    Update!!: Since this day, I have altered the steps of my routine. If you watch my series of videos you will be updated completely with explanations for each change❤
    Changes I’ve made as of 10/10/23
    - no longer spray my hair with aloe Vera juice throughout week, I only spray on retwist day
    - I now use Shea butter in addition Castor oil, eco gel (for my ends, but flaxseed gel is better) and aloe juice
    - I wash once weekly
    - I retwist once weekly
    - I deep condition once weekly
    - I now use Shea moisture manuka homey intensive hydration shampoo and masque (both are moisturizing and nonstripping whatsoever)
    😊
    * Also, my edges are no longer relaxed lol , I’m done with the creamy crack💕😌

      Do you put any essential oils or carrier oils with your aloe vera juice.? Or is it just straight up aloe vera juice?

    I'm 5 months in. Mini braids(8 weeks at a time) with small crystal beads on the ends to avoid single strand knots (nothing else has kept them away other than keeping my hair off my shoulders and tucked away). I'll see if I want to go past August 2024 (1 year) once it gets here. I had a love/hate relationship with the minis in October. Back on track now.... do well!!

    • @hintofjay
      @hintofjay  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hey !! Nice consistency ❤️❤️❤️ for me the gel on my ends and end tucking, never letting my ends touch my clothes was the solution for me. I tried mini braids a long time ago, but I really disliked the time commitment. Glad to hear you are back on track 😁😁😁❤️

      So happy you didn’t have to big chop again after the pony tail. My first time getting the ponytail was terrible and let me to cutting it all off. Those things are TERRIBLE for your hair if the stylist doesn’t value natural hair & take into account people hair porosity etc. smh. That’s why I’ve been doing my own hair as of late bc people really don’t value healthy techniques. Loving your hair!!! Your twists always look so good!

    • @hintofjay
      @hintofjay  Před 10 měsíci

      Thanks girl!! i was scared when i got back home and washed my hair because i was sure id get heat damage and bald patches in the back but i didnt get very much of either!! And no she didnt care about my natural hair AT all. I might start silk pressing my own hair once a year. thanks again, I love my twists@@Wandjell

      @hintofjay  Před 5 měsíci

      The lighter one I ordered from Amazon feels heavier and I like that. The darker one I get from store isn’t as heavy, but it’s cheaper and comes in different scents so I’m going to use it for now

    • @hintofjay
      @hintofjay  Před 7 měsíci +6

      Hi, yes a very long time ago, but I was not a fan of the install or takedown process. I wash my hair weekly for moisture retention so making a style last is not my goal. Recently I started doing large size braids and I like them ❤️❤️

  • @rashidasimmons4909
    @rashidasimmons4909 Před 7 měsíci

    Hey beautiful ! Do you blow dry every time you retwist? I'm worried of heat damage, and how long does indegenous wait to wash just curious thank you 😊

    • @hintofjay
      @hintofjay  Před 7 měsíci +3

      Hi I don’t blow dry at all in between retwisting or braiding. I think she waited 1 month in between. ❤️❤️

    Yall make growing hair a huge job um like if it meant to be long it will grow but I always had long hair but I don't so nothing to get it and it's nothing wrong with it sometimes just open up your hair let your scale breath because that works for me my problem is itches scale so I went back to hair grease because it is stopped my hair itching

    • @hintofjay
      @hintofjay  Před 5 měsíci +4

      Lol this comment cracked me up 🤣 especially the job part. But I would say for a lot of people, hair takes work to get it to the length we want without it breaking off. ❤️❤️❤️glad the grease worked for you

      Some are lucky but if you have 4b/4c hair you will not have length by accident. Our hair needs care to stay moisturised
