LENGTH CHECK After 3 Months | Natural Hair growth Update‼️‼️😱

#NaturalHair #LengthCheck
Details on the NHG Challenge:
The Natural Hair Grow Challenge that I, Natural Academia, started doing in the summer of 2020. This challenge allowed me to take some time to let my hair just be. In my opinion, Natural Hair grows a lot faster when it is left alone. In addition to that, this challenge has also forced me to love my hair in its natural state, I no longer feel the need to make everything look “perfect” or worry about how I’m going to do my hair when I do my NHG challenges.
Time frame: 7/9/2022-10/9/2022
Moisturize: When needed, I will be moisturizing every 2 weeks

She can't post more often. She doesn't play with her hair that much..for like weeks at a time. And she has school to worry about.

You look gorgeous 💗 I love watching you take care of your hair and seeing the fruits of your labor. Ty for the update

[@هديلهوساوي-ز3ه]

Your channel changed my perception of natural hair growth ✨️ 😌

[@ericasinclair3998]

Same

[@CoilyCode]

Yes please record your first “salon” experience! Your hair is lovely! Great job on staying consistent. Please don’t be a stranger! I love your videos and how chill you are 😍 Side note: the TGIN + Palmer’s grease is an AMAZING combo on my low porosity hair!

[@confusedstar-cosmic5517]

I've been waiting for this video! I've literally been making sure my notifications were on lol!

[@unimakon]

Take your time with posting when you can. We'll be here tos support you!!

The back of my hair grows the longest n has the looser texture while the middle of my hair is the tightest texture and is the shortest.

[@feliciadunn644]

That length is my hair goals. What do you eat in a day to stay healthy.

[@francenegayle3866]

Gurrrlllll....I am soooo in agreement with you regarding this cutting your hair evenly all around. My hair is uneven....I have multiple textures and multiple lengths throughout my hair. I am just beyond BSL after 4years with a goal of MBL. So yes 14-16 inches left versus right side ....but my nape is 7 inches. It does it's thing ....it's so slow. So prone to breakage. To get to MBL I need to retain 5 more inches....so I am trying the three month challenge repeatedly for the next year. Wishing us all length retention

[@lisaj4441]

The back of my hair grows the fastest. I wish it was the front.

[@nellex147]

Same it’s a sad life

[@Thatgurl]

It's the middle part for me🥲

[@Baddgallindsay]

I wish the back of my hair grew the fastest. My front grows the fastest.

[@melaninweirdo1476]

sameeee my back hair grows fast! but my front is so slow omg

[@jaylathinks1549]

Of course I want to watch your journey to the salon. I'll admit it, I'm nosey plus I enjoy watching your hair videos.

[@lillypieisme]

I don’t know why I want to thank you for talking about split ends. Hairstylists really be scaring you to keep cutting your hair for your hair to grow. I did that and my hair wouldn’t grow pass my bra and split ends just kept forming no matter what I did, how many times I trimmed, no matter how many deep conditioning and low manipulation I did, split ends are inevitable when it comes to curly hair. I stopped trimming my ends so much and started doing it only twice a year and my hair grew rapidly.

[@MzZophia]

I have similar hair growth. The front grows faster as well and has less texture than the rest of my hair

[@1GoldenBreeze]

Nice length retention.💜 Yes, it is normal for hair to grow at different rates in different parts of the head, and also have slightly different textures in different areas as well. I didn't participate in the challenge, but I usually check length retention once a year at the end of December.

[@ashleydelmundo9629]

The crown of my head grows the slowest and it is always dry. It sucks because it’s right in the middle of my head. The back of my hair grows fastest and it looks like I have a mullet. Does anyone else experience this? I also would want to see your salon visit.

[@sweetiekie6799]

Yes, I experience this. The crown and sides barely grow

[@claudiagrover-cofield2776]

The back of my hair grows much faster. My back is easier to detangle. My front easily gets single strand knots

[@Malawianink94]

That’s the same with me

[@confusedstar-cosmic5517]

I would love to see the salon experience!!

[@amb7412]

Great seeing the hair growth!

[@meinternally]

I was waiting for this! I love the progress, nice job 😊

[@justanniee3788]

I thought it was just me I notice that since my hair has gotten longer I notice that my curls have stretched but the front part of my head the curls are a little loose so its easier for me to detangle vs the rest of my head..if that makes sense ☺️

[@Serraphina]

yes, its because they're more heavy

[@Daizetta]

I go to a salon called She’s A Natural in Brandon. They do natural hair and crochet. I highly recommend them if you’re thinking about going to a salon for natural hair.

[@Blessing_0888]

So excited to see this next video, can't wait to see. You're so beautiful sis ❣️

[@wellineonsongo3741]

I'm always looking forward to watching your videos.

[@youknowyoulikeit1000]

I want to see the salon experience. I’m thinking about going but I don’t let nobody touch my hair🤣 I’m kinda scared.

[@francenegayle3866]

I went a month ago....not going back. Too rough with the blow drying.

[@eleventoasts]

Your hair is so beautiful.

[@vanessamorgan6086]

Yes it’s the back of my hair that I don’t like it’s like it’s always dry looking

[@claudiagrover-cofield2776]

I love that moisturizer too. That's my go to for me and the kids. Kuzu oil and moisturizer is good too.

[@ebonyblacknaturalz497]

Ur hair is beautiful......luv it

[@Isabella-nz2ih]

yay i missed you! i would be interested in the hair salon vlog if you're up to film it!!

[@pearlmahooe1509]

The back of my hair is the longest..it grows rapidly

[@ciaraleaphart3664]

The back of my hair grows the fastest and has a totally different texture. I understand

[@justanna9747]

Your hair is thicker and full at the roots, looks like you need a big trim soon

[@ericasinclair3998]

Love your hair

[@ebonyblacknaturalz497]

My hair also grows faster at the front and it's also less kinky

[@maramara7494]

Where are the challenges ? Can’t find them

[@naturalbeauty1320]

You know you don't care about the length of your hair when you take down the top braid and not the one under it. Lol! The other youtubers be making sure they do the one lowest anyone else notice that??? Not Natural Academia she be doing it BIG!! Why everybody else here is playing she growing inches for real.

[@LemonDropYum]

I want to see that thing you want to do to your hair that you're afraid of mentioning. Don't be afraid to do what you like to your hair. I understand people can be culty in the hair community but we shouldn't care what others say like that. We have freedom and should strive for innovation. =)

[@lowenantwood2394]

what type of vitamins do you take!

[@talltalllady]

You didn't show us what it looked like before

[@truthersprotectingtruth490]

If it is not broke don't fix it. The salon people have their clientele. I think you will be hassled to do things to your hair that will sabatoge all your hard work. I don't recall the platform but a woman with longer hair than yours had a salon visit & they basically straightened her hair. Remember they need a head to promote their services. If you go, do your research, find one that specializes in natural hair with the credentials and natural hair testimonials. I like to see you in beads, maybe you should try some brown or beige tones.

[@norelle8705ify]

Are you familiar with Hair Fertilizer? I think you would like it for your next challenge.
