WOW, u and I have the exact type of hair. I have to shower with my durag on because my hair will curl up so fast. I sweat in my hair the most too so I hate when its really hot out because its all over from there. when the front starts to curl its enough to ruin my day lol. Also try Olive Oil's Edge Control. It comes in a small can and u can get it from Walgreens and Sallys. This is THE BEST stuff that I have found. The only thing is you have to tie ur hair up for a few mins after applying.
i love love love your video!!! i have been debating on if i should cut my hair into a fade (i wear mine in a press and curl) and its really high maintenance with perms and i want to work out and i will sweat my hair out...etc., plus i think hair is so over-rated being a black girl, so just wanted to say your video really inspired me, YOU LOOK GORGEOUS! you are really rocking the fade, i love and appreciate all the tips you gave and its made me a little bit more comfortable with the idea sothanks
I love ur hair... i'm currently growing dreads, but when i get tired of them i think i'm going 2 try a cut like yours..i'm a little nervous on how it might look
Your hair is really beautiful. I want to wear my hair like yours but I'm nervous about it. My husban actually said he likes your hair and that he thinks I'd look good with it cut that way. But I still don't know...
Loves it!!! You make me want to BC! I use to wear my hair very low! Everything you said is the truth! On another video you said someone told you to grow your hair...I think you look prettier with the low cut, but like you said opinions are like elbows!!! I do hate when people assert their opinions on you espescially the negative ones!!!
Hey, I love your shape up my boyfriends friends wants to shape up my hair, even my sister wants me to get it done because I have a short hair also...well it's grown now since I did the BC...
Wow...not every woman can do it lined in the front...you are pulling it off and you look gorgeous. I cut my hair all off 2.5yrs ago and now have a fro. But cutting it so short was very freeing.
I can see at 5:47 Your face does look thinner and your arms look toned too. Mayn I am so tempted to BC again (Ive never had it faded since becoming natural) but my face is so chubby and I hate how I look with a chubby face and short cut.
You look so beautiful in your fade! I've been seeing alot of girls do the super duper short cut and its been making me think about it. You look gorgeous though!
Sunshinelovespeace! U are definitely THE premier bc guru/first lady of the bc! Whenever I run across a youtuber who has just done or is thinking about doing the bc and is feeling somewhat insecure, I always always always refer her to u. Thanx so much for being the guiding light of self confidence/self embracing/self celebration for ALL of us naturals. What wud we do without u???!
your hair looks SOOO cute like that, sunshine! it really suites your face...not all women can pull off this look, but you look absolutely GORGEOUS! :-)
this is really cute when i was wearing a bc i wouldnt get and edge up or a line because people would tell me when i want to start getting styles as it grows it would be had for my edges to grow but i like how neat you keep it
Are you still breastfeeding? My hair kept falling out or fading out while breastfeeding. I stopped about 3 months ago and my hair is still slowly growing all together. I get my hair done by a barber. THEY ARE PERFECTIONIST. My barber always asks me how I brush my hair so he can cut it in the direction that I brush it. I also get my eyebrows threaded. You are so right with keeping them trimmed and perfect. I am slowly losing my weight with this second child. He seemed harder this time
@ressenycva Yes still breast feeding, trying to stop though! I want my body back. My hair still looks a little thin in certain areas, but with it being so short, I don't worry too much about it.
@sunshinelovespeace take your time breast feeding. I stopped when she was 7 1/2 months. It was so good for her. Yes i felt like a milked cow at times. When you finish and they are weaned off you kind of miss the closeness you had. Weaning was really hard. I had to trick her with the bottle. Trick is to try to wean at night. they don't know the difference. They are so out of it then.
I have been natural for 8 months and I hvae been thinking about getting a fade because I love the look. Its in my soul to get that look, you look so beautiful with your hair.
I was listening to you and following perfectly but then I thought: someone just tuning in would have no idea what you are talking about with all this terminology lol!
My hair has been relaxer free for a year and 4 months as of saturday. I did my first initial BC in August of 2009. I recently (May 7th) cut my hair again in the same exact style as you have it currently. I love it, especially the low maintenance;however,I really miss my hair. It was shoulder length at the time I did the second cut. I'm having mix emotions,which is rare for me. Have you ever dealt with this issues?
@MissLuLuTv When I see women with really nice long natural hair, I do want hair. There are days when I wish I had hair, but those thoughts are very rare.
I think it's normal though to have those types of feelings about your hair, especially since it was so long when you cut it. If you are not opposed to wigs, try one for a week if you think that would help.
I thought about wearing a wig once, but my husband quickly shot that idea down...but wigs are always an option for a little variety!
@sunshinelovespeaceThanks, that is very true. However,I've decided that just for the next month I'll keep it short. And then I'll being on my journey once again to attain long natural heathy hair. Also, I fail to congraulate you on being feature in Essence magazine in April/May. Great job!!
You're so pretty! I'm glad you did a video on this. I was wondering how do other woman maintain this hairstyle. I thought I was doing too much to my hair. I still co-wash and put in moisturizers and what not. And I find myself brushing my hair all the time too! Oh, and I'm glad you explained what the hair cut is called becuz I be so losted. Now I know I have a temp fade! Thanks for the video. Peace : )
I loveeee ur hair!!! lol so do u plan on growing it out soon or are you gonna rock the cut for a while?? lol BTW I put ur vid u did actin crazy with ur other haircut on my facebook pg lol everyone was dying laughing, great vids!
@aaahhhbig10 I think I may keep it like this for a loooong time! It is so easy and I have a lot going on. This works for me....and my husband LOVES it!
@ghmbf ok ONCE AGAIN- i dont kno you and i obviously dont care about you. give up on life and please dont bring negativety to sunshines page because she has nothing to do with ur ignorance towards me. thankyou now go get a clue
I WAS WONDERING HOW YOU MAINTAINE YOUR WAVES.... MY HAIR CUT IS CUT SOME WHAT LIKE YOURS !! I'VE BEEN USING SHEA MOISTURE & PALMERS COCONUT OIL , AND I BRUSH AND TIE IT DOWN AT NIGHT!!!!! I LOVE IT !!! IT'S SO EASY TO MANAGE.
Thank you for this video. Ive been waiting on you to discuss your hair maintenance. I want mine cut like you had when you were getting the sides faded and had hair on the top. Did you go to the barber often when you had it styled like that?
@MittBritt20 When my hair was in that style, I did not get it cut that often. I actually got it cut once into the style and then once again 6 weeks later and that was the cut that made me cut it all off and do this style.
I totally agree with you SheSings and sunshine because I like to keep my eyebrows done...keeps the face looking more feminine, I love my natural hair and I appreciate the tip because I'm over due for a cut myself. (Putting it in my Blackberry as we speak.....lol)
I agree with keeping your eyebrows done when you have short hair. I noticed my eyebrows stood out more when my hair was shorter. The hair and eyebrows frame the face. They definitely can work together or against eachother.
WOW, u and I have the exact type of hair. I have to shower with my durag on because my hair will curl up so fast.
