You hit it right on the head. It takes WORK! I feel really insulted when people say that the ONLY reason my hair is long is because of genetics. This is the result of seven years of deep conditioning, gentle handling, oiling, and yes even praying. What you get from Mom and Dad is only going to take you so far.

@kitcatmeeow5717 жыл бұрын
MsFlamingFlamer , no one ever said that every natural care "method," works for EVERY natural curly girl. The wash n go, works for SOME textures and not for others. The wash n go is ALSO LIMITED to the geographical climate you live or visit. I have used the wash n go since 1990. But, I also live in a warm climate. If I lived in a cold climate, I would NOT use the wash n go method, because it is WAAAY TOO COLD to do this! So, ALL of these factors have to be considered, including exercise regimine, heavy perspiration, etc.
@MsFlamingFlamer7 жыл бұрын
Kitcat Meeow never said it didnt "work". i like it and it looks good but it should be called something besides a wash n go. its labour intensive to define each curl, make sure there is enough product, dry etc. its easier for me to just twist my hair or even put curlers in. i can do 8 flat twists in my head and call it a day as opposed to a wash n go and making sure every single curl is good and then waiting for it to dry or risk heat damage by diffusing.

Products for my natural hair are no longer expensive. A capful of any shampoo for dry hair mixed with a cup of water is all I need. Any conditioner mixed with a little of my fave oil turns a cheap product into an expensive one. Honey pre poo or bentonite clay & water deep conditioner once a month also leaves my hair in great shape. Finally, buy a real aloe vera leaf, spoon the gel inside into a blender, blend, pour into ice cube molds and freeze. Pop a couple out when you need them, melt, add some oil - BOOM - all natural gel. Rake it thru wet detangled hair and you look like a million bucks for pennies.

TIP: 1) buy your hair products from places you know you can return them. 2) Don't try to force products to work. If you have to use fist fulls of a product it doesn't work. go get your money back. 3) not all popular items are for you. ex: a lot of people love coconut oil but it's not for everyone. for some people it just sits on top of the scalp and clog the pores and cause irritation. it can also cause breakage over time because it blocks moisture or can make your hair hard because it has a ton of protein. 4) technique and the right products are the key to a speedy wash day. Slip & moisture are the most important thing when looking for conditioners and styling products. 5) it's common to have multiple textures it does not mean you did something wrong or something is wrong with you. 6) be very careful of curly cuts. they're popular but it's not the best method for everyone. do your research for what method will work for you.

Great video. You kept it all the way real. I think the key is learning to master your hair and that takes time and trial-and-error. I'm ashamed to say it took me years to figure out that my hair needs to be ph balanced...the end. Using a lot of products from different lines with different ph levels would give me crazy dry results....like tumbleweed. I tried everything, eliminating coconut oil, hard water, shea butter, and glycerin. Now I've discovered that I get more definition and less frizz when my products start at a ph of 6 to wash and then lower with each step (leave in, moisturizer) to about 4.5. If I have products with a higher ph I want to use I just add a little acv or aloe Vera to lower the ph (add to what you're using not the bottle or container). Everyone's hair is different...I see youtubers slather all kinds of products on their hair and get awesome results but not I. Another suggestion is that when trying a new product line you should start with clean clarified hair to really see how the product performs

I went to the salon once every 2-3month but in between that I had to figure it out. I can understand how if you never did your own hair that going natural can be a game changer. But I think in the long run it is worth the learning curve. Not only because of the length and all that but because women and men can get a piece of their heritage back. It's our hair but some of us never grow up with others teaching us how to braid or nurture it, lost knowledge. The result is a rude awakening when we try now but hopefully, the next generation won't face that, we will pass on our knowledge.

I went natural because my hair was so damaged from perms. When I went natural that wasn't even a term yet. I went to a beautician I knew and asked to have the perm cut off; and there happened to be a woman there getting her hair twisted. My stylist asked if I wanted something like that and I said yes because I didn't know what else to do with my hair. By the time she cut off all the perm, my hair went from just past my shoulders to barely an inch long. I didn't cry but I did tear up a little. By the time she was done I really liked the twists...but I still didn't know what to do with my hair so I just kept going to the beauty shop every 2 weeks to get retwisted. I actually loved my hair super short so it would grow to scraping my shoulders and I would have it cut again. After going on this circle for about two years I finally discovered KZbin and that there was people like me with natural hair on there; this was like 2007 and so I began to binge on everything natural and instead of going to the beauty shop every two weeks I would go every 3 weeks and that extra week I would play in my hair and try new things out. I did just what you said and it was perfect, plus I didn't have to commit to it for long because I was going back to the beauty shop. I found out on my own, just like you, that what I was seeing on KZbin took more time than in the video (though they were more real back then about how long things take). When I got paid I'd buy a new product. Best thing I did as a new natural was find a subscription to hair products because it let me try a lot of things for just a little money. Thanks for the great video. Your tips and expectations were great and something that I too wish someone had said...even though there was no one that I knew to ask at that time. Its better now because there is so much knowledge out there. Its not so good now because a lot of people on KZbin want to portray themselves as the "Perfect Natural" and there's just no such thing. I'm definitely going to share this with some people I know because you give great expectations. Thanks again!

When I got home, I had to repeat the process and do all the extras know as a wash-n-go now. You also gave the correct advice about rethinking going natural if you don't have the time to care for your hair. The more I look at your hair...I see 4a, 4b, & 4c textures.

That was so real about watching a KZbinr's technique, trying it and failing and then in my case, transferring the disappointment to almost resenting my hair type instead of realizing it just takes practice and/or modifying the technique to my particular hair needs. Crazy because anything else we do (sports, our work, etc.) we understand it takes practice. You're awesome, please keep it up :)

Yes to all of this! I think I tried a wash n go. My hair has two textures, but both are thick. Washing it is a literal chore. No one told me, I would have a pattern of bad hair days. My curls will start out crazy. Because I got a perm at 11, put years of heat and products in my hair, also dyed it once. So because of those things, my hair went through a limpy like stage. You must wear a nightcap. Not just to wear it to make hair somewhat manageable. Also to protect your face. Because silk pillowcase + no cap= an oily face in the morning. I have a lot of stuff I would have loved to known about. But I love how it is now. Strong, curly, healthy, and so thick. Those bad hair days suck. But there are days where I am digging how it looks. Like I can conquer the world!

OK Dee Dee, I had to stop the video at 5:55 and pause...Girl, how do you know me so well and you know my struggle? 🙄 I've been fully natural since January and it's so much more time consuming and challenging than I thought it would be. And YES, nobody told me this 😡! The mornings are the worst! I "Big Chopped" and my hair is currently in a short tapered cut, so when I wake up - I've got a dark brown cotton ball on my head. From the moment I get up, I'm preparing my daily hair products for my 20 minute morning routine....😂 Okay...back to the video!

Girl... in this video you was truly preaching! U are my new favorite natural hair KZbin channel! After watching several of your videos u seem real and genuine about your hair and the information you give. B4 I went natural I watched natural85 and mahoganycurls and I actually thought that my natural hair would be like there's but my hair ended up being very different. I didn't know how unique each woman's natural hair pattern was. I was completely ignorant because my sister is a professional beautician and did my hair my entire childhood and teen years. Now my back and sides are shaved because I didn't have the time and patience for my hair. The top part is now natural because over a year ago a texturized my hair to loosen the pattern but it's since grown out. I'm trying not to texturize again but if I do whatever. Anyways you are truly a hair inspiration keep doing what your doing!

BEST VIDEO EVER!!!!! I've been natural for a year and before that I wore weaves. I didn't do a big chop or anything and I didn't consider it a journey I just stopped wearing weave. My hair has grown in the past 12 months which is great. I wished I watched this video before I stopped wearing weave as this is most honest video on you tube! I was so bombarded with terminology, and the pressure to have my hair turn out looking like the girl on the vid! And the cost, girl if you think it's expensive in America, it's double in UK.. I'm having surgery in August and believe I'm wearing a weave as I'm in hospital for a week and have a 12 week recovery - and unlike every other natural I won't be calling it a "protective style" ITS WEAVE and it's my hair and my choice. - thank you for your honesty!!!!

Love this video! Great advice! I happened upon it when I first went natural 5 months ago and I just re-watched it and am glad I followed your advice in the beginning! Wash n go videos I saw were not for me! I want a wash n go to be just that! My hair looks best right out of the shower so I put my leave in, oil and my curl activator and my gel, shake my head and go! I let it air dry - it still takes more than a day for my hair to dry so shrinkage is not a big deal for me anymore now that I have a little length to it. BE PATIENT was the best advice for me! I hated my natural hair at first because I didn't see a curl pattern. Once I found what my hair needed, it got easier from there. I've learned so much about my hair watching the YT videos and now I'm so happy with my results! Thanks for putting me on the right track!

I have very fine hair strands, but also high density hair (I'm 4c) This means that when I detangle I have to be extra extra careful to not break my hair because of how fine it is. My detangling sessions alone can last about two hours - this is outside of washing, D.C'ing and styling which can set me back another three hours or so. Natural hair is so time consuming; and you're right, so many KZbinr's don't tell you how much time they actually spend on their hair. It's so great to see a video that tells it like it is. I've followed the natural hair community for so long and recently decided to unfollow so many people from KZbin and Instagram because I got tired of the nonsense. The natural community is supposed to uplift us and show us how to be comfortable in our own skin, yet all I've seen is colourism, preferential treatment to certain hair types and obsession with curl definition etc. It doesn't feel real at all. It's great to see someone who can still be real and share the good, the bad and the ugly, so people can at least know what to expect.

I stopped relaxing my hair in 2011, I minimized straightening my hair since 2012, and I cut my relaxed ends in 2013 and now I am here with 17 inches in the front, 15 inches in the crown, and I had troubles in the back so its about 11 inches since May. (Next length check is in one month). The back grew 2 inches in 3 months. Its trying to catch up. Collectively, my hair is passed my shoulders now, even the back part of my head. Im happy with my natural hair and it takes a lot of patience and trial and error, but I like my "poofs" and my hair is extra soft now. Thank you for this video!!

My daughter big chopped 4 years ago. There are "lazy naturals" like my daughter, but they are still natural. She doesn't find going natural" difficult or time consuming because she's not trying to have hair perfection. So then what really does "going natural" mean?
@cateyes21037 жыл бұрын
Going natural simply means growing out/cutting off relaxed hair. As for the products/methods, there's no one right way to do it that defines someone as natural. It's whatever your hair likes.
@DrSimpleBeauty7 жыл бұрын
Yes that's my understanding too. But she conflates going natural with cost of upkeep, and other ancillary and "personal choice" aspects. She defines "going natural" very different from the way you said (and I agree with).
@cateyes21037 жыл бұрын
She didn't really define going natural. In this video I think she was saying everyone's experience will be different and to not base your experience off someone else's. To be realistic about the time it will take for upkeep. Depending on your hair type and thickness, it may be very easy and cheap to care for your hair. If it's super thick and coily, it's going to be time consuming and possibly expensive if you go through a lot of product. It can be especially difficult if your hair is short, thick and curly/kinky.
@devondavis72467 жыл бұрын
This has been true in my experience as well. She mentioned that caring for natural hair is difficult, but IMHO, it's only as difficult as you make it. If you feel like you always have to wear your hair down or in "out" styles, that requires a different type of maintenance than someone who is okay with wearing a protective style for longer. Some people wash once a week, some can go longer than that with good results too. They're all natural either way. It's about the demands that you put on yourself.

Yeah, I"m four years in and I continue to learn about my hair. I see so many styles I want to try but I'm afraid it won't come out right, and I got WAY too much hair, to be wasting time! lol

I'm only 13 but I do everything by myself including washing my hair,deepconditions,treatments,and I trim my hair myself..and i first stopped getting Jerry curls 2 years ago and i initially didn't have the intent to go natural I just didn't get my hair done in a while ..its really hard being natural and doing everything by myself but I'm hopeful..and u were right about the wash and go because the first one I did i didnt put any products in I just left it to dry and it was hooorrriblle..but GOOD LUCK TO ANYONE JUST STARTING THEIR JOURNEY❤❤❤also it's kinda hard cause my mom doesnt wanna waste money on it
