You are such a breath of fresh air. It is nice to see a classy woman on CZcams that carries herself with such femininity. Thank you on behalf of all my relaxed and classy sisters.
Sophia Burt agreed!
I dye my hair black (since my early 20's , 37 now) and I'm relaxed. my hair is now grazing bra strap length so it IS possible as long as you take VERY good care of your hair. I don't think bleaching is a good idea though.
17 years for growth is not normal
I started crying when I heard Reese...my furbaby passed away two days after Christmas last year and it still hurts so terribly. I heard Reese whimper before you picked him up and my heart jumped because I immediately thought of my little guy. It was lovely to see Reese🥰
luckyducky224 I am so sorry for your loss. It hurts just as much as losing a human. When our border collie Jasmine died, my dad didn’t speak to anyone for a week. I can’t even think of losing Reese without tearing up. My thoughts are with you. So sorry for your loss. ❤️😔
@@StyleDomination Thank you so much; you are very kind. I am throughly enjoying your channel. Thank you for sharing yourself with us--it's like sitting with a friend. ❤
Another tip for not getting a relaxer burn is to just stay out of your hair for about 24 hours up to your relaxer appointment. I used to get burns very easily but after I started doing this, I can sit around with relaxer in my hair like the real MVP. So i usually get my relaxer on a Saturday therefore I won’t manipulate my hair after Thursday night/Friday morning. Haven’t had a burn since!
Greats tips, please do a rollerset video soon😁
Lina S Hey Lina! I’ll try! My mom is great at roller setting my hair. Maybe I’ll get her to do it... lol
Did you mention types of relaxers and hair porosity? That’s a big one a lot of people forget. For instance high porosity hair types won’t use the same relaxers as low porosity hair types
Thanks for all the great tips, I've learned so much from your videos. Enjoy your new puppy! My baby(dog) passed away this morning, but she lived like a diva!
Oh my goodness. My heart bleeds for you. I’m so sorry...
straightening routine, straightening routine, straightening routine,straightening routine, STRAIGHTENING ROUTINEEEEEEEE! 😂❤️
Been slacking on my hair care game dom and now my hair is matted as hell 💀 i needa do a fast catch up with ur vids and to feed ma brain with dom knowledgeee 😁
Lol anywho amazing vid ❤️
I've been so busy at work I haven't been linking in much! Great tips as always
That's ok, Cheryl! Make that bank! LOL! Talk soon!
Thanks for the tip about working out prior to a relaxer. I always try to get a workout in before my appointment. Never again!
Great tips! I agree that less heat and more rollersets are absolutely the best for our relaxed hair (I need to try more often but those rollersets are just so time consuming). Also, I’ve just started working out hard core so I will definitely take your advice and give it a rest a couple days before I get a relaxer. That story scared me 😱. Thanks for the warning!
Reese is adorable, love your style, thanks for the tips
Jackiec Hylton Thank you so much! I’m obsessed with him! We are best buddies. Lol
Thank you 👏 My hair is natural & I found this video to be VERY informative for all textured hair types. Reese is so cute!
Newly natural girl watching your videos out of curiosity. Wish I discovered you when I was relaxed!
Ichimatsu Matsuno Ha! Thank you, Ichimatsu! Keep on watching. I’d love to say you as part of my community. Enjoy that natural hair, love. It’s beautiful!
Your makeup is especially pretty today. Thanks for the tips. So right about the color /relaxer don't. My sister is bald from doing that and she may have permanent scalp damage.
I second this. When my sis was relaxed she bleached and dyed her hair. And it fell out in clumps.
s williams Oh nooooo! That’s terrible!!! I’m so sorry for her. I hope her hair/scalp is recovering!
Ichimatsu Matsuno Oh God. That’s terrible. I hope she’s ok...
Your puppy is sooo stinkin cute!! Also dont use any oils like tea tree or peppermint the week before a relaxer, it will burn. Great tips,
You have included a lot of great information in this video that I’m sure many will benefit from! Great video!😊
Deidre D Thank you, Deirdre. Hope you are well!
I’ve had brown hair all my life and I really wanted to colour it black...guess I’m stuck with brown since I can’t colour my relaxed hair 😭
Your puppy is so cute 😃
HI! You can colour your hair! Opt for a semi-permanent rinse!! Just no bleaching....
Thank you sooooo much! I haven't worn my hair curled in a while although my husband likes to see little body in my hair but most time when I did wear it down I love it very straight I like that look, thank you so much God bless you💕🙏
Sapphire Hey Sapphire! I love volume too. My husband loves big hair! Lol!
My hair was nearly as long as yours and so extremely healthy for years. I started going to a hairdresser in 2013 and she pressed my hair, blow-dried it and flat iron it and damage my hair. I asked her to never do that again and when I went back she did it again! I said stop! she thought I like my hair very straight no I like wearing my hair without curls big freaking difference. After 3 years it's just now coming back to life
Cheryl AR my hair dresser kept cutting on mine I just stopped going it took my hair three years to grow back as well because it was so damaged and blunt on the ends
Me too! Many hairstylists these days only know how to blow dry and flat iron and burn hair. The art of healthy hair and rollerset hair is lost! I’ve learned that sometimes it is better to take care of your own hair.
Great video as usual and thanks for the tips and seeing Reese makes me miss having a dog...😞 Reese is so cute and I know he is a joy! My hair is so overdue for a relaxer that I'm scared to get one because I'm going to hate seeing the breakage and my scalp is so sensitive that I have to take Tylenol or Aleve but your hair looks so good. I showed one of your instagram post to my husband so he can see your hair and he said call your hair stylist and I said give me the money guess what he put it in my acct within 5mins now that lets you know how overdue I am for a relaxer..lol 😁😄😀
Love your channel!! Can u please make a video, how to take care your hair while working out. I’m going heavy with my working out routine, now that I’m relaxed I need help lol.
Thanks for all your tips. Reese is adorable.
I rollerset my hair with sponge rollers in the night and I find that helps protect my ends as well as allow me to comb my hair in smaller sections which leads to less breakage. I also try and keep my hair up. I watch several CZcamsrs and their hands are always running through their hair/weaves which makes me cringe, because I know that is bad for their hair. Reese is just Precious!
I hear ya. I have trained myself to stop doing that. I used to, especially when I was just so happy to have grown it to that length. And thanks for the kind compliments about Reese! He's too cute!
Loose braids are low maintenance styles that keep the ends tucked in
Great tips, hair goals!!
@styledomination Thank you for a great video. Your have excellent delivery and you are so classy. I'm so hapy to have found your channel. Do you know if the Joico moisture products contain protein? My relaxed hair is extremly brittle and breaking and shedding like crazy lately. I believe is due to using too much product containing protein.
Mercedes Gilligan Hi Mercedes! Thank you so much! My subscribers are so classy. I’m so blessed! No - the Moisture Recovery products do not contain protein. Joico does have the K-pak line which is protein-based. You should only be doing protein treatments (using protein products) on your hair once a month. If your hair is brittle, I’d give the protein products a break. Thanks, luv and good luck!
I went bald because I wanted to go bold 😂... will never do that again! Deep conditioning is really the thing to do. I do it twice a week and moisturize my ends everytime it needs it. Might be every night or every other night. I only comb/detangle once a week before the shampoo. Otherwise always in a bun or in box braids.
I have falling in love with your channel! Please continue to make videos because I am addicted to your channel. I have two questions, Do you apply a black rinse to your hair because it is so black and pretty. Secondly you have on a scissor back shirt and distressed jeans on in one of your videos please tell me where you purchased those items!
Great advice and tips😊. I also learnt how to treat my relaxed hair. I have a pixie cut which is just has high maintenance sometimes as long hair. Reece is sooooooo cute. I have a dog also 😍
Excellent Tips! Greatly appreciated!
Sunshyne3640 Thanks for watching, Sunshine!
i promise you the reason i come to your channel is just to get classy tips.you are very classy and i try to steal some tips here and there.i know its weird but if you dont mind.could you do a video on how to carry oneself or be classy or something.i really do think you should have a masterclass..because you carry yourself in a way that does not seem forced.its effortless without being snobby.and as usual thank you for this video too.
I just hate getting a perm I put it off as long as I can. I have super thick hair and just can’t bother going natural. My mom put a perm in at 12🙄
Your puppy is totally cute!!!
Joy Roberson Thanks, girl!
I have learn something new today! i love it and also he so cute:)
Thanks, babe!! He's so adorable! He's so naughty too. LOL!
I have just subscribed to your channel. You and your hair are so beautiful. I have just placed an order for the Joico moisture retention line at Ulta due to the reviews (including yours). My hair goal is to reach BSL-MBL. I'm halfway through CBL-APL. I'm natural at the moment but I am thinking of going back to having relaxed hair because I like wearing straight hair. Your videos are so informative. I wish I had this info 30 years ago. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Wonderful - tips, looking forward to more. I've too learned the hard way about perspiring before a relaxer ... man o man - just took the one time! ... and Reese is soooooo precious! aaaawwwww - luv bug! (belated happy birthday!)
I saw this video before I got the relaxer 2 months later I wish I listened to you😭
I absolutely love your videos! Very informative. Thank you!
Mine has issues natural and when it was relaxed. I don’t have dry scalp anymore but dry hair and I’ve started deep conditioning and moisturizing.
Hi Dom!!! I absolutely love your channel. With the change of the season (yayayaya, we are finally getting warmer weather), do you have any tips on ways to keep your hair healthy or best products to use during the spring/summer months?
Dominique! Thank God I found you lol. Ok, so I am in love with your blog and all the good original content/info on there. A couple of months ago you wrote a blog about a perfumish deodarant you liked (Not the Saje) and I promised myself I would buy it. Soooo now im ready to purchase it but I cant find it on your blog... Please help! Thank you Fabolous Gal!
What Relaxer do you Use please?
Thanks for the awesome tips! I've noticed on your IG that you're from Ottawa? Could you recommend a hair stylist ?
Ani89ottawa Hey fellow Ottawan! I love Gloria at Hairworld at the Merivale Mall! Mention me when you go!
Love your hair!
Could you do a vídeo showing us your night routine?
What are your thoughts on Japanese straightening/thermal reconditioning hair?
Kari T No...I’m s little worried about the harsh process...
I just got it done. And a Japanese Hair Straightening or Thermal Reconditioning compared to a relaxer is so much better than a relaxer. No burning whatsoever. They even wash your hair right before the treatment. Your hair will look and feel better than any relaxer. I have had relaxers in the past for many years, my hair always felt great at first with a retouch then it starts to feel stringy. Stopped relaxing and wanted to go natural and accidentally found this alternative. Your hair will be soft and straight and smooth with no frizz. You can flat iron if you want or let it air dry straight!
You go only every 6 months, so the price ends up being the same as a regular relaxer which has to be done about every 2 months . I am about 1 month post my Japanese thermal and it still looks and feels great and super healthy. Shedding is minimal to nonexistent. You do have to wait about 6 months for a retouch.Stay tuned to find out what happens in 6 months 🙄
Make sure you find a professional stylist who is an expert on African American hair. That is very important. A relaxer and this process do not work well together. You have to be either be natural or have had several months of relaxer grown out to do this process. Do some research ahead before committing to this process. Most of the women with typical African American type 4c hair who do this, their hair grows past bsl or longer without too much effort. My hair length is a chin length bob to almost touching my shoulders and I can't wait until it grows even more with this hair process, so it looks so healthy even with a shorter llength.The hair has a lot of body and shine. You can still do braiouts too.
Highly recommend it!
I love Reese (sp?), such a cute dog. I have some gray hair and I am also relaxed. Does Gloria have a particular brand of semi-permanent rinse that she likes to use on hair that is relaxed.
I enjoyed your video as usual. I’m not the best with hairstyling and I never get a good finish when I use rollers, so I’ve given up on that. I also broke one major rule, I got permanent highlights, back in Feb. So far my hair is ok though. I do have some breakage in the front but that’s been an ongoing problem since last year, gonna try J’can Black castor oil.
Can u make a look book video featuring a capsule of a week of fall outfits?
Love the makeup
Shakita James Thank you! In case you want to know: Estée Lauder Foundation in Rich Chestnut 5C1, Makeup Forever eyeshadow in M608, MAC Cosmetics Blush - two of them layered - Raizin and Whole Lotta Love, MAC Ruby Woo Lipstick. Thanks for watching!
Style Domination thank you!!.
I'll have to find those on amazon or ebay. Don't think they sell those in my country. P.s. I'm from Jamaica
I also like indigo or henna as natural colorants.
s williams whenever I use indigo and henna I lose my hair so bad never again! my hair love commercial colours like dark & lovely 😍
s williams You know what? I’ve been meaning to do a video on henna. I want to try them but my stylist says it will really dry out my hair. 😩
Yes it is very drying (or at least it is for me). I had to stop using it on a regular basis, but I will use it maybe 3 times a year. I like the tint that it leaves my hair. Indigo doesn't dry my hair so much, but I use it about the same as the henna.
@@StyleDomination yes, it does dry it out and it just does not look as nice as a semipermanent or a rinse.
Any tips on a good shampoo and conditioner.
I watch a lot of your videos! How often do you straighten your hair with a flat iron?
Color it first then wait 2 wks for relaxer right? I'm natural just thinking about it 😏
Can you make a what you eat in a day Video or a what’s in my bag Video?
Can you do a Video on winter skin routine
Very helpful!!! xx
What kind of moisturizer do you use? And what oil do you use to seal?
What satin hair scarf do you use?
An old one I chopped up from a satin nightgown. HAHA!
Like you my hair is quite long and I used to roller set it took me forever and one day I found that lady channel vicky j and it has changed my life.
SOOO CUTE!!!
What size or color roller do you use? I need to roller set my hair too
Blue Beauty when I rollerset, I use the biggest I can find. One stylist had some that were as big as Coke cans. Amazing. I had some great ones. I think they were 2.5”!
The biggest I find are the gray ones and those are too small for my hair
