No Fuss Quick Summer Beach Curls! Natural Hair

[@kimr.8870]

All it takes is one naptural85 video and it gives me more motivation to go natural

[@inuyashaMTV]

Kim R. did you do it? c:

[@IreneElla]

5 years later and I’m still coming back to watch this video! Can you do an updated summer one?! ❤️

[@pwilson5625]

I literally come here at least twice annually. Like I already know how to do the style but it’s so satisfying to watch and her hair looks so bomb. I miss OG natural hair content

[@debrabankscuadro311]

This is my go-to method now. My hair has never felt better!! And it's growing!! Using just the oils and no leave-in conditioner shortened my drying time and left my hair softer. I have since added flax seed gel (another recipe of hers) to the oil mix and the results are AMAZING and long lasting! (I just blended it all together with an immersion blender, and popped it into the fridge to make it creamy.) Got great results for almost a week with just making 4 chunky twists at night to keep it all together. Thanks Whit!!! You ROCK!

[@moethomas143]

Did you make your flax gel and which conditioner did you use?

[@debrabankscuadro311]

Yes I made my own gel. The conditioner I like to cowash with is Aussie Miraculously Smooth.

[@moethomas143]

Debra Banks Ok Thx!! It's funny I was thinking about Aussie prods earlier today

[@iamnotokay24]

Only about 10 more years till I get to this point looool I cant wait this is gorgeous

[@sukafoluv19]

This tutorial reminded me how I got way better definition when twisting on soaking wet hair as opposed to damp hair. Thank you for the reminderrrr!

[@teeniebellamd]

She has a awesome spirit, and she has taught me soooooo much about hair

[@UnrulyIndividual]

Its 1am and I'm up watching videos that I've seen several times before...and I must admit I love twist outs. I just like the way my hair comes out and I get tons of compliments. But, I truly wanted to say, thanks to Whitney for making all of these videos. When I first went natural I had no idea what I was doing or what direction to go in. I was a product junkie BIG TIME!!! Always looking for that magical wonder product. But it all came through patience and time. All of these videos helped me so much. I'm glad that I could actually see someone do it and show me the proper way to achieve what I wanted to do. Thanks so much!!

[@kittykatsnitsnat]

Same. I started watching her years ago when I first went natural. These videos really helped me get my bearings with my hair and also inspired creative styles to make the process fun. I'm so grateful that I had these videos to guide me along my natural hair journey and I'm glad you had that experience, too!

[@WastedOrange]

Years later and this is still my fave 😭♥️ I never comment but wanted to Thank you so many years later for this one!

[@lashpetty9832]

OMG! Your hair has been touched by God, it's flawless. I love it!

[@dkolorofpinkluva2007]

I started transitioning last year and it will be a year for me in June...I'm SOOOOOOO glad I found you here on KZbin...you inspire so many women to try different things with their hair...then you keep it fun AND informational!!! Stay gorgeous and thank you for everything so far...I know you'll have more to come!! Signed, One Loyal Subscriber*

[@jeseniaking5270]

I've watched this video at least 100 times lol

[@Uniquaization]

I KNOW! I LOVE this video for some reason lol

[@mrsallister32]

My hair is medium length. I tried this and it worked AWESOMELY. It made my hair look closer to its actual length, which was very exciting. The only thing I would change is flat twisting the eight section down instead of just regular twists. I have 4C hair, (it's really coarse, kinky and curly), so my roots were still really thick. I loved it and I will be doing this for the rest of my life!! Thank you Naptural85!!

[@Xwaterwicca]

I tried this and its soooo cute on me! !! Even tho my hair is short still looks awesome

[@timikalittle6630]

Whitney, I saw this video when you originally posted it last year, but I've been binge-watching it again like a fiend all this week! Our textures are similar so you were a big inspiration for my 2nd big chop last year. I have another 4 years to go to reach your length, but your informative DIY and creative style tutorials have me looking forward to the growth journey. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and ideas with us!

[@soa71095]

Only 30 million more years till my hair get that long and thick

[@Uniquaization]

lol....not that long dear.

[@carameltee5650]

Lol

[@DonJuliah]

I love all of her videos she's so energetic and she explains everything PERFECTLY !

[@lovemycoils]

i love this video because it shows that getting specific results with your hair is all about technique. this simple routine has saved me from being frustrated and spending too much time on my 4a/4b/3c type coils! thank you lol!!

[@babyyfaceddlover]

I'm in love with this video and I can't wait to try it out. It makes me proud to see the NATURAL Black Hair movement. It's a beautiful thing to see a women of color embracing her natural locks.

[@adoRebelstyle]

I use this method all the time now as one of my go to styles. Works like a charm except my hair is not as full. Love it. This is my current wash n go method btw since I get major shrinkage. Thanks Whit!

[@TantraGal]

Nap! You have noo idea How much I appreciate you as a Natural Hair Queen! I've been on my journey for about 3 years now and you are THE ONLY one who has remained true to your style regardless of the competition or opportunities to make extra cash or receive free items! You will ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE! GREAT VID YOU LOOK SOO AWESOME! I'VE GOTTA TRY THIS!

[@JahKnow1Beauty]

Can't wait till my hair is this length and thickness so I can do this! Getting there!

[@makebalindsay6869]

Thank you for making your videos. I have been all natural for the past 6 months from the BC. Your videos have saved my life and has given me the ability to love the new me. Thanks again.

[@JadetheGoober]

I'm still not over how much Whit looks like Zipporah from the Prince of Egypt.

[@justinehorton2527]

I can never unsee that now!XD

[@naturalWOWFACTOR82]

I did the same style this past weekend and that was the best stretched twisted out I ever had. Because my hair is a little longer now, your stretched method works better now than when my hair was shorter. Love all your videos, keep them coming.

[@luckychimey]

It's almost that time again! And I can't wait!!!

[@Taija16]

Omigosh I did this style and I love it!!! I've never liked any of my twists outs this much! I'm so doing this style for like the rest of my life!

[@peachy_reina]

THIS is my go to style! Effortless

[@idadear80]

You are so beautiful and such an inspiration to me dear. I have had my hair natural all my life but I have never thought of giving it any special care until I watched your videos. Most of the people around me have said nasty things about me being natural but you have made me feel good about my natural hair and taught me how to take care of it. Thank you so much dear, may God bless you and your lovely family.

[@dismisswillcorrupt84]

The jealousy is unbearable!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Uniquaization]

LOL

[@suprrkool]

I did this last night, JUST took them out, omg I am LOVING my results! definitely my new go to hairstyle!

[@RNRL20twentyfive]

One of my favorite channels by far! Your tips are awesome

[@msnaturale55]

I tried this and on my 4C hair had the curl definition, length and bounce. This is another addition for a quick style. Thank you Whitney you are the best.

[@candee219]

tried this over the weekend on my short/medium natural hair, it turned out amazing! another easy go-to style, along with my puff :-)

[@Daviswaytv]

Omg this hair style has changed my life. I have multiple sclerosis and sometimes I can't do what i want with my hair. it's just to much. it is so cute and it does not take long. I love love love love love it thank you so much.

[@ramonaspice6290]

this is my favorite curly hair style on youtube cause wash n go's are really not for me this is the best for me cause oils love me and i love em back and don't mention shea butter

[@michele_leona]

Wow. So I just tried this and my clarify, detangle, condition, detangle, twist back up session in the shower was definitely the shortest its been in a while. I Thank God for helpful people like you. Be blessed. (Smile!)

[@theycallmekurn]

Girl, my hair is super thick. 8 sections might not get it for me. I may need to do 10 or 12. I have hair for about 5 people!

[@kiteaschaseedorf4297]

When i saw your comment i laughd so hard your funny😂😂😂

[@angiefaye9863]

LOL same

[@riannacalderon5473]

feel free to share the love; I want thicker hair (':

[@eightyninetreasure]

Oh-my-goodness. Your hair is so magical...to me. Lol now the tune to "You are so beautiful" is replaying in my mind.

[@tequilashots875]

I used to love your hair when you first started out. Now I can't do a single style. My hair isn't nearly this long or thick. Love your hair but way too much for me to deal with. If I could get shoulder length that would be great. Nice hairstyle!!

[@jamaicabrewster8902]

Use the inversion method

[@Paintedmyst75]

Thanks for the suggestion of adding the oil in the shower and rinsing while twisting. Tried it a couple times and got the right amount of oil yesterday. Really like this style. You're the greatest!

[@drewlily1ify]

I don't get how this is different from a regular twist out. What makes your winter twist out take 4 hours??? Just curious because this is how I do all my twist outs.

[@Pixelynx]

Well she usually does flat twists when she does twist outs. More of a battle with the tangles.

[@drewlily1ify]

Ah OK.

[@chickpea05]

Tried this for the first time and it came out perfect! My daughters now want my hairstyle instead of flat ironing! YES! Thank you so much for your great tips!!

[@Tiffanyt899]

I've watched this video many times and have just nofticed that she said Trader Joes Nourish Spa Conditioner but holds up the Trader Joes Tea Tree Tingle... #minordetails Nonetheless, I use this routine when I wash weekly using the Terrassentials Mud wash; Its easy and works like a charm and I have 4b/4c hair.

[@jonnawhite1989]

This is good to know. i have the same hair type with 3c at the nape

[@DorisClay]

It worked on me! I saw her and other natural youtubers' hair and realized I like natural hair better! I've never been a weaver but have been perming since elementary school. I'll be cutting off my relaxed ends in about two weeks, hope I'll look right with my tiny 'fro.

[@ALBERTABERTASENNAH]

I'm growing my own hair so I can swing it around...Lol

[@lizajuziemusic]

Omg i did this and i got the best results ever! when it got old, re-twisting it was a BREEZE! it literally cut the time it takes to twist my hair in half and i got all the definition i wanted.i will be doing this all summer cuz i work out. Thanks so much Nap85!!!!!!

[@alana6605]

136 Are pissed that you can have beautiful beach curls!

[@thecurlymuscateer]

I'm so glad you posted this... I was just thinking "wow what am I gonna do for summer??" and you are so right ... it doesn't take long at all and it's PERFECT if your hair is super dry, and you have a tight curl pattern. L O V E this!

[@MsLotusBlooms]

You're such an interesting woman.

[@Itsmecicib]

i just want you to know you SAVED my hair. i got to the point where now I'm in college and have like NO time and my hair itself is a chore! this hair style is the best thing that ever happened to me andddddd its cute! thanks a bunch and i love your hair. BEAUTIFUL

[@jomyrawilliams8853]

i've been natural for two years and the results i got were........nothing i wish my hair was like hers

[@tifanitcarnes8600]

I think the real secret is to get familiar and comfortable with your own hair type... find what works for YOU... and then own it. ;-) ... I'm still working on mine, but that's what I see when I watch her videos... she's not trying to achieve what other's are doing. She is trying to do what works for her hair and style. Just stick to it... Best of luck!

[@TheGeekNos]

I tried it on dry hair and had good results! even with my short layered hair it look reeaaallly amazing! YOU ARE A HAIR GODESS WHITNEY!

[@madambutrfly23]

I love this video but not everyone has hair like yours I sure don't

[@mlatrellelove]

Thanks so much for posting this video. It has been the answer to my prayers! You've helped me cut my wash and styling time down from 3 hours to about 30 -45 minutes! That's amazing! God is good! God Bless you and your family. And thank you for sharing your hair knowledge and your family with us. Love you Whitney :)

[@5pctLowBattery]

This was a FAIL for my kinky-er type hair. But the YT ppl like it! This one YT lady was saying how jealous she was of curly hair. Haha :/

[@ieshiagrier7306]

I wish i seen this before i relaxed my hair. My hair was long and natural. I am transitioning now. This gives me hope. I will do this as soon as i can

[@crystalsanniez2642]

Tried this today and it looks great. Definitely my go to style of the summer. And I love how so few products are involved.

[@ymb6987]

From a TWA to long flowing fabulous, I love love love this tutorial!!! I am feeling ready for the beach and beyond!!!

[@chevenell]

This is exactly how I wash and style my hair every week, I just wish my hair was as thick and luscious as yours, you are beautiful!

[@soulartistry242]

@Naptural85 I am going to the beach tomorrow! Trying this technique right now! I can say, it DID cut down on detangling time which is AWESOME! I have my hair wrapped in a t-shirt right now letting it soak up the water for an hour. Thanks for the tip!

[@andreasydnor]

If you wasn't for you, i would have given up and gone back to having permed, hair. I always looks to you for inspiration, knowledge and motivation! Thank you for blessing me with your videos!

[@Skyduchess]

Howdy firm Tx. I love your videos and you have been a source of guidance for me over the last 3 years. I gently flat ironed my hair for the first time since starting this journey. I've taken Hiro advice to love each phase ( not always easy ). My hair, to my surprise is now bsl ( big chop 7/1/2010 ). Wow. Long silky, but I've grown fond of my big, free natural mane. ( beetle juice head ) Thank you Whitney. For guiding us all. You are a blessing.

[@vkcsweetie14]

I tried out this style (with a few adjustments) and it came out fantastic. I got so many compliments on the street and they wanted to know how I did it. I had to name drop you and your video! Thanks again!

[@jamilasilvera]

from dreadlocks to free locks/curls i'm a fan and "favorite" most of these bad aboys for my re-education/intro into free hair. Keep up the awesome!!

[@Lareed815]

Watched it......Tried it.......LOVE IT!!!!! I actually did the co-wash and twist/pin on Saturday. I was in the process of taking the twist down (on Sunday) when some friends wanted to go play tennis, so I pinned them back up for the day. I took them down/out this morning (Monday) and I LOVE THE RESULTS. Full and stretched hair. THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!

[@DrQuinn29]

Her hair gives me EVERYTHING!! Love it and can't wait until my hair gets that long!!

[@pgwats]

I tried this last night and think I found my new co-wash routine. Thank you so much. Tonight I'll re-twist w/ my usual products. Can't beat 20-30 mins in shower including styling for my length

[@iBreatheFreedom22]

I get so excited whenever you put up videos. You have been instrumental in my decision to up my hair care routine and rid myself of continuous extensions. Thank you

[@Acon1882]

I tried this last night, and I'm pretty pleased with the results! Thanks for posting! My hair is not as long as yours but I am very inspired by you!

[@tamiwithani]

I did the exact same thing except i wound my hair (like if doing a bantu knot but without wrapping it up into the knot. Twists gave me more knots surprisingly because my hair wraps up on itself when twisted)...i pinned the wound section the same way she did and it was SO PRETTY. took two days to dry but it was AWESOME. thank you Wit!.

[@PerkyBlackChick]

Your hair had me calling on the Lord! Gorgeous! Hope to have that length in 5 more years lol.

[@aug505]

So I just tried this last night and IT WORKED!!!! I have 3c-4a hair and I was super surprised and pleased with the results!!!!!! NOTE: you hair does have to be completely dried before you take it down. Thanks Naptural85 your a live saver :)

[@ScottishCurlyMusical]

omg thank you so much, totally saved my hair from loads of product in it and it looks so much more natural now than over dosing on mousse! best curly hair video ever, life saver!

[@sneakachick1705]

Love love...I have been wearing my hair natural for a year and cannot wait until my twists are as long as yours.

[@77pinky]

sooo....I did this routine last night knowing it wouldn't work on my hair and i'll be darned if this isn't the best hair i've had since being natural. it just goes to show you don't need expensive products to have fabulous hair. Lesson learned. Thanks Whitney!

[@gwenn4ya]

OMGeeee! Your hair is the best! My jaw was on the floor the entire film. I couldn't help it!! Your hair is gorgeous you hear me!! Love the vid!

[@Uniquaization]

Its definitely a learning experience, you are not alone. I cringe in horror at what I used to do to my hair in my lazy-I-dont-care-just-make-it-look-good days. How did my poor hair ever survive! I believe our hair is the most beautiful there is. But it can also take the most effort.

[@tantrum1981]

I need this hair in my life - only 3 more years to go! lol. It's coming along nicely after one year, but i'm so looking forward to styles like this - love it!

[@EvonDee]

I put my oil in a hair color applicator. It makes it easier to dispense. Looking beautiful as always and Olivia is so precious!

[@sharon4951]

Thank you for sending me back to this one. Love it still in 2023! ❤

[@LovePMarie]

I gave this a try last night. Just did my take down and my curls look absolutely beautiful! I was looking for a quick summer style & I found it! Thanks Nap!

[@rachray83]

your hair is so pretty, I love how it always has texture to it, its never a frizz ball where you have to search for curls [at least not on camera :-) ]

[@forenzadriver1]

This is my new go to style. Just re-twist when it looks a little frizzy and its good to go again for a few days.

[@randomwithcharli33]

Thank you so much for this! I literally just went natural but I have never been good at doing hair so I was terrified I was going to train wreck but I was able to do this and it turned out really well! Thanks again!

[@MysTaria87]

Whitney, you're so pretty and I LOVE how you do your hair.! I'm gonna have to try this one day.

[@mrskendallwilliams]

Try a sleek low sock bun! I did that when I graduated with my B.S. If you do it early enough the night before, it will lay down nicely all day. I used gel to smooth down the edges, then took a blow dryer to it for a quick minute. When it was dry/semi dry, I wrapped the pulled-back section with my scarf and I was good to go!

[@kenc3472]

I love these results on my hair. Even though we have completely different hair textures. Anybody who wants to try this look should just go for it !

[@awdreamer2012]

I just did this process on my hair and I can't wait to see what it looks like when I take the twists down!

[@LaisaLeroy]

I tried this style and I absolutely love it! Definitely doing this one more often from now on!

[@Scynthea]

I tried this method on my hair and it worked. One thing that I never did was let my hair fully dry. That is the key to eliminating frizz. My hair is shorter so I made adjustments but the oil to seal is the best for keeping my hair moist. I think in winter more is required than just oil maybe shea butter. That helped me this past winter but I don't need it as much now that it is warmer.

[@missp2513]

I have a tight curl pattern as well that easily frizzes and I would definitely NOT let my hair completely dry then separate. I do something similar to this but I separate my curls when my hair is 75-80% dry. The little moisture that's still present helps to prevent the frizz. It won't be as stretched as her hair but that's what works for me. And yes as was mentioned separate with lots of oil on your hands.

[@shaykay1079]

I totally understand what you mean. I have a very, very tight COIL pattern (so tight it's no longer curls but coils). Separating causes more frizz and less definition, but I think it's safe so say the tighter your pattern the less of a chance at definition you have. However, we get lots of volume with our hair, which I think is a good bonus.

[@EricaMaria99]

Love the results and even loving it more because the steps are pretty straight forward. For those who have tried this style, what is your night routine like and how long have you been able to hold the style?

[@cj25674]

The music on your videos are so relaxing. I can't wait till my hair is long enough to try this method!

[@Jerusalem23]

Do your thing girl and good luck. you are going to have fun with it. just make sure you keep watching naptural and other natural channels and blogs for inspiration.

[@cocoYoungify]

I tried this last night and it worked wonderfully.. I have pretty waves all day and it was such a time saver.. Thanks soo much for this tutorial it's really a time saver.. :)

[@LadyT0310]

Love the video! On a side note, THANKS for all the videos on mini twists! I've always wanted to wear them, but because I have thick and FINE hair, I always feel like it looks anemic when I do mini twists, but your styles and ideas give me hope for a diverse look! I've only worn them for about a week at a time, but I'm going to challenge myself to go a full 4 weeks! Thanks again! : )

[@mahoganysoul69]

Your hair is so awesome! Thanks for showing us how easy natural hair can be

[@pstaver1]

Thanks for another great video! As with your last video, I tried it and LOVED it! Cut down my wash and style time, detangling wasn't a nightmare and the results were great. I have 4c hair texture and this worked well for me. Of course it didn't look exactly like Whitney's but I got a nice result that I am very happy with. You have to take the suggestions made in the video and tailor it to your own hair. Thanks again, Whitney!

[@pgwats]

Tried this and I am so happy to find a truly quick and easy way to wash hair. Thank you, thank you!
