Healthy hair journey : 1 year of progresses (slide show - by request)

[dvery1]

What did u use to get longer hair? It looks nice.

[nunaavane]

@dvery1 thank you, but actually it is a 4 years experience, there was not 1 special product but mostly good techniques

[dvery1]

@nunaavane I see...Tks for replying...God bless you.

[cherrypops3]

YOU WELCOME.

[cherrypops3]

i like all your videos you did a great job. i mean you did a awsome job with your hair.

[nunaavane]

@cherrypops3 thanks i am glad you watched

[cherrypops3]

i'm natural but i'm thinking about going back relax because my hair seems to grow much faster relax then it does natural.

[ladyofvirtue37]

WOW!!!!! beautiful!!! thats awesome

[nunaavane]

@ladyofvirtue37 thank you

[sherniceps]

im so jealous...my hair is fine...and my nape breaks so easily....im so fed up :'(

[nunaavane]

Répondre à cette vidéo...  don't be ! get on this hair journey with me it will grow

[misskristianah]

tu es passée de SL à APL en 1 an?? c'est ça??

[nunaavane]

@misskristianah euhh oui 

[JillianHarrison]

I've heard soo much about you, and after watchin this video, I could NOT believe your hair grew that fast!! They say the average hair growth a year is 5 inches..that being said, whatever you did/doing to your hair, is RIGHT(you know obviously, lol) I'm at your same length when you started, now I have hope for my hair, if you can do it, I'm sure I can :],

[nunaavane]

@JillianHarrison awwww well thanks a whole lot ! obviously EVERYONE can do it, perseverance is the key :-)

[blissfullyme1980]

You gooooooo girl!!!!! nice video and growth:)

[nunaavane]

@blissfullyme1980 thanks a lot

[marcijaici]

I have to watch this video every week so i dont give up! u motivate me!!

[nunaavane]

@marcijaici yaaay ! ! !

[niqueeify]

Wow, that was amazing, your hair grew really fast. And what type of relaxer do you use? and how often do you relax?

:)

[nunaavane]

@niqueeify i relax everytime between 12 & 14 weeks post relaxer, the max i go is 16weeks. I use ORS relaxer for normal hair

[sheautiful]

so what kind of relaxer did u use and other hair products?

[kisakye92]

I think you have beautiful bone structure; you resemble some of my African relatives. Are you African?

[nunaavane]

@kisakye92 yes i am :-)

[THEICEBEAUTY1]

i LOOOOOVVEEEE ur videos!!!

[nunaavane]

@THEICEBEAUTY1 thank you

[LisaSnicket]

have you ever had perms?

[nunaavane]

@LisaSnicket if "perms" means "relaxer " yes i have been relaxed over the last 10 years

[LisaSnicket]

@nunaavane yes i ment relaxer. so a person doesnt have to cut their hair off after getting perms, in order to grow long hair?

[nunaavane]

@LisaSnicket you dnt have too

[temickab]

u inspired me :)

[nunaavane]

@temickab thanks a lot for the support girl

[TheModelchick1000]

@nunaavane at 2:39

[LuvLemonade09]

Hello. I heard about the tea rinse and I want to know how often I should rinse my hair with the black tea.

[nunaavane]

@LuvLemonade09 i do mines 1 x week, or maybe 3 x month...

[kikikrazii1]

Hi, i was wondering when you got ur hair relaxed what type of oils/shampoo/conditioner did u use? im thinking of mane n tail but im using africas best rite now..

[nunaavane]

@kikikrazii1 at this point i used what was in the relaxer box, ORS relaxer, neutralizing shampoo & conditioner

[Nellyhot1]

girl pliz took u more than a year to grow ur hair that long...who u tryna lie to...u black ur hair dont grow that long

[nunaavane]

@Nellyhot1 yeah, thanks to watch my 1st video here on youtube to see where & when i started !

[April48914]

@nunaavane It seems like you got a hater. You're hair is beautiful. @Nellyhot1 everyone hair doesn't grow as fast as others. She got good genes, then on top of that she was actually taking care o her hair properly.

[nunaavane]

@April48914 hey April, thank you so so much, yeah i really think taking proper care of our hair is the key :-)

xoxoxo

i just don't bother with haters, lol

[April48914]

[karmen7800]

Hi, I wish I had done a hair journey on yt but mine is vey similar to yours. After being inspired by Ateyaa I started my regimen June of 2008 and in August of 2009 my hair was so long and healthy. When I attained good results it was back to my Design Essentials til I noticed my hair was not looking as healthy as it was (nothing against Design). Then I tried Nu-Gro but it didn't do for me what it did for some. I've been back on Aghogee since April 2010 and again I am happy. So thank u 2 !!

[nunaavane]

@karmen7800 hey sweet, thanks a whole lot ! ! i really appreciate it, keep on doing what you do that works, you'll love the results

[BeautifulSince1993]

good job

[nunaavane]

@BeautifulSince1993 thank you :-)

[nunaavane]

[azucarmoreno28921]

Thanks so much for sharing! My hair is fine like yours, and I have been on my hair journey almost a year, and - even with a lapse - I have noticed increased in thickness and length! I have struggled with air drying, but I am going to keep trying because you're right, it does make the hair thicker and healthier...Thx again for sharing!

Félicitaions,ça me donne envue de commencer à prendre soin des miens. Merci pour tes vidéos^-^

[nunaavane]

lol, thanks girl

[PHONEPEGGY]

beautiful growth nunaa...im inspired keep it up

[nunaavane]

hey girl, how r you doing?

tks a lot;-)

[nunaavane]

hohoho, i love challenges, loool

[shecutess]

In the our father prayer Jesus told us what are some of the things we should pray for. Hair is not on the level as anything he mentioned. I think God would be more concerned about helping the poor and sick, but hey they are still around so how come IF he answered your prayers for longer hair he has not answered their prayers? Just a sober thought for today...may you have peace and a lovely day.

AGAPE...

[nunaavane]

tks for this thought

be blessed

[shecutess]

hey NUN this comment will be different than what you used to. First let me congradulate you. YOU DID IT!!!!! and still growing a real testament that women of color - if we just take care of our hair it will retain length! Thanks for the inspiration.

I can't refrain from saying though that do you really think that the God that so many of us pray to for help with more serious problems and yet they persist he would actually be concerned about the growth of hair. Not in my opinion.

[nunaavane]

i think God hears all the prayers, i think when a mom is asking for her kid to be protected He hears her, when a girl is asking for her fiance to come back home i think God is there by her side, i think there is no small problems, as the bible said it "Those of you that are tired come to me i will take your burden" He never said there are some biggest pbs than the others, that He only wants to take care of some of them, HE SAID ALL !

God is love for EVERY SINGLE THING in our lives

[VioletSauce]

Your growth is so amazing Nunaa. You are truly an inspiration. Keep it up! God Bless!

[sweetfm2008]

That's Right, Nunaa!!! It Ain't Over!!! You Go Girl!!!! That's wonderful progress & a healthy journey too!!! I'm loving your videos...You know I'm one of your biggest fan!!! :)
