HAIR ROUTINE (UPDATED) (6 SIMPLE Steps) (Transitioning Hair)

Here's my Updated Hair Routine / Hair Regimen which helps me to manage my new growth as I transition from relaxed to natural hair. I mentioned in my transitioning to natural hair update video, that I would do a separate one showing you the methods I apply to help me manage my new growth, whilst transitioning. These methods can also be applied to those with relaxed hair, who are on long relaxer stretches.
Here are the steps;
Step 1 - Moisturise My New Growth
Step 2 - Massage Coconut Oil into New Growth.
Step 3 - Detangle my hair
Step 4 - Moisturise my hair
Step 5 - Seal my hair
Step 6 - Baggy My Hair
Hope you find the video useful!

Your hair still looks nice and healthy in this state. Thanks for the tips. I love your videos.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

Thanks and you're welcome. Good to hear you enjoy my vids 😊

[@nosillaxoc]

Your hair is going to be outrageously thick when it grows all the way out. Beautiful!

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+nosillaxoc Thanks! Yeah, tell me about it! 😳

[@missdesireindependance5194]

World of curl products is a live saver. Im streching my relaxer for 6 months. Thinking of going natural but fear the starting over phase. Keep the videos comming. Good luck on your journey.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

Yes, I love Word of Curls. But I hear you about the whole transitioning process, it's definitely a challenging one, but see how you feel as time goes by. But thank you!

[@gillianrileydouglas5185]

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Patty Phattty (Spiffygyal) Thank you! Yeah, my roots are getting so thick, so I can only imagine what my natural hair will be like 😳😄

[@treasureafolabi5646]

nice tips Sis. your hair is looking gorgeous.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+treasure afolabi Awww...thanks so much.

[@marjac82]

This is great!! Im texlaxing and Ive been neglecting/was still in the process of figuring out how to get especially the middle of my hair not to be so dry by week's end after bantu knotting or braiding. Thanks!! Im gonna try those 2 products mentioned.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

Yes, give it a try. I'm sure it'll make a difference.

[@HealthyGemini]

Do you have a video for how you achieved this style and the upkeep for weekly and nighttime routine ?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+HealthyGemini I don't have one for this actual look, but do have a 'Braid out' video on my channel on how I create my braid outs. But again, the upkeep is the same as mentioned in my previous comment.

[@yanifranco2447]

Hello! you have a video of how you do that hairstyle or hairstyles that we can do when we are in transition , because for me it is a bit difficult me hairstyles, I have 15 weeks since my last relaxer . a greeting from Dominican Republic.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+yani coral Hey, yes I did a video on this braid out style some years ago now (before I cut my hair) but I used different products to what I use now. Overall how I create the style is more or less the same; kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3XNaZ95dtCWb8k

[@yanifranco2447]

ok. thanks.

[@sweetfm2008]

I hate those knots!!! I take my time too when it comes to those single strand knots!!!! Question, don't you hate when you're gentle and you hear a hair break off!!!! I freak out when I hear it!!! LOL!!!! I'm stretching (21 weeks post) and plan to relax for Easter. Great video and much success on your transition!!!!

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+sweetfm2008 OMG...I hate them! 😡 It's so funny that you mentioned that, thought I was the only one 😆 I get so mad and my blood starts to boil. But I'm at a stage where I'm getting use to it (unfortunately). Anyway, thank you and hope all is going well with your hair.

[@chaden1219]

Several steps and products, i feel that my leave in conditionner silicon mix bamboo is achieving the same results, like an all in one product . Let’s see in the long run but so far so far so good...

[@tajjy2001]

Hi, for relaxed hair would you need to use a protein conditioner aswell as the (aphogee) protein treatment?

[@melz1571]

How did you get that curl pattern?, it looks really nice

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+melz1571 Thank you. I did a braid out.

[@Younggurlmajic]

+Healthy Afro Hair what size were your braids and did u use curlers at the end?

[@janayjohnson6669]

you are soooo pretty!

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Janay Johnson Awww...thank you ☺️

[@Kaka-uu8vl]

What is better the relaxer or the transitioning and why? explain for both thanks :)

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Kisten Williams Not quite sure of your question. Do you mean whether it's better to have relaxed or natural hair?

[@Kaka-uu8vl]

yes

[@annmarie_everbless3378]

your look very nice love it, question wan u do your hair the way u do it in the video, do u comb the next day?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Annmarie Gumbs Awww...thanks ☺️ I only really comb it when I'm re-doing my braid out or on wash days, so about once or twice a week. Other than that, it's just finger detangling.

[@Chanestaa]

after a year box braiding over and over again I'm ready to leave them out and just wear my hair! Maybe I'm even gonna cut the remaining straight ends, but It depends on how much my hair has grown. I'm gonna wrap my hair also like this from now on. Thanks for inspiring me! ps. I'm about to make my own deep conditioner do you know if banana, avocado, olive oil, coconut oil, aloë vera (pure from the plant) and honey is a good combination?

[@unknownx2k7]

Yeah make sure you blend and then sieve the bannana and avocado first.

[@Chanestaa]

oh okay I will do that, thanks!

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Chanesta H You're welcome, glad you liked the vid. But yeah, see what your hairs looking like and then make a decision on what you want to do. I'm sure you'll have a nice length you can work with. As for your conditioner mix, sounds good 👍🏾

[@Chanestaa]

+Healthy Afro Hair Thank you!

[@susi9240]

Amazing video 😀! This is really helpful. I have a question. It would be really nice, if you could answer 😊. So i relaxed my hair for 4 years twice a year and now i realized that on the left side of my head is a space where all the hair is gone. Only the new hair is still there but i never realized any hair loss or hair lying around on the floor. Its really strange. Do you thing its damage from the relaxing? And sry for my english 😂

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+mimi pupu Ohhh...glad you enjoyed it 😊 That's really strange. I'm not sure if it's due to relaxing, especially since the rest of your hair is ok. Have you placed any added tension on that side? Like wrapping your hair often, starting with that side? or brushing?

[@tamikahooper3441]

Do i put moisturize on my hair while its still wet or do i wait until it is dry?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

If you're doing it daily, then it's best done dry. If you're doing it after washing your hair, it can be done when the hair is damp (say around 80-90% dry) or when it's dry.

[@anaismbanza4311]

your hair looks much beter and healthy with out the realxer 👆❤

[@joanikens]

I have transitioning hair as well and no matter what I seem to do, my hair always feels dry. Even when I put oil, shea butter or a leave in, my hair doesn't seem to absorb any of it. My hair, while oily to the touch, still feels dry. What am I doing wrong? Should I do a protein treatment?

[@jadaanikaa]

you probably have low porosity hair meaning your hair doesnt let moisture in what I recommend is steaming your hair to open up the hair follicle then apply any product you need to

[@joanikens]

+Jadalynn Charles Yeah I have been doing that as of last week and it has been helping a little bit

[@jessalynk5545]

deep condition over night and apply oil while ur hair is wet

[@HealthyAfroHair]

Yep, definitely sounds like you have low porosity. Good advice about steaming. You can carry out a moisturising treatment whilst doing that to allow it to penetrate, injecting moisture. Also when moisturising your hair, apply oil after, to help lock it in.

[@joanikens]

Thanks guys! Any product recommendations? My hair doesn't seem to like shea moisture, ORS, camille rose naturals, cantu shea butter, eSalon, entwine couture...I'm losing hope lol. the only detangler that has worked for me is kinky curly not today and as a styler hydratherma naturals.

[@briannahouston3217]

To transition from relaxed to natural hair, do you have to cut it?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

No, you don't. I just thought it would be easier because I had long hair and dealing with knots & tangles would have been too much.

[@annmarie_everbless3378]

but my hair was all way thin, but realize that since I stop texlaxing n it growing out the root it thicker now, it the normal?

[@maryamyusuf660]

+Annmarie Gumbs yes

[@TheStinalee201120]

Yes very normal. My natural hair is 3 times thicker than my chemically treated hair ever was.

[@fitnessfan13]

Your hair is so thick and lovely. I'm not an expert on transitioning from relaxed hair to natural, however, if you've not already checked out curly proverbz channel I would encourage you. Her hair is amazing and the products she uses is great for natural (and relaxed) hair.

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+fitnessfan13 Thank you! Ok, cool I'll check her out, thanks for letting me know.

[@annmarie_everbless3378]

OK thanks, so using your fingers is better?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+Annmarie Gumbs It can be, especially with transitioning hair and having to deal with two textures.

[@annmarie_everbless3378]

look, because I have all way been natural but last year I texlax my hair, but I don't like it, so I'm back to my natural hair

[@themcintoshmanor]

What is your ultimate goal? Are you going to big chop or just transition until a desired length of natural hair?

[@HealthyAfroHair]

+C Mac Ideally, I'd like to try and transition long term (at least 18 months) but it depends on how I manage with my hair.

[@brittanyudegbu9327]

Coconut oil isn't a sealent

[@shmunbun6604]

That's just too many products tbh
