In summary: 1) barely washed hair 2) didn't use heat 3) didn't use treatments 4) no excessive styling 5) not obsessed with tracking growth 6) didn't use combs but still watch because eventually she does use some heat and treatment :)
Me too lol I do what my momma did wash and grease my scalp you'd be surprised! I'm 16 months natural and I'm shoulder length from bald I don't got the time to be buying a bunch of crap knowing very well we don't all have the same hair type I'm not trying to feel dumb when my hair hates it🤣 I've seen too many videos of people regretting buying stuff they saw others using
Right!!! Who wants to spend hours on end....5 or 6 hours on their hair? Who has time for that? Less manipulation and low maintenance styles wiork for me. While transitioning braids are my go to just so I can leave it alone and let it grow.
Some people do the most and have long hair....some people do the least and they have long hair. Try both and see which route works for you 🤷🏽♀️ I love your videos. Watching your journey makes growing long hair seem so attainable. Black girls can do it too, you have amazing hair !
I definitely agree on “no use of abundance of products” that becomes SO overwhelming. And especially forget about those expensive products. Not to say one should choose cheap products, but just to be mindful that every product shouldn’t be expensive b/c there are less expensive good products out there. I totally get you about treatments. It gets tiring after a while. But I know hair still grow w/o treatments, even if it’s not a speedy growth.
Finally someone says it! Sis I don't wash my hair often either. I JUST started to try and wash my hair once a week since quarantine but usually, 4-6 weeks is my schedule too (mostly because I am LAZY). I've been natural since 2013 and my hair is long. Happy to learn I'm not the only natural to do this lol.
Omg I agree about the hair washing thing. I swear I don’t know how women don’t become exhausted washing their hair every single week and doing that whole wash day every single week. I wash every 2-3 weeks and it’s usually closer to 3.
I wash my hair once every month and a half I like it that way.🙂it stays soft I only use shampoo, deep conditioner, oil,shea butter and edge control (rarely use it)
Yris Massango I can’t go past two weeks and that’s pushing it. Oils actually irritate my scalp. I know that i do not suffer from dandruff but another scalp condition that looks similar to dandruff and oils irritate it. My scalp get congested by oil production so I have to wash every week. I wish that I could go up to three weeks.
I don’t think it’s the not washing that makes the hair grow, that’s just her thing. You can wash your hair in braids or twists. Wash only the scalp and it will still grow because in reality if she moisturises every 5 days , it’s the same thing whether you Wash or not. It’s just how. For example I only comb my hair when it’s deep conditioned and I have very minimal shedding. Extremely minimal, One year and my hair is down my chest. I don’t have the genetically long hair , I don’t . So I do treatments before I wash, my scalp is also sensitive so I don’t oil. I itch after 5 days or 7 max so I must wash so I only use moisturising shampoos . Now she can sulphates cos she washes her hair after months which is the same thing. No sulphates and once in two months ; sulphate. It’s pretty much the same thing.
@@connieholmes9047 it sounds like seborrheic dermatitis since that's what I have. My scalp hates oils and my hair doesn't agree with them either. I used to wash once a month when relaxed but since I've gone natural my scalp went nuts and i wash every 2 weeks. Certain products I've used when my hair was straight I can no longer use, like that suave coconut shampoo and conditioner, it set my scalp on fire after a few months.
Dirty hair grows Chile, that's just the truth, my hair is a few inches to my waist now. That's actually what lm doing now not washing it too much, coz that's too much manipulation
No washing ur hair grows ur hair. It gives u a clean scalp. She moisturize her scalp to clean it I wash my hair every two weeks and my hair has flourish. washing my hair every month never grew my hair. I lost a lot of hair but it's probably different for u.
I agree with both of you and I understand that it varies from person to person. Personally, my hair growths the FASTEST at its dirty state but it doesn’t grow when there is too much product buildup.
Omg you're my hair twin! I love the simplicity in your routine and how you showcase that 4C hair isn't inherently complicated. I feel that it's mostly about consistency and retaining length by protecting the ends. I've been natural my whole life and am excited to grow it to waist length like you! edit: you've got a new subby now
Growing my hair out, I definitely didn’t wash my hair every week. I wash every 2-3 weeks. (I mostly wear mini twists). I didn’t do a lot of wash and goes. I never use eco gel or Cantu products in my hair, they dry my hair out so badly.
Im glad I’m watching this because I’ve been a lazy natural recently, and I don’t think I’m slacking at all because I’m still nurturing/moisturizing my hair.
I have been binge watching your channel and the Lord has moved me to comment! I love your personality and how you are so unashamedly you!!! I have been working on that myself and praying to God to help me, then He sent me your channel. Goes to show we can find answers from God in ANYTHING. You are also helping me to accept my natural hair soo much! I was literally bout to put in some box braids (didn’t really want to I was just tired of mini twists lol) but now I am just looking up fresh, new type 4 flat twist protective styles! I hate putting in box braids anyway 🙄😩 But thank you so much for this channel ❤️❤️
I'm currently combing out my freeform locs after two years and my hair feels alot more healthier and thicker. Being a freeformer is all about less being more. I would just wash my locs with shampoo. Sometimes with just water and would only moisturize with water and oil. I want to continue doing this with my loose hair and see how it goes. Less is definitely more.
wash my hair once every month and a half I like it that way.🙂it stays soft I only use shampoo, deep conditioner, oil,shea butter and edge control (rarely use it) .I only use a big tooth comb and my fingers to detangle and a rat tail comb to part. And I massage my scalp once a week.
God bless you. Jesus loves you so so SO much. You are so precious to Him, He sees you and loves you through and through. He loves you, talk to Him, He cares about you more than anything! He loves to hear your voice, He’s forever waiting. ❤️
Thank you for the tips! One of your other videos prompted me to get bentonite clay yesterday. I was wondering if you feel as if you have to wear your hair out more now that you’re a CZcamsr? I’ve heard other ytbers say that they struggle with that.
You are welcome, I am glad to have helped, I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️ In regards to your question, no lol, I have a set routine and I do a pretty good job at sticking through with it. Typically, whenever I let my hair out within the 3-4 times in a month that I do, I just record like 3 videos in one day (I recorded this particular video two weeks before uploading it, My hair is now washed and in big braids). Also, I don’t feel pressure to let my hair for the camera. I’d rather wear my big braids.
I love your hair. I feel like it’s so rare to find CZcamsrs with 4c hair that is as long as yours. I’ve been natural for like 8 years. I have to wash my hair frequently - 1 to 2 times a week - because I have psoriasis, so I have to manipulate my hair often. I am not sure how long my hair is because I never really check, but it’s probably around BSL. I think it’d be cool to have WL hair. I never wear my hair down, but I just think it’d be fun to get to run my hands along hair that long. I also have relatively thin hair, and I’ve found that length can help make high-shrinkage hair look more voluminous. I’m glad you are showing the world long, 4c hair through your channel. I also really love how low maintenance your routine seems!
Girl they say always deep condition every week 😭 tbh i never really saw a difference when i did this thats how i run out of products so fast 😭😭😭 but thank youu i now follow your routine and im expecting amazing results 🥰. i will not wash as often 😭😭 because i run out of products faster than im supposed to
I don’t do deep conditioning treatments I feel like they are bs in a jar rather hot oil treatments actually will get in the hair cuticles just my thinking though.
Deonna Hensley for hot oil treatments I like to mix wild growth oil, olive oil, and avocado oil, but like for regular moisturizing I’ll use avocado and castor oil for sealing. If I don’t have wild growth I’ll use tea tree and peppermint essential oil.
I think you’re right about protective styling. I used to wear yarn box braids all the time for the first 5 years of my journey, it thin out my hair so bad (well a combination of that and neglect). It’s all about balance for me now
Yarn dries out your hair. It's absorbent. I've been a natural for almost two years now, and hiding it under synthetic hair and braids is what has helped me so much. I did yarn braids like twice when I began my journey, mainly cause I was naive and loved a good locs look without actually putting my hair in locs. After learning more about hair and tension, I realized that the yarn was too tight on my scalp, coupled with the fact that it absorbed more moisture and left my hair dry. A recommendation for yarn braids is to coat it in shea butter to seal it and prevent it from absorbing moisture. All in all, stop doing the yarn braids and try other means of protective styling, use grease intermittently with oil, and other changes according to your preferences. Pray for your hair as well. Include Jesus in it☺️
Nice video and your hair is lovely. Well I was like you, I washed my hair like every three months but changed after I cut all my hair off in 2017. Now my hair is growing back, I’m back to my old ways.
Natural Academia yes they do. My hair has been braided in 8 plaits since my last wash day which was 2 weeks ago. All I do is wrap my head and go. You really have a head full of hair, I have varying density throughout and about 4 curl patterns but I love my natural hair. Your hair is an inspiration, definitely hair goals. I hope you and your family will continue to stay safe 🙏🏽.
If I followed her regimen my hair would die...tried it...when there's too much product build up my hair stops being moisturized....my hair needs excess stuff to grow
It just depends on you and your daily activities... I can’t do that because I do dance and I sweat 💦 a lot but if I don’t like on holidays I do every other week or every three weeks which is one time a month
Thank you!! I really appreciate you for your support. 😊 ❤️ In regards to your question, the wooden combs work amazing. When I used it on my hair and it glided through like butter. I typically use them when I am braiding my boyfriends hair. It really helps speed up the detangling process on his hair and is very gentle ( my boyfriend bought his wooden combs from amazon for like $15 and he has four of them)
Your hair Regiment is the same as mine.my hair hates water my hair is still growing, its true dirt grows hair. Natural two years cut my hair to three inches today it's thirteen inches. Virgin hair fertilizer, jbco regular castor oil,,peppermint oil keep doing you great video be bless💜
It's not dirt, it's leaving your hair alone. Cos even shampooing is manipulation. And also when people shampoo, that's usually the end of a style, leading to more manipulation to take it down and restyle.
My hair hair hates being out.. i took out my braids after a few weeks and left my hair out for two days and it was shedding excessively.. 🥺 so no more leaving my hair out
Did you wash your hair right after you took the braids out out, or did you just leave your hair alone? The excessive shedding may just be the shedded hair that was trapped while it was in braids. If so, that’s completely normal.
My hair actually grows when I protective styles I only do them because I don't have the time to wake up and comb my hair I just don't have the time but I leave it out for 3 weeks to let it breathe but I really don't have the energy
I wash my hair every 2 months because my hair is mostly in proactive styling and when I leave it out I wash when I take out my styles and 2 weeks later then I wash then do my hair
😩I’m getting a trim soon 😩but I don’t wanna get one. I need a trim in the bk the length is like half an inch difference. 😩but idk I got an appointment soon
I don't get notifications but i checked and YT says that your videos are meant for kids ..that bell is deactivated on my end...but i will still look for you...have been a product junkie but it's kinda unavoidable when starting out but so far i can at least say i have some favs but am not there yet but i really want to keep it simple..that Palmers olive oil pomade made my hair really hard i don't know why..
Typically only do treatments on my wash days but if I don’t wash my hair in 7-8 week with shampoo, I usually do a treatment at least one time in between.
Trimming the hair. I feel like Trimming every 6-8 weeks is a myth. If you take care of your hair, you won’t have to trim so damn often. Trimming twice a year is good for me.
If I wasn’t living in the Caribbean I definitely wouldn’t be washing my hair every 2-3 weeks... 4-6 weeks sounds good to me especially being a lazy natural hair girl 😪
I don’t prepoo. I also don’t detangled my hair in the shower.. I usually wash my hair in twists (unless I am doing a treatment like the onion juice or aloe vera)
I just got to tell you all and proclaim that the Lord is good, and he truly delivers you from all your pain.
Amen
Amen !!!
Amen
Amen!
Amen 🙏🏾
In summary:
1) barely washed hair
2) didn't use heat
3) didn't use treatments
4) no excessive styling
5) not obsessed with tracking growth
6) didn't use combs
but still watch because eventually she does use some heat and treatment :)
Thank you!!
Thaannkkkkssss still watched the whole vid but thankkss
Thank you!!
Somebody normal and don’t use a crap ton of products to grow their hair out
right i literally only use shampoo, conditioner, a leave in, grease and the occasional oil
Lol Thank you, I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️

I wash my 8 yr olds hair every 4-5 weeks and people say it's nasty but she has MID back length Natural Hair....love your hair and your channel

I don't think I could go that long not washing my hair, but only because of working out almost daily and sweating in my hair as a result. I wish tbh.
I understand that it varies from person to person and I can see why that time frame is pretty long for manny people.
Yeah same I workout everyday and play sports so I sweat a lot so i wash my hair every week
The way my lazy is set up that long length of time would be heaven... but sadly I can't because my scalp won't allow it.... I have tried though lol.
I've found that rinsing my hair with water only helps to stretch my wash days for weeks. But I definitely wash my hair if it starts feeling stiff/dry.
I wash my hair once every month and a half I like it that way.🙂it stays soft
I only use shampoo, deep conditioner, oil,shea butter and edge control (rarely use it)
We love a simplistic queen 👑
I gotta watch my hair every 1-2 weeks with this dry/dandruff scalp of mine.
Have you tried applying oils to your scalp?
Yris Massango I can’t go past two weeks and that’s pushing it. Oils actually irritate my scalp. I know that i do not suffer from dandruff but another scalp condition that looks similar to dandruff and oils irritate it. My scalp get congested by oil production so I have to wash every week.

For me, Hair grease is the only thing that really seals my hair! Oils just don’t enough for me. Idk, maybe I haven’t tried enough oils to see💞💞💞
Same!! Honestly, nothing works better for me.
Finally! A real person, telling the whole truth !
I love that olive oil from palmers, but it always turns my pillows and scarves purple!
Girl your hair is georgeous! And those lemons in your background is making your complexion pop!!
😂 ❤️Thank you
I love how she doesn't say we have to wash our hair every two weeks and do a lot just so it can grow 1 inch every 2 months.

My hair gets REALLY dirty and oily hair going on the middle - end of the second week , so once a week is great for me!
I just noticed that in your youtube title intro the "i" in Academia is missing!!
😭 wow, I feel stupid. That gives me a reason to make a new one. Thank you for noticing, I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️

I feel like your hair just takes and keeps in moisture quite well tbh 🤷🏾♀️ that’s why it grows and flourishes.
Me too
Yeah she did say her hair is high porosity
If I followed her regimen my hair would die...tried it...when there's too much product build up my hair stops being moisturized....my hair needs excess stuff to grow
You are fabulous and your hair is gorgeous😃 You look like my gorgeous niecey-pooh! You even sound like her!
thank you so much for the inspo❤🔥
I also don't do intricate hairstyles. I'm not good at styling, to be honest. I can't wait until I stop actively growing out my hair 🤣
Where the Natural hair guys at 🙋🏾♂️
🙋🏾♀️
That shampoo does dry out your hair. Months later I'm still trying to repair my hair.
It just depends on you and your daily activities...
I can’t do that because I do dance and I sweat 💦 a lot but if I don’t like on holidays I do every other week or every three weeks which is one time a month
Yessss I’m trynna grow my hair to cause sisss
Lmaoo 😂
You're BEAUTIFULLY GORGEOUS!!
My hair Really enjoys the Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures!
how did you feel about the wooden comb you used? i bought one a few weeks ago but haven't used it. your hair is beautiful!
Thank you!! I really appreciate you for your support. 😊 ❤️
In regards to your question, the wooden combs work amazing. When I used it on my hair and it glided through like butter. I typically use them when I am braiding my boyfriends hair.

I wash my hair every two months
It's not dirt, it's leaving your hair alone. Cos even shampooing is manipulation. And also when people shampoo, that's usually the end of a style, leading to more manipulation to take it down and restyle.
My hair hair hates being out.. i took out my braids after a few weeks and left my hair out for two days and it was shedding excessively.. 🥺 so no more leaving my hair out
Anielyse Daniel my hair can’t be out because it turns into a wooly mess lol
We love a low manipulating queen 👑
Exact same it's either I wear twists, get it braided or wear a wig. Hardly wear it out now
Did you wash your hair right after you took the braids out out, or did you just leave your hair alone? The excessive shedding may just be the shedded hair that was trapped while it was in braids. If so, that’s completely normal.
Mary B. I didn’t wash my hair, but it felt thinner than normal when I did comb it out. It could honestly be paranoias
My hair actually grows when I protective styles I only do them because I don't have the time to wake up and comb my hair I just don't have the time but I leave it out for 3 weeks to let it breathe but I really don't have the energy
Use products that work for your hair.
However if your looking for a good wash n go use Green Apple & Aloe Hold me Down Gelle is Amazing
Love your hair can't wait for creme to grow out

I get easy product buildup and I have hypothyroidism which leaves my hair dryer than normal. So I need the products to at least keep some moisture.
I wash my hair every 2 months because my hair is mostly in proactive styling and when I leave it out I wash when I take out my styles and 2 weeks later then I wash then do my hair
your hair look so lovely
Thank you!!
Come through consistency!!!
Thank you for noticing, I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️
Natural Academia anytime 💗
Your mannerism, reminds me of NaturallyPhilo.

You know, when I came across your channel I was like this lady looks like eVaniwithaV
Really ? Lol She’s so much older than I am
I wash mine every 3-4 weeks or 5
😩I’m getting a trim soon 😩but I don’t wanna get one. I need a trim in the bk the length is like half an inch difference. 😩but idk I got an appointment soon
Love her energy! 😂 thanks for the tips
I don't get notifications but i checked and YT says that your videos are meant for kids ..that bell is deactivated on my end...but i will still look for you...have been a product junkie but it's kinda unavoidable when starting out but so far i can at least say i have some favs but am not there yet but i really want to keep it simple..that Palmers olive oil pomade made my hair really hard i don't know why..
I’ve been natural for 14 years .... my hair has been collarbone length for the longest😔
Thats crazy...any idea why?
Sure Kalisa I think it’s because I used to straighten my hair all the time
I love the currrrls😍😍😍😍
Thank you!! I really appreciate you for your support ❤️
I agree I only use two products for my styling process
Since you don't wash your hair as often, at what point do you do your treatments? Only on wash days or between wash days?
Typically only do treatments on my wash days but if I don’t wash my hair in 7-8 week with shampoo, I usually do a treatment at least one time in between.
Loooove this video, Thanks!
Thank you!! It makes me happy knowing that you enjoyed the video, I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️

Than you!! I really appreciate you for your support 😊 ❤️
Your video's are so good and osume, but how do you deal with single strands knots? Do you cut them of repear them.
What is the herbal treatment you used to cure your scalp condition? In a video you mentioned it but didnt say what it was.
You are gorgeous

Trimming the hair. I feel like Trimming every 6-8 weeks is a myth. If you take care of your hair, you won’t have to trim so damn often. Trimming twice a year is good for me.
If I wasn’t living in the Caribbean I definitely wouldn’t be washing my hair every 2-3 weeks... 4-6 weeks sounds good to me especially being a lazy natural hair girl 😪
Would you do a wash n go tutorial?
Do you prepoo? Or do you detangle your hair mainly in the shower?
I don’t prepoo. I also don’t detangled my hair in the shower.. I usually wash my hair in twists (unless I am doing a treatment like the onion juice or aloe vera)
Natural Academia thank you so much for the info ❤️❤️❤️
No problem
whats your actually hair type? like omg #hairgoalzz❤️😍💯🔥 i need my hair like this asap 😩😩💯
Heyy!! I have type 4 hair.
Do you condition or cowash between washes?
No I do not, sometimes I do clay mask treatments in between my wash days.
I just big chopped and I feel I’m become a product junky and I can’t get a good wash n go
Have you tried any ayurvedic treatments??
No I have not. I hear really good reviews about it tho
I love ayurvedic treatments
