    I know exactly how receiving hateful and spiteful comments from someone who I really trusted. It hurt and I just had to distance myself from that lady. I was natural for eight years, in those eight years I was always looking unkept. I couldn't manage my hair, even tried sister locs at a time. I really just got tired of always having to do too much. My hair was and still is so thick and full.. the only style I could rock was a top bun and I was just tired.
    Thank you for this pep talk ...

    Dena girl the hate is real especially if you get a lot of views on a video. I am not sure but I can’t say if I have ever seen hate comments on natural hair videos. If only people knew what chemicals are in our food products and other everyday cosmetic product, they wouldn’t even bother hate on relaxed hair. I hope your relaxer day goes well and congratulations 🎉on your CZcams growth road to 5k. You are doing an awesome job at sharing your relaxed hair journey let the haters take a back seat 😂❤

    I love your channel. I'm natural and thinking about going back to relaxed. I think both natural and relaxed hair are beautiful. I honestly think that many of the hateful comments come from people who don't like their hair. There is a difference between people who don't care for relaxers vs those that condemn. The ones that condemn are actually the ones struggling with major hair insecurities. I don't know anyone who loves themselves and truly is comfortable with their natural hair that is spewing hate towards women that are relaxed. Basically, don't take it personal Dena. Thank you for all your tips. I've been binge watching your videos the past few weeks:)

    I'm glad I found this video. My relaxed hair is past my shoulder blades, and it is becoming more difficult for my sister to apply the relaxer. She said that my ends were very dry, so we are going to try your methods on my next relaxer. I'm 43 years of age and have tried being natural for about 8 years. I had several different hair textures, and it just became too much for me. Seeing as how I was relaxed the majority of my life. My hair is healthier and longer than it has ever been. And I to use dark and lovely.

    Whenever I wear my relaxed hair out for an extended period of time, my next relaxer includes a cut 😪. I've learned my lesson and now leave my hair curly from the rollerset, only picking out the roots to remove the marks and parts and wearing it that way. Straight hair just had this way of demanding that you comb it all the time for it to 'look good' then brap, I'm half bald 😂😭😪🤦🏾‍♀️

    Ditto on the breakage with the hair down … had the same realization this past week. Had my hair down and was out and about and that night when I was detangling, it was horrible. My hair was so matted and tangled at the ends. And when passing the comb through, i could literally hear the strands ripping apart. 😫. So its back to wearing my hair up !

    Hi beautiful lady. Your video are awesome. Your relaxed hair is beautiful. Do you use regular strength or super relaxer. I've done 2 relaxer last year. Regular, I was under process twice, my end was still kinky. My hair was puffy still right after. I don't know what to do. What you recommend?

    I’ve heard people say you shouldn’t wash your hair before relaxer is that correct

    • @evalaurent5276
      @evalaurent5276 Před rokem +6

      Yes that’s right. When you wash your hair right before you relax it, there’s a greater chance of you getting burns because there’s not a protective barrier between your clean scalp (since you just washed it) and the relaxer. After I wash my hair, I wait at least a week before I relax it, so there’s time for my scalp to get build up on it. Also the day before I relax my hair, I put a grease on my scalp, to have more build up on my scalp. This grease also adds to the protective barrier, decreasing my chances of getting burned on relaxer day.
