Growing up i often wondered why my hair wouldn't grow the way my friend with straight hair would. Little did we know, all we had to do was, stop relaxing our hair and let it grow out naturally. We have beautiful hair. Now my hair is long and i love it. But not as long as yours. So now i am going to do exactly what you're doing cause girl, you're obviously doing the right thing. Now that's a beautiful head of hair.

I had SUPER long hair when I was little when my Ma used to relax my hair. It was a lot about the haircare and styling she did in-between. Our hair can grow. We just have to handle it with a little more care.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with relaxing your hair and relaxed hair does grow, stop trying to make people with relaxed hair feel bad

I just kept learning, and praying, until I had my own epiphany. Hair is DNA you are the ONLY one with your hair characteristics. So trial and error is your friend. I can't even part my hair! I have to use my fingers and can't comb or brush unless I want breakage. I'm trying to make videos to represent for the delicate haired folks like me. It's not my fault it's naturally weak. I just had to wake up and become aware and change how I treat it to see some health.

[@SincerelyTahiry]

This was like watching my own hair routine except I do braids 😂😂. After my first big chop I realized that my hair does not like being out. Doing twist outs and braid outs consistently just dries my hair and makes it tangled af. Also I wear hijab so having a fro everyday was just not realistic. 3 years ago I big chopped my hair for the second time and have been doing these mini braids ever since. Because of this my hair grows consistently 6-7 inches a year. It’s currently passing armpit length and I couldn’t be happier with my overall health and growth ❤️❤️

And I realized that the only reason why is because I was too lazy to keep manipulating it and I rarely retwisted it. I wanted to keep my hair healthy and keep it continually growing, but I didn't know how to w/o damaging it again, plus I was scared cuz my schedule is so busy.
