Ladies, you can still shampoo and condition your hair while it’s still in cornrows or braids. “Leaving your hair alone” does not mean neglecting it. An unclean scalp is a breeding ground for bacteria and fungal infections.
@@tatienonoAt least wash it too. I leave my protective styles for long periods too, but I maintain it well ( washing, re-twisting, moisturizing). I looks disgusting to be frank😢
Her hair started locing. You must wash you hair regularly, not just to remove build up but for scalp health. It is not a protective style if you arent taking care of your actual hair
I think its better to wash first if you know you are ready to take it out so that to remove the dirty and to be easier even to avoid breakage dear .,,all in all i love your videos
Considering she had the braids in for 4 months and we lose approx 100 strands per day everyday the hair lose would have been significant no matter the technique used or how gentle the take down especially when there is already damage to the hair shaft
For tangling and matting. De-tangling dry with oil separates hair better and reduces shedding. Wetting the hair exacerbates tangling because the cuticles are lifted and stick to each other (like Velcro). The oil in conditioner is a saving grace tho :)
@@denisejeffrey5853 I wear wigs and leave my braids in protective style for 4months but I lose a lot of hair when taking them out. I will try using oil over night before the take down. My hair is so long and healthier these days I just want it be thicker. Also I started moisturizing and using oil while in protective style and that has helped. I just don’t get trims as much as I should, I will work on being better at that thanks!
You don’t need to do overnight my dear, I saturate mine with oils 1 hour before the take down and work wonders. Now I will try 4 months, I only did 3. And for some reason tea tree essential oil preventes my hair to tangle too much. I mix with coconut and castor oil.
No sis, even if it's for 6 months, you should have been doing the usual regularly. Washing every two weeks, and making sure it's well moisturized and oiled regularly.
The only mistake here, is she didn't take care of her hair while it's in protective styling. As long as you wash and do your treatments, this is the best way to grow your hair. I did it for two years and my hair got to waist length. But dont do it, if your hair is relaxed
@@jboss3333 Don't even worry about the products, just stick to a routine - pre poo, wash , deep treatment and seal. During the week spritz(water/oil/conditioner). Wash weekly or every two weeks. And leave your hair alone. I used tresemme shampoo and conditioner and for the deep treatment I honestly just used what was available and cheap
@@ashleybanksss keep them in. The goal is to have a clean scalp. I would only take the braids out after 3 months. Repeat again. No heat for the whole year. And this only works for natural hair, I ended up relaxing mine cz hair was too thick + 4c
Or could have bought an aloe Vera leaf from the store cut it open put it in the blender then strain out the juice….it serves as a natural detangle recipe also it aids in hair growth.
That trusty wooden parting comb is called ilarun(e-lah-roon) in my culture, It never fails me. woo hoooo, a hair transition, we love to hear that. I hope her hair and scalp progresses and gets better. Thank you for showing her hair TLC it deserved!!! side note- I thought that was you at the beginning of the video because she has a similar facial structure from the side. Thank you for uploading as usual
What was she protecting her hair from? Against water, soap, sun and fresh air? The best protection for our hair is taking care of it and being proud to wear it !
A Protective Style protects the weakest part of the hair the ends. When tucked away they won’t rub up against your clothes, lose hydration & moisture, and keeps the hair in a stretched state (shrunken hair = more tangles) Also protective styles are low to no manipulation hairstyle. The more you are messing with your hair the more breakage can occur.
Transitioning hair is difficult to detangle after protective styling because of how different the textures are. Aloe vera gel can definitely help with detangling and its good for hair and scalp health
For those saying how could she have left the style in for 4 months: her scalp was badly burned by a chemical. There was no way for her to wash it without severe pain and without risking infection. Even here it appears the burns are still hurting. I know how that feels from my relaxer burn days 😢
Water (tea) can matt the hair more, the conditioner first to add slip then the tea, just a little and then the cap. Really works at loosening the roots too ❤
Just to emphasise I appreciate you sharing. Just thought it would help you in the future Water makes the hair swell, so if matted it swells and becomes harder to release. Where as if you use the conditioner first, it will still swell due to water content But it will have more slip, hence easier to undo. Again appreciate you
Ladies and gentlemen be washing your hair ievery two weeks even if you have a protective style for long and oil the scalp so the dandruff doesn't come back
Sis, you have a beautiful face. A big chop would look beautiful on you. It's damaged and it's only hair! It will regrow healthy and quickly. I just did a big chop and 30 days later, I have significant hair growth. I dont do anything special to it. I just moisturize with my oil then apply a moisturizer.
Her hair should have been shampooed way before 4 months. Her scalp would not heal if the scalp was no healthy. Also brushing or combing the hair is important as a person can lose 100 strands a day. Let’s work on healing her scalp and the hair should be comb by the roots also.
Wetting matted hair is a very bad idea. We learned in cosmetology school to always detangle before you wet it. I did not listen and ended up with dreads from not detangling first
Ive left mine in before for 4 months and when i took out i massages oil and conditioner and i used a huge comb then a wide set comb then a regular comb.. then i washed a few times and deep conditioned it was great
Me too I was wondering how someone can walk around with 4 month hair in the name of protective styling. Unless she was depressed or had other mental health issues 🤷🏾♀️
She made a mistake by tucking the way for that period I had severe heat damage after wash and braid my hair at a salon... I only saw the damage after 3 weeks taking the braids off it was so tangled when it gets in contact with water 😢😢painful but I did my normal weekly wash routine and moisturize the hair every second day the moment my scalp healed the hair started to grow back.... I opt for a soft reset and now my hair is full and healthy again natural hair is magic
The amount of hair she lost is the amount of hair I lost after leaving my hair in a natural protective style for 2 weeks😢 !!! what can I do to proverb that ? Does moisturising and spraying my hair during a protective style help this ?

@Nayanzeka You should have loosed her braids first before applying water. Better yet, the client should have loosed her own braids and washed her hair herself. You kept brushing and tugging at her hair while it was wet. Dont you know hair is weak and fragile when it is wet and yes you pulled on her wet hair until it shredded. The client felt this happening and then tried to remove her braids herself but you stopped her. Are you jealous of her thick hair?
The amount of hair she lost is the amount of hair I lost after leaving my hair in a natural protective style for 2 weeks😢 !!! Help people 😅 what can I do to proverb that ? Does moisturising and spraying my hair during a protective style help this ?
How anyone can go 4 mnths without washing their hair. After wk 2 I would start getting palpitations. I would of simply cut it down to the new growth and start fresh

@@Shay45none of this is true. You've been brainwashed. If hair needed protecting your body would give natural protection. Let's be real, it's because you hate your hair and want to hide it.
This is almost like, after being advice to use texturizer to make my hair softer, I didn't even what texturizer was I ended up spoiling my hair, it got relaxed, now I'm just suffering to grow my hair back up, hair of 7yrs just went down like that, I'm just soooo pained whenever I remember it, my hair is just struggling to grow. I'm tired 😩

ladies, I understand protective hairstyles, low hair manipulation however, it is never OK to do this, four months is too long to keep anything in your hair
Ok so i was hoping to keep my hair for 4 months.. it been two months already i also wash it every week on braids ..i braided it 13TH September but now im not so sure ..im unbraiding it right here right now
I thought I was bad leaving my protective style in from 2.5 months but I am very careful when I take my hair down and yes I do have sheddings but not too bad sometime. But I never put anything in hair I just keep it naturally kinky. It’s pretty healthy though.
Is their anything you do to your hair whilst it’s in a protective style to stop it for over shedding and being over tangled ? I left my hair in protective style for 2 weeks and I lost A LOT of hair most of my thickness is gone 😢
@@sarahm5926 Yes I do wash and condition my hair every 3 weeks plus I use island mango oil on my scalp and sometimes a leave in conditioner spray just to keep it moisturized.
4 months???! Why? I can't go beyond 4 weeks. And MAX, 5 weeks. How was she walking about with her hair all closed up and not getting any air or water for 4 whole months?! 🤧
Haba! How could she let her hair become like this? Couldn't she use a mirror to see that. She is even lucky she did not harbour lice! As for the Lady doing the hair she really tried to have accepted this job - even if it was her business!!!😮😮
That looks like more than 4 months 😳. You can wash your hair with any protective style. I'm sorry 😮 that's being lazy and not keeping your hair clean! Lbvs 😂 smdh! 🤦🏾♀️

Right.
it's true they should have at least oiled it
I feel really sorry for her. Her scalp will heal completely and her hair will grow back just fine.
Thanks dear, hope so too
Why feeling sorry for her? It was her choice.
4 months 🤢 ladies please clean your scalp, clean scalp = healthy hair growth!
Right
the itching and the smell would just be to Dang much for me! we as human beings just gotta do better🙄
You can clean your scalp while its in a long term protective style, you do know that right? And it looked like she had pleeenty growth to me.
I think its better to wash first if you know you are ready to take it out so that to remove the dirty and to be easier even to avoid breakage dear .,,all in all i love your videos
Stop telling us what to do. I’ll be leaving my hair alone for 3 months this will be my first time! I can’t wait

The twists after detangling was a great idea . Ladies lets be careful tge products we put in our hair and skin.well done
Homemade flaxseed and okra gel would have been a saving grace here. I experienced this matting recently and it helped.

No lie. It's actually disturbing and gross🤢🤮🤧
@@daniellaasemota4344 definitely
The damaged hair looked liked relaxer damaged
i thought the same thing
When you moisturise they don't break. Ladies leave it dry for the four months. Just spray water over it daily
For those saying how could she have left the style in for 4 months: her scalp was badly burned by a chemical. There was no way for her to wash it without severe pain and without risking infection. Even here it appears the burns are still hurting. I know how that feels from my relaxer burn days 😢

There is nothing protective about this abeg..
Stop putting pressure on people!!!
This isn’t a protective style. Protective styles protect hair, this is neglect.
Four months…way too long. Also seems unsanitary.
I have to wash during protective style. Believe ppl can smell the sweat. Including your partner.
The aggressive brushing damaged the hair more...looks like the hairdresser was too aggressive
Way tooo aggressive
Instead of greet tea first you can try an oil so you have maximum slip for the take down
Good luck
Great point!

is the young lady in this video your sister? yall have the same facial structure
Yes she is
What product did she use for the dandruff so I don’t go and use some.😢
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Detangling spray might help but damn 4 months.. thats a long time
Why would you leave a style for so long ????
She had hair and scalp damage from a relaxer not a darn dandruff treatment.
How 4 months without washing the hair, what happened; she got sick or it's normal like that😢. Sorry
4 months and that’s all she lost was not a lot.
ladies, I understand protective hairstyles, low hair manipulation however, it is never OK to do this, four months is too long to keep anything in your hair
I can barely wear my mini twist 2 weeks. 4 MONTHS is really a long time!
If her hair is weak and it's wet don't use a brush it will definitely break More
That looks like more than four months.
If I cover my hair under a wig or weave for 2 months, it becomes very soft at touch.
I don't like the texture
Ok so i was hoping to keep my hair for 4 months.. it been two months already i also wash it every week on braids ..i braided it 13TH September but now im not so sure ..im unbraiding it right here right now
Yes you can!
Next time do a hot oil treatment then take down ur protective style it helps alot
You messed up wetting it always detangle dry with a bit of oil
Use oil next time better than conditioner
Yes it is
Conditioner is better as it adds moisture
Oil seals moisture
The hair was damaged already and we should always moisturize our hair atleast every 3 days.
Right
Why did she do this
She also lost a lot of hair because of the way you combed her hair

Should have used oil & not water... start at the bottom and work your way up
..
No one should have a protective style for over 2 months,it's not healthy.
Stop brushing, you are damaging...
You said you know too many times...😅
4months is not protective hair that’s neglecting that hair
Esse cabelo , precisa lavar bem com shampoo fazer uma boa hidratação , ta muita sujo o cabelo credo
How would you say you messed up prior to posting this video? This is not a video of you taking your own hair down.
The damaged hair must go
Dirty hair does not grow, causes extreme breakage!
Sorry, but not washing your hair and scalp for four months is grim.
That was wrong by putting conditioner before loosening it
I don't think you should have left it for that long
She doesn’t even need to chop it off
That was a very long time.

I can never carry my hair up to four months
You should have worn hand gloves 😮

You should be using hand gloves 🥺
You are brushing hair hair..... adding to the damage
4 months 😨😨😨😨, it that healthy for your hair? It can't be
You should not have used a brush on such fragile hair especially so wet
Wear ur gloves next time ND cover your customers backs with towel while u aid them on😢😮
This is not encouraging at all
