Kim I applaud you for how much you do as far as being a RU-vidr and having kids. Just wanted to say you are amazing cause you make it look easy and I know it's not. Keep up the good work 👌👍.
I've tried many of her hair methods and I have not been disappointed!! I stretch my hair with elastic band and it works perfectly.Thanks for the new tip on trimming natural hair 💕
Sometimes I would stretch my hair using the African Threading method. Sometimes I don't have a thread so I would use rubber bands(that has been soaked in oil so it does not pull my hair).
I had to do this recently because my twist outs were coming out terribly! I never wanted to wear my hair out. After trimming, it looks so much better! We naturals cannot be afraid of scissors ✂️
It is honestly so glorious seeing how far your hair has come. I have been following since the OG TWA days and now your hair is so full and long and strong. Beautiful what patience, good diet and consistent care can do.
This was well done but i Just cldnt help myself from realizing how you didn’t cut then in angles and not just pulling tge hair downwards because depending on the hai position on the head, there are ends that wasn’t even trimmed. But still a good job
You made this video very easy and simple, I dont have to stand in the bathroom a two hours plus taking care of my daughter. This is more than half the time. Wow amazing Job!!!!!!!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I will definitely have to try this as well as your “no heat 2020” challenge! It’s going to be hard lol but I’ll keep track of my growth along with you!
So I've come across this video because I've been wanting to trim my hair for the longest time and was considering going to a professional but I can't find anyone good in the area and looking on yelp overwhelmed me. Ngl I haven't washed my hair in weeks and I've gotten lazy/unmotivated to do my hair and I extremely dislike the condition it's in. It's in two-strand twists currently but I can see a lot of frizz and split ends. Definitely gonna try this method this weekend cuz ya girl needs some self-care. Thanks for the video
Thank you so much. I'm going to trim my hair like this instead of blow drying. I haven't put heat in my hair since November and I would like to keep it that way
This video is everything I didn’t know I needed in my life!!! I have been avoided heat and trying to grow my hair and this just got added to my arsenal. 🙏🏾
Thank you so much, I've saved your video. As a father, i don't know what I'm doing when taking care of my daughter hair but I'm trying and your video made trying a little easier with this guidance. I'll try it out this weekend
Thank you for doing a trimming video. My hair doesn't grow that fast, and it is probably due to the fact that I don't keep my edges trimmed as much. Most of the time when I do go to the professional, they tell me that I have to get it flat ironed before getting trimmed. Obviously there are other methods. Thanks
Been watching your vids for yrs and its soo awesome to see your hair super long and healthy. What a journey! I cut my hair off and did other things though i know that if i kept with the routine it'll be as long as yours now. I only keep up with a couple hair vixens and Ive learned (through yaw) that color is not that important if your hair just isnt healthy. Thank you for being consistent!
I have never commented on your posts but have been following you for years and loving you vegan meal preps( which helped me in what to eat after giving birth) and all your natural hair videos. My daughter’s hair replicates your strands and I am so glad you did this video because she turns 2 On Monday and I have noticed she needs a trim due to the knots that is now forming in her hair. I love watching your videos and thank you.
This video is right on time , I have braids in as my protective style right now and I’m not using heat (including blow dryer) so I can use this technique to clip my ends as well as for hairstyles I want to do on “blown out” hair . Trying not to use heat for a year too , so far so good 🤗
This might be a dumb question but where does one find this ( wool) thread here in the states. I've tried banding with scrunchies im not sure if my hair needed to be sectioned more or what but it didn't do too much lol.
Girl you read my mind!! I’m transitioning and I’m trying to not use heat on my hair, so I wanted to trim them without straightening my hair. And this help me a lot! Thank you 🙏🏾
Here because of the quarantine situation in NYC..and there is no such thing as a hair appt pretty much indefinitely. This is not super complicated. Thank you!
Great video! It looks very simple to do after watching your video. I was looking for something like this especially since we are all quarantine and no one can do it for me lol. Thank you so much 😊 and I hope you and your family are staying safe during this time.
Thanks for sharing the steps on how to give yourself a trim on natural hair. My hair is natural as well. And I dyed mine but I'm in need of a trim and hot oil treatment and deep conditioning treatment.
Try cutting at a 45 degree angle instead of straight across. Cutting straight across causing ends to be blunt which is more prone to breakage and splitting.
L Gallman why would a straight cut be more prone to breaking/splitting? Is it cause the ends will rub together more easily since they are the same length?
I found some straight wave formers on amazon. They work really well without having to use alot of stress on your hair. They are not on there anymore but you can get wave formers on Ebay or AliExpress and boil them in a pot of hot water to straighten them. I used 4 packages on my fine 4c medium density hair. If you have thick hair you will probably need 6-8 packages
Your hair is SO Beauty-FULL! I watch you alot and I too have a lot of sheinkage... and just the other day was searching for a good diy trim video and I am so glad YOU made one because you are consistent and thorough in your teaching and the results are 👍🏾. I even learned how to do my brows from one of your tutorial!! New to this natural journey ...just had my 1 year hairversary a week or so ago. Keep us informed and God bless you!!👍🏾💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This video is right on time. My hair needs to be trimmed badly. My only problem is I don't have enough hair ties to do this stretching method😣 *doinghairisnotmyministryatall*
Lol. 😅 Same. When taking out twists, the first half is done slow & gently, while there will definitely be some hair ripped out or broken off in the second half. I need to start altering which half I start first so I don't begin having a beauty and the beast head of hair.
i'm really glad you posted this. I am overdue for a trim and have had 2 hair appts cancelled...1 to family emergency and now coronavirus. will def be trying this
😀Woohoo! I am very appreciative of your very thorough tutorial. Great stretch method & hair trimming. I'm glad you told us that it was 24hrs later. My hair takes about this lond to completely dry. Especially in the middle.
I love this Method I refuse to use heat ever and wish I tried this before getting locs. O' well I've been a lazy 4C natural anyways (probably wouldn't have done it anyway).
Omgish I just did this video on my channel but I added the African threading before trimming. I wonder if I could have just done this. I always band like this. Thanks. I may try it this way next time. 👍🏽
This video is just in time! I desperately need a heat-free trim. By the way, love that you still rockin with the Aveda brush. I bought mine like 3 or 4 years ago because of you!
Hello. I want to say first thank you for sharing your beauty tips and routines it is really made a difference in my skin and my hair. I do have a question the middle of my head is always very dry, what can I do to help moisturize this area more?
Love this, just did a heatless hair trim video On my channel on my short 4c hair. Your hair is so beautiful, hope to get mine to this point too one day
This was really helpful and timely! I can’t go see my stylist with COVID-19 and i only let her use to heat on me so this will be the only way I can keep my hair strong until she’s allowed to open up again.
What about if your hair is uneven? I've always had issue with my crown, it's shorter with more breakage. And a few places on the side that is a little shorter
My Hairstylist blow dried my 4C hair for a trim. She happened to cut a lot off. 2 months later I straightened my hair and I’m shocked to see for short it is. From now on I only do trim on straightener hair. I have so much shrinkage even when blow dried.
