I'm Nigerian and my mum used to thread my hair a lot when I was younger. When I started my natural hair journey my hair was always dry when I threaded it then I realised that I had to moisturise then thread and it was all good after that

[@Mateyena]

I really like the African threading it gives a really good stretch without the damage.

[@Veronique428]

You can use yarn for threading the hair, it’s even better for beginners, you have more to hold on your hands, sewing thread are too thin sometimes too dry for people who already have dry hair. Or you can search for anango thread, it’s an African rubber thread, it will keep the hair moisturize and the length retention better than any thread out there.

I love her accent♥️

[@candlecane]

Nigerian.

[@sejaneeandrea]

It worked really well for stretching the hair! 😍 It just seems so time consuming. 😔

[@BB-xv2xk]

Girlllll. I want your hair so bad. It's gorgeous!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@samirar1990]

I would love to see more woman do this hair styles. Better than wigs . Love the end result beautiful

[@quartzzhuit]

I'm convinced you are my influencer. I see the direction my afro is growing.⬇️⬇️⬇️ We have similar texture and I don't like tension on my scalp. Twists work best for for my tight low porosity coarse coils. I also dislike the dryness blow outs give so African threading works well.

[@Anastasia-kj4bk]

One of the best tutorials I’ve watched, the camera angles, detailed instructions, and close ups - excellent! Thank you!

[@Anastasia-kj4bk]

Only wish you included time expectations 😮

[@joanna_nehemie]

My mother had been threading my hair since i was a child it is very common in DRC as well. Oh how i wished i had carried on in teenage years. I started doing it again since last year and i can see already soo much growth and it keeps my hair moisturised.

[@Veronique428]

In other part of African the thread is called fil anango, but I don’t know how they call those rubber thread in RD Kongo, do you have a idea?

[@aida1437]

[@mireille4787]

Hi, how long does your hair remain stretched like that after you've taken out the thread? Thanks for the vid.

[@lolojen794]

I really really like this! I can’t believe I forgot about this process. I did this a very long time ago with yarn on starter locs. Will definitely get back to this on my own hair for stretching and growing out process. Thanks for mentioning the different amount of time you can leave it in for and also for mentioning the product you use for moisturizing prior to threading! Excellent!

[@Beautarie]

It stays for about a week. until my next wash I wash it on weekends. As for moisture Im not there yet, I dont have a lot of products so I use a water based hair food gel and oil moisturizer.

[@priaoansah]

most african grocers have them ie afrocan on jane off wilson, and in brampton theres another grocer on jane by lawrence new era off albion and islington if they sell hair products they have the thread

[@charlenemorris8270]

I also buy it at the African store by Jane and Finch called Mosaic African Foods Wholesalers off Eddystone...they also sell raw shea butter for a good price. Straight from Ghana, it comes from the barrel.

Great thanks for sharing. I’ve been searching this thread on the internet

[@cassiep4490]

i use black yarn when I thread my hair it helps seal in the oils

[@KatNaturalBeauty]

I use hair grease and chebe when I thread 🧵 my hair.

[@Lucky-uz6jk]

I was wondering if I could use hair grease

[@DumebiN]

My mom used to use that specific thread all my life... I didn’t know it was a Nigerian thread

[@Veronique428]

In other part of African it’s called anango thread ( fil anango in french) maybe it has different name in Nigeria.

Goodness the thread... my mom would do that al the time on my hair and my hair would be long and soft but she tied it so tight it made my hair look like a stiff spider...now I appreciate what she did but It’s not worth the head or hand ache from tying so much lol

[@Raetalkss]

[@LivingLifeVividly]

What are the percentages and fabric types of the African thread. For instance: 50% Cotton 50%Polyester. 100% Nylon etc...

[@wb4882]

string I think

[@dawnrosewood7060]

I used regular sewing string. got the same results

[@NaturalDarkChocolate]

Loved this video...thanks for sharing! Have you ever left the thread in for two weeks? I want to try threading throughout the winter and wear my head wraps over it.

[@hiefia8568]

If it's left too long it can get locked up underneath

[@NaturalDarkChocolate]

@@hiefia8568 Many thanks!

[@keshapetty5324]

OMG! I love it!

[@chidinma5313]

Nice video Pls would love to know if the rubber thread or yarn wool will also serve same purpose.....like a substitute. Lovely hair dear....1st comment 😄

[@chidinma5313]

Be Natural am in india and you cant find it here thats why i asked her the question

[@chidinma5313]

Be Natural it has nothing to do with different hair.....i only wanted to know if both can be substituted Hope you understand.

[@PixelPaperDesigns]

Diva Trendz yes sis it can be substituted. I've used yarn n the past n my hair did not break nor stick 2 the yarn. Uv course I spritz it daily wit aloe vera juice. U can also use the banding method. I prefer the banding method weneva I do stretch. Not all material r found n local stores. It's not always accessible. But u can substitute. Jus listen 2 ur hair
