You and your hair is absolutely gorgeous! Your video on washing your hair in braids and/or 2 strand twist actually saved my hair, I can't thank you enough for that video bc I wash and deep condition my hair once a week...what a game changer, I'm actually keeping my hair on my head and not on the shower floor.

If you're relaxed, you cant use permanent. Only semi permanent rinses. And they can be done same day.

I like how you address what you do when exercising. So many are afraid to mess their hair up, hence, won't exercise. I'm currently on the fence on going back to relaxed. I'm wearing braids now, but I know the take down and next thing to do with the hair, is my conundrum.

[@hereforit2347]

I went on a hair journey (I’m natural) in 2016. I’m at hip length now, but that’s not the issue. I sleep on silk or satin pillow cases every night. I used to also wrap my hair up in a silk or satin scarf or wear a satin-lined sleep cap. However, I noticed much more itching when I did that because not enough air was getting to my scalp. I stopped covering my head at night about a year ago. I only wrap it at night if I have a silk press or other style I’m trying to preserve, which is rare. I’m so glad I watched your video and saw you in a hair net. It never occurred to me to wear one at night. It’s the perfect solution to cutting down on friction and allowing my scalp to breathe at the same time. I just ordered some on Amazon. Thank you so much! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Wow, your hair has grown so much!

[@cbchang6200]

My hair has been down to almost waist length in the past. Life kind of got in the way and I was not taking daily care of my hair so it broke off. I did a big chop a few months ago and starting my hair care journey again. For me, I use products that do not have any alcohol in them, and a few all-natural organic products I make myself. They are not expensive products, however, they do work for me. Yes, moisturizing the scalp every other day is great and I massage my scalp every day. I do low manipulation as well. I am blessed to work full-time from home. And if I don't have to go on a Zoom meeting, my hair stays in my silk bonnet all day. Most important is daily care and before you know it your hair will be down your back. Thanks for the video!👍😊

I’m slow to put this on my scalp because I’m so oily already. But, eventually I will apply it to see if it clogs my pores. I’m thinking that I will use the Unlay and Rosemary as a scalp treatment before wash. I love the scarf. I will continue to keep you posted. I’m applying Unlay to my granddaughters hair tonight.

I'm going to see how long I can go without washing so often, i believe it is making my hair dry, and I'm in the north now too!!! My hair has fine strands. When i was natural, I washed like every 4-6 months!! I was scared of the tangling, that was a looonnnggg time ago!! And the last natural wash at that time was so tangled, i had to go back to the salon and let them relax it, I couldnt even untangle it!!!! I'm talking over 30 years ago.....

You’re doing it right. It would come in a v shape, since the back is at the back of the head ( lower end) and the front is on top of the head, therefore, it would appear shorter but it’s not. It’s just coming from a longer distance, if you understand what I mean. Keep up the good work.

I’ve always had long hair but recently I’ve wanted to grow it to my waist so I can wear my natural curls during the summer. My issue with longer hair are the tangles! My hair has never been able to tolerate a relaxer. So I use the Rev-Air and a light flat iron. I would really like to get the red color you have and that bonnet! I’m currently using H&H cosmetics Hair thickener to keep my curls moisturized and bouncy.😊

Hello Ianna. Is your hair low porosity? The unlay is my holy graille. I just reordered my bottle. I love it. I will be trying the morrocan oil. I use kera care shampoo and conditioner and it works for me. That unlay is the stuff to get. Thanks for your videos. You have helped me with my hair journey. 😍

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello! My hair is medium porosity. I heard good things as well about Kera care shampoo however I’ve never used it myself. But I agree with you, Unlay is my top recommendation lol. All hair types can use it. And the smell ..❤️❤️❤️ lol love it.

[@angelaurahoneypot]

Ianna, your hair is GORGEOUS and so are you! ❤🤗 My relaxed hair is waist length and grows in a v shape just like yours. However, that v shape makes me feel like it’s slightly “see through” at the V. I had a trim 2 months ago and searched and destroyed 2 weeks ago. Do you think the v shape gives this thinning appearance?

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello! Thank you for watching ❤️The V Shape will definitely give you a more tapered appearance to the ends but should not have a “damaged “ look to the actual stands. The best why to determine if it’s damaged ends or just a tapered look is to look at the hair when it is air dried/without heat. Using heat can mask the damage. Much more obvious on air- dried hair (or blow dry on cool). If the hair is damaged there with be a noticeable area of demarcation where the hair suddenly becomes see through. If no damage… it will just have the V shape. Again this is best seen with no/ minimal heat application. Hope that helps

[@angelaurahoneypot]

Are there any special or certain foods in your diet that helps maintain your healthy growing hair?

Your hair is gorgeous and healthy… I have an honest question: I have 4c hair and I believe I will have more length retention if it’s straight. With relaxers, I’m concerned about the cancer correlation/studies… What’s your opinion on that? Do you use generic relaxers or keratin treatments?

[@newtonmutea]

I have never believed that true. People relax their hair from childhood till old age and they are fine. Also then so many here in Africa would have Cancers.

[@mrsx7944]

Which leave in do you like better? The Moroccan oil leave in or the Living Proof? Also, do you use both leave ins at once? Im a bit confused. You said you moisturize and seal every other day but you also said you go days without touching your hair? Btw you should consider writing a book on relaxed hair care.

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello. Thanks so much for watching. I leave my hair alone as much as possible. If i can wrap it and leave it I will do that for DAYS at a time. If I air dry my hair and it’s simply in a bun I will moisture and seal every few days. Not really combing the hair… just running the product along the length of my hair. I will use both leave-ins at the same time. They serve to different purposes. The Moroccan oil leave in moistures, softens and smells amazing. The living proof keeps the hair strong. Hope that helps 💕

[@mrsx7944]

@IannaYvonne thank you for answering my questions. I never thought about using two leave ins at once but im going to try it. Is it very hard to air dry when you're close to relaxer time? I would think the new growth would be troublesome. I am going to start air drying.

From your experience, is there a difference in how the hair comes out when using optimum relaxer vs ORS relaxer. I used ORS before, and it was ok, I want to know if the optimum might be better.

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello!! Thanks so much for watching ❤️ The main selling point for me with the optimum relaxer is it’s ceramides for hair strengthening and the scalp protectant that comes in the package. I actually use it on the length of my hair to coat/protect it as I relax. Since doing this I experience almost no post relaxer breakage. With the ORS my hair was breakage so much I thought it was normal.

If there is anyone who can tell me how to grow my relaxed hair without protective styling. My previous hairdresser did it went from a bob to bra strap in 2 yrs and I never saw her with her hair up or in a protective style. Not even a ponytail so if there is any one who can do that make a video in my honor please.

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello. Thank you for watching! You can definitely grow long hair without using protective styles. The same tips will apply. Of course, the more you manipulate your hair the more potential for breakage. So low manipulation buns or protective styles really help with retaining length. It’s a tool you can use to achieve your goal, but it’s not a MUST.

[@waterloop5567]

Wait so you just leave your hair unwashed for up to 3 weeks when relaxed? What happens if you wash it every 3 days when you have it relaxed?

[@PrhyanMek]

She would consider frequent washing manipulating the hair. This frequent manipulation could cause breakage and could prevent you from retaining length

I stretch my relaxers to around even 4-5 months so I usually relax 2 or 3 times annually. There a risk of cancer is almost everything you do, even down to what foods you eat. Overall I live a pretty healthy life so feel my risk is low. Continuing with relaxers for now, but may stop in the future.

Honestly the way that people have taken that study out of context is really harming. I believe that with the results of the study was with people who relaxed more than 3-4 times in a year. So I personally used to relax every 3 months because the new growth would just be unmanageable. But I’m working with my hair stylist to stretch to 5-6 months by protective styling and maintaining my scalp health to leave my hair ALONE. But if you’re on the fence and already have a health concern maybe consider bringing it up with your doctor or a health professional to make the best decision for you. Hope this helps and wishing you all the best ☺️☺️

Do you ever wear wigs in between?

[@IannaYvonne]

Hello! Not so much anymore… but at the start of my journey, I STAYED in a wig lol

[@saspee475]

Ugh please no bonnet outside

[@IannaYvonne]

[@Tahiha]

@@Greyce118it’s an embarrassment to the entire black female community. What you present to the public is how you’re perceived. Don’t complain when you’re perceived according to how you present yourself.

Ladies, please don’t be roaming around in bonnets unless you’re going to an appointment it looks ghetto 😂

[@IannaYvonne]

😭😭😭 I wish I cared more about what other people think. I wear my net bonnet out…. But a hat can work too. Someone mentioned a bucket hat. Thank you so much for watching ❤️

[@rayj599]

@@IannaYvonne I felt uneasy when you said bucket hat, so I had to google it and was relieved lol definitely, a cap would be much better! Ps you & your hair are beautiful x

[@girlygirl1890]

I agree.

[@lovelite6737]

If that bonnet got your hair growing and maintaining like that I wouldn’t give a CRAP what people thought or said!!! PERIOD!!🙄

[@rayj599]

@@lovelite6737 the bonnet can be worn at home and also for bed. It doesn’t need to be worn outside during the day what would be the point in having that long hair to hide it under a bonnet, It just gives us a bad name. I think we already go through enough as African & Caribbean women but if you wanna walk around looking ghetto then do you!

[@StarryMoonPoprocks-kr7vm]

Don’t go out in your bonnet! Please! lol

You are just so beautiful. I leave my hair alone too. I don't go out with a bonnet but I wear bonnets or du rags all the time. I also rarely wash my hair. Sounds nasty but know your hair. You have a new subscriber, Me ❤
