• Natural Hair Journey
Your hair is gorgeous! I remember watching your big chop video and I can't believe your hair is this long already! 💕🇯🇲
Thank you so much for watching!❤️
You would not believe how fast I clicked on this video, you have been my inspiration!
Thank you so much for watching ❤️❤️❤️
I found that hair has a 4 year cycle. During that time there is going to be a time when your hair grows a lot. The key is to know when the heavy grow part of it happens and not cut it during that.
Your hair looks bomb! I actually love the curly fro look over super defined ! Im about 2 years and 6 months natural and my hair has definitely changed it’s so hard for me to get a super define Wash and go now ...(but I don’t mind). Time flies though I’ve been watching since the beginning
Thank you so much! Isn’t it crazy how time flies!
It grew so beautifully!! ❤️❤️
Yeeesssss! This video has DEFINITELY motivated me!! I am 1 year and 7 months aiming to hit my 3 year! It's so fuuuunnnn lol! Your hair is booomb😍😍
Congratulations on your journey!! Thank you so much for watching mine! ❤️❤️
I am absolutely obsessed with your hair omg! You make me want to wear my natural hair out more but I’m not super comfortable with it yet bc I’m used to wearing a wig lol 🥴
I remember watching your one year post big shop video and it was such a huge inspiration to me, that I big chopped my hair too. Seeing your journey has been an amazing inspiration, please do not stop the updates. You are doing well 😍, so happy to see you and your hair thrive and😍.
Just buzzed my hair and im soooo tempted to get a wig😔...pray for me yall lol
And that’s ok to feel like that! It’s all a new change and you are not use to seeing yourself like this. If you can, try to hold off on buying a wig and embrace yourself. But do not restrict yourself from wearing them. Just don’t relay on a wig to boost your self esteem. You got this!
@@Fashionarily Thank you so very much for your encouraging words and for sharing your journey with us.💖
My hair is buzzed as well in late September 2019 and I’ve been wigging it sis lol. Maybe this summer I’ll wear it out.
Love how detailed you are in your videos
I just cut off all my hair accidentally-on-purpose and I love watching your journey... we have the same texture and density. and I think our hair behaves the same.
It’s very interesting to know that texture changes, glad to know this because I kept giving up during my awkward stages getting relaxers. But this time I’m not giving up, your other video inspired me so I went bald in December 2019.
I just got bald too on 12/29/19! Let's do this hon!! Best of luck to u in your journey. 😊
Hey! It's been 3 years since you left this comment -- how are you holding on?
😍 shaved mine off in November can’t wait to get to this length
BrownBeauty NaeNae I cut my hair in November to
This really gave me hope, you are such an inspiration. I have to do a big chop and I've been crying but imma put on my big girl pants and do it
It looks like your porosity changed too! But girl my texture has changed sm too, I used to be able to use any moisturizer for my hair and it was fine but now my hair is so picky
Thank you for this video ! Gives me hope for surviving all stages of growth !
My nape side broke off too.
Your crunchy is beautiful!
I love type 4 hair
It is so gorgeous 🥰
I haven’t fully finished the video but I had to stop mid way to say your video gives me hope. I shaved all my hair off 2 days ago because I was tired of the breakage and it was not growing. Watching this video and the one before just made me so happy because I have the straight/curly hair texture and in my eyes that was bad because no one else had it. I never saw youtubers talk about that type of texture and it was so difficult to work with my hair because I didn’t understand my hair so watching this video makes me hopeful that I’ll be able to watch this and pick up a few tips and learn what’s best for my hair once it grows in.
I love love love this video I love the transformation I love the chop and everything about the journey.
Giiiiirrrlll now you need to prep me up for courage so I can chop away since my hair has thinned out since I put a perm in my hair.
I totally agree, some hair grows better with little to no manipulation. I wanted to do my hair in different twist outs etc as I grew it out but it would seem to never grow pass a certain length. After wearing protective styles for a while and moisturizing, I found my hair would flourish. Great video! Your hair is beautiful!
I adore your hair journey!! It is so refreshing to see how well your hair grows, as well as your ups and downs with your hair journey. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it!❤️❤️
you have beautiful hair sis
Thanks so much!❤️❤️
Hope you and your son are well. NYC got hit hard.
So glad to see you uploading again. Please do a video on your two strand twists.
How are you caring for them?
Products used?
How often do you wash your hair and leave them in?
Thanks so much!🖤🖤🖤
Thank you so much for watching! I will definitely do a video on that!❤️
A Fashion Designer Blog You know I second that ✋🏾 Would love to see a 2 strand twist video!!
India T Just to answer your other questions real quick, the twists would last about 2 months and I would retwist the perimeter every 2 weeks for the 2 months. To keep my hair fresh I used water, aloe vera juice, and a little apple cider vinegar throughout the 2 months. I followed a this lovely lady on CZcams. I didn’t follow her advice to the T but this is were I got the idea. She didn’t shampoo her hair but I still did every 2 months.

A Fashion Designer Blog thank you so much! ❤️ this is why we love your channel so much. I will be waiting on a video and thanks again 😊
The collar on our jacket, coat, and etc. can cause breakage at the nape. Try putting a silk scarf around the lining of your collars. Thanks for the video btw ❤️!
I really love your videos! I am thinking about shaving all my hair off. My hair has been badly damaged by perms and weaves. I am nervous about doing it. But watching your hair journey has given me courage! Thank you so much! God bless!
love it...your hair grew so much
Your hair has grown beautifully. It feels like yesterday when you cut it short wooww
Excellent video! It's so interesting that even our hair has it's own personality per se. It literally exist and functions on it's own sometimes. Also, that plaid blazer is so chic!! I'mma have to search the internet now to find one!
You are such an inspiration! I just found out that I have breast cancer and my hair is shaved. This is so amazing! I needed this..
Hey beautiful! Thank you so much for watching! There is divine beauty in a shaved head woman. I pray that you see the beauty in yourself during this time. 😘❤️
Thank you for the tips and kudus to you for taking such great care of your hair 😄
Thanks so much!❤️❤️
Your big chop to your one year video was one of my inspirations in ma natural hair journey so it was a surprise to see your three year growth! Its grown so much. Your hair is so beautiful! You give me loads of hope as i am just 6 months into my journey.....Keep it up. xoxo
Thank you SO much for these videos! YOU inspired me to shave my head this January. 5 months later I seem to be at the same growth rate as you were, not to mention that we have very similar textures. These give me hope and knowledge about the future of my hair. Thank you once again. :)
Your hair has grown so much girl looking healthy and beautiful to
Your hair is lovely! I am 6 months post relaxer and I have 4b hair and a bit of 4a round the nape, but I am sooooo tempted to chop, having the two textures is so annoying! I have a bit of traction alopecia at the nape which puts me off big chopping yet as I want my hair to be long enough to cover it up a bit. I have applied for a job which is going to be working from home due to the Covid-19 so if I get it, I will defo big chop as I won't have to go to work or style it too much! I am so tired of usuing my conditioners on the relaxed hair as well, feels like I am just wasting money and my relaxed ends have become so limp and stringy. I can't wait to be free!
Yasss, you are amazing Cherelle, such an inspiration!!! Your hair is gorgeous 😍😍
~Angie
New subbie. You are my inspiration! I just shaved my hair off. ❤️
You look great with short hair!
Missed seeing you here! Happy New Year!! Your hair is still beautiful and yes, it is so thick and full. Great video,💞
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
4 year post big chop?
Wooooowwwww I completely missed that a new year came! Lol! Thank you for this reminder!
Your hair looks beautiful! How long are you growing your hair?
Protein treatment will help those curls bounce back 👌🏾👌🏾
When you did 2-strand twist using your own hair (no extensions) how did you keep the twist from unraveling & becoming frizzy? How long did the style last?? Absolutely ❤️ your hair!! The Fullness, Curls & Health!!
Thank you so much! I made my own flaxseed gel and put the gel at the ends of the twists to freeze the ends. 😃
The twists would last about 2 months and I would retwist the perimeter every 2 weeks for the 2 months. To keep my hair fresh I used water, aloe vera juice, and a little apple cider vinegar throughout the 2 months.
A Fashion Designer Blog Wow so simple & no “products”! Definitely trying your technique!! Thank You!!!
I literally just hit my 1 year mark & living vicariously through your hair journey 😊
NiCole Sky Congratulations on hitting 1 year! That’s major! Please check out this channel! I mentioned her in my video titled “My hair is falling out.” I got this technique from her. I dont follow it to a T but this is where I got the minimal use of products while doing two strand twists. 😄 czcams.com/video/hl2XrauaLaQ/video.html
Thank you soo much for sharing your journey! You documented well and it’s very inspiring! Did you trim your ends at all during those years?
You look gorgeous💗
Wow! Great video and advice!😊 What type of conditioner did you use? Deep conditioner? My 'kitchen' fell out too...
Loved this video! Can you show us what products you like to do your mini twists with?
I was so excited to come across your content I have the exact same hair down to the straight hairs that stick out! I did the big chop one month ago. Could you please tell me your hair type?
Update please❣❣❣❣
Girl ! the same thing happened to me when I took off my braids my texture changed my curls are more defined now .. sigh , I still prefer my fluffy fro .
06:34 c’est tellement beau 🥺🥺
Yes your hair is bomb and grows fast!!!
I remember commenting on “kinky straight” because my hair is the same. The longer it gets the straight pieces will coil with the coily ones but I still have straight pieces that will stick out 😒
Yes I remember your comment! I feel your pain so much! Especially since its growing longer😓
Your hair looks good. Have you clarifying your hair for build up
I clarified it 2 times using shea moisture clarifying shampoo. When I kept my hair in twists, I used very minimal product so there wasn’t much build up. I only used, home made flaxseed gel, castor oil, and aloe vera juice. That’s all!
You might benefit from a protein treatment or henna mask...ref to the texture
Beautiful!!
You have beautiful hair.
I got a buzz cut about 2 weeks ago n I'm always wearing hats cuz I hate having short hair 😔
Absolutely beautiful👑
Ooh, you are so pretty. Your low hair cut was pretty on you. Maybe, this sounds creepy but you have a nice head. Lol. Oh, your hair is so pretty and your journey is an inspiration. Maybe, those corn rows hate you. Lol
Beautiful 😍 🤩
Very cute love it
The back of my hair is short like that too!!!
Love the growth, but I think the loose texture and lack of bounce back was your hair saying "I need a protein treatment".
How long would you keep your twists in?
Your hair is so thick I can't imagine how long it took you to do your two strand twists lol
Hair Twins 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
What type is that ?😍😍
Is your hair 4b?
I have the same hair type just unsure
Yep! Hey 4B sis!
Yayyyyy ❤️❤️❤️
I know u said you didn't do anything, but when they did your braids did they BLOW-DRY or PRESS your hair? for your texture to change?
Good question but nope not at all!
what if i start form 0 but often use relaxers is that bad guys?
Seu cabelo é 4c?
How often did you trim your hair?
Would you do it again?
I sure would! However I’m currently on a journey of growth. I would like to see how full and long it can get without any cutting.
What conditioner did you used
So beautiful 😍
Thank you so much my fellow beauty!😍
💋👏🏽
❤️
Wearing hats will pull your kitchen out.
