Same, I think she should start asking people if they would let their faces be shown. I don't think it would change the power behind these messages very much at all. And I want to see their happiness!

[@kaydee4222]

I understand the sentiment, but I so disagree. These women have allowed themselves to be vulnerable and exposed in reaching out for help. These women have obviously been through a lot, I guessing they are probably overwhelmed when they first see their hair. That is a too sacred a moment to be put on the internet and their identities revealed. This woman's family had no idea what was happening to her, her privacy needs to be respected. Please, don't change how careful you are to protect your clients.

I also think she should continue concealing their faces. I wouldn’t want potential clients to feel pressured to show their faces if clients who show their faces on these videos were to get more positive comments. And also what KW said.

[@courtneyjaddock2189]

While I was waiting for spine surgery, I was in so much pain, physically and emotionally that showering / washing & combing my hair was basically the last thing on my mind. I can easily see how someone could let this snowball until it’s out of control. It’s so wonderful that you’re able to help these women out so they can get a little bit of confidence and control back to their lives.

[@analuisa1214]

When I had breast reduction, I couldn't wash my hair by myself for about 25 days, so I had to spend money going to a salon every week (my hair does not like to be washed more than once a week) so it wouldn't be hard when I could lift my arms. It wasn't ideal because I had to straighten it every time so my mom could brush it easier, but as I had the chance to do it like this it helped us so much. We were spending so much with surgery and meds that it wasn't that much and we had planned it beforehand. It's something to consider in these difficult parts of life.

the same thing happened to me in middle school and I was continuously bullied for it, it’s what I was known for basically and made me very anti social. there was no hiding it. started as a couple small knots that I just ignored bc I thought I couldn’t get them out then next thing you know I ended up with my hair matted to my scalp in a big ball for all of my middle school years. I was always too ashamed to let anyone touch it or help me. and when someone finally did they cut it off and showed it to me and shamed me for how bad it was even tho I was a kid who was never taught how to maintain my hair. you are so kind and caring and patient I needed someone like you back then!

I was the same way as a child. I wasn't allowed to have long hair like my sister because I "couldn't take care of it". But no one ever showed me how to take care of myself properly and relentlessly bullied for it. I even let it get tangled at my nape and when i went to the salon they just cut them out. Now, as an adult I have butt length hair that I am so proud of, and get compliments daily! It's crazy how much people can change over time.

[@debj5114]

Me as well, I was 13 when my aunt over permed my hair and back in those days (60s), no one cut their hair in a style so I had little pieces of hair everywhere and we know how our southern black knew how to pick on you. I’d forgotten about that until you put your experience down. It’s something that you bury but it stays with you.

[@karen113088]

Im blown away by what you are doing. I’ve done hair for 15 years and I have seen very matted hair probably a dozen times. I never came across anyone who had been matted for more than a few months, but they were still tough cases. i agree it can happen to any race. I noticed part of the reason people get stuck in this situation for so long is because if they try to find someone to help them they get turned away and gawked at. So they are overwhelmed and reaching out for help, only to be publicly humiliated. Talk about adding insult to injury. That’s why whenever I came across someone like this, I’d pull a late night trying to get it out. I like your idea of splitting it up into daily sessions and I think that’s more realistic because I had one that took like 12 hours. I didn’t even think about splitting it up into sessions. I was afraid it would get worse again before I could remove it all if I didn’t do the whole thing at one time. Sorry this is so long, I am just so inspired by you, you are doing amazing work.

​@@ellejohnson2817 Salon suites can be amazing for some stylists, but it makes you a business owner, with all the stresses that entails: Paying all the bills, picking up all the supplies, doing all of your own scheduling, inventory, advertising, paying taxes as a business, etc. It requires a good bit of money up front, because you need a selection of products, which is expensive. And it can be difficult to grow your clientele in a suite. If a stylist doesn't have a local clientele, and they work in an established salon, their salon's reputation can attract new clients to their chair. Of course, it's the stylist's skills & personality that will keep the clients coming back, but the salon gets them in the door. But in a suite, the stylist will need something else to draw new clients: Maybe a large existing clientele and a great referral program, or a great social media presence. Don't get me wrong, a suite can be amazing for the right stylist, and many make way more money there than in a traditional salon. But it's a lot of work, it requires skills that aren't related to hair, and even an amazing stylist and business owner might fail if they don't have a local clientele. That said, I totally understand what the original poster means about salons being overstimulating! I have only mild sensory issues, and sometimes I get so agitated working in a tight salon: It is so loud, and hot, and humid, and hair gets stuck to your skin. I can't imagine what they've been going through. I hope they find the perfect place for them to work, because they obviously love the craft.

I love that you celebrate dance and that you have a good time, and that you take care of yourself as well. ❤

This beautiful woman!!! You took fifty years off the back of her head that she needed gone so she could be herself again. Her hair is stunning at the end! But you are stunning too, not just outside, but inside. You give a few hours or days of your life, but they receive a lifetime of self worth and confidence back. You are so precious!

I really resonate with these videos! a really close family member of mine wouldn't comb their hair for long periods every year bc they had a cyclical depression. after their depression, I'd go in and help them comb everything out and then style. you just never know what people are going through!

Love 518! You are a true angel. God Blessed you.

I'm absolutely loving these videos and how much love you give these wonderful people and how much patience you show them. I love the way you show them nothing but love and how you state that obviously they've been going through something. The world definitely needs more people like you in this world. Xx

You are amazing! Wish I could have gone to you when my hair was matted and at it’s worst. You’re so loving and understanding and the fear of judgement stops a lot of us from getting help. Thank you!

[@candacechapman4689]

Watching your videos and listening to you words just fills my heart with warmth. The way you help people without judging them is amazing. You aren't only dematting hair but heeling people emotionally.

I’m glad I came across you. You are a blessing to watch.

You're such a blessing🥰! I wish you were in the Philly/So. Jersey area so I can send my mom to you. Her hair hasn't been washed or combed in yrs & she won't let me do it.

[@sparkybish]

Thank you for your understanding and compassion towards your clients. Your attitude will do just as much to help them as your hair skills.

[@Grace-pm1vm]

I remember having a big chunk chopped off the back of my head several months after my mom passed. Watching these videos is very cathartic. Thank you for what you’re doing 💜

😲 WOW what a transformation, she looks 25 years younger with her hair cared, coloured!! Well done!

[@bubblegumboobs]

You are such a nice person with a beautiful heart 💗 I personally went through this and you're correct, it's not like one day you wake up and say I'm not gonna do my hair. My hair is past my waist and it just got to much for me and yes it became a mess. I'm better now. But it could have been worse. Thank goodness I was able to get it out after three months of neglect. I can't imagine 6years. It is depressing. God bless you and all that you do. 💕

[@Brookiiecookiie1994]

I really appreciate these videos, during COVID I got laid off and went through a big depression. I didn’t have a job to go to, so I didn’t brush my hair. It was an endless cycle of me trying to get my life together. My hair is VERY fine and thick, it tangles very easily to begin with. Watching your videos feels therapeutic. THANK YOU!

[@aspencorner2654]

Amazing! Her hair is beautiful.

[@angellouisesings]

I don't know why your videos showed up in my feed but glad they did. Somehow it's soothing to watch. Bless you and the work you do.

[@promiseb294]

Ugh this blessed me sooo so much, I’m so glad it turned out this way❤️
