[yaya2kool4ya]

You make want to try this so bad!

[emsimanek]

my bday is august 6th too!! beautiful hair by the way:)

[mischerokee13]

Wow great results! 

[hatazmakemeshine]

Keratin treatment doesn't straighten your hair all that much especially if you African American, you will see very lil difference in straighness that's why a perm is preferred

[MyzEyeCandii]

your hair is so pretty but i couldnt concentrate . the music kind of sounded like a soft spongebob :$

[ilubB5]

I wish I had hair like yours. Mine is the same length as yours but the texture is different. Maybe I'll cut it all off and start all over... Thanks for the encouraging words at the end of your video. :)

[Aujalove]

congratulations! and omg thank you for posting this. I've been seeing so many natural hair journeys and as much as I applaud them, that's not for me and I felt like I was getting the "go natural" idea shoved down my throat, I love my relaxed hair, I just needed some guidance on how to take care of it. Love your channel, keep posting

[chcharles01]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY..ALL MY LEO'S STAND UP!!!

[BellaKisses029]

[LA30FOUR]

Thanks a bunch! I'm definitely not gonna give up on me or my girls! Its not just the hair we have to love ourselves!

[danger069gurl]

u go girl

[jpaschal22]

Amazing! I've decided to start trimming my hair every few months. I'm also taking a break from relaxers. So I'm truly dependent on scarves and hats. Is there any advice you could give me?

[babygirl35ify]

I hear a lot of naturals say that you should not trim your hair so much...but I found out for me...I said for me...it makes my hair grow faster and thicker...I guess it is like when I trim my shrebs in my front yard...two weeks later they are fuller and healthier than before...That may sound stupid...but the concept is the same...trimming off the old ends is the right way to go for me Yes! I could be wrong...but I don't know...give me some feedback.

[Legenderella]

If you want healthy hair, relaxing it after cutting it would'nt be a recommendation! you should try keratin treatments, not only do they replinish and improve the overall health of hair and scalp, they also straighten the hair fivefold better than relaxers.. you Can't go wrong.

there a bit pricey but not if you buy ones with fewer ounces.

:)

[Riiajanelle]

aww too bad. i guess ill havet to watch this video to hear it lol

[lilbrownskin85]

@Riiajanelle - Or if you have a laptop you should have wondows movie maker on there. You can listen to it on there too :-)

[mawalls2001]

Great hair journey :) Just starting mine and it's a definite new direction for me giving my hair so much attention but I'm wanting my hair to return to being healthy. It's past shoulder length but not as thick as I'd like it to be due to breakage over the years.

[Emptymoon1]

beautiful



[XxTruSelfxX]

You retained length well^^

I'm so glad you didn't give up!

Your hair is beautiful !

I'm a little pass shoulder length for 1 year natural I hope to be arm pit length by year two and I hope you make it to waist length

HHJ to us both ^^ lol

[VeeBee81]

Your hair looks beautiful!! I started relaxing my hair a year ago and it was between my shoulder blades. Since then, it has become thin and most of my hair at the crown of my head broke off down to the scalp Its made me so depressed and sad. Also, my hairdresser constantly trimmed it, so it is a lot shorter than it was? With natural hair you don't have to wash it as often, and I was doing the same routine which is probably why it broke and dwindled. I'm hoping now with care it will recover.

[tazzi2003]

@VeeBee81 Ummm with natural hair, you have to wash MORE often! Natural hair is in desperate need of moisture! That's probably why you're having trouble growing it. Wash 1x per week and add a leave in to your regimen and I bet you see a difference.

[VeeBee81]

@tazzi2003 Well... when my hair was natural it seemed to enjoy not being washed and preened so often. It was mid back length. Since relaxing it, I realised with the change or hair quality, ph and moisture levels, it requires so much more care. It was only a year after I relaxed it that it broke off, because I wasn't washing, conditioning it weekly. I realise this now and I'm trying harder to give it more attention, more moisture and more deep conditioning.

[Fdeshaun1]

@tazzi2003 No you dont. I am natural and I mosturize my hair with water everyday and seal it with oils and can go weeks without washing if I choose to. Its good to let your natural oils build up with natural hair. Chemically processed hair needs routine washing because It has those chemicals in it. But everyone's hair is different.

[came123yahoo]

great job!! It's nice to see more ladies proving that we can have really long hair even with it relaxed. Keep up the good work:)

[misscnr1]

Great progress, i wish u all the best on your continued journey :)

[lilbrownskin85]

@misscnr1 - Thank you misscn1!

[julesstillhair]

Great progress!

[lilbrownskin85]

@julesstillhair -Thank you!

[CHAQUI11]

GREAT PROGRESS!!!!!! you should be really proud of yourself!!

[strictlystarlight]

Congrats your hair looks so beautiful. Im on a hair journey and like yourself, I thought I was the only one that trims my ends twice a year. It does work and your hair still remains healthy. I was always advised to trim it evry 8 weeks. Thanks for the vid.

[lilbrownskin85]

@strictlystarlight - Thanks! I use to trim after every relaxer because thats what all of the other girls were doing at the hair shops. Although their hair looked nice, it was always around the same length through out the year. I learned that if you take good care of those ends, they will definitly take care of you in return!

[TrOyLiN25]

I am natural but still not certain about a relaxer. I have been natural for almost two years and had two chops lol what do u think wait before relaxing or what? And your hair is beautiful by the way.

[lilbrownskin85]

@TrOyLiN25 - Thank you! Although im relaxed and im really satisfied with it, i absolutely admire women who are naturals. It does take alot of work and maintenance, but its very beautiful to see. If you have a tight regimen, products that work, its not interfering with your lifestyle, and you're truly satisfied with being natural, i say keep up the good work and keep going :-).

[kngcess]

Very nice hair growth.

[lilbrownskin85]

@kngcess -Thank you kngcess!

[artistnme4life]

Nice progress..I am on a journey to growing my hair long also.It is nice to see that you have accomplished this and will be striving to continue.I have had a few setbacks also..like u said don't give up!I have to add more oils into my regimen and protective styles.

[lilbrownskin85]

@artistnme4life - Thank you! And dont get me started on oils! You know i love oils! lol. You will do just fine :-)
