I literally just woke up, you know one of those when you have your head tile on and then how, for you three asleep, it falls off and this is it hey guys welcome back to my channel. My name is RAL AKA, el of glad, please. If this is your first time on my channel, please do not forget to hit the subscribe button now. That being said, i'm sure you're here, because you really want to learn how to make your 4c afro-pop. Basically, how to define your curls and today, i'm going to show you guys how now that being said, I am a 4c hair. However, I do believe right now. The front of my hair right here is probably like a 4b because it's going through things, but I am predominantly a four-seat. So this isn't my hair 7 days later after my big chop after curl defining it and what not right now, it's flat at the back, because I sleep over my back so don't mind it also something else that I notice is that it is now flaking. I don't know if you guys can see that 7 days later for flake is not bad at all, because in the past I've used products that started flaking like two days into it, or even three days into it. Like eco styler, gel TJ and curling custard kind of started, flaking on me like four days in so this is pretty good. So let me show you guys what the back looks like, but this is the front. I don't know if you guys can kind of see it, but the curls are still there, the back it's flat and everything, because I just woke up I'm about to go wash my hair anyway over here around here, it's kind of like more kinky or no more Curls, I can kind of feel some curls on to these ends and then right here I can kind of feel like half curl have back so I'm going to go shower wash my hair and that we're going to reactivate it for the next seven days. Let me tell you guys the four reasons why your 4c curls are not popping number one, how you dry your hair and basically, what I mean by how you dry your hair is: are you drying your hair with a towel? Towels tend to have what you called up so basically the wrinkly frizzy, looking things on a towel. What that does? It does affect your cuticles, your hair cuticles, so it ends up raising the hair cuticles and, as a result, your hair is already frizzy and matted and also drying your hair with a towel sucks out the moisture from your hair over dries, your hair absorbs all the Water for me, your hoes, already freezing it's matted, it's dehydrated! So when you're trying to make your curls pop, it is not working. So, instead, what I do suggest that you Duke, which I'm sure you guys probably already know this just dry, your hair with a cotton material, aka, a t-shirt, make sure you dry your hair with a t-shirt and if you got the little, I got the time. Make sure you dry in here with some microfiber cloth and that's the best to dry your hair, and that way it's going to leave your hair cuticles, looking smooth rather than frizzy and matted and dehydrated, and now we're going to put some product spin it and begin To define our curls the first things first, because of course I dried it with a t-shirt, I'm going to go ahead and spritz it just to get it back, wet up again because it dry a little bit too much and you're just very slightly. So this is the Cantu shea butter leave-in conditioner a little bit last time I used quite a bit and it did leave the white residue like this in my hair and my hair does not absorb products that are in custard form as much it's almost like it. Just stays on top of my hair for a while, so this time around we're using it, but just a very little amount and as you can see, it is absorbing it a lot better. This time around, when I go ahead and spray it with more water. Just to help everything absorb properly so for the definition I'm using the curl boss - and this is my own Jackie as well - and it's the coconut creme recipe cook and our curl in jelly. So this is the new thing or the only new thing that I've incorporated into my hair and that's the reason why my hair lasted for like seven days, in my opinion, at least so you guys try it out. Let me know down below, if your curls actually last, that long and I'm going to part it where I like. I just found that parting. It does help shape my face a lot better than just leaving it, as is I'm going to be defining these curls downwards. Like so, and then I'm going to be defining these ones this way, so we're gon na start on this side. So I'm taking a little bit of the jelly and I'm just gon na run it through my hair and then this is where it comes, and this is where your patience comes in. It'S gon na. Take it like so and begin to define it so reason number two why your 4c curls are not popping is basically you're, not using enough water when you're trying to define these curls. So let me tell you one thing: real quick: when you're trying to define your curls, especially as a four-seat girl, you need your hair to be soaking wet in order for the definition to appear if your hair is semi wet. If your hair is completely dry cuz, a lot of people tend to add a defining product on dry hair. It'S not going to work you're literally going to end up with an afro frizzy hair with no curls at all, so make sure your hair is soaking wet. So when you add in water to a particular section over time, the rest of the sections will dry out. So you need to keep your add in water while you're trying to define the curls so that your 4c curls could be pop bang. So reason number three: this one is a big one and that's because you are not patient and what I mean by that is guys. It took me 15 minutes, 50 to 55 minutes, give or take to activate or to define my curls as you guys could see in the video I tried to include every step of the way I even included how I was resting when I was resting, because a Lot of us, we want on a popping curls, especially as for see girls, because we're we don't have any curls to begin with when we're done, washing our hair. So now, what we end up doing is we're magically thinking that our curls are going to happen overnight, but no that's not going to work. You literally have to be patient with it. Your hands are going to hurt. This is real life whatever that is worth. Having does not come easy, so you got to take your time and do it. I was talking to my cousin and basically she was asking me how I was able to define my curls to look on a popping, and I told her she said my hair. It'S not gon na do that plus I nobody got time for that um. My friend said the same thing. They'Re like oh, my gosh. I love your curls. How did you define them so? Well, I told them how long it took me and they're, like nobody got time for that. So if you do not have patience, you will not have on a popping curls as a 4c girl is as simple as that. We cannot up and do wash and gos. Unfortunately, so you got to put in the word and the reason why this is not really bothering me is because this lasts for seven days. So I don't really mind because I only have to do it once a week and I'm group chief for the rest of the week. Okay, so we are more than halfway through the curling right now, as you guys can see I've curled here, let's see here and like I said you don't have to be perfect at these things. You just have to have patience because I curled the back of my hair without a mirror. I'M not necessarily seeing the back to see how well it's curling, but to me that doesn't really matter. I feel, like the precision happens in front. So that's where I'm concerned about the back. So far, it's not like a throwie. I surprised a little bit more curly you're, pretty much good to go right. Now. We are almost done so far. It'S been 20 minutes. It takes time guys. Okay, it takes time all right, so number, four reason why your 4c curls are not popping is because you're not using the right curl definers. So, basically, my products are in a custard form, like kind of like the leave-in conditioner that I use in the video. You will notice that it does not absorb quickly into my hair. So, as a result, you got to be able to pick curls definers that do actually absorb into your hair, and luckily enough I was able to come across the on Jacqui curl definer and I am obsessed coz. It'S literally a coconut jelly, its gel, but not really gel because gel. I also feel this is not really absorbed to my into my hair properly. So, if you're anything like me, you find the products do not actually sink into your hair. Cuticles right away. Try this product, you guys, are going to absolutely absolutely love it and when was done, this is all I have to curl like I said the wetness. Something here really makes a difference, and it really does make it easier even on right now for styling it as well as for maintaining it throughout the week, because when you wake up, all you have to do is just spray a little bit of water, and it's Almost kind of like every activates, the gel in the hair and then your hair is back up to. In my opinion, I've noticed also it helps keep your hair, hydrated and moisturized throughout the week I found carrion and lastly, honestly. This is not even part of the four reasons, but this is just something I had to throw in there because right now, it's midnight and I've been doing this all day, so I literally wanted to throw it in there, and that is the hands in hair syndrome And basically, what that means is when we put in all this work to have her hair pop a instead of us now, leaving it alone, so they can actually last you for a week we end up putting our hands in it like right now I was laying On my bed, because I had to refill this part of the video because I did it outside and it was raining, it was too overblown long very short. This is a refill Minh of this section. So from morning time till now, I've literally been playing with my hair and, as you guys can see, I'm already losing definition in the front, because I have the hands and hair syndrome. So you guys remember the parting, we're trying to retain that, although we can always go back and fix it, but I just want to make sure you retain it as much as possible, so you don't end up breaking any curls trying to fix it afterwards. If you mess it up, I'm gon na curl this to fall right here and then curl this right here, curl this right here and basically what I'm just trying to do is kind of like create a bump there. I don't know how to explain it. You guys are just gon na have to pretend to get it, but I hope it makes sense. So essentially, the side of this part was falling here and now this is gon na fall here and then this is gon na fall here. So if you guys want your hair to be on and pop of your curls to be autumn popping, please do not play with your hair, because you're gon na be there like, oh ooh and then as you're on Instagram and snapchat you're, literally just touching. If you're bored you're stretching out the curls I'm playing with it, I do that all the time. So if you do that girl - and so sorry, but even your curls - are not gon na be on involving that's alright, this is pretty much it all. Curled up just kind of like looking all over the place now we're going to go ahead and kind of define it more, especially like the part that we had initially, because it's just there we're going to find where the part is which is right here and I'm Going to take the same Carlene jelly and I'm just going to use that to drag it's almost kind of like hair gel in your own hair down, I'm also going to spray it, so that area is dry in a little bit. The key to this hairstyle really is just wet hair, more wet your hair is the better. So I'm going to use that right here. So this right here you just have to push down here as well. It'S going to end precise the part. So then the part could be more prominent, and this was what I was talking about initially about making sure your part is somewhat clear because if you separate it you're separating the curls, so I'm gon na have to recur this and put it on the side. And that's pretty much how I style my hair, I'm going to let it dry, I'm gon na. Do my makeup and I'll be right! Back! Okay! You guys will probably see me tomorrow because it is like 5:30 now, I'm just gon na, let it air dry and then tomorrow morning I'm gon na do my makeup and no finish talking and that's pretty much all the tips I have so that it will help You guys have your 4c hair popping in no time so please comment below. If you guys try out any of these tips and let me know how it works for you have you been doing it before? Is this your first time doing it, and I hope this video is very helpful and I hope you guys are able to follow along with me trying to define my curls. It was a long process, not gon na lie but, like I said nothing worth. Having comes easy enjoy the rest of your evening and I will definitely see you guys in my next video so now, I'm just gon na say bye, so bye,

MsStacyYvonne: I'm sloooowwwlly accepting the fact that I'm going to have to take the time and patience to do this if I want my FRIZZY high porosity hair to be defined like this. I used to take the time when I had a twa but then my hair got long and I got lazy smh.
Kat Brax: I love it when we sisters come together and give each other props.
Megan Mclean: Hello! Thank you for being honest about the REAL process in doing 4C hair. My hair would never turn out the way I wanted it to and I would be so fustrated. But I learned so much about how to care for my hair! I hope to see more hair videos soon!
lorraine johnson: This is absolutely gorgeous! I am truly blessed that I found your video. I am 60 yrs old and had shoulder length relaxed 4c hair. Did the big chop in April 2018 then again a couple of months later. I said omg what have I done! It has been a struggle because I've been relaxing since I was 16 but young lady you have saved me! I love your hair which is just like mine. Now I can try this and I know it will turn out beautiful. Thank you again queen!
Tiarhan Oghenejode: You are a lifesaver! I have 4C hair and never really knew what to do with it. It literarilly took me 1h30mins to complete this look and it came out great! Thanks Loveglam
HoniBear64: I’m guilty of the “hands on” addiction. I’ve played in my hair for as long as I can remember (66 yrs now). And I didn’t know that natural hair would take so much time/work. I should have known since our hair IS special and delicate.
Charmaine Morris: Hi LoveGlam I loved your tutorial it was exactly what I am experiencing as a newly transitioned 4c girl 1 wk after my big chop I tried it exactly as u said and day 1 was awesome I have to see how long it will last after watching the next video. I did find that I didn't need to raise it with a pick it already had sufficient body. Will look out for more videos
Veronica Mays: Your hair is beautiful. I just did my fifth big chop (it's been about four years since the last one.) This time I was getting rid of red dye because my grays kept insisting on reappearing. I needed this reminder of what to do with my short hair while it grows! Thank you.
LIT TRINN: First time trying a twist out with my natural hair since I did a big chop so I’m really excited to see how it comes out! Thank you for the lovely tips ♥️
Freda Cooper: This is a great video for 4c girls! I big chopped a week ago and to say I’m struggling is and understatement. I definitely have to develop the patience to do a wash n go! Which other youtubers make it seem so easy.... thank you for your honesty!
Well Body+Mind LLC - Lydia A.: I have to say I've watched many videos on how to really define my curls, with my 4C hair and your video is the only one that made it simple and clear and easy to understand what to do. I tried it last night and today my curls were WELL DEFINED and poppin!! And, they lasted all day. Finally no frizz!! Thank you thank you!! You are amazing and your tutorial saved me! Cause I was slowly giving up.
Donna-Marie Gyles: Thank you so much, girl! I am by far not hair savvy. I have 4C hair and I am just growing my hair out of a really low big chop. I had no idea what to do with it. Today, I am rocking my curls that you taught me to do from this video. My next challenge for myself is to braid my hair, which I will use your tutorial to help me do. I feel so excited to see that I am actually capable of doing my own hair! Thank you again. Your video was like a 4C video for dummies. God bless you.
The Rising Star: I’m a 4C low porosity girl. Try the Rhassoul clay to define and soften your curls. For really dry hair I used an avocado, one egg yolk, mayo and honey. I was quite impressed with the moisture and curls. Let me know if you try either one.
Delois Ballard: This is the first time I have seen a 4c hair blogger define the curls like this. When I first went natural, I needed this information. It took me 8 months to figure out how define my 4c hair. When started using Kinky Kurly Curling Custard my curls were defined and moisturized. I totally agree with your tips because I do the same thing but with different products.
Amy-Yvette: Very helpful! I haven’t defined my curls yet but totally confident in trying after watching your video! Many thanks xx
Staceyann Solomon: Finally someone who shows the reality in getting your curls. Thanks for making mention that it takes a little time
Tommie Nicole Boyd: Thank you so much for this video. I had been doing everything to get my curls poppin. Finally..... defined curls.. So many compliments as well. You are wonderful.
Khrys-Ann Josephs: Thanks for sharing your method in such great detail this is super helpful. I love how you explained your process of getting such defined curls on 4C hair while doing your hair.❤️
J. M-A: This video is dope! I love the sidebar concept! I have 4C, low porosity, low density, thin width hair so this video is like the blue print. I've had some form of loc'd hair all my life and I did another big chop recently, but I'm not planning to regrow locs again. I am literally starting from scratch. I starting doing my hair in the shower, and sitting under a dryer everyday; and it's tedious but my hair has never looked so healthy. I had no idea how beautiful my 4C COILS are before now. I love them!
Squishy Time: This was so helpful! Thank you so much for the advice and your honesty about having patience because that is key with our hair.
Symantha Parker: You are the first person to break this down for me! I will be trying this on my next wash day. Wish me patience
Desi Lou: Thank you for this video! I am in the process of growing my hair out to create my own mohawk version (it is now about 4 inches on the top, shorter on sides and back) and there were a couple of things I did not see, and may have been shown in a previous video: how you cover your hair at night and what you do to maintain your curls for 6 days.
Nunyadamn Bizness: YES! This is everything I needed to hear having 4C hair myself. Thanks!
Vferrell83: I really do love you talk all of us through this. I'm not a 4c but, I watched this because you're very motivating, and are actually teaching. Keep it up sis!
Adorah Taylor: Girlllllllllll girl girl girl never have I everrrrrrr had this type of definition I almost passed out I could hug you. I’ve gotta do a video for this. I can’t believe I’ve overlooked aunt Jackie’s. I literally was afraid a gel but now it’s on and poppin .
D. C.: Thank you!!! The best tutorial I’ve watched. I learned a lot. I just did the big chop for the 3rd time and am loving my length but didn’t know exactly how to achieve this look. BTW, you are striking
Kyla Butler: Love this video!!! Thanks for helping us 4C girls!!!!
Bettyann Mensah: LOOOVE IT. I have 4C hair too and I’ve had it 1-3 inches short for about 5 years now but I finally decided to grow it out so I’ve been here looking for cute hairstyles and I’m glad I came across your video. Thank you so much.!!!!!
Andrea Lopez: You are an inspiration of confidence, patience, and curl love!! Thank you for your video!
busyrand: Outstanding video! I appreciate how frank you where about investing the hour it takes to complete this look. I've had close female friends across the rainbow of race/ethnicities as a photographer who deals with models. All of them spend at least 1-3hrs a week on their hair routine. It's just part of their feminine lifestyle. If you can't/don't then you have to question whether you are serious about wanting nice hair. If you don't think you're worth 1-3hrs a week, then you need to examine things. The time passes regardless.
Just One Jandiace: I just twisted my hair following your instructions and I love it! Thanks so much!
Marcia Cole: I got my big chop 2 days ago and was slowly panicking as to how to define my 4c fine strand high porosity high density hair... This helped me so much!! And your hair is bomb subscribed! ✅
Keiona Aguilera: Yesssss Girl! Thank you! Finally a video that HELPS! I wish I could show you my before and after
Jacqueline Mays: Hey Lady! I truly loved your video and everything you explained is on point so I will definitely give this a try normally I just watch videos and keep it pushing but you pulled this 4C-DEFG girl in thank you Merry Christmas and God bless you and your family.
OriginalMissTee: I don’t know how I found this video but the fact I was wondering what style I should do in my hair today (my length is similar to yours, did a chop a few months ago). Let me get up and mimic this style. Love it!! Just gorgeous all around. Just a tip for anyone, if your 4c hair isn’t curling with water or conditioner, use the pearly braid out from mane choice. It’s my go to if I want extra defining without any frizz. I don’t always like gel so I only use it sometimes.
Ms. KoKo: YOU LITERALLY JUST SAVE ME!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! MY CURLS ARE LOOKING BEAUTIFUL!!! THANK YOU!! I USE AFRICAN ROYAL BRAID SPRAY TO KEEP my hair moisturized. I've been using it for almost 20 years!!!
BoxItUp!: You make me excited to wear my natural hair! I needed this video to gain the courage. Love your hair beautiful woman!
Katina Henderson: Thank you so much for this video! I colored my 4c hair so I was contending with dry hair on top of everything else! Your video is so helpful and now I know what I was doing wrong! Thank you so much for your video! Oh, your makeup is popping too!
Ro Just Ro: This was a wonderfully informative video. The very first mistake I realized was that my hair is not really wet when I’m trying to twist it. Your technique was very reasonable to me. My only question is how do you keep the ends from getting tangled because I didn’t see you comb the hair or part it, you basically used your fingers for all the work? Beautiful work!
isis murray: OMG! It's like I found my hair twin. This tutorial resonated with me so much. Thank you so much for your content.
Tonia Velasquez: Hi LoveGlam, I loved your video. I recently tried to perform this hairstyle but failed at it. I used the a custard loc method that I say on another video and it was a total flop. I was super geeked and hopeful while watching your video. Your look (hairstyle) and appearance (makeup was on point) caught my attention when I was searching for a simple but stylish video for this hairstyle. You Rocked this video! Go Boss Lady!!! Thank you for sharing and I plan to try it using the same products.
Miranda Brokenberry: I absolutely love this video... I have to admit I was about skeptical at first, but you have made a believer out of me! The way you kept it super authentic is what made me subscribe to the channel. We can all relate to waking up to that smushed hair look lol... but we see you transform right before our eyes & I love it! Makes me feel like I can actually achieve this look.... natural beauty is sooo amazing! Thank you
Pauline Jackson: I have watched a few videos on 4c hair and by far i enjoyed yours the most . My hair is a 4c whew chile type situation i have been keeping it wrapped up and im ready to get my curls poppin like yours ! So thanks for taking the time to educate us 4cers.
stephanie d: This is a very helpful video! I tried natural a few years ago. I gave it a year and a half and never found products that worked. Went back to relaxers. I recently decided to give it another try so I've been watching all these videos. I have hands in hair syndrome . I have a bad habit of playing in my hair when I have a lot of new growth. It's something abt the thickness and waviness of it . Problem is I can't keep it moisturized.
Tebogo Mononyane: Oh my gosh! Finally a detailed video on how to define my curls and do finger coils for 4c hair. Thank you sooo much!
Sharon Williams: First of all you are beautiful. Thank you sooooo much for this candid, informative video. I just cut off my Sisterlocks after 6 years. I had forgotten how to maintain my 4C tendrils, this refresher is what I needed. Maybe you could do a makeup video how to also, I am in serious need of that too!
Cmisah: Finding the right products to work in your hair is a task. Eco styling gel is cute, but my hair laughs at it in my face . I'm going to try the Aunt Jackie's gelee. Thanks for this video
Traci Cash: Thank you for these much needed tips. I do about 80% of what you do, but never used a t-shirt and I guess I get so tired of doing it that I never really give myself a true style. I will be doing my hair this weekend and I will go look for that gel you used. I use ECO other products, but I will definitely go seek this out. My hair is your length now from me shaving it completely off. Thank you for the tips. This was very helpful.
Bern Fran: It's amazing what make-up can do to transform/define our natural features. Looks great!
Roquell Millington: I'm I the only one getting dark chocolate Eva Marcelle? The voice, that beat face but that extra dose of melanin! Stunning woman, great video ❤
Crystal Reese: This video was spot on for 4C hair. I tried the wash go and it was a hot mess. I see now I need to put the effort into my hair to define the curl. Thanks sooooo much.!!!!!
Melissa J: Natural hair YouTube videos aren't what they use to be. I am so glad you still have this video up. I've been growing out my tapered cut and my go to wash and go routine stop hitting. My curls are popping. Thank you for the tips, I love my hair
Dr. Venus: This has been VERY helpful!! I just bought the jelly but didn’t know how to use it. And you are right, I wasn’t being patient. I saw other ladies just put product in their hair and the curls would pop. But I am a 4c-4d woman. I have to put the time in. And I have to use a tee shirt. And I have to keep my hands out of my hair. Thank you!!!
Liz C.: I really like how you kept it real in your video. The 1st time I tried to go natural I wasnt prepared for the time it will take to do the hair styles as well as find the right products. This time around I'm doing the transtionung way instead of the big chop. But you just got a new subscriber for just keeping it !!
Genevia Williams: This is the first time I've ever felt genuinely excited to try a new product and technique because nothing really works for me and now I see a reason why❤❤❤
She Walks It, She Talks It!: This was full of good tips and I love love how well spoken she is! Great job!
Tasha Martin: Love this! I literally just impulsively did the big chop and have no idea what the heck I'm supposed to do ♀️
Amethyst_Rising: I set my twa in a similar way. Instead of coiling my hair I use the sponge method. I use a diffuser and my coils are set for 4-5 days, I steam shower to wake up the coils then I mist with a light hair oil. Very wet hair is the key to a good set. Very pretty!
blackbeautykify: Girl, thank you so much for this video and the helpful information! I have been looking for a video that would help me with my hair texture and your texture appears to be the same as mine, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Marlo Davis: Thank you Sis. This is by far the best video for my 4c hair. Hugs
Prince XL: Interesting. It's literally IMPOSSIBLE for 4C hair not to curl. If anything, it curls too damn much lol
Tina Billingsley: You are BEAUTIFUL and I LOVE your hair! I bi chopped my hair a little over a year ago and the learning process has been SO fun!
Jovan Rund: I'm 42 years old and this video literally turned on a light bulb for me about my own hair. Thank you!
sherri Morgan: Thanks girl that jelli worked wonders on my hair it did last all week and I got alot of compliments on my hair
blessed blessed: I just cut my hair and it feels good. It's been over 20 years I havent wore my natural hair out bcuz it's been hard. I'm learning from you...Thank you
Jessica Lewis: I didn't know this was necessary or possible. Thank you. I've shaved my head several times because the grow out was terrible for me. With this method I could actually grow it out
Linda Lee: You have really gave me a LOT of great tips that I did not know. I will definitely let you know how it goes.Great job you were easy to follow and you didn’t give us a lot of information we didn’t need and a life story hate those !!!!!!
harlemhoney3170: Finger coils have been my go-to-style for years. They last for at least a week and as They uncoil they morph into a curly Afro which I love. You did a great job.
Belinda Deas: Oh my goodness thank you so much, because I didn't know I had to keep my hair hydrated when I was doing my curls. I'm gonna do it thank you so much for teaching me that.
Lisa Richbourg: You answered ALL my questions and solved all hair issues...thanks!
Luna DeLyte: Well I am about to get started ok defining my curls today. Thank you for this video. ☺
Bob Left-Foot: My hair is not this curly... actually wondering if I’m 5c
Lex Davis: Coming from a 4C male I appreciate this because this is my 4C I see a lot of people say they have 4C but their hair isn’t nearly this level of kinky. Far be it from me to tell them that they aren’t 4C but either way this is what I deal with so it’s nice to see a real video from someone with 4C hair like mine
Glory Iluyomade: Everyone’s complaining about the time it took. Y’all sit for 3-5 hours for your lashes lol , this is beautiful ! Go gehl !!!
iateyursandwiches: The way to define type 4 hair is to weigh down the coils so they can be more visible. Our hair is like a spring. Heavy products and gels, especially if your hair is thick, are needed.
Cynthia Mann: THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!! I followed your video instructions to the letter. The tips you gave especially about t-shirt dry instead of the towel...HUGE. I JUST finished so I’ll see how long MINE last WITHOUT touching until time for next shampooing. Again THANK MS SOOO MUCH!!!!!!
Hadaryah Morgan: Love the makeup. The microfiber towel was helpful. Your hair seemed really dry after coming out of the tshirt. I am finding that deep conditioning with a heating cap really helped with this. It also stopped my breakage cold.
Rokeishia Rodgers: Random comment and not sure if you will see this, but I just cut my hair today (4/23/2020) - Yes I cut it during Quarentine- and I was excited and I still am! I have a short TWA like you do in this video. And I kept looking at myself in the mirror like "Do I look ugly" but I came across this video because I want to grow my natural hair out and looking at your face structure, it's kinda similar to mines haha and you look absolutely beautiful! And I promise I just got a boost of confidence just seeing how you rocking this style and your makeup! And I was like..okay yes I can make this work! lol Hope my hair grows better this time!
Rita Carter: Hair is beautiful! I just wash/wet it, use leave in conditioner and a little curl cream. My current length is approximately an inch long. I have a spray bottle with water, vitamin e oil, herbal oil, argan oil, lotta body curl creme and leave in conditioner. I spray my hair daily. My curls are defined and slightly coiled. I am going to asess my growth in June and September and proceed. I would like a little height in the top.
Victoria Carter: Loved this video and your hair and makeup are gorgeous! Thank you so much for the tips!!
Deborah Quave: HI @loveglam! I really enjoyed this video. Your humor was amazing. As well as the explanations. What are your suggestions for coiling and it not puffing up when you twist? (Does that make sense?) I tried to do this, but every time I wet it and applied the gel the twist would get poofy in the center of the twist. I ended up two strand twisting, but want to try this. Our textures look very similar and I think the style is dope!
Candace Wabbington: You're gorgeous and makeup is flawless. Thanks for the curl tip
tamia11 falanna: It’s because of beautiful natural wearing hair wearing women like you that make me now love my 4c hair, I actually know what to do with it now! Thank you!!!
Lisa Herron: Also for the parts of my hair that aren't locked, I put the jellee on dry. I've loved the dry method also.
cjameelah7: thank you queen this is the explanation that I need to hear about my 4c hair
Dee George: Love this vid! You are speaking to my lazy butt! because I’m the main one who does not understand why I can’t have “instant style” without having to work for it and take the time. Subbed!
Gemma: Gurrrl I love it! You are so beautiful Everything you said is the truth!! It literally takes time and patience to get the curls popping! I do the exact same method but I use different products like the Cantu Curl Activator, it really works well on my hair, and eco styler gel (but it does flake after a few days). I’m now looking for new curl definers that can provide definition without flaking my hair like the eco styler. New subbie
Karen Tyson: Girl. Thank you, u finally got my 4c haute curls done lastimosamente nite. They are perfect. Thank you for your video. Oh my God....
Solange Mayers: gonna definitely try this! LOVE YOUR HAIR ! AND MAKEUP YOU LOOK DIVINE! i sincerely believe this will work on my hair and that point of saying the moisture point is important is sooo true ladies with 4c hair wet your hair it will curl easier!
Chantel Watkins: Thanks for doing this . My hair type is similar and I always had trouble defining my curls. I will try your method. Great make up.
Miss ElleBelle: Thank you for this! You definitely taught me something’s!! AND your makeup!!!!
Anissha Blackwell: Stunning, thanks, Sis, for the tutorial.
Cheryl Wingate: Love love love the curls and great tips!
Daphne English: Wow…. I am 51 years old and am natural since 9/2021. I used to relax my hair regularly and loved my pixie cut. Profile picture from November 2019. I’m learning how to work with my hair now that it’s in its natural state. I compliment other women with natural hair. I felt like it looked good on them but not me. You are right about some of us not having patience. We want instant gratification. Who didn’t want that manageable, soft hair?♀️ I am learning to embrace my natural hair. It’s actually so thick and it’s probably the healthiest it’s ever been. When hair is in the between growth stages you’re wondering what cute styles you can do? My hair has grown out a little bit. It’s a little shorter then Ned the Wino’s (From Good Times episode when they cleaned him up ) My sister was able to 2 strand twist it and this is the second time she’s done it. I hadn’t uncoiled it yet. I was impressed with the first time she did it. I uncoiled it and used pick to fluff it up. I was like !! I’ve been watching videos on YouTube to get some ideas. I want to thank all those women who are truly doing these videos to help encourage others who’re trying to embrace their natural hair. It’s not an easy process and it does take time. I love to see healthy, natural hair that is well taken care of. We need to keep our hair hydrated and with some type of sheen. I love going back to the old school products. I like Sta-Sof-Fro cause it not only gives sheen it helps keep the hair moist and manageable. I know not every product works for everyone. It would be nice if there was a product out that worked for all types/textures of hair that gave hair a high gloss or wet look that didn’t run down your neck and have you looking shiny.♀️♀️ Is there such a product in the USA or abroad?
Joli .H.: Love this video so helpful recently did a big chop again all relaxer out Yass !! So I will go back to this method so glad I found it channel this is realistic result for us 4c ladies.
