What'S up kings, it is nappy foo. All up on your screen. Today is a that nap life video. It is time for me to take care of contour. Contour is freshly out of a two to three month, braided protective style that although the braids were very beautiful, it did wreck habit on my hair, i'm going to talk to y'all about it today, as i get into this wash day, y'all ready, happy food checking in Later this week i was inspired by the book of first corinthians, chapter 13, verses, 6 and 7.. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trust, always hopes, always perseveres, amen and just like that, my hair is down. So i haven't looked in the mirror to see how's it looking. Let'S look in the mirror, i'm so scared. Look at my edges, y'all, i'm so scared, but we're going to do it all right face it. This way, do you see some breakage that here just decided disconnected from the top yeah. This side has all boom and this side's a little different. You see it's a little bit further back here and we have this up here all right. Well, it's time to start restoring her back to her glory and back to her glory. She shall be okay, so braids are all the way out. I went straight into a pre-poo this night and then i let it sit overnight and now here we are taking my hair down from how i had it for the pre-poo. I am going to now remove all shed hair very important step after you've had a long-term protective style, remove them shed hairs. Yeah, i'm telling you me personally. I don't throw anything that has water on to contour until i get shedded hairs out until i get it out to my liking, i'm not using no conditioner, i'm not using the water. It'S just straight regular oil and my fingers. We love just using oil to remove any shed hair after a long-term protective style. It gives me great slip now i'm going to go into wash day because of how long i've had this in i know i need a clarifier so using the sofa, eight shampoo and combining that with the oe dad moisturizing shampoo, we're gon na have ourselves a good Little wash day in case you're wondering how do i wash my hair? I got this clip for you girl, my favorite way to shampoo my hair and many of y'all have tried it and told me. You love it too, so i'm going to keep on talking about it, i'm going to keep on sharing it, because the world must know okay, all right, so my hair is completely washed y'all. As you can see, the water is still drip dripping from it. Now it's ready for the deep conditioning step. I am going to combine two different hair masks together. Actually, i'm going to use the tgin honey miracle hair mask and i'm going to use it along with the shea moisture intensive hydration hair mask. Did you see something they both have in common? They both have honey, yes, indeed, well. The shea moisture actually makes my hair feel quite moisturized. The honey miracle mask makes my hair feel moisturized also, but what i love about it is the slip that it gives me. Whatever i didn't catch, when i was moving shed hair, a deep conditioner has a lot of slip, will catch it for you, okay, all right! So now i'm just going to pretty much apply this through my hair and then after i apply it. I'M going to take a comb you're going to use a combination of a wide tooth comb and did my clip just break. Oh, my gosh girl anyway, i'm going to use a combination of a wide tooth comb and the forehead brush is called a boy head brush. You know, let me tell you something i used to call this brush. Don'T laugh at me, y'all the white girl brush, because whenever i was introduced to this brush i always saw white girls using it on their hair girl. So i thought it was just for them. Little did i know my hair likes it too. Anyway, i'm going to use the white toothbrush and the bristle brush to basically detangle the hair, i'm going section by section while i'm doing outside the shower, because i really want to make sure i have full control because i just came from a long-term protective style. My scalp is already very sensitive and there's a lot of what shaded hair is stuck in between. So i want to make sure i'm doing this very thoroughly, taking my time and doing it right all right. So after i'm done with all this, i am going to basically make sure i get some edges area. Okay, put some on there and i'm going to let this set all right. So this is my hair after i rinsed everything off so off camera. I rinsed the conditioner and everything i had to sit on my hair for an hour so underneath heat i did use my heating cap now, i'm applying my favorite leave-in conditioner, which y'all already know, is the giovanni leave-in conditioner, and i'm going to pretty much pull my Hair to the back, keeping it simple, keeping it low tension. As you can see, i'm not slicking nothing down, i'm not tying nothing down, i'm just keeping real simple! And this time i'm going to let my hair dry and stretch, i am going to tie a scarf over my head just to kind of give it some slickness, because i'm not putting any gel. I'M not going to put any of that stuff on my hair because it really needs a break from anything that will cause tension or give it some strong hold. I don't want none of it. Okay, so i'm going to pretty much put it and put it back in this ponytail as you can see, and i'm going to tie it into a scarf. This is how much hair that i lost y'all again, i have the braids in i want to say from november to december, in a little bit of january, almost two months roughly two months. This is how much hair i lost all together. This is the shed hair, along with the hair that came out from when i did a deep detangling with the comb in the brush. Um might look like a lot, but i'm actually fine with this amount. It'S it don't look like a lot to me. Okay, it looks quite reasonable. Okay, thank you, lord, and i'm just giving you a close-up of the areas that were damaged before we continue. Let me apologize to your eyes. I know you look at this robe like wait. What what is that people wearing? Oh girl, this thing looks like it is hurt. It does look, hurt you're right. I give you that, but let me tell you something: this is the most comfortable robe i've ever owned in my whole entire life. So this is the area that i got the damage in y'all. This is where the braid disconnected from the top, like the section, is right diagonal from the ending of my brow. It disconnected from there all the way down to the back of my ear. It was gone, the hair said bye, but don't worry, don't worry, we're doing things for it to come back and say hi all right. We shall is don't mind me y'all, so some things that i have been doing to restore her back to her glory is using hair growth, oils and sprays. Yes, i have introduced myself to this world, stimulating oils, stimulating sprays. I got this set. This bundle from hulu naturals i've been testing it out so far, so good other things that i'm also doing is getting back to my a or verdict days. So i've been using amla masks, i've been incorporating the henna and all those things i used to do almost every wash day that i kind of stopped doing and got more into the store-bought stuff, because the store-bought stuff is easier. It'S already made for you, ain't gon na do nothing else, but no i'm going back to my roots, the fenugreek, the razzle, the bentonite. All of that i'm going to get back to be using it consistently every week, because that is when, when i was using a verdict, hair care methods um predominantly that's when my hair felt the strongest and it just felt like a queen. Okay, right now, of course, because it got damaged, it don't feel as good as it felt when i was using any inverting method, but we're going to get back into it. I'M going to also keep my hairstyles really simple y'all if i do slick back hairstyles like this one, i'm not going to use a lot of hair product, i'm not going to use a lot of gel i'm going to use a little bit slick it down. Tie my head tie and call it a day, because one thing i'm going to tell you right now in this 2022 in any any years to come. Overall, the goal in life is to never go backwards, but to move forward, although i might have had a little hiccup in a row with the damage the braids caused me, i'm going to keep on moving. You know i've already licked my wounds and now i'm ready to heal. You know then, and one thing else i'm going to do is make sure i do not sacrifice the health of my hair for a hairstyle. That'S exactly what i did here and i always talk about not doing it yeah. I know sometimes it's hard to practice what you preach right, okay! Well, i didn't listen to my damn self and advice. I gotten from other people too, but word to the wise. Is enough and not for wise end up okay boom off camera added my little pearl tongue, ponytail y'all, and it need a little something something so pony tilt it up there we go probably gon na tie my scarf back on, because i need to get this part. A little flatter, but anyhow i'm low maintenance. It is so, if i'm not doing this low ponytail, then i'm using stuff like this, a half wig, so it'll, be like right here and my hair is pulled back and there's a braid right here. I might put the comb into that or most of the time, i'm putting my comb into the stocking cap, the next stocking cap and that's it low maintenance. I don't want definitely want no tension in my front area, not my crown area, not my nape area, the most sensitive areas, okay, and that is it y'all. These braids were beautiful. As you can see, i was rocking them all the way out in hawaii, which is why i even got these braids. They are gorgeous. I love the color, you know just the aftermath was quite a beat, but it's okay. If i get this look again, i know what not to do. Okay, and now we have come to today's snapchat question, i want to know from you: have you ever had a protective style direct havoc on either your edges, your crown, your nape or any part of your hair? Okay, let us know what style that was and how you recovered from it. Trust me, your response would definitely help the next natural out thanks in advance. I hope you enjoyed today's video if you did, please go ahead and help your girl out by hitting that subscribe button and make sure you hit the bell right next to it. So you can be notified the next time that i am all up on your screen. Also, if you're bored during the week come on and hang out with me on instagram snapchat facebook, all of that uh. All of that - and i will catch you on the next one. Until then remember my sister, my cousin, my friends, team kinks, i said team kings in order to have healthy hair. You gots to do healthy things consistently, even when you think nobody's watching and before checking out deuces, you

SheRea DelSol: For fine hair like ours, I just realized protective styles with added hair is a NO GO. They cute, they fly, but my hair be going bye bye and they aren't worth it lol. Wig life is the only life for me now (I never use glue or gel to tack them down)

Nikute Williams: I definitely did have some box braids that wreak havoc on my edges, that was when I decided that protective styles are not very protective at all and said no more. I just wash and conditioned and wore wash n goes or twists out , my edges have since recovered.

C. Sexton: The lace fronts are making me a little thin around the edges. I started using henna once a month and I use spray-on castor oil. So far so good. I like the restoration routine you used. Your hair didn't shed too bad and still looks healthy.

DNICEANDFAM: I experienced damage from a sew-in. Could have been due to the fact that I was transitioning and hadn't cut my relaxed ends off yet. I love the braids you wore!

dralandra larkins: The fact that these styles are called "protective" is weird to me....they dont protect our hair at all. Theres always some damage done when wearing braids with added hair. A real protective style is one that entails ONLY YOUR NATURAL HAIR :) I have fine 4b/4c hair and a twist style with just my hair works wonders as a "protective" style

Cactus Flower: Hijabs are my go-to protective style because they never robbed me from my hair but rather contribute to my hair growth. Wigs and hair extensions always took my hair out even as kid and my mom and other stylists always thought I was cutting my hair . Now as an adult I’m actually allergic to them as well as relaxers—-my scalp gets hives! I started wearing hijabs ever since my big chop 3 years ago. Best decision I ever made for myself!

Danyielle O: Yup! Back to back braided protective styles broke my hair pretty bad. I am now trying to nurse it back by weekly deep conditioning and VERY low maintenance.

TheMiss600: I only have large knotless braids for up to 6 weeks now and that works brilliantly.

Chiquita Federico: I did constant protective styling over the course of about 7yrs.. Would keep my style in 4-5 wks, wear my hair down a week and do it again.. I did this until the shops closed down in the panni.. My hair at the time I stopped "protective styling" was to my natural waist.. I noticed after a few weeks of wearing my hair free that it didn't have the same life it once had.. I did all I could with it for about a year then finally went to see a curl specialist instead of just my regular stylist.. Because now I wanted to see them curls, the way I used to.. I was diagnosed with extensive cuticle damage and dehydration.. Though I washed my hair weekly while styled and took out monthly, for my hair, that was a disaster.. All those inches I grew and was able to retain were useless.. Leading me to a big chop in Oct 2021.. And where my profile picture is from.. So though I had some new growth and didn't have to chop my hair all the way off, I did lose at least 12-15inches of hair.. I'm now on a health as well as growth journey, washing my hair twice a week, using botanical gels, styling in solely wash and go's.. And my hair is flourishing.. It is now looking like the head of hair I'd had as a teen.. I'm now nearing 40 and only about 6months into a brand new hair journey.. If nothing else, this panni made me relearn how to truly take care of my hair.. Silver lining.....

Melvina G Davis: Braids with added hair always breaks and or weakens my hair. Love the styles, can't wait them.

HOPROPHETA: I used foam to give me a sleek ponytail look. Came out great. Liked it so much I applied foam several more times during the week. Big mistake. Caused tangles and what felt like locked clumps. Lost a lot of hair. Babying my hair for it to be restored now.

Only1Sosa: I've never had those kind of cornrows as they do look like they pull, But I had box braids and a whole plat fell off, I have a perfect square of baldness that I'm trying to nurse back taking its time but getting there. Thanks for sharing as Always and have a week as beautiful as your soul ❤

Serena Mitchel: Yes Sis!!! I trusted a hairdresser to do me a sew-in weave. It was my first time both having a weave and using that hairdresser... Not only did she make me look more Yardie than the compere in the film Dancehall Queen, she did it way too tight and charged me more than her original quote... I couldn't bear the pain and took it out after a few days. Half my scalp came out with it too. I rectified the problem by sticking to doing my own braids and NEVER having a weave again.

MsNaturale Michelle: I once left braids for 3 months and my hair was so thin after so I cut it. A lot of us fine haired 4c can not do that. Coarse hair people can and retain lots of length. My hair is super thick now about shoulder length and I only wear wash and go's now with no gel or maybe a custard.

marvinandjosh1: I got breakage along my edges from back-to-back knotless braids installs. I now ask the braider to not make them so tight around my hairline, leave out my baby hairs, and I limit the number of braid installs to twice a year. I use an ayurvedic and JBCO oil blend on my edges and they have recovered nicely.

Ginia Maxwell: I’m going through the same thing! May God restore our crowns!!!

Kami Bohannon: Braids use to damage my hair also but since I have done my own braids I have noticed minimal damage.

Mary Clarke: Please just love your god giving hair! Let's just have a moratorium on weaves, faux locs, passion twists, etc. We need to stop and just embrace your natural beauty.

Sophie K Davis: Definitely had my edges snatched from wigs and weaves. It got really bad when I started braiding my hair too. I just stopped using extensions completely and used a derma roller tool to get my edges back. This worked miracles and have a full hairline xx

Mercy Agorh: Honestly learning how to master a protective style that truly protects is key, using less hair is key, loose roots, and tight up dos is key, I learnt the hard way

Timetrae: Yes I experienced some havoc on my hair with Crochet braids TWICE!! First time the person putting them in didn’t care about my hair at all as she was putting in the crochet and puking the synthetic hair through I heard so much hair popping. I told her that I heard my hair snapping and she was like oh no that is my nails! Nope I was right ...I had SO MUCH BREAKAGE!! That was in my relaxed days. In my natural days I had a friend put in crochets and I asked her not to braid too tight. She said well you want your style to last right? Well it lasted but two sections of my edges didn’t! Had a bald spot on each side!! Never again!!

Gipsy Spirit: Let's get rid of the myth: braiding is NOT a protective hairstyle. I remember sitting at the salon and watching 90% of ladies after the removal of braids have obvious hairline/bald spots from the tension of the style. The longer they kept braiding the more their hairline would go further north and the texture get more rough and thinner. Like what you like but be prepared for the consequences.

Nakiea R: I had faux passion twists and I had an allergic reaction to the hair. My scalp was inflamed and broke off severely after having them only for 5 days. I could only cowash and finger detangle for a month before my scalp healed.

Tennille Bowens: I've learned that only large or extra large braids are best for me and my fine 3c/4a hair. And I do them myself so that I can control how much tension is on my hair. I learned from experience. I had to use deep conditioning, auyervedic DIYs and time to get my hair back right. Now I'm rethinking these braids I was gonna do tomorrow lmao!

Nichelle Loh: Loosing my edges w box braids for years unfortunately. Since I went natural I tried them again and had bald spots. They've finally grew back in thank God! I decided I am not messing w fake hair and I am no longer doing any tension styles. My hair has been on its best behavior ❤️!

Cindi Green: I had some corn rows with feed in hair. Those things were soooo tight that I could barely close my eyes. Lol. The breakage when I took them out was too much. I was so mad at myself for allowing her to braid my hair that tight. Never again. That was about 2 years ago. I have had braids since but I am my own advocate.

DoublePortion4ME: I'm restoring my hair by using clove water twice a day I'm two weeks in and I see progress plus I love the smell. I don't boil my cloves just put then in my spray bottle and shake the goodness out. I don't manipulate my hair anymore except for wash day. May our edges be restored in Jesus name!

Sable 711: Good to see you and hope you enjoyed your travels. The braids were beautiful. I've never had extensions and probably would not try them at this point because I have alopecia.

EnYonce Davis: Hello Grace. That thin spot in the front made my heart drop. I hope you have success in growing your hair back to a healthy state.

Tiahna Rodriguez: My sister has experienced great success with using weaves and braids with added hair to grow her hair, but for some reason these styles destroy my hair, even though we both have the same hair. I prefer wash n’gos and loose twists and my hair does just fine.

Lilyan Kay: Haha I got box braids about 7 years ago and they ripped almost half head off. Never got box braids again since that day. Now I did get some knotless braids done in Kenya three mos ago and they haven’t damaged my edges at all because they start the braid with your natural hair and the braiding hair is soft and light weight

NM Pearls: It's best not to leave a protective style for no longer than 5-6 weeks and smaller braids puts alot of stress on your hairs strands.

IDFWY: I use to leave my extension braids in for six months I have locs now and best decision I ever made regarding my hair

Terri Sargent: I do protective styles all the time, but the styles that leave my edges out. The edges blend in with the hair so I use no edge control products just moisture products. I shampoo my edges once a week; this seems to work for me.

searphhoney: I recently took my hair out of braids. I had it in for a month. Not sure why but a lot of my hair fell out from the root. A LOT. I have bald spots & my hair is drastically thin. I'm so devastated & traumatized. I laugh, but I cry on the inside. My scalp never felt irritated, so I have no clue what caused this. I do my own hair & this has never happened before.

Leah McLean Tewari: Take us on the Ayurvedic journey with you! Love all your videos and Ayurveda is icing on the cake!

El Wi: Continue to half a joyful ( some call me silly) attitude! Keeps you YOUNG ❤️❤️

NickySplinta24: Saaame for me! I love my braids but had to take a break to work on those edges.

T B: First time watching and listening. You are hilarious. Too funny. Too funny. Keep it up Sista-Lady! Keep it up and I wish you continued success.

T Fleming: Hey Sis. Just wondering if you can do a review on clove water for hair growth and reduced shedding. I tried it for 1 week and noticed more full and less breakage. By the way love your videos

I'm Carolann: For only one month I had my hair in a cute crochet style. I regret getting that style now. Those braids broke my hair off the edges and my crown area. My new comeback for my hair is amla fenugreek and my favorite coconut oil. Then after my deep condition a ACV rinse for my scalp. Invest in some wild growth hair oil. That will grow your hair and leave it thick. Happy growing our hair is our glory God bless you all ❤️.

Alantai: Great video! I am definitely looking forward to your Ayurvedic hair videos. The first video of yours that I watched was your henna video and I’ve been hooked on henna ever since! And to answer your napchat question I don't think I've had a protective style that damaged my hair. But I have definitely neglected my hair while it was in a protective style

El Wi: I like low maintenance of ponytail and half-wig …no tension on the edges ❤️❤️

Mungu Akubariki: Nappy Fu.... just seen this video and was about to scream wagging my bony finger at you then I remembered We are all sinners That hair style is one of Lifes temptations that come with clear red horns but we still fall in the trap...

Brandi Thomas: The hair oil once a day on the spots massage them before bed you’ll have growth in a week it’s will grow back fast long as it’s kept moist

LA Slim: I was going to do some braids next week…. Now I am rethinking it. Hmmmm. Be blessed. Have a great week.

Felicia Dunn: Braids actually rip my hair out. I end up losing way too much hair. I have very fine strands and medium density hair. Losing a palm full of hair is ridiculous!

Pretoria Afro: Not A Protective Style Issue For Me. I began to get lazy and threw my hair routine out the window. I am now backbite my routine and I will wash my hair twice a month vs 1 a month.

Sad Dam: There was a I braided only the front of my hair, and let the rest loose, since that was the style back in the day. My hair was braided so tight, that when I unravel the braids , I had no edge’s.

MsRouge2000: I put cornrows in my hair to go on vacation to Jamaica at the end of 2019 and yes they did break off my edges pretty bad so I will not be doing cornrows on my hair again however my edges have grown back in mostly.

Paula: Lol I know where you’re coming from with the robe, I have one the same old but very comfortable. Hair styles looks beautiful.

forestgirlasha: I have 5 weeks braid rule and learn this the hard way in high school in the 90s when wore my braids for 3 or 4 months. I had to cut my braids out most of the hair on the top of my head. Also have no gel, sprits and mousse rule for with my braids have I tell this to anyone who braids my hair that stuff destroys my scalp.

RPB: See … I need to get back to my henna and natural treatments too. I’ve completely stopped and have been using store products. Tonight I made some rice water and mixed it with my Manuka Honey deep conditioner. I’ll be digging out the oils and doing right. My hair is the shortest it’s been in years. And it’s my fault ‍♀️. But I just need to get back to what I know works✅ thanks for sharing!

Myesha: Have you tried to wear different styles of headwraps to give your hair a break? I have been wearing headwraps from The Wrap life and they are perfect for this season I have been in where I have embraced minimalism with my hair.

Jones T: I was -curing the end of my braids on tiny rollers and setting with hot water (not sure exact term) however, I was rolling too high and was damaging my real hair with the hot water My stylist noticed and I stopped.

B Martin: Crochet braids irritated my scalp and caused hair loss. I think I’m allergic to synthetic hair. What brand is that low ponytail?

911grooming: Top knot bun. Yes I wore it too much it was a go to for me. I added the marley hair, wigs but for me it stunted my crowns hair growth. I no longer do this and Thank God I am on a healthier life and hair journey. Drinking water green juices, herbal teas, healthy meal plan, exercise. So important for health overall. Low manipulation styles and seasonally trim my ends.Peace and Love!!

I S: Many years ago I tried a sew-in. It did not only look horrible, bit was so tight my sins were snatched. I took it off after two days and my edges have never again been as full as they were. Never ever again.

SB: Post partum shedding got my edges gone

ADee: I can't ever get a second day out of my slicked down ponytails. Any tips?

D: My fine hair can not do styles with individual braids or locs because that tension just snap my -ish right off. I can do cornrows and crochet method but individuals braids are a no-no for my edges ‍♀️

Truth Eternal: Thanks for sharing; and is that the "GreenBeauty" hair bottle?

metasymplocos: U have beautiful hair my sister!!

DragonFlies: Had box braids that it pulled out my edges and I already have thin hair.

Geministar616: I love Fulani braids but my edges cannot take the tension

Shara: Did you get knotless braids? I have an appointment this friday and my edges are fragile but I’ve been babying them for a while. I thought the knotless were less tension but now I’m thinking I should pass..

Ronni j: Braids can do all kinds of damage to type 4 hair

Doriann Hamer: i suggest tell your braider to put less hair around your edges, me doing that has serious made a difference over time

Mariam Sadiq: Great video!

Genevieve Philip: For me in general any kind of any extension, wigs, weaves NEVA help me they always caused more damage so I gave up and I have locs

Denysha Dials: Nope. Never seen anyone with long hair who wore them regularly—until YouTube. And YouTube is still the only place I see that.

China Jasmin: My alligator clips give out randomly too!!! I know my grip ain’t that strong?! I have about five left now. ‍♀️ I want my money back.

AW P: The braids were nice but they made them too thick...too much hair weighing and pulling on natural hair strands. Your hair still looks good though.

Marley Hill: Um... Braids, twists, and weaves that were too tight so took my hair out. Now I do then myself

Angelina Sealy: My girl, heyyyyy nappy fu

pre.occupied__: A cute scarf coulda bypassed the gel

Brandi Thomas: Also wear something knotless braids your texture hair is very sensitive to braids better to do box braids

Naruko Namikaze: I understand what you mean NAPPYFU with practice what you preach. I’m learning this lesson now. Those setbacks will turn into major comebacks. I’m glad you posted. ❤️ In the past, I got some tight braids that I had to spend probably 6 months growing my edges back. Since then, I don’t wear braids because I’m scared the braids will do the same thing to my head. Plus, people seem to be heavy handed on my head; and I definitely don’t like that at all. If I could do braids myself, I would wear braids. Eventually, I’ll learn to do braids. Right now, I’m good without wearing them, but I miss having them.

GROWSTRONG: Omg that’s a lot of shed hair I would cry!

Gill Perry: ‍♀️Pa ha ha ha ha oh my days I can't with you, byeeeeeeeeeee Girl don't watch that robe, we all low key got one of them we don't want to let go of

solarLola: Massaging my head while watching something helped which growth

solarLola: Please take a very long break from center parts

Treetop Treetop: Thanks for sharing

Lovina Care: Sis, it been almost 2 years since I've seen your videos I suggest you to cut your hair and start over, because there's no difference since then

Lili Jean: I am curious about something, but I don't know how to say it without being rude, since I do not really speak English. It's an honest question : Can you still call a hairdo a protective style even though it broke your hair? Is it just by habit that people say that? It seems that every time people wear braids and wigs and stuff they call it protective style even when it is not. In that case can it be just called a braided style or a "put away" style, since you put your hair away for a while ? I'm not sure if what I mean is clear. Anyways, I'm curious, because I don't really understand the concept. Thanks in advance

Doriann Hamer: super cute

DoublePortion4ME: @nappyfu have you tried Olaplex 3

Paula Cunningham: Nice video

Alisianaaxxx: i call itt a white girl brush too !

Mariah Thomas: Jesus is coming soon! Please turn to him before it’s too late! He loves you so much and wants to take away your pain.❤️ He died for your sins on the cross so that you can be forgiven through repentance and saved through faith in him alone. During this stressful time, He is the best stress relief. Pray and ask Him to save you and help you, and He will. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ‭‭Matthew 28-30 NIV

NADI NATURALS: I really feel frustrated today .. no one watching my videos and no new subscriber

Kay Jones: Happy Sunday.

Buggu: Anyone noticing her hair looks ways shorter than wen she started… wat ever she’s do. Ain’t working for her

Apara: I don't do protective styles on my hair, but crown area is a hot mess. I've been ill for almost a year, and although I've been washing my hair...I haven't been deep conditioning/doing protein treatments/detangling/seeing my stylist properly. My poor crown is so thin and balding and I'm so sad!!!!!!! It's my most sensitive area, and I was gaining control before I got sick. I've been feeling better lately (maybe that means my new meds are working ), so hopefully, I can start back on my regiment.
