Keep your hands off!

While some of you are busy worrying about other people touching and playing with your hair, I am worrying about myself. I keep touching, playing, fumbling and twisting my hair! I need to stop this because after on-going tension it just breaks off. This has happened so many times. I do it subconciously, maybe when I am bored or on my laptop. But it needs to stop before it turns into a habit and I have no edges left to play with. Yes, you read it right. my edges! my edges!

You know about my edges. Fragile? Yes. But my fingers can reach.
I need help.

Current hair goal: KEEP MY HANDS OUT OF MY HAIR.

It's good to start building healthy habits earlier on in your regimen.

List of 4C Hair Youtubers

There is a general lack of representation of 4C hairlistas on Youtube. I think it is important to increase representation, not just because equality is good, but also because the most kinkier texture probably deserves more help and advice. This is the reason why I joined Youtube so that I could share my help. Also, it seems like we probably need more advice than style - which means lengthier videos. We should also remember that there are many women still transitioning and we hope that more women enter this journey - so many women are still trying to grasp the basics!

I compiled a list of 4C naturals:
Justmeand4c
Chizi Duru
4C Hair Chick
Jemy1415
Yunik Ritini
NaturallyNerdful
DiscoveringNatural
Sharterrkar03
IslandEssence
SecretlyLimitless
Latifatumi
NaturalMe4C

For me personally, while transitioning I have been watching natural hair videos from various youtubers with different textures. I did not have a delusioned view of what my hair could and could not do. I just knew it. I knew that my texture was not like hers and that there was nothing wrong with that. We should embrace diversity. My hair can do certain things that other hair textures cannot do. My hair has tighter curls and therefore probably needs more help and there is nothing wrong with that. I just need to learn and accept the differences. My hair is 4C and I love it.

Trim time!

So it's been six months and I need to trim my hair. Next wash day.
I have specifically set my trimming time to every 6 months as the last time was in September. This is good because I can feel some hindrance in growth somewhere. I just know it. I can feel it. My hair speaks to me. It's time. Dusting will be fine.
