Natural Hair| How to Stretch a TWA Using African Hair Threading

[@chantelphassions8399]

Def. From gh.....funny how we stop doing certain things when we older but then after we learn about benefits of them we go back.shea butter,coconut oil,cocoa oil ,and all great stuff from the mother land.

[@yolandahill4743]

I'm so glad black Americans can learn about their African roots hair mathods.

[@letyjay9715]

yaaas, back motherland.. i always wondered why my hair grew so much as a kid, yeah well turns out ive now worked it out. african hair threading was the popular hairstyle for school kids, low manipulation and kept hair moisturised too.. because i swear i think i used to wash my hair every day and go swimming too. no hair loss. our hair likes to be left alone..

[@DiscoveringNatural]

That is so sweet of your grandma to do your hair, Looks great!! Omoge!

[@naturallyphilo]

Thank you! :)

[@Aanidal]

I never knew how to do this before this was helpful .

[@bettychacha8943]

philo i really love your hair.. i just big chopped a month ago n its almost the same texture as yours. you inspire me..

[@naturallyphilo]

Hello Betty, I'm glad you're going on this journey. It's a fun one and I'm happy to help! :)

[@anaturalgal]

I love your hair its just like my hair type. I really dont know what hair type i am. when its shrunken its very coiley and curly natually. but extremely soft all the time like cotton. its sticks together like suede I can bantu knot my hair with not bobbypins just twist and tuck it just sticks no matter how short or long my hair is. crazy. I love me hair but it does crazy things on its own that I dont understand

[@Cindy99765]

You definitely seem to have type 4 hair based on your description, and I think this lady has 4b or 4c hair

[@B_muslim]

Do a naturally curly quiz

[@adrienne3575]

[@goldeng4889]

Am I the only one who dropped the phone at 0:58 just to applaud with her?😂😂😂

[@beebaswallah4213]

Yea this do work....i love u naturally philo😍😍😍

[@lovet8740]

But how does she exactly do the knot at the end of the threading ? I don't get it and I don't want to cause breakage to my ends

Beautiful... I've been wearing my fro since 2008. Most people reckonize me around town because of my fro

[@jenniferdouglas4933]

beautiful fluffy hair

[@BabyBlueTay1995]

What do you use or do to your hair to make it grow? We big chopped around the same time, but my hair is not even close to being that length. Smh.

[@naturallyphilo]

Hey girl, I'm seven months post big chop but I transitioned for 4 months before big chopping so maybe that's why? Did you transition? Also, everything I do to my hair is on my channel, everything from the products I use to my daily styling. Let me know if you want to see me make a certain video. :)

[@purpleguddess]

Omgggg sooo many memoriessssss😭😭😭😭

[@MsWhit2013]

You're so pretty ! Did it hurt to sleep with the thread in your hair or were you able to sleep like normal?

[@naturallyphilo]

Thank you! Same to you! It didn't hurt at all. I just put a satin scarf on at night to stop it from sticking up. I slept like normal.

[@MsWhit2013]

NaturallyPhilo okay

[@Munyaca13]

I just BC a month ago. How soon can i start stretching my hair is i used this method? (my hair is about 1-1/2in)

[@naturallyphilo]

+Munyaca Johnson You can stretch your hair with this method. Might be hard to grab and will take longer, but you'll get a good stretch.

[@lovederaye6386]

Wow just wow 🤩

[@jakyrarodgers5614]

so cute with short hair

[@SheReaDelSol]

She made it look so easy :(

[@naturallyphilo]

Yes, and you have so much more hair so I can see why it would be harder. Plus you did it on your own. lol

[@naturallyphilo]

Check out Pure Estrogen's video on the method: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q36oZ4iJo6eDe5Y

[@SheReaDelSol]

True to both. And I've watched her video multiple times lol

[@juanitathornhill4139]

great video

[@117blueone]

Could your hair go in a bun with this stretched style because at the end of the video you said you were gonna try!

[@naturallyphilo]

Hey Grace, yeah it did. In my Marley Hair Ponytail video I showed that it did. That video was filmed on the same day as this one. :)

[@117blueone]

NaturallyPhilo BTW, my name is Tiara! LOL! But I prefer grace anyway

[@naturallyphilo]

Lol alright

[@detuchileudenze7940]

nice! how long does the stretched hair last?

[@prillad.3063]

lasts for quite long until you bring it into contact with water to shrink it again.

[@ebo7310]

I wish your grandma can do my hair.

[@VeraDonna]

Loving it.

[@Amandachisom_space]

I did it but it hurts my head. I had bond like pimples all my back that I see with. What can I do

[@ashefongugu5697]

cant wait for my fro to be big

[@DetronizedHD]

How is it now?

[@msscorpio5516]

Beautiful

[@lilmissbeautifol2000]

Can I use yarn?

[@naturallyphilo]

Not sure if yarn can hold up that well. Never used it for stretching.

[@lilmissbeautifol2000]

Oh ok thankyou!

[@prillad.3063]

you could use weaving thread... I've seen people use yarn, but I don't know if the results are as detailed as of a thread.

[@kagisohawthorne2268]

I use yarn all the time, im African and thats how we used to do our hair. in fact i just did my daughter's hair wit yarn, the same exact style nut connected.

[@saraadabarbie3601]

how long does the stretched hair last plzz comment back

[@naturallyphilo]

Last as long as you let it. Sweat n water will shrink it up.

[@brandoncaison247]

+NaturallyPhilo I'm doing it rite now with my hair how long do you usually keep it in ma

[@naturallyphilo]

Me, personally, 3 days max.

[@MaatlaSithole]

what thread did you use?

[@naturallyphilo]

+Maatla Sithole Thread from the African market. I showed it in the video: www.google.com/search?q=african+threading&espv=2&biw=1280&bih=617&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiy1sO83NPLAhUKcD4KHWHkA4QQ_AUIBigB#tbm=isch&q=african+thread&imgrc=sarwXq44vINSTM%3A

[@ajwaboateng8916]

just beautiful.xx

[@shennicedaniel269]

do you have to use this tread or.....

[@naturallyphilo]

+Shennice Daniel Any thread will do, but some thread out there ain't strong so it breaks in the process.

[@solotaken]

Coule you use any thread to do this?

[@prillad.3063]

yes, as far as it's strong enough to not break. Weaving thread is a good alternative

[@solotaken]

Could u use any thread to do this?

[@naturallyphilo]

I think the African thread is best.

[@lolallday08]

Meh, I've used oil coated acrylic yarn (there isn't any African thread in Memphis,TN) to no ill effect.

[@chumamqeta6023]

U have gorgeous eyes omg

[@youngatwista]

[@EliThaGoat]

Can I use dental floss

[@oliviaandrea9130]

......why tho

[@teresafan1]

Just use any thread

[@prillad.3063]

+Hey Olivia 😂😂😂 your response + your profile Pic = 🙌🙌🙌 😂😂

[@judydeshazor8967]

Can't you just blow dry it?

[@naturallyphilo]

Too much blowdrying is not good for hair. It will slowly change your curl pattern because of the heat being used. No heat stretching is much better, but once in a while, blowdrying is fine.

[@judydeshazor8967]

Thanks for the reply.

[@PureEstrogen]

Yes. Thread is the answer. lol

[@naturallyphilo]

Haha yes! Have you used this method before?

[@PureEstrogen]

NaturallyPhilo Yeah, it's the only stretch method I've ever used.
