I did an experiment to see for myself if trims are really needed for length retention/long hair and documented the process for you. Watch this video to see the results and my conclusions.

Check out Indigenous Strandz. She's a thigh length, high porosity, 4b natural non-trimmer. 22nd Century Natural Woman is another one with super long hair who doesn't trim. Bottom line know your hair. Long length can be obtained either way. Don't just trim because everyone else is. Like GB, do your own experiment.

@nikarmour7671 4 года назад

Indigenous Strandz immediately came to mind after I watched this video 😄. Perhaps it has to do with how much care she shows her ends. From some comments I've read on different videos, I lot of people aren't willing to put in that kind of work on their hair.

@TheLordsPrecious 4 года назад

I think some ppl's hair just has more tolerance than others (whether genetics, hair care regimen, or styling techniques aid in it). I don't trim as often as I should/could, but I still retain length. Mind you, I do get tangles & breakage, but not enough to fully counteract growth. My hair is 4abc/waistlength-tailbone & I keep it twisted most of the time with mini-seasons of WNGs. Would it be healthier with regular trims? Probably. But I'm a lazy natural & just not that committed (yet).

@curlslegitbaby2981 4 года назад

Yes you said a mouthful!! I retain more and have healthy ends with less trimming

@germyw 4 года назад

It depends on the hair but MOST should trim. That strandz lady must just have knot-resistant hair. There is a Jamaican "natural" (she dyed her nat. hair) whose hair, though 4c, doesn't really curl on itself. It's coarse, it's curly but it lays kinda flat. That's unusual. Maybe those other ladies have "different" hair. My 4c and my daughter's 4b must be trimmed. Ymmv, i guess.

@CrumbCat. 4 года назад

Remember Indigenous Strantz puts Flaxseed on her ends to keep the knots at bay. 22nd Century uses the search and destroy method. I keep sheers in all my styling areas and will everyday pamper my ends using multiple methods. Green Beauty is in my top three.

You're right. She also doesn't use commercial shampoo and conditioner which I am starting to think cause more damage causing us to need those trims. Come to think of it 22nd Century Natural Woman doesn't use commercial hair products either. Her hair is also super long and healthy and she doesn't trim. Both ladies use COMPLETELY natural hair care. There must be something to that. I myself am experimenting with that.

I'm in there about every 6 weeks and take off only the stragglies and the SSKs (1/8th in.). This stops my hair from fighting itself and damaging itself. It retains length. I'm about 1 inch from waist length.

@@ilovesesshomarusama716 I hear you. That is about hair care. Whatever you're doing is good enough to get you to 3 inches from WL. I was there in the spring of this year and started using henna and leaving my hair in twists for 4 to 5 days at a time. It made a huge difference and I've retained inches since then.

@vastya.3255 4 года назад

this is what happened in my hair journey and i always blamed my hair, i reached mid back length but with tons of breakage and ssks at the ends and i got so frustrated i cut off my hair, as i was cutting my hair i noticed how freely my hands could run through my hair and then it all hit me: i hadn’t been trimming at all since my transitioning phase, so yeah i cut of my hair and i have a twa now and i’ll remember to trim because it’s so important. im not gonna do a specific trimming schedule , i’ll just trim it whenever my hair shows any signs (difficulty detangling my ends, ends getting snagged in combs, fairy knots, etc etc) and now im gonna retain my length and im sure my hair will get back to mbl in 2 years if i stay consistent. im gonna keep my hair in a protective style and smother hair grease on my ends to preserve and nourish them!

In box braids I like to not split in to sections when beginning a braid. I like using the two synthetic pieces and my natural hair as the third (middle) to braid. that way I don’t have much detangling to do after a take down. I like to go back after a month and take my hair out one by one and cut off anything that is supposed to be there like you mentioned, fairy knots. Spilt ends also then I rebrand each strand while adding liquid oil and some smell good. The next go round of braids I notice a huge difference in my hair. Less build up and fizz and breakage. I still follow my loc method in braids too. This helped my hair grow out longer than I have ever seen in my lifetime.

Amen! Not to mention all the time you save on detangling and amount of product you keep. People don't understand why their detanlging sessions are so brutal and time consuming meanwhile they haven't trimmed in a year. Never gonna make that mistake again! Split ends also messe with your definition and moisture retention.

@kenesa 4 года назад

Check these RU-vidrs/stories too; these are the people that do not put scissors to their hair or they stopped because they no longer need to i.e. indigenous strandz hasn't trimmed in about 7 years or so. List of non-trimmers: Indigenous strandz 22 century natural woman Basara arabs (Chad Africa) Mbalantu (Namibia Africa) Yao women (China) Myself included unless I find a knot that I can't get out (rare); there may be more but I can only think of these right now.
