I love what you said about Hair being energy! The Bible talks about this with Samson and his hair! God told him that his hair was his sense of power!!! Also why I LOVEEE curlsmith products because they have a bible verse on the back of all their products 😍
Amen
"Get rid of the damage as soon as you can" ❤is a great metaphor for life in general.
I feel like scalp health is SOOO underrated but at the same time just as important as the health of your strands if not more important
Thanks again for an amazing video! Honesty is the best policy, and that is what a TRUE influencer is! You just keep telling us the TRUTH and it cannot get better than that! My hair is thinning and yes; that is why I stopped doing my tight buns! My hair doesn’t like it! I’m also learned to know what my hair likes and doesn’t like! And yes; I also agree hair is energy! You are just on point with ALL of it! Thanks again! Stay blessed!
Check your Instagram DM! ❤️
Thank you for the video! And totally agree with everything you said! I had long hair growing up and due to the heat damage and Keratin treatment (which I hate to this day) caused me...I struggled so much. I tried to transition for a while until I did a big chop in 2016 and my hair did grew but not to my desired/original length.! However, I did started focusing health now its just a matter of retaining my length and slowly but surely get my curls shoulder length! I do believe genetics plays a role! Unfortunately, hair growth is not so strong in my family but I'm learning everyday to choose HEALTH over Length.
You're so welcome! Health over length will forever be something I live by moving forward. After getting a chop you really realize nothing is better than having your curls all at one texture and all healthy. I think people forget how much genetics play a role on growth. It's easy to try to force products on people, but that can only do so much. & I remember the keratin/heat damage days. I'm happy we're both on the other end of that ❤️
Forever grateful that my hair and me found you 💕…. Being follow you for over a year and follow almost all your tips.. and my hair looks 💣!! You are a Real Influencer that’s why you make a big difference. Keep shining ✨. I really enjoy your videos ❤️!!
Yesssssss, I been waiting for this video!!!! FYI, LOVE the shirt!!!!!!
“No babygirl” ughh I LOVE YOU, you’re amazing !!! 💙✨
This was a brilliant explanation and so engaging. Definitely gave me some good tips to take away and It never clicked for me that hydration through drinking water would help but it makes so much sense!!
Hair goals 😍💜
Everyone’s journey is unique and special 💗 I also wish I had cut my hair sooner. Focusing on health instead of length is the most important thing I think you can do for natural hair
Thanks for sharing your story ! I’m sure it will inspire some that are discouraged in their natural journey because it is. For decade with didn’t t know how to take of our hair. For many relaxing their hair was it. With CZcams and people sharing their hair journey in beginning in 2010 (relaxed or natural ) it has giving us opportunities to share and learned new ways. It’s ok to be inspired but everybody has different hair and it’s important to accept that.
That's honestly my sole purpose of being on here. If I can inspire even just one person, i've done my job! ❤️
My hair is at your 2019 big chop at the moment. See why I love your channel very HONEST.
You inspired me to get my 1st curly cut!
WOW!!!! 😲 How your hair grew faster and longer. He looks beautiful. Periodt 💞😍😍💘💯💖👍❤🙏
Now one of my fav videos
Thank you for your advice! 😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾 your hair looks great 👍🏿
I love your hair!! But I’m also interested in how lovely and glowing your skin is. That clean makeup look! Could you tell me what you’re wearing? ❤️
I have low porosity hair so I felt that in my heart when you said use shampoo I have to use it are my scalp would be on fire🥺
Could you please do a video on products that you use to help with a health scalp? Please and thank you in advance! Love you videos.
Thank you for this video, appreciated your honesty in this one and sharing your experience.
I would love for you to do a video on becoming less attached to your hair as you mentioned & the cultural side of it all too. It’s something I’m working on especially as a black female so would love to hear your thoughts x
I'm happy you liked it! I'm learning everyday how to become less attached to it. I think the biggest thing is not being so fixated on length and being open to change. It's definitely hard for me lol but we got this!
@@curleliaYes I'm definitely with you on not being attached to length myself but haha yesss we got this!
Love the tips! What sort of hairstyle works for you when you work out?
I have been a lazy natural for going on 20 years, lol. I blow dry and flat iron my hair all the time. I get no heat damage... BUT, I did get heat damage once from going to the Dominicans. I think they put something suspect in the shampoo and conditioner which made my hair exactly like what u described, lol, curly, straight, curly!!! I did not do a big chop, I just trimmed and did pink rollers until my curls sang again. Like you say in your videos that hair growth is mainly genetics. My hair grows fast without doing anything extra, hence lazy natural. Just cut my middle of back hair again to above my shoulders because it's a chore to maintain. Don't no how u do it and not scream!!!
Omg you are sooo beautiful ❤️🥰
As obvious as it may seem I never really realized how much drinking water can play a huge role in your hair’s health! I love my hair & as much as I dislike water I’ve been drinking it so much more now that I know it’s linked to my hairs health 😂☺️
Water has helped a lot as well not just for my body but also to avoid drinking other sugary drinks.
It helps with everything I feel! Even helps you feel less bloated throughout the day!
Hi, do you put cream or any product on your hair daily? Or when styling?
Do you feel like wash and go’s cause more single strand knots? Also, my wash and go’s no longer seem to last because on day 2 my curls are smashed and look awful. SoI literally feel like I have to re-wet it for it to look good. I believe my hair is low porosity, medium density, fine, type 3c everywhere except the crown which I believe is 4a. Just did a second big chop because it fell out after I had covid. It is back thick and healthy since I cut it 5 days ago but on the shorter side now. Any recommendations would be awesome! I’m watching all your wonderful videos and thank you!!! ♥️🙏🏽
Can you recommend some stimulating oils? And how often do you do oil massages?
This is great advice. Stress is really bad. My Garmin watch ⌚ yells at me if my stress is too high.
Girl same, my apple watch tells me to breathe all the time 😂😂 then I get offended!
@@curlelia 😆 I guess we need to breathe and de-stress.
My number 1 tip is to stop listening to old fashioned family members who don’t see the beauty of natural hair. Those people will make you feel as though you have to relax your hair or you have to have braids or else you won’t be cute. Their negativity will only cause setbacks.
This may be a dumb question but how do you know if your hair has heat damage? Like how did the middle section of your hair look in comparison to the rest? Also your shirt is life!!!
Hi love, I experienced heat damage at one point and I will say that a big red flag is definitely a shift in texture. My curls are more 4a and as I experienced heat damage they would fall as if they were 3c with no mix. The elasticity will definitely change. I hope this helps :)
@@jayjinnelle9640 it does, thanks! Even though I’m new to my natural hair journey, I think I managed to avoid damage because I was lazy with straightening too lol. But I def wanna be able to tell for sure
Not a dumb question at all. You can tell you have heat damage when your curl is like straight and doesn't curl like the rest of your hair. Another indicator is if your hair growing in from your roots a completely different curl pattern from the shaft of your hair (like completely opposite)- that could mean heat damage! You'll definitely see the difference I feel- do you still add heat to your hair?
Biotin make me break out as well! So weird.
I bet not oiling your scalp helped hair growth. Not clogging pores and causing build up.
I've heard mixed review on this! I personally don't oil up my scalp but it has worked for many. Shampooing often has worked better for me!
I like your T Shirt!😅 I can’t stand when people (even friends or family) just reach into my hear…😖
