    Testimony Time lol------Hey Val.. I've been watching your videos for a while now (I think 2015). But back then my hair was really thin... people around would tease me about it and not offer me any help. I then went natural but my hair was still thin. I started watching your videos again and understood all the points you brought about hair and I also started to do my own research about relaxed hair. I then relaxed my hair about a year ago and when I tell you there's a difference... that's an understatement. My hair is so much thicker...my strands are thick...no lie. It takes paitence... research...... babying your hair...I do my own relaxers... even my own trims. Keep educating us... you're an inspiration ❤️❤️❤️. Relaxed hair can grow .. when you know what you're doing 😉😉.(sorry for the long post😃😃😃)

    I added a low iron supplement to my diet two years ago and the shedding, the length retention is astonishing. I had been borderline anemic before but fell off of paying attention. I also really cut the amount of manipulation other than bi-weekly wash and roller set. I am able to stretch my relaxers to twice a year from four times a year on advice of my trichologist. On your advice I made my stylist protect my ends when relaxing. I also started adding some oils to my bi-weekly deep conditioners under the steamer or dryer for 30 minutes. I do a protein/moisture balance bi-weekly and do a protein treatment as well as Olaplex when I relax, two weeks before and two weeks after. I trim every relaxer or if I see it needs a dusting. I roller set and dry under hooded dryer for 2 hours bi-weekly and that is all the heat I use. My new regimen for the last two years has been super easy with the lock downs so babying has become the norm. I am at bra strap length when straight and will continue to see how much I can grow.

    This video came at a great time for me since I recently had a setback!
    I have 4c fine hair which I started relaxing back in 2016. Unfortunately I didn't knew that I had to adopt a hair care regimen plus my previous hairdresser was constantly applying the relaxer on my entire head so my hair was very long but also dry, had a few tiny pieces because of breakage and was very overprocessed. I started my healthy relaxed hair journey in december of 2019 after I switched hairdressers and did a bob cut. That made me reset my whole journey and with the help of the new salon and your tips (deep conditioning, moisturize and seal, moisture and protein balance, etc.) my hair grew ALOT and was very healthy and thick. Unfortunately (again), since I got to a state where my hair looked GREAT, in 2021 I started to care for it a bit less because life got in the way and I had less time for it, and now it is back at the same lenght I had before the bob cut (a bit longer even) but very dry, and my ends are very thin and see through as a result of also not doing a cut since 2019 and trimming lightly only on relaxer days (usually around 18 to 23 weeks), so I grew out the last part of the overprocessed ends that remained at the top of my head but didn't cut it when I should have. One thing that you've said before is that when relaxed hair is healthy it starts to grow alot thicker which in my case is very true especially because I use castor oil alot, but with the whole situation with my dry ends i'll probaby have to cut my hair twice this year just because i don't want to get a bob cut again and rather continue to grow out the hair and cut it progressively. I'll have my relaxer appointment next friday after stretching for 22 weeks because I really wanted to double the moisture intake on my hair and after the cut I intent to restart my journey again still applying your tips, and with a kids relaxer which is less agressive on my fine hair and tends to leave a tiny bit of texture which makes it look alot fuller and thicker. Wish me luck 🍀🤞🏾

On top of me adding relaxers to it while not taking care of it at all. So my hair is fighting for its life right now.

    My hair is also making a come back. I tend to only get to bra strap and currently the center of my crown is broken short. My main issues: keeping my hair tangle free, consistent trimming, and consistent deep conditioning for moisture. I also think over processing was an issue in the past. Thank you for these tips. They are clear, logical, concise. I was able to reverse engineer my hair journey and see what steps I wasn’t doing correctly. #teamgeneticpotential

      @@skyelynnae hair twin! Or should I say: hair issue twin! I believe my breakage at the center crown area is from rough detangling as that area gets tangled the worst. And I think I over process the area because that center area is so curly and prone to tangles. So I now keep my hair detangled throughout the week and conscientiously wash my hair as not to cause more tangles. All the best to you on your journey!

    Hello. I just came across your video! Great tips. So I have been natural for YEARS and I have naturally curly hair so I have been wearing it curly for years. Getting trimmed and going to a curly hair specialist to get tips as well. I have single-strand knots because I believe im not detangling it well so now my hair has become significantly thin. It's depressing to me because my hair was once thick and long. So I am wearing it straight for awhile because I think me having it curly is causing me to have single strand knots which causes major breakage. I think sometimes my hair won't get thick again!😔 So watching your video is giving me hope!

    What you say about the genetics thing is so true. Women would come up to me all the time & ask what products I use to make my hair so thick. I honestly don’t use a lot of products, it’s been years since I’ve used a flat iron & I just leave it alone. Also, I work out too much to be doing all the extras only to sweat it out later that week! 🤣🥴Healthy hair is definitely from the inside out too. Awesome video. ❤️

    Val!!! I just self-relaxed using the lye relaxer you suggested. The process was much better, thank you for the detailed steps. The only thing is it seems like it didn’t process all the way. My hair looks like it’s “Texlaxed” meaning still some texture (frizzy, stretched curls) about an inch in from my new growth (which took fine). I’m not sure what I did wrong, but it’s making me think I’ll have to re-relax more of my hair next time and just cover/treat the ends. What are your thoughts?

    As always very good advice. I think this video is a reminder of all I've learned from you. I found myself going 'check', yup, doing it, got it, uh huh and so on. My only issue is at 6 weeks I get scared and uncomfortable with my hair. It feels dry and brittle and even if I do a deep conditioner a day or two later nothing. However my hair is way better than it was before. It's almost at bra strap and I'm happy with the progress. Thank you for what you do. It truly helps and you are indeed an inspiration. 💞

    • @HairliciousInc
