First of all, she is young!!! There’s not One Hen on this post, that has not had to Start Over Again!!! We live and we learn!! Right On Baby Girl!!! Nice and Sweet, and Easy…✊
So I just posted the video earlier today of this going woman confessing to using wigs, weaves, braids on her hair. Her hair is in a lot worse condition than what you see here in this pic. Now I’m sure the stylist probably used heat and/or harsh chemicals to achieve this look. Which in turn is still damaging to her hair. Its such a shame that so many black women suffer hair loss and alapecia! No need to touch what God already put his paint brush on!
I was thinking the same think. I don’t think you should relax someones hair who already has alopecia. Honestly they would have been better off just putting a wig on it. My cousin has alopecia and she stopped relaxing her hair and uses Rogaine now and her hair grew back. The only thing is you have to use Rogaine for the rest of your life or the hair will just thin out again.
My mom has alopecia. She stopped perming her hair and I would sew it I. And her hair cane back just fine. Her edges are better than ever. Its all in the application and maintenance.
Let this just be a lesson to all black women repeatedly getting weaves , braids and other “protective” styles. We love for our hair to be tight and gelled down until years laters we notice our hairlines receding. Her hair looks way better and I’m sure it boosted her confidence.
P.S. If you already have thinning edges (but not as bad) black castor oil & hair , skin & nail pills do wonders for the healthy state of your scalp.
Although a cover up, this lady can now wear her own hair with confidence and look good. Its obvious she got her dead ends trimmed and old color removed and can now get continuous treatments until her hair grows out into a beautiful cut! Im sure the before and after pics really helped somebody and educated them about the dangers of tension on the hair. You must tell stylist to not put tension on your hair especially the edges, give your hair a rest and keep your hair deep conditioned between styles and moisturized underneath the braids, wigs, and weaves. Stay clear of glue!!
Natural or relaxed, it’s all about how you take care of your hair. Natural is not for everyone ( I tried it for 3 years). My hair is heathier relaxed than natural. Those that wear weave will often neglect their real hair.
Gurl. I feel u. I’m natural n tryna deal with it. Putting in all the dam juices n berries, lol ma hair was better permed because I didn’t perm it often. Now I’m like it’s just not all that. I’m going to start braidin it to see if that strengthens it but I dam near over it unless it starts growin better, smh.
I was the same way and after speaking with my stylist she told me that natural isn’t for everyone. All my hair fell out/broke off when I was natural. Once i went back to relaxing, it thickened and grew.
How did u transform from natural to permed I’ve been natural for 4 years all my hair is natural all perm cut out but in afraid it will fall out if I just thro a perm in
Your hair is not healthier relaxed than natural…makes zero sense. Thats like bleaching your skin and saying the chemicals are better for my skin!…you just know how to manage your hair better in a relaxed state…the hair itself isnt healthier in fact it is weaker.
It took me a long time to learn how to manage my natural hair. But im starting to get the hang of it.
I’m so glad I saw this and reading your comment because my relaxer is right here waiting for me. I tried the natural and it isn’t for me. My hair did a whole lot better with the relaxer.
I’m liein I just pressed it, lol. Ima keep natural for now. Ladies do what u feel is right for your hair. Ppl be so busy being judgemental they forget to support they sistahs ☝
No it isn’t for everyone. The key to healthy hair is maintenance on a regular. Relaxed or natural it doesn’t matter, just take care of it, if you don’t know do research and learn about your hair, because “everyone’s ” hair is different. I’ve learned that I’m still learning but when I didn’t understand what should be done and what shouldn’t my hair was damaged and I would get it cut off to start over. My hair is very thick and the struggle is real. ✌❤
I don’t get how the hair texture you were born with is not for you, but that’s just me. I believe that a lot of women were never taught how to maintain natural hair. They were just taught that straight hair is more manageable. However in this case she already has alopecia so I wouldn’t put a chemical on top of already damaged hair. It’s one thing if your hair was healthy.
My concern with relaxer is the harm it does to your health. Women growing fibroids the size of peaches and grapefruits for straight hair. Nothing natural about that, although I understand that natural hair can be hard to maintain if you don’t know how or aren’t use to having to do it. It can be done it’s all about finding what works for you! That is a journey in itself!
Being natural is hard, a relaxer is easier. I have been natural going on 5 years and this is the longest n healthiest my hair has every been. Being natural you have to learn your hair, that would be the only reason why it is not for everyone because you have to invest time and knowledge.
My own hair has never been neglected while wearing weave and I’ve been doing it for years. In fact, I prefer it over my own hair because of the versatility I desire
So the hair that you were born with isn’t for you? Hmmm ok well me personally I love versatility so I will wear protective styles in my hair. I’m natural no chemicals and the reason being is this pic were commenting on I stopped putting harsh chemicals in my hair because it thinned my hair out now it’s very healthy! 🙂 natural is the way to go for me.
When these women look in the mirror with their natural hair they think.. I’m ugly.. But when they smack somebody elses on top like a hat.. They magically turn into miss fine as wine..lol.. Glad I look in the mirror and love what I see.
Sometimes women who are natural are worse than vegans….. Pushing their agenda on people. If you want to be natural by all means do you. If you want to relax it by all means do that. Quit being so judgmental all of the time. Inform us and then keep it moving ????…. I was natural for 2 years. I had my moments but I ultimately didn’t achieve the look I wanted. My hair is well maintenanced right now- even with a relaxer.
Jade Cunningham like they can’t support another female if she’s not natural. It really irks me how some of them always gotta put down relaxed hair. Like what’s best for you and keep it moving, mind ya business, I just can’t with some naturals.
I’ve been natural for years after deciding not to relax but I keep my hair either braided, faux locked or weaved up. My hair doesn’t do what I want without chemicals so I choose not to walk around with my natural hair out. I love the versatility of different colors and textures, and lengths without doing it to my own hair. I like to switch it up instantly and when I was relaxing with regular visits to the salon, my hair grew more than in it’s natural state. May not make sense to some but everyone isn’t the same. I like to spice up my look but that doesn’t mean that I hate myself or my hair. I am not my hair and it doesn’t define me. My weaves are accessories and I’m not ashamed to wear them or relax if I want. Some naturals think they’re above anyone who isn’t and I don’t understand why. Just because you don’t relax or wear weave doesn’t mean you’re better than me. It just means that we have different preferences. Doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily healthy because I’ve seen some natural hair that is a hot mess. People use the argument that black hair is versatile. It is but constant color changes, straightening, crimping, and curling wouldn’t be good for my natural hair. One day, I may want it long. 2 days later, I may want it short. Point is, do you. Do what’s right and comfortable for you. It’s your hair, no one else’s. No one should be made to feel ashamed because they aren’t doing the same as others.
What people fail to realize is we all have different hair textures….some are easier to manage more than others…me personally I have gone natural a few times and it’s just not for me. I have a beautiful grade of hair but I wasn’t able to do with it as I saw others I liked do with theirs. I love my perm and short hair because that is what works for me. I support all my sisters no matter what they decide to do with their hair:)
I wasn’t trying to push anything on anyone in case that comment for me. I completely understand that everyone doesn’t want to be natural. My hair is my choice, your hair is yours. I was just saying I love the fact that going natural helped my hair flourish. Relaxed hair can flourish as well as long as its care for. If you don’t take care of your natural hair it’ll die quicker than permed hair.
How can “natural” not be for everybody. It’s what God gave us. Just like you learn to care for your skin you learn to care for your hair. That’s like saying, “black skin isn’t for every black person”.
Im not knocking relaxers…i havent seen anyone on this post who has…but to say your hair is healthier. With a chemical isnt true. Relaxers weaken the hair to make it straight. …if you like it that way great.
Also the remark about “natural aint for everybody”
Uhhh you are born natural! It is for you! Lol. I have brown eyes im not going to say brown eyes aint for everybody because i choose contacts…to me it sounds like we are trying to reach impossible beauty standards when she say that.
Natural hair shouldnt be measured by length either…thats for white folks…our hair gets big…not long
We need to change mindsets.
Nothing wrong with relaxers…but just be real…you dont like your hair because you still are under pressure from society.
I can see how your hair could be healthier with a relaxed. Yes your hair is chemically processed and completely fried and broken down but if you didn’t take care of your natural hair it could be dry brittle and very damaged. Natural hair can break and fall out in patches just like chemically processed hair can.
Most black women have never seen their natural let alone had to maintain it. There are a lot more salons now that specialize in black women’s God given hair so maintaining healthy hair is easier than it was even five or ten years ago.
Just do you and take care of your own hair. For those who are saying your hair is bra strap and beyond…i want to see pics…always bragging about hair length…but not one pic.
Annedra Hull ok that’s different. Everybody has a preference and I’m not one to tell anyone that one is better than the other. I’ve seen beautiful hair both relaxed and natural. However our textured hair is how we were created so it is for all of us. It kinda hits a nerve when I hear black women say “it’s not for everyone”.
Omg! Amazing….every women deserves to look and feel beautiful. Love yourself and embrace what you have and stop chasing what appears to be good. Everything is not meant for us. I swear beauty is skin deep. Weaves and braids will be the damage to all of our hair…
And some of y’all can get outta here with all that negative shit. Hair is literally a small strand of what makes a person. But most of y’all focus so much on hair and judge the blackness of a person by what’s on their head. How shallow is that? If my blackness depends on wtf I do to my hair then take my black card I don’t want shit.
So why would you go and then put a damn perm in her hair…a n d wat if the wind blows???I would think having a professional make a custom wig would’ve been better….in the video she said herself that she was doing her own hair.
Sad to see females so lost and slow ,wow who wears fake stank bundles to this point after 3 days it starts to stink but they leave it up much longer than that!!! Lmao
I done natural for 4 years then decided to perm o treated the hair steam condition trim the works, when i went salon i still ended up cutting a lot off as it was damaged so it doesnt matter if u go natural or perm , i been rockin perm for 4 years now hair was shoulder length jus cut it but it grew quicker with a perm than natural
I’m glad that she didn’t shave it. She is now able to wear her hair while (hopefully) nursing it back to optimal health. For a lot of people a shaved head would bring shame. God bless her for being strong enough to share her past choices and results with us, most women would continue to cover up until all is lost.
Tammie Hudson-Holmes I do agree with that. Everyone is different. I have shaved my head a few times just because of how easy it is and I loved and rocked it each time lol.
Erica Harrelson Exactly, I’m natural underneath but I’ve never had a weave but I do love my wigs for when I want to switch my look up. No matter what protective style you choose please take care of your real hair. If my edges were getting bad it means I need a break.
The same thing happened to my cousin except it wasn’t her edges. It was the crown of her head. The only thing that worked for her was Rogaine and you have to use that for the rest of your life or else the hair will just fall out again.
Honestly i think that shaving off the hair in its entirity would be good, then everything would be on one level and grow back evenly. Everyone is different though.
Nadia why am I so tickled pink behind your comments????lol lmbo ok ok ok stoooop it. Imma try to stroll and keep reading the rest, but wait I can’t still chuckling at your comment tho????????????????????????????☺️
How can you just assume that it was brought on by not taking care of her hair? Suggesting that she cut it all off doesn’t fix the issue if it was caused by alopecia. Some people don’t have edges because of childhood wing worms or because of similar weak edges in their family history. And to the woman who finds this funny… I’m not even going to address how immature you are because she I don’t think she was even trying to be funny with any of those comments. So yes… Keep “strolling”
Tanika Pickney I wasn’t and I shouldn’t have assumed, I was just saying. I really just feel bad for her. I wouldn’t laugh about that because that has to affect someone’s self esteem.
Seriously though, this young sista needs to visit the dermatologist QUICKLY and have her hair follicles assessed. She may have to use alopecia medication to restart the growth. Style looks good, but a relaxer may not be the answer. God bless & good luck baby girl…u r beautiful!
The way her hair is missing in the front would make me think that I had a client once who had that issue, I had to use a net to cover the front. She cried the first time I did her hair after looking in the mirror. You never know what a person is going through.
She said that she wore a lot of sew-in weaves in the video. The video was on Instagram. Most likely that is the cause. I’m saying this only because she admitted it. I understand that there are some people who have medical conditions that cause hair loss.
But my question is, is the creamy crack really helping to solve the problem? She did relax this hair correct? There is no renewal in that. It’s just relaxed and covered. What can she do to restore health?
For me I like natural hair perm been there do that but twist outs have broken my edges a little need to figure something else out. And I believe the perm gave me fibroid tumors.
I love it! Great job! She’ll probably continue to wear this style until her hair follicles repair themselves. I’m sure she’s thankful that she can achieve this look even with severe damage to her scalp.
This is probably due to relaxers. My hair is the same texture and sides are gone. My hair loss is a result of heredity and relaxing my hair for years. Relaxer ate my sides away. Never wore weave.
I would absolutely LOVE to assist ANYONE who believes there is more to be learned and that there are needs which are based on a person being an “individual” – not only a specific treatment or hair styling regimen. There are SOO many questions that need to be asked of this young lady before anyone can ‘fix’ her problem. So many automatically think that they already know the answer to all problems like this. It’s MUCH deeper then what the eyes can see.
While this style is nice… I just want to say how the hell could someone SEE their hair disappearing and stll subject themselves to more damage. Unbelievable.
This style is cute, but I think she should just shave it all off and start over. She has a pretty face so she can pull the bald look of until it grows back, and if she wants to change it up just pop a wig on.
i don’t care what he did. we need this kind of talent where i live because we have to go to another state just for something the whole projects ain’t rocking
My edges were never thick and I get braids but this is ridiculous when she noticed that they were coming Out she should have stopped whatever she was doing
Just needs to be cut all off and given a fresh start. For the first year she should just shampoo, air dry, and use some kind of curl defining treatment. No relaxer, no heat. And if she wants a new style put a cap on and get a wig but nothing where it should be glued or sewn to her head. I hope she takes better care of her hair this is heartbreaking
Most damage occur because of lack of treatments,Chrmicals must be treated, Also so much stress on dry hair cause breakage,,Chemical penetrate into the hair shaft, And protein must be replaced. We have thr expertise to. Keep your hair healthy. Stop using things and guessing , We shoot from the hip professionally, If. Yoi Cant afford hair care ,Go. natural!!!
There are techniques professional use ,Stress test to see what condition a person hair is in before doing it, If you are a kitchen Beautician and you consult a stylist after your guessing.you could have a disaster., Black hair is nothing to to play with.
The issue I have with some hairstylists is it seems like “hair care” has been trumped by making money. Because at what point do you say to the client that you are no longer braiding or weaving their hair? How about you do some damage control to preserve the client’s hairline before it gets to this stage?? And why would anyone want to be continuously weaving or doing whatever to their hair when you start seeing it thinning? I mean, is it just me?
Poor boo boo!! She just need to see a dermatologist and try using some vitamin E or castor oil and deep conditioning her hair. The stylist did a good job covering up her damaged scalp.
Her hair looks nice. Reading some of these comments 9/10 of you would laugh at her if her hair didn’t look nice or if she shaved her hair off to start all over. Can’t support one another to save your lives.
If some of you making these negative hateful comments never experienced the Heartbreak and the shame of losing your beautiful hair you wouldn’t be so quick to put this young lady down !!how do you know what causes her hair loss? how do you know this is not a silk blowout?
I was chemically burned by a perm put in my hair as a young teenager by my mom’s request because my hair was so thick.I have had to live with that for years. I had beautiful long thick hair (still nice except the hairlane)so be careful before you put someone down . Do you know the story behind why they do what they do ? Unkind words hurt someone who is obviously already hurting.
Wow!!! Gorgeous!!!
Oh my Gawd!!
Lovey !
Glenisha isnt that the same pic?! lol
Yeah looks like it
Love it
Happy for her!
Wow She’s Talented
This is all she needs…nothing more!
First of all, she is young!!! There’s not One Hen on this post, that has not had to Start Over Again!!! We live and we learn!! Right On Baby Girl!!! Nice and Sweet, and Easy…✊
Exactly! Her hair needs as little maintenance as possible & this style will give her tha break she needs for her hair to thrive!

OMG, Stay away from the edges!
Phallon Why girl this what we talk in bout yesterday she did tht tho
Lol omg I was wondering what she was going to do lol
Very nice! She looks great!!!

Great job
If dine and maintained properly all relaxers don’t damage your hair
I was thinking the same think. I don’t think you should relax someones hair who already has alopecia. Honestly they would have been better off just putting a wig on it. My cousin has alopecia and she stopped relaxing her hair and uses Rogaine now and her hair grew back.

Yessss
My mom has alopecia. She stopped perming her hair and I would sew it I. And her hair cane back just fine. Her edges are better than ever. Its all in the application and maintenance.
Breanna Ervin she got it done
Terra Ta-Shylah going to be me soon
Uh oh….????
nice it will grow back and i love it
And the sister had on false glued on eye lashes! Lord knows we messed when y comes to beauty standards!
Ibo Tirado her edges
Renewed? They are just covered up
Aka a comb over ????
It looks so much better tho. That’s why I don’t let too many people in my hair.
I was like they just covered it with her hair..thought I was only one who noticed!
I think that was the only option for now, unless she just goes completely bald.
Can u say…Combover..
True…but she looks 1000% better! Probably helped her self esteem
Right, lol
I said the same thing!
Until she read some of the comments. People are cruel.
Girl I was just saying the same damn thing!
She’s Beautiful!!!! ????
Nice beautiful qween***
Yeah it may be a cover up but no shade on her. She looks great.

Question: what can someone do to protect the hair from falling out even more??
Natural is best
Poor baby. But she’s slaying now!
Did they use chemicals or high heat

Okaaay?! Don’t forget dat Sulfur 8…yo head will smell bad but look good! LOL!
You are a beautician that cares. Super gifted. Thank God for your gift. :).
Beautiful awesome job….So glad to see stylist who care about healthy hair and not just the money
That looks fab
Corona Coleman i want this cut

I was the same way and after speaking with my stylist she told me that natural isn’t for everyone. All my hair fell out/broke off when I was natural. Once i went back to relaxing, it thickened and grew.
Oh wow, I’ma run out n get a perm ????
How did u transform from natural to permed I’ve been natural for 4 years all my hair is natural all perm cut out but in afraid it will fall out if I just thro a perm in
Tequila Marie it won’t…I just relaxed my hair after 3 years…and it looks so pretty!! You just have to take care of it.
Yolanda Ammons yes I think it’s time thank you
Tequila Marie just like the other lady stated…it won’t fall out. Just make sure you take care of it.
I’m thinking of returning to relaxers too because my hair was much thicker then than it is as a natural.
Your hair is not healthier relaxed than natural…makes zero sense. Thats like bleaching your skin and saying the chemicals are better for my skin!…you just know how to manage your hair better in a relaxed state…the hair itself isnt healthier in fact it is weaker.
It took me a long time to learn how to manage my natural hair. But im starting to get the hang of it.
I’m so glad I saw this and reading your comment because my relaxer is right here waiting for me. I tried the natural and it isn’t for me. My hair did a whole lot better with the relaxer.
I was natural for 3 years…. Did all the protective styling, went to great stylists that specialized in natural hair regularly. Just kept falling out.
I’m liein I just pressed it, lol. Ima keep natural for now. Ladies do what u feel is right for your hair. Ppl be so busy being judgemental they forget to support they sistahs ☝
Agreed, I text-lax every 4-5 months and my hair is bra strap lenght
No it isn’t for everyone. The key to healthy hair is maintenance on a regular.

KrystleZander which relaxer does your stylist use?
Yes, 1 of my daughters hair is healthier with a relaxer.. Mines and 2 of my other girls is healthier in its natural way.
I tried going natural and it didn’t work out for me… my hair is better off permed. I feel wah u saying.
This is true, I couldn’t manage mine when I was natural

My natural hair is the bomb!! Bra strap length and it has thickness. Something my permed hair didn’t have.

How can “natural” not be for everybody. It’s what God gave us. Just like you learn to care for your skin you learn to care for your hair. That’s like saying, “black skin isn’t for every black person”.
Im not knocking relaxers…i havent seen anyone on this post who has…but to say your hair is healthier. With a chemical isnt true. Relaxers weaken the hair to make it straight. …if you like it that way great.
Also the remark about “natural aint for everybody”
Uhhh you are born natural! It is for you! Lol. I have brown eyes im not going to say brown eyes aint for everybody because i choose contacts…to me it sounds like we are trying to reach impossible beauty standards when she say that.
Natural hair shouldnt be measured by length either…thats for white folks…our hair gets big…not long
We need to change mindsets.
Nothing wrong with relaxers…but just be real…you dont like your hair because you still are under pressure from society.
We all struggle with that
I can see how your hair could be healthier with a relaxed. Yes your hair is chemically processed and completely fried and broken down but if you didn’t take care of your natural hair it could be dry brittle and very damaged. Natural hair can break and fall out in patches just like chemically processed hair can.
Most black women have never seen their natural let alone had to maintain it. There are a lot more salons now that specialize in black women’s God given hair so maintaining healthy hair is easier than it was even five or ten years ago.
LeKendria Tucker I was just saying how i feel about natural and permed hair. No ma’am i’m not about any confusion!
Tina Waters may i should have worded that a little different…perm is just what i prefer!
Just do you and take care of your own hair. For those who are saying your hair is bra strap and beyond…i want to see pics…always bragging about hair length…but not one pic.
Northern Lights I feel you with that length check mess. Long hair isn’t everybody’s goal. I’ve seen gorgeous hair in a TWA and in a permed pixie cut.
Annedra Hull ok that’s different. Everybody has a preference and I’m not one to tell anyone that one is better than the other. I’ve seen beautiful hair both relaxed and natural. However our textured hair is how we were created so it is for all of us. It kinda hits a nerve when I hear black women say “it’s not for everyone”.
Tina Waters I hear you…and yes if I didn’t have a choice natural it would be????
O that so cute on her
I see edges…she’s missing Hair! Nice cover up style. I wouldn’t call that renewed.
Thank you!! Just permed n layed down!!! Creating more damage from the chemicals… Smh very cute but still
I am so glad I wasn’t drinking anything when I read your comment…????????
Edwin Baldwin here go the end results
Love her short hair style!!
Omg! Amazing….every women deserves to look and feel beautiful. Love yourself and embrace what you have and stop chasing what appears to be good. Everything is not meant for us. I swear beauty is skin deep. Weaves and braids will be the damage to all of our hair…
I think it looks alot BETTER than wearing those God awful lacefront wigs that’s probably the reason her edges fell out in the 1st place.
Lace front wigs without the glue won’t damage your edges like that.
Good for her!!!! Beautiful.
And some of y’all can get outta here with all that negative shit. Hair is literally a small strand of what makes a person. But most of y’all focus so much on hair and judge the blackness of a person by what’s on their head. How shallow is that? If my blackness depends on wtf I do to my hair then take my black card I don’t want shit.
This is amazing im so happy for her she looks amazing
Love it!
Struct your stuff girl…beautiful and happy for you
Wow, good job
Oh god
So why would you go and then put a damn perm in her hair…a n d wat if the wind blows???I would think having a professional make a custom wig would’ve been better….in the video she said herself that she was doing her own hair.
The wind, that’s the first thing I thought about
What if the wind blows??? Lmao!!!!
You edges fine
huh bra ? thats a good cover up !
lol right
She better be careful with the eyelashes too
Beautiful transformation!
Like magic.
Looks good! Keep it that way! Beautiful lady . ..don’t even need all that extra stuff!
Smh…. these comments.
I agree
They are covered up not healed with relaxer and a comb over which is even worse.
Devetta Tate ain’t this the one you was talking about yesterday? Lol
Omg yes Tiffany Hurst!!!????????????????
The after pics are amazing!!
Sad to see females so lost and slow ,wow who wears fake stank bundles to this point after 3 days it starts to stink but they leave it up much longer than that!!! Lmao
Wow it looks really good!!!
Weh di rass
I done natural for 4 years then decided to perm o treated the hair steam condition trim the works, when i went salon i still ended up cutting a lot off as it was damaged so it doesnt matter if u go natural or perm , i been rockin perm for 4 years now hair was shoulder length jus cut it but it grew quicker with a perm than natural
Excelente, esta muy lindo me encanta me lo haria asi.
Breannahh Starr’burstt Robinson that’s the rest of the picture
Omg that’s crazy
I love this transformation
8 hours later…Fix up! Moesha Bryan Farika Déesse
????????????????
OMG !!!!
Don’t let that style get out of hand….oil scalp diet…n take vitamins daaaamn
Wow, I’m not being mean but how do you let your head get that bad. At that point she should just shave it and start over.
I’m glad that she didn’t shave it. She is now able to wear her hair while (hopefully) nursing it back to optimal health. For a lot of people a shaved head would bring shame. God bless her for being strong enough to share her past choices and results with us, most women would continue to cover up until all is lost.
Yes I agree don’t shave it at least she can wear her real hair….
I say that all the time how do u let your edges get that bad?? When u first see signs of thinning stop wearing weaves/wigs
Tammie Hudson-Holmes I do agree with that. Everyone is different. I have shaved my head a few times just because of how easy it is and I loved and rocked it each time lol.
Erica Harrelson Exactly, I’m natural underneath but I’ve never had a weave but I do love my wigs for when I want to switch my look up. No matter what protective style you choose please take care of your real hair. If my edges were getting bad it means I need a break.
The same thing happened to my cousin except it wasn’t her edges. It was the crown of her head. The only thing that worked for her was Rogaine and you have to use that for the rest of your life or else the hair will just fall out again.
Honestly i think that shaving off the hair in its entirity would be good, then everything would be on one level and grow back evenly. Everyone is different though.
Aminata Yaro I agree, shave and leave it alone until it starts to grow and then learn how to manage it. That’s just my opinion though.
Michelle Campbell aw, that’s sad.:( I’m happy she found something to help though.
Nadia why am I so tickled pink behind your comments????lol lmbo ok ok ok stoooop it. Imma try to stroll and keep reading the rest, but wait I can’t still chuckling at your comment tho????????????????????????????☺️
How can you just assume that it was brought on by not taking care of her hair? Suggesting that she cut it all off doesn’t fix the issue if it was caused by alopecia. Some people don’t have edges because of childhood wing worms or because of similar weak edges in their family history. And to the woman who finds this funny… I’m not even going to address how immature you are because she I don’t think she was even trying to be funny with any of those comments. So yes… Keep “strolling”
Tanika Pickney I wasn’t and I shouldn’t have assumed, I was just saying. I really just feel bad for her. I wouldn’t laugh about that because that has to affect someone’s self esteem.
I hope this young lady will “leave the weave” and let her natural beauty shine through!
Damn Timithea Mitchell
Great job! I was doubting you with this one….but you are amazing! She looks beautiful!!
But you’ll only see this in black women
Thats a lie. I know more white women with thinning hair than anyone.
Us as black women really need to start taking care of our hair
Nice
Danielle Thomas have u seen this?!
Better!!!!
Wamala Simemba lmao
Mxxxxm get out
This shud excite u lol
????????????my hairline is not that bad
She should stay away perm
Maybe she is alergic for weave. Or hair from other people. Some people dont stand still with those things
Nooo
To much of anything is bad for you…
This young lady is in good hands, stay with the stylist you went to
That’s good great!
Not acceptable. Hairstyle still ugly and basic.
I like it! Go fourth in confidence baby. Stylists are miracle workers
I love it now her scalp can breath and her hair can begin to grow again☺
Danielle Strudley maybe you could consider this?
Love the cut….
Seriously though, this young sista needs to visit the dermatologist QUICKLY and have her hair follicles assessed. She may have to use alopecia medication to restart the growth. Style looks good, but a relaxer may not be the answer. God bless & good luck baby girl…u r beautiful!
This the result Kai Davie
Awww…. ????????????????????????
Jasmine Samonee damnnn
Once again this could be a medical condition ….ect what’s are the facts and details before you judge or assume.
I think it is too! Bc if anyone has ever lost hair writhed a patch or like this you can still she the “holes” from where your hair grows.
The way her hair is missing in the front would make me think that I had a client once who had that issue, I had to use a net to cover the front. She cried the first time I did her hair after looking in the mirror. You never know what a person is going through.
She said that she wore a lot of sew-in weaves in the video. The video was on Instagram. Most likely that is the cause. I’m saying this only because she admitted it. I understand that there are some people who have medical conditions that cause hair loss.
Glad somebody watched something. If you can please share???? besides that it still doesn’t make the comments ok.
Really cute!
it says edges renewed….they mean comb over…right. the hair is combed forward. but Miracle work still.
????????????????whatever the hell works
Kia…high 5 ✋???? ????????
Skillz
Her edges are still gone they just covered up
To the middle of the head Josette La’Cole
But my question is, is the creamy crack really helping to solve the problem? She did relax this hair correct? There is no renewal in that. It’s just relaxed and covered. What can she do to restore health?
Exactly! Razor chick of Atlanta doesn’t care to restore hair, people are paying for a cover up and a cut basically.
What an amazing job
For me I like natural hair perm been there do that but twist outs have broken my edges a little need to figure something else out. And I believe the perm gave me fibroid tumors.
I have fibroids also and too manipulation will break ur hair when natural. I would try n make a twist out last 2weeks
That is tracy own
Colored and relaxed, still damaging.
Wow she looks great
Poor baby. She looks better, but wow.
I love it! Great job! She’ll probably continue to wear this style until her hair follicles repair themselves. I’m sure she’s thankful that she can achieve this look even with severe damage to her scalp.
Wtf smdh
People so damn negative all the times… at least she not wearing wigs now. So she can treat her hair.
Im sorry…but how u let ur s**t get like that????!!!
Indy Taylor same girl from video
Yeah
This is probably due to relaxers. My hair is the same texture and sides are gone. My hair loss is a result of heredity and relaxing my hair for years. Relaxer ate my sides away. Never wore weave.
Mookie G. Harris finally the after pic
Jamé Cummings Michelle Campbell Ashanti Banks she got it fixed!
They just combed it over that’s all.
Awesome!!!
Nakia the outcome of that video
Comb over perhaps
Still ain’t no edges bii….. they ran off on the scalp twice
GIRL! I know she had to get a relaxer but she messed her self up when she kept putting weaves in her hair knowing it was damaged
True. You do great styles!
AWWWW…THANK YOU
Where? That’s just a mean comb over
CherRay Elle here’s what they did
She did a good job! Lol
She did. It’s cute.
It is.
She hasn’t learn her lesson but kudos your hair looks nice.
This style looks cute on her and it’s a great way to cover up her hair loss until her edges grow back.
I saw this vid on IG and I commented that I couldn’t wait to see the reveal…it didn’t disappoint! She looks great!!
Was chemical damage? Poor thing…
I hate it… what happens when she sweat or the wind blows
Should of gotten a wig!
When I click on the commets of these types of post I never see someone I know. Lol
I love it…..whatever it takes to restore her peace…..
Awesome! ????
Crystal Porter please save these people!
I would absolutely LOVE to assist ANYONE who believes there is more to be learned and that there are needs which are based on a person being an “individual” – not only a specific treatment or hair styling regimen. There are SOO many questions that need to be asked of this young lady before anyone can ‘fix’ her problem. So many automatically think that they already know the answer to all problems like this. It’s MUCH deeper then what the eyes can see.
But she got a relaxer tho I’m sure so that’s no better but its.still amazing
Lol idk ????????????
It’s a comb over
Right. Bull!
Very pretty.
Hot ass mess
Look at GOD
Very nice
Why Kesha KeshaKesha they did magic on that head
Yes they did ????????
It looks much better tho
Yes!!!!!
Mimi Brown they made something happen! And the cut is cute on her! Now it’s just to maintain and get better at hair care!
Lorie Miller-Jones here is the after
Corey Bruce Chick look
Well damn
Its jus pushed up
Lol
She got help Valerie Jackson…
Don’t say renewed.. That’s like false advertising… Edges covered up, and she looks great
This is beautiful.
Awesome!
No
Pure talent
Wow and it looks so cute!
Saddddd
Oh dang they hooked her up ????????
Bruh like boom
While this style is nice… I just want to say how the hell could someone SEE their hair disappearing and stll subject themselves to more damage. Unbelievable.
I would’ve just worn a wig.
Yes I seen it… but how long she gone keep that up???
Thats looking like the only option there was
She just need a dam wig
Lol n real life tho!! And a hot oil treatment!
Man.. ALLLLLAT!!
This style is cute, but I think she should just shave it all off and start over. She has a pretty face so she can pull the bald look of until it grows back, and if she wants to change it up just pop a wig on.
Allison Wonderlynn I think this old girl Marian Byrd look sis
Who
Aw ol ???? from the other pic yeah this her
Yeah, that’s her…Much better, but I hope her hair grows back.
Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Syper
It looks good
It’s a start!!! lol
In the original video posted by the salon I went to while in Jacksonville, FL (Salon PK) I thought it said she had alopecia?
Rhyan Davis the same girl.
Yea he combed her s**t over lol. I’d be mad as hell if I woke up to that bald s**t in the AM. And she did that to herself… Smh
She does amazing dang near ministry type transformations for her clients. Sadly this girl will have continue frying her hair to maintain this
Im so glad everyone knows thats just a comb over
What’s gonna happen when it’s windy outside Darcelle Paul
Sonnia D. Parkinson, Donicca McCalmon this is crazy
She laid that
It look nice now
butt ugly
These the type of girls to talk smack about any and everything and everybody. …hunty hunty hunty!!
You did that
The video we seen on Instagram lol Maryjane Pancha
Nothing but a miracle ????
i don’t care what he did. we need this kind of talent where i live because we have to go to another state just for something the whole projects ain’t rocking
I need Some
Nice work but yes cover over not renewed
Aka a perm and some heat
She need protein fushion
My edges were never thick and I get braids but this is ridiculous when she noticed that they were coming Out she should have stopped whatever she was doing
God bless you
Just needs to be cut all off and given a fresh start. For the first year she should just shampoo, air dry, and use some kind of curl defining treatment. No relaxer, no heat. And if she wants a new style put a cap on and get a wig but nothing where it should be glued or sewn to her head. I hope she takes better care of her hair this is heartbreaking
Most damage occur because of lack of treatments,Chrmicals must be treated, Also so much stress on dry hair cause breakage,,Chemical penetrate into the hair shaft, And protein must be replaced. We have thr expertise to. Keep your hair healthy. Stop using things and guessing , We shoot from the hip professionally, If. Yoi Cant afford hair care ,Go. natural!!!
Umm no. Renewed is when it grows back. That is a cover up and it looks like it.
There are techniques professional use ,Stress test to see what condition a person hair is in before doing it, If you are a kitchen Beautician and you consult a stylist after your guessing.you could have a disaster., Black hair is nothing to to play with.
The weakest part of our hair is the edges,!!!
I thought cancer patient
So then they go and slap a relaxer on her ultra thin, fragile hair and sensitive scalp… #OyVey…
Renewed????? Smh they just combed her hair to the front wtf lmao Sunobia Love Hurd
Lmfao i thought the same s**t. But s**t it look beeter then what she had going. Lol
Right lol
Covered it up well though
Damn that’s good. She can start over
The issue I have with some hairstylists is it seems like “hair care” has been trumped by making money. Because at what point do you say to the client that you are no longer braiding or weaving their hair? How about you do some damage control to preserve the client’s hairline before it gets to this stage?? And why would anyone want to be continuously weaving or doing whatever to their hair when you start seeing it thinning? I mean, is it just me?
Edges not renewed…. hair brushed forward…. Still pretty though
BEAUTIFUL! I CAN TELL THAT WEAVE GLUE IS NO JOKE!
…and when the wind blows
This edges are not renewed her hair is permed and or set! Smh
Lol they so low down Kendra Shavay
Lol they said they just combed her hair forward ????????????????
Kendra well in her defense they had to clip them ends #blacksalons
I just pray that her edges make a comeback and she dominates everybody in the hair game ????????
Bless her heart. She looks great.
Poor boo boo!! She just need to see a dermatologist and try using some vitamin E or castor oil and deep conditioning her hair. The stylist did a good job covering up her damaged scalp.
I hope her hair grows back healthy.
Her hair looks nice. Reading some of these comments 9/10 of you would laugh at her if her hair didn’t look nice or if she shaved her hair off to start all over. Can’t support one another to save your lives.
If some of you making these negative hateful comments never experienced the Heartbreak and the shame of losing your beautiful hair you wouldn’t be so quick to put this young lady down !!how do you know what causes her hair loss? how do you know this is not a silk blowout?
I was chemically burned by a perm put in my hair as a young teenager by my mom’s request because my hair was so thick.I have had to live with that for years. I had beautiful long thick hair (still nice except the hairlane)so be careful before you put someone down . Do you know the story behind why they do what they do ? Unkind words hurt someone who is obviously already hurting.
She better turn the other way when the wind blow
I have seen her pic on a lot of different ppl page and they making fun of her and that is not cool. I love it hunn you look really good
