Natural Hair Mistakes That Stop Your Hair From Growing

[@NaturalReign]

Comment natural hair mistakes you made!

[@NanaNaima1]

Thanks for the tips girl💗 A mistake i make is breaking my hair while detangling

[@Dee___..]

Combing my hair dry

[@morghanprice.]

Cutting my hair myself🙄🤦🏾‍♀️

[@ayokadavis8205]

Wearing tight braids and not cutting my split ends yesterday I had to cut so much I felt sad

[@LiyahStar242]

Not moisturizing my hair properly

[@lanagooding]

A lot of people believe heat damage is their curl pattern lol

[@ninanano]

This is so sad 😭

[@ShamommyHempire]

Alot of ppl believe heat damage is others curl pattern too.... seen it on a one of youtube couple's channel (her separate channel).... they kept saying "I love your curl pattern" and her hair was heat damaged like crazy

[@Ngozi838]

I thought that yeah so sad...

[@charliegocrazy]

My sister for example! On GAWD! My hair is natural and hers is dyed, fried and neglected! The only thing we have in common is using castor oil! I want to post videos but I want my hair to be long like hers so I can prove my method works!

[@trudy_triad]

😂😂😂😂 This comment made my life

[@GayleAshleyPatrick]

My biggest hair mistake was flat ironing my hair everyday. And i mean every single day in high school. I would touch up my ends every morning cause the straight look was definitely in. My mom warned me but of course i didn’t listen cause i didnt want puffy hair. My hair went from the middle of my back to my shoulders to my chin in months. Then i decided to go natural cause i was bald headed😂😩😩😩

[@aaliyahbowling9458]

😭 me too! Good thing we know better now

[@theodysseywithin4602]

Me too. I was always straightening n relaxing then I colored it,broke off n I went natural.

[@Stephaniealicianaturalhair]

Oh my hon :) I went natural in February 2008 after transitioning for months. My biggest mistake was wearing a wig daily for months without proper care underneath the wig. I recently talked about this in a video.

[@whichjaytoday]

How's your hair now sis?

[@Stephaniealicianaturalhair]

The condition of my hair is better now. I started to consume more protein and using various oils as explained in some videos.

[@TerraS24]

My first year natural was trial and error with so many errors - following someone else’s hair routine and expecting the same results, not moisturizing my hair when needed, following type 3 gurus when I’m type 4 and couldn’t understand why my hair looked different when I did the same thing. CRAZY stuff but thankfully I figured it out. Education and learning what your hair needs is the key to happy natural hair.

[@amberfrazier5586]

What's even worse is when you followed gurus who had different porosity than yours. Different hair type + different hair porosity = yikes

[@whichjaytoday]

Yes,so true.

[@kensmb8668]

Three times? In a month?? I'm surprised you had any hair left. But when you know better you do better. Your hair is beautiful!

[@evettewalker5596]

I was guilty of the pony holders with the metal, but no more. I sleep with satin pillowcases, because I have problems with bonnets, and scarves staying on my head.

My friend gave me a tip to have a guy cut your hair. Cause sometimes hair envy is real. And I’ve been able to retain length through my cuts

[@ahhhitgavebirth8125]

People who destroy others' hair out of jealousy end up bald headed on god😓🙏

[@torithomas3228]

My hair texture is completely different than what I thought when I was first natural. I literally thought I had no curl patter, but I’m 3c. I guess it was dry Because it was always frizzy. Complete different with correct moisture levels.

[@gaylan61802]

Tori Thomas Same here. 10 years ago I went natural and my hair was dry as a desert. I relaxed it after a year. Last year, I decided to go natural again. My hair is hydrated and curly (3b-4a).

[@Xanthe79]

@@gaylan61802 can u please tell me what you use to keep it moisturized? I just recently went natural and my hair is a dry, frizzy mess😞

[@al3826]

@@Xanthe79 It will take time for your hair to adjust. After 6 months to a year you will notice a change in moisture and curl pattern texture etc. 😊 Product use is trial and error. Products that worked when I first went natural don't work for me now. Don't turn into a product junkie like I did. One really bomb affordable product you can try is ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion with Castor Oil. It's affordable but works really well. My hair is all mixed up but mostly type 4. Goodluck.

[@barose1]

1. Not using shampoo (the early 2000 curly girl madness. 2. Not using protein. 3. Not using enough products when conditioning, detangling and wash and gos. 4. Blonde highlights (1990s) 5. Not using a swimmers shampoo after swimming.

[@Stephaniealicianaturalhair]

Yes, not using protein or consuming enough protein is my biggest mistake. I talked about this in a video.

[@karierenee]

I used to ONLY cowash my hair. I thought since it was a “cleansing cowash” then that was good enough but of course I was wrong. Shampoo is a must and I see the difference in my hair growth for sure

[@DAEEEEEETAYYYYY]

Girlllll meeee toooo Omgg even with cheap vo5 shampoo the wash made the difference

[@ShanteK.]

I used to pick my single strand knots off 😬🤦🏾‍♀️

[@evettes.6820]

Same I still do but I'm trying to stop. I just hate that they're there and haven't figured out how to reduce the chance of getting them.

[@ninanano]

Same and I went from picking them to straight cutting them with scissors... worked for a while and I had basically NO split ends and knots but I don’t think it does anymore 😭 in fact it makes it worse. Trying to stop it

[@ShanteK.]

Evette they suck! I just make sure to keep hair shears near me now

[@ShanteK.]

nadine aww dang you would think that cutting helps! I know I had to change my regimen to help reduce the knots and shedding at least

[@mariankushigbor9605]

Not moisturizing properly

[@katalai3225]

1: Retwisting my hair every night. Not only was that setting me up for product build-up(esp since these products were hella thick), but I was also manipulating it too much. 2: Using thick products. Even though my hair is coily, I found that light creams and gels work wonders for my hair. Took me so long to realize since I assumed that having type 4 hair meant that I NEEDED thick products. It forced me to see that what works for someone else may not work for me and I needed to take into account how thick my own hair was.

[@rachelm.3173]

I feel you with this comment 🙌 I'm type 4 and I had to learn most products that work for a ton of kinky coily's on KZbin like the eco styler and wetline extreme gels are a hell no for me. Natural custards and jelly's are the only way I can get a successful wash and go.

[@ahhhitgavebirth8125]

I've just started getting into light products and I love it so much🙏🙏my hair's been doing much better since then too

[@alaysiab]

I stopped going to a hair stylist months ago and my hair is thriving. Plus its helped me learn my own hair and how to take care of it

[@ladyboss38]

I'm on this same journey now with my hair. I stopped going to my hair stylist, but it's for the better. I already see a little improvement. Thanks for sharing. It gives me hope.

[@aprildenice4635]

You always provide the best information... 📝 my mistake is not moisturizing like I should...

[@barbaratucker2833]

I wash my hair every two weeks i would not oil my hair or my scalp. I didn't trim my ends, condition or deep condition. I've been natural for 10 years, my hair should be longer. Now I've been taking care of my hair in the last 2 years. I wash every week I don't condition but I deep condition with hot oil treatment weekly. I oil my ends daily and scalp daily. I'm high porosity with medium density and I think I'm about 4a/4b.

[@SincerelyLeshawn]

I haven't been to a hairstylist in over 8 years after my last set back. Im my own hairstylist and my hair has flourished!

[@Feliciatanktop]

Sincerely Leshawn I’ve never been to a hair salon in my life. I’m a broke college kid so I have a friend who does my braids if I want them, I do everything else myself and haven’t used heat on my hair since 2013

[@ImpressDivinity]

I found the main thing for me is moisturization and washing my hair. Honestly my hair just grows. As time goes by i have length and people ask but i have no special routine or like avoiding products or any of that. I do avoid excessive heat and deep condition often. I do use the two step protein treatment maybe once a month or even two or three months. Thats it.

[@gigimoody1717]

Every time I go to the salon I have a set back.

[@TBella1226]

When I first went natural a mistake I made was pulling my hair and BRAIN back with tight headbands. I wanted a puff so bad loll!! Hair started to thin around the edges smh.. Another major mistake I make is dying my hair. I would promise myself that I wouldn't do it anymore but I'm hardheaded loll! Using box dyes eats my hair up, no matter how well I take care of it. Trying my best to not buy one and just get something like the hair paint wax instead lol.. great video! ❤❤

[@OneSmartFro]

One mistake I made was treating my longer hair like I did when it was shorter. Which stunned my growth.

[@NaturalReign]

I definitely understand that girl! It’s a whole different process when your hair starts to grow out!

[@leahhhbabiiee]

1: I just greased my scalp & didn't know anything about moisturizing my actual hair 2: I didn't cleanse my hair properly 3: I didn't deep condition at all mostly because I didn't know what that was during that time

[@kozumexee]

Same😣

[@daisyflower1545]

My biggest mistake and I'm completely ashamed was washing my hair whenever my style came out which was after 3 months🤢. I have been saved now so I shampoo every single week and also cowash midweek. I want to see a picture of your hair blonde.

[@daisyflower1545]

@@anndeecosita3586 well it did not lol. I now have scalp eczema/seborrheic-dermatitis. It is mostly hereditary as in my case but if you do proper scalp care you might never get it. But cause I wasnt caring for my scalp I got it and sadly, it can't be cured, it can only be managed. Getting it was what made me serious about scalp care. Lesson learned lol.

[@LoveeNy1]

Aja Olokun woww Ive had scalp psoriasis since I was a child. I realized my hair needed to be washed either every week or every 2 weeks.

[@Feliciatanktop]

Daisy Flower this happened to me too! When I was 9 my mom left braids in my head for 6 months... I lost half of my hair and got seb derm, which I still have. I grew my hair back, now it’s bra strap length. But seb derm really sucks, I have it under control though

[@bluecolorluv]

Realized washing my hair with only sulfate-free shampoo caused my scalp to itch terribly. The itching stopped as soon as I started using shampoo with sulfates. Now I shampoo with a clarifying sulfate shampoo followed by a sulfate-free moisturizing shampoo. My scalp never felt better!

[@jaz1elise]

My mistake is going to a traditional hair stylist that doesn't have natural hair clients. My other mistakes were not moisturizing enough and not applying products properly. Great video, Jaelen!

[@MiVidaBellisima]

Natural hair mistake #1: believing my stylist when they say "they're only going to DuSt My EnDs." I cut it myself- at least i know i wont cut too much!

[@NaturalReign]

Accurate because they get scissor happy and I end up with a big chop 🤦🏽‍♀️

I’m twelve and cut my hair in January due to having my hair flat-ironed. I begged my mom to get one because I was the only black girl in my class. I would over iron my hair and I thought that my curly- straight hair was a curl pattern. After cutting my hair its now in the awkward length stage, and before it was shoulder length.

What’s the best way to do a protein treatment if we don’t have a hooded dryer? Could I use the aphogee and let it sit for an hour? I see the directions say also not to use a plastic cap

[@oliviaburrell-jackson9280]

When I use the aphogee two step I just use a regular hair dryer and move the dryer around until it dries. If you use the 2 step treatment do not let it sit for an hour. For protein treatments follow the directions so you don't get protein overload.

[@kailewis1900]

You have to let the aphogee get super hard and only a dryer can get you there. It will not be as effective if you let it air dry. I’m speaking from experience

[@Cymone761]

Im a dye-head. I used to dye my hair and then be lazy in my early 20’s.Now that I’m older I’m not so lazy and I don’t experiment with other people’s routines outside of techniques. It’s hard to keep up with washing and deep conditioning/protein treatments each week but my hair is flourishing now. Another mistake I did was not know my porosity I assumed I was low and would deep condition for hours and then wonder why it was breaking. I typically stick to the directions now and at best I may add a additional 10 mins but if I do more my hair is very mushy.

So I wanna start over and see whether I actually had curly hair and if so, begin to manage it. Can you let me know your opinion on this decision I wanna make?

I have high porosity, fine strand, medium dens. Do you think cowash is suitable for my porous hair and itchy scalp? There isn't much blogs or information about it. Even medical stuff that I can research on it.

I get scissor happy I feel like that's the reason why my hair it's not where I feel like it should be. I got a trim my second year of being natural that was so bad that I literally damn near start it over somebody else did it for me. And I lied to lady who trim my hair this time around and she said I had done a really good job and I honestly in about 7 months but I told her having three. That showed me after her doing a thorough cut that I don't have to trim my hair as much.

I get so confused when I keep hearing that it is bad for you to get your hair straightened often... it’s all about making sure your hair is protected. I get my hair straightened every 3 weeks and it’s growing healthy WITHOUT any heat damage. My hair reverts back with no problem. As long as you’re properly taking care your the hair by moisturizing & deep conditioning, regardless if it’s curly or straight, it will grow healthy. I have 4c texture hair btw.

Although I'm an insulin dependent type one diabetic who's also taking calcium pills daily & vitamin d pills ( once a week) I seriously wonder if these two things will have any negative impact on my hair growth journey?

Finding a moisturizing routine!!!!!! It’s so hard to genuinely moisturize my (naturally) dry hair. Like some products I have been trying make it more “sticky” than moisturized if that makes sense! Being with stylists (including my mom) who doesn’t know my type of hair and just does the routines they do on everybody. Wearing too much wigs and doing nothing to my hair underneath (very cringy right?)

I feel so green, tell me about the pantyhose ponytail holder please. I've read all the comments and I have literally made every mistake listed. I'm on the healthy hair track now though thanks in great part to you and a few other influencers.
