The Moisturizing Routine You ACTUALLY Need!

[@empresslove2211]

So beautiful, I love seeing the younger generation learning how to take care of their hair and grow it down their backs my sister always had hair down her back naturally I always had to do some work lol thank you hun for the video 🫶🏽

I’m normally a buzz cut girlie but I grew my hair out in about 7 months. All my coworkers thought my hair was fake, all black people by the way!! I told them water, grease and leave in conditioner was all I used. Our hair is very simple!! Watering your hair every day or every 3 days is the key. Black women are horrified of getting their hair wet when in reality it’s the only way to actually put moisture in your hair!!

[@deb5564]

I preach this SOOOOO much! ACTUAL moisture is what we need!!! YESSSSS 🙌🏾

🎉😢It’s is so sad the psychological damage that has been done to many Black people with hair. So many bad haircare practices came along with chemical relaxers & curly perm use. They didn’t have to let racism make them hate their hair & call it nappy even till this day. I thank God I grew up with a family of lovely black women who never called my hair or their own hair nappy. 🌺🌷💅🏾❤️💃🏿💃🏻💃🏽❤️💅🏾🌷🌺

Your hair is so pretty, when my hair was longer I use to do this too, but I did two braids instead of one. My hair grew so long using hair grease and wearing it in two braids on a daily basis.

[@lauriemsdiva]

Wow...finally! This is the first video that l have seen with someone who has hair that looks the same as mine! Your hair is alot longer...but that is the only difference l can see. I am definitely going to try this method cause my hair stays dry. In the past l used grease all the time and my hair loved it. I stopped because a hair stylist said l should use oils instead. Now l am going back to grease because as l said my hair is always dry.

Your scalp don't ever stink from wet styling? I love wet styling because once you take the scarf off its so sleek but the inside (base of the hair) still be wet even days later and then it gets a mildew smell. I stopped doing because of that.

[@alexusiman]

It is a little damp in the middle section where the hair tie is but personally I never have a mildew smell

[@Cantetinza17]

Yeah I have thick dense hair, so doing that doesn't work for my scalp. I already suffered for trying it. I think those with thinner hair can get away with that.

[@xashhl0veex]

I can only style my hair when it's wet from after washing it, whether i put braids, twists, or a ponytail because it's so much more manageable than working with dry hair. Personally me neither my hair never smells or anything, in fact it be smelling good like the products even days or weeks later after taking the style out

[@Helenodraculus]

Not if you wash your hair regularly and really good. Your hair will always smell like the products you use. My hair is VERY thick and it’s waist length so I have to style it while it’s wet.

[@Cantetinza17]

@Helenodraculus I can style it wet, but I have to dry it after. Wah and goes I can't do unless I have time to dry it properly.

[@christines1821]

I have high porosity hair as well do you air dry or use a diffuser or blow dryer . I use blue magic as well nothing else keeps this high po hair moisturized

[@alexusiman]

I air dry and let my curls set in and then when I feel they are locked in and not as wet I blow dry on the cool setting
