How long have I been Natural? All of my life, however, I started my hair growth journey in 2014
Me with a very thin and straight hair spending 40% of my day watching black womens take care of their hair. Is this an addiction?
Yes lol
Me 2
Same here.. Lol
Me tooo 🙈
same! I love it
My itchy scalp could never. I always itch so much when I can't wash my hair after one week. The longest I've gone is for two weeks. Your hair turned out very pretty and moisturized.
Thank you!!!
Same ugh
Do you find that when you apply products it’s more itchy?? Like when I oil and twist my hair the next day my scalp SCREAMS. And I’ve tried so many oils but they all do the same thing 😔
@@Jay.T4NA Yep. It's best when I allow my natural hair's oil to moisturise my scalp. But I don't always wait long enough to allow that to happen. Looking at changing my diet too.
@@dumfriesspearhead7398 oh let me know if the changes help 😭😭😭
I remember in middle school these girl came up to me and said my hair was dirty because I only washed my hair once a month IF THAT and I said "maybe that's why it's long" it's something to it. I'm telling you. We don't need to wash our hair often at all
Right..
those products are so cute, especially when, let's be honest, the majority of these hair companies only target those with type 3 or 4a hair at the most, much less 4b or 4c.
Right‼️‼️
And it's black owned 🥺
@@mariamf2315 💪🏾🙌🏾
Has a person with 4b hair this is true
@@NaturalAcademia how come you did not take the twists loose to get the grease out instead of leaving it up
You make me excited to care for my hair lol it’s in braids right now and I can’t wait to take them out tomorrow
Awe, I’m happy to hear that!! ❤️❤️
Omg same
That’s why I watch hair routine videos before watch day. They get me in the mood to wash it 😂
Same girl! I just cut my box braids and I’m ready to have my hair out
Same ,but I just got mine done 😅
I have so much respect for all the people with this curly hair, who spend so much time keeping their gorgeous hair healthy. If I had hair this curly I would wear my hair super short, I am lazy. XD
I have very much straight hair and yet i can't stop watching people treating their curly hair. It's just so interesting to me, how much care it needs and how to do it.
AMEN it do need a lot of love. N. Care that's just to much at times for me. I always keep enough hair for a ponytail lazy do. 😆 for me but imagine not running a comb through my hair man that would run me crazy just thinking how can you not comb your hair its another way. For me to help wash my hair i have a round thing i put my hand thu the strap and just rub my scalp its so relaxing omg and it feels so good its a habit i can't wait to get to that point when washing my hair it helps my scalp to grow my hair omg 3 months i would have never told no one that omg i feel sorry for this beautiful young lady scalp i bet if she let me wash her hair one time she would be looking for me every week for het hair wash. Dhe would have hair down to her feet 😆
I find it harder to keep when it's short
As a 1a from Northern Ireland this was so interesting to me. I love learning about other women, races and ethnicities. Your hair is so beautiful! You made me want to look after my fine, bleached hair better 💕
Sameee
Please don’t fall into stereotype that all black Women’s treat their hair the same. There’s a large majority that shampoo and condition weekly or more often than in this!
That’s true my hair actually thrives with two washes a week, but who wants to do that def weekly if out
@@DH-dt2hk Yes I wash mine every two weeks. Washing once in 3 months is not normal
Washing hair is so relaxing. Self pampering is always good.
‼️‼️
Yess. I love my wash days
Yup! Should wait 3 months lol.
Lucky you, mines a battle. Usually crawlin out the tub by time im done. 😒
@@beez1520 fr
I have the straightest, finest hair, so I don't even want to imagine what it would look like after 3 months without washing...but this was so interesting! And I applaud you for the patience, because this is WORK! Beautiful hair!
Yo I love how chill she is about caring for her natural hair. It’s not intimidating. Cuz I am NOT a stylist. 👀
The wash days are so rewarding after such a long time stg😩
Yesss!!!
That's so true and I'm talking about two weeks!
@@dumfriesspearhead7398 me too! Just washed my hair yesterday after two weeks and I feel like going through that process again! But I won't for at least another two weeks 😂
This is so satisfying to watch, love it. I don't know why some many people hate wash day? I love wash day so much.
Girl SAMMEEE!!
Me too. It's kinda relaxing to me
Same i look at it as pampering myself. Problem is i do it too often😅
When you love your hair you will love wash day and visa versa!
Omg Same! I never understood why people disliked wash day, i see it as self care/pampering myself.
The branding for the company is on point
The fact that I instantly screamed when I saw u post 😭 thank u for blessing us today queen 🤍
😭😭❤️❤️
I'm 4b but I could never imagine applying shampoo while my hair is in twists, I just need to make sure my hair is entirely clean and then condition. I seperate in to 4 sections once conditioned, detangle each and then braid and then undo each to rinse and braid again. LOVE the video girl. Tell us more about the low manipulation hairstyles.
The water isn’t even brown. I usually shampoo once a month and the water is so brown when I start the process 😂.
I’m so motivated to try this 3 months challenge ❤️
Do ittttt!!!! 😭😭
Samee
Naaaa 3 months GROSS! So many people said that after washing their hair regularly their hair is thriving and I can’t agree more. 3 months is nasty, grease on grease.
I don’t get how the water could be brown from hair🤔
@Black To Grace people do it all the time. It’s different from not bathing in three months. Do what works for your hair hygiene
@@tima2553 it’s the build up and dirt that causes the suds and water as you rinse it out to turn brown
Perfect timing!! I’m currently washing my 4c hair after a 3 month protective style❤️
Yyaaayyy!!!
@@NaturalAcademia are you still going to stick with the palmers olive oil or are you sticking with these?
What is your protective style?
Give your life to God , pray and ask him to guide you ,Repent , pray and read your bible , jesus Christ is coming back , I love you and Jesus loves you more , repent before its too late.❤🙏if you have any questions please ask me🙏
@@tinalarmond547 I'm good🧍🏾♂️
Omggg...I love watching 4c natural...it keeps me pushing.
Thank you!!
natural hair requires so much time and care ! it’s beautiful how delicately you wash it and style it !
Thank you!!
Relaxed hair requires the same.
I feel so much better knowing I'm not the only one who Sheds like this!
Yup, it's completely normal! A person looses on average between 50 and 100 strands a day with it being completely healthy. Now multiply that by three months. With protective hairstyles like this, the shed hair is still held onto your head until you take it all out.
I can only do 1 month. By 2 weeks I can't wait to wash lol. But it's truly helped me with growth/ retain length
I can barely survive not washing my hair for 2 weeks, I dunno how you managed yours 😭
Same. I use to but now my hair loves being clean but I think I'm going to try it next year life spare God's will.
I can only last a month, but I do it every 2 weeks to stay consistent, but Ms. Rona got me lagging😄
😭😭
@@squidwardtentacles7144 I have my hair in box braids and it will be about 8 weeks til my scalp will get shampooed again. In the meantime I just use a dry shampoo, and of course oil my scalp or use braid spray
@@squidwardtentacles7144 Same here, this quarantine made me realize that I could do biweekly washes instead of weekly washes😅
I wonder where all those comments talking about u weren’t 4c disappeared to👀😂
Girl same!!!
😂😂😂😂🍵🐸👀
I wanna say i love watching your styling videos at night. They are so calming and satisfying i like how you don't talk much and let us just see the process.
I used to go really long between wash days too! The less you touch your hair, the longer it grows ✨
facts!!
Ummm. No.
@@lebogangmanaka124 um. yes.❤️
@UDOCHI OKORO yea but a dirty scalp stops hair growth. I personally can't anymore. But it's different for everyone
Yes agreed,the less you touch your hair in a protective style growth occurs,however you will need 2 moisturize it daily cause then there is no point in keeping it in a protective style if you are not refreshing it on a daily basis🖤🖤 even if its tucked away,you should refresh it always hydrate it while it its away,don't completely do absolutely nothing while your hair's away
This is so crazy. My little sister was JUST telling me about this line. Your hair came out beautifully as always. Just let my hair get as thick and long as yours. I will NOT know how to act.
😭😭😭
Been watching you for about a couple months and you are so chill! Definitely my fav youtuber. And ever since i started watching you i’ve learned to leave my hair alone!💕
Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm taking out my 5 month old box braids and washing my hair in a few days! I'm so excited!
I just laid here like the couch potato I am and watched the entire video. I'm 2.5 years in being natural with 4c hair, and I have about 11in of growth. Yes, this pandemic really taught me that low manipulation is key to growth! I already have products I use so don't want to clutter my drawer with these, but your wash gave me ASMR vibes and it was so relaxing to watch even without sound.
I've been thinking about the perm with the way my ends tangle and I need tips, help cos it's driving me up the wall. I usually go about a month before wash and do twists and then wear wigs. I hope my hair gets longer and fuller soon so I can just wear it in an updo like yours.
i know your neesh deals with natural hair, which i loveee and appreciate so much as a young natural , but i would love to see videos about your student life/ college and things :)
Noted !! 😭
@Faffy thanks luv
She’s stays blessing with new videos 🥳
❤️❤️
Gurlll! I’m here for the frequent posts! You just posted a few days ago and then you popped up on my screen once again! You are so brave to be going that long without a wash, my hair could never. Bi weekly is enough for me🥲
😭😭 thank you!!
First time on this channel... Love that you're a Dr. Bronner's babe!! I love their products!
First of all you are SO pretty and your hair is beautiful. I need to do a protective hairstyle challenge as well. I have my fingers in my hair too much
Great video! First time viewer here.
I been doing this with my hair for about year now. I don't overly manipulate hair nor add heat (unless I see a beautician)! I allow my hair to stay in protective styling for at least month or month and half before doing another wash day or going to the beauty shop now. The most I will do while waiting is moisturizing and seal and oil my scalp. My beautician sees the difference in my hair and my scalp and she's been loving it the progression.
How does it not smell not to be rude like It’s been 3 months and I can’t go for a week without washing my hair the longest time ever of me not washing my hair was 4 days
You should be able to go for 4-6 days with healthy hair
You get your hair wet when you shower without having to wash it, that rinses the sweat off. Anything else shouldn't smell. If it gets super greasy and that smells, thats your scalp overproducing sebum, not the hair itself.
It is different from person to person. Sweat & sebum (oil) alone do not smell but mixed with bacteria from the skin or air it will.
@@verybarebones Are you saying that if these ladies say they didn't wash their hair for three months it means: they rinse their hair regularly with clean water but do not use shampoo on the hair for three months? I am not judging just curious. Thank you
I’m always so amazed how different hair care is with these kinds of curls compared to hair like mine which is just wavy (and has a bit of curls but nothing comparable). 3 months since you washed? Wow. I can only dream of that. I can maaaybe go 3 days 🤣. You got beautiful long hair.
I’m going to the low manipulation challenge based on your last video! I’m excited to see how long it will grow. Also, I only use vegan hair products made for black women created by black women. Six month challenge I believe it was. *NewSubbie*
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I tried to do low manipulation on my hair but my mom won't let me, she said I can't wait over a month to wash my hair but when I was a kid (younger I guess since I'm still a teenager) my hair was all down my back because I was tender headed so my mom barely washed my hair. I'm not tender headed anymore but I just wanna put my hair in braids or twists for like 2 months, it's not like anyone is gonna see me anyway🤷🏽♀️
i was watching this video like omg she is sooo prettyy
Thank you, I really appreciate you for your support!❤️
Hi, Steranda! A couple of videos I would like to see is a "Get Ready with Me" morning routine video, where you share your skincare regimen (I know you use carrot soap and Dr. Bronner's) but what moisturizers do you use in your face and body?
Also, can you also do a video with your sisters? I would love to see their hair, as well.
Lastly, I swore you looked familiar, because I live in Broward County and my husband is Haitian 🇭🇹 I have now adopted your simple haircare regimen (hubby says this is what they do in Haiti, as well) so I'm hoping that I can see progress in 2021, as well! Thanks for sharing all that you do!
THIS .... THIS is gorgeous a beautiful girl with NATURAL hair! You are stunning love the video!
Them protective styles been doing you justice 😍 the length is crazyyy
i LOVE how defined your curl pattern is
My hair is really short so that’s why I subscribed to you! I definitely DON’T regret it!
😭❤️❤️ thank you!!
Girrlll? Me? Love your video dem!! I’m Jamaican lol
I love your content !!!! 😍🤩❤️ I get excited when I see you pop up
Thank you! It makes me happy knowing that you enjoy my videos, I really appreciate you for your support ❤️
I was hypnotized this whole video! Lol, your hair is gorgeous
Thank you, I really appreciate you for your support ❤️❤️
I absolutely love your wash day video it’s so relaxing 😌 every time I watch them it makes me so calm no matter how my day is it makes me so relax I absolutely love love this upload it’s so relaxing I could just wash it over and over and over again I can’t wait to see the next content you think of you never seem to disappoint 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Awwwee, that means so much 😭❤️❤️ thank you!! I really appreciate you for your support!!
@@NaturalAcademia your very welcome it’s an honor to support you truly your voice is so honestly so calm and soothing your honestly the best CZcamsr to watch it’s just such an honor 🤧❤️
I have 4c hair and I am GLAD that you are showing us these products!
I find it kind of strange that people were saying that she doesn’t have 4b/4c hair because she clearly does????
I'm telling when they see 4c in a healthy long state all of a sudden it's not 4c. I'm 4a-ish and her hair is way tighter than mine. Ppl need to stop with the hair typing system. It wasn't made for us. 🤦🏾♀️
‼️‼️
It’s definitely 4c. People are confusing texture and curl pattern up. They think 4c means having course hair with no pattern but our hair definitely has one. You can just see hers more because she takes care of it well and her hair is long.
I used to think she was 4b but after this video I think she’s somewhere between 4c to 4b ..,like her hair couldn’t decide what texture it wanted to be lol. My sister has 4c and her hair doesn’t look like this ..can’t really see any form of definition..
She has definition when she was conditioning
Around 5:40
I washed my hair today, getting protective style done tomorrow for hospital placement starting January to March. I will keep it for that long ☺️. Nice video
That’s amazing!! Also, thank you!
My hands feels so tired just by watching this😭
Black hair grows when you stop trying to make it look white
Say it
Tbhhh
Yesss
Why does it have to be white?? And if you’re talking about straight hair many other races have it 😂😂. A lot of the hairstyles you claim that are “white” are PROTECTIVE hairstyles that help the natural hair grow 😂. I suggest you go educate yourself.
You motivated me so much! I just started taking care of my hair in October and your videos made it a lot easier for me❤️
oh i just got that set for Christmas! I love it so far, smells so good and makes my hair feel so soft. Question: Do you not workout? I workout daily so I'm not sure if that would affect me having to wash my hair more frequently.
I'd be interested to know if you continue using these products or add them to your regular routine!
I'm glad that I'm not the only one who will go that long without washing my hair.
Your hair looks so strong and seems as if it does experience any breakage which is so unique for high porosity hair
Watched this video all the way through. One off the very few that I do, because I wanted to see how you took care off your hair during the shampooing process and detangling. Your very gentle with your hair, wow can’t believe you didn’t comb through your hair. Great video.
Thank you!! I really appreciate you for your support ❤️
I am a relaxed girl going for tailbone length. I love watching your videos bc I am a heatless and almost combless relaxed girl (except in the shower). I take what you say to heart 💯. I had waist length relaxed, waist length natural, dreads, pixie cuts, and now I am going to waist length texlaxed. I have 5 brothers and 5 sisters, too.
BTW you can have all those different heads of hair when you as old as me (40). I feel 25 mentally, but definitely 40.
Lol, your hilarious!! 😭 I hope all goes well with your journey!!
@@mariellinda8624 I’ll be 40 in May and I look and feel like I’m in my 20s. I can relate. I’m natural and at mid back length. I accidentally cut out three inches in 2015 not knowing the end of my hair feels different from the rest.
@@lovinglifeseverymoment7360 I'm faithfully drinking my water now, using those good face products and just reminding myself that this 40 year old body gotta carry me to 50. Then that 50 year old body has to carry me to 60. So whatever growth I keep over time will be celebrated then. But also, what ever injury I have will affect my future self, too. I twisted up some bones in 2019 lol and I'm still dealing with them now. Growing old is for the brave.
I love that its vegan. I've been vegetarian for the longest but slowly transitioning my lifestyle (hair+clothes) into veganism, so thank u.💚
My pleasure ❤️
Stop being a vegetarian and eat meat. It can stop your period and make u infertile. God gave us animals to eat. Do research.
If it’s stopping your period you’re doing it wrong. If you do your research it’s not a problem...
No judgement here. Just curious. Why wouldn't you untwist your hair so that you can really clean it, then after deep conditioning it, combing it you, you can retwist it??? Just curious. Doesn't seem like it is truly clean.
it tangles like crazy if you when you use shampoo because it gets really dry and then you are going to deal with a lot of breakage on the detangling process. its better to keep the twist
Your hair honestly still looked ok before the wash, I'm sure it felt a lot dirtier but it really didn't look dirty at all. But you're also super beautiful in general so you could prolly wear a plastic bag and still look good af lol
I don’t have 4c hair but i love that they make special stuff for y’all hair
I see Dr. Bronner's in the background and I love that soap.
I’m so happy I caught this video! ✨ I think this may be a message to wash my hair AND put in twists because I left it in an Afroish somewhat stretched state and now it’s tangled, dry and matted.😭😭
😭😭😭
Wet a small section first and twist it like that.... gonna take a while but the plus is you don't have that much breakage or a headache after
@@weirdmyst7963 that’s actually what I started doing! Last wash day I actually washed and conditioner in sections and didn’t take it out of those twists. I want to do that more since because it really does help with breakage. I skipped wash day today and saving it for tomorrow😭. I do want to style in twists and leave it in but I need to combat my laziness lol. Thank you for your help!☺️✨
I love that you always have a new video out whenever I need motivation xx your hair looks so lush btw ❤
i just washed my hair yesterday after a month of not washing and i had so much growth! i loved the growth but i need to be more consistent with my washes lol.
Update: My hair grew out a lot because of this method. I started at the end of December after Christmas and went to my beautician last Saturday- May 29. I only wash my hair once between December and early May. I had my braids under my wig Done in February and in early May before my appointment which was May 29. Kept my hair moisturize and I only use Natural hair products which are black owned from Etsy. Hope this helps someone! 💗
Awesome, thx for the update! what etsy products did you use if i can ask?
Im going to leave my braids in for a month or two, wash my hair and then get another hairstyle for a month or two. Let’s see how much my hair grows
I've watched you for at least a month... but I subscribed yesterday cuz I like your personality/ vibe😊💕
After the 3rd vid I just had to sub😂
Welcome to the cluuubbb!!! Here is your initiation crown (👑)
@@NaturalAcademia lol thank you😂👸
girl i’m leaving my cornrows in for 3 months. hopefully with time i’ll get to your length!
😭😭still moisturize though
@@NaturalAcademia yes most definitely. i got me some leave in conditioner that works for my hair and leaves it feeling like a cloud!
Nooooo... 3 months is TOO much! You never know. But don’t go 3 months!!
Don't jump straight into 3 months. Start with one month first. Depending on the products you already use, you may need to change some things. I would recommend watering down cream based moisturizers so there isn't a large amount of build-up that may end up causing irritation or worse - breakage. Good luck on your journey.
@@ttyngordon thank you! yes i’m avoiding cream moisturizers with my cornrows. the leave in conditioner i use it the spray by dark n lovely. I also spray rice water every 2 weeks so twice a month!
I'm so happy to see you reviewing this.
Yesss I’ve been waiting for this.
Ur 2nd!
I have been binge watching all your natural hair videos today and became a *new subbie* 🥰🤗✨
Question: do you oil your scalp between washes? If so, how often? Thanks!!
Hey!! It makes me happy knowing that you enjoy my videos I really appreciate you for your support! ❤️❤️
In regards to your question, no, I don’t usually oil my scalp. I find that it makes my scalp itchy so I don’t usually do it.
I think your hair is so beautiful... thank you for sharing videos. I enjoy watching and learning😊
Thank you, I really appreciate you for your support!❤️
I’ve heard nothing but great things about these products. I love wash days.
So happy to see a new post! Love your videos!❤️
Thank you, I really appreciate you for your support!❤️
Wash day for me was yesterday... only if i could have another one today 🥺 I give props to everyone dedicated to their natural hair 🥳
Honest question: How do you prevent your hair from smelling? If I don't wash my hair for 1 week I can't feel a bad odor...
You wash it.
@@skinnylegend82 obviously I'm asking in this situation that she won't wash her hair for 3 months...
@@Ingrid-qm5pw Try using maybe less products and maybe try to cowash.I find when I use less products and only use light oils on my scalp eg almond oil ,It helps to eliminate any bad odour .You could also try cleansing your hair with apple cider vinegar (this must be diluted with water and can add perpermint oil ).
@@chi20_ Thanks for the tips!
@@chi20_ These are great tips, I wanted to ask her if she put any kind of oil in during the 3 months . . . like I can't imagine she put nothing in, wouldn't it feel really dry?? But you can't put normal smoothening oils like castor or coconut in cus they'll go rancid . . .
I envy you so much for being able to detangle your hair without combs!
Nice job!
Thank you!! 😭❤️
@Wanda Akins transition! Everytime u get new growth trim off some of ur perm.
I love your hair sm!
I hate when people try to tell you what to do with your hair. If you have a lot of product build up its good to wash more than once I always wash twice 🙌🏾
Wow your hair is so beautiful for someone with board straight hair it looks so beautiful i know its probably a pain to brush and stuff but i wish i had it before you do the twists with it just down it looks so pretty
I don't think I can go 3 months, but I'm gonna do a month challenge. I just had washday yesterday and I put my hair in smaller twists than yours. I'll wash, condition and moisturize after two weeks with the twists still in and then I'll retwist right after. And then I'll take it all down at the end of the month and have a proper wash day. If my hair feels dry during the month I'll moisturize with my DIY hair spritz (with water+ leave-in-condtioner + coconut + castor oil). I'm hoping for great results!
Gurl you motivate me to take care and neglect my hair...i dont know how i feel about that but THANK YOU!!!
you uploaded this right after i got done washing my hair👏🏾
❤️❤️
Love the hair, as always! ❤So...when are you dropping that skincare routine? 😊
This took me back to the days of doing my daughters waist length hair. I had strong arms then lol. I'm so happy she has locs now lol
Mad props to POC and how much work it takes to care for your hair. Very interesting and very beautiful.
Thank you for such honest videos ! Truly inspiring ❤️
I always end up on this side of youtube even tho I’ve got the straightest, ickiest hair in the world... but Im not mad, your hair is amazing!!!!
Natural Academia.... I love you so much 💖. Your videos are real and natural. Thank you, dearly appreciate your content.
How often did you detangle, moisturize and retwist throughout this challenge ?
Once every 2-3 weeks
@@NaturalAcademia Why do you keep your hair in twists whilst washing hair, is it to prevent breakage?
@@ssonkogarvey so it wont tangle and easier to detangle.
@@ssonkogarvey I think to prevent it from getting knotted up and from single strand knots
@@ssonkogarvey it prevents tangling. When our hair gets wet, it shrinks back to its natural curl pattern, which is a nightmare to detangle. Also shampooing makes the hair tangle even more, so keeping it in twists while washing prevents all that.
I just realized that I've been washing my hair wrong. I never washed my hair in parts and I never finger detangled.
I'm currently on a hair growth journey. Lessons taken. Thanks sis!
Your hair is beautiful!!! omgggg
I wish my hair could get that long. I feel like I use all the best products and do all these methods and my hair caps off at my shoulder 🤷🏾♀️
What are u sealing your ends with?
Do you come your hair dry, and do you get trims? You might be experiencing breakage.
I want to do this challenge you did. But I don’t know if I can do it under “protective” style like braids and twists with added hair 🙂. Your videos are usually so satisfying, I never miss one
Thank you!!
Have you tried yarn? It’s lightweight and does braids and twists without much tension.
What's more important is whether your hair is low or high porosity. That would determine what products to use.
This company does a great job at making products for kinky and coily hair. The 4c Only products are great, and their Curlmix line of products works great for those who do wash n go styling.
I don’t mean to sound weird but you’re gorgeous and I’m obsessed with your channel!
It's literally wash day for me. I haven't washed the strands of my hair in over 6 months. I haven't washed my scalp in over 3 months. I'm doing a blowout with my revair afterwards. My icon photo was taken last year October. Wish me strength 🙏🏿
Wow! How do you keep your scalp clean
@@solarlola5953 I use a ACV and water delusion. Take a small towel and dip a corner into the solution. Then I pressed the rise into my scalp and do tiny rubbing/circular motions. Probably takes me a good 20-30 mins.
When I wash my scalp and or hair I make a homemade shampoo using soap berries, a little ACV, and vegetable glycerin. I use my blender to froth it up, place into an applicator bottle and concentrate on just my scalp. And I rise out the solution using a different applicator bottle filled with water. I keep my hair in a lose bun the whole time. ^^That's when I'm just washing my scalp.
Keep in mind I do not use any products that leave a hard cast. No grease, no store bought gels (I use a d.i.y. flaxseed gel), I don't even use oil on my hair or scalp. All I use is a D.I.Y gel (sometimes), but mostly water and glycerin mixture, and store bought butters/creams. So I almost never get build up.
Also I am extremely high porosity, 4c.
@@solarlola5953 hope that helps 🙏
@@julyjones5500 thanks for the tip. I really want to try and stretch my washes to reduce manipulation.
Oooh, wish I could see the results!
