the mid 70s. How do you go 6 weeks and keep it from smelling? I would like to stretch my wash days

[@ctay4sho09]

Have u tried co-washing? Some naturals have used a co-washing product to gently clean their hair. Look up co-washing cleaners online. Or a more moisturizing shampoo may help

[@Kygirly27]

@ctay4sho09 I've only cowashed a couple of times but never added it to my routine. If i were to cowash with the As I Am coconut co wash conditioner frequently i am not sure if co washes strip the hair at all. I need to stretch my wash days. Washing it every 2 -3 days lately which is more than I normally do because of the warmer weather. I'm jw what other women do. Do women take a shower without washing their hair? I have a shower cap maybe I should start doing this?. How often do you co wash in a weeks time. How often do you moisturize your hair? And I'm not sure how often you shower but when you shower do you get your hair wet or do you take several showers without washing your hair by keeping a shower cap on. Sorry for all the questions I just want to start trying this but need to figure out a routine. Thank you!!

[@ctay4sho09]

@Kylie I have never co washed my hair b4. I've been natural since 2011 & I've always washed my hair once a month. Sometimes longer 🫣. I just took my mini braids out this week & I only washed them twice. I had them in for 7 weeks; im trying to stretch my protective styles past the usual 4 weeks. My scalp did not smell. I use smell good growth oils & fruity smelling products as well. I spray fenugreek water & aloe vera on my scalp to refresh. I workout several times a week too. When I get home I will come back to tell u all of what I use

[@ObaaYaaJones]

I guess I have made my hair/scalp used to washing every 4-6 weeks. My sclap doesn't itch or smell, and I don't really oil my scalp. I moisturize once a week or so. I don't use a shower cap, I just tie my hair up, and that's it. Definitely try just washing once a week and see how that works for you. But you need to give yourself time to adjust to the change.

[@Kygirly27]

​@@ObaaYaaJonesI'm going to try this! I'm done washing my hair for a while. I do it too much. Thanks!
