She said she was 19 years old! 

My goodness, her modeling shots are STUNNING (and she's still beautiful today)!

It’s the women supporting women for me. I love how positive you are and how much support you show for your clients/friends. ❤️

SHE’S STUNNING! Her modeling pictures are breathtaking and she’s as beautiful today.

Of all the people doing hair on YT and Instagram, Deeper Than Hair TV is my favorite. The quality of work and positivity does it for me. 🙌🏽

chile let me say this im going thru some things with my relationship, and ive been trying to break free from the toxicity. and i live for you hair videos bc they satisfy me when im down but honeyyyyy the quote at the beginning of this video spoke VOLUMES to me. may God continue to bless you in every aspect of your life! thank you for that sunshine you just brought to my cloudy days ive been having

Imagine seeing yourself on the color of your favorite hairdye, that's genuinely a flex

Finally, A real model. Not an Instagram “model”, and not a “self-proclaimed” model. This woman is the face (and hair) of worldwide-manufactured products !!!!! I love it!!!

Now every time I see her on the box, I’m going to say “Hey Alina, girl!!” 😂😂

I relaxed my over processed hair (bleached and heat damaged) at home when I was 14 and it literally came out in clumps. Now I have permanent hair loss, which is no joke. Always go to the salon people, always.

Her cut was to perfection. Her hair turned out ready for her next photo shoot. You did an awesome job 👏👏👏

She is absolutely gorgeous! My Aunt is 57 and is seeing a guy who is 36! You can’t tell she is 57. They look the same age! But she too is gorgeous and my inspiration!

She really is beautiful.It's incredible that she was 37 and they were convinced she was 19.That's confidence on another level.Love the outcome, you're an amazing hair stylist.

She is freaking gorgeous oh my gosh

I Love when your cutting and you Spin the Scissors around. That's Experience Profected. I have been doing hair for 20+ years without EVER going to school for it and that's the stuff that I just KNOW How to do because of the Hands That God Has Blessed US with 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 but You keep up the Amazing work Hunny.

I love that! "Not about moving fast but moving correctly!"... And as always you never disappoint!

She even looks more beautiful older, Lord I can't! Cheers to natural beauty

Why did I cry though? This is so beautiful. She still looks so wonderful and healthy.

That Bob though… 😍😍😍 She is the personification of “Black don’t crack”! She’s is absolutely gorgeous!

I just want to say your channel is a gift. About a year and a half ago, I started having significant breakage on my crown, and I couldn’t figure out why. I stumbled across your channel, and the knowledge you give about hair, as well as the video you did about how to trim your hair at home. I got a different bonnet, kept my ends trimmed and did a moisture regiment, as well as bought the Jamaican castor oil from your site. I also went natural, no relaxers. I went to trim my ends last night, and I was trying to locate the areas that my hair was breaking, and I was shocked to see the hair grew back in, significantly. Around 5 inches of growth, from the last year. Thank you so much for your insight and please keep these videos coming. You’re doing some good work here ❤️

Mid 50's where??? No wonder she's been going STRONG 💪🏾 in the professional modeling industry for so long! Her look is absolutely incredible! Definitely understandable that the modeling agency couldn't tell she wasn't 18! Black don't crack and she does look great in a short bob! Love your channel and yes I remember Taylor! Much love and continue on strong!💕💕💕

Her bob is everything!! I love how she always shares/puts us on to the careers and links the products of her clients. So sweet❤️❤️

Your opening quote there… “it’s not about moving fast, it’s about moving correctly”… Oh did I NEED to hear this today… THANK YOU 🙏🏼 One month today, will be my 40th birthday. I have been feeling incredibly depressed about this. My mental health has declined because I beat myself up that I did not spend my 30s getting to where I know I want to be. As a result, I am waaaaay behind. And I have fallen into a funk in life, and with my mental health, because of this. I have been struggling to see a way out of how I feel, but I am beginning to realise that if I don’t change, then nothing will actually change in my life. And it actually is okay if those steps are small ones.. main thing is that they are steps forward, even if they are a slow crawl right now. And, as always…. Beautiful hair 💕

You did a great job, Alina's hair looked stunning.

Such a beautiful woman, she just radiates warmth and light! I can see how she convinced them she was 19 🤣 that is just too funny and you know she knew she was perfect for the pic and just ignored what they were looking for 💕 i love that, i look forward to seeing more of her work!!

She is absolutely gorgeous 55 years ain’t got nothing on her.

She was 37 on that box?? I thought she was in her 30s now. She is blessed💛 Yes I remember Taylor. Now I think about it she looks like her mother.

She’s going to have everyone on their next Target visit to the hair aisle saying “Hey Alina girl!”👋🏽

She does have a beautiful shine. I always think about going back to a relaxer when I wash my hair-because its so tedious, BUT then I see the curls pop and I'm like nahhh. I love my natural hair!!😀💞

I just especially love the level of professionalism you exhibit with each client, whether they are famous or not, and this is a great attribute to have. Awesome work! 💜✨

Yeah Alina!! Black don’t crack! You go girl!! You’re beautiful and you make us proud!!🥰🥰🙋🏽

it’s so interesting how whenever she smiled she looked a couple years younger. that’s adorable lol, and i love the bob!

I love the way you treat us, the viewers, as friends! I really wish that one day I meet you in person so I can give you a hug!

I love when you talk, so insightful and it shows how passionate your are. As for someone who inspires to be model this was inspiring, thank you

You’re literally offering much than hair content. I like the advice you provide whilst sharing great tips.I always feel relaxed when I watch your videos.

She’s stunning! My gosh that black and white photo was beautiful.

I am relaxed and realized there are a lot of products that put protein in them that were drying my hair out. So now that I have made sure to pick products that are strictly moisturizing…my hair is thriving and the the shedding has significantly diminished.

That spin she did at the end…definitely a model!

I have seen her a few times in my adolescent yrs. She still looks great!!

Wow! I don’t even buy hair dye like that but I feel like everytime walk past the section, her face is the only one I see. Even when I was a child and I’m 20 now. She is stunning! I really love the bob on her. Shows off her beautiful face structure.

I love that you use products that we can purchase without a license. And you show that they actually WORK when applied correctly !

Her story is a beautiful reminder that you can achieve your dreams REGARDLESS of age! You have time and it’s now! Beautiful work on beautiful people by beautiful ppl ♥️

She is a true icon 🤩 I hope she is proud to be on the box for so many year, Also I really appreciate this episode on relaxed hair 🙌

She's gorgeous! Both on the box and now. Looks like a natural beauty.

She looks amazing! Gorgeous!

I have been natural for years and have been using Textures & Tones' 1N colour because my greys looks like Alina's. I love this product because I colour my hair myself, it doesn't leave dye on your skin, has great coverage and is ammonia free. Alina looks lovely, you done a excellent job always💛💛💛

My hair was relaxed for years until I had the big chop, so I’m glad to see you showcase some TLC for relaxed hair. I’m 70 - 80% grey and you ain’t never lied about the struggle to color grey hair. It will totally reject a demi or semi-permanent color if it is not in the mood lol. Like forget what ya heard.😜 Stunning results per usual my lovey!🌟💜

Her hair, skin, and smile is so beautiful! Even though she looked beautiful before you started, she looked even better after your magic hands did what needed to be done! I wish you lived in jersey! Keep up the amazing work. You were born for this!

I was at the store a few weeks ago & got carded when buying wine. I laughed bc I don't know the last time I was asked to see my ID. He said I looked around 20, 😂. I'm 40 and can usually pass for early 30's, but 20!? C'mon now, that poor boy probably needed to get his eyes checked lol. Most people are shocked when I say I have teenagers bc they say I don't look old enough. People ask how I stay looking so young, & I say it's about staying young at heart, having fun, & laughing. If you have joy in your soul, then it's gonna shine out. Alina has such a beautiful glow and energy about her! I absolutely loved that cut on her! Another wonderful video, thank you for sharing her story and such great hair tips! 💜

So many gems in one video!! Beautiful hair and model, author, an AMAZING stylist and educator… I’m here for it all!! Gorgeous ladies, thank you!!

That's so awesome. She's on the color box. I love that. Made me smile 😁.

I hope she knows how beautiful she is… I literally went around the office showing people her asking how old do they think she is… most people said 37-41 was the oldest I heard! She is absolutely stunning ! Her daughter Taylor is such a doll… Her smile is so magnetic! Beauty is definitely there trademark™️ 💅🏽🥰

Haven't even seen the video yet but thumbs up! Already know this is gonna be another positive one (btw I always screenshot your quotes 🤭) Much love from Holland to all beautiful people of this community ❤

We need hairdressers like you in the UK cos honestly my hair needs youuuuuu

Her hair is pretty...you consistently do a good job!!

Finally somebody's hair that is relaxed. I love to see these kinds of videos because my hair is relaxed, grey hair is coming in, want it cut, I want to go natural, but not a really...... so I'm glad that I seen this video. I will continue to keep my hair relaxed and all I need is to get it cut in a bob. Love it!!!

Your friend's story was amazing. I'm looking forward to her upcoming RU-vid channel. I hope you collab with her. And of course her hair looked gorgeous. The cut, the layers and styling. Well Done, as always ❤

she is so breathtakingly beautiful. her smile and her eyes just light up a room, i know it.

Stunning and still as gorgeous!!! Timeless and ageless beauty!!! 🌟🌟❤️😍

That 90's picture was EVERYTHING!! She better get those residuals! She's a doll.

You can definitely tell the difference when you blow out a natural vs chemically relaxed strands. Its interesting.

Wow just to top off the beauty and Grace she’s also written an encouraging book for young black girls ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭 I love her !!

You really understand women and beauty!

Beautiful

I’ve bought that color before with her on the box😃 That’s cool to see the real person in your chair. She’s still beautiful 😊

Omgosh that sure is her. I've seen her model on some other things too. Wow pretty cool. I would love to see what her channel will be about. It's encouraging to hear when she started modeling. I've tried and want to call it quits becuz of my age and location (state) I live, but hearing her story got me saying "hmmm🤔". Kee you never disappoint. Her hair looks beautiful. 😍😍😍

Such a natural beauty - can see how she's a model! She has beautiful hair, the style you did looks fantastic!

Grey hair has a mind of it's own. I just gave up and said let it go. The grey hair won. 😅😇💃💯❤🙏. She is beautiful 😍❤.

Alina's hair is so healthy and beautiful.

The way you handle the scalp and hair of the clients. 👌🏾 ✨ I would grow out my hair and go to a salon if there was a guarantee they’d be like you. I’ve been hurt too many times though; I don’t think I’ll ever set foot in a salon again. I hope future stylists are learning from watching your vids.

Sitting at home in Gloucestershire mesmerised by your work, fabulous . How beautiful is this lady too ! Xx

She is absolutely stunning and looks like a teenager.

Beautiful! I love that she found her calling at 37 an d they thought she was 19! ❤❤ Sis is rockin it!!

While she acts up in this chair 😂🥰🥰🥰 beautiful client, beautiful hair cut!

Stunning hair. She wears it well 💕

I’m starting to get some gray and mine comes in like white-out white. Drives me absolutely crazy. And they literally pop up everywhere! It’s the most insane thing. Also- that bob is *chef’s kiss*!

I love how you work and educate us at the same time! I love, love, love your videos. Beautiful lady with a beautiful bob.

"Bouncin' and behavin' on God." 😇 Love that! Great video. 🙏🏾🤗

YES!!!!! I love Textures & Tones and recognized the box as soon as it came on the screen. 😃 It’s awesome to see the real person. She’s beautiful! 🥰

She is beautiful! And a real model!

Yes, that grey comes in super fast. I just leave it alone and I have grey streaks throughout my hair. Your client's hair came out so nice, I'm relaxed too and maintenence is imperative for us relaxed ladies.

‘While she’s acting up in this chair’ Aha! So beautiful 😍

When I was growing up the rules was you don't play in your hair; nobody else play or put their hands in your hair. Lol. Old school. She looks beautiful

I can tell you love what you do by the way you not only talk about the process, you talk about the why of everything. I learn so much from your videos! Not to mention you are so charismatic and magnetic! I have a grin on my face every time I watch your videos :))Seeing these hair treatments is so satisfying 🤤 you really said it best, you have a gift. And that’s the absolute truth :)) sending love from the midwest ♥️

"now while she acts up on this chair-" got me rolling 😭😭😭 beautiful work suited for a beautiful client!!!

This turned out absolutely beautiful. As a relaxed girl myself, it warms my heart to see healthy relaxed hair celebrated...it is so far few and between these days..Thank you queen 👸🏾 💖

why do all of your videos begin with straight facts? Your channel is vibes.

SHE SAID SHE WAS NINETEEN!! I am screaming! Y'all she walked in there and told them to their face she was nineteen years of age.

Wow! She looked beautiful before but after? Oh my goodness! Stunning. In reference to both of your books, please remember the blind/deaf children. Braille, audio and a DVD reading with sign language means all children are included.

Thank you soo much Kee!! I absolutely love my flat iron! I thought my hair would never get bone straight again but Ms Purple 22Titania said "lay down and shine"

She is gorgeous and that hairstyle looks beautiful on her. God bless her and the girl who is doing her hair.

So cool! I used Cherrywood color for years. Cool to know that's her on the front! Nice job, as always. 👍🏾

She is beautiful ✨💖✨

I love the quote you used in this video: "it's not about moving fast, but correctly." needed to hear this!

STUNNING! She's beautiful. PERIODT!

It’s not about moving fast. It’s about moving correctly. Yes 👏🏼 I needed to hear this. Also: I can drive up and get my hair done 👁👄👁? Your books open? Lol 😂 Edit: OKAY miss famous model! I love that!

Love this cut all the way around. That blended layered cut in the back is the bizzz ness! Such nice work on this cut. She's gorgeous!!

Imagine being this beautiful, those pictures you showed were breathtaking ❤

I must say it again, I am SO THANKFUL for your videos. I feel like if I saw you on the street it would be hard not to speak to you as if I knew for a long time. Thank you for taking your time and sharing your love and talent through these videos. May God pour upon continual and wonderful blessings!!

Her hair is just so gorgeous it makes me want to get a relaxer again. I'm not but it makes me want to.

Wow she’s gorgeous 😩
