[@thatgirlpeyy05]

[@suavelassiter7077]

Ad0re_ pey hair update

[@lemonpop1001]

I hope your hair is super long

[@MissTiffanyGalore]

I cried with you and prayed that it would get better for you. I’m not the only one. I am proud of your progress!!

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Sis, people like you is why I have been strong to move on. Thanks for the love.

[@AutumnBRreeze]

Good tips,I noticed with 4c type ladies we are always cutting and trimming, trimming and cutting our hair, I used to be guilty of that too, my hair never looked like it would grow, now I DO NOT cut my hair, not unless absolutely necessary, finally Im starting to see a difference in length retention .

[@jacquehanna8964]

Haven't seen anything from you in a while. Missed your input to the natural hair community.

[@wannabe41]

Your hair is really growing back nicely! I have been doing rice water rinses and my hair loves it.

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Awesome 👍

[@patriciayoung1579]

Do you do your rice water rinses before u shampoo or after?

[@wannabe41]

Patricia Young After. I apply my deep conditioner and then apply the rice water on top of the conditioner. It’s a tip I got from Nappyfu.

[@erikaneal1472]

I'm glad you didn't cut your hair and decided just to nurse it back to health. I had a setback like a week ago that I"m really pissed about and plan on doing the same thing and mine was unexpected too I have no idea what I even did!!!

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Oh no, sorry to hear that. You should try to figure out exactly what caused it, so that you can prevent it from happening again.❤

[@gigglyfitzgirl]

Can't believe it's been 6 months already

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

I know right, time flies.

[@MsMiaAlexis]

Great job in nursing your hair back to health in such a short time. I felt your pain back in January when you shared the set back.

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

😘😘

[@mariahthomas1584]

Where have you been??? No more videos in a year? I hope everything is okay

[@philive4200]

I'm so glad I found your channel 😭 It's wonderful for me to see someone with hair like mine loving it and figuring out how to give it the love and care it needs. I'm also really glad your hair is coming back in well. Going back to binge watching your videos now 😅

[@olyviajazzmyne7633]

Black hair is so crazy lol . U can go from waist length to shoulder length in a matter of hours 😂😂😂. DETANGLING IS EVERYTHING

[@dkizzobabe]

Annastacia Green Don't laugh at some ones mishaps. That's not funny.

[@olyviajazzmyne7633]

Colorful Bird comprehension is everything damn ...If what u got from my comment was something negative or that im laughing at her mishap then man ....there is really no point to me even replying right now ..

[@infinitelyblessed4812]

of course your laughing at her mishap by being scarcastic what goes around comes around

[@PameraFromEngrand]

Colorful Bird I don't think she meant it like that. She probably has had that same experience, like I have . Within a few hours I went from thick waist length to armpit length because of heat damage. To me she's laughing at the irony of our beautiful hair type (looks so resilient but damages so easily) and not because of what happened to our sister's hair.

[@olyviajazzmyne7633]

Ashley Adams lol ummm okay then . The only person im laughing at is u right now 😂😂😂😂😂and im most definately NOT being sarcastic in THIS comment 😂😂😂

[@Sunshine-ye4xz]

It's definitely flourishing. Great job!!!!!

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Thank you 😍😍

[@caramelsubmerged7426]

Lovely to see how your hair is flourishing! I am really happy for and proud of you! You certainly persevered past your test to testify now!

[@carriewalker3728]

Yessss!! Let’s grow our hair together! So proud of you and inspired by your progress!!

[@lorrainelashley3723]

Hi Missing your presence on youtube.. When wiill you be back?

[@enitsdickerson398]

I am keeping up with your progress it’s looking good. I catch you on KZbin and IG.

[@FromAto4z]

I love this demonstration that you don't have to automatically chop everything off just because you had a setback. Especially for those who don't straighten often, it's unnecessary! Can't wait to see future updates!

[@jasmineadjei2552]

Your hair is lovely! I am on this growing my hair so it grows down rather than out. I NEED to learn how to cainrow. I've had my hair in afro for so many years I honestly do not know any different anymore, however I still need to learn the various up keep and ways to grow it. I've been hearing about this rice water business. I'm sitting here now with my small fro and rice water (I love the smell of it by the way, it doesn't bother me. To me its an earthy smell). I'm grateful for these platforms that are showing black women how to maintain their hair. I remember the days when it was not cool to have your hair natural and females use to turn their nose up at me or look at me in digust. Nice to see a movement of women embracing their natural hair also. Keep up the good work.

[@doThatGWalk]

Great comeback 😊 this will help a lot of people so they know what to look out for in the future. I had a gel matt up my hair once too so I rarely use gels except maybe Flaxseed which I have yet to try.

[@arnettacalloway602]

I am so happy for you!! Great job!!

[@jacquehanna8964]

Missing you!!! Has your hair recovered! What are you up to these days? 🤗

[@kenyalank]

Im doing the same thing right now; I cant even pinpoint why I my ends seemed kinda randomly thinned out (still thick, just not like it used to be) and some spots just have plain old breakage. It is likely due to a weave that I got in February (second time in my life ever, and my first lace front ever.. no it wasn’t glued down it was sewn in). Your strategy is also actually recommended in an old school natural hair guru’s (were talking 90s early 2000s here!) book called “Grow it”. She says that the salons will tell you to cut it, trim it and all that jazz, especially when your hair is long! but she says you SHOULD NOT cut it or trim it and instead go into protective styling/deep care mode to allow the short hairs to “catch up” to the longer ones to fill in the hair. It makes sense that cutting it wont necessarily fix anything; all the hairs on your head is not growing at the same rate because all of your hair follicles are not in the same hair cycle at the same time. I think its a great strategy to length retention and I’m doing it right now! I’ve done it for about 6-7 weeks and can already see the difference. Protective style for a week or two, finger detangle, light rinse/deep condition or protein treatment, and protective style (no ends out) again.

[@kenyalank]

Update: I just took my hair “down” to detangle for the first time in ~8 weeks and IM SO GLAD I USED THIS STRATEGY. It’s thickened back up, those short pieces in the crown grew in and are long enough to blend, AND it’s longer and thicker! Don’t cut it ladies, just go into protective mode!

[@Zizzyyzz]

Great bounce back, girlfriend! 💜👏

[@AngellaMarieTV]

Thanks for sharing! I had a set back from postpartum shedding. Was so close to cutting my hair. But i decided to nurse my hair back as you did. Enjoyed the video.

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

That's wonderful, I am happy to hear that your hair recovered.

[@an-gdee9940]

Ur hair is coming along nicely😍

[@adriennewhiting4860]

It looks a lot healthier! THX for sharing!

[@mstamalaj]

It looks amazing! You are doing a great job.

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Yep slowly recovering, thank you!😘

[@ossier2796]

I don't blame you for not starting from scratch. If you're not wearing your hair straight it's not visible.

[@debstayblessed9549]

Good job. Very encouraging. I use rice water and appreciate the other tips you shared

[@aminad9337]

Lool i guess me too im transitioning my ends to become thick ! I really liked that so we dont have to cut it all of ! A video on your regimen in this setback recovering journey ??

[@williamsj4852]

Your hair is looking so beautiful and healthy. Pictures don't lie at all. ☺

[@CreateYourBestVersion]

looking much healthier!!

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Yes definitely

[@cattate1492]

It's looking much fuller now. You're doing great! 👍

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

😘

[@MyzMelanated]

Same happened to me two years ago, a friend did it. Sis it was very bad. I didn't have the energy to take care of my hair and grow it again. I just started intentional hair growth this year. Miss you though cause I started watching you when I initially started. it's been a while since you uploaded. Hope you are ohk. Stay blessed.

[@sameerasalah2006]

Girl you’re beautiful hair is coming back to we’re it was before ❤️❤️😊🤗am soo happy for you 🤗🤗❤️❤️☺️

[@meluncul91]

I sure would love to see your hair progress and where its at now

[@KingChameleonsEye]

[@michelle_ajema]

Sooooo happy for you!! 😍❤❤❤

[@lamarseillaisesandy5527]

I'm so happy for you. You've made so much progress. Congrats sweetie.

[@khameela-N]

Girl we miss you 😢

[@DS-Trina]

Your hair is looking great. I think you’re the first person that I have watched that recommends to not cut the hair right away. I like this. I think some people are too quick to cut, and then they fail to learn what to do to keep their hair healthy so they end up the same place. I’m going to try this. I have to look up how you do your braid outs...it doesn’t look like you use gel.. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

[@dajewel1982]

Excellent work!!

[@ninahamington-roberts1408]

Amazing hair!! You look good

[@zinnelessel9230]

Love de progress dear...

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Thanks 😘

[@WeShareTheSameAffliction]

How is your hair styled in this video? Is it a wash and go? It's gorgeous!

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Hi, it's an old braid out.

[@Khabirah90]

Good evening. I genuinely miss your content. I have learned to take better care of my hair by watching your videos. I hope all is well with you. I miss you!!! Take care!!!

[@ArnesioGian2012]

I’m so happy 😀 I was devastated for you when that happened but you didn’t let that stop you I can see how much you take care of your hair

[@emiliwealth6373]

Im so happy for you sister...i was with you when you had the setback your hair has definitely flourished. I have a request. Can you do a wash day routine cause now you have incorporated the rice water rinse. It would help a great deal. I have waist length 4c hair and I am postpartum. Ive lost some hair dont want to chop it off yet. I will like to grow it out like you said. Thank you in advance.

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Hello, aw thank you for going on this journey with me. I totally feel you on the postpartum situation. Don't cut, focus on strengthing treatments to get your hair back on track. I have this video where I showed how I incorporate the rice water rinse in my regimen. Let me know if it was helpful or if you were asking for a different type of video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJSXaaqGfdGVnMU

[@aidamartinez5410]

You are almost back to where you were! good luck

[@drfrancenegayle879]

Hey girl..... hope all is well with you. Long time since I saw you. Take care. See you soon

[@pgirl9959]

That's exactly how my hair broke off from heat 😔

[@FTYC2022]

Same.

[@theblackspotmovement]

Loved the 3 tips,l need to focus more on detangling.Loving the progress and l will start documenting my progress

[@kame1453]

I speak healthy hair over your life.. You will recover even longer and strengthened strands❤.

[@bernicejackson6564]

What happened to this lady??? I don't anymore of her videos on hair. Hope she's ok!

[@sharlaalexander8707]

Okay, so you have layered hair now! It looks great! Can’t wait to have those problems haha. Keep up the good good 😀😀

[@Blessed3010]

I am too happy that your hair is growing back. Looks good girl. My front seems to be thinning out not sure what l can use any ideas would help? 😉

[@aprillove10]

Conditioner would have been the thing to do. Soak it in conditioner and then de tangled

[@sassouusasoo3607]

She is gone .The channel is gone .

[@lorrainelashley4026]

Hey Missing your presence and contributions :(

[@surenuffwife]

My problem is I’m quick to cut. If my ends look thin or damaged, too often I chop. I’m 6 yrs natural to & currently an inch below bra length. I’m going to try to Nurse damaged hair in the future. I have chopped so many inches off during breakage.

[@Adegail_]

Your shirt is cute, so is your beauty hair!!

[@curlblessings8827]

How often do you cleanse your hair? Would you say you have low or high porosity hair??

[@patwhite1437]

We can do this. My 💘

[@tynethompson251]

If I buy the rice water shampoo and conditioner can I still make and use my own rice water or would that be over kill? For example: shampoo first, then follow with my own mix of rice water, then follow with the rice water conditioner, followed by a home made leave in? Please advise. I’m on a hair mission and once given the green light I’m on.

[@tracytracy9482]

I got a set back too, but my hair breaks from the roots, I use rice water for rising, any help pliz

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

Hello, do protein treatments once or twice a month to help strengthen your hair strands. That should help in preventing breakage. Also keep up the moisture in your hair.

[@shellyreynolds8948]

ECSTATIC you didn't join in on the KZbin fake shit of chopping your hair off for views. When anyone with sense knows, that's NOT something you need to do. Rather you have a set back, or are just learning how to handle your natural hair. There is no reason to have to chop it off, and start all over to do it.

[@preciousc432]

This setback really helped you out in the end

[@victoriaadekunle8844]

I want long hair too..😭 Sorry about your setback tho..Green Beauty says to say "ete ese" (dunno if I got that right) lol. What is your complete hair type?

[@ratiemz]

Well done ✔

[@ntandoencube9783]

hallo loves...im a year and a half natural now but having serious set backs..when i braid my hair my scalp is very sensitive and becomes itchy..i really want to keep my ends tucked away but the pain is too much..any advice on how to cope with sensitive scalp issues? BTW you hair look amazing as always!

[@ihavenocluewhattochangethi9947]

My layers are like ten times worse and my hair is kinda short lol

[@tiffanydrake1652]

Can you just leave rice water in your hair if you choose too

[@CravingCurlyKinks]

I have actually done that before and it was fine. Just make sure you pay attention to how your hair responds to it. And moisturize your hair to prevent dryness.

[@mymiracle79]

Hi do you have high porosity hair?

[@Prosperity1959]

Hi,what products were you using prior to your set back?

[@edwanaharvey3874]

How often are you trimming your ends?

[@nursecoco3718]

So Gorgeous 💕#TeamBrownSkinGirls💖💎👑

[@username01675]

I still feel so bad for your setback😭

[@tamikapenny3672]

Hi I love my hair and I love me

[@elishebax]

I know you was embarrassed sis, but O how I wished you had took pics. Just so we cant have that happen to us. You type F, right?

[@berniejobee1398]

I don't know why I felt the title was somewhat misleading...but nevertheless, glad your hair is recovering.

[@dkizzobabe]

Bernie Jo Bee If you watched the entire video but still think that then I am surprised. How she has been growing her hair fast is with rice water, gently detailing and low manipulation hair styles. I am guessing you watched some of the video? Nothing misleading about it sis.

[@lacavernedalibabamagasin4120]

Sis do you have a little secret .... you did show much of your body ...hmmm... 😊
