Trend I want to left behind, is ‘addressing’ the natural hair community or natural hair as whole as if we’re a monolith or as if the education/experience to do so is present when it’s not. From my observation, the natural hair community has always been a cluster of conversations. You join one. You learn from another. You disagree with yet another. You move on to another and keep learning and growing and agreeing and disagreeing. I find the blaming of the whole community for X,Y, and Z to be shortsighted and even scapegoating, depending on the topic and the person discussing it. It would be nice (and far more accurate) if everyone just discussed themselves in my humble opinion.
Number 3, 2, and 1 are 🌶 SPICIEST 🙈This year I focused more on traditions than "trends", but I needed to get them out! Next year I'll probably focus more on trends. Ignore my hair - I’m in my “lazy” natural era lol!

Yesssssssss girl, DOOKIE BRAIDS, remember those? Oh, I'm sorry, I now have to call them "Goddess Braids?" What next... we're not "detangling" our hair, we're UNCOUPLING our goddess strands? Wait, I kind of like that! Great vid! Yes, there are many things we can let go of now, when it comes to our natural hair (and hair in general).
im dealing with a bit of thinning so for the next year I decided to invest 100 dollars each quarter and take myself to a professional to get a deep cleaning and scalp rejuvenation services. I'm not doing this out of convenience, cuz honestly I've been in the game for 14 years now, but I get a different point of view on how to better nurture my hair. sometimes that education from a professional can cut years off of you finding out through trial and errors and heart break.
I agree. I’ve the utmost respect for professional hair stylists. The time they put in to study their craft can be so valuable to clients. I think the issue is when the service and the price aren’t equivalent. $100 sounds like a great price for the value you’ve gotten!
Yes, please preach 🙌🏾 after having a hard time with my scalp in 2020 (due to covid + oil overuse) I just let go of the pure oils and butters for good. I was doing so much unnecessary stuff. Also, it was great that you touched on the colorism and texturism aspects, because we're definitely tired of the judgment. Great video like always ❤
Exactly!! Ultimately, doing anything just because it’s the trend of the moment yet it makes unhappy, overwhelmed, or doesn’t work is the issue. I’m always going to support switching things up until you find what works for YOU. Bravo!
5:32-5:46 I can almost guarantee the insults are from Black females. I hate that we can be our own worst enemies. And I totally agree. Let's embrace every word that was used to put us down. Black is beautiful and all the associations with blackness! I wasn't aware of the cutting of neonatal hair myth but I can certainly see why people would believe it. Colorism and texturism is an ongoing problem in Black communities and I long for the day when it will die out. One thing I would love to see go in 2024 is putting the idea in our young sisters' heads that their hair needs to be straitened for special occasions. Our hair is beautiful in its natural state and is suitable for all occasions! We should celebrate our diversity and uniqueness, not conform to a narrow standard of beauty.
I concur that as a member of the coils kinks, I am beyond annoyed with the weave and wigs brigade disrespecting us. And course, the " special occasion " (i.e. Fashion Police). My Afro will not ruin your show!
I'm glad somebody mentioned gender rules! I fully support folks having hair however they want, regardless of gender. People need to stop worrying about what other people are doing with their heads--that could be trend #8!
I am currently just doing just enough . No extras at all just embracing and enjoying all that God have gifted me natural. No extra products for this year. Hair in it natural state no manipulation just being free.
I actually watch and read a lot of hair care content online from people who have type 1 hair (and 2) and it's so confusing because when I'm in the type 1 spaces they always say to never shampoo your hair and only shampoo your scalp in that shampoo is made for the scalp only. They say that when you rinse it out that the shampoo will clean your hair but my hair is not flat and stringy when wet so that doesn't happen. I have to manually move the suds from my scalp to my hair in order to clean my hair. Also they're not usually putting product on their hair so there's not much to clean off besides pollution from the outside. I frequent those spaces because I like reading, talking, and hearing about hair care (especially scientific stuff) but natural hair spaces aren't as active or don't contain the types of content I want to see (like I don't want to see how these two ingredients major hair grow 7 inches overnight). Oh to clarify, the spaces aren't actually meant for type 1/2 people. Like I'm not searching up type 1 hair care since they barely ever would market themselves that way anyway. But hair care forums online, unless they're specifically made for type 4 hair, are filled with people who do not have type 4 hair. It's like how when you look for something on Pinterest and then you have to add black girl next to it so that you can see it on a black girl lol. But if you don't specify the majority is going to be the other.
I'm the same way. I started watching white girls hair videos mainly because I use certain salon brands and I can't find many black women that use them as well. I don't use "our" products because I find they are too heavy for my strands and seems like we only get 4 fragrances: tropical fruit basket, straight up chemicals, funky sulfur, or hotep Egyptian musk.😂 Anyway I digress. I do always hear white stylists and youtubers still say only shampoo the scalp. Sorry but that's gross to me. Nothing is getting cleaned without soap and FRICTION.
I wasn’t “allowed” to cut my son’s hair until after he was a year because “…it would stunt his speech and make him stutter “…man! this child is 29 and hasn’t stopped talking EVER! Maybe I should have cut his hair sooner!!!!😂😂😂😂❤
How about asking people with really long locs, “When do you plan on cutting it?” This is for my husband because his locs are almost to his ankles and someone either ask this question or instantly want to touch it.😒 Also can we trash the hate for grey hair?
I can only imagine! And yes! Gray hair gets so much hate. As I’m developing my own greys I get it. It can give the hair a “dull” look when they’re just coming in. However, I personally think a full head of greys look pretty. 🤷🏾♀️
Another enlightening video from you, Mrs. Latoya! I was shocked by what some braiders will charge for those " special braids." Furthermore, it's insane that folks are concerned about a baby's hair and pigmentation. Some folks just can't let those Eurocentic beliefs on beauty go.
Hey Latoya. Happy New Year. I haven't been keeping up with hair videos lately, but I so agree with you. I jacked up the top of my head, because I started wearing wig with no wig caps. Ugh, its finally trying to grow back in. I mean it literally all came out, but things are getting better.
I don’t want to see videos of females adding biracials saying pretty privilege or colorism and instead make videos on how to focus on learning to love ourselves and how to social climb❤
LMAO I prepoo because I wash my hair once a week (I use the pattern and love it because I can prepoo while I do something else), then use a cleansing shampoo and then use hydration shampoo if feel super stripped, and then use a deep conditioner (I no longer use conditioner). I only use scalp serum and then for my actual hair I use leave in conditioner and then curl cream and then mousse if my hair isn't as defined as I want. OMG my aunt told me (she is Caribbean) that my hair was nappy and looks hard and I need to do something with it (mind you I just landed that day so my hair wasn't done because I was on a 5 hr flight). I told her to leave me alone because her hair was permed and to stop telling me what to do my hair. I want the trend of telling people what they should and shouldnt do with their hair to die (like if they want to be natural or lazy natural, permed, color, protective style etc let them).
I'm all for it, sis!! Bring back minding your business 😂 At this point we’ve all got too darn much going on to be be giving unsolicited advice or making rude comments about what another person does with their hair. I'm tired! 😩
It's a shame all of these hair lines that have come out to capitalize on our hair. Granite, I am thrilled for black-hair care lines by black people. We need to reap from our own community. However, all of these lines make it seem like we need all 6, 7, or 8 products. Like you said, KEEP IT SIMPLE!
Bad wigs!! It. Is. time. Puh-leeeeze black women STOP with the bad wigs. If you love wigs, invest in 1 good wig and slowly add to your collection overtime. These bad wigs...have got to go. #endrant
I'm sick of wigs period because they are EVERYWHERE! I'm looking for tutorials and reviews on heat tools and folks reviewing flat irons on their already straight wigs! I'm so done.😑
I wanna see black women rock their own hair vs wearing wigs. I know a number of women who Ive known for YEARS and Ive never seen their real hair. Wigs make you look older and less attractive
How about stop following trends like no oils no butters. It didn’t make sense to me so I didn’t follow it. That particular trend has damaged so many black women’s hair, and set their hair journey back years! 🤦🏽♀️ 😢
I dislike strongly the names people come out with in regards to trends or styles. Even in the makeup community. The stupid a** names for these trends. All of them been around. Ain’t nothing new under the sun.
let's stop asking people what they're gonna do with their hair. if my hair is like 'x', i clearly want it to be like this.
THIS!!!! 😩👏🏾
So true!!!
Ooooh, yes!!
Speak on it!

Amen! 👏🏾 I think so many people would be happier if they simply listened to their OWN hair needs. We’ve got to do what works for US!
Just shaved my head again on the 1st. 🤷🏾♀️ When I was relaxed I wore a pixie soooo same thing.
👏🏾👏🏾 The freedom! Good for you!!
All 7!!! My Hair, My head, MY BUSINESS!!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This was funny and true.😂
I do my hair and mind my business. 😌♥️
💅🏾 We should all aspire to be like you.
@@LaToyaEbonyHair 🤣
Great points. How about good and bad hair? My sisters have fine hair but my hair is 4 c “nappy”. Grieve some. They always point it out to me
😩 That can go too!!
So glad to see the back of every single one of those 7 trends!! Bring on the simpler kinder cheaper things 2024!!😄
Great video💕💕
YEEEEESSSSSSSSSS
I thought we were past all this already. I thought the conversations already been had. What happened 😭

Thank YOU for taking the time out to watch! Without you, my work would feel pretty bland. *big hugs*

How you doing? Hope all is well.
Shampoo only on the scalp, was crazy😢.
It was a crazy time 😅 Not a ton of sulphate free shampoos back then.
People are still saying this including stylists and trichologists! I'm like we put product on our hair strands though.
Loved this video!!!❤
Glad you liked it!!
you dont need to condition AND deep condition on the same day. choose one or the other.
Yes!

🤣🤣.. you said that LaToya 🥰💙
Had to get it off my chest 😂
While I do love a good pre- poo, I no longer do it every wash day. I still deep condition though, because that's what I have 😉.
You should always do what works for you! My wash routine changes with my needs. Sometimes it’s necessary to do an extra step or two!
