(4c, really kinky, dry, and lots of breakage) I make a hair spritz for itching and general moisturizing: 1 tsp ACV, 3 drops Tea tree oil, 1 tbsp olive oil and, 1 cup water, 1 tbsp jojoba oil (optional), you can feel it soothing your scalp. And scalp health seemed to be most important for me during the early stages. I started growing my hair during lock down, and that was all I used until it got thick. I was getting a lot of breakage, then I learned about conditioner and my journey officially began; I've been growing it out since. Your video was very informative, I never considered Rogaine for faded areas, I will "do the research".
Thank you for posting and thank you for the update!!! You have helped me with my decision to shave my head and start over as well. I have no scalp issues (thank God), I just want to start fresh as I feel my hair has thinned out tremendously from going to various stylist that over brushed my 4c hair. I typically wear sew-ins and every time I take it down, I noticed my hair getting thinner and thinner. I want to start fresh and go to a stylist who only specializes in natural hair.
You're welcome Queen! Starting over takes a lot of courage and you got that. Be careful some stylists that claim to specialize in natural hair really don't. Make sure you learn a little about what your hair needs and how to take care of it on your own as well.
I recently started all over again due to scalp issues in my crown. I also get them steroid shots, they help a lot. I will ask her to recommend a foam. Thanks for this video ✨💕✨
Thank you! I shaved my head because I was impatient and wanted to witness the growth in my hair as started to grow back. Also, I wanted a new start in general and I wanted to go further then a bigchop. I talk about this more in depth in the actual video on my channel.
Hi 👋🏽, I first recommend you try finding a solid and simplistic routine that works for you and your lifestyle. I have a lot of 4c hair content you can reference and use to guide you through your own natural hair experience. However, I recommend trying out a few tips I give and incorporate them into your routine. See what actually works for you and what makes your life easier and stick with it. Routine is key, because once you have a wash day + styling routine that day is more predictable and more relaxing in my opinion. I could get a little more specific, but overtime you'll develop a routine that works for you. Hope this help!
