NATURAL HAIR 101 (What You Need To Know) // Natural Hair Help | EP. 1 

What term/ meaning didn't you know about until this video?!!👀

Love that red color on your lip

Big Chop squad where you at??? Woot woot!

Honestly I don't know how Isi hasn't gone viral yet like seriously I love her 😭

When hair dressers claim they're gonna "dust" your hair but you end up with a "big chop" 😂

I actually love and appreciate the thought of this series... it's so unique in the fact that I don't think anyone else has done or thought of it... not only that, it's education, just all the way around LIT !!!!!!!!!!!

Edges laid and slayed

Such a great idea for a video! I remember when I first went natural, I was so confused with the terms while trying to find the right regimen and products! Great video!

yes to the toned armss 😍!

I recently did the big chop and I have 4c hair, it's so refreshing seeing someone with 4 texture giving tips on how to flourish!! Thanks so much!!!!! 😩🙌🏾✨

This is, quite literally, the best natural hair video I’ve stumbled across in my four years on RU-vid. She is the best.

I have learned so much from your videos than I've ever learned within my four years of being natural. Thank you for being a source of inspiration and knowledge!

How she said "right back thurr" when she was talking about the kitchen.

Lots of useful information for the newbies. I've always been natural, but many of these terms became popular with the rise of the RU-vid natural hair community. I was overwhelmed at first and know I would have benefited greatly with all of this info in one place. Great job 👍🏾

I've been natural almost my whole life. I had it for 18 years, October 2011 i had my first relaxer just because i u wanted to know what it felt like. 😂😂 After 3 years i started transitioning just becauae i rathered my natural hair. I big chopped in January 2015. My hair grew without me taking proper care if it. October 2018 i did a tapered cut on my hair and now May 2020 almost 2 years later my hair is at the lingeat that i have ever seen it. I started following this channel early last year and i have seen a difference in my hair using most of your tips. This video was very informative 👍

Your videos are so detailed and understandable . THANK YOU FOR THE LESSONS. TEACH SISTER TEACH!

I realize that this is an older video, but I still want to comment and say thank you. This video is a lifesaver. I am becoming more knowledgable of black hair maintenance for my daughter. I'm soon going to be the mother of a mixed baby girl, and these videos have helped me better understand, and become more aware of the community. I love your videos and will be referring back to many of them in about 2 months. 😍😍

I’m not black but I have been binge watching these videos out of pure fascination and curiosity. I find natural hair beautiful and unique so it’s amazing to see how people of color take care of it

Yessssss melanin queen😍😍😍 thank you for thus

Thank you so much for posting this!! I have chemically damage hair and don't know anything about hair. I am mixed so its hard to depend on my mom who doesn't have my hair type , but after this video I learnt a lot about my natural hair. Thank you again !!

Thank👏🏾 you👏🏾 for clarifying that a "Protective style" means protecting your ends cause so many other youtubers with curly hair think that protective styling is a braid or twist out and it's isn't😫

this was honestly the most beneficial video I’ve ever seen in my life 😂 I just big chopped 12 days ago and this was so helpful!

Queen I'm a 33 year old man transitioning his flat top into better cared for long natural hair. Growing my hair out and trying my best to keep up with the Goddesses in embracing growing and maintaining my crown. Brand new world for me and this vid is vital. Very informative, very well done, cant wait to explore the rest of your catalog. New subscriber. Peace and love...✌✊🙌🙌🙌

Thank you for this video. Like I had no idea what a twa was!

natural hair: hair whose texture hasn’t been altered by chemical straighteners, including relaxers and texturises. transitioning: process of growing out your natural texture before cutting off the processed or damaged ends. Big Chop: process of cutting off the relaxed or permed ends of one’s hair when she is transitioning from chemically processed hair to natural hair. relaxed hair: a hair relaxer is a lotion or cream that makes the hair easier to straighten and manage. it reduces the curl by breaking down the hair strand and chemically altering the texture. hair porosity: is your hair’s ability to absorb moisture and is broken down into three categories: low, normal and high. low porosity: cuticles are a little tight and pretty resistant to receiving water and moisture normal porosity: holds moisture and shine for an extended period of time. high porosity: hair absorbs product quickly but loses the moisture just as fast. hair density: how thin or thick your hair is collectively. ( thin, medium and thick) hair width: how thick or thin a single hair strand is. ( coarse, medium, fine) slip: the term most naturals use when they are discussing products that help detangle their hair (mostly conditioners); if a product has good detangling properties meaning the consistency of the product helps to loosen tangles along hair strands, then you will hear someone say, “this product has good slip” wash n go: when you wear your hair in its natural curl pattern, without manipulating the style with tools, braids or stretching. Pre Poo: treatment done BEFORE shampooing your hair to help aid against a shampoos tendency to strip hair off its natural oils and moisture. sulfate free shampoo: mild detergents that don’t completely wash away your hair’s moisture. cowash: “short for conditioner only washing”; it means skipping shampoo and relying solely on conditioner. deep conditioning: a hair care practice that can restore and maintain the strength of the hair strand to it can better withstand day-to-day stressors without sustaining damage. protein treatment: boost the hair with variety of nutrients and proteins to help reconstruct and strengthen hair strands; having a protein-packed strands is a good way to maintain your overall hair health. braidout: a way of stretching out your natural hair by braiding it and after the style sets (dries), taking it down. protective style: a style that tucks the end of your hair away from being exposed to damaging agents such as heat, and constant manipulation. curly hair/wash day: the routine you create to manage and maintain your hair before, during and after cleansing your hair. hair regimen: what you do to maintain healthy natural/curly haie. hair types: consist of 4 different hair types/textures TYPE 1: straight hair TYPE 2: wavy hair TYPE 3: curly hair TYPE 4: coily/kinky hair

I missed notification :( . But i love this idea! And i see your glow hunny♥️

Love the series

Yeah, I just wanna say I appreciate you doing this series because I’m 36 years old and my hair has never done what I wanted to do and hopefully with doing a more natural hair care thing my hair will actually do what I wanted to do as opposed to using all these big chemical products, they just don’t do shit for my hair and leave it dry as fuck

Very helpful, thank you! :)

This was so informative.! ❤️😈🙌🏽

I've just started the long road of transitioning and I'm looking forward to this series!!! Any tips regarding transitioning will be helpful
