My Hair STILL Grew with GREASE and HEAT! Hair & Chat 

Lazy naturals in the house!🙋🏿‍♀️🙋🏿‍♀️🙋🏿‍♀️

I'm not giving up on grease. My hair is down my back because of it!

Woman, stop stressing over gray hair. You will be 90 years old, still on RU-vid with a head full of beautiful silver hair, looking like you're 40 asking the same questions! My gray is primarily at my temples and if I part it down the middle, I have a line of gray that goes "across" my hair from ear to ear. So it looks like I'm wearing a gray headband! YIKES! I'm 68 now and back in the day, I would stress about the same thing you're talking about now. Then one day I met a beautiful chocolate Sistah who was 76 years old sporting a head full of hair like yours and it was pure silver! She was "Absolutely Gorgeous", and YOU are too! Think about how much upkeep you’re going to have to do to keep that silver from growing back in. Don’t do it Sistah. You will age gracefully and beautifully. Have a BLESSED day! P.S. can you add the link for the hair elastics and I subscribed to your family channel!

When I was growing up my foster mom use to wash,straighten and grease me and my sister's hair every two weeks and it grew down our backs...I grew up and my hair journey was atrocious to say the least...I recently went back to what my foster mom did and it is working for me..so I hope my testimony helps

If being a “lazy natural” gets me beautiful hair like yours, I’m down! Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s working for sure.

When I was in college my hair was healthiest & thickest when I used grease, beeswax & Shea butter & straightened my hair almost every day. I used olive oil as a heat protectant 😅 & my hair loved it! I jumped on every new product & my hair broke & edges struggled since 🥴 I’m going back to basics

Chile, grease is my secret elixer. Our ancestors used it forever. My go to greases are: Nu Gro (Black owned, Louisiana), Blue Magic, and Softee. Love my Sweet Almond Oil, Olive Oil, and Black Castro Oil with cooked Aloe Vera and Fenugreek from my yard. God, bless!!!

I do the same. My hair grows better stretched. I can’t wear my hair out or it will get dry as hell. And tangled.

Don't worry about the gray, I was born with. I learned to embrace my gray hair at a very young age.

You and your hair are beautiful😍. I've learned that my hair has less breakage and thrives better when it's stretched vs curly. I use that hair grease and my hair loves it

My hair strives on heat. I don't care what the rules are. I have dreads and use warm water to shampoo (borderline hot) and a hair blowdryer all the time. Thats what my hair loves. And when I don't use heat it breaks. Because my hair has low porosity so it needs the heat for the folicles to open and allow the water to get in. Listen to your hair. Not the natural hair cult... i mean community.

Grease & water is what you need on me 💯 My hair is so moisturized now more than ever since I switched back! Especially the blue one lol I love it

Another thing is it was KNOTTING like crazy & I wld just rip them off. Not gently . Ripping. 😂😂 My 2020 is to take better care of me internally

My wife uses henna! She loves that stuff! Her greys are a vibrant red like a fox color. Very pretty actually.

Girrrrlll yes I use blue magic hair grease too, been using it since I was a child lol...and I use oil also... your hair is full, long and thick... my hair long and natural as well and I LOVE IT...tfs 💖💖💖

Grow hair long . Growing back to grease. Eating better and working out more . Just order a waist trainer and planning on getting a fitness watch or Apple Watch

Dem "natural hair gurus" always wanna talk shit about how grease isn't good for our hair well I hate to break it to yuh honey it works and it always will

I detangle yhe same way just smaller twists and I run the flat Iron across it once. No heat damage. I have to keep my hair stretched or the single strand knots get crazy

Grease+water bottle+ leave in condition is all I use

Nice Video. I usually use the Blue Magic Indian Hemp. That’s great that you’re helping others grow. I’m from the Virgin Islands and recently decided to share my hair journey on RU-vid as well.

Omg! You’re hair is absolutely beautiful !🥰

I like how you do your hair. This process makes total sense to me as I can definitely see myself do this to my own hair

I made a crochet hair wig! I keep my hair braided underneath. It’s amazing the growth I’m getting. I went back to grease! I couldn’t do just oils anymore and I instantly saw a difference in my hair.

Your hair is so beautiful and so are you!!

Girl I've been greasing my scalp my whole life and my hair has rewarded me kindly for it. Keep up the good work with taking care of your hair. It looks so thick and healthy so do what works for you!

Your hair looks great. You are correct....do what works for you.

I found out the hard way, my hair hates to be bothered on a regular basis, I keep it simple and my hair is just growing very well without all that extra stuff. Your hair is EVERYTHANG. I love me some blue magic too.

Love your beautiful hair &Yes” I too use grease” SINCE A little girl my hair loves it

Your hair is gorgeous. For the new year, I want to do a better job with meal planning and journal more. I also want to stop procrastinating so much! 😩😂

Recently went back to hair grease. Sulphur 8 on my scalp twice a week, Kuza Castor Oil lotion to moisturize while my hair is still damp and Kuza Indian hemp on top of that to seal the moisture in. It's been about a month since I started this regimen, twice a week. Prior to that my hair was sooo dry and brittle and would tangle at the slightest bit of manipulation. I was using the new age natural hair advice and it totally ruined my hair. I am Caribbean, my mother is East Indian and Spanish. My father is afro Caribbean. My hair was down to about 2 inches off my waist as a child. I grew up and started following along what the new naturals in the US were touting and lost so much length and body over the years. Seemed like the only time my hair would flourish was during pregnancy. I switched back to grease, low manipulation styles and am now ADAMANT about tying my hair up to sleep. Now my hair is so much thicker, at the roots especially. I haven't noticed much change in the length but the HEALTH is so noticeable. I finally have SHRINKAGE and that's something I haven't had since I was a kid!

Thanks for your recommendations. 🎄🎄💜

New to your channeI.... I truly enjoyed this video, your light hearted personality, candor and the fact you don't take you or your hair too seriously. And not only that, you make me smile! Your hair is too beautiful!!! In terms of the grey, I would color it...I think it does age you prematurely, as you have a very youthful face. There will be plenty enough time to let your grey shine through but either way, your rock! By the way, I use the non-permanent color by One N Only with Argan Oil sold at Sally's Beauty and it works great on my natural hair.

You and your hair are ABSOLUTELY beautiful. Honestly I was watching this video and saying to myself that I'm aspiring to have hair that is as healthy and lush as yours. I didn't notice the gray until you mentioned it. Instead of feeling like your gray hair makes you look "old"(which you don't), try flipping your perspective. You've earned every one of those gray hairs because you've been blessed to live the life that you have. If living and enjoying life comes with a few(or a lot) of gray hairs, then that is totally ok!

Here,here going in to 2020 with positivity. And for filling goals.😊❤

Your hair is beautiful love it💕

Aww sis, the hairstyle at the end is so cute.. I love it. GOD loves you.

Beautiful hair..wonder why I always thought relaxed hair was better when I was a child

I recently cut about 5 inches off and it is so much easier to maintain my hair. I am looking forward to growing it next year via braids

Hey sis, I love your video because you are real and I strongly believe it's your honesty that will help the black natural community more because we all get tired. From watching your video I have leant something new, you are doing very well keep it up and God bless you ❤️❤️❤️

You have beautiful hair it’s flourishing

We all have everyday shedding...its natural and you are beautiful.

grey is the new new! it looks lovely. my grey pattern is the same but when it is out it looks like a golden halo. thanks for the video. you are very sweet.

Your hair is giving me so much life! It is so beautiful! I recently started back blow drying my hair (with heat protectant) and I actually have less breakage than when I air dry it. Go figure. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Leave the gray!!! I love it. I was one to gray early, like 13yrs old I love it. I'm with you on the weight loss...I fluctuate often..not good. I'm asking Jesus to help me!!!❤❤❤. I love your hair!!

❤️❤️❤️ keep the grey it looks nice

Beautiful bun and beautiful hair. Great technique.

I’m also on a hair growth journey for the new year! Glad you said lazy naturals cause that me lol!

Beautiful hair!!

Grey is so graceful. You good girl

It looks good. Your hair is beautiful.

I think your hair is very pretty! Greetz from The Netherlands 😉👋🏾

I’m on a growth journey as well

Your doing something right !!!!! Your hair is long and thick !!! I'm love it ☺ going sis👍👍👍And by the way I have that same comb lol😄😄 and I love it😋😋😋😋

I would love to go back natural but I’ve been relaxing my hair for many many years and my hair is past my shoulders & healthy heat is only used when I get it done 2/3 weeks. Ur hair is beautiful natural

Your length is goalssss

The music was SOOOO relaxing 🎶🎵🎶🎵

Im a natural silver. I plan nevertheless to dye my hair. I get the best compliments. And my hair stays healthy

So interesting that later on in the video you mentioned the work you've been doing on your nails. Early on , I said to myself, "She's got some nice fingernails, there!" Beautiful hair, too!

The gray hair looks great

My natural hair loves hair grease and water.

You're my natural hair role model lol and yess I love grease!

Beautiful as always

I am definitely a lazy natural...smh I have downright resorted to wigs and can't remember the last time i've worn my natural hair because I'm just too lazy to do it....lol

Love ur hair I have went to bed with my hair all over my head NOT the thing for me to do 😩☹️ oooohhhhh weeeeee do I suffer 😳 lol

Your hair is beautiful! Try not to color your greys. Almost every video I've seen of a natural who has colored her hair has regretted it as some point, even if their hair wasn't super damaged. The thickness, luster, and curl pattern are always compromised at some point. Besides that you have to keep the color up. Henna may be an option, but try to embrace your greys. I'm dealing with this very thing now. My greys are very concentrated in the front. I dyed them with henna for a while but I noticed that my hairline was beginning to thin so I stopped and decided to just embrace the grey. I think my hair is a little finer than yours so henna may not affect your hair but please be careful. Watch Mini Marley's take on coloring her hair. She just did a second big chop!

Omgggg I NEVER thought of blow drying the kinks out 😭😭. Definitely taking this tip. Because sometimes it be like that when you just be to tired or lazy to do anything 🤣. But I'm definitely doing better this year

looooooooove this

Beautiful hair and thank the Lord for me to live to.see.gray.hair.thumbsup

My mom blowout her with grease all of the time and it’s still growing. And I use the same grease that you used. I have seen you grow your daughter’s beautiful hair. I mean you really take care of their hair. You’re a wonderful mother. So don’t feel bad about being to tired to do your hair.

It looks good andv it's not aging your looks. It's just not easy excepting things that we are not use to about ourselves. I am 38, and have more noticeable greys my attitude about it is oh well.

SIS I DO IT ALL THE TIME I GET TO THAT POINT WHERE I JUST NEED TO HURRY UP AND GET IN THE BED SO MY HAIR DOESN'T GET WRAPPED UP R PUT UP SO TRUST ME WE ALL HAVE THOSE DAYS....SO U GET A PASS FROM ME😘

Hi Val, I don't want to be a slave to my hair, yes we all have gone to bed without messing with it..I'm a grey sister mostly in the front- I've seen a few natural uses the henna, I've always used the temporary color that last 6-8 weeks..my resolution is all the same you mentioned..I need to be more active..Hope you and the family are all well..

I don't think that hair grease is bad for our hair. It's been made out to be an evil. Our Mums used it all the time on our heads, and our hair was healthy and strong and it grew. Your hair is beautiful so just give it the stuff that it loves.

Lol, I slept without a cap for the first time and I won't again. Re twisting every night I don't do. Deep conditioning every wash day I havnt done in a while. 😢 yr hair is beautiful

I am gonna get me some of that grease ASAP

You better leave that Gray hair alone. It's beautiful. I love that yours grows in a pattern like that. And the fact that your young makes it look striking and mysterious.

Hello Val even untamed your hair is Gorgeous. Thank you for showing your routine when your hair needs some TLC, very helpful do's & dont's and corrective tips to achieve the same Excellent Beautiful results as you did. Always enjoy and appreciate your videos. Hope you and your family have a Happy and Blessed Holiday season❣

the struggle is real,omg I better no wash,and not put grease on my hair,i be mad at myself, because it's a job,i love my blue magic natural 5 yrs,my hair is the same as your,super thick and coarse.

Love your hair beautiful ❤️💯💯

I use grease as well. My grey is growing the same way. I love it though

Your hair is so beautiful

I'm using Palmers hair dress scalp and conditioner grease it has vitamin E and Jamacian black castor oil in it

You are too cute and u have a lovely head of hair and I feel ya with the maintenance!!

I’m going to do the same thing with my hair. I am 50 and my gray hair is taking over. I am definitely going to figure out if I am going to dye it. I find it hard to manage products. I started going gray at 16.😅

Lmfaooo Girl your card will definitely be revoked with these crazy naturals. Yes hair grease is my staple. I'm going thru some breakage but it's ok. I did blow dry my "plaits" a few times 2 stretch it" and I think it damaged it after I thought about it! I've cut prob 3.5 inches but it's still long I need it to be healthy from breakage

Thank you for the castor oil and blue magic tip. My daughter has eczema and her scalp has done well.

I buy ponytail holders and put my hair in about 4 messy ponytails😀

Hey girl! It's your hair, do you!!

You know that frozen look You give on here reminds Me of when my daughter told my little nice " Glossie When you with me you'd better not snatch away near the streets, and Glossie gave that same exact smirk, well that's the day Glossie got wiped up and down my hall way by her Mother. Just thinking back. Your hair is nice and thick And all I used was grease and water on my daughters waist length.

I've been gray since age 16. It's taking over since I turned 50. I think about going completely gray. I always dye it. I need to really focus on why I do that.

You’re the cutest thing! My hair is the same length and density as yours but it’s color treated at the ends. I keep it blow dried primarily just to avoid tangles. I blow it only once a month in the meantime before my next washday and blow dry, every week I moisturize with blue magic and Jamaican mango and lime gro spray (mixed together) to moisturize and seal together without reverting my hair too much. I wear it in twists and oil my scalp daily with a light oil by hair growth co. (It’s $10 😎) sealing with the blue magic mixture, keeping my roots straight with and strands together in twists is great for my hair ♥️

Love your hair!! I use blue magic grease for my natural hair and I love it. I do not blow dry my hair though. I want to so badly, but scared of breakage. BTW, what is the name of the first song that you are playing in the background?

I have the grey streak on the side, wider than yours, I’m okay with it. I’ve had it since I was in high school, it’s just gotten wider. My family go grey early. If I don’t want to look at it I just part my hair on the other side and slick it in a low ponytail.

I love my Indian hemp grease

wow your hair is adorable and long

Oh, and backing up from foods after a certain hour...remember Vanity with Prince back in the 1980s? I met her after she got into the church and was transformed by GOD for real. She was in just a good of shape in later years. She told me how they did things which damaged her organs and she went to dialysis on a regular basis. How she kept herself small was that she exercised and stopped eating after 6PM. That's what worked good for her!

Chile , am a new subbie ok, l love your hair and your video🤗

That’s A LOT of hair Val! That lil “Phew” while greasing your scalp was SO familiar. Arms just be Tired!🤦🏾‍♀️ Your #mane is GOALS! As far as your “process?” If #heat was an ill factor in your hairs health; it definitely wouldn’t be thriving the way that it looks like it is. It actually #looks healthy! My question though, is what is your #trimming schedule! Are you going to be detailing the implementation of, or implementING a “trimming” routine? It’s as vitally important, if not more so, to keep up with #trims as it is to have a healthy overall routine; I think!!🤷🏾‍♀️ But I’m interested. How often and exactly how do you trim your ends?❤️

I don’t remember the last time I blow dried my hair💀💀💀

U making deep 40s look gorgeous ❤️
