Hey lady! This is great! You seem to be in pretty good shape, so I assume you work out. What do you do with your hair when you exercise? I'm transitioning and am hoping to do braid outs for most of my journey.
if you're having trouble transitioning, you can use clip- in hair extensions to gain some length. I've been transitioning for about a year and a half now and honestly, i'm not struggling...
Hello, I am new to You Tube. So, I hope that I am sending my question to you correctly. I would like to know what products you use. I was watching your videos but I do not know if I missed the video over the products that you use. I have not had a perm in six months. So, I am trying to get some ideas on some products to use. Thanks for your assistance.

@MsSlytiger I'm the same way... my hair gets tangled up rite where the two textures meet. I would've thought it would be the other way around and be hard to comb thru the new growth.
@TawanaNicole I partly agree, I think the natural part is a HUGE issue in the black community. Too many of us want to conform to what is deemed beautiful THINKING others will mock our hair. Many blacks respond entirely differently when they c long locks and when they c long silky indian hair for example. Other communities see beauty in our hair regardless of length if it's well groomed. Many blacks still don't believe kinky hair is equally gorgeous, even with equal length, becos of the media.
I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE THAT QUESTION!!!! What are you gonna do with your hair -_____- . Even if i did explain it too you would you understand? And i guess my mom swears i make my info up because I'll be telling her stuff and she'll tell me im wrong??? When she hasnt worn her hair in its Natural state in over 20 years!!
@WeirdAlysa omg completely agree! &when i mention cowashing, first i get looked at sideways then i always get "so how is your hair gonna get clean?" -_- i'm just like -- TRUST i know what i'm doing. lol
smh soo true.. wen i first was going natural my aunt was like girl u need 2 get that relaxer..i was so frustrated nd was like "I DNT WANT 2 and i dnt need it !!!" now a year into my transitioning my aunt saw me last week and said she LOVES my hair and i made the rite choice :) im happy i didnt listen cuz i never was going 2
Can you tell or list which products to use or what works well. Because you do have to change products since you have to treat the relaxed hair as if it was natural.Ex: shampoos, protein treatments, styling products...
This is a very good video. Thanks for the encouraging words. The best quote was: If they don't get it now, they will eventually get it. Like you said don't worry about it now. Cause people will eventually understand. it just takes time. We all can agree. Peace and God Bless.
I love this video! I'm not a transition... Been natural for almost a year now but it's true what you say. Ppl won't get it at first but eventually they will. I had that problem but once I went natural and got a hang of what I was doing the same ppl love my hair and wish they had the courage to do the same.
@TheCoilWhisperer Case and point: this past weekend I hung out with some family rocking a braid out. When I walked through the door everyone started fixing their over processed relaxed hair... I even got a "your hair looks very becoming" from one person... she's older so you gotta take what you can get. But yeah, ppl aren't going to get it at first but they will eventually.
shedding and breakage are different...healthy people shed normally not excessively and the hair strand will hv a white bulb at the end...breakage is due to damage and happens at weak points on the strand such as the line of demarcation
I have been transitioning since 2008. My hair was tailbone lenght relaxed, now it is waist lenght because I have been cutting it little by little! No big chop for me yet!More than half of my hair is natural now, and I don't have any breakage. My hair is type 3c and 3b in the back. I can't wait t'il all my hair is natural!
Lol! Nice :) I really love you youtube video's. They're such an inspiration for people like me who are trying to go natural.I've already shown your videos to some of my friends and now i've helped to convenced them to start going natural. You're the best!
p.s. and i've been trying to do the pincurl thingy but it's just not working. i think im sticking the bobby pins in my head wrong. What's the right way put them in??
I defiantly have a hair crush on u lol.. The say you have to be bold to big chop which is what I did I couldn't deal with transitioning. I respect and admire women who transition for a long period of time because I know it takes patient, which I don't have!!
Have you already shown your hair just after the shower?
I mean, after a wash'n'go, I'd like to see your hair before the braid out! What is the texture of your hair, very shrinked like kinky hair? or curly like 3b-3c hair, or wavy???
Im at the very early stages of transitioning like 2 months in and most people family and friends not even my mom supports my decision so thanks for the advice!!!
-watching any of your videos is like Hair porn at its finest, love ur hair!!!!
lol @ go look at hair porn!! lol Hell thats what I am doing now by watching you!! Hoping, wishing and praying that my hair will look half as good as yours do!!
Thats all I hear is negativity about my hair!! I just laugh and think that in a year or so they are gonna be asking me advice on how can they go natural. You hit it on the head about what family and friends will say!!!
I love what u say about negativity! my boyfriend loves that I'm going natural but my friends are very negative telling me that natural hair is crazy...I say just wait!! lol but thanks for the vid. love it!
you are so so so lovable. Yea i live in china so there is no hair like mine here.. it is tough sometimes.. but i love what you said "if they dont get it now, they will eventually" haha.
well said; keep doing what u doing ;) oh hope all is safe and sound with you since the crazy twister attack! yikes.
Re the comments from family u are so right! lol. My Sis n law was always digging in my head while I was transitioning saying.."girrrrrrrl, what is going to happen? and what are you going to do? lol" she would have me scared, and wondering what I was going to do. lol..but now she praise my hair ALL the time. Same exp with my hubby.. and now he Loves it.. So yes they will eventually get it. Like Chime sd..we have to stick to our guns the entire process...
Thank uuuuuuuuuu I don't manipulate my hair when its dry. I don't know why so many naturals do! I swear u make so much sense & u keep it short & simple.
Great Video Chime! I have a quick question....How often do you get your hair trimmed now? I just got a fresh professional trim today, and I really want it to keep growing because I want to retain as much length as possible and was wondering how often I should keep this up. I was thinking every 6-7 months.
I agree!! You can't worry 'bout it now! I always tell the negatives (people talking negative) that I have a goal! U have to stay focus and be determined. I have people ask me when I am going to perm it LOL!!! I just laugh and say NEVER! It's okay because they do not understand....now people are loving my hair and it is only at collarbone when streched LOL!
Lol "Go look at some hair porn or somethin" LOL. You so silly but that's exactly what I do when I get frustrated w/ my hair. It really makes you feel better :)
My favorite part: Love God, love yourself, and love your hair :D
