Absolutely beautiful

[@Bestisyettocomeyes]

1. stop following hair gurus, learn your own hair 2. don’t use wrong products 3. stop jumping on bandwagons 4. trim your hair 5. no heat 6. protective hairstyling for some days 7. low manipulation 8. don’t deep condition over night (don’t go to sleep with wet hair) 9. don’t detangle your hair dry and have it slip when doing so 10. be grateful about your hair ❤

[@FruitIsLove2]

The misleading thing is that someone with beautiful hair like indigenous strandz will post a video entitled, "If you want long hair do this." And people like myself try it because we trust they know what they are talking about. I am learning the hard way to figure my hair out and it is very frustrating. I'm on my 4th big chop. Anyway, I really enjoy your video. Thank you for getting me to rethink what I'm doing to my hair.

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hey Sun Flower! Thank you! For the black natural hair community , really black women and hair , I know it is a very sensitive subject and I try to use my word wisely and give advice that I know of and that has worked for me. When I started my natural hair journey I would latch on to someone and follow everything they did verbatim and what I had to realize is that it should be used as a baseline and not exact. I had to learn my hair and learn that what works for her might not work for me. Being natural is truly a journey and I hope you find what works for you! Thank you so much for watching.

[@FruitIsLove2]

@@KlassicallyKept I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement. At the rate I'm going, I will be 60 and bald by the time I finally figure my hair out but I won't give up. Thank you again for your videos and for sharing your hair journey with all of us. You have very beautiful, healthy hair. 🥰

Good information. Mya, when you mentioned "LongHairDon'tCare" this brought back memories. Although I like to see the regimen of other naturals, I know I have to listen to my hair. I too struggle with hand in hair syndrome and going to bed with wet hair due to evening washes. Working on both of these. You mentioned Tangle Teezer. Some love it and others indicate it shreds strands. What are your favorite tools for detangling? Sorry for the lengthy dialogue. :)

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hey MJ! Not at all , I love to spark conversations in the comments. First tool my fingers. I take a mixture of aloe Vera juice, castor oil and some type of essential oil , usually peppermint , lavender , or rosemary , wet my strands and start from there. I use a wide tooth comb only after I have used my fingers. Lastly I use a tangle teaser. I use the tangle tease from tip to root to detangle even more and for definition.

[@mjgarner123]

@@KlassicallyKept Thank you! I have to start with fingers too. Love the dress! That color is beautiful!

[@KlassicallyKept]

@@mjgarner123 thank you! Yes finger detangling is a must. I was a little weary at first because if the color , but it photographs beautifully.

[@amayahyisrael7819]

I am guilty of hand in hair syndrome. It’s bad, I definitely need to work on that. Question: how do you re-moisturize your hair without redoing your twists? Btw, you are so beautiful. Love your hairstyle

[@girlyessencee5273]

Thank you for the tips. I've tried so many trends, jumping on many bandwagons but most of them don't work for me. Once I've learnt to listen to my hair, I've started to see better results

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hey Girly Essencee! You’re welcome and exactly ! If you listen and learn your hair your process and joinery will be much easier. Once I saw the whale sperm video I has to take a step back and realize that it’s going to take time and that I couldn’t just try everything and except it to work. Thank you so much for watching !

[@KnL9713]

Be proud ! Thank you ! 🙏🏾 You remind me Cipriana Quann. I used to do wash and gos. I was in love with the definition. But all these tangles was too much. Finger detangling limited the damage. I cut my hair 1 year ago and I decided to go back to twists.

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hello KnL! I have tried wash and gos different ways and we are just not friends lol. Plus, I prefer my hair to be up and out of the way! I swear by my mini twists !

I always look forward to watching your videos. Very detailed information. I always finger detangle prior to using detangling tools. I recently started using curlforms again to let my hair air dry during the night when I sleep after applying my rosewater, oil, and leave-in conditioner. This way I'm not going to bed with wet hair. I solely finger detangle each section before installing the curlformers. My hair will pretty much be dry before I go to bed, but I like to keep them in until the next day.

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hey Naturally U Neik! Thank you I am glad I can share my experiences and knowledge with y’all. OMG curlformers lol that’s taking me back. I tried those very early on in my naturally hair journey, I did not detangle my hair and when I took them out I looked crazy lol. I bet it’s beautiful when you do it. I love that you use rosewater for your hair , I use it on my face. Thank you so much for watching.

Great tips sis!! Tip #10 is something I work on every day . I love my kinky natural hair, I really do, but I just wish it didn't have such high shrinkage. My hair is armpit length stretched out, but my shrinkage does not let my hair hang pass my shoulders. Thanks for reminding me that I should be thankful and grateful for the hair on my head, shrinkage and all! BTW, can you please drop where you got your earrings! They are SO beautiful! 😍 Plus your whole look is amazing!

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hello Onetallgirl! Being natural is journey your hair is going to test you lol, but it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Instead of envying someone else’s hair I take care and embrace mine. Shrinkage is REAL lol. Earrings are Tory Burch, I got them from ShopBop , the last I saw they were sold out Dress - rstyle.me/cz-n/fnem3hcrzxf. If interested. Thank you so much for watching !

Hello BeaunaturelleFeb11! Yes! We always have to be thankful, when I first started my natural hair journey I didn’t understand that and it wasn’t until I learned to be thankful and love my hair that my hair began to flourish

[@lison973]

Any trichologist or cosmetologist will tell you hair is weakest when wet, and strongest when dry. As for detangling, I find that it depends on the state of the hair. For example I wash and blow dry weekly. I detangle with a light oil on dry hair before I wash because my hair is in beta state. Beta state meaning the hair is relatively straight, due to blow drying. Now if my hair is in alpha state I’m definitely using water to elongate my curls before attempting to detangling. Alpha state is when your hair is in its curly state. I wouldn’t dare touch dry curls with my tangle teaser. Those strong dry curls will curl up on each other and you’ll pull and break your hair right off. Using this method to detangle has done wonders for my hair. There are rules to the game. For context my hair is about 3-4” past bsl. I have 4b hair. Love you BP !!!

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hello Alison, thank you for the explanation about alpha and beta. I don't comb my dry curls either, that's a no no. The only time I really detangle is when I have washed my hair and I put my hair in large twists to dry so I can then install my mini twists. I cant wash and blow dry weekly, I would never leave the bathroom lol, but 2 weeks works for me perfectly. Thank you so much for watching.

[@lison973]

@@KlassicallyKept love your channel. Obsessed with your twists and how you keep them. Using the rev air has helped me cut out about an hour or so from my wash. I’ve got it down to about 2.5-3 hours. I detangle my hair completely before washing. I wash in twist and work in 4 sections. I then split those sections into 12 sections while adding my leavein. Then I simply drop my twist in the rev air. No tension and minimal hair loss during tht blow dry because the revair has no tension. I love that thing. I don’t do twist I simply bun my hair using a slip satin hair scrunchie. I’m going to try twists again.

I really love your advice but it may be best to not criticize or describe henna as you have. It does not permanently change curl patterns, and it has so many wonderful benefits.

[@f.u.noseyassstalker7147]

Because of my textures as well (3) on my sides especially is straighter or wavy the back as well the top is more curly, either way I used to think it was damaged and end up cutting ✂️. Now that I know the difference I maintain growth, the other thing is the less curly hair look longer when dry.

[@KlassicallyKept]

Hello F.U. Nosey A** Stalker. I can definitely relate. The middle of my head is my struggle section. My hair in the back is looser and my hair in the front is the loosest which also which also grows the fastest. Maintenance and a good hair regime will always help facilitate hair growth and retention. Thank you so much for watching

[@hereforit2347]

You definitely need to personalize and fine tune your methods and regimen. I, personally, am more extreme than most KZbin influencers. By that I mean I finger detangle exclusively use conditioning cleansers more than I do shampoo, and oil my ends at least three times a week. But my rate of length retention reflects this.

[@f.u.noseyassstalker7147]

I do not understand why adults use nicknames or slang when talking about human anatomy. I think mature and elegant women do not use slang and nicknames for their vaginas or any other human anatomy. Elegance is so much more and goes deeper than the outer appearance.

Use of blow dryer and bonnet dryer? I bonnet dry my hair on low heat. Stopped blow drying three years ago.

[@KlassicallyKept]

Excessive heat. I know one of the reasons women like to wear their hair natural is for the versatility. I myself straighten my hair once a year, and once it gets frizzy that’s it lol, I don’t re- straighten it, you get what you get lol . I know there are “ heat trained,” naturals out there. I don’t know about it so I do not speak on it, but in general excessive heat.
