I totally agree Karen. Very reminiscent of when KZfaq first started, and the natural hair community on KZfaq had just came about. Just sharing ideas and trying new things. I’m glad you’re enjoying my content and I’m happy to have you here.

This is the best comment that I’ve read in a very long time! I agree Sis‼️💯

🥹 this made me really happy. Thank you, I’m glad we can all help one another on my platform.

Hey Diane. Thank you for sharing your routine using Miche beauty in such detail. I appreciate it!

Thanks for this. I just got my order of Miche DC, leave in and Set mousse. Good to know it's good to use the leave in with it, since they say the mousse alone is enough, but my hair is kind of dry after having applied henna recently. I don't have the sculpt gel, so might need to either skip that or use something else. Any recommendation for something you find to be similar to the sculpt gel?

Yes , girl we must embrace out natural hair it's unique and wonderfully made. I promise , if you give it a little more time and people once again will be copy Kat off us! because they never seen anything like it.... (so many natural waves & curls) Who hair does that???? They copy our bodies and trust and believe they will be copy our hair. just watch!! I said the same thing when I looked in the mirror about my own hair. girl I love it so much.. I honestly think I'm cute... seriously!! I get a lot of stares and a lot of compliments from our black women, they want to know What I use on my hair. I happily tell them everything!!

@@rozzie1569 YASSSS you are so right because the children now aren’t getting relaxers and parents are more aware how to take care of natural hair . The kids now only wear natural styles. Taking care of their natural hair will be the norm for them . Not viewed as a burden or “nappy”. It will be the norm for a black child to have Afro textured hair mid back and waist length 😍. Best believe others will copy . If you go look at pictures from the 70’s there were plenty of white people with “Afros” 🙃 Im 27 and I’ve been natural since I was 12 , but I was the natural that kept my hair put away in braids, then sew-ins, then wigs . Never fully embraced the natural, I didnt know how to care for it . At the age of 25 I became a conscious natural. Been loving the journey every since .

Thanks Tanoe 💜. Same, day 1 was the best!

Love it!

It’s becoming one of my favorites. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! 💖

You’re welcome!

👏🏾 I agree. Thanks!!

Hope you like it!

Thank you for sharing your experience with a buff. I have something similar to it, and I tried using it once and was like oh no. I appreciate the feedback! 💕

I want to try it with the curl cream as well. I appreciate you sharing your experience, and thanks!

Hey Soror 👋🏾 I appreciate it! Ofc ❤️

Thanks 😊

@@BrittanyMia you’re welcome

💕

It’s really good, I enjoy it. I want to try it with a curl defining cream. Too bad it’s sold out right now because of the memorial day sale. I still have a good amount left but I need moooore.

@@BrittanyMia I currently have 4 in my stash🫠 I always pick it up whenever a sale pops up if my pockets are right 😂

🥰 thanks!

💕

😂 it’ll be posted in the next week or so!

I thought I was the only Mr. Glass out here 🤣

Yesss!!!

@@tieashasamuels2627 😂 no chile I be looking a mess

Niiice. Sounds like a really efficient routine! Tfs.

Thank you 😊 come back and let me know how it works out once you do! Tfs!

Thanks!

Thanks ☺️

I appreciate you sharing your routine! I applaud the consistency as well. It is amazing how much we can continue learning, even after having natural hair for majority of our lives. I was only relaxed for about 3 years in between elementary and middle school. I’ve been learning ever since. I agree, it’s a beautiful thing to witness and experience with others. ❤️

Thank you 🥰

Hey Debra, thanks for being here!

🥰

Thank you 🖤

Ooo interesting. Using a serum as a primer is interesting when it comes to setting tight curls at least. I’m intrigued. Thank you for sharing this!

You’re welcome! Glad it was helpful.

Hey Soror 👋🏾 thank you.

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing!! I’m actually really over stretching because I hate maintaining it but it’s good to know because the more manipulation the more frizz.

Gotcha, thank you.

I’m on a little break from UFD. I tried it again recently, when one of my wash and go’s failed and it just makes my hair so flat. Even with a mousse. Not my favorite combination, but I may give it a try in the future. Thanks for following my journey! It’s always fun when you have similar curls and are at a similar hair stage. 💖

Give it a try!

Thank you so much because I really care about the music 😭 I appreciate you 🤗

How has the cowashing been working out for you?

@@BrittanyMia i would say overall i am loving not shampooing so frequently. I need to figure out why I’m still taking an hour in the shower to detangle water rinse and do my olaplex no 3 even though ive cut out my second weekly shampoo and traded it for a water rinse/ cowash.

@@Jakelan20 LITERALLY ME. Like why am I still taking a very similar amount of time to do this? In July when I get my hair trimmed, I’m going to get it blown out first because I’ve been seeing the discussion on curly cuts not being as efficient and I think that could be a factor for me. I’m not 100% on that but I’ll know in July.

@@BrittanyMia that discussion of curly cuts is exactly why i had my hair blown out and trimmed two weeks ago. It had been 18 months since i had my hair straightened and i saw several influencers whom had to get inches cut once they did straighten their hair they saw damage they didn’t see while it was curly. To my surprise i only needed a dusting. I love ur haircut by the way! I need my hair shaped soooo bad i have this semi mullet shape left after transitioning and cutting it myself lol

Thanks for sharing this!

Tfs!

Love whipped curls.

Yes! I forgot to check out, so thank you lol.

I want to try the curly whip and the mousse!

@@BrittanyMia Nice, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on both.😃

Same! My scalp hates me if I go more than three days without water on it. I watched your short, and the banding really did help elongate the Wash N’ Go!

Absolute W comment 😭 I can see it. She would’ve slayed this look. Thanks 💕.

Yes! I’m playing with shape as I grow it out. I want to try that as well. Tfs 💜.

The Q&A and a lifestream is a great idea. Thank you for sharing this!

Was strolling to the comments to comment about the Verb foaming gel as well! Since the Miche is also labeled as a foaming gel. If she likes this, she may like the other too!

Imma have to try it. Tfs!

I do still end up using a leave-in. Thanks!

I recently purchased the Grace Eleyae satin lined open cap so I’m going to give that a try first. I’m sure the buff works well since so many people use it successfully, but it’s more of a personal preference. Thanks for the recommendation. I may try it if the open cap does not work for me.

@@BrittanyMia i hope that works for u

I’ll be trying it this week, I’m so excited 😆! I wanted to wait until I got the Innersense Sweet Spirit Leave-In and it’s half off tomorrow at Ulta🙌🏾.

🫱🏾‍🫲🏿 You are amazing. Just purchase the navy blue since they’re on sale. Thanks!

Now wait a minute…👀👩🏽‍💻

When I don’t film, I still keep my same routine. I will shampoo once a week on Sunday. Depending on the week, or how busy I am, I will do a midweek cowash with either a cowash hair product, or just a conditioner and re-style. If I find one, I sure will link it.

😂 well nothing has changed as far as the job is going. But I’m still applying and focusing on my YT until I can secure something.

❤️

I’ve decided to use the income I get from KZfaq to put back into my KZfaq. I can make an update video though.

👀 oooo good idea.

It’s really moisturizing, so I don’t think it pairs well with another highly moisturizing product but I can’t remember off the top of my head which products. I’ll have to watch the videos back.

@@BrittanyMia Thanks I'll go back and check them out!

I rinse my hair, condition my hair, rinse and reapply more of the styler I am using that week.

Do you typically use the mousse by itself? Let me know how it works out for you with the leave-in when to try it!

I use it with the Lavish Leave-in. I usually do twistouts, and it works well for me.

I personally don’t like doing twist outs. However I’m not fully opposed so it’s a maybe!

I believe he recommends stretching the hair because our hair coils up once it’s highly conditioned and styled. It can begin to tangle on itself again easily just because that’s the nature of our hair, but if we stretch our hair with heat, we are avoiding that and the damage would be nil due to the highly conditioned state of our hair. With a good balance of bond builders/proteins/and moisturizing products such as deep conditioners and conditioners that coat our strands (and the heat protectant if you want to implement one) using a blow dryer on medium high heat to stretch the hair would not be damaging. I’ve been stretching my hair with heat and I’ve watched many naturals over the years stretch their washing goes with heat on a consistent basis and they did not experience heat damage. However, I cannot attest to everyone’s hair. This is also why I band at night so that I don’t have to heat stretch every single day. If I decide to make my wash and go last for two or three days instead of cowashing every day, the banding helps to maintain that stretch. Hope this helps! 💖

Thanks so much for the explanation and your time. You are great

Sure! So after using the Miche for that full week, I still have at least half the bottle left. In my future videos I’ll try and show how much product I’ve used.

@@BrittanyMia Thank you Brittany!

I think that is a cool idea. It’s different. I’m down to react to somebody’s hair routine.

So you dont leave the oil while under the hoodeed dryer**

I stayed under the hooded dryer for around 10 minutes. Then I diffused the roots for another 10 minutes or so, and then took off the diffuser and just started blow drying directly on the roots. I am still using the Mongongo oil, but I don’t use it as a heat protectant. I use it as a finishing spray. Sometimes I forget to even spray it on my hair, but I still love it.

@@BrittanyMia That sounds like a quick process. I see peeople say they spend about an hour under the hooded dryer like lol . Thats way tooo long!

It can be quite expensive. Seeee, don’t judge me, but I’m using a expensive product for a cowashing 🫣 Olaplex No.5. I absolutely love that conditioner. I also like using the pattern beauty intensive conditioner. I’m on the lookout for other conditioners to use but these both work really well for me right now.

💯

I don’t stretch my bangs I just put them very loosely in a satin scrunchie. I band the rest of my hair.

I haven’t used it in a minute, but I still like it a lot. I haven’t been using anything consistently lately

I’m basically feeling for the curl clump. My hair will be clumped into its curls around the root of my hair, and I just want to separate it from there. It’s difficult for me in the crown area of my head because the girls are in as clumped but that’s essentially what I’m searching for when I’m separating.

Thanks for sharing this. I know some people said it was normal but it just wasn’t something I was expecting. Good to know.

👋🏾 I don’t use a cowash shampoo. For me, it kind of defeats the purpose of cowashing.

Most recently I was shampooing twice a week so that I could try multiple mousse products without them interfering with each. I think it depends on the shampoo that you use because some people can shampoo twice a week and their hair isn’t dried out, but I’ve noticed, as my hair gets longer shampooing more than once a week is starting to dry out the ends of my hair a lot quicker than it used to. My scalp gets sweaty and dirty because I workout hard and spend a lot of time walking around the downtown area and there’s a lot of stuff in the air. I have sensitive skin, however, water washing has been working well to get the debris out of my scalp and just cowashing my hair is helping my hair, maintain its moisture and hydration in between my weekly shampoos. Sidenote, I was shampooing twice a week for a while when my hair was shorter too and it worked out okay, but I was also using uncle funky’s daughter curly magic each wash day. Even with the double shampooing, my hair started to feel over conditioned, which is why I was shampooing twice a week back then as well. UFD has a lot of moisture in it, and I was using a good amount each wash day, which I think helped lead to the over conditioning of my hair. Now that I am more balanced, and I don’t really use it my hair dries quicker and it feels stronger. Not saying that UFD was the issue, but highly moisturizing gels such as that one can take a long time to dry because of the amount of water it was holding in my hair, and it was basically a gel that could be used as a leave in conditioner. It defined my curls so well, but since I like bigger hair, and the UFD gives me more defined flat hair I’ve been moving away from that product.

@@BrittanyMia oh that makes sense. I agree with the UFD

I have a TikTok but I haven’t committed my time to it. It’s something I’ve been really considering. I believe it would help grow my platform as well, so I’m going to get on that soon.

These are both great ideas. Thank you, Asia!

I’m not very well-versed on discord, but I’ve heard great things, so I’m looking into it. Thank you for the suggestion! And I love your profile pic. 🤗

@@BrittanyMia 😭 thank you! Best show ever

Lol I appreciate the feedback. I’ve tried it, and I do think scrunchies work to stretch the hair out, but I’m starting not to like stretching my hair out. It’s just become another thing to do and I agree that it encourages frizz. Thanks.
