I tell black women all the time, it comes down to length retention. Properly moisturized & low manipulation is key for Afro textured hair. There’s no magic oils or vitamins. And just because our hair can “shape shift” into so many styles doesn’t mean that we should. I’m tired of this false narrative that Afro hair is so strong & can handle all these tight braids & chemicals. When our hair is literally the MOST fragile. Your hair will thrive!!❤❤

This is so true East Asians’ judge of “good hair” is fine hair (ie. even if the vast majority of us have straight hair, they don’t want it to be coarse) and that fine hair is often more similar to European hair. I can’t confirm it but it’s very possible that this beauty standard that is specific to us pre-dates European colonizers reaching East Asia When my mom did my hair as a kid, she would complain that I didn’t get her fine hair, and that although I had more hair than her, it was coarse and less malleable

And the many different types of black hair that I didn’t know. And yes many people perm their hair because it is so straight and flat so sometimes we want something different (I didn’t even know some of the perm done in asia is with “relaxers”! This is my first time having a perm done and I know that you can’t dye your hair if you use relaxers so I will double check if I want to dye my hair and if they ask if I had relaxers, I will ask them to do a test strand since there might be a chance (this video is so informative 😊

-It’s mainly because the loc has to get heavy enough for gravity to start pulling it downward, which shows off that length. -Firm believer that newbie locs can be stretched (gently) just like loose curly hair, especially if individual locs are are less dense. -Example is moisturizing them and then pulling them into 5-8 bubble ponytails and letting that sit for a few hours. Release them, and voila! Greater presentation of length! P.s. I wishhhh I could lock up like so many of my loved ones, but my hair is too fine to handle the weight, and lots of space between each follicle. So it would just be scalp and strings 😂😂😂

A really insightful video, as always. I lived in India from 2013-2017, as a young teen, because of my parents work. Aside from indians I had friends from Indonesia, Nepal, Laos, Japan and Angola in our international school. I know most of those countries are in South Asia but their hair also has characteristics you mentioned. One of my laotian friends asked me to do dutch braids once and her hair was soo pin straight that it would slide easily and I couldn't grip it. Our angolan classmate did manage to braid it since she had more technique and experience than me. Indians had their hair in one or two simple braids as a protective style and our school didn't allow artifical colors so their hair was very well cared for. I would only let my hair out on special occasions, like traditional school dances were they included us foreigners, and it was easy to do hairstyles on my head that lasted without the need of pins and hairspray. That was also around the time I came across the Natural Hair Movement on KZbin and, thanks to it, I learned to care for my hair and properly style it before the shows.

Being of East Asian and African American descent myself this was interesting to watch. I see my hair was destined to be low porosity no matter what. 😂 In my case, the hair that grows from my temples on either side is very silky and smooth in texture. The rest is either sharpie width curly or wavy. A little leave in and gel is enough to get the hold I need but usually my hair will fall flat after three days, so I either wash it or wear it in a braid or a bun until wash day. It's interesting how my hair took on both qualities of each. It is very resistant to water and damage, but can easily be styled. I stopped flat ironing my hair ten years ago. Until then I straightened it every three or four days like clockwork; my hair was always long and healthy but it took so much time I just can't be bothered with it now. Now I just style my bangs and either braid it or bun it.

Another difference is cost. My jaw dropped when I learned how much most of my black friends spend. I’m like “I can probably use dish soap on my hair”-so while I get annoyed with the flat hair I have (too long to still stick straight up), I do like that one shampoo bottle a year is basically all I need.

Not true. It can also be low cost. If they spend alot of money, it is because they want to. I have afro hair and all I use is pantene classic clean shampoo and sweet almond oil as leave in. They do not NEED alot of products in their hair or expensive products. Depends what u want to do. Europeans/ Whites can also spend alot of money on their hair as many go to hair dressers regularly where they often spend at least 100 euro or usd. I have white friends that spend alot of money going to hairdresser and it shocks me. How much u spend on your hair is individual and independent of your race.

Black ppl learning other races get relaxers.....does nothing for us though. Relaxers hasn't been a part of Asian, white, and nonblack cultures for generations, like it has for black ppl. Nor does has it psychologically effected other races like it did black girls and women. So, really, we are "the only ones". Which is why we had to have a whole movement just to learn the basics of our hair. It's good to compare cultures, but remember not to conflate the two.

I don’t mean literally the exact same experience I mean the fact that no culture is perfect or has issues they go through. The fact that it isn’t copy paste exactly like black people doesn’t mean there is nothing to learn from it. Some of y’all are really ignorant and manipulative. You do nothing for black people by trying to constantly dismiss the learning of anything from outside our community. It is life changing for a black girl to learn that she is not the only race of women that has hair issues. It is eye opening to learn that the grass isn’t greener on the other side.

@@nopeninja9765 "I wish black people would take a look at other cultures"..."And this is my problem with some of yall"....Those two statements, one in your original post, the other in your response, is why I made my comment/why I'm glad I made my comment. You'd have to be a complete moron to not know that other races have hair struggles, we don't need to "look into other cultures" to know that. What we need to know/do is not put our own ppl down, and conflate similar issues other races have with our own simultaneously. Which is what you actually did, which is why you later said "not to diminish", because you already did. Also, in the video, she said Asians short spiked hair, looked like "straight afros" when short and spikey....and it does not...we don't have to conflate reality, to address and learn about hair issues, and that calling/comparing straight short Asian hair to an afro, was definitely conflating. As a black person who is in to other cultures, staying grounded in my own and learning about my own has helped me to not conflate issues. Once again, learning about Asian perms years ago, made me realize they do it for fasion/trends, but black ppl were doing it for life.There's a difference. Learning Asians relaxed their hair, as a black girl, was in no way, shape, or form "life changing".

I learned by being in diverse environments that weren't competitive (in the beauty dept). On one hand you had teenage boys and adult men (unfortunately mostly black) putting non-black women and their hair/features on a pedestal. On the other hand ,I'm in the classroom, ladie's room, and locker room with these women while they're complaining about everything about themselves. And of course, the women who buy into a racial beauty hiearchy will never want someone they consider to be lower on the totem pole, to know about any of their struggles.

I loved my perms and was never trying to look white. I just didn’t know about how to take care of African hair nor did my mom. Right now it best manageable when it’s short. Long is ponytail time.

This was interesting and informative. As one with African hair, I always thought there was a difference between straight Asian hair and straight European hair. I didn't know about the different growth pattern of Asian hair. One question, why is having "waterproof" hair considered a "pro" for African hair?

When your hair is too saturated with water, the follicles swell. If this happens too many times, your hair fibers will weather and become very weak. Water saturation breaks down the structure of hair. In fact, water saturation breaks down all types of materials/fibers (cotton, wool satin etc.)

@GreenBeauty Thank you! I get it! So that's why water turns my type 4 hair into type 1 hair until it dries. And why my clothes go limp when I put them in the washer!

My texture is weird. I’m black but I don’t have Afro texture. It’s bone straight in back without perms or straightening and wavy in the front. Like a mixture of textures. It’s hard to wear it wavy because straight back and hard to wear straight because wavy curly front. It’s been like this since I was a baby

Great video! Regarding the waterproof ability of Afro hair, how does this hair type benefit from more oil production and thus have a "waterproof ability" on the outside if the oil cannot get to the ends of the hair because of the different bends? I assumed this benefit only applies to the hair close to the scalp. One of the reasons we tend to emphasize using more oils on Afro hair is because of the impaired ability for oil to travel to the ends naturally, making it prone to dryness. It has always been my understanding that Asian and Caucasian hair types benefit more from this because of their straighter textures (ex: their hair gets oily fast).

This is often because we don’t have the proper techniques. Green beauty has other videos showing how to maximize the natural oils we create and bring them down the strand and into use by the hair. Many of us don’t do this so our hair ends up drying out

I find all hair textures and curls fascinating. I'm mixed with European and African hair types. So I have thin straight hair until my crown then it's ticker and curly. I used to study the different cultures of hair types. Every type has its own unique beauty to it. Also, this amazing soul helped me regrow my hair back thicker because of her videos and kind words. It's been a less stressful transition.

But i thought the sebum in our hair isnt able to get past the roots usually due to the bends and twists of our curls patterns? Thats the main reason why our hair is dry.

I just discovered your channel through this video while I'm on my hair journey. As a Blasian (Black Asian-East), I've always had issues learnign about my hair primarily due to growing up without my Black family members and being the only one in my immediate family with curly hair. I'm definitely going to rewatch this video and take notes so I can review everything I've learned to figure out my hair after all of these years. Especially the part about how hair grows out and the differences there. I've noticed that curling into the skin part with my ingrown hairs on my arms and legs. Makes me wonder what's going on on my scalp. I look forward to learning more from your videos. 😄
