GROW YOUR NATURAL HAIR LONG & FAST | GRWM | Natural Hair | AbbieCurls 

I cut my hair to about shoulder length in July, and when I got it straightened in December I also had about 3-4 inches of growth! I consider myself a lazy natural... I usually keep my hair in twists or braids most of the week also, and then take them down closer to my wash day. You're definitely right- leaving your hair alone definitely retains length and health!

Hello, I started doing this and I notestd a big improvement on my hair frizzy. My daughter loves your accent especially when you say "my hair". Thank you for the tips.

I have to say that these are some of the most realistic, accurate and spot on tips. I also notice for myself much more single strand knots and breakage with wash and gos too. You're right, length retention is key!

Omg finally someone who agrees that wash and gos are actually damaging 😭 everyone on youtube seems to swear by wash and gos. it literally ended up thinning my hair

I hear you about the wash and gos Sis! I am still going to do them but I'm going to incorporate more sealing in with oil because by the end of the week, my hair can be so dry! There's a reason why simple styles like braids and twists have been great for textured hair for centuries... they work! All the best for your hair growth for 2020! x

Great vid! This method is great for *fullness* especially. My hair is long, luscious, and full from root to tip. Minimal breakage from minimal handling and weekly shampoo for clean scalp! Plus the regularity reduces tangles; and wash day is

This makes complete sense to me as I did a long-term transition from shoulder length relaxed to at least shoulder length natural without doing a big chop and braidouts were alI did. After a while I started doing twistouts and finally wash-n-gos. Next came dabbling in color from blond ombre to full blond highlights grown all the way out and then getting blond tips to finally growing my natural color out cutting off every last bit of the color. There was a definite difference, beyond just the color, between my color treated and my natural hair. I miss having the color but LOVE and appreciate my natural hair color even more now. For convenience I'm currently wearing wash-n-gos using amazingly moisturizing products but my plan in the next few weeks is to go back to braidouts so I can start gaining some added length.

EXCELLENT TIPS AND ADVICE! I have been doing this since December after leaving in my cornrows for 4 1/2 months and not washing my hair. My hair got matted and it took me almost 19 hours to get the matted hair out. Needless to say , i suffered tremendous damage. So i started washing my hair weekly and daily moisturizing my hair (yes i moisturized daily because i have extremely dry hair.... it needs to be moisturized daily or it will break). AT this moment i have eleven plats in my hair. I leave my plats in for the whole week before i take them out. I just sprits them with water and moisturized daily. I am a nurse and work three days a week. I put a wig cap on under my wig and go..... and since then my hair has grown several inches... so there is something to leaving your hair in plats :)............ I must say this, you are quite beautiful, personality and all. I had to hit that subscribe button.... Yes, tell those unwanted people to get off your page.

Hiya, I braid my hair all the time as I'm on a hair journey too. I'm hoping and praying to get it to bra strap by summer! Great tips and very helpful, thank you.

Your hair looks beautiful and healthy and you are absolutely right! I had to that exact same thing. I stopped focusing on the length and started focusing on the health of my hair and what was beneficial for my hair and now It's healthier longer and I'm thrilled because at the age of 61 your hair can easily go opposite,thanks so much for sharing this video!

Lovely smile, lovely personality...Great advice!!

I wish I could wear a head wrap 7 days, but unfortunately I can't with my job. But, I do shampoo every week, and I'm gonna start doing less wash and gos!

I've recently went back to shampooing my hair. Maybe even rinsing and repeating. I moved to a place with hard water and it's triggered psoriasis. I have to clean my scalp well to manage it.

I 100% agree with your advice...I did braid outs every night for over a year but left them out in the day and then I did Marley twists in my hair for over a year..Nd left them in 3 weeks at a time with a 2 week break..I saw major growth and health in my hair...at the moment I'm doing Wash and gos and I know it's not the best for my hair...the single stand knots can be crazy..I just miss my hair at times..but you reminded me I need to go back to low manipulation and protective styling.

I love these tips!! your hair type and texture looks sooo similar to mine so I’m going to try this. Thank you!!💓

I’ve been doing the same thing and have seen a huge difference as well

First of all, it's so good to see you, and your hair has grown a lot since you cut it, so whatever you're doing keep it up bc it looks really healthy! And that was a heck of a run on sentence lol 😂 Anyway RU-vid be tripping! I was wondering why your videos stopped popping up on my feed and that's bc they unsubbed me! Your the like third channel that I've found that they've done this. Well anyway now I'm going to catch up on what I have missed.👋💜😊

Thanks for posting this! I am going to try this and see if it helps my hair 😄

Less is more this year for me 🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I'm in love with your product stack 😍 Your hair is beautiful I always shampoo I don't Co-wash tooo, but I deep condition always

It's so funny how I came across your video and this routine. I have been watching your videos from day one. Our hair may look the same but if you look in depth is completely different. I was struggling to keep my hair moisturized and trying to do other peoples techniques just wasn't working for me, my hair and lifestyle. The routine you do is very similar to mine and finally I have found the moisturizing products that keeps my hair on point. I feel that a lot of naturalists or naturals or whatever we call it days do too much to their hair and we look at it, thinking that is the right way but in reality you have to be consistent, keep it minimal and moisturize the hair. My hair has always been long but right now its bra strap for me that's short and am doing simple length retention but I believe I have a scalp condition in comparison to before when my hair was longer. Have been this lenght for a while now and the growth seems very slow. What would you recommend? I'm glad to see this video, I hope that people see this. We need to keep it simple ladies and lads ❤

This is💯. I do the same thing, the only difference is that I add oil to it.

everyone really is different, wash n gos give my type 4 hair life. it stays hydrated and i dont have to brush out my curls to do a braid out. i dont have to manipulate my hair until the next wash day

Great video, Abbie! I chuckled from the chipmunk voice in the beginning.. 😊😎🏆🐿

We have similar textures. However, I don't like the way my braid outs look. Can you please do a tutorial on separating and fluffing your braid outs?

I am new to your channel and I really enjoyed and appreciate your tips on hair growth! I saw you mentioned in the Comment section of The Curlie Closet! Just this morning I took my twists down, after wearing them for a whole week. My hair, which is at armpit length, has been breaking for about a month, as a result of Hydra-fatique (I believe). For some reason, about a month ago, I left deep conditioner in my hair overnight, and the next day my hair started to shed heavily when wet. And, since that time, even though I have used protein treatments, it continues to break. Now I realize that by continuing to remoisturize my hair with water as usual between washes, is not necessarily the best thing to do. I compounded the problem last week by prepooing with just a little water sprayed and my oils, then leaving a plastic bag on for about three hours. When I took the plastic cap off, my hair was soaking. YIKES! Breakage city during detangling... I forgot that I intended to wait until my hair was about 85% dry for my final detangle. I love your tips for 2020! Any suggestions to combat the hydra-fatique?

Love this! Will definitely be trying it as I mostly do wash and go’s. Where do you get your head wraps from? 🔥💗

@AbbieCurls, what do you recommend for growing your edges back in? I agree totally with your advice. I pretty much have started shampooing every wash day, however, I do have a couple of co-wash conditioners that I use when I do not want to do the full wash circle. I am happy that you mentioned that you do not deep condition your hair every time you shampoo. Because with some hair types, too much conditioning can defeat the purpose of a great wash day. I cannot really do wash and goes either. I see that you do have a lot of product. Thank you again for a great video.

U r stunning!!🤩

I didn’t think you were rambling. Great great tips and it makes so much sense about the braids and the less breakage! Question: So let’s say i do twist outs/braids out one night and the next day I want to keep them in, but not the whole retweeting process.. what do you suggest on keeping it moisturized?

I’m definitely gonna do this and see if there will be a difference 💕💕

i love when she says “poppin”

Watching this as i braid my hair lol and loved the video... wash n gos are not for me either😕😕

Can you put your hair type, porosity and density in your RU-vid description. It would be really helpful!

Health problems can slow down growth

i love your accent!
