So nice the see naturals having fun and experimenting with the beautiful hair they’ve grown.

[@temiadesina]

thank you so much

[@tunzlunz]

I know right! As far as I’m concerned the natural hair community succeeded. Black women are now wearing their own hair straight instead of perming it. We succeeded.

[@malmal3003]

@@tunzlunzagreed, we are not solely relying on wigs, weaves and relaxers which are definitely fine and fun. But we should also feel beautiful in our own hair.

[@SelinaZinchuk]

Wow 11 years, that is massive, I made it 5 years and then did my first silk press. Doing another 3 years before my next silk press. Your hair turned out so beautiful.

[@valeriesignaturesalon]

the STYLIST IS ON POINT. TEMI YOUR HAIR LOOKS BEAUTIFUL

[@temiadesina]

thank you so much

[@valeriesignaturesalon]

@@temiadesina you are welcome

[@DaNewBlack]

I've been feeling like this for the past few months... I need to enjoy my hair whilst it is on my head. Not when it's thinning, breaking etc. Enjoy it NOW! Your hair looks amazing, the shine!

[@WilliamsPinch]

Precisely! I’m happy the natural hair girlies are out of the season of extra strict regimens and into the season of having fun with those strands.

[@temiadesina]

i agree, i stopped being so strict, you only live once and hair will grow back lol. im a new person haha

[@temiadesina]

www.youtube.com/@WilliamsPinch love this for us

[@tunzlunz]

Go ahead natural girls! You are allowed! You’ve been teaching us how to style/love/wear our natural hair for years. I think you deserve to reap the fruits of your labor. I’ve seen a lot of natural girls in the community say they want to have fun now and I think that’s good let’s show these natural hair haters that we can have fun with our hair too. I’m so sick of the natural hair community slander!

[@Exoticbarbie.]

The stylist did an excellent job with that trim

[@kharyzma4u]

Girl. It came out nice! Congrats to you for retaining so much length. Great stylist too, because before you cut it, you can take pics to document the length and then cut later. It looks so nice!!!

[@essielayn]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how HAPPY you seemed! 🎉🎉🎉Enjoy your Crown and Glory!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@AJ-qm1ex]

I love your hair both ways, it looks so healthy and I’m glad she encouraged you to gradually trim! You look absolutely beautiful & that confidence is the icing on the cake!!❤❤❤🙌🏽

[@MonCheriLynn]

You have been my hair crush since 2014!!!! I'm so proud of you and OMGOODNESS YOUR HAIR IS GORGEOUS BOTH IN ITS NATURAL CURLS AND STRAIGHT!!!!! 👑👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@OrganicSlay]

What a surprise! Your hair is silk pressed made your face light up sometimes we need a pick me up, you look so in love with yourself as you deserve

[@temiadesina]

yes i am,thank you so much, i definitely want to do this a bit more

[@korqui.p]

I feel like this is a sign lol. I've also been natural for 11 years and have been taking it just as serious. I haven't had my hair straightened once in the 11 years but I've really been considering it. Your hair turned out beautiful! I'm glad you're allowing yourself to enjoy it. You def inspired me!😍

[@temiadesina]

im so glad i inspired you. sis at this point i was like its hair, i shouldnt have a mindset like it can never grow again if something bad happens. I wanna be freeeeeeeeeee

[@solarlola5953]

I think taking her hair seriously was what helped her retain so much length but still.. it’s good to have fun with your hair . You only live once

[@Jtoniais1]

You and your daughter are beautiful. Your hair turned out GREAT!

[@Cynthia__F]

Hi Genesis 🙋🏾‍♀️. I saw the straight hair on TikTok it looks so pretty with curls. As long as you use a good heat protectant getting a silk press should not be an issue.

[@temiadesina]

thank yoy so much

[@tarriasmith7933]

GIRL! I LOVE IT!!! I am so happy u did this. U look so good.

[@temiadesina]

Thank you so much!!

[@Misskwu]

You’re so beautiful! Love your hair curly and straight

[@kevseb66]

Been doing hair forever. I remember the first electric flat iron I ever 3:56 purchased in the early 90"s. It was a combination crimping/ flat iron with changeable plates. It was alright but it was bulky and heavy. Nothing like they are now..Flat irons have come a long way since then.

[@weshouldtlk]

Your hair is absolutely absolutely stunning!!! Your hair looks so Beautiful because you’ve taken it so seriously. Yes, have fun with styles, but I’d love to see how you maintain the length of your hair while getting silk presses. Hopefully, you’ll post more about that too ❤❤❤ so beautiful

[@sharj76ify]

I need this stylist in my life ❤ and ur face did not look fat at all … beautiful

Look that blow-dry look would have been it for me. Your shrinkage is crazy. This is almost 6 to 7 inches of hair we normally do not see.

Super CUTE!

[@drammy04]

I think she should have cut more since you don’t ever flat iron it. My hair is dense, but fine strands. I never see all my damage until I straighten, which is usually once a year. I actually am going to try to do it 3-4 times a year for length retention, because I’ve been doing regular trims on just blown out hair, and I haven’t been catching most of my splits. I understand now why straight naturals retain so much length.

[@Tgallager2742]

I love it…it’s so pretty but I’m so freaking scared of heat damage I continue to wear my wigs hiding my long thick a hair smh

[@Sweet_Ness_69]

Beautiful hair. Kudos to the stylist. A different one would've cut at minimum 6 inches... unnecessarily.

[@5pctLowBattery]

Nah I’ll stick to the wig for straight look. I paid over $200+ here in Boston. Went to London for Xmas the next day, and that London weather puffed my press out. Wasted $200+ 😞 I had a throw on wig as a backup thankfully 😅

[@temiadesina]

omgggggg with that experience i wouldnt try it again either. so sorry that was your experience

[@lisayoung1489]

Beautiful hair. You definitely needed to cut more off. Your major split ends is in the middle. Focus on healthy hair first. A few more inches and you are good to go.
