[@karameljo4340]

Lori Love hey !!! Recently cut my hair. For the back hair that is getting longer and leaving a line. After the top part of your hair is dry. Try and wear a durag back to front and inside out, so that the seam is on the outside. It Flattens the back really nicely!

[@LoriLoveTV]

Karamel Jo It does work for the most part but sometimes I pull the durag to tight and I still end up with a line despite wearing it inside out which is why I just use a regular scarf. Never tried wearing the durag back to front thanks for the suggestion.

I just cut my hair two months ago. Having short hair is low maintenance HOWEVER having locs, in my opinion, is even lower maintenance. You really just wake up and go until it's time for a retwist.

@Butterfly Thank you so much 😊 Yas!!! I love seeing other women who love their cut as much as I love mine 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. It’s such a no brainer -short hair is just easier!!! I had long hair all my life too and it was especially a big part of my identity as a teenager (long hair was the one thing that saved me from being bullied at times). That all made it so tempting to hold onto my long hair but now that it’s short I don’t foresee myself growing it back anytime soon. Wishing you a Happy Birthday in advance!!!! Whether you decide to grow your hair out this time or to keep it short I hope you continue to enjoy the journey💛💛💛

[@LoriLoveTV]

I don't bleach my own hair. My stylist uses Pravana Chromasilk Extra Light Blonde 10N and 40 Volume developer.

[@gograybechic]

Wow I was shocked you were able to get all that hair laid down. Do you apply any moisture creme on top of the gel. I find that gel flakes a bit on my clients. I usually slick mine down with design essentials foam which I love but gonna try this on my hair. Thanks looks beautiful!!❤️

[@LoriLoveTV]

Thank youuuu ❤️ When I use foam for this style it helps me work faster because it’s more wet than gel and my hair would probably be less crunchy but foam doesn’t lay my hair flat- I have to use gel. My hair only flakes in the front on the first day because I put on a snug scarf while the hair & gel are still wet. I initially have to peel my scarf off slowly once it’s dry and since the scarf is tighter in the front of my hair it flakes a little as I am peeling the scarf off. I apply jojoba oil to the flakes and it usually goes away but if it doesn’t I just pat the area lightly with a damp cloth and that usually works.

[@denisejoseph5193]

Girl, it looks beautiful, I have the same hair type, it just won't stay down, it will curl like crazy, you have to gel it into submission😂

Hi! I recently watched your con video about chopping all of your hair off, as of right now I'm 13 and in 8th grade and my hair has been relaxed since I was 2! I have only seen one picture of me when my hair was natural and my mum explained that she relaxed it because it was too hard to manage 😂😭, I don't know if I should cut all of my hair off but I definitely want it to grow back natural, any tips or advice?

[@LoriLoveTV]

BellTastic Art You do not have to cut your hair in order to go natural. You can slowly transition from relaxed hair to natural hair by trimming your hair over time. I have personally found it easier to just big chop my hair instead of transitioning from relaxed to natural (I did that a few years ago and it was tough-EXTREMELY time consuming to manage on wash day). However, you must be 100% ready for the big chop because it does have its pros but the cons hit different when you are not 100% confident in yourself and committed to the big chop. I hope this helps 🤗

Can a slick down work as a protective under the wig with a wig cap??? Halp! 😢😢

[@LoriLoveTV]

Yes, but use conditioner instead of gel. You just need your hair flat under a wig. I would not use a bunch of gel under a wig. Instead, keep it moisturized, not a ton of product. Cornrows or flat twists would work even better as they will definitely stay flat under a wig.

@@cierrafarmer3246 Gel is just my personal preference for this style. I usually just stick with what works for me. Mousse probably works just as well, but I usually use gel to smooth my hair down.

[@Jacinthashaven]

Can we do this with hair that’s even shorter than yours? Like an inch long

[@LoriLoveTV]

Yes, it actually lays down easier with shorter hair. I have not tried the side part with only an inch of hair so I’m not sure how that would look but it may still work.

[@TallGrass44]

Can this way be used as protective style under wigs?

[@LoriLoveTV]

[@2468whodoweeappreciate]

If i apply mousse before the gel dries and start styling it, would finger waves be achievable? I have 4c hair about the same length as you by the way.

[@LoriLoveTV]

I don’t think so. Tightly coiled hair in its natural state slicked down will simply be coils laid down so it will just look wavy. Your natural curl pattern will be visible regardless of what product you use to lay your hair down so if you use mousse before using the gel, the finger waves will not be smooth finger waves -your natural curl pattern will be visible. In order to achieve finger waves with your natural hair without your curl pattern competing with the style of the finger waves you would have to blow dry your hair first. Blow drying your hair will stretch out your natural curls. Then you’d have to use a product that’s not water-based so that your natural hair does not curl back up. Search “Cool Ass Donj” on yt. Her video: “how to do finger waves on short natural hair | no perm” is a great example of how to do finger waves on natural 4c hair.

I tried laying mine down.. It is just too much. I guess I will try again tome other day.

[@LoriLoveTV]

You have to work in small sections and at a quick pace so that one section doesn’t revert back while working on the other section. Then keep the scarf on for no less than 45 minutes, even longer if possible. It must at least be almost dry before you remove the scarf in order to stay down. If you try again, I hope it works out the next time.

Thank you for sharing

[@LunaLuna_moonchild]

There's one thing I don't understand: You made the big chop (which takes a lot of bravery & confidence) to grow your hair back healthy and strong, and now you bleached it.. Which is probably the worst thing you can do to your hair..

[@LoriLoveTV]

Hair is pretty resilient. In the past, I’ve maintained my hair long, relaxed and bleached all at the same time which is the worst combination. Bleach & relaxer could have been detrimental to my long hair at the time but with healthy hair practices I maintained healthy, mid-back length hair. After going natural, it was extremely time consuming to maintain my hair on my own over the last decade. Yes, I cut my hair due to heat damage but the ease of maintaining short hair was my biggest motivation for my big chop. At the time of my big chop, I was already coloring my hair to cover my grey strands which have been accumulating since I was 16. I just decided to switch up the color for a change because my hair is short and I am not using any heat or any other chemicals, so it’s the least amount of wear and tear on my hair. So far my hair is growing in healthy and my curls are still in tact. My hair is colored by my most trusted stylist (not one of the stylists who caused the heat damage I had). If my stylist saw any extremely detrimental effects of the bleach, I’d quit. Thank you for your concern.

4c..? This is more 4a-4b. We have the same texture for the most part and this is not 4c. Even with your hair picked out, you can see that’s it’s not actually 4c

[@LoriLoveTV]

I’ve always categorized my hair as 4C mainly from my experience before my big chop... My hair was extremely shrunken in its natural state and very time consuming to detangle because of its tight coils. Whenever I tried following KZbin tutorials for different hairstyles my hair never turned out right -twist outs and braid outs always resulted in a head full of frizz and any bit of definition never lasted beyond a day or two. Usually the person in the tutorials that I followed did not have 4C hair (they usually had 4A/4B hair)which led me to assume that my hair is for 4C. It is not my intention to mislead anyone. For better accuracy...The very back of my hair is fine and has loose curls. The top and the sides of my hair is very coiled. The crown is the most tightly coiled and overall my hair can appear dry with a bit of sheen. My stylist defines my curl type as Very Coiled-Type VII on Mizani’sNatural Curl Key.

I don't be knowing what to do with that little stuff in the back. It'll look ridiculous in a ponytail.

I spritz the back with water in the morning, apply a little gel and tie it down with a scarf to refresh the look.

That's not 4c hair

[@LoriLoveTV]

I’ve always categorized my hair as 4C mainly from my experience before my big chop... My hair was extremely shrunken in its natural state and very time consuming to detangle because of its tight coils. Whenever I tried following KZbin tutorials for different hairstyles my hair never turned out right -twist outs and braid outs always resulted in a head full of frizz and any bit of definition never lasted beyond a day or two. Usually the person in the tutorials that I followed did not have 4C hair (they usually had 4A/4B hair)which led me to assume that my hair is for 4C. It is not my intention to mislead anyone.
