Natural Hair Journey Part 2: Regimens, Products and Hairstyles to Tailbone Length

[@laer.393]

your hair journey is honestly so inspiring, and i feel like it really goes to show how versatile our hair types can be! it can look shorter you can stretch it to look longer, it can look wavy or coily or just whatever! i too have noticed wash & go’s don’t work for me and leave me with more fairy knots than anything

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Lae Thank-you for your comment! I agree, our hair is so versatile! Wash-and-gos have the same effect on my hair. Stretching is key for me!

[@susanx6782]

you and your hair are extremely beautiful!! Your smile is so pretty

[@ifshesopleases]

Aww thank-you so much!

[@syd5831]

Working on get my hair like this and your channel is inspiring me a lot.

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Sydonie Thanks for your comment, it's so lovely! Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see

[@lexilomax4986]

Excellent video! Very helpful the way you broke everything down and explained how you adapted to changes in your circumstances and learned little by little how to successfully care for your hair. This is the best natural hair journey video I've watched in my 8 years of being natural👌🏾❤️

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Lexi! This comment made my day! Thank-you!

[@ChesireWaltz]

Oh wow your hair looks like mine! Like twice the length and 3 times the thickness but yeah, this was helpful, thank you!

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi love Thank-you for your comment! So glad to hear that we are hair twins!

[@LovelyNYC7]

Your hair is absolutely beautiful as are you! My hair got very long when I locked it but not when I have it out. I love my own hair long but as I age it is thinning, mostly around the edges. Seeing your gorgeous hair I am inspired for my own. Glad I found you here on KZbin . Blessings!

[@FitBabe]

I’ve recently discovered a deep conditioner that I’m I love with. It’s the Adwoa Beauty blue tansy mask. Omg it’s AMAZING! I highly recommend using it with at least 15 minutes of heat. Made my hair sooo moisturized, shiny and defined! If it’s available in the UK you should definitely give it a try.

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Love

[@maggikorexa7]

Is it also good for a low porosity type hair??

[@kaheaisaac1]

Gorgeous hair! U can sit under a dryer to do a wash n go. Amazon has soft attachable ones.

[@ifshesopleases]

Thanks for the tip!

[@truthserum1271]

Beautiful hair. Being gentle is key

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Nia Thanks for your comment!

[@1GoldenBreeze]

Great video. You really went through a lot to figure out what worked best for your hair. Good job sticking with it.💜

[@ifshesopleases]

Thank-you for your comment! I definitely did! I just wanted to share this as I think it's really easy to get discouraged along this journey. I believe that there are always solutions to the problems we face

[@fruitsarelife148]

What do you eat to have no hair loss or enough protein and iron in your body to grow your hair?😊 My hair grows depending on wether I have enough nutrition in my diet or not. Love your videos 💗💕💕

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Selam Thanks for your comment! Honestly my diet has been all over the place over the last few years!

[@TheDivaIsIntheDetails]

My hair stays wet for at least 10 hours when I do wash n go's as well. I think it is because we have low porosity hair. So I stick to twists that I leave in for 48-72 hours and then wear a twistout for the rest of the week and then prepoo prior to washing on day 7 or 8 and deep condition and start all over again with leave ins in the order of liquid, cream, oil. Great video. New subbie here!

[@ifshesopleases]

Thank-you for your comment! Welcome! Yes! It much be a LP thing!

[@blackbutterfly8338]

I do mini twists, as well. I keep my twists in for two weeks and moisturize as needed. Then start all over again with a prepoo….

[@tamara-today]

You are so inspiring ❤

[@ifshesopleases]

Oh wow, thank-you so much

[@naturalzana]

This is a great routine. Iv used natural ingredients and other homemade products i upload on my channel to grow my hair after I did the big chop, and now i’m amazed at how fast my hair has been growing. Following a regimen and being consistent is key. thanks for sharing this. your hair is beautiful

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Zana Thanks for your comment! Consistency is definitely key

How often did you redo your mini twists or braids for best hair growth?

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Ama Thanks for your comment! I used to redo my mini twists every 2-3 weeks!

[@zhalyssacotton4244]

Can you do a twist tutorial? They look so gorgeous and I would protective styles with just my natural hair

[@ifshesopleases]

Hi Zhalyssa Thanks for your comment! I can definitely do a twist tutorial in the future :)

I wish kinky textures didn't have to protective style to grow. 😔

[@Aniexo_]

You don’t necessarily have to, your hair is going to grow regardless . Maybe won’t retain as much length .

[@AimForSuccess.S]

You are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for the videos. What part of Nigeria are you from? ❤️❤️❤️

[@serenityjohnson7528]

Do you recommend loc then blow drying and then braiding?

[@danielalutina4918]

She uses the LB method meaning leave-in & butter

[@ifshesopleases]

I don't blow-dry so am unable to recommend, I'm afraid x

[@serenityjohnson7528]

@@ifshesopleases do u think using hair butter on the ends of the hair or grease is better or it depends? Also do you do anything to your scalp? like oils, massage etc. or did u find it grew better without all of that. Finally, how many years did it take you after you cut your hair to collar bone length to get to tailbone?

[@chimenenzegang1710]

Please have you take suplement for hair,which one

Hi Kendal Thanks for your comment! I actually did take biotin and msm at some points in my journey but not for very long!

Will do, thanks Lola
