This is what I need. I’m 6 years in and only 10 inches. Kept my hair braided all year and only grew 2 inches

[@melanatedcutie748]

@@aisha-3857 I have friends who went through something similar. I think you might be leaving your protective styles in too long. If you haven't tried this already, try leaving them in for maybe four-six months instead of a year to give your hair at least a week (or two) to breathe. Then braid it back up again and you'll hopefully get more effective results when you take your hair down. I hope these tips are both helpful and useful.🤞🏾🤞🏾🥰

the outcome is amazing 🤩 it looks more like a blowout, but I love a blowout over a silk press any day 🙌🏽 one suggestion I do have is to use a heat protectant serum when flat ironing/pressing instead of a spray. Heat protectant sprays are perfect for blow drying 👍🏽 you’ll also get a sleeker result with a serum 😊

@@KC_90 Im sure with all the work she put in doing her hair she was not looking for a blow out look .

[@CurlfulThoughts]

Revair is hands down better than the Revlon brush. My 6 yo daughter and I both have waist length 4a/b natural hair. It takes less time, less heat, no ripping, and hardly no tears/whining during the process. Our hair is more stretched. I haven't flat ironed yet bc it rains in my state ALL THE TIME. However, I assume it wouldn't take much heat to get bone straight hair with the straightener afterwards. Fluff nugget is gorgeous, and so are you! Congrats on your progress!!

[@gensai93]

How long does it take to blow dry compared to a regular blow dryer?

[@CurlfulThoughts]

@gensai93 Revair= 35-40 min compared to over an hour with Revlon. Plus, my arms aren't sore afterward.

[@jeanninegorden8142]

Aww the Sam doll is so cute! So creative

[@AK01318]

If you want an alternative you could try doing a rollerset! Mo Knows Hair has some great videos on how to do it properly. It'll take longer because you MUST sit under a hooded dryer and dry your hair to completion. But there's 0 chance of heat damage because you're not applying direct heat, unless you use a flat iron to press your roots.

[@lmgeranaeava9749]

I LOOOOOOVE Mo too! Great idea for her!

[@allisonh6217]

Your hair had grown and thickened so much. I still refer back to your older videos as I feel we (past you and i) have similar hair issues. So sorry about the humidity on your hair x

[@Laoriginal718]

Minimal heat definitely helps retain hair length. Once I learned that I stopped using direct heat. I only flat iron my hair once every 3 months sometimes I’ll go even longer.

[@sigreddasparks16]

Yes same I went like 2 months and didn't blowdry my hair and when I finally did I was like omg my hair is touching my collarbone 😍😍😍 so it's so exciting to see that everyone is on this journey and helping each other put and growing their hair!

[@Quiteinfamous]

I used to only finger detangle but as a person with really thick hair I realized I wasn’t getting all the shed hair out. I should probably to go back to only finger detangling every other wash because I feel like I had better length retention I also would probably recommend to get a silk press by a professional because when I try to do a silk press it looks like yours. We can’t be talented at everything 😅

[@starzzzy22]

I had this same issue. For years I only finger detangled, but it didn’t get the job done. Switched to deep conditioning and detangling with a brush before shampooing and got better results and less matting.

[@lmgeranaeava9749]

Do you own a steamer? (Hooded, Face or professional, not a clothing) That would help with the silkening effect of the hair because it allow conditioners and water to DIRECTLY into the hair's cuticle. Have you seen the tiktok steam and silk press videos?

[@bgichuru]

OMG the change from the humidity... I felt that on a super deep level!!!!😫😫

[@ncd313]

I heard a good straightening technique is to blow it out, twist it up and then straighten it the next day. Basically this helps it swell up and take in all the moisture and when you straighten it after it’ll last longer ❤ next year maybe you can try :)

[@depnewshound]

I didn’t realize how much I missed seeing footage like this until I watched it. Classic Star Puppy. Fluff Nugget looks great.

[@gloriaa.4858]

I remember 2018 when you had four strands, and I had 2 strands left (which is why I subscribed.) I've been watching youtubers who used the Tymo straightener and I was thinking of getting one for my own special birthday gift. Well, I'm still not sure. Looks like a lot of work, but your hair is gorgeous no matter what you do.

[@fancyorangemittens]

[@anon877]

OG here, this was a journey fr and I enjoyed all of it. Your hair really flourished.

[@starzzzy22]

Suggestion for deep conditioning: look into a soft bonnet dryer. They’re really great and easy to store. While I’ll blow dry my own hair, I would always go to a trusted stylist for a silk press. That way I got great results, a trim and my arms got to rest 😂.

[@mspishposh]

Fluff nugget is doing amazing! You’re not getting a silkier lasting finish because you need to be a little more specific about your method/tools you’re using. Us dense thin high shrinkage 4c hair girlies have to focus more on technique. Especially if u don’t straighten your hair often.

[@savannahsimon5440]

Hey, have you heard of JenniferRose or iamblackgirlcurls? They have completely changed how I care for my hair and have helped many women with simple hair care, hydration and length retention. Braids (with extensions) can do more harm than good in some cases because the synthetic fiber can cause friction against your natural hair strands and damage the cuticle especially if left in for an extended period. Also, washing once a month is only 12 times per year which is depriving your hair of moisture (water) that’s obtained during the cleansing and conditioning process. It’s best to wash every 7-10 days if you can maybe 14 at least. It may sounds like a lot, but the more frequently and consistently you do it, the better and faster the process becomes. There are hydrating shampoos that can be used to prevent too much moisture loss. Regular shampooing and conditioning also cuts out the need for pre poo and weekly deep conditioning! Additionally, it’s important to get regular trims as the ends are the oldest part of your hair and splits only hinder length retention. The frequency varies based on how you handle your hair and your texture etc. but stylists usually say once every 4 months at least. One other thing, if you haven’t had blood work done recently, check your vitamin levels as things like iron deficiency can cause hair loss/breakage/thinning. Hope this helps ❤

I think everything you did up to straightening your hair was great! I ran into the same issue with my 4c hair when I tried to straighten it and I'm pretty sure it was because I didn't use any anti-humectant/ anti-humidity products with the heat protectant to keep my hair from shrinking back up! Some leave in conditioners or cream based silk serums should work to combat the humidity the next time you straighten your hair!

[@Ilikefrogs..]

At some point in your natural hair journey, your hair just decides it no longer deigns to be straight and it stops responding to heat the same way. Especially if you don't straighten your hair regularly. My hair did that a few years so I eventually gave up on flat ironing it. Even when it did go somewhat straight, it would clump together like it was still curly unless I combed it every five minutes. Eventually you just gotta let it go.
