This was how i failed. You know um, so this is actually my second time trying the bantu knot and um. The last time i did it was in. I think i was instilling university yeah and that's about four five years ago yeah. So my hair was a lot shorter um. At that time and um it wasn't as full, but i was basically looking for hitler's goals and i did it back then in school. I think i only did about once or twice and ever since then i haven't done it, but now my hair is a lot more longer and fuller, and so i tried to give it a try, because i i was tired of wearing my hair straight um. I needed some curves and i didn't want to use those rulers what they call bendy rollers. Yes, i just wanted to do bantu knot so um. I was really struggling with this honestly, you guys i was struggling with rolling this thing and twisting it i'm just rolling it and putting it in place. I was struggling with the parts.

Thank you in advance. I know you have clicked that button below okay and leave me a comment in the comment section. If you have any questions for me about my hair, i mean i've been rocking my hair for about two three weeks now and um. I'Ve gotten lots and lots of compliments from people on whatsapp, even random people i meet on the road in the car. You know doing taxi in the market everybody has been like. Is that your hair is that your hair is that your hair - and i just keep smiling i'm like yeah? This is going to tell me that everybody i mean a lot of ladies, want their hair to just grow, long and full and healthy. But the question is: are you really to put in the work? Are you ready to put in the work? Rather, i mean because there's one thing to wish: oh i wish my hair was that i wish my hair was like your hair wish. My hair was full, like your hair wish. My hair was long like your hair, but um when it comes to detangling your hair. At night, before you sleep, will you do that when it comes to you know, moisturizing your hair, when your hair is dry, are you going to do that? Are you going to invest your small coins in some good um, hair cream hair products, and even your own, shampoo and conditioner at home? Are you willing to do that see? A lot of people are not willing to do that. All they want to do is to sit in one place and see. Somebody'S hair is long and they'll be like. Oh. I wish my hair was like that you need to put in the work a lot of these people with long hair, actually do a little work behind the scenes that you don't even know about, and so, when you ask them, what do you do to your health? They feel reluctant telling you, because it's not like you're going to do it anyway. Yeah is the truth, is the truth. I know this for sure a lot of times you they ask you. What are you doing for your hair and you say: oh i'm using this. I'M using that the person is already giving up already i'd be like. Ah, i beg your back. I know your feet smile. You have to carry my head again. I mean that's the norm, but the next time she sees another person with long hair, she's interested. Oh, what are you using your hair? I mean you have to put in the work you have to go beyond. I wish my hair was long like your own. I wish my hair was this. Now you have to understand. Our hair are not the same. A lot of us, our hair, grow at different paces and we all have like different textures of hair and you know um. So it's it's not right. You know to want to compare your hair to somebody's hair or to be angry, that your hair is not growing at the that somebody else's hair is growing. You see you have to trust your own process and be patient with your hair and find out exactly what it needs. You see i'm going to be coming up with um a video next after this i'm talking about um how to really why your hair is not going as long as you want it um. I feel like one of the biggest reasons why your hair will not grow. Um not like your hair is not green. I mean why your hair is not growing as long as you want. It is breakage your hair. If your hair is breaking as fast as it's growing, you cannot retain length and the moment you cannot retain length. Your hair will just be stoned like it will remain on that shoulder level and it will grow past that i've been able to grow. My hair past my shoulder length even all the way to my brow length behind my back so which is um commendable, actually and um. I didn't think some of the things i started doing to my hair was working until i saw how long my hair got. I mean look at my hair in front in about two three years back, my hair. Wasn'T this long. It was about half this length. You see, because i literally did like a big chop. One time i sat down and started cutting my hair with scissors anyway, i do have this that i don't advise that you do that right now. You should get a stylist to do that. For you, though, i took my time so i think i did it right right now. All my hair are the same length and it's been going like that for the past four or five years, my hair from the back to the front are exactly the same length. You see so i'm really excited about how much growth i've been able to gather over the past years and i'll be sharing all my tips with you, but don't forget. I also have a new video um, not new. I i think i filmed this video about six. Seven months back and the video has gotten about 12 000 views and a lot of thumbs up, because i really you know shared everything i i knew at that time about hair growth and what a lot of people were doing wrong about their hair and, if you're Interested i'm going to leave the link um up here, so you guys can check that out, of course, after watching this video, okay, so um yeah! If you watch that video, i feel, like you, get an idea of what you're doing wrong right now to your hair and uh and how to move forward. I talked a lot about what you're doing wrong and how to do it better. You know to you know, grow healthy and long hair. You see so foreign um, so guys, i'm finally done like it took me about um, say an hour or more. I i'm not really sure, but i know it definitely took me more than an hour. So i tried to leave the back of the hair to be flat because um, i remember the the first time i did this. It can be quite painful when you're sleeping you know when everywhere is like you know, has bounced or knot. So i just leave left the back of the hair to be flat so that i can't lay down properly. So i went out with the hair um the next day, and this is me after two days trying to take down the curls you can see. The hair has been through a lot already. Some of the curls were already falling off, you see and they didn't quite curl up the way i wanted. As you can see, some really have the curls like some of them were really coily, and i liked it. You can see the majority of them were just like flat and it had no curls whatsoever, so this is the trial and how i failed at it. I'M never going to give this another try some of that time, but i feel, like my hair, has been through a lot these past two weeks so um after this i'm just going to put the hair in one more protective style and let it be for the Next couple of months again, look at that, like okay, that thing had no chorus at all like so i'm just unraveling and you know separating the chorus dividing them into about two or three um, depending on how big or chunky they are, and i will do the Same thing for all my hair and start to detangle again with a big comb. At this point, i realized that my hair was a bit dry um, so i went in with my living conditioner and applied some of my hair cream. My soulmate always always used that. So make cream my favorite, as you can see, i was struggling with some of the tip. You want to take your time if you're doing this process, don't just rip your hair apart, because you might break your hair in the process. Just be very gentle and you know be patient until you're able to detangle each um sections of the hair completely. So you don't break your hair in the process, okay, uh, um and in the process. I also gave myself a quick, um scalp massage, because this is a great way of stimulating blood flow in your scalp and then in return. You know leads to hair growth, so this is so important if you haven't started massaging your scarf, you should like a lot of people, have been talking about massaging, dress cup and how they've gotten um. You know, hair growth and just try give it a try. I mean you love it. I love when my hair is being massaged like the feeling is amazing, so why not um definitely try. So this is me just dangling the hair some more. I love the curls. At the end of the day, it looked really really cool. Um yeah this is it you guys.
