Take the Guess Work Out of Natural Hair Care. ~ Facts and, "Not So" Common Sense to Longer, Thicker, Healthier Hair. - Jak na to + styl
Either you trim them ends or they'll trim themselves
Lol .. exactly
LOL so true.
And then some!
@@reemallicious right lmaooooo
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Split ends will allow moisture to escape too. That's why it feels drier
Great observation and so true
I believe you!!! Cause my ends would always feel rougher than rest of my hair. Like the rest of my hair would look amd feel moisturize but my ends. And i know i moisturize and seal that part too.
Not to mention that your hair will continue to split.
@@candacebeater8203 as it continues to grow.
You're straight to the point, timing is great, and the advice you give is natural, not a gimmick. Thank you for taking time out of your life to feed us your wealth of information, it's greatly appreciated.
Thank you for this comment... it made my day đ
I just tune into this thank you very much
I used to hate when my beautician trimmed my hair after growing it out for months at a time but realized how much healthier my hair is with trimming its easier for it to grow and manage the hair.
The beauty in your skin is so overwhelming.
I love this comment soooooo much. I love how women can uplift other women.â€â€
I agree
Am I the only one who leaves the chair pissed off after noticing the stylist cut of TOO MUCH? I know its essential but mann lol!đ€Łđ
*You're giving me mad hair and skin GOALS!â€*
Thanks girl ... and you are not the only one. That's why I do it myself
She is the perfect example of beauty and brains.
Exactly, my stylist has always dusted / tipped my ends that's what he calls it. Every four months four and a half months I will trim 1/4 no more than 1/2 of an inch. My ends are really good though. My end never really "need" it we just stay on the schedule.
Kiki's Kurls, yes, that is why I don't allow professionals to trim my hair, I do it myself.
A stylist butchered my hair. Never again will I let anyone cut it like that
Check out Indigenous Strandz. She's a thigh length, high porosity, 4b natural non-trimmer. 22nd Century Natural Woman is another one with super long hair who doesn't trim. Bottom line know your hair. Long length can be obtained either way. Don't just trim because everyone else is. Like GB, do your own experiment.
Indigenous Strandz immediately came to mind after I watched this video đ. Perhaps it has to do with how much care she shows her ends. From some comments I've read on different videos, I lot of people aren't willing to put in that kind of work on their hair.
I think some ppl's hair just has more tolerance than others (whether genetics, hair care regimen, or styling techniques aid in it). I don't trim as often as I should/could, but I still retain length. Mind you, I do get tangles & breakage, but not enough to fully counteract growth. My hair is 4abc/waistlength-tailbone & I keep it twisted most of the time with mini-seasons of WNGs. Would it be healthier with regular trims? Probably. But I'm a lazy natural & just not that committed (yet).
Yes you said a mouthful!! I retain more and have healthy ends with less trimming
It depends on the hair but MOST should trim. That strandz lady must just have knot-resistant hair. There is a Jamaican "natural" (she dyed her nat. hair) whose hair, though 4c, doesn't really curl on itself. It's coarse, it's curly but it lays kinda flat. That's unusual. Maybe those other ladies have "different" hair. My 4c and my daughter's 4b must be trimmed. Ymmv, i guess.
Remember Indigenous Strantz puts Flaxseed on her ends to keep the knots at bay. 22nd Century uses the search and destroy method. I keep sheers in all my styling areas and will everyday pamper my ends using multiple methods. Green Beauty is in my top three.
I used to wait like 6 months to trim my hair . I had a lot of knotting. Now I shorten the time to evey four months. Less tangled .
6 months is wishful thinking! 4 months is the max i can go without one.
@@thefactsaccordingtogabbie149me too
I just trim my hair whenever I feel like it.
how long is your hair?
I might do it every month or two months
Wow you really do love us. Thank you for this!!!
What a sweet comment!
Right. She sacrificed her hair for total strangers to be educated. Lol
Some people do, some people don't. Depends on how well you preserve your hair. One CZcamsr with natural 4b hair doesn't trim, yet has past thigh-length hair.
Who?
@@chalseywilder937 Indiginous Strandz. She uses very little products and keeps her hair in long twists. She uses Castor oil and flaxseed gel to seal the ends and preserve them.
@@Zizzyyzz oh okay. I follow her already. Not sure what her hair type is.
You're right. She also doesn't use commercial shampoo and conditioner which I am starting to think cause more damage causing us to need those trims. Come to think of it 22nd Century Natural Woman doesn't use commercial hair products either. Her hair is also super long and healthy and she doesn't trim. Both ladies use COMPLETELY natural hair care. There must be something to that. I myself am experimenting with that.
@@cfoster6804 Yup!
I trim once or twice a year! This is because I only trim when my hair needs it
Another great video!!! Yes, I have noticed that when I do not trim my ends, I definitely have more knots. Trims are, indeed, important!
These 4c close ups are sooooo beautiful to see.
I wasnât trimming mine regularly and my hair started shedding like crazy! I found a natural hair stylist and she gave me a bomb trim. I lost a lot of length and density due to not trimming. Now Iâll be letting her handle it for me every 3 months. My hair was tangling at the ends just like you showed.
Do you mean your hair was breaking like crazy?
Commenter Number One The thing is it looked like shedding because the pieces were so long. I think the split it went all the way up my hair shaft. Most likely it was breaking but from high up.
@@Tabaitha_Elle how is your hair now? Are you seeing new growth?
đ°đ°đ°Iâve never trim my lengs
Thatâs canât be the reason. Your hair cannot shed due to a lack of trimming.
Our hair grows like our nails. If you want long nails you have to file and clip as needed. Great video!
That's such an interesting way to look at itđ€đź Never thought of that before; very insightful
Wooow!! When I saw the hair I said to myself thatâs beautiful hair and itâs so thick,... and thn I saw the face of the woman attached to it...blown away! You are gorgeous!!đ„đ„đ„đđŸđđŸđđŸđđ
I used to trim a lot and it stayed the same length. Then I started trimming once or twice a year and my hair grew super long... I'm not scissor happy at all.
âHell to the yesâ lol
I'm in there about every 6 weeks and take off only the stragglies and the SSKs (1/8th in.). This stops my hair from fighting itself and damaging itself. It retains length. I'm about 1 inch from waist length.
ShaunieBNaturalista I feel like Iâm forever three inches from waist length
@@ilovesesshomarusama716 I hear you. That is about hair care. Whatever you're doing is good enough to get you to 3 inches from WL. I was there in the spring of this year and started using henna and leaving my hair in twists for 4 to 5 days at a time. It made a huge difference and I've retained inches since then. You need to change something.
This is amazing. I thought I was dusting but Iâm really trimming lol every 3 months. I trim probably half an inch off and Iâm not sure of results yet but my ends look healthier.
The timing is perfect. Iâve been thinking about going natural. Your videos are really helping me. Thank you!
THIS is so helpful!!!!! Finally a real video with a girl whose hair I can relate to! đđœ thank you!!!!!!
I love doing my friends' hair. And your videos help me get better and better. I'm happy, my friends are happy. Honestly, thank you so much for your help.đ„°
Thank you SO much, you're a gem to the natural hair society!!! So glad you mentioned your IG, I have been missing these tips!
i just trimmed my hair yesterday after two years lmao, had to cut off 6cm which is sad but my hair feels so much healtier and looks waayy better
Thank you for sacrificing your ends to teach us. Much respect đ
I love watching such a scientifically informative video from somebody with proven results. Great video!
This video was right on time because I was just thinking if I need to trim my ends or not...you rock
Your hair is just beautiful! đ ~ the work you put into her care & maintenance is really paying offđđŻ ~ thx for all the wonderful tips you share
Love your videos. Youâre a straight shooter and not always trying to sell me something but I honestly come to your videos to LEARN about my hair. Thanks for sharing đ
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER VIDEOS!!!! They always give me EXACTLY what I need. Facts, based on science and experience! LOOOOVVVVEEEEE IIIIITTTT!!!!
I see green beauty, I click! Donât care what itâ is about, I know I will learn something! Love you. And thanks for the all the information you provide
My favorite hair channel đ
What a treat to see you on here with your hair styledâŒïž I get lazy with trims and end up having to do more even though I know I should trim every 3/4 months too.
I actually need one now and was contemplating just oiling my ends and keep it pushing. But to reach my hair goals I know I must do better.
Omg yes ! Your hair is on point and look how healthy and long your nails are!
Your hair is wonderful! A true testament to your knowledge.
This is so on time. I LITERALLY told myself today I was going for a professional trim. I started trimming my hair myself since going natural, but it's hard for me to tell at times what needs trimmed. I realized I wasn't moisturizing like I should, so my hair could be super dry...working on that. But hopefully this professional trim will get me back on track! Thank you for posting!! đ€
CZcams recommended your video to me today via email. Iâm so happy I found you, cause I only watch videos of natural hair researchers rather than product influencers. God bless you. Trims work, Period!
Thanks for experimenting on your hair to show the importance of trimming one's ends. By the way, your hair is beautiful!
By far, you are the oooooonly natural hair expert that I trust. Not only do I appreciate how you get right to the point, but you elaborate on the chemistry and from documented evidence! Youâve helped me in so many ways battling with alopecia! I appreciate you, girl!!!! Congrats on the baby!!! đđżđđżđđżđđż
Yes girl! I had to do some videos on this too when I learned this the hard way as well. Thanks so much for sharing. đđđœ God bless you sis.
this is what happened in my hair journey and i always blamed my hair, i reached mid back length but with tons of breakage and ssks at the ends and i got so frustrated i cut off my hair, as i was cutting my hair i noticed how freely my hands could run through my hair and then it all hit me: i hadnât been trimming at all since my transitioning phase, so yeah i cut of my hair and i have a twa now and iâll remember to trim because itâs so important. im not gonna do a specific trimming schedule , iâll just trim it whenever my hair shows any signs (difficulty detangling my ends, ends getting snagged in combs, fairy knots, etc etc) and now im gonna retain my length and im sure my hair will get back to mbl in 2 years if i stay consistent. im gonna keep my hair in a protective style and smother hair grease on my ends to preserve and nourish them!
Did the same experiment myself for 6 months...the knots were something else! Keeping to 4 or 5 months between trims from now on.
Always look forward to your videos. Your hair looks amazingly healthy. So pretty. Stay blessed đ...xx
Thanks for sharing am going to try out trim maybe once in 6 months and dust every month. I use to be afraid of trimming my hair because I feel is making my hair shorter. God bless you
Come through wit da truth boo đđŸ One of the best, weâll explained videos on this topic!
Amen! Not to mention all the time you save on detangling and amount of product you keep. People don't understand why their detanlging sessions are so brutal and time consuming meanwhile they haven't trimmed in a year. Never gonna make that mistake again! Split ends also messe with your definition and moisture retention.
Check these CZcamsrs/stories too; these are the people that do not put scissors to their hair or they stopped because they no longer need to i.e. indigenous strandz hasn't trimmed in about 7 years or so.
List of non-trimmers:
Indigenous strandz
22 century natural woman
Basara arabs (Chad Africa)
Mbalantu (Namibia Africa)
Yao women (China)
Myself included unless I find a knot that I can't get out (rare); there may be more but I can only think of these right now.
Yesss I been enjoying more videos from you. Thanks for the update on your hair. I think my biggest concern with triming is feeling like I cut to less or to much. Twisting n trimming the ends work for me.
Great tips. Iâm a believer in trimming and have no fear of scissors. As you said in a previous video, hair grows from our roots. I spent all of 2017 rocking a tapered fro and guess what, my hair still grew. đ
I was just thinking I sure could use another video from green beauty and then u posted yesssssss ! Now should I look for weekly post that would be so great
Wow. You are super dope for doing this! Thank you for the authentic content!
That's exactly what happened to me last week. The last I trimmed my my hair was in April. I usually trim in December and April and dust my ends once every 6-8 weeks. Once I realize my flat twist-out was getting tangles as I'm taking it down I knew I needed a good trim.
Your hair, and you, are gawjus. OMG, I know we always wish for what we don't have and I know you put in major work but Lawd ha mussy. Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Nice to know the difference between dusting and trimming! I dust as needed each wash day (once a week) and rarely trim. I used to trim once a year and my hair is certainly healthier now.
I search n cut the hairs I see in the front. I trim the back and crown. I do this about every 60-90 days when my ends start to feel really weathered and crispy. Great video! Thanks for being our guinea pig!
Iâm a new subscriber and Iâve learned a lot thus far. I was referred by another CZcamsr. Iâm glad I did!!
YEEEEEESSSS! I so needed this video. Thank you GreenBeauty!
I need to do trims more often.. and set an actual schedule. I'm blow drying my hair soon so I'll take advantage of that. ALSO thanks for saying that "all" knots can't be eliminated and only maintained instead...bc I mentally go crazy feeling for these strands and feeling guilty for not finding them all ESPECIALLY from the middle of my hair to the back.
If your hair is already healthy and you take good care of your hair trims is not necessary. Once a year is fine. Also a key is keeping your hair up
I dont trim mine for religious reasons. But your hair is absolutely beautiful! Another amazing video.
In box braids I like to not split in to sections when beginning a braid. I like using the two synthetic pieces and my natural hair as the third (middle) to braid. that way I donât have much detangling to do after a take down. I like to go back after a month and take my hair out one by one and cut off anything that is supposed to be there like you mentioned, fairy knots. Spilt ends also then I rebrand each strand while adding liquid oil and some smell good. The next go round of braids I notice a huge difference in my hair. Less build up and fizz and breakage. I still follow my loc method in braids too. This helped my hair grow out longer than I have ever seen in my lifetime.
Woah that's a lot of hair you're trimming, some of it looks healthy too
Your hair is absolutely beautiful!
Thanks so much for the video it was so helpful as far as when I have to trim my ends keep the videos coming
Beautiful complexion! You always have the best videos!
Your đđœââïžis beautiful. It's a true reflection of your inner beauty.Loveđ watching your videos,they are knowledgeable and informative,makes you want to keep a healthy hair regime. Taking time out to help others achieve healthy hair is a blessing.đđœGreat job sisđđ
Thank you sis đ
Very very helpful!! especially all the tips on knots
Thank you, I trim my hair every three to four months also.
I love your channel!đ§Ą
Can you please do a series on skincare đ„ș
I just overtrimmed going crazy seeking out every knot and split. Smh. I know with curly hair, it is inevitable to have some knots so I'll stay on top of them like you do đ
All these posts!! I'm loving it
Just subscribed to your you tube page. I'm amazed at your videos and have learned so much already! Keep up the good work - btw, you are beautiful and have beautiful skin & hair!
OMG!! Your hair is everythingđ
Thanks girl just trimmed my hair !
I used to dust my ends every two weeks and boy did my ends look thick and healthy! I'm going to start this again once I get my haircut nice and even.
I have to relearn again when it comes to hair. I've totally fallen off the track. My hair is a hot mess, but I love it! :0)
This video blessed my life because I commented on your post about it đȘ
Great video! Gotta get rid of the ends to see progress in the long runđđœđđœ
I donât trim or cut or dust. My hair is thick and is now butt length.
I don't cut since October 2018 and don't wanna cut this year but I needed to trim around June. Can't wait to reshape my hair next January
Dang!!! Your hair is sooo beautiful sis đ
My lifesaver you are, just after JESUS. I trim my hair 2to three times in the year. My hair is not long, so every trim is a đđđ, but i keep on it, and i am experiencing volume. So you just give me much courage. To keep on even when i see my hair getting smaller.
Thank you! White looks great on you:)
Thanks for sharing. Very informative.
Informative as always!! Thank you!đ
Wow! Thanks. This make a lot of sense.
You look amazing! Girl what are you doing? Help us out đ
Thank you so much đ this question has been at the back of my mind for a while now thanks for answering it!
You have my name lmao
đ
Great video. Will you do a video on the best scissors to trim natural with?
Hi Green Beauty. I love your channel. You're very concise and extremely helpful. I was wondering, what's your opinion about black seed oil please. My friend is suffering from hair loss after having ringworm. Her scalp had never been the same since and I've heard that black seed oil is good for growing back hair. Many thanks.
Hi green Beauty thank you for this video I just love everything a video that you put out!!!!
This is so informative. Thank youđŻ
I'm just starting to grow my hair out. I'm working on a trim schedule. This video was very helpful! I want to try the onion juice recipe. Can you do the onion juice recipe and real protein treatment on the same day?
Loved the video!! Thanks. Do you have a video on how you trim your ends. Do you do it before or after you wash your hair? After you condition? Before you style? Please advise us.
I dust constantly and it doesn't affect my length retention. Its still getting longer (MBL currently) It also looks better when I wear my hair out cause I don't have straggly ends. My hair stays moisturized longer but I also keep it in twists as my daily style and rarely wear it out. My wash day is easier because I have fewer knots and tangles.
Good information as always! Thank you!
Iâm scheduled for one today. Thanks đ
Wow this video is amazing because I didint know if my stylist cut my hair too short I think she may of gotten a little scissor happy but itâs good for the long-term process of my hair and Iâm in it for the longrun
Thatâs exactly why I cut my own hair. A hair cut is not a bad thing, itâs just better when you keep control of it.
Absolutely informative đ
Keep on keeping on
I haven't trimmed my hair in 4 yrs, since my Big Chop. When blown out, the back of my hair is just past bra/ mid back length , & the front is at collarbone length. I usually wear two strands twist for 3 months, then twist out for 3wks or till next washing. I may do a blow out/flat iron in the fall for like a month, but it took me 2yrs b4 I put heat in my heat. My hair "trims itself?" in a wide V shape in the back....Anyway, I did a blow out/flat iron about a month ago & was thinking to trim my ends for a more polished look. Thanx for video.
