Transitioning from Heat Damage | MY CURLS ARE BACKKK!!

[@nyilahfaye5395]

I’m 16 and I have been struggling with my dead hair for a long time. This video has really helped me ! My hair as a black girl is the most important thing to me and I just want my curls back, I just want to be able to maintain it, I just want to be confident with the natural of it. I have been told I need a big chop, but like I said as a black girl that’s so hard for me

[@Creative.Clouds]

i know right i been going to my beauty salon for almost 5 years now, and every time i wash my hair its STRaight but no curls which is sad for me. because i want my curls back! and i def. don't want a big chop b/c i am a black girl too. I totally agree with you

[@niayalispagan8514]

updates?! do u see results

[@karlapeters8436]

Pls stop saying “I have good hair” all hair is good if it’s growing.

[@brownsierra2607]

Woooahh.ny hair was like that too.when my hair was wet it just smelled burnt🤢super gross.

[@TheKeyisME]

S I E R R A I know that’s how you know it’s bad 🥴

[@hammie1455]

S I E R R A that’s literally my hair rn I’m crying

[@lukesucksballs1069]

Hammie my hair smelt like that when i first started transitioning. trust me, it goes away. Edit: I started transitioning in November of 2019 and I’m still not completely done. Once your hair is straight there’s really no coming back unless you get new growth

[@oneoriginalpjay6680]

Mine smells like that as well, first time ever having heat damage

[@hauniekeyes210]

Mines too 🤦🏽‍♀️ this just happend in April my hair is still straight my curls don’t show like that idk what to do 😢😢 help

[@AllisonSemmes111]

Omg! Recovering from my first silk press right now. I was crying about to cut it all off because I didn’t know how to bring my curls back and your video was so helpful!! Thank you for saving me from an unneeded big chop😭😭😭🙏🏽❤️❤️

[@chloenunkoo]

I’m actually having the same issue😭😭😭😭

[@sydneyyy.v]

Didn’t get a silk press but I straightened my hair for like 2 years and I didn’t do it very correctly. However, my whole head of hair is fine like my curls are there and fine but my bangs are FRIED because my bangs are the most important part of my hair in my opinion. My goal for my bangs is to transition out of heat damage and I want to grow my bangs to my chin and right now my bangs are at my eyes (half of my bangs are already curly and is good.) if any of y’all have any tips then I’d love 2 hear 😄

I just went through this last year and it's a serious process. I love your curl pattern and you for giving us the REAL truth. I'm not sure if you've ever used the Not Your Mother's products, but their deep conditioner is AWESOME. The Royal Honey Naturals Set is life!!!

[@stormyortiz6279]

Oh my gosh. Like can we be friends?!?! First of all you are absolutely beautiful. I feel like I’ve known you my whole life just watching your video for the first time. I literally cannot wait to watch more of your videos. Girl I did my hair so wrong even after the big chop. I’m a black Puerto Rican who grew up in a white household. No one ever taught me this stuff. So what did I do growing up- relaxers and keratin treatments etc. I totally screwed up this hair especially with all the heat. This video gave me hope. Thank you so much!!!

[@amoryll36]

Yes girlfriend 👏🏾I agree with you. You are one of the influencers that turned me to crochet protective styling. Now 5 years later my hair is 100% natural and longer than its ever been. Plus I cut my hair a lot more now because it grows back and its underneath anyway so you miss nothing 👍🏾

[@TheKeyisME]

amoryll36 yess! Omg I’m so glad my advice is helping others! This just made my day ☺️❤️

[@keke8828]

One side of my hair looks like your before and one side looks like your after lol

[@TheKeyisME]

CoversByKeke lol oohh no 😩 I hope it reverts back soon. Try protective styling for a few months

[@keke8828]

TheKeyisME thank you and it’s actually a lot more healthy since I made this comment and I also just got box braids on Saturday so it’s looking up for me😊

[@TheKeyisME]

CoversByKeke yess!! 😍 Be sure to keep your hair moisturized with those braids. I love the leave in conditioning spray by Cantu. Keep me posted on your journey ❤️

[@keke8828]

TheKeyisME thanks for the advice and I will

[@cecemarie90]

I thought it was just me!!!! I need to practice protective styling because this heat is killing my curls.

[@Aniwalker2006]

I have bad hair damage. My hair does no grow fast and I always got it straightened cause my mother said it's the only way I will get into a good college. Well I decided to go natural in the middle of 2020 because I love my curls. My curls are coming back slowly but surely. I don't put any heat in my hair. The front of my hair is definitely more damaged but it's getting better. As for the back, it was never truly damaged. my curls are poppin back there. Your hair looks amazing. I hope my hair will bounce back as well

[@alvionmichelle]

video has really helped, i’ve taken notes!! &’ im super excited to start my process!!

[@jayoh109]

Currently experiencing heat damage and have been depressed all day. It grew out so much and I'm considering cutting it again. It seems I can't keep my hair healthy AND long at the same time. I'm hoping I have some good afternoon watching this video.

[@LollaLilly]

THIS IS ME!!!! I’m so sad right now. I went to a new stylist because mine was unavailable… I really trusted sis- she works for a hair school. Worst mistake of my life!! I normally got blow outs & it NEVER damaged my curls. Never again! 🤦🏽‍♀️ Thanks for this video. ♥️

I was literally seconds away from flat ironing my natural hair i just don't know what else to do to it :( i have BAD heat damage so i just been wearing buns or braids but i miss my flat irons and weave. i can't do these closures it just looks a mess to me. but i refuse to add more damage. Im happy you posted this video thank you so much for the boost. i guess ill go throw my hair in a ponytail UGGH! lol

[@TheKeyisME]

Ashley Cne' ❤️❤️ you have to try a closure wig from me!!! It won’t look a mess lol protective styling was the other way my hair reverted back. I literally had to keep my hands out of it

[@lailah1930]

hey did you see results!?

[@jineatisayiam]

I got heat damage and just freaked out so I cut 3 inches this morning. I am so ticked. I think it was the heat protectant. Some heat protectants have oil in them so when you put the flat iron on it, it fried it.

[@lanazjataylor8346]

I have 2 Pieces in the front that got burnt and it curls but not curly like my hair and I want to cut it more short because they are like little bangs should I just cut it shorter or should I try different methods

[@oneoriginalpjay6680]

I would like to get braids but how would I do this without applying heat? Most braider a need your hair to be blown out

[@hammie1455]

PJaysgotcurlz try blow drying on cool takes long depending on the type of blow drier you have ☺️ hopes this helps

[@jasminedorsey5298]

I get braids without our blow drying, after washing my hair I braid my hair in six braids to stretch it. I do it two days before getting my hair braid.

[@GardenedCoils]

You can naturally stretch your hair with the banding method with scrunchies

[@laurenlocd3180]

I do what jasmine do. When I go get knotless braids they still try to blow dry I tell them NO heat it’s already stretched (I go to the african braiding shop) and they put the blow dryer down. If they cant braid without blow drying I get up and walk out

[@kijo6963]

Do you do cholesterol treatments as well?

[@steveissketchy]

I’m transitioning but some of my ends are curling up but the curls are looser and I’m kinda confused if they are still heat damaged or just naturally looser but I don’t know my ends would be like type 3 when my head is (what I think is) type 4.

[@hiba6654]

Samee😭

[@f.m.5553]

Can this also work on bleached damaged hair? My curls look still fine but they dont look anywhere near my old curls. I went from a 4A/3C to a 3B and really want to get my tighter curls back

not sure I never had bleached hair

not for me

[@lifewjailin2591]

I’m so late to this video but how long did it take you to transition ? I just did a big chop 4 months ago & my hair is still damaged & I see no difference

[@TheKeyisME]

try a protein treatment

[@monaguerrier5519]

and dark castor oil for hair growth. I mix it with other hair oils to liquify. Sweet almond is a good one as it helps with split ends 1ounce dark castor oil 2 ounce other hair oil. Summertime hair grows more go outside and get some natural vitamin D. When you apply it if you feel your scalp tingling that mean your follicles are being stimulate=Growth

[@JelissaEve]

My left front quadrant is completely fried/damaged. It messes up my whole curly vibe. I’ve worn my hair straight my whole life. Haven’t relaxed my hair since June 2009.
