This happened to me. I had to cut off 6 inches of hair because of iron and vitamin D deficiency. It has stopped shedding finally after 8 months. So i did a really good cut and just decided that healthy hair is better than long unhealthy hair. My hair looks and feels better. Thanks for the video.

[@faithmoore7520]

It’s September 26 2022. How long is your hair now?

[@theyylovealexx6500]

What vitamin d pill do you take?

[@kymmistry]

That red lipstick is 🔥. Thank you for you content. My hair usually break off when I wear braids. So it's a wrap on that so called protective style for me.

[@digitallocations1423]

Mine did too, until I started installing the braids myself.

[@kymmistry]

@@digitallocations1423 that's a good idea. I've had my hair braided twice since I've been natural. Both times my hair broke off in spots and gotten thinner.

[@Chinathomas_]

Such a natural beauty

[@annabla1732]

Can someone please explain why the hair breaks off when it is in braids?

[@kymmistry]

@@annabla1732 The first time I left the braids in for 6 weeks. When I took them out my hair was thin and broken off in spots. My stylist said the synthetic hair rubbing my natural hair caused the damage. So the second time I used better hair and smaller braids. When I took it down I had bald spots and thinning around my edges. Braids work for some people, just not for me.

[@corriewaddell5604]

My iron deficiency caused my waist length hair to thin. It happened after having my baby.

[@soraya.e5482]

Don’t stop taking the folic acid until a year after the baby is born same thing happened to me don’t skip either

[@mrsbrownsugarsweetz]

If the iron pills don’t Wk, see ur doctor and have him/her to send u to a hematologist. My ferritin levels were dangerously low and I had to get an iron infusion.

[@Abundantone444]

Had a dream last night of braids down to my butt. I swear it was such a vivid dream.. i was so shocked.. couldnt stop touching it.. im hitting armpit length this year💪🏽❤

[@EarthAngel__1111]

I just came out of braids. I knew it was an issue when I had to tell be braider to comb from the tip to the root. She was literally ripping out my hair. So i am cutting about 2 inches off.

[@daricerobin]

I’ve had my hair trimmed more than once by a professional and my ends still stick together immediately. I take good care of it including a protein- moisture balance. My ends form single stand knots too 🤦🏽‍♀️. My ends are most tamed when they are twisted or tucked away but if I wear it out, it’s a wrap! 😑

[@SELFCAREMODEL]

MINES TOO !

[@nicolef2496]

I'm wondering if there's a product that could keep your ends from tangling? Carol s daughter coco creme moisture butter is too heavy for my hair but I put it on my ends and edges bc my ends break and tangle so much. Maybe oils on your ends? Just to make them more resistant to breaking????

[@KWB466]

When I tell you our heads of hair were twins separated at birth! It is so frustrating and I find that few people have the same issue. I'm on this big trim, single strand knots then big trim merry-go-round and I'm ready to get off!!!

[@daricerobin]

@@KWB466 I have since been able to find a good stylist for trimming. Since I’ve been with her, my ends no longer have those issues.

[@KWB466]

@@daricerobin how often are you getting trims?

[@ChimereTrielle]

I keep telling myself I'm going to start meditating! You just gave me another push to start

[@PowerInYourCurl]

You can do it! Even if you don't do it everyday in silence, you can meditate while you wash the dishes, shower, dance or even while you *cough* sit on the toilet 😂 Insight Timer is a beautifully supportive app if you want to make it a little easier on yourself. Sarah Blondin, Lalah Delia & Justin Michael Williams are some of my favorites on there! 💗

[@ladyt4062]

My daughter meditates!!

[@civilizeddiva]

HeadSpace is. Nice start. A few years ago, I was visiting a classroom teacher at a private school and she was using it in her study skills class.

[@notevenalittle8363]

Not sure if I agree with the trimming schedule. I have found that even if I am off my wash schedule, as long as I moisturize the length and the root, they don't split. I have fine hair but a lot of it. Stress however is a growth killer. Thanks for the information.

[@gizsama]

Agree, I haven't trimmed my hair in 4 years and it looks healthy (I do micro-trims actually, this means looking for individual split ends)

[@abbieroberts3093]

I agree. I just dust when needed.. But really I barely have to cut off a lot of I manage the stress and keep my hair moisturised.

[@HonestLady]

Agree, each to their own, I only trim once in years 😊..depends when needed

[@premierk]

I get spilt ends since I was relaxed. I do stress, but I do my best to stop what I’m doing and go take nap or listen to music. But trim I do every six months but I’ll try every four months

[@PowerInYourCurl]

[@cookiedoughmonstertravels4469]

Great video! I’m glad to see you are back with more gems for us. Just wanted to add a couple things that I’ve noticed because I am on the same journey as you right now. About a year and a half ago I cut several inches off of my hair which was old heat damage from when I first started my natural hair journey. So I had a full head of healthy bra strap length hair after that. From then until now my ends have gotten pretty damaged and I didn’t really know how because I thought I was taking good care of my hair ...although like you said I did neglect my regimen sometimes. I recently cut several inches off of my hair but I did it in about three installments of wash days over the course of I guess three months. My hair is feeling healthier and looking healthier and fuller. Some things that I noticed that led me to cut my hair before I started to see too much breakage in the back and center: out of convenience to our arms, and wrong instruction from our KZbin gurus, most of us are splitting our hair down the middle and styling, detangling, applying products, etc. on each half of our head. What I learned about three years ago when I first was able to start getting my curls to pop was that each section of my hairs curls want to coil in a particular direction. I learned this by detangling my hair with my tangle teaser brush as well as trying to get my wash and go to pop or finger coiling my hair when I had conditioner or gel in it. I learned that if I’m trying to style my hair while it’s split down the middle like doing two braid as a protective style or brushing my hair to each side while I’m detangling to make it easier on my arms I am making my curls in the center of my head go in directions that they are not comfortable with. That causes them to react and flare up which makes the ends frizzy and frayed and try to Tangle up with other curls that are going in other directions. Like you said creating a center section in addition to each side section while I detangle has not only improve the health of my hair it has also improved my curl pattern because I’m allowing my curls to clump the way that they want to. Doing my hair this way has also helped me to find where I have more breakage or single strand knots because since the curls are laying better in the pattern that they want to lay I’m am able to feel my ends and see where they start to get thin or rough or I feel single strand knots within the section. Now that I feel I have cut off the majority of damage, I might do one more cut my next wash day. But most likely I am now on a mission to “search and destroy” until my next scheduled trim which would be in about 3 to 4 months. I observed the exact same breakage pattern and tangleing issues in my mother-in-law‘s hair as she was growing out an old texturizer to go natural. She used two braids as her go to protective style for several years and she suffered a lot of breakage in the same areas we have been discussing. She ended up having to big chop Way more than necessary because of a dreadful tangled wash day. I hope this helps because this was definitely a big game changer for me in terms of recognizing how and why my breakage is happening.

[@taliahjohnson4138]

I'm so glad I found you. I thought I was the only one who had a problem area in the middle nape of my neck😭.The middle back part is thinner and it gives my hair a bit of an odd shape....like a gap in the middle. I'm currently dealing with it.

I had to stop putting my hair in high buns to fix my running ends. The back of my head would just rub against everything and the hair would break off in a W shape

[@itsnotmeitsyou717]

Ive had this issue and i wasnt sure what was causing the breakage until i cut my ends and starting wearing buns only to see after 5 days my nicely cut ends were looking raggedy. However my mom doesnt like me to wear my ends out so i had to do buns that still allowed me to leave my ends exposed lol

[@LM-ur3lc]

This is so weird because high buns caused my breakage by my temples! I guessed from the buns being too tight. Why do you think buns gave you thin ends? Curious because I was going to start doing low loose buns to help the broken hair on my hairline..

[@Storm411z]

Low loose buns have been fine for my hair- it’s the high buns that did me dirty! Now I wear my hair in twists and tuck it into a loose low bun.

[@honeyisnatural5]

So instead of high buns to tie hair up at night, how should we protect our hair at night

Since I was younger in my teens my hair has always grown longer on the side and short in the middle in the back, don’t know why, it literally stills grows like this and I’ll get it cut evenly and it’ll still grow that way 😩

[@PowerInYourCurl]

That happens to me as well. My sides grow so strong and long with minimal effort but my crown and nape need to be watched like a hawk 👁 lol You may need to be extra gentle in the areas that grow a little slower and are most likely more fragile than the rest of your hair. Also, I have just come to accept that my crown is usually shorter than the rest of my hair and that has helped with my anxiety about my hair growth a lot.
