[@KAMALAISHERNAME]

Black women are so BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

[@_kassideemalea]

thank you for the compliment lol

[@KAMALAISHERNAME]

Deryshia Johnson I'm a black woman myself. Just popping OUR collars. Lolllll

[@literallyclare3864]

+I broke the mold lol I just died

[@vday8364]

yes we are so unique and just gorgeous

[@AfridiZindabad]

I'm Not black but i agree. (My hair is 'kinky' so I watch these too).

[@nicolesprocess]

*THE REAL SECRET TO HER LONG HAIR IS THAT HER SCALP PRODUCES NATURAL OILS...AND SHE DOES NOT MANIPULATE HER HAIR MUCH*

[@NaptuRo90]

Nicole Bar YEEESSSSSS👌👌

[@k.6072]

Not combing my hair, and wearing it in that same style for at least a week, is where I would see the MOST growth. This video was confirmation for my hair journey.

[@creoleladee]

It's true, not manipulating the hair often does seem to aid growth.

[@miquel1908]

I know this is an old video, but I see that too. I cut my hair to chin length in February. I have gained at least three inches since then. I have been wearing a protective style all summer which doesn't require a lot of manipulation to my hair.

[@BizDiva]

Her hair is GORGEOUS! I can attest to the "leave it alone and it will grow" method. I had locs for 8 yrs and they were down my back. No one in my immediate family ever had hair that long and neither did either of my grand parents. So, I'd have to say that good hair care and little manipulation worked for me. I am now Big Chopped for the 3rd time in my life to make a run at natural hair unloc'd. Thank you for this wonderful interview and also for showing Kamisha's scalp bc ppl need to see that it is possible to grow our hair long even if we "break the rules"...But we must be patient and not do things that harm our hair! (Glad to hear from the sister below who has wonderful length even with lupus and challenges!) If you believe...ALL THINGS are possible!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks for watching and thanks so much for your positive feedback :)

[@hearfan]

This video reemphasizes the face that hair length is a matter of genetics. Some people can use vasoline, high heat, fine tooth combs and really treat their hair bad yet it flourishes while others follow the "Natural hair care rules" to a T and their hair never looks "right" or never grows very fast. It also shows that these rules don't apply across the board and you should find what works for your own hair even if its gas station oil.

[@naturegirl2110]

I hear you on that one. My hair is so thick, not in a good way, that I Have to relax just to pass a comb through it. Wish I could go natural but I could never manage it. Genetics is very important. I've seen people use the best products and their hair is wiry and doesn't grow longer than 3 inches in their lifetime. Others treat it like crap and their hair just keeps on growing. I just want mine to be manageable which it never is. Each time I buy a comb my hubby prays for it. Lol

[@hearfan]

naturegirl2110 lol, I used to break combs too.

[@shawtyizanadult]

+naturegirl2110 Hotcombs makes seamless combs. They may help you.

[@kamikam4864]

+hear fan +naturegirl2110 Thank you for watching ladies....I would just emphasize that there are no absolute rules, but rather "best practices" when it comes to healthy hair - because simply put, everyone's hair is different. I did not treat my hair badly prior to my hair journey. Yes, my products likely contained alcohol, sulfate, mineral oil and other natural hair no-nos. But what was in my favor was that I only touched my hair once a week, kept my hair moisturized, swore by low manipulation and protective styling, always deep conditioned and trimmed when needed. Genetics play a role in the rate at which your hair grows and your hair texture, color, etc. But genetics play NO part in retaining length....everyone's hair grows, you must implement practices that will help YOU retain your length, whatever that may be. To me, the "best products" don't exist - rather, there are products that my hair loves and responds to. I appreciate your honesty and candor and happy to hear that someone else is breaking combs right along with me!! LOL

[@Thoughtso573]

I died at gas station oil 😭

[@xxfaithyxx1]

It seems as though protective styling was a big contributing factor to her hairs health

[@rightfullyso7062]

People who do A LOT to their hair, think she is with holding information or being deceitful..but in all reality.. the less you do the more likely your hair will flourish in the end.. if you can go without trying to be in style and keep up with the latest hair fads.. and keep your hands out of your head unless it's a moisturizing or oil treatment.. there is no telling how long your hair can grow. I have had several fades and many steps backwards and have finally waved the white flag.. I keep a wash and go and make sure to snip any split ends.. massage your scalp and just find whichever staple products that works for you.. less is more

[@carameldale4218]

All the people on here saying genetics must be salty that they are bathing in dragon blood an cant reach bra strap length but she uses mineral oil and has butt crack hair. You find out what works for you and your hair. thats what she did

[@KinkyKoilyKayla]

Most naturals frown upon mineral oils and petroleum jelly but I use petroleum jelly on my toddler's hair and her hair is almost tailbone length. I think I'm going to start using it myself

[@carameldale4218]

Kinky Koily Kayla Thats geat! If she has high porosity hair it can really be beneficial. I have low porosity so it causes more damage fr me.

[@akemi8589]

You should be careful with the mineral oils, they carry toxins.

[@burritosenpai5890]

I thought it was based on monthly growth.Does it actually differ from person to person? :( I'm trying to grow my hair since I bleached it and it was so damaged I had to cut it and I have many layers now and it's shoulder length again.Everyone keeps saying that hair only grows half an inch a month but there's gotta be a loop or some tricks to growing it fast

[@carameldale4218]

Burrito Senpai its both genetics and how you take care of your hair. If it is badly bleached, get the dead ends off first. If the damage is extensive and too much to cut off, do intensive protein and moisture treatments to maintain the length until the healthy hair grows out long enough. Also, everyone is different. I grow a minimum of a half inch a month, and inch if I put some care into it, and more if I use growth aids. My hair particularly likes sulfur but dislikes biotin. Try things until you find what works.

[@Elektrix0]

I gasped when she stated that she used a fine tooth comb & didn't comb from the bottom up. If that's not the privilege of good genetics, I don't know what is - gotta agree with most on here in regards to that. Might sound a little crazy, but I think her actual hair stands are naturally thicker and can therefore tolerate some of the products and styling methods she mentioned that would likely break most of our hair.

[@crazymusicgrlcheesecake]

Elektrix0 that’s not crazy at all, she has genetics of thicker hair and fast growth because it looks like no matter how horrid her hair practices were it still grew.

[@CkeyBeauty]

crazymusicgrl Elektrix0 I literally just uploaded an update on Kamisha's hair (like 5 minutes ago), she answers a lot of questions from this video.. Take a looksy.

[@CkeyBeauty]

We just filmed an updated version of this video where she discusses genetics. You should check it out ;)

[@MsEliteForever]

How do you comb from bottom up. My hair would break off if I did that

[@Utriedit215]

agreed

[@SheReaDelSol]

Her hair is beautiful!!!!!!!!!

[@sheilaorangd1967]

I noticed that I was looking at some Indian women with long hair most of them have very dark hair but when it comes to black women and they beautiful hair they always talkin about protective styling and putting on a wig and putting on weaves but the Indian women who have skin that is darker than some of us African Americans but beautiful skin also Brown beautiful skin and no one ever asked them what they use what they you know they asked them about oils and things like that they talk about products that they use that comes from the green trees or leaves or but with African-American they asking us if we use perm do you have any mixed people in your family know is that you take care of your hair like this young lady he said anyting keeps her hair healthy so she's just one of the very lucky ones that she doesn't have to use products to help her hair stay healthy but yes they always asking us as black Americans what do we use how do we use it when do we use it no we all as black women can grow hair also and we don't have to have protective styling because once you grow your hair to the length that you want to continue to take care of it you don't go and put a perm in it you continue to take care of it I do blow dry my hair on the cool setting then I will every once in awhile to see my length that I'm retaining I will use a flat iron but I make sure that I use heat control products so you know I was here gross we just have to take care of it more carefully so it won't break or dry out

[@taima19]

Love her hair, She's so pretty and humble.

[@babygurlchels12]

It's not that she's lucky...i see where she's coming from. People always think products and technique is what grows hair. It's not... you retain length when you leave your hair alone. Manipulation is what causes breakage...and as she said she wears her hair in a bun all week. She doesn't even do twistouts which can cause tangling for alot of people. She doesnt shampoo often which can help retain length also.

[@ocky88]

So basically the answer to long healthy hair is genetics and minimal manipulation? That's what I gathered

[@gmogottago7746]

***** Lol, right!

[@kamikam4864]

***** And a lot of consistent and proper hair care. Trust me, I work hard for it :-)

[@holyonfire]

***** Good to know.

[@Dreamer7est]

Yes you're right, and also moisturizing the hair so it doesn't dry out. Pay attention to your ends!

[@kimmie2422]

+holyonfire

[@FreeAudioBooks984]

Love the honesty! She's breaking all the rules. " Long hair just don't care!" Thanks for posting!

[@elevatedspirit8]

Cute, lovely hair! I love this! My hair is bc length too and I am growing it longer. I'm so happy to see so many of us growing our own long, healthy hair (no shade against weave), I'm just happy we are proving naysayers wrong.

[@MsEliteForever]

Yes prove them wrong. our hair can grow

[@sydneyweekes7207]

Boutta buy all types of grease 💀😭😂

[@April-om6gz]

lmfao.

[@rebecca60172]

Lolz. you and me both.

[@renitawilliams]

lol!!!!

[@PictureMeNatural]

Didnt think I would watch the whole thing but you two were so captivating!! love it!! new subbie!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Wow, that definitely means a lot :) Thanks so much for tuning in and for joining the family

[@nicolekortstam]

same here !

[@AstoldbyNicole]

girl that hair is BEAUTIFUL!

[@AngeliqueElijah]

This is an old vid but it just showed up in my recommended. But "the secret" to retaining length and such is simply to stay out of your hair, apply minimal heat, ease up on the unnecessary products and find out what your hair likes and needs. I am currently at bra strap length and I really just went back to taking care of my hair like when I was a kid. My hair was long and thick and my mom wasn't worried about no poo or curly girl method or anything else lol. I keep my hair braided, don't comb it that much, don't over wash and don't use a lot of products either.

[@miss.g-shun-w]

Ms. Kamisha turns every hair myth and rule on its head and still has gorgeous of hair.

[@starkeybiz]

I enjoyed this video. Your hair is absolutely gorgeous. That shine is AMAAAAAAZING!!! And I like that you didn't push anything particular but told what exactly you do and don't do. It showed that its really about patience and proper hair care practices. I would absolutely love to see your hair in it's natural state.

[@MarleneMotivates]

Genes, diet and a good regimen make healthy hair. Nice to see some inspiration.

[@katyarnold6757]

Exactly! jahsloved1

[@heavensentg.9982]

I'm "SOO LOVING THIS STORY!""SHE IS KEEPING IT REAL!"🤗😏😉

[@therapy102]

That's actually really inspiring to see someone who does not use the suggested methods of natural hair care with "BC" length =D

[@davinehill3448]

BEAUTIFUL, the hair, the skin and the smile!!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Davine Hill Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@RiaNag2024]

Idfwu Idgaf Thank you!

[@statenmichelle]

I don't ever comment on KZbin videos, but I absolutely loved this video!! It wasn't overly serious & you both were very down to earth & informative! Of all the videos I've watched this has been the most relatable, enjoyable & entertaining lol!! Thank you!!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Wow!!!! First off let me say that I am honored that you took the time out to post a comment here *does my happy dance lol*. Secondly, thanks sooo much for joining the family as well as your supportive feedback.. I really appreciate it :)

[@ItsMild]

This interview goes to show when we aren't worried about our hair it grows when we use all of these products and manipulate too much it will grow but not as much as we want it. Very helpful! Both of you are gorgeous!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@CkeyBeauty]

So glad to hear it and Congrats on your journey!!!! Thanks for tuning in :)

[@TweetyBird4551]

You guys are such a cute team, you had me laughing!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Laurel Harper Thanks so much and thanks for watching ;)

[@TweetyBird4551]

C Key Oh no, thank YOU! There's something to be learned from your video no matter what the race or hair type. I wash my hair more often than was discussed -- way more often, and I wear it pulled back for work and loose the rest of the time, especially for bed -- but I'm trying co-washing (had to Google it, lol!) for the first time and there's just so much common sense said here that I really believe most women can learn something from this vid and benefit from it. Thanks again, C Key! And thanks to your friend. You two are such a great team! :)

[@kimmie2422]

[@kimmie2422]

Laurel Harper pou

[@SoulKisses76]

Thank you for posting this C Key! She has a wonderfully simple routine. My hair was the longest when I left it alone. You both have beautiful hair btw. And I LOVE your glasses!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you and thanks so much for watching :)

[@neghiethervil5606]

She should make her own deep conditioner! Mayo, plain yogurt and a bit of olive oil. Warm it up, wrap it up rinse it out. Works for my baby! I especially love that this interview wasn't about telling all women that they can grow the same hair length. It was mostly all about health and that's what it should always be about, no matter what length you have. Genetics does play a role.

[@JourneythruCourtney]

Her hair is gorgeous! Thank you for emphasizing that what works for you might not work for someone else a lot of people don't seem to understand that. Everyone's hair journey is not going to be the same.

[@CkeyBeauty]

I agree, thanks for watching :)

[@missj3434]

She has very pretty hair but I dont think it has anything to do with the products she uses. It is probably just genetics. my mother's hair is the same length. No matter how short she cuts it- as long as she takes care of it, (sometimes even if she doesn't) it will always grow back to her original length. *KanyeShrug..

[@kamikam4864]

Miss J. Miss J., not the Kanye Shrug!! LOL...seriously, for me, less is more for hair and I had to learn that. I agree, no product has contributed to my growth - none. But those products help retain moisture, combact breakage, and of course are great for styling. I focus on health and retaining length...

[@missj3434]

Lol...couldn't resist!!! Thanks so much for being honest.Ppl always pretend there's some miracle hair growth product you can use to grow hair down to their waists. Sometimes it's just genetics...In your case, BEA-U-TI-FUL HAIR!!!! Keep up the good work girlfriend!!! 👍🏾😍☺️☺️👏🏾

[@kimmie2422]

Pwk

[@alwayzonehunnit2985]

OMG, Kamisha YOU ARE SOOOOO gorgeous!!! Love your hair, smile... lol thank you ladies for doing the interview. I'm doing my hair journey for myself and my 4 yr old daughter; I started ours fall 2012 but after my brother's death I stopped awhile to grieve then slowly picked back up the regimne. I will be following you both. Have a blessed day as well. :) -Love from Ms Williams (Milwaukee, WI)

[@KBProject16]

My gosh her hair is gorgeous! And her teeth are beautiful. I'm jealous!

[@fivedee5D]

By what I can guess, she lets so much build up on her hair both natural scalp oil and product, it is always in a state of moisture as protection and never can crack, break or get dry in any way.

[@LadyGds]

Her hair is beautiful. My sister has hair like that, but her hair is at bra length. She also drowns it in grease and wear A LOT of protective styling. So this will be my sister in say...4-6 years. Good for you girl. X

[@JoyAndToyTV]

What I love more than anything in this entire video is the honesty... She is so real and I love it!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you, we keep it real over here :) Thanks for watching.

[@saturner7799]

....and they say black women don't have naturally long hair....If they do, it most be fake.

[@summerbreeze340]

sa Phelps how stupid you sound referring to what " they" say its pretty damn sad how many grown ass adults continue to listen to the opinions of others......Utilize your own brain and fuck what " they say"

[@amirahcunningham5503]

there are alot of people who don't use good products but still have naturally long beautiful hair like hers. If you want it long and healthy, you'll get it there. i don't really think genetics come into play anywhere but things like growth rate, porosity and things of that nature. she has long hair because the things she did worked for her hair, so idk what everyone else is talking about.

[@Him-Her-They-Who-Cares]

SO...she does the opposite of what the "proper hair care regime stipulates!" This goes to show that product lines know how to target desperate ethnicities when it comes to growing hair long & FAST! She basically just shut a lot of KZbinr's down! The reality of it is...what works for you, works for you and YES genetics play a huge role in ur hairs growth potential. All those expensive products out there still might not be the end of all end. Sometimes the cheaper products works just fine...but u need to be in good health and LEAVE UR HEAD ALONE!

[@J4L4N]

Did you really need to see this to know that?

[@Him-Her-They-Who-Cares]

Shut up. You're bored!

[@Dreamer7est]

I totally agree with all you're saying. I had heat damaged my curls though, and when I tried a protein treatment it instantly revived my curls back. I was so amazed! Lots of stuff we can find in our kitchen plays a vital role in having healthy hair that grow. Less heat from those flat irons and curling wands really grew my hair fast. I chopped it off recently in March where it wasn't neck length, now it is a bit pass my shoulders.

[@wildhorse_untamed]

Your response is EXACTLY Right!! I look at some KZbin videos about Black hair products & hair and it seems like a big science experiment!! Like our hair is so difficult to handle. And we purchase all them products mostly made and produce by Caucasus. This video shows that simple and to the point, one can get the same results, if not better.

[@427skies]

I used to think that my hair wouldn't grow that long when I was relaxed (it was ear length), but I'm natural and my hair is almost at my bra. My goal is tailbone length. My growth has just taken off in the past 6 months though...I wonder if it's because I'm doing something right. Haha. Just checked today, and my hair comes to the top of my boobs.

[@CkeyBeauty]

Congrats on your growth! Thanks for watching :)

[@gennygengen2165]

Raw shea butter is the best heat protectant for flat ironing natural hair. It smoothes the curls out so you dont have to make multiple passes with the iron.

[@lavadava69]

+nikkia albert but when I use it to blow my hair out , my hair is dull and not shiny.

[@jenthoby1107]

Any specific brand of raw shea butter you recommend?

[@gennygengen2165]

+Jen Dev'Ron i honestly don't know the brands but i do find that the yellow worked better than the white. the white made my hair puffy and unimaginable. but keep in mind that different hair textures and drying techniques warrant different results. id like to know how it worked for you.b

[@daniellemontgomery5354]

She is such a gorgeous black woman, with beautiful hair and skin. She seems to have really taken great care of herself. I love your channel, beautiful, positive and educated sister...

[@CkeyBeauty]

Awwwww thanks so much, we truly appreciate it, and thanks for tuning in :)

[@glamdawling]

Wow her hair is beautiful! You can tell she takes good care of it.

[@PrettyJones02]

I love how real this video was. So many people act like you have to do things a certain way to get great results. My hair grew long when I was relaxed doing the same things she said she did. Now I'm natural and I feel like although there are better methods of hair care, some are unconventional but more suitable for the individual. I love iiiit. I comb from the scalp too and use gel and my hair grows just fine shoooot

[@Justrelaxx101]

Her hair is gorgeous. I have to be honest, I'm feeling so discouraged after watching this. Its been about 7 years for me and I'm nowhere close to that length. I'm sorry but considering her maintenence routine, genetics have to play a role. Lucky girl :-)

[@kamikam4864]

+musiclover1971 So you had me at genetics! If you follow me on social media you already now how I feel about that word. My friend, focus on healthy hair and proper hair care and you will see growth, promise! Yes, genetics play a role in the rate at which your hair grows and your hair texture, color, etc. But the average person's hair grows at least 4 inches a year. If you are not seeing growth, that means you are not retaining length. This is where genetics plays NO part....you must implement practices that will help you retain your length. Don't be discouraged...thank you for watching.

[@williamsj4852]

Kami Kam love that 😀

[@summerbreeze340]

musiclover1 wow another woman obsessed with hair.... And when their diagnosed with cancer & lose their hair they panic when its not that serious so what??? Get over it

[@adriananaija87]

Do not be discouraged, these tips work, I am hip length and I have the kinkiest hair on the spectrum 4c. U just have to figure out what works for you. And pray about it.

[@reneebee8693]

This is THE BEST hair video on KZbin. Point. Blank. Period!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks sooo much!! I really do appreciate that :)

[@kamikam4864]

That means a lot! Thank you!

[@PaintMixin]

Omg i love her hair and attitude she's so real

[@kamikam4864]

Thank you!

[@opaldenja80]

This is the most honest interview I ever seen! LOL! I like how she keeps it real about what she does. Her hair is so beautiful.

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@kimberlykimble2]

I love this video! And the reason I love it is because her hair regimen is very impromptu and not "cast in stone". What I have learned on this Healthy Hair journey is you have to do what works best for your hair. For instance....my hair works better with a lil heat as opposed to no heat at all. Ie, I blow dry after I wash. I love products that contain peppermint. I think I notice more growth when use them. On the other hand, my daughter gets maximum growth from products that contain carrot oil. Lol@ not being able to find the wide tooth comb. THAT IS THE STORY OF MY LIFE! I use the same cheap comb she described...although I do comb from the bottom. I just think this natural hair journey is subjetable and the key is finding what works best for you.

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks so much for your feedback and I'm super glad you loved the video! Thanks so much for tuning in :)

[@TheShomba10]

hi! I just want to say, my hair grew midback lenght in 3 years and I used silicones, sulfates, minerals, I used combs, ditangled my hair while dry, coloured, bleached and used heat more than 3 times a year. The secrect to growing long hair is knowing your hair limits and what your hair can stand and what it likes. I dont heat and colour often and I dont always use a heat protectant, I have never experienced heat damage. I do all this because I know what my hair likes and what it doesnt and how much of what it can take. To help your hair grow you have to listen to your hair, is that simple. I just found this video today, I have a 16 month old, and no time to go grocery shopping and read all the ingredients in a bottle, I have no time to Do DIY deep conditioners and no time for a regime that takes all day. thanks for keeping this real and showing that is not bad not to follow the "rules" as long as it works for you and you aren't hurting anybody.

[@TheShomba10]

I do* heat and colour often

[@IamMamaT]

You both have some white teeth. But anyway this a great video to watch more than once.

[@cerezajigsaw5678]

Antonio & Theresa popo u ok

[@chiefmagistrate]

Oh my days!!! You have some beautiful hair, i want BC hair length too, but i keep watching it grow, did the big chop August 2013, lol, i am so impatient, but i'm learning to relax (not the hair, lol), chill on the watching. Love Kami's chilled attitude to her hair, if it aint broke don't fix it, works for her.

[@AnnaBTsatokeEmpress]

so good to hear you use grape seed, olive and castor oils... try sweet almond, coconut an avocado oils... in your grease...

[@JODITruly]

Thank you so much....I recently did my BC and have been watching youtubers describe their routine, and its been a struggle. I'm so glad to hear Kamisha say she doesn't have a routine because I fine I'm like her when it comes to the rules. Thank you, you found a new subbi in me.

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks for watching, and thanks for joining the family. So glad we were able to help :)

[@kiowells]

Clearly her hair growth s genetic... beautiful long hair...... wish it was that easy for me

[@la1122]

Ahahha, one of the best vids so far I've seen: no-nonsense, straight to the point; know your hair and do what works for you while still being informed of the so-called 'dos & don't' :)

[@Iamjulinda]

Kamisha you are a beautiful young lady and your hair is gorgeous. Blessings from Atlanta. One area I wish you girls would have touched on is your diet. Everyone is so obsessed with what you put on your hair and tend to forget its what we put in our bodies that shows on the outside. Lots of love from Atlanta.

[@nomessnostress]

What I love about her is she proves that everyone is different! She has long healthy hair doing what works for her!!!!!! Love it!

[@brittxny.x3282]

her hair was absolutely gorgeous

[@charisma516]

OMG!!! Your hair is beautiful!! I think the MOST important fact that u mentioned is that u leave your hair alone after styling it. That along with moisture is key for African American women to grow long hair.

[@ms.woodard8714]

You two are so pretty

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks so much for tuning in and thank you on Kamishas behalf. Thigh length?!?! OMG

[@katyarnold6757]

I love!!!!!!!!!! this lady hair. It's so thick and long and moisturize. And jet black. It's healthy black hair. I'm inspired to get my hair that healthy and good condition.

[@sadesays3894]

Ughhhh her hair is soooo BEAUTIFULLL!!!

[@PlantedBrands]

The key is stay out your head

[@gracenmg]

Enjoyed this video, ya'll were having fun! :) Other than low manipulation, I cant help but think that it really helps that she didn't have years and years of relaxers damaging her scalp. A lot of us who decide to go natural have had years of chemicals beforehand (took my scalp years to recover :/ Having said that some ppl's hair grows quite long with relaxers! Her advice at the end makes sense to just do what works for you and stick with it :)

[@CkeyBeauty]

That is an awesome point, that I hadn't thought of... Thanks so much for your feedback and thanks for watching :)

[@VanBoogie]

Your hair is freaking gorgeous! Btw I comb from the roots too. I don't comb from the ends. Doesn't work for me. And not ashamed of it lol.

[@RenLostStimpy]

I loved this video. It is amazing how Kamisha applies her own unique methods so humbly and has beautiful hair. I am natural and learning that it is okay to break the "rules" of the natural community and do what works for me. The part about the wide tooth comb had me dying...now that's some stuff for ya. Be Blessed!

[@kamikam4864]

Thanks for watching!

[@melb3136]

I love this video because it goes to show u that all these myths and "KZbin stylists" methods aren't necessary

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you and thanks so much for watching :)

[@zoejulianneify]

I think this video really proves the power of low manipulation styles. She said she would rock one style all week and not touch it, wrap it at night and leave it alone! I'm so motivated! I've also realized this in my journey, in the beginning we want to do the most, hand always in our hair to restyle and all these things we think are good for our hair, and they are but.......leaving your hair alone and protected 90%of the time works wonders! It is a sacrifice though, especially if you're used to looking amazing with new hair styles every other day.....it is so worth it though. When you've been rockin a boring bun forever goin crazy then one day you take your hair down and BAM its waist length😆

[@arieboo573]

Sorry this is really long, I got excited seeing a black female with this much length! 😄😄 Omg!!!!!!!! I hope to get there.... I just started my healthy hair journey like a year or so ago and still trying to find the absolute perfect products for my hair. I'm slowly getting there. My goal is to get to your friend's length or at least a little bit lower than midback. Right now I have box braids to gain length without me having to touch it every day and I have until the end of the month to see where I'm at. What tips can you both give me? I moisturize every few days when my scalp feels like it's going to flake soon, I use extra virgin olive oil, Africa's Best herbal oil, and the Cantu Shea butter products. And when my hair is our I do Bantu knots or two strand twists.

Check out Shima's channel

[@arieboo573]

Idk what the name of that channel is or what it's about.

[@tativone]

Shima is Afro Cuban woman and also empowers women of color and also has waist length hair, and shares info on how to grow and care for afro textured hair...you previously mentioned you liked seeing long afro textured hair, Shima's channel is dedicated to women with afro textured hair...

[@GlamorGrowthTravelwithMica]

Congratulations. So proud of you. You inspire us all.

[@tatianaowenx]

Wow her hair is beautiful!

[@colettewarren7129]

OMG I have been looking for this for years this is my first video I watched about natural hair and I am still going because i am finally waist length

[@jchidi]

Its genetics. If it was this easy for African Americans to maintain her hair length everyone would have tailbone length hair..She even said she doesnt do anything special, only used to wash her hair once a month.. Its in her genes to have long hair

[@jchidi]

***** Its still in her genes!! There's white people that can't even grow out their hair that long!! Its not always just about how well you take care of your hair..

[@alasawinters786]

yes, this proves that you can't listen to every one. what works for some may not work for others. love this video.

[@godsflame2]

Loved it!! Ive noticed for years that women who do nothing to their hair have more of it. Lol. Washing once a month may sound crazy but if u can get away with it helps to retain more length because its less detangling and manipulation. Its why I went to once every 2 or 3 weeks.

[@Ebizzill]

:raises my hand: ....... i have no shame

[@pdiddly7397]

so true....and folks wonder how i have long hair! lmao

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thank you and thanks for tuning in ;)

[@rachelfapo.8362]

She reminds me of how my Grandma used to take care of my hair; water and grease. And my hair was long when she took care of it, lol.

[@armyqt]

For all the people saying it's genetics let me give you a scoop. EVERYONE (including black women) can grow long hair. It's our hair practices that prevent the hair from maintaining the growth we see each month. The key thing to her hair health is she has been natural her whole life AND low manipulation. I had a friend from Belize and she had very beautiful hair which was relaxed and very long. She had a very simple routine as well and used all the new no-no products. The key to her hair growth was she rinsed it with water everyday (moisture) and left her cheapie conditioner in and bunned it. We were in the military. I started to do the same thing and my hair grew really long as well. So LOW MANIPULATION and moisture is the key. Which this young lady gets a lot of with her oils. Gorgeous hair and I love the interviewers glasses. :-)

[@tinawhite3404]

Make more video because so many people think black women bald. under there weave.But. there are women with beautiful hair and actionly there.

[@raqueldianetv4037]

I'm pretty sure she's just genetically prone to grow beautiful hair like that...It's kind of like body type...you're genetically predisposed to being built a certain way, of course with dedication to a workout regimen, you can alter your body shape and it's the same with how we grow hair or the lack of...sorry, there are no short cuts guys, you're either predisposed to having beautiful hair or you just make do with what your genetics have given you! Love yourselves regardless. Great video...thanks for sharing, she's beautiful!

[@CreateYourBestVersion]

This was done in 2013 can you do an update? Did she experience more growth doing the natural healthy hair regimen?

[@CkeyBeauty]

+kari Gaski The update video is in the description box

[@michaelam4089]

+C Key Are you mixed? Also does black people have to be mixed like Caussian people background or Indian to grow long hair?

[@rarensheshe]

+Michaela no

[@NurseShayRN]

Michaela no. The media has warped western culture (American/Canadians/U.K etc) into believing our hair can't grow mainly due to Black Americans in the 20th Century wanting "straight hair" or hair that resembles the idiotic phrase "good hair". So for decades they used harmful hot irons & TOXIC relaxers that many didn't know how to use properly and for the majority, it caused slow growth and immense breakage. Thank GOD more and more blacks around the world are becoming more conscious of what's right for OUR needs and not how main(white) society thinks we should look.

[@TheShomba10]

Michaela M ummm no!

[@brwnsknbabydoll]

her hair is soooo shiny!! love it!

[@AHSongbird27]

I enjoyed the video, very informative. I am starting my hair journey as of today Dec 2, 2013. My hair is cut short as you can see in my pic, a lil longer now, but looking forward. You are very humble and I appreciate your candidness. You rock Camiesha!! Thx Lady

[@locdbyki6592]

Tailbone is my new goal! I am 1 inch from waist length so I have about 6 inches to go!

[@AHSongbird27]

Yay Kisha. Honey I have many inches to go

[@locdbyki6592]

That's ok girl, your hair grows fast anyway so before you know you will be inching closer and closer. Focus on the short term goals (that's how I made it this far).

[@AHSongbird27]

I dont have any short term goals. Will you help me establish some. I never even thought to do so.

[@locdbyki6592]

Of course!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks for tuning in girly :)

[@smoothgroov]

love that braid!

[@CkeyBeauty]

Thanks for sharing and thanks for the compliment. Congrats on your hair journey and will do :)

[@avidlearner3576]

Back to the basics for me. Just bought a steamer because I'm protein sens. and low porosity hair and I hoped that would make my hair "so soft and manageable" like everyone was saying. That thing didn't do much of anything. My hair tangles at the slightest hint of protein and it is always dry. I used to use regular brown eco gel every day slicking my hair back in a bun and my hair was growing like crazy. Then I went crazy chopping it off and got locks. 10 years later here I am with APL hair and buying willy nilly products that most of the time SUCK.

[@MzRawndi]

It sounds like we have the same type of hair, I'm still in search (2 years) of some product that can soften these tresses other than a texturizer. This hair is tough and very protein sensitive and very low porosity. Good luck and if you ever find something let me know lol.

[@avidlearner3576]

***** Hey girl I found a great blog from another sista who has the same hair- Proteinsensitivehair.wordpress.com I was so hopeful I ordered the Free and Clear shampoo Conditioner- both are Protein free and the Neutrogena triple moisture leave in. Check out the blog. Hope this helps! Btw, Go Pisces! Woot woot.

[@MzRawndi]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it and good luck with the products too :)

[@MzRawndi]

Funny you mentioned the clay, I recently purchased the Terressentials hair wash but I haven't used it yet. Still on the hunt though! I hope I like it.

[@242dashyboo]
