We call it natural hair journey for a reason. Because it really is a trial and error and each one of us has to put our own time in and get to know what helps us flourish! Is it really just about hair?? No it’s not but for this videos sake we are keeping it on hair care. Best of luck on your journey! See you soon😘

I won’t pretend as if embracing my natural hair was the easiest thing, BUT this truly is a journey, and once I began acknowledging God in everything I realized I was lying to myself and if you can’t be honest with yourself…🙄 that’s bad. Embracing my natural hair and seeing His likeness when I look in the mirror, God really made me like this on purpose! He didn’t make any mistakes, so what am I missing??
I believe it’s finally clicking for me 🥰
If you keep God first you’ll be beautiful inside and out ❤️ love you all, my family in Christ

Excellent video, Sis. Protective styles are a scam. what are we protecting our hair from???😅😅.... I wash 2/week and i mostly do wash and goes and braid/twist outs. My scalp is clean and that's all that matters to me. Thanks for sharing❤

“Am I protecting my hair or the style?” NUGGET. I also learned so much about my hair through having locs for 3 years. Wearing protective styles with synthetic hair broke off my fine hair. It’s harder to moisturize my hair with the synthetic hair in the way and the synthetic hair applies tension through squeezing my natural strands.

Your journey is so relevant to me, especially #3. New subbie 🤭💕

I agree about protective styles. My hair thrives better with weekly washes and occasional wash and gos. I had a setback and now back to washing and deep conditioning weekly but will straighten with a steamer once a month to check my ends.
So far, my density has increased, my hair is longer and my hair is getting back to how it looked years ago.

You should still be moisturizing and washing your hair in protective styles!

Thank you for the video. I’m curious— you mentioned you had locs. If you don’t mind me asking—how long ago? Did you cut them and start over with your loose natural hair or comb them out? I have locs now and thinking about cutting them to go back to my afro.

Dis you used ai to edit your video? Because a lot of effects are happening out of nowhere and it's a little distracting
