(For those who want an overview) 1. So many tight hairstyles 2. Hands in your hair (playing with your hair) 3. Hair rubbing against clothing causing *friction* 4. Leaving hair out (especially during winter months) 5. Back-to-back protein treatments (you need to space out your treatments) 6. Using too much heat (blow drying, flat ironing) 7. Not sleeping in a bonnet or a silk pillow case 8. Continuously slicking down edges 9. Going to the wrong people to do your hair (some aren't delicate when doing hair) 10. Denman brushes / using wrong tools 11. Chemical overlapping. Not giving hair a break after coloring. 12. Choosing length over health. Not trimming the bad ends off 13. Being rough with hair when it's wet (be gentle since hair is weak when wet). 14. Towel drying hair (hair snaps. Use cotton t shirts) 15. Take down protective styles correctly (or build up) 16. Not protecting your ends (moisturize ends, especially protective styles) 17. Neglecting hair when it's dry ( make sure to moisturize) 18. Trying to detangle dry hair 19. Ignoring the fact that your edges are thinning out 20. Over manipulation (always changing hairstyle or trying to detangle )

"another cause of my breakage....I always have my hands in my hair."......*takes hand out of hair, looks around in shame* 😂😭😭😭😭

Damn what doesn't break off ur hair

I don't think people truly realize how sensitive the hairline and edges are. Constantly "slaying" your edges can be so detrimental. I stopped applying gel, combing, and brushing them and I massage my edges every 1-2 days. I'm going to take pictures once per month to track my growth.

* watches video while touching my hair * 😪

i love leaving my hair out in winter time due to the lack of humidity in the hair. My trick was coating my hair and ends with that BlueMagic or pure shea butter. any grease or butter basically. and my hair stayed in tact.

I started losing my edges, because I always did buns with lots of gel and my hair was exposed to a lot of sun. Gotta remember to protect your hair from the blazin sun!! Especially if you from the Caribbean. 😳😳🌞🌞

i love the fact that you support other black youtubers

lol basically trying to be cute breaks off your hair

When I tell you the amount of times I've gone to a hairdresser and they'd detangle my hair while blow drying it, LORD. That definitely contributed to breakage in my hair, like you. Now I do my own hair.

"Oh hell no if anybody's gonna thin out my edges it's gonna be me"😂😂

i am SO guilty of not moisturizing my hair daily it's baaaaaaad. thanks for the tips and i will humbly accept all wisdom you have to offer

Your skin looks really amazing. Can you do an updated skin routine?

Girl I can not give up my buns. It's so easy for work. I never tie them super tight and I always take the ponytail out at night , wear a bonnet, and rub my edges with castor oil. I also do a crown flat twist in between ponytails too for some rest.

I recently got me hair done in a sew in for my senior prom. the stylist SNATCHED my edges. 😂😂😂Gurlllll I couldn't even smile!! I've been oiling my edges to grow them back and I'm noticing results. never again an I letting that person touching my hair. it's either me doing my hair or my mother from now on. Loved your video as always ❤

You nailed it girl. This is very informative and a great reminder.

I needed a video like this. Informative. Thanks girl 😊😍

I equate my love for a youtuber to my need to hear every word. If I replay the intro I heard tons of times (and I do!), then you know it's a fav.

This helped me a lot ,because it’s my first time being natural and I love touching and moisturizing my hair every day so now I know to do more protective styles

i always play with my hair..i can't stop :(

I love these videos!! Keep them coming please!!

i can NOT keep my hands out of my hair. is it a nervous/anxiety thing? anyone able to stop doing this?

Notification squad ❤️❤️

Notification squad!!! ❤

Oh yes! U nailed it, all those tips. Thank you so much.😌❤👌

I heard DAT! I got sick of hair stylist showing NO CONCERN OF BEING SINCERELY CARING! very informative!!!!!!!! love it J

Notifications SQUADDDD

Love the video ! I love all your videos.. I really want you to do a video on how you manage being a student athlete in college it would be very helpful for me as I am a student athlete and hopefully soon to be college student athlete

Great vid sis

Mannnnn... loved this! It really helped with knowing what to do with my daughter. I have 3c and my baby girl is like yours. I’m really working on her edges. My oldest daughter and I don’t have any issues with it. But I’m really working on my baby girl to help her and I’m seeing progress. Her hair is fine, high density and very porous... and beautiful. She’s 4 and I want her to embrace her natural beauty.

Can you please do your night time hair routine and also can you please do a video about what products you use and how to maintain and grow natural hair? Love you by the way

Thank you for these amazing tips

This was very informative! Thank you!

Awe thanks for the shoutout babe!! & you said my name correctly! Lol the "E" is silent

I'm so glad you mentioned you were an athlete! Would you mind doing a video on how to take care of your hair and the certain styles and protective styles that you do as an athlete!? Because I'm a college athlete and I like to weaves as protective styles because braids are too heavy! But I don't know how to take care of my hair while it's in a protective style and I'm sweating everyday. I don't think there's any videos on KZfaq help really active natural or relaxed girls out with what to do with our hair because it is different than not being athlete or as active. Thank you so much!!! I would and I'm sure many others would appreciate it. ❤️

Great video..our hair is so sensitive but worth all tbe pain

Lol I was just thinking about if I wanted to wear a bonnet & then you come with the facts

Obsessed with your hair😍

I’ve never been on to play in my hair or touch my hair outside of wash day. I literally cringe when I see the hands and hair syndrome. Continue to work on that doll ❤️💕💜

Great video! Thank you!

Great natural hair tips! ☺

thank you for the information love the video bless

lol i was playing with my hair when you said number 2

I can't use denman brushes either!

#BeautyGang, I love your look in this video very beautiful && great tips 👍🏾💕

Sister! You're my hair sister. My hair hates Denman brushes too. I thought it was only me since I keep hearing people brag about them on the daily. I do still use them even though my hair hates them to remove those real stubborn knots. If I'm not careful any hair that's out even while my hair is in a protective style will start to dred up. I've learned to love it during bad times like that. My wide tooth comb will miss the real bad knots sometimes.

Thanks for the tips! Can you please do a tutorial on this hairstyle?

Denmin brushes definately break off 4c hair.

Lol girl you were reading me throughout this video 😭 I have noticed a sudden stop in my growth

#9 stood out to me! I've experienced that

I can unfortunately relate to most of what your talking about😂😐 Lawd know I use to jack up my hair back in the day😂😂

I be twerking to the beats in your vid while listening to your hair advice 😅😂😂 #multitaskingwins

You're one of some youtubers I can actually sit down and watch

I do be rockin my curl cap

I stopped applying gel to my edges. Now I just use JBCO or Shea Butter and my edges have grown so much in the last few months.

could you pls do a vid on natural hair care for athletes and how to protect it from the elements? that would be greatly appreciated😀

great video

There's over manipulation and then nightly/detangling/moisture routine. 🤔 I feel like I need to detangle my hair and twist it back each night. I have dry scalp/eczema and my hair is manageable the next day. My hair is also very thick and maybe 4a/3c...idk. At most for wash and go's (which I rarely do) I'll wait a day or two then moisturize/seal and detangle. I just can't handle matted hair. 😅 So...I never really know when it comes to over manipulation. The Denman brush tip though...I might invest in a new detangle brush. I love my denman brush and I feel like its doing the job. Maybe I just to stop lol. I'm still new to being natural (I'm a year and 2 months). I'm glad I found your channel! ❤

Seems like everything can break your hair wow, natural hair is a lot of work

thanks I just recently went and got me some long braids down my back done by the Africans my head was hurting so bad and I knew they were taking out my natural hair I kept that style for five days after the Six-Day I took it out and you're right no more going to the beautician they don't care about our hair they want the money next customer,

Hey girl! So the Denman brushes are kind of funky. When I first purchased mine back in 08/09' when I first went natural I could not stand it.... but now they are really good for my hair. You kind of have to break it in..

It took me a while to get use to loose protective styles (braids and twists

Hair video for this hairstyle !!

I have to use a slick brush for my hair 😩 I’m in the military and have to have my hair and buns in reg... i wish my edges were stronger ..

I need more natural I've been for 11 or 12 years now i love it it's the products i don't use them new products i use old school products i have alot of products how do i wash my hair i liked the 20 reasons for the edges i always use a shirt to dry my hair then i don't comb it when its wet or do i use a hair dryer

You said that a denman brush was the devil for your type 4 hair, I also have type 4 hair, what should I use to detangle my hair from now on ?

Great tips...how long have you been natural?

Just to add on to number 13 comb or brush from the ends and work your way to the top

i am also an athlete so how did you style it because im tired of getting braids for the season

can you talk about how you got your edges back and revered damage?

I remember I was trying to take out build up one day and I was so frustrated with my hair I ranked from were there was build up to to my ends and that whole pice came out it was bad 😬

*Im kinda nervous cuz I just did the big chop I'm already taking L's😬*

I love chazzz is awesome so this was recommended lol

so what would you suggest to use when detangling besides finger detangling

You said Denman brushes broke your hair.. what do you suggest instead of that?

How am I suppose to take care of my hair in the winter glycerin or no glycerin?

what products do you use on your hair ?

BeautyGang💙 stand upppppp

How often do you trim your hair??

During my senior year (I'm about to be a college freshman yay) I put my hair through a lot of strain and now my hair is really damaged. Now I'm going to big chop earlier than expected

"if anybody's gonna thin out my edges it's gonna be me" lmao factsss

You were just like new natural no rules. Lol. You were like I am going to do me.

'Can you say breakage' 😂

Omg I have type 4 hair and I got my hair done too tight and I have a bald patch in the middle of my hair💖💖

How often do you clip your ends ?

I used to use do my edges a lot, but now I only lay down my edges once in a while and my edges are getting really thick lol.

My Hair Came Out In The Middle A Little What Should I Do ?

@Number 15 NappyFu has a way of removing braids that ensures they slide off your strands without breakage. Consistent shampooing and conditioning when braids are on with a diluted shampoo and conditioner in a spritz bottle. I undid and detangled my straw thin twist braids within two hours...length and thickness were retained. Try it ladies:-)

great ⚘

I don't know if I missed it. Did she say how she fixed it?

What's the song that plays at the beginning?

Thanks for reminding to use a T-shirt and not a towel.

Notification squad wya? 💕

Song in the background?

Great video, so basically... don’t touch your hair lol Also either you have an extremely amazing braid out process that works or your type type is not a 4?? 🤔

My mom would take me to get crochets or Senegalese twist from this african hair shop and MAN. Rat tail comb and no detangler... This wasn't a slap at African beauticians and hair shops I just remember that experience. I questioned it, but never spoke up and my mom would go run errands. Just a note: If your beautician don't have hair on the sides or it's unhealthy, you might get a glimpse of how you gonna turn out.

Ugh I can’t sleep on my hair either. I hate it.

Can I have your hair?💖👀🙁

When should I deep conduction ?

me asf😂
