23 Mnths Pst Rlxr: Transitioning Hair of the day: Braid n Curl

[007newnew]

He was right! Your hair is beautiful like that! Strange enough, the most compliments I get on my hair from guys is when I wear it big! Why this video didn't show up in my subscriptions? *smh* I saw one of your videos in my "watch later" and that lead me to this video thankfully. Feb 25th? Okay ;o) I should pick a date that I'm gonna get my henna tattoo LOL!

[Tinkaoeslady]

I love this and I think you found is your new look.

[missthis897]

@kthename08 Thanks a bunch =)

[kthename08]

@missthis897 your welcome

[nph136]

Lovin the big hair. I know people just dont what to do with you and all that hair. Work it Gurl. Work it and welcome to the world of BIG HAIR. It looks wonderful on you and BTW you have beautiful skin. it glows.

[missthis897]

@nph136 Thank you im loving it. It actually keeps my ears warm LOL.

[blenellchaney]

Yeah especially on the edges. I take a nail file and make it smooth so it won't rip my hair and keep it moving

[missthis897]

@blenellchaney LOL Thats a good tip. Thanks for watching.

[TheBlackCoCo]

Your hair looks really gooood! And yes I can see the shine :)

[missthis897]

@TheBlackCoCo Thank you so kindly! Im excited abt the shine. I may have found my magic mix LOL

[lush4real]

i got the same comforter n blow dryer lol.........great video :)

[missthis897]

@lush4real Wmart is the Bizzz LOL

[natrlchallenge]

I have trouble braiding. Do you have any tips?

[missthis897]

@natrlchallenge im not the best myself LOL I dont really have any tips except for making sure the 3 strands are seperate. You can search YT on basic braiding.

[dvery1]

How you deal with the hair shedding and breaking while stretching for so long?

[missthis897]

@dvery1 Keeping my hair in low manipulation styles, twist have been my style of choice. The breakage will happen but you can do things to combat so much of it (protein treatments, moisturizing etc).

[dvery1]

@missthis897 Than k u sis. God bless you!

[Bre0320]

I was just looking at that same dryer the other day in Target. But I didn't get it because I wasn't sure that I would be able to get a comb attachment on it...and then you pulled out the comb attachment! I will certainly be heading back for it now... By the way, big hair looks great on you!

[missthis897]

@Bre0320 Thank you. I think its a great dryer. Not so sure abt the attachment. Some ppl said the attachment melted when they used it so im not sure its so great afterall (the attachment)

[LuvinWhoGodMade]

Beautiful!! Just Beautiful!! Lovin that "big hair"!! :)

[missthis897]

@LuvinWhoGodMade Thank you so much!

[miz22c1ark]

LOVING your your hair an Ur hair looks really short but, I know its not lol!!!! Ur skin looks Amazing an I love ur earrings =-)

Did u get a Nu camera??!

[missthis897]

@miz22c1ark Hey lady! Thank you very kindly! I actually did a minichop earlier this month so my hair is shorter but its longer than it looks here. Yes maam I got a kodak the quality is a little better LOL.

[thecreativelady]

Loving the big hair. Wait till you big chop. Men will definitely notice.

We DO have the same blow dryer. I have not had any luck finding a comb attachment. Next time I'm in Fred's, I'm getting that attachment even though you chipped a tooth. LOL.

[missthis897]

@thecreativelady Thank you so much! According to some comments the attachment will melt =/ so it may not be a good investment plus the teeth (Im so mad lol) BUT if I find one I will definately let you know and you keep me posted as well.

[biggirlsneedlovetoo1]

Is that QVC on the TV?

[missthis897]

@biggirlsneedlovetoo1 Yep I think that was QVC I watch is here and there LOL

[SexiiTina12]

You look soooo pretty with the big hair!!!!! i absolutely love it!!!!!

[missthis897]

@SexiiTina12 I thank you so kindly! I was suprised but I loved the results of the humidity help LOL

[divabrownsugar2010]

I love it look very nice girl you rocking that hair

[missthis897]

@divabrownsugar2010 Thanks a bunch =)

[sashlav04]

This is definitely the BEST style of your transition!!! LOVES IT!

[missthis897]

@sashlav04 Thank you kindly!

[EbonyCPrincess]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS! This is your look hunni! I LOVE it! To death! How could you NOT love big hair when it looks like that! It is sooooo pretty, making me think about transitioning after seeing such lushness! Lovessss it!

[missthis897]

@EbonyCPrincess LOL thanks SIS! =) Be careful what you say (wink wink) it could come to pass LOL.

[TraNaturally]

I'm loving your big hair too!! Very pretty! I was the same way...I initially wasn't comfortable with big hair on me. Now I can't get it big enough.

[missthis897]

@TraNaturally I know it really "Grew" on me literally LOL but its something I will have to get used to.

[MsChanteJ72]

And trust, you will definitely know when you're ready to BC...you won't be able to think of anything else!! Lol

[missthis897]

@MsChanteJ72 Hey lady! Thank you so much for the encouragment! I think im ready I have gotten soo used to transitioning that im going to miss it (if that makes sense LOL) but im excited about the newness. The dryer came with the concentrator I will have to do more YT research on the tension method. LOL

[MsChanteJ72]

I'm so loving your big hair!! If you decide to take the comb attachment back, you might want to try a concentrator nozzle instead. You can using it with a brush or comb or the tension method.

[MsYorkman]

I am so loving this style on you! Really beautiful. Big hair suits you. I bit the bullet and bc'd at just short of 17 mos. post last month. When i get a little length, I will be trying to do something similar.

[missthis897]

@MsYorkman Thank you so much! I was shocked that I love it but im excited about the new bigness LOL Congrats on your bc and your New journey!

[levikatt44]

I love your hair---it looks so healthy & big! :) CUTE!!

[missthis897]

@levikatt44 Thank you so much =)

[platinumchick10]

Before you even said anything in the video I said to myself that your hair looks "big and fluffy". I love it!! My baby niece had a head full of hair, lost it all, and it grew back. When her hair was gone she asked me if it would grow back "big and fluffy" like it used to be. I told her it would. Now, her auntie (me...lol) is going for big and fluffy...that's my thing now...big and fluffy hair in honor of my niecey poo. I'm also transitioning. Your hair looks great! And men do notice hair!! :-)

[missthis897]

@platinumchick10 Thank you so kindly! Your story is so sweet! She is lucky to have such a great Auntie. Im a new fan of the big and the fluffy LOL. Good luck with your transition.

[SexyToria]

Superrrr cute!! Big hair looks great on you dear!!! :)

[missthis897]

@SexyToria Thank you lady! Im sure it will look great on you as well (wink wink) <.<

[KLT828]

You will be surprised how many men do notice hair, the first thing my husband and his brother and father look at on a woman is her hair and if her hair is busted they laugh and talk about them all day long. lol

[missthis897]

@KLT828 Hey there!

I know right! I was suprised that he noticed. I see him a few times a wk and he never commented until I wore it like this.

[itskree83]

yes your hair is beautiful. Love it.

[missthis897]

@itskree83 Thanks a bunch =)

[mnwankpah]

Do the chop when you are ready...the only disadvantage I found in chopping too early (18 months) was the length! But as far as the volume/thickness of my hair - I was AMAZED! I just keep thinking I should have done this YEARS ago! Anyway, just enjoy the ride!

[missthis897]

@mnwankpah Thanks for your encouragment.I think im ready its just im a little scared of the relearning of my natural hair but im excited at what I will learn from it.

[ethansmom091]

The Comb Attachment Is Very Cheap I Have One...If You Use It With High Heat The Comb Pieces Will Bend Fast Lol But You Get What You Pay For!

[missthis897]

@ethansmom091 I really appreciate that! It was hart to tell in the packaging I was more excited to find an attachment that actually fit. I have decded to take it back and get my $2 back LOL.

[leigh4health]

Your hair is beautiful as usual.  I am actually transitioning ( for the second time ) because you and a couple of other youtubers have made me want to do it without a big chop. I am 10 weeks post and am excited for the change. I was natural before but now I handle my hair differently and I do not plan on big chopping at all. I have gone as long as 6 months post before texurizing so we shall see how it goes! Thanks for the videos of your journey!

[missthis897]

@leigh4health AWW im glad I played a part in your decision. I just wanted to document my journey. In the beginning I didnt know I was transitioning but I wanted to capture it in case I decided to relax and do a long stretch again. Good luck on your journey. I know you can do it and just know it can be done. Patience is the most important tool.

[PneumaB]

Oh and your hair is cute!

[PneumaB]

I have that blow dryer... I have a different diffuser though... One that is a little bigger and has a deeper cup...

[missthis897]

@PneumaB Thanks lady!

Hmmm...Does the deeper cup give better results?! I have to make sure I can use it first LOL

[lustrous08]

LMBO at you and them comb teeth! I sent my comment before your vid finished! lmbo

[missthis897]

@lustrous08 Thanks so much. I had forgotten how much natural hair expands but i love it. Im MAD at this attachment and im taking it back for my $2!!

[lustrous08]

I'm loving that BIG hair!! I'm glad you have come around. I can't wait to see that twist out in 31 days!!

[ieattofu68]

My favorite pic has 2 broken teeth on it.....

[ieattofu68]

You look gorgeous...you are such a sweetheart....amazing hair...so healthy and pretty...

[missthis897]

@ieattofu68 (BLushing) Thank you so kindly =)

[imani16]

how long is your hair now after you cut off the relax ends ?

[missthis897]

@imani16 I havent cut the ends yet. Feb 25th but its around shoulder length.

[667tazmania]

Love ur braidncurl! If u think it's big and full now, just wait til u don't have the relaxed ends weighting ur natural hair down. Now that I've just done the BC, I can not believe the volume...btw, as excited as I am 4 u and ur bc, don't do it if u r not ready-ready even if its what u originally planned. I planned just a year but I'm glad I waited til I was comfortable with the decision. U will know with all certainty when its UR time.

[missthis897]

@667tazmania I was thinking that!! I may have to find my face once im natural LOL. Thank you for the encouraging words. On the daily im ready but when I think about the relearning my natural hair again I get nervous im excited to see whats to come.

[MiscellaneousAB]

earrings are beautiful!

[missthis897]

@MiscellaneousAB Thank you! =)

[brownnbubblie]

I have that dryer and really like it because of the cool option. One thing that annoyed me is after using it for awhile the words faded off. I think it is because of the product.

[missthis897]

@brownnbubblie Thanks for the quick review. I read like 50 reviews and vids before I purchased it. I feel good about it.

[NURSELICI86]

I love your hair like that. It's cute! My boo met me with straight hair and now I'm 14 months post... he gives my big hair the stank face :( it's discouraging but after he's gone the curls shall remain!!!

[missthis897]

@NURSELICI86 LOL @ Stank face but I totally agree. Your hair will still be there long after he is gone. Is is you or your hair he loves? 2012 is my yr and im claiming it for me...and my hair. =)

[TheGpmdesigns]

I know Big Hair is my favorite as well. So cute....I agree about men making comments we can change it up daily.

[missthis897]

@TheGpmdesigns Thank you. Yep they tend to notice the differences LOL

[1057pumpkin]

Big hair is pretty, sexy and chic. And I think your hair has it going on. Also, I love to wear my natural hair big sometimes too.

[missthis897]

@1057pumpkin Thank you so much. I had forgotten natural hairs ability to expand LOL but I love it.

[23sml]

love the hair. btw, I'm finally cutting most of mine next week.

[missthis897]

@23sml Yaay! im excited for you. Let me now how it turns out! I KNOW you will be beautiful.

[pbm11386]

This is just a little heads up w/the comb attachment u have .... Well I have a revlon dryer 2 tht I just pick'd up frm walmart and I want'd a comb attachment 2 so I pick'd up 1 like just like urs and when I went 2 use it on my hair it melt'd the nozzle of the dryer :( but the big hair looks great

[missthis897]

@pbm11386 MAN!! Thanks for this! im taking this thing back and gettin my $2 back LMBO! I guess I was overly excited that it actually fit. I guess the search continues! I REALLY appreciate the heads up If you find one please let me know.

[MyPureBeauty10]

Your hair is soooo beautiful :)

[missthis897]

@MyPureBeauty10 Thank you so much sweets =)

[virtuousathena]

I really like how fluffy it is! I think it's funny how people dont understand how much our natural hair expands. Love the updates, keep em coming :)

[missthis897]

@virtuousathena Hey Sis!

LOL the funny thing is I had forgotten how MUCH it expands but I quickly grew to love it.

[jashabutta]

Big Natural Hair rocks!!...:)

[missthis897]

@jashabutta Thank you I totally agreee =)

[leshahine]

LOL...I can't believe the tooth broke on your new comb attachment!! Love your hair. I am going thru the same thing trying to decide if I want to BC when I reach 2 years in June. It is not an easy decision at all! I love my length but I also love my natural hair that is getting longer and prettier and thicker each day. What's a girl to do...

[missthis897]

@leshahine I know right!! Im mad at that!! Im thinking i want to return it from reading some of the comments of the ppl that have it. =/ Its bitter sweet for me, I want to do it but its like letting go of your past (kinda). Just follow your heart, thats what im going to do =)

[TheBlessedmomof3]

Awww, it looks beautiful (and so do you). I'm loving this look on you! I really need to give the braid/twist & curl a try on my hair! You're a natural beauty :)

[missthis897]

@TheBlessedmomof3 AWWW(Blushing) Thank you! It wouldnt take much work for yours to be super fly. You must give it a try!

[JamCanGurl]

Cute hair and nail polish color.

[missthis897]

@JamCanGurl Thank you. I also resolved to put my polish to work in 2012! Im going to wear it more and enjoy it LOL

[ahall98]

I love the hair! The braid and curl is my staple transitioning style. The men and women were complimenting me all day the first day I wore it.LOL! Girl,you know that comb wasn't going to make it. I don't even bother with those things anymore. I bought a Willie Morrow comb attachment off Ebay for $10 (I think)and whatever the shipping was. That is a sturdy comb and won't be breaking anytime soon!

[missthis897]

@ahall98 Thank you so kindly! Im thinking i want to return it from reading some of the comment of the ppl that have it. =/ but im definately going to look into the one you suggested.

[tamoniva12]

Your hair is so cute.

[missthis897]

@tamoniva12 Thank you SIS!

[ItsMeEbonee]

Your hair is gorgeous. I don't think I have ever commented on your videos so I tell you now that I love your personality, very warm and genuine. Take care.

[missthis897]

@ItsMeEbonee Thank you so kindly! I really appreciate the love. =)

[sweetfm2008]

Beautiful Hair!!!! I love it!!! Do you have the receipt and can you exchange the comb attachment?

[missthis897]

@sweetfm2008 Thanks sis!!

 Im thinking i want to return it from reading some of the comment of the ppl that have it. =/

[jnaturalez]

Loveee the big hair...one of my favorite styles especially during the summerr...n as far as the comb attachmenttt make it workk girlll...I would've been upset too tho ><

[missthis897]

@jnaturalez Thank you lady! I cant wait till the summer when im all natural I just hope my hair behaves LOL. Im thinking imgoing to return the attachment and get my $2bucks back LOL

[jnaturalez]
