My Hair Growth Routine | Big Chop to Three Months | Type 4 Natural Hair

[@MsCatrin]

Just a quick update outlining my hair growth routine for the first three months since I shaved my head. I’ve been keeping my routine and products super basic since day one and I’m loving my progress. Enjoy!!

[@jazmynxxxx]

I shaved my hair off 3 months ago and I've been self conscious about going out in public cause of it but I've recently started going out without it and I love it!

[@mathapelokwakwa4250]

Lol I can't go out like this

[@jazmynxxxx]

@@mathapelokwakwa4250 ME NEITHER..The first few months I wore a beanie but tommorow will be 7 months since I shaved my head and honestly I love the short look more than my long one (as u can tell in my pfp😂)

[@tracywright605]

I plan to shave mine for my birthday and fear that I will experience being scared

[@jazmynxxxx]

@@tracywright605 sometimes I was scared but I was turning 14 shortly after that, but I say go for it!! Your hair will be more healthier, and it’s honestly refreshing! If you’re scared about going in public u can always wear beanies, or a wig🤍, I hope it works out for u I promise you’ll look good

Shaved my head a month ago. It’s growing in so thick & beautiful (wish I did it sooner lol). I’m so excited… my edges are a bit ruined from not know ling how to care for my hair in my younger years. So I haven’t worn my short cut out in public yet. I’m currently doing research to receive a hair transplant. I’m only 25, it’s my biggest insecurity 🥴.

[@jessbreathenails3747]

I’m shaving my hair today. I can’t wait to start over. Thank you so much❤️

[@MsCatrin]

You are so welcome! It's such a great feeling!!

[@shelbymoore8609]

Shaved my bead yesterday and i can't stop touching it 😂 man kinda regret it but my hair was fried so i had no choice all i can do is look at myself in disbelief right now but hopefully when it grows back it will be better

[@MsCatrin]

It definitely feels weird when you shave your head but it feels so good. I had moments of regret myself but I enjoyed the time not doing my hair 🤣 The growth will feel so much better when it comes in. Don't forget to moisturize! I started when the fuzz started to come in just to get into the habit. Enjoy your journey ❤️

[@nishia6413]

Girl I did the samething due to damage hair. I cant keep my hands off my bald scalp. I love it

[@jupiterdrip9453]

If you use vinyl gloves that have some slip when applying product, it helps your scalp completely absorb the product and you're not wasting it on your fingers. Esepcially use them when massaging. You'll get the most moisture you can get this way.

[@MsCatrin]

I will definitely try this. Thank you!!

[@nuckie_miamii]

Gud 💯 idea

Today is 29th of December 2024 and i am about to shave off my head for the new year. The hair is brittle and broken and im crying.

I shaved my hair November 2.. I just keep my bonnet on. I don't have the best edges from traction alopecia from braids when I was a kid. I'm just ready for growth

[@Open-heart_chronicle]

Same I don’t have the best edges so I shaved off Started a new chapter of growth still the edges ain’t growing so I have decided to take care of my hair and make sure it’s healthy dutifully till the year is out Hopefully I will see results

I’m shaving my hair tomorrow. I can’t wait it to grow back again. It’s seems like a long time

[@MsCatrin]

It does seem like an eternity but the time goes by so fast!

[@shutit4024]

I have also shaved my hair back in May of this year right now I’m on the 5th month and it has grown thicker and healthier, I wash my hair once a week using head and shoulders shampoo, I go in with a deep conditioner from Sally’s or dollar tress Shea moisture conditioner, sometimes like once a month i do a rice water treatment and hot oil treatment. All I put in my hair is oil ( soffee oil or coconut oil) and water lol I just brush it back it’s long enough now I can slick it back

I just did the big chop a month ago and want to grow out my hair also I did the big chop because my hair was damaged

[@ladyofwisdom2]

I recently had a lot of damage as well. My real hair was matted, broken off under my wigs. I cut it ear length end of 2018. Now it's mid back so don't be discouraged, queen. Your hair will grow back soon. 😍

[@starperkins2283]

@@ladyofwisdom2 I want it to get long enough so I can start my loc Journey

[@ladyofwisdom2]

@@starperkins2283 You will definitely get there. Patience is very important and keeping your hair moisturized. I struggled with being patient when I first chopped end of 2018. I didn't show my real hair until April 2019 when I reached shoulders. I started wearing single plaits but under my wigs.

[@Simplynonnie]

You’re so beautiful. I also want to shave my hair but I’m afraid how I’ll look but this video has given me real motivation

I actually thought my hair is growing slow but it’s same length as yours ☺️☺️☺️just gave me hope

[@nuckie_miamii]

I dnt have alopecia but I cut my hair bald because I damage it from bleach then getting a perm so I'm looking on quick WEAVES to do on my head so it can grow back underneath the weave....

[@mercygoodwin5265]

Question, do you need to wash your scalp when it’s bald or do you wait until hair starts growing in?

[@adrianwillis66]

Your skin looks amazing. And my hair is very short like yours and now I can not wait for it to grow again. What do you think about Aloe Vera oil.

[@meinternally]

Beautiful results and great video!

[@MsCatrin]

Thank you so much!

[@kuroe-chan5190]

Sigh…I experience hair loss Like clock work every couple years. From 2017-2020 hair thrived but come 2021…I slowly started losing the crown which seems to be normal and I have ccta on crown and mid hair but it still grew until then…by October my hair was stiff brittle regardless of oils, deep condition and my crown was virtually gone :( something hasn’t been right for the last year. Then got major surgery and been bald since October. Got two months in and shaved again. I barely have .25 inch still like a fade. I’m discouraged and don’t think I will ever grow hair back

[@MsCatrin]

I'm sorry that you're experiencing this. Are you currently taking any medication? Stress is a major factor as well :(

[@dreamingsince99]

This makes me miss my bald head I gotta stay strong 😂😂 just gave myself a trim today but this makes me wanna shave it all

[@JordanFears-ut4vx]

After the first month do you still rinse your hair in the morning to apply the Jamaican black castor oil ?

[@mamejoe2043]

That what am about to do I did chop my hair however my hair got bad cos of stress so I will hop it bald and start again

Hello great video🌹I’m also growing my hair back how often do you use the Shea butter mix/oils in your hair?

[@Miaog-with4kids]

Use your products every day, condition rapidly

I haven't used the shea butter mix in a while but I do use oils about three to four times a week.

I keep telling myself to just Stop watching all these hair videos! I’m still watching. Especially when I come across progression and process of journeys - from bald to having hair again; especially those who have hair texture similar to my 4c hair. This was a great video ❤ your hair. Thanks. (2yrs late!)
