    Finally, someone speaking on it. I abandoned the whole natural hair community because no one was speaking to our hair type. My hair is long, fine, and low-density. It works best when I wash, gently blow, and silk press my hair every 2 weeks. Curls are fine. I alternate protein and moisture-deep conditioners. Hair is thriving!

      I would recommend that you stop the relaxers especially if you have fine hair. I stopped over ten years ago and started getting silk presses once a month with regular trims, deep conditioners, protein treatments etc and keeping it moisturized and my hair is so much healthier and flourishing. Our hair cant really handle chemicals. I had to cut my hair to a bob after getting or colored and now it’s back to bra strap length in less than 2 years

    I get a silk press every 3 weeks to 4 weeks as well and I work out. I pull it back in a bun using a satin scrunchie and tie a satin edge wrap around my edges then put my Nike Dri Fit hat on top. When I’m done with my workout I leave the bun in or tie it in a scarf but I make sure my hair is dry before I take it down. I don’t add extra heat but I do heatless curls or braid outs if it needs a refresh and if my edges get a little puffy I just add a little edge control

    First, I want to thank you for yielding yourself to God and actively seeking him out for instructions on how to grow out your hair.
    I have your exact hair type and I was telling God yesterday that I needed to get a routine to grow out my hair. I had planned to scroll endlessly through IG tonight in pursuit of this routine.
    I was on CZcams listening to a message and I “randomly” stumbled on your video! I know it wasn’t random and God intentionally placed this video on my timeline.
    Well done and keep doing what you do. I will definitely be implementing these tips.

    First of all, I want to say THANK YOU so much! I have fine, low density sandy brown hair that is soo hard to manage.. you’ve made me realize the importance of stretching my hair! Growing up, my mom rolled my hair in after every wash day and my hair always thrived in that stretched state. In the last 4 years I started watching videos from the natural hair community on CZcams on the wash and goes, buns out of the shower, twist outs and braids out after washing etc.. AND LET ME TELL YOU something, my hair has made zero progress since I jumped on these trends. It’s dry, has sooo many split ends and knots like crazy!!!

    I stumbled upon a similar approach myself over the last couple years since I cut/combed out my dreadlocks of 20+ years. Things have evolved a lot since I locked my hair, and now I'm finding that being a 'straight natural' is the next best thing for growing my fine, low density hair long. One main thing is henna with some herbs like amla. I did that to take care of my salt & pepper greys, and was delighted to see how it thickened my hair. I also use a fenugreek based product called Save Me From that works great as a conditioning mask pre-shampoo sometimes. Nutrition has always been a big one for me in general, so I wouldn't say anything is different for my hair specifically. I have noted that taking a collagen supplement and iron supplement, which I did for my overall body, has really made a difference in my hair. I also use a red light helmet every other evening when I'm sitting on the couch.
    Between these things my hair has finally started growing the way it did only when I had locs before. My dreadlocks got all the way down to my hips, though I would usually cut them back to my shoulder blades so there wouldn't be so much weight. But locs have loose hair locked into them, so they'll naturally look thicker and fuller for even low density heads of hair given enough years.

    I am so happy there is someone I can follow who has similar fine hair to my own. My hair is kinky and coily like a cloud when it has shrunken but it is fine hair and low to medium density, very fragile. For the life of me, no matter how much I protective style in braids and cornrows and keep my hands out of my hair, my hair will not grow past my collarbone before needing a trim that sets me back so much because the ends are damaged. I really want to try keeping it straight, and see how it will do for my sensitive scalp as well. Do you ever put it in braids or cornrows? Also, when you get the silk press, does your hair treatment come with a deep condition before the silk press?

    Hi, thanks for the video. I’m also a fine haired natural and I’ve began heat training since February of this year. The issue that I’m facing is I’m having severe split ends on quite a lot of my strands but it’s my fault because I’ve been straightening my hair far too much. I’ll say once a week and sometimes starting over and blowing it mid week (I know it’s a lot!) it’s just that I’m currently living in China and my roots get quite puffy and stiff and I don’t want to get breakage. Also could it be that the hair is maybe splitting because it’s the older hair that was left vulnerable to wash and gos and braids? Maybe I just stick with regular trims and the hair will eventually stop splitting when that damage is gone? I have a question too, I like to go to the sauna sometimes, do you think I could perhaps go and then gently blow dry the roots instead of starting over with a whole wash day? I’m also going to try and stretch my wash day to at least every 2 weeks

      If I were you, I would discipline myself + hair on a routine. The routine would dictate what I do with my hair when (and nothing else) …Otherwise I’m staying on a vicious cycle that’s actually harming my hair and not letting me reach the goal! I would only put heat to my hair every 3-4 weeks. When my silk press gets old I would wear it in buns & in styles where my hair is pulled back and ends are tucked away . I would try to get to a stylist to trim my ends every 4 to 6 weeks. I would eat as healthy as I possibly could overseas and I would be patient with myself & hair throughout the whole process🤍🙌🏾…

    Hi your video came up and I was like hmmmm. Last year about this time I was taking photos showing how my bangs had reached past my lips TODAY my bangs may be at the bridge of my nose 🤦🏽‍♀️ I used some many different hair masks and Ayurvedic herbs that seemed to be helping my hair thrive initially. Basically I was doing too much to my fine, multi-textured low density strands. My texture is very loose in the back but as I get closer to the crown and front of my head my strands are more coily and tight. I have yet to try a silk press. I’ve been wearing my hair in braid styles with and recently without braiding hair. I said I was going to do this for 6 months to give my hair a break from all of the natural herbs, onion juice, aloe vera gel, rosemary water etc. to see what transpires. I’m interested in seeing if I’m a straight natural. I will need to find the right natural hair stylist in Dallas once I’m ready to introduce my hair to being straight. I’ll follow along on your channel until that time comes which will be the end of June/first of July. New subie here!

I started to go natural. While my hair grew, it tangles and knots. I was about to braid it when I met upon your channel.

      There are some stretched + safe styles that are out there.

    I just wanted to come back and say I will not buy creams again for my hair texture. The last four weeks I only used oils in my hair and my hair is fantastic. I only have to use oil a couple times a week if even and my hair is easier to wash on wash day, less tangled, my scalp is much healthier and happier. I honestly only washed my hair because I felt I was stretching it too long, but honestly I could've gone a month and been fine. I think using oils only is the key to fine hair. Who would've known.

    I have high density coarse high porosity hair. My hair thrives with the cuticles going in one direction too!!! Also natural hair styles really aren’t for me. I personally love straight hair on me. I can get my hair bone straight on 365 degrees. But I really don’t even like to have my hair bone straight. So I regularly use my flat iron just to lay those cuticle in one direction and my hair loves it!! I wash weekly. The heat does absolutely nothing to my hair. I’ve been doing this for over a couple years at this point! We can’t keep being afraid of heat. With proper hair care practices heat can actually be a very very helpful tool.
    Also my curls bounce right back even with all the heat. I really don’t even care to keep my curls. But just case and point that heat doesn’t automatically damage hair lol

Is it very very thin strands or strand…. Or is it a bit thicker ? Now density can be complicated because just because you have fine strands doesn’t mean you have low density or vice versa… I knew I had low density because when I put my hair in a ponytail the circumference of my ponytail was small … Now, that I am diligent with this routine my fine strands + my density is improving or I can say transforming 🤍.

    Wait a minute- I thought having fine hair strands means that you're not a good candidate for being a straight natural? I thought fine hairs couldn't handle getting heat as coarse hair could. That's the biggest reason why I've held back from flat ironing my hair. I have very fine, medium density, mostly4c with some 4b hair, and I'm afraid I'll fry it when I finally try putting heat on it. I have been stretching it via chunky twists mostly, I don't let it shrink up on itself ever- I even wash it in twists, and when I loose the twist to rinse, I pull it taut. I'd love to be a straight natural, but I sweat a lot in my head, plus I live in a very humid Caribbean island. It gives me hope to see that having fine strands doesn't automatically disqualify me from flat ironing my hair. I just have to figure out how to address the humidity and sweaty head factors. 🙃
