My Natural Hair Regimen | How I Grow Long Type 4 Natural Hair 

wow thank you so much

Honestly sis!

Thank you! 😭❤️

I agree gorgeous luscious hair ❤️

Definitely hair goals

Facts

Genetics will just determine the growth rate

It determines more than growth rate. Also hair texture which can effect manageability.

@@ChesnaHoward yeah but what I mean is that your genetics won’t keep your hair from growing. It might take more time or effort but that’s all

Agreed!

For the longest time, my protein "deep conditioner" was a light protein conditioner. It's never failed me. I only started using a deep conditioner/mask for my protein because I wanted something more intense. I'm type 4 too. One size doesn't fit all. In fact, multiple sizes can fit one.

Kay Jay, good info, thanks for sharing!☺👍

Thank you I’m about to try this!!

I definitely think that depends on the person. I have type 3B and 3C hair and I pre-poo with oil but my hair is always too matted to detangle at that point unless I want to take a couple hours which I don’t. So I shampoo, and then use conditioner just to detangle, and then I still deep condition. And it’s done great for my hair. I find if I go straight from the shampoo to deep conditioner they nine times out of 10 don’t have enough slip for me to detangle.

I learnt this recently too. Making this switch was a game changer!

Oh yes!! That was an old fav! I have to try it out agajn

AND it’s affordable and works FAST. It’s perfect for my wash hour (to wash and style-idk how people spend hours on this)

Yass my favorite 🥰🤎

My hair could be MATTED and it just melts the tangles awayyy!

Yeesss I use this before I wash my hair as a detangler

Oh thank you!

Say it again for the ones that will go out and buy all the same products a person with long hair uses thinking it will give them same results, leave your hair alone and it will grow.

I give up on it. I realized that genetically im fucked. I will just by the hair and install lol

Thanks for sharing!!

What’s wrong with twist outs or a wash n go 👀

@@Jess-ew3tm I’ve been trying to get them right for years and it just doesn’t work well in my hair.

@@Jess-ew3tm they require more manipulation to maintain for some people, so they're not worth it. For example for some people it's low manipulation because they can go for like 10 days. Me, I had to be washing and brushing and detangling every 2 days because the properties of my hair don't let these styles last (too fine), so I do other styles that work as low manipulation for me

Thanks for sharing this!!

which redken products do you like?

Wow thank you!!

Thank you, I will

Yes I agree! Thanks for watching !

Glad it was helpful!

The silk scrunchies are sold out, please help 😢

They will be back in stock next Friday

@@ShaniqueBuntyn Thank you! I bookmarked the site and set a reminder for myself. I currently use the non-metal scrunchies, but they aren’t silk/satin, so a bit of my hair does get stuck on it when I use them during wash day.

What’s mixed texture Afro hair?

Look into rainbow research on herb. They have henna you can use as a protein treatment and shampoo and conditioner with natural ingredients that strengthen and moisturize. They are also less than $8 for each product; you’ll break the bank trying to keep up with every trend and brand you try. Iherb has grapeseed oil for about $6 and also essential oils you can mix in if your scalp enjoys them. Just wash, condition, and style once a week or every two weeks, moisturizing(listening) to your hair as you go along. Protein(henna or other) once a month or every two months if it’s strong.

@@miscellaneouslife2778 O.M.G......thank you so much queen 👸🏾💖❤. Can I also mix the henna into a deep conditioner or mask every wash day? If so, which are the best deep conditioners to use? Do you also have any leave in conditioner recommendations that are good? Thanks again!

@@fayton30 Products: I recently tried the Miele rosemary and mint hair mask and I liked it with my oil treatment. They’re doing free shipping until Monday if you want to try it out, it doesn’t have the most oz for the price but the ingredients are relatively good. If you don’t want harsh chemicals(everything is a chemical some things are just healthier for you body than others) in your products id recommend making your own, but some people like the ease of it already being made at the store. Just look into the ingredients and see how much silicon, formaldehyde, pegs, ammonium, etc are in the products. I don’t really do leave-ins often enough to recommend products, but products with good ingredients are anything by the mane choice or melanin haircare(people don’t like the mint smell of the leave in but it didn’t irritate me). At the start of my natural hair journey(last March), I did the “water only method” and got full sebum coverage. I would put a Shea butter cream I made on the length of my hair just to help the sebum and then twist it up. That worked pretty well and my hair was longer and stronger. Henna: Neutral henna by rainbow research won’t give you the red-orange tint regular henna does so that may be best for you. I currently use MB herbals henna(red-orange tint) and they are on Amazon, the neutral henna by rr is good as a weekly mask. Regular henna can be pretty strong as a protein treatment if you use a large amount of the powder per solvent, but you can look up “henna gloss” on RU-vid and find recipes with a smaller amount that people use more often. Henna does best on clean hair and mixed with water(teas like black or chamomile too) after sitting for a couple hours in a container so the dye releases, but you can mix it with anything from yogurt to conditioner(just something creamy). You can’t mix henna with metal because it messes up the properties, and mixing with oil does the same(oil henna mix would be good if you use it more often than once a month because it won’t be as strong.) I deep condition or mask by getting my hair a little wet(doesn’t have to be hot water), then applying a mask or store bought conditioner and some oil on my scalp, and putting a plastic bag on my head for maybe twenty minutes(more if I forget). The heat from your scalp will turn the water into steam, and whatever is on your scalp(oil or scalp treatment) will soak in the follicles while everything on your hair will go into the cuticle if the molecules as small enough(people don’t use conditioner over deep conditioner bc they say the molecules of the former are too large to do anything). Overall I recommend doing what’s best for you in terms of products and product use, some people need more protein and others don’t and some don’t care about ingredients as much. I think my natural hair journey being more of a journey home(like finding that home) is why I go for a less manipulated routine, but some people decide to heat train, relax, braid and wig, wash and go every week, etc and that’s fine too because they decided it was best for them. I keep my hair in twists and wear a scarf(silk) out the house, washing every week or two weeks, but that isn’t for everyone either. When my hair gets to my goal length I’ll take the scarf off but I actually like how people treatment me when I wear it so we’ll see(everyone is really respectful and kind). If you ever have any questions feel free to message me on here or my Instagram is miscellaneous_life.

Oh thank you!

Thank you!

It’s likely you de tangling process. Thoroughly come through to the tots with the aloe plant in sections. Keep it braided during washing

hey ill definitely do a tutorial next time. I didn't realize I could do a bun. so I hope my video can help
