Thank you!!!!

For the folks who are feeling that their hair is feeling dry despite deep conditioning, see if your home/area has high mineral content in the water, aka "hard water". I use a showerhead with a replaceable filter and the difference is amazing.

I know I’m late, but I just wanted to say thank you so much for these tips. I grew up raised by a white family. Bless their hearts they had no idea what they were doing with my hair. After years of getting it straightened I decided to not let anyone touch my hair and to “care” for it myself. I would just use shampoo and conditioner run my hands through my hair, put product in and run my hands through my hair and that was it. I wouldn’t try braids or anything because I didn’t know how or felt like I would look stupid. Anyways long story short after watching your video I decided to try your styling tips and have gained so much confidence and can’t thank you enough for sharing this info and taking the time to go through everything, especially washing tips.❤❤❤

I love how simple your routine is. I've been following a few natural hair stylists who advocate for a lot of the techniques you mentioned. Your twists outs are so beautiful. Shocked to see how good it still looked on day 5

black girls are mermaids; the proof is in our wash day routine!! I twisted my hair while showering... wash, protein treatment, and conditioning... wooo, never thought I would see the day. but thinking of seun and other youtubers energized my biceps to get me through the process.

[@SeunOkimi]

[@samantharivera7747]

Your thumbnail alone warranted a "like". I absolutely love your use of "master" in how to master your natural hair. That is what some women don't realize - that it is possible to master your coils and curls. It can be a tough journey, but it's so worth it.

Great job I've been natural for 8 years and I finally know how to maintain my hair, I just keep it simple, great video

[@denorene16]

I have been natural for 10 years but only knew how to care for it for the last 4 years.

[@bangbangsomni]

For me personally, flat twisting is so much harder than cornrows. Cornrows I learned by just observingt he pattern, same thing with braids and feeling how my mom was braiding my hair. On the other hands, flat twists I cannot learn from just observing, even after watching tutorials on them my brain and hands still cannot comprehend how to do them and it's frustrating. I've heard some negative stuff about cornrows but I'm sticking with them and hope they work just fine with my hair.

[@SeunOkimi]

Thats interesting!!

[@bluebuffy5]

My mum is similar to you. She is very good at cornrows but struggles with flat twists because she is not used to the technique

[@Luckimee]

What negative things? Too pulling I'm assuming. Come to think of it I really don't see cornrows with a lot of girls

[@bangbangsomni]

@@Luckimee Yeah, I've heard that you can easily make cornrows too tight and pulling, so flat twists are better but I just can't wrap my head around how to do them

[@calebs.quarters]

You have no idea how much you help me in this video. I don't think anyone really answered the question about how to maintain and keep up with your natural throughout the week including your wash and styling. I subscribed, thank you!!!!!!😭😭😭😭

[@caneindivacrawford7278]

Ladies and gentlemen SHE is one of the best to listen to for this hair journey with natural hair ❤

[@Tismunited]

This video is really helpful. I’m autistic and I have adhd which makes doing my hair extremely challenging. I start college soon and im far away from home so my mom can’t do my hair but I also don’t have to money to pay for someone else to do my hair. Doing my hair has always been incredibly draining so I would just put braids in so I won’t have to deal with it for two months. I’m glad I took the time to watch this video because I was just going to cut all my hair off so I won’t hit a burnout in college. I’m also happy that you showed how it can last up to two weeks. One week styles add a lot of stress for me. My hair dries quickly so I’m sure I’ll have to oil my hair throughout the week but other than that are hair is pretty similar.

[@mrod87]

Everyone finding their “leave it alone” hair styles is a game changer for ethnic hair. I found mine and my hair does so well. I can’t wash n go unfortunately.

[@Virgowithavoice]

Thank you queen, you have took away so much worry. I’m excited to get started with the journey. God bless you

[@vanessamensah6653]

When I washed my hair they always felt too soft and break easily, but little did I know I needed protein treatments in my hair. Thanks for sharing this video and taking your time, it's exactly what I needed.

[@TheBnzr]

Thank you ❤ From a white auntie to a black niece who LOVES her natural hair and wants to learn how to take really good care of it.

[@BabyDigi]

I never had anyone teach me how to take care of my own hair and I lived in Ghana 😭 no one had time or energy to teach me since my mom wasn’t around and I just wanna learn 😭😭😭❤️

[@xyrphotic]

Thank you so much for this video, my partner has 4C hair but was adopted into a white family who never learned or taught him to care for his hair. He's very insecure about it and feels so lost so he just shaves his head regularly but had always wanted to do protective styles. He doesn't know where to start so I'm learning with him to help him and make him feel confident in his gorgeous natural hair.❤️

[@gloryclement3451]

Your routine so similar to mine. Personally I don't twist my hair for the shampoo process, only during the conditioning process after I detangle my hair and rinse out while is in twist. So this would act like a leave in conditioner. For styling so far I do like two low buns with mousse or sometimes with no mousse at all and that would have been my style for the week until my next wash day (once a week).

[@SeunOkimi]

I love that!!

[@priscillahumbert9320]

Thank you. I really needed this for my daughter. I never knew what to do to her hair, but I learned so much more about how to really take care of it now.

[@Omotobola]

You are such an excellent teacher. This is the only natural hair care video that I find so explanotary

[@1GoldenBreeze]

I'm a lazy natural. I don't like doing a lot of things to my hair, and I care for mine almost exactly like you do. I do apply my gel on soaking wet hair, but I diffuse it or sit under my hooded dryer for about 15-20 min. It doesn't completely dry my hair but it's dry enough to go out. I don't like bonnets either they really do mess up your style. I use a scarf or a Loc Soc and just fluff in the morning.

This was a really good refresher, NappyFu taught me this years ago, but I started doing Wave Nouveau. Girl that was my Jam, and still is.. but I couldn't find anyone to do it, and I didn't know how to do it myself, so a few months ago I did a big chop and tapered the sides, and I'm just looking up different inspo and hairstyles for 4c/4d hair, yours showed up in the queue, and it brought back the NappyFu days...

I wish I could go from wash day to wash day without adding products. 1-2 days max before my hair is dry. Great video

[@chiquitafederico296]

For me this meant my hair had product buildup and my washing process wasn't being effective.. Once I altered my wash routine I was able to not meed to refresh or add any additional product between washes.. I go 5-7days before needing to rewash.. I prefer washing my hair at least once a week, my scalp prefers it.. But when I was needing to refresh every couple days, I had product buildup..

My hair is so fone that i put a braid on each side while in the shower. I wring most of the water, and then i apply my liquid leave-in and proceed to braid. A day or so later, I apply some morrocan oil treatment to each side (leaving the braids). A few days later, i undo each braid and comb thru with my charcoal infused wet brush comb. I apply some camellia/pumpkin seed oil mix to my scalp. I further stretch each braid when I rebraid. I have been wearing headwraps as of late.

I had no idea I wasn't supposed to reapply leave in and restyle my hair every single day. Sometimes I even style it multiple times a day and it's very damaged rn. I'm going to create a simple routine based on this video and hopefully I can restore my hair

[@faithfitness6434]

You can reapply; it just depends on what your hair needs. She’s giving a generic template for hair care so her hair might not need more leave in. Someone with dryer more porous hair or in a colder climate might need to reapply.

[@annab8971]

Yeah a lot of manipulation is not best depending on your hair type. I really only comb through once a week when I wash and moisturize once a week. Then throughout the week, I try to use my fingers to manipulate. My hair breaks easy and knots easy so I just leave it alone 😪

[@SeunOkimi]

Yes, you can do anything but manipulating it so often does increase how much breakage you see! Im glad you found it helpful!

[@thyop89]

I can wash my hair with just about anything that doesn’t strip it one time. Rn, Aveeno curly kids shampoo is working for me. However, I need to use a deep conditioning masque and styling products that are moisturizing. Blue Magic Castor Oil formula grease makes my twists very juicy! I also use heat protectant spray on my natural hair for shine and to prevent it from drying out from the sun.
