Hi!❤️ My grandfather’s girlfriend is a hairdresser and she told me one of THE MOST effective hair straightening tips: when you go in with the flattening iron, strike with it twice in the middle of the strand of hair, and then one long one on the entire strand. That way it doesn’t burn your hair as much.

Not sure if anyone else mentioned in the comments already (because i didn’t read through them yet), but if you get closer to your roots and hair as well as use the chase method with your denman brush when your blow drying, you won’t have to do as many passes on your hair ☺️.

For the nape here is what I did. I started using peppermint oil. I add it to some jojoba oil and rub it on my scalp every few days. My nape looked like I had an undercut since ive had a relaxer. My nape is now at my collar bone. So basically bald July 2020 to collar bone May 2021.

[@lolsmileyface1057]

Yes girl. Peppermint oil is the truth 🙌🏾 I mix peppermint oil with castor oil and grape seed oil and it helped my hair grow much faster. I also had more density. I also used a vibrating shampoo scrubber to clean the scalp and massage the peppermint oil in after. It’s so soothing and it helps stimulate the scalp.

[@lolsmileyface1057]

@Glocktavious Please Get A J.O.B so the brand I use is Sky Organics. For peppermint, there’s this brand on Amazon called HandCraft Blends. Sky Organics has regular castor oil and Jamaican black castor oil and they also have grape seed oil and peppermint oil, but the peppermint oil is in a smaller container. Just as a reminder, make sure to get organic, AKA cold pressed or expeller oils because they have more nutrients, even if you don’t get Sky Organics! 😊

Omg thank you so much😭😭 this comment is a life saver, i always ask what i should use for nape (disclaimer im not black or lightskin, im asian woth 4c hair) and nobody tells me!!

[@JDenn918]

Yuo peppermint oil is the KEY! it really doesn’t matter what other carrier oils you put it with. Its the peppermint. It stimulates the follicles and increases blood flow to the area. Make sure you keep the nape moisturized so it doesn’t break. I dont have 4c hair but its all in the same boat.

As a white man who is attracted to afro/Caribbean women I have struggled to understand the hair culture. It was a bit of a shock to find how much wigs are used. I thought it was a cultural pressure to use straight hair, and I felt sorry that you had to go to so much trouble. I have always felt how beautiful your natural hair is and how many styles can be achieved. However, seeing this beautiful hair being made straight has removed that culture barrier. Women love to look after their hair, and it is rightfully called their glory. Seeing this hair being straightened through the many stages was so relaxing and effortlessly done, not only was the result beautiful, but I found it was any easy choice to execute. I say " away with wigs " and hello to that beautiful natural hair whatever style you go for, it's all beautiful, (I hope I haven't offended too many people here!! Not intended) great respect. P ❤👀

I really had pleasure watching you do your hair and the outcome. I give thanks to my hairdresser, my own two hands and a salon I visited in LA some decades ago. The best advice and outcome from these three things. I haven't had a silk press for over a decade now, and have not done anyone else's.

[@neonlyrics6270]

this makes me soooo happy to see someone with my same exact hair type. you did so good it looks so professional!!!

[@Officialjadaam]

I had an under cut as well years ago and it’s just growing back longer and fuller . The key is keeping it braided and moisturized

[@Mochalamode]

Your hair is beautiful...try wrapping it afterwards next time with plastic saran wrap for 20 minutes under a dryer to see how much silkier it will be and the style will last soooo much longer.

[@livd184]

Is this wrap for while you condition your hair or after you’ve already flat ironed it?

[@chipotleburrito]

@@livd184 after it’s flat ironed !

[@Whotfiskiara]

Things you did: THAT. These results are so fire omg. Look like what you would get in a salon

[@Shambates]

Thank you!! 🤍

“It’s just hair” has literally been my motto my entire life

[@tonijanelle4400]

I know I’m late answering this, but rice water helped me grow the back of my hair & it grew like crazy. Very natural ingredient and it actually works.

[@95KyBoo]

My arm could never! It looks soo good! Great job!

[@ShayAlliah]

She definitely has more hair than Everybody in the comments.... nobody can convince me otherwise 😍😍😍

[@ShayAlliah]

I do

[@FitBabe]

I’ve always washed my hair in the kitchen sink! That’s where the old school term “kitchen beautician” comes from. Even washed out my relaxers in the kitchen sink back when I got them. I thought this was totally normal!

[@AuthorLHollingsworth]

It is nobody's business whether you wash your hair in the sink or shower. People need to stop trying to dictate people's lives. Your hair looks amazing, and thanks for the video.🥰🥰🥰

[@raeannslife]

Your hair is soo healthy and beautiful 😭😭 making me want to straighten!!!

[@3bonyhehe]

Hair is so healthy & gorgeous!

[@annetteshort8206]

Omgawd! My arms are tired just looking at this video, but your hair turned out beautiful!!!!

[@prettyflytraveler]

I hadn't heard of some of those products and probably wouldn't have given them a second glance on the shelf. I might try some out when I finally get brave enough to do my own silk press. If you can find dupes that are more natural I would love that. I desperately need a trim since it has been more than a year (since before the CV.) Maybe that can be one of your upcoming tutorials. Your hairs looks very healthy and strong. You might want to considering doing a hot oil treatment ever so often with olive oil and a steam cap or a hot towel (old school.) Also, your videos kind of remind me of Mahogany Curls when she first started out. Your sub to view ratio is amazing so you will definitely hit 10K before the end of the year. Keep at it!

[@mrzedwards2u820]

I feel you. I grew up getting my hair washed in the sink as well, and I still wash my hair in the sink. I don’t feel comfortable washing it any other way. Do your thing sis❤😍❤

[@JanAquaSun]

My hair is the same as yours. As it gets longer my curls get more loose and I only put heat on my hair once a year, 2 the max and it's only for a trim. I've definitely had heat damage before and know the difference. Ppl are crazy lol. The sink is the best place to wash your hair. Who wants to deal with wet hair and body just to do a blow out the process to do the hair is already a lot. Do you girl, I don't know anyone who hasn't had their hair washed in a sink. Very beautiful results, doing my hair tonight!

[@Boss_etc853]

thats how most hair is tho, its because of the weight of having more hair which is why it get looser. my hair does the same thing.

[@JazzyJaydas]

I grew up with my hair being washed in the sink. You’re good girl. Don’t worry bout them

[@janetajayi5112]

The slow growth of the nape of your hair can be due to sleeping on your back or your hair rubbing against rough clothing material. Sometimes it just be like that

[@Shambates]

I’m actually a stomach sleeper lol and I rarely wear clothes that are high enough on my neck for my hair to rub against. 🤦‍♀️ I may just need to moisturize wayyyy more.

[@ariel23175]

Yea the front of my hair just grows faster but I don’t mind because it gives my hair a fuller look

[@Asiacanady]

Pleaseee post more natural hair videos!!! I finally found someone with my hair type I’d love to see what you use for your hair 💕

[@berthawilson8297]

Girl I grow up with washing hair in the kitchen sink as well. I don’t know who came for you but they can miss all of us with that!! Loved the video!!!

[@Prettybihhcheytv]

You look like Meg thee stallion in a way with your hair curly 😍😍😍😭

[@lisaj2892]

I was looking for this comment... Yes she does!

[@bryanadunn4919]

She did to me too

[@ethanastubbs3680]

I was scrolling for this comment

[@fabiolaa.8179]

I noticed the nape of my hair grew it's best and quicker when I tie my scarf starting from the nape and not the front of my hair. I then tie the knot on the crown right behind my edges. I then tie a separate scarf, starting from the front to back. Not too tight just taught. I treat the nape of my hair like the front.

[@BlissfulMartini]

How long does this last for you? How does it hold up to humidity? Your results were amazing! ♥️

[@taylortolbert858]

I subscribed as soon as you said you gave yourself an undercut. I did the same thing and currently trying to grow my kitchen back in lmao!

[@meganj1716]

Your hair is beautiful! 😍Both natural and pressed out. I would like to suggest doing a hair mask or using a deep conditioner with heat for about 20-30 mins with each wash especially since you said you have your hair in braids for long periods. It would really get moisture to penetrate deep into the cuticle😊

[@Shambates]

I used to do that a while ago! I should definitely start back. Thanks for the tip! 🤍

[@aderasview9562]

I finally found a woman with my exact hair texture!

[@ladyshenna967]

I have a Babybliss flat iron. I love it.
