What I Learned From Damaging Then Regrowing My Hair

[@Iivfitz]

I know you tend to pre-film your videos, but I’m relieved to see you uploaded your regular Friday upload. I know you live in Florida and had to undergo that crazy hurricane. I’m happy you’re safe.

I also pre-upload! It’s creepy, but had something happened to me, this video would have still published. 👀 BUT! We live on the Atlantic side and made out just fine. 😊

GREAT INFORMATION. I am sure all of us in the natural community have gone through their own ups and downs. The key is to learn, make the necessary changes, and you will see the results. I, myself, did a ton of things to my hair and the ONE THING that kept me from retaining length was constantly doing too many things at one time (Hennas, Clays, Protein, steamers...) All was good and definitely helped; however, doing them too often or combining Henna with Clay mixes, etc. My hair was like okay SIS, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I enjoyed my journey and I learned along the way. Now I keep it simple and occasionally do my clay mixes and protein. I stopped Henna just because it takes too much time and I wanted to get into Demi Perm colors, which are simpler and less time. Thank you for sharing.

I have four daughters and recently I ran across a hair journal that I kept for them. Since each head of hair had its own characteristics, I would jot down what I used so as not to forget what worked. Looking back, I was doing the most and their hair was often dry. Yesterday I found a video from when my oldest daughter was about 9 or 10. She called herself doing a video showing how she moisturized her hair. Poor thing…I taught her to do it that way. That was before I knew the difference between moisturized hair and hydrated hair. It wasn’t until I started doing the maximum hydration method (circa 2015 I believe) that I learned the difference.

Thank you so much for this information! Great video 🥰💙.. I’m going to check out the others videos now 💙

Yep the health of our hair is not determined by how our hair looks when it is styled. Healthy hair does look good when styled but the inverse is not necessarily the same.

The shampoos did have the same great things in them - we were bamboozled by team natural. Should have never stopped going to professional cosmos - I did not know there was a science to hair and the scalp. 😭😭

Does your stylist blow dry your hair to trim or do they cut it like twists the way you did in that video? Happy to hear you weathered the hurricane okay.

[@WhatTheKink]

Actually another way. Both stylists I’ve gone to cut my hair in a wash and go.

[@MoniMeka]

I don't see the link to the video of you cutting your hair. 😢

[@WhatTheKink]

It appears on the screen at the very end of the video. I’ll update the description box to also include it.
