How I Grew My Kinky 4c Hair To Waist / Tailbone & My Long Healthy Hair Routine 

I was wondering that's not 4c hair.

Yh I saw the picture before and Yh we have the same hair🤩🤩

Off topic but that looks amazing on your skin complexion. Where did you get it from?

Loool i was confussssed🤣🤣🤣 because I'm saying they're going to come for you in the comment section

😂😂😂

Sameeee I came on here to completely come for her woops

I literally clicked it just to say that her hair wasn’t 4c 😂

Whats upsetting is that the 4c was used as click bait. People with integrity would say Gina curl on 4c hair.

Healthy Chick, lol this is a video on how I grew my natural hair to the length everyone saw and still ask me about. This was not “how to grow hair with a GinaCurl”. I can understand being disappointed I’m not currently natural, but the information is for the many still inquiring about my natural hair. I think it was helpful to share this way, rather than trying to help girls/guys by writing essays in their dms.

instavids, It issss✨

You know it’s healthy hair when the shrinkage is so dramatic 😍

Disrespectful

@@YTD07 "right twix” I love your cute name!🤣

@@miaporche2256 thank you 😊😆 I'm fat lol

What is a Gina curl?

ThatBradyChick I was about to ask the same

@@ThatBradyChick The Gina Curl is in the chemical family of the Japanese Straightening but provides more freedom. It's a three-step process. ... The Gina Curl restructures the hair molecules to reduce frizz \volume, making the hair softer, smoother, shinier, with a curly that is more manageable and moisture balanced.

ThatBradyChick it’s a perm (what white people do to get curly hair)

Periodt like some of these people dont understand that.

Thank you and with this I don't have to watch this video

So y’all will grab her tips, but aren’t willing to stick around long enough to watch at least one ad. 😒

Ppl like you are needed in these comment sections 😭

tammy johnson because youtubers can ramble sometimes. It’s all love.

How many years did she grow her hair for?

Exactly. Our hair grows the same amount of time as other races, it just comes down to retaining length

@@AllThatGlitter224 tips for retaining length?

@@fay7692 Honestly just finding products that work for you and I've learned more than anything, leaving your hair alone. I had a tapered cut, like my sides were shaved down, and in the span of a year its shoulder length (stretch out) because I lived my life in wigs and braids. Also when you're doing protective styles, remember to still take care of your hair or else the protective part to that phrase is useless. so if your wearing wigs make sure your hair is detangled, moisturized and tucked away neatly.. Also you dont need a load of products, a little really does go a long way. I have my shampoo and conditioner, a deep conditioner and then when I'm out the shower I just use a cream, an oil and a tiny bit of gel.

@@AllThatGlitter224 wow, thank you. My big problem is I'm low low porosity so I think I use a lot of cream when I do my twists outs every wash day and that stunts the growth. I also used to wash my hair once a week but now I wash it every 2-3 weeks because im lazy cuz of quarentine I also have not done a protective style since the start of my natural hair journey. My hair has been through years and years of heat and relaxer damage until just a year ago. I didn't do a big chop but it was significant I would say my definitely hair grew thicker and a little bit longer, I really don't know the exact length but I started October 2019 and my hair is not where I thought it would be. I definitely need to do protective styles because my hair grows a lot in braids, I just need to learn how to manage it while it's in braids. I think protective styles and washing more frequently will help my hair grow more

Fay Braids

For real. Single strand knots won't let my hair be great 😭😭

Real Talk! They are the 👿!!!!!! Period.

So true I am telling you the ends are crazy sigh and yes as young as they are the ends are not letting them be great

So true I had to cut my 4c hair back to my neck, because I didn‘t regulary trimmed/cut my ends. Before that it went down to my nipple and I‘m 6ft tall. 😭 So please regulary and PROPERLY trimm your hair ladies

Yeah I learned that I not only have to trim it, but also seal my ends with castor oil

She's stunning

Yes gorgeous looking like a real life brats doll ❤️

Why it's so obvious

She’s gorgeous fr

Can you link the cap

Please! I would like to know it as well!

Girlll tell us which one you use. My hair needs it 😭

Floryanng there’s a hot head deep conditioning cap, you can find it on Etsy! Just pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds, or try one of the attachment hooded dryers that you attach to your blow dry, I got mine from target! Super affordable!

Those hair steamers are pricey lol

Thank you❤

Thanks girl!

Trim ends daily ? Lol

@@SolarLove7 rt? Like nope sis every few months is fine for me 💀.

Briana M Sorry for the wrong wording! She mentioned in the video of trimming every month, and I somehow correlated to that being daily🥴! I meant to do every 3 months (or even 6 months). I’ve edited it to that so people aren’t misinformed

this channel explained the process! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jK0JtAW3YH0.html

Because you like the loser hair more than her natural 4c hair ig

Lol me too

Ju La yes who cares

Ju La and? Maybe we do like it more it’s a preference. Be careful Your insecurities are showing hun.

I just did this last night wtf😭😭damn nobody told me

oh noooo 😭 usually mixing oil with heat especially HIGH heat is very unhealthy but now that you know you can change that. i would say just blow dry with a heat protectant and a leave in so your hair can stay moisturized while blow dried. then you could add oil after your done

I blow dry my hair on the cool setting. I bought a new blow dryer that has a cool setting and I love it.

Not if you have a short torso

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 5’7” and 5’8” are not considered tall for women. They are average. The short tall for women begin at 5’9” 5’9” in average women pants will be in high waters. So.....y’all real funny.

jackseve no it really matters where you live. If you leave in a place with people that are are short then you will be considered tall. Where I live 5”9 is tall for a man. Very rare too. Normal pants would be high for 5”7 women too..

@@jackseve people always call me tall a tall girl and I'm 5'8/5'9, I'm not used to girls being taller than me. I don't see myself as super tall at all though, but apparently most girls are in the 5'4 range. It clearly also depends on where you live

jackseve 5’4- 5’7 is average. 5’8 is above average

Rendaisea Deane, it’s something serious 😭 every wash day I considered getting a pixie cut 😂

@@fruitsarelife148 4c is harder than any other hair texture. It really does take longer to style than someone who has 4a hair.

Marshmallow root conditioner DIY is your friend. It’s the best thing EVER.

Rashawn Taylor, had to let my beloved u-part sewins go 😭

Lmfaoooooooooooo I hollered out loud!

I hollerreed when she said that

Hi! Do you trim dry or wet? With my hair, if I twist after washing & LOC or whatever my hair takes DAYS to dry. So exactly when in the process do you trim? Apologies if what I’m asking isn’t clear!

I might try this!!

Nothing wrong with that! Whatever works for you!

Your hair was chemically altered for 20 years age 9-29 no wonder you never missed it because you never had it half of your lifetime.

mAya SquAw our 4C hair was not made for this climate that’s why we have to do so much with it l. And it is not supposed to be that way. I’m happy with the state of my hair now chemical or no chemical it’s still my hair.

4C hair was not made for Africa either. That’s why the only people in Africa with long 4C hair are those who have braids and keep them in braids for their lifetime. I noticed my hair does not like just being outside.

tisha todd, Thank You🤗🥰 let them knowwww! The ends gots to gooo👋🏾👋🏾

I’m glad you could enjoy 💞

I’m going to have to start twisting my hair. I’ve been kind of stuck at waist length. I do wash and go most of the time. So my curly hair stays around shoulder length which is waist length straight. I’ve also been trimming more often and I can feel the difference. I’m also using sulfur 8, oil and massage to up my game.

cutenobi, have to watch out for allergens but seriously I try everything on my hands first now💗

Yes, that is a very good tip. I’ve done it before but this was a great reminder. She gave a lot of good tips and information in this video. Especially about the ENDS. 😁

Do you use heat when you stretch?

@@graciousgrace7509 I've been wearing medium-sized twists (about 30+ in total) and I moisturize every other day with water and seal with shea butter or oil. Nope. No breakage. I don't even wear a bonnet anymore. I think that leaving ends out is a myth. As long as you keep them trimmed/even and moisturized they won't break. My hair that hangs at the nape always grows best and it always touches/rubs my shirt in twists. It grows like a weed. It's my crown that was having issues so I was always at a length plateau. So I make sure to lightly mist with water 3-4 times per week and seal with any butter or oil. Yes the twists get a tad fuzzy, but they are strong, moisturized and I'm finally retaining length. I just throw them up in a loose, fun ponytail. I had to learn to baby my crown section so it will grow as long as the rest of my hair. My crown was holding me back and my hair would always be in layers. I had to keep chopping the long parts at the neck because the crown wouldn't catch up with the rest. Less is more! I use far fewer products and spend less time on my hair. Now that my twists are so long people think I have locs. I'm like no these are just twists. Ladies, all you need are water and butter/grease to seal. Stop buying all these expensive products. You don't need them. Your hair just wants water and a seal. Don't be afraid of the frizz and shrinkage. Find a style to wear that minimizes it. I don't drench my hair. I just spray my hand and squeeze the water into the twists. Then I add my butter, style and go.

@@Jamjar-iu3ji No. I just put it in 6 jumbo flat twists after shampooing. The next day my hair is stretched and I do medium-sized twists.

We arent being petty (at least im not). Im calling her out on her title. Put Gina curl on 4c hair. then those of us that have 4C hair that are looking for tips on how to manage our unprocesed hair can watch and not waste our time. If you dont act with integrity, be prepared to be called out for it.

Healthy Chick she said in the first 2 minutes of the video that she grew her hair out BEFORE she got a Gina curl. Please watch the video before commenting misinformation

@@healthychick9450 🤡🤡🤡🤡 either you don’t understand English (since she addressed this LITERALLY at the beginning of the video) or you chose to be an idiot. Stay bald

Kellie Bruce, srsly😭 I use to slayyy a u-part sewin but I had to let it go lol😂

Lol I scrolled down looking for this comment

@@TiaBenie I've been blessed by all you ladies boldness to help us love, protect our ... glory! Our crowns! Our hair!, with your hair journey! I'm currently on mine and really appreciate your tips and advice! God bless 🥰

Thought that was me alone 😂😂

@KellieBruce.... I died😭😂😂

Destani Parker, it really was! lol my sister found it

@@TiaBenie vvbbvbbmbfg

Doing God's work👏👏👏

You can try to put Chebe in their hair and twist it. Retains moisture for days

@@dasiahill60 what's that!? Thank you for sharing.

LNB13, I'm glad it could be of help to youuu💞

Thank you loveeee 🤗

What does water have to do with the type of hair you have? I’m confused

@@rae9499 Your curls that don't get enough moisture, can look smaller. Many ppl just have dry hair and call it 4c 💀. They don't understand why porosity matters and how to treat their hair. Then they come with those dumb, "4c can look like this" videos.

@@ruthydrawsalot1979 , thank you i just learned something about my hair.

Meribah McHayle thank you

Not drag her 😂😂

Its on RU-vid to see

A very expensive, jerry curl

@Ole Techie LOL that is crazy

I will definitely have to get this when I go home this summer. I just did the big chop last month I’m natural now and it’s so much work lol

@@Oletechiegirl A Gina Curl. . .Does it drip?😂😂😂"Follow the drip. Follow the drip"💧💧💧💧 Her hair is beautiful, so it must help with length retention

libby daniels, thank you💞

Brittiney M, you’re very welcome 💞

Simone Thatch, thank youuuu💖🥰

Shannon Armstrong, oooooo 👀 I haven’t looked too much into grape seed oil. I’ll definitely have to do some research and maybe give it a try 💞

@@TiaBenie keep doing what your hair loves 🤗👌 well we never know though🤫🤭

@@shannonarmstrong6364 That's a very false myth that just won't go away. Oil is not a heat protectant. Having a high smoke point has nothing to do with protecting a material from heat. Think about this - an egg will still cook quickly in hot oil, even if this oil isn't smoking.

@@Cattitude369 works for me, 48 yrs 😏, and my family generation after generation ...heat up to 420 degrees maybe fry those eggs then lolololol I'm not saying it is a heat protectant and I definitely understand meaning... Thank you so very much

Ms. Orleen u mean legit?

Steve Polamilano yup! Lol with a g! Thanks. 😉

i got my hair "trimmed" two years ago and i'm terrified again. but she right 🙄 i need a trim 😂

Me too why waste money I do it myself and even when i mess up it still looks better then going to someone. There are videos on youtube on cutting your on hair and having curly you don't notice if it's a small mistake.
