Hey everyone, I am finally back for more natural hair tips!

Hey YouTube: it's Amina and I am finally back for my summer hiatus. I'M sorry that it took me so long to upload another video, but I am finally back and want to follow up with you to share all of my tips and tricks on how to transition. Your hair, so not too long ago, I posted a picture at my one-year anniversary from 2015 to now and show you guys how much of a difference going fee-free in my natural hair journey has made. So I wanted to give you my top ten tips for anybody. Who'S either thinking about transitioning or has just started their journey that need a little bit more guidance on how to do it successfully. So without further ado, here are my tips, so obviously the number one tip, first and foremost, is do not use heat. I know that it's very tempting, especially when you're entering into the colder months you kind of want to do some protective styling, but one of the things that will make the biggest difference is, if you do not use, he just put away all of your strangers. Curling irons, I personally have not part of mine they've, been hiding in their own little basket for the last year, and some change now and I haven't touched them - um. Of course, you're still going to have your blow dryer, but using that on the cooler setting is totally fine, but just stay away from anything. That'S going to apply direct heat to your hair, because that's really going to stun your progress number two. You do not have to bake chopped or even mini chop. What you really want to focus on is tray in a way that makes you feel the most comfortable. So if you want to hang on to your straight ends for a while and keep that length, then do that just make sure that you're doing everything that you can to treat your hair or spam fully and give it everything that it needs. But that doesn't mean that you have to part ways with your ends immediately. Take all the time that you need. Number three is trims. Are your biggest weapon they're your best weapon, your friend, your homie? They are what's going to progressively make your hair healthier, because you are slowly taking away the ends that are weighing your curls down. So as your natural curls start to come out of your head and your feet, damage is kind of growing out. You want to keep clipping away at that, because you're gon na have a lot of split ends that are also going to deter your growth. So you want to make sure that you're constantly paying attention to those. I would even just stand in the sunlight every now and then kind of scoped out my split ends and see if there were any that needed to disappear, and I would just slowly clip away at it like. I said before make sure that you do this in your own comfortability, but the more you do this, the easier it's going to be when you're finally ready to get rid of those ends and just embrace that curly hair number four stop using sulfate products. Nine point five times out of ten those aren't doing anything positive for your hair. It'S basically just like a dish. Soap, detergent. If you think about putting that on your hair, it's stripping away all of the oils and curly hair especially needs natural oil in order to grow and have that additional nourishment. So when you're stripping that down it's just making your curls angry, if you've ever used a shampoo that wasn't right for you, you'll notice that it's kind of make sure you're going to dry and stringy and yeah just do away with products that are not meant for Your hair, if they don't have all natural ingredients in them, I'm sorry but you're, going to have to toss them or find a good alternative for them until you're ready to maybe come back. You probably won't come back number. Five one solution does not fit everyone. So what that means is learn what your hair does learn. The unique pattern of your hair learn what your hair likes and dislikes. So what me work for my hair might not work for yours and vice versa, so find people who have similar hair types to you, whether it's online on blogs or on YouTube and follow their regimen more so than maybe somebody who might be your kernel crush. Who has a different curl patter than yours so learn your hair's porosity, learn if your protein sensitive and then follow suit for the things that are suitable for your unique hair type. Number six perm rods will trick everybody into thinking that you have already made it. Perm rods were my absolute best friend during my entire transitioning journey. Before I trimmed off all of my heat damage um. So what I was doing to keep my length going is just doing my part to style, as you can see them in my cravat video and what style to I would just put perm rods at the bottom of my hair. Anything that was straight and kind of work, strudy, gangly um. I would just throw a perm rod on it, because is what basically transform that straight hair into a curl that would match the curl pattern that was already growing out so, like I said before, if you're not ready to part ways with your ends, then that's one Way that you can do that to kind of disguise your straight ends into curls until you're ready to cut those things off number seven. This does not not. This is good news for a lot of people. This does not need to be an expensive journey. I know a lot of people are like it's so hard to keep up with all the hair products. There'S always new ones coming out. Should I try this launch, I try that one show you the deep conditioner that comes with shampoo, let the other conditioner that comes with the serum and styler. You don't have to try all those things. What you need to do is find some staple products that are good for your hair, so whether it happy a co-wash and then a good, deep conditioner. And then a couple stylers and a couple gels that you like and keep those in your rotation find what works for you and that's going to come with a lot of trial and error. The trial and error doesn't necessarily have to be super expensive. If you try out a product - and you just find that that is not meant for you - you can take that back to the story. You only used it one time and people's stores have a good return policy. So don't worry about this being an expensive journey. Just know that you're doing it as an investment into owning your natural hair, which is ultimately going to be a lot cheaper, then find a bunch of straighteners getting a weave things like that. You have so much more freedom in the end when you embrace this harren. Take good care of it, we're just actually pricey number eight with that said, make sure that you rotate your products when your hair tells you to so. That'S why I mention that it's good to have a couple stylers and a couple gels once you're using the products on a regular basis. Your hair might build up a tolerance to some of those ingredients that are in there for a period of time. So, during that phase, all you have to do is just rotate out. You can still keep those products and maybe save them for a month or two down the road and start using something else. Curly hair is weird that way it might be everybody's hair, but I just keep a couple different products on hand if your hair may not want to respond to that particular product. At that time, number nine coming to the end deep condition. Deep conditioning is key. One of the most important things you need to do, while you're transitioning, is make sure that you're replenishing your hair of moisture oil and all of that good stuff. That'S going to fit nice fresh and healthy. When I would skip deep conditioner. If I say oh, I don't really have a lot of time to do that, I'm just going to skip it. I would notice that my hair was significantly drier that beat so just making sure that it's a part of your regimen, whether it's every every single week like me or every other week. It'S really really going to make a huge difference and just giving your hair the nutrients that it needs to stay healthy and, last but not least, number ten is love and embrace this journey and your natural hair. I know that it's definitely a challenge getting used to having your hair a certain way for so long and auditioning over to something that's difficult. My hair drove me absolutely crazy, still kind of does for probably six months, and I really just took a while to get the hang of it, but the more I was experimenting, the more I was doing. What I knew was right for it. I really started to gain more confidence for it and in turn it it started to come out a lot better. I started to really hit my stride with what Styles work for me when I was going to do those - and I just stopped, comparing my hair to other people's you're going to see, people are like blue, big juicy curls little tiny, keke, coiling, curls and you're, not 100 % sure where your ears gon na fit in your hair is unique, and you should love and embrace that in every way, so don't get caught up in comparing your curls or your progress to anybody else's just love and embrace the journey um.

Ashlee Long: First of all, this was an awesome video! I wanted to ask a couple of questions because I'm transitioning, and I am on the STRUGGLE bus! Lol.

Machele Blue: I am happy to hear this I did the big chop a year ago my hair grew extremely fast and my natural curls came out it was so beautiful. Then I wanted to color it but the hair stylist said it’ll look bad because it’s hot outside. He said a texturized would be better. I had no idea it was like a perm! Now I have straight hairs and curly. Never going back to him. I’ve been wearing braids and protective styles to transition back. I was so sad. And wild hair growth been working. Is eggs coconut oil or vinegar good?
Pascale O: wow! Thank you for the great advice! my daughter's trying to transition and having a difficult time. Her hair looks like it's a similar texture as yours. You made some great suggestions that I think will help her.
Gloria: I’m on day 5 of my transitioning journey and God it feels goooood. Freed & relieved! I went to a beauty salon specialized in natural hair & they gave my hair so much love. They really encouraged me & gave me all info I needed. My next appointment is in 1 month. I didn’t big chop, they were super understanding. They told me I could be fully natural in 6 months cos my hair is not like super damaged. And the lady gave me her personal phone number in case I have any questions or I feel like giving up.. I’m literally so so happy. ❤️
AntayiaSimone: Love your consistency! I watched your videos old and new and even though your channel has flourish along with your hair, you still keep things simple.
Gabrielle Hardin: Thank you for this video! I have been in the process of recovering my hair from some heat damage, and these tips are very helpful p.s your eye shadow is giving me life
It is what it is....: I think I’ll officially go natural thanks to you!!! Thanks so much for sharing!
Terrazas Victim: I live in Miami. It never gets cold. And I work in a professional environment, so going natural was a challenge without being able to use heat and without doing a big chop. So the first year, I just roller set it every night and wore it up. Year 2-3 I wore curly extensions that matched my own curl pattern. I’m now into year 4 and my hair is down my back. It’s been a VERY long journey, but my hair has never been so long, and I swear by castor oil, it really makes my hair 2x faster! It may feel like forever, but it’s worth it in the end.
Ariel Glaze: This is super helpful and motivating thanks for sharing!
Pretty & Conscious: Ive been doing this for a month and I loveeeeee my curls! I dont even want to put heat to it. Thanks for this video ❤️
Mrs E. Orr: Great video! I am currently transitioning from heat damage and boy this stuff is NOT as easy as I thought it would be. I am going to hold on and stay confident tho. I am still working to find cute curly hair styles. My hair is not retaining any length I recently got braids and wish I didn't because my hair looks shorter now .
Sharon Beaner: I really enjoyed watching this video and your tips are right on point. Thank you! I'm wondering if what I'm currently seeing in my curl pattern will be the end result once I finish transitioning. I've cut most of the relaxed hair off of the back, and it is much thicker than the front. The textures have always varied around my head.
D: I’m just beginning my transition and I little nervous could you make a video of what like a week of transitioning would look like ? I’m a lol confused on when I should be putting in leave in conditioners and curling creams etc and how often ! Thank you ! You’re videos are very helpful !
Idee Francis: Thanks for sharing. when i went natural last year i had no information about going natural and i made a lot of mistakes. I am 8 months into this journey and i am educating a lot of women in Nigeria about going natural. so far, I have influenced a lot of women.
Elizabeth Mungai: I just started my transitioning journey and I am so glad I came across this video. It has given me answers to so many questions I had earlier and the motivation to go on. Good job!
Florentina Cabrera: love this advice. I just started well restarted my journey. the first time was fun because it wasn't too damaged but I went back to salons and straightening and now I have to start all over because I noticed my hair got dryer and rougher. I have been trying to stay strong. its been a week and I honestly miss my straight hair. I do love my curly hair more though so I'm really trying Bantu knots the night b4 and putting smoothie products and I just switched to non sulfate because I was tired of my hair feeling so tight and dry from regular shampoo. its amazing. I notice a great difference as I knew I would. can you tell me what my next step should be because I'm having a super hard time with my ROOTS. they are just not curling and they seem to get dryer quicker than the rest of my hair. please help!
Donnica Duncan: This video is very inspiring I really appreciate the tips you gave cause I have been transitioning for a year now and its been difficult but i try different styles and like them and other people compliment me on it so I feel pretty good about this natural hair journey so far even though its hard AND LOTS OF WORK
Mercy Owich: I am transitioning 8months now and am still holding on to my ends,can't wait to fully transist,I love your volumes
Daniela barajas: Thank you for this video it made me feel better about my curly hair journey! Hopefully I can have nice natural curls soon!!
Ajanae Doughty: I'm sooo interested in transitioning but I'm scared. My hair is naturally very wavy. I just trimmed my hair and straightened it but I'm gonna attempt to go natural now that my hair is healthy. You're motivating
Rolanda Jackson: Great tips, encouraging ..I have trimmed away at the straight hair but I still have to add perm rods to fake it because I have very loose curls but thick hair...been transitioning about 2 years now. but you have encouraged me to keep going. Thanks
Sonia Santana: So i just tried Shea Moisture's transitioning kit, and it left my hair super dry and unmanageable. What were some of your favorite natural hair transitioning products?
Arandolph: I'm so happy I stumbled on your video. Your tips of transitioning give me the motivation not to reach for that perm. My last perm was October 1st. But girl natural hair is a lot of work. I want my natural curl sooo bad, my sisters and cousins are all natural excepy me. But lets be honest the process is painful. To come home and do my hair every day is a lot for me. I'm simple when it comes to my hair, roller set wrap and go. I dont use curling or flat iron on my hair, I pin curl so really its the perming. But you give me the inspiration I need to stay on this journey. so I'm going to see how long I can do this. I'm hoping for my hair to be the length it is now in the middle of my back if longer but curlyWe'll see...oh what do you think about Wen products? Have you ever tried it?
amneris rosa: This video is good and encouraging, I would begin my hair transition this week, gonna chop my hair short ♀️, have a lot of heat damage (no more heat♀️) and it's just curly at the top, hope my curls turn out like yours,
Jennifer Hemingway: I am 12 months post. Your tips are wonderful it lets me know that I am doing great with my transition. Thank you so much!
Invincible J: Fantastic video. Very motivating. The last time I relaxed is 2005 but I'm transitioning for the second time. I use the straightening iron too much by my hair could be in much better condition.
bacon metra: And girl your makeup is flawless it looks so great even your skin. I love how your make up looks so natural you don’t put it heavy to where you look like a manikin
Lilly Bizzo: Thanks for your words, its really helpfull all your tips. Im transitioning from Japanese straightening and its really really sucks. My hair fail a lot on last application so I decided never do any other quimical to change texture. Its a long journey, but Im happy to see my hair growing back naturally
Tionna Bradford: Wow this was so helpful I've been trying to convince my mom to transitions I have naturals curls I've never put perm or relaxer anything like that. She has a lot of heat damage this vid is awesome I will show her this vid
TheKaizoku19: Hi, thanks for your video. I'm currently transitioning and I'm not sure exactly how to properly maintain it. I'm finding it quite hard to comb my hair from the roots because my textures are so different so I just stick to brushing my hair with a soft brush and putting it all in one. Also, what would you use to oil your scalp if you ever did? Thanks!!!
KJersey67: This was the greatest natural hair care video that's on YouTube especially for someone like myself that's transitioning thank you so much for the information on how to care for your natural hair and that it doesn't have to be costly.I haven't been natural since I was 13 yrs old and now I'm 50 I currently have my hair in braids and I'm very excited about going natural but I would be lying if I said that I'm not nervous because its been so long since I was natural will I be able to handle this journey or do I really want to do this,no matter how I feel it is something that I am going to do and watching your video encouraged me to embrace it Thank You so much.
Tiffany Baker: thank you so much! all of the natural girls said they chopped their hair in order for it to grow, I'm not trying to look like a poodle lol. great tips!
jadecasssie: This video made me feel so much better, I'm transitioning and people have said some negative things about how my hair looks right now, aka no curls, stringy ends, ect. Hopefully things get better soon. Thanks again
Jay Bird: I haven't straightened my hair in almost 3 years because I'm so scared. I'm so close to being able to cut off the rest of relaxer it's so ugly and dry and straight I hateee them. I'm so thankful for women like you on YouTube and Instagram showing how beautiful your natural hair is. It helped me so much I've never wanted and loved my curls like I do now. These tips were super helpful btw!
SoLesliSaid: I think we kind of have a similar texture! Lol love your curlsss girl, & great tips ! I also make videos on curly hair ☺️
Jasmine Leigh: This helps me a lot I have always been a curly girl but my mum has been relaxing hers for 30 years I am helping her to tradition to her natural hair . Wish me luck
Laaiqa Muhammad: So glad i found this video because I've gotten a texturizer in my hair in October of 2016 and for my eighth grade prom I had to straighten it because I didn't have time to do any box braids, and that caused some major damaged because they had to keep going over and over with the curling iron. I would've chopped it all off but I was and still am afraid of it not looking right on me because everybody can't rock short hair. I know I'm ranting but I'm gonna def try this
SpiritedLove: I was going 4 months without straightening my hair and my hair was getting healthier. I then recently straightened it just cuz I wanted to go my progress. After I washed my hair out , my hair became DEAD I am so so hurt right now, I regret straightening my hair soooo much. I worked so hard and now it's like I have to start over and I feel like it looks worse than it ever did
Dr. Charity Maduagu: I love this video. I've been pressured into doing the big chop but i feel like I'm not ready
Marlina Maxcine McCurvy: i started my hair journey about 3months ago..after seeing this vid i know i can reach my goal
박Tasia: I recently just started transitioning and I noticed my hair is very similar to yours. The hair on the back of my head had very defined curls like your hair but the front is a little less defined with heat damage.. I'm not sure what curl type I am but it looks just like yours... I'm transitioning because when I was younger my hair was really long (near my butt when straightened) and then I started cutting it and straightening it all the time and it's been stuck at just past my shoulder blades for almost four years. I also hate having to waste 3 hours of my day straightening my hair.
marcie laboy: This gives me hope as I am just starting to transition my daughter's hair. THANK YOU!!
Red Rose: Currently in that awkward phase rn! I have a mix of waves and curls and have some really awkward straight bits rn, but my hair has improved so much in the last year and I'm starting to get into gels and trying some of those out rn
Alexis Highgate: my 2 best friends and i just chopped off all of our stright ends today and we're starting our hair journey and honestly it hasnt really set in that i am natural now when i have been strightening my hair since day 1 and i was planing on going natural when i was in college but things turned out a little differently considering i am just starting highschool (10th grade) but im really glad they gave me the insparation to do so
Kae Whitlock: this video was really encouraging, im low key scared of how my hair is gonna turn out but i brought the shea moisture transitioning kit. so im actively trying to transition
Alexis Esmeralda: Love, love, love this. So inspirational :)
Alicia Mendsey - Natural Hair Journey & Goals: I have been natural for 10 years. I made a few videos on my channel about transitioning and I have written two books about it. They are on Amazon. The books are called Dynamic Curly and Dynamic Curly Extended. Dynamic Curly Extended is a paperback book on Amazon.
RebeLSmith: Love all your tips! This video should be the orientation video for everyone who is transitioning/natural! Great job! And thanks! P.s. Your curls are gorgeous!!!
N.iahhh: I'm only 13 and I used to straighten my hair all the time, my hair was super long and super curly and I ruined it ☹️ I'm happy I noticed at my young age that curly is beautiful and I'm starting to get my curls back thank lord ‼️ sometimes my hair just gets very aggravating but watching this videos is making me ready for my curls and throw away them straighteners‼️ I've been (it's been 7 months)
Fabiola Lyan: I'm still holding on to my ends but I'm almosttt there. Your video was so informative
Lisbeth Martinez: Nice video hun!! I've been transitioning for 7 months and my hair is breaking like crazy. I've tried everything and i'm giving up.
Joi Benjamin: This was so helpful thank you so much!!
Dia Monet: I was so close to giving up on transitioning before this video, thank u.
Devon Berry: I love this video. I have recently decided to transition this week but I am greying significantly and I want to dye it. I have not had a perm for 3 months now because I wear protective styles quite often (crotches/weaves/wigs) but my natural hair has a very tight curl pattern. How do I get it to loosen up and keep my hair moisturized
All Dolled Up Salon and Stores: Loving natural hair life!
Taylor Denae: I'm currently transitioning from heat damage and perms .. this video gave me hope! Lol
LaShumbra Bates: This was super helpful! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
vee c: Great video How often should I trim my ends?
Riyahh Belle: This helped so much because I am too scared to do a chop I am not ready
Lovely Soul: I tried a wash and go for the first time last night, and I cried..... my damage is so bad because of a lifetime of straightening with heat and I colored my hair last year. This is encouraging but I’m so discouraged because I neglected it for so long.
Platinum Branch: Great tips! Thanks so much for sharing!
Nique Monro: Watching Her Gave Me So Much Motivation That I SUBSCRIBED !!! .. Im In My Transition Phase Right Now . :)))
DaShan: Good tips. Thanks for sharing. Suggestion....perhaps instead of rotating out products when they are not working the same anymore, try using a clarifying shampoo. I'm currently listening to The Science of Black Hair and this is one of the items that she speaks to directly. The lack of response in the hair may be just a result of a bit of product build-up! Thanks again for the video.
Jacqueline Crescenti: Thanks a lot! You have motivated me a lot ❤️ #LetsLoveOurCurls
Melanina Beleza: Any tips for those us just starting? Like I have only two inches of natural hair and about 20-22 inches of relaxed hair but it's been 3 months since my last relaxer
Shanya: Great video and beautiful hair. These tips were very helpful. I'm going to subscribe. So you straighten your hair at all? I had so much heat damage that it looked like I had a relaxer. I've narrowed down straightening my hair to 2x a year but I don't know if I should cut out the flat iron all together. I don't want to, I like wearing my hair straight but I love my natural curls even more. Do you straighten at all? What's your experience with it?
Cassie Smith, LCDC, MSW: love this, especially #10!!!! needed that reminder
Ms. B.: Any helpful advice for damaged hair? I’ve worn a pixie cut for so long that my hair is starting to starting to thin more?
Josmarian Gonzalez: you are inspired me to follow this decision this new step for my hair #begining #transition
Mya Guzman: My mom has been blowdrying and straightening my hair since I was 5 and now i am 13 and i want to know what is best to get my curls back
Izzy Vasquez: I have dyed the shiiit out of my hair. Bleach, color, you name it ive done it. I’ve had it permanently straightened as well since I hated my hair being wavy/curly. As I’ve gotten older it’s gotten curlier, but I’ve decided to not dye or bleach my hair, use twist outs to help train it, and actually condition my hair. I’m excited!
Jeniffer Garcia: Thank you so much for this video. It is very organized. A lot of videos are all over the place. <3
Chizi Oranu: I remember when I had natural hair and I was really tender headed. Because I was tender headed my hairstylist left me because I would always cry. My mom and my grandma just mess with my hair and put a whole lot of perms in my hair and my hair is so damage to the point where if you comb it once a lot of my hair would fall off. I try telling them I wanna go natural and they never listen, they always think that they know the best for my hair. now that I have new stylists they tell me not to put perms and relaxers in my hair because it would severely damage it. Right now I have my hair in braids and when i take off my braids it's always sooooo dry. What should I doooo ???
afeni laws: i love your tips!! im currently transitioning and i have a few questions :// please help
Zakiya Nafisa: I just know I need to do a big chop I’ve been holding on to my length for 2 years now and this time around day 4 after watching this video I still want to chop. I want the best for my hair. Just the idea of starting over when your hair is already pass you shoulder lol
Iaisha_mua: My hair is naturally curly and I always had it flat ironed i started to love my curly hair in the end of 2016 because I used to get bullied in middle school for my curls and now that I'm wearing it the front is wavy the crown is fluffy and get knotted easily and the back is curls like yours but a little bit bigger and I want the front and middle to be the same as the back
Lily Jr.: thank you so much for this video. you are beautiful and I love your curls!! slayyyyyyyy
Kassidy: Two questions: 1. How long had you been relaxing your hair before and 2. What type of hair do you have? (4c...etc)
Danielle Sims: This is a big help. Nobody ever said no heat so thanks so much
멜라: i texturized my hair for the first time since i was a little kid a little over month ago and the only thing that happened is my roots became straight but the rest of hair is curly (but the curls loosened slightly) how would i be able to transition back to natural?
Elishiva Sharitye: You hair is a lot like my natural hair <3 great video!
First Name Last Name: Relaxers should be banned. I regret begging my mom to relax my hair when I was 8. If only I knew!
