If I've told ya once, I've told you a MILLION TIMES...
Your health is a major factor for hair health and growth.
We're gonna talk about a powerful green juice that you can add to your hair growth regimen to get you long-lasting hair growth results. POW!
Look... If you've been suffering with hair loss or thinning, or maybe you have a scalp issue, it's inflamed and it's itchy...
You're definitely going to want to read this bad girl I wrote for you right hurrr honey. Yes, I said "right hurrr", now let's talk about your hurrr and how adding chlorophyll into your growth regimen can work wonders all around.
2 Major Moves For Hair Growth & Scalp Health
So I just mentioned liquid chlorophyll for your hair and it's very likely you haven't heard a ton about this, but I will get into it in a minute because...
Liquid chlorophyll just might help you on your hair growth journey. It's no secret that ANY SERIOUS HAIR GROWTH REGIMEN should include two major things...
Good Health Radiates From Every Pore & Follicle
The 1st thing is using all-natural, stimulating products on a consistent basis, if not daily. That's very important but the second thing that is equally as important is making sure that your body is healthy in general.
You can do this through diet and detox, now many of you know that I often write about effective topical hair products for growth regimen and these are great, no diggity, no doubt. Still though...
You might grow more hair, but without elite nutrition and detox...
Your growth might not be as lasting as you'd want and it probably won't grow as thick and healthy as fast as when you are combining proper nutrition and body detoxification with great hair oils and DIY growth vitamins.
How Chlorophyll Green Juice Grows Hair Like a Weed!
Now look, how chlorophyll and this POWERFUL green juice comes in the picture is by making sure that your body is healthy.
By adding chlorophyll into your diet you're gonna realize that you are seeing amazing results not only in your hair but in your skin and in your body in general! Honneeeeeey..... #QUEENING
Chlorophyll is what actually creates the green pigment in plant-life, it harnesses the sun's energy to make plants grow, it is the equivalent to what blood is to us humans.
It makes the veggies that makes us healthy, healthy!
It gets your skin on "FULLY POPPIN'mode"as well...
Chlorophyll is packed-full of many hair-health vitamins including vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, and vitamin K.
It is also full of fatty acids and minerals such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, and magnesium which is very important for our overall health and for our bodies.
In fact, chlorophyll has been shown to help fight off cancer, it also helps to stabilize our hormones and it is great for weight loss, digestive issues and a whole list of wonderful things.
Specifically for hair growth though, drinking chlorophyll helps because chlorophyll is great at increasing red blood cells and with the increase in red blood cells in your body, that is gonna speed up healing from sores and wounds which directly effects many scalp issues. This prevents further follicle damage. When the follicles die, NO MORE HAIR. So this is super-important!
Additional Benefit: Slowing Gray Hair & Wrinkles
Not only is chlorophyll able to help to stimulate growth but it's also been linked to slowing down the appearance of gray hairs and has anti-aging properties that are proven to repair rejuvenate skin tissue. It helps to protect against tissue damage and premature aging in the face. It's like a Black-Don't-Crack insurance policy, lol.
How To Use Liquid Chlorophyll Yourself
It's simple really. Get a cup of water, 6-8 ounces is perfect. More is fine too...
You'll want to practice this twice a day. Drink it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and then drink your health solution again at night before going to bed.
Remember, there is a saying that goes, "Health is wealth". And that's so true.
I got a new saying though, "Health is a whole buncha HURRR, OKURRRR!".
Look... Anybody on a natural hair growth journey knows that hair growth pills are not the end of the journey. Well...
The very-popular "Chime" shows us 4 cute and convenient ways to protect the crown and stop our hair from being exposed to outside danger.
And she doesn't hide what she is applying to her hair to make it look so healthy...
She used vegetable glycerin because it is a natural humectant, which means it makes your hair strands absorb moisture from the environment more easily.
And as always she used her special hair growth oil, we have a great recipe you can use here:
The first style she did is one called the "Nubian Bun" and it is SUUUUUPER CUTE! If any of y'all have ever used the Curls passion fruit curl control paste like she did with this style, please DM me on our Instagram and tell me if the smell is as amazing as it should be for ANYTHING with passionfruit in it.
That is one of my FAVORITE fruits smells EVVAAAAAR! Anyway, back to the styles…
Oh, BTW it seems her hair growth routine is definitely working because her hair is thick and luscious.
Protective Styles 2-through-4 Work Off French-Braids
The 2nd style she did was a ROYAL-LOOKING, cute and trendy French-braid style.
The 3rd style is used the French-Braid style and made it more formal and business-ready. It looks soooooo moist and gorgeous OMG!
The 4th style is one that I didn't see coming and have never thought to do… She did some neat little bottom buns in the back after undoing the ends of the French-braids, I think you'll like it. I did, but probably not on myself, I'd definitely put this and a teen-to-early 20s girl though!
Natural Styles To Prevent Breakage of New Hair Growth
Products She Used For Moisture & Styling - Black Hair
Chime had a nice war chest of products to get her hair to look so shiny and healthy, I listed them below...
The 1st comment in Milani's comment section says it all, lol… "It's so nice to find people who have edges like mine!!"
That way we can see the products that will actually work on our lusciousness. And...
What makes it's really cool is that she compared her little-known favorite edge gel againsta super popular type 4 hair edge tamer and showed the INSTANT RESULTS on both sides of her head.
And yes, her fav, which she calls "the best edge control gels she's ever used" on her TRUE 4C hair won, BIG TIME. And look….
...And trust me, she gave us a TRUE test, because sis started off with her edges lookin' ALL crusty and dusty, Ha!
No Glazed Donut Lookin' Hairlines In Them Streetz
First off, she used the Ebin New York 24 Hour Edge Tamer, which Milani says is one of "the best edge control gels she's ever used", and thank goodness it doesn't leave a white residue behind once it's set, because nobody needs to look like they just got randomly kissed all upside the hairline by some funky stranger eating glazed donuts. LOL.
Besides that though…
…she loves how it leaves her edges looking somewhat "relaxed"…
And that's exactly what we want y'all, cuz our edges be waaaaay too busy in these streetz, having way too much going on, as if they got a day job and 3 kids to cook later on! Nawww, how bout you chill and relax, edges?
HOW BOUT THAT?!?! Dang!
Anywhoo, let me stop cussin' out my AND your edges and get back to how us 4Cs can get some dang control over these bad girls, and look...
Y'all better stop sleeping on these small natural hair Youtube channels, they are dropping knowledge. Then again, that's what I'm here for, to pick through the trash and bring you THE GEMS! So no worries.
Here's the video below:
Best Edge Control To Lay COARSE natural 4C Edges & Baby hairs (VIDEO)
Listen, y'all already know how much I appreciate finding great products for coarse and kinky hair. The thing that makes this discovery SO BOMB is that the product that errrrbody knows about (the Got2B Glued Spiking Glue) is actually more expensive than the winner of her head to head showdown!
It's cheaper than weaker (but more popular) edge tamers.
So if you're looking for an edge control gel with REAL holding power and want to spend less than you probably have on your last edge tamer, check out Ebin New York 24 Hour Edge Tamer!
Later Lovelies! And thanks for spilling the tea for us Milan!
Sooooo.... a lazy natural grows her hair 1" in week with BLACK rice water…
This is crazy y'all, this sista named "Jazzy" DM'd me on our BlackHairOMG Instagram account to show me her new video about Gourmet Black Rice Water for Black Hair Before and After. And I aint gonna lie…
… When she said that she grew her hair 1" in a week I was giving her the super side-eye, THEN I saw the video. Look…
She has a very small channel, so not many people have seen it and when I searched online I didn't even find many folks EVEN ATTEMPTING to use Black rice (not brown or white, yes, BLACK) to grow hair.
Black Rice Water for Hair Growth is Unique...
You might already know that we have written about rice rinses and rice-based shampoos, still this is a pretty unique and new technique that got amazing results, if the video is to be trusted. Hey…
She DOES show BEFORE AND AFTER pictures of her growth pushing through the braids after using this black rice water for hair, so I really have nothing to say. I hope it's true shooooooooooooot…
So check out this Black Rice Water for Black Hair Before and After video from Jazzy and judge for yourself. Maybe I'm just a dummy and believe everything, LOL! (But it looks like the real deal…)
Black Rice Water for Hair Before & After Video
So Jazzy figured out how to make hair grow faster by using Black rice water, she fermented rice twice but the first time was too fermented and she got it right on the second try.
You gotta be persisent ladies!
And thankfully, this Black fermented rice water for hair video she showed the water rice ratio and other details.

Curl Defining Products Reviews From Other Naturals
I'm less than 24 hours natural (just got my relaxed ends cut today) and this is the first product I've used. Let me say, prior to putting this in hair my curl definition was non-existent. This stuff tightened my curl pattern, and made my hair incredibly soft, and moisturized. I can't stop touching it.
I'm going to have to pick up some more, because I have never had a natural hair product work AND be soaffordable. I love my natural hair but with this stuff i love it even more...TRY IT!
2. Bio Infusion Curl Creme
This curl pomade is the BOMB. Works great on dry hair. The curl creme is good but it has a LOUD fragrance... It's not as noticeable the next day. If you have thin hair you may want avoid this product. Bio infusion curl creme is paraben and sulfate free (SEE THIS ARTICLE toavoid the most dangerous product ingredients). You don't have to use a lot of the product to get the defined curl look that you want. You get a good bang for your buck with this one.
My hair requires a lot of moisture, and it's texture ranges from silky curls to frizz. I put the Darcy Botanical Sweet Coco Bean Curl Smoothing Cream product on my wet hair and let it dry naturally. My hair feels healthier and the curls are more pronounced. I also used a botanical spray gel for curly hair, to tame the frizzy sections and to have a more manageable style. I'm pleased with this product- and I like the vanilla bean smell, and would definitely purchase again!
I bought this at Target I have used the co-wash and leave in conditioner which both are great. Cantu's products are on the low end for natural hair care and it delivers what it promises. I have used Miss Jessie's in the past which is ridiculously priced and doesn't curl my hair like this. I do not even have to use gel for the style to stay I love it. I have regular black folk hair with a little water, leave in conditioner and this product it curls just fine. I have also used Carols daughter Healthy Hair Butter which also brings out the curl pattern but I have to use a little gel with that to maintain the curls. Use what works on your hair do not go broke trying to find a natural hair care product to give your hair curls that it was not created to have. Enjoy the texture God gave you and be blessed.
Yes, I like this product and it has become by base product from which others are judged. It is trusted and never let's me down. I even achieved my first wash and go with this product on 4b/c hair. It produced loose coily curls. Another good product for Wash and Go is the As I Am Naturally line and it produces a tighter coil and a different Wash and Go look.
My daughter who has more 4c than b does not achieve a wash and go with this product. Perhaps her hair needs more moisturizing since she is swimming everyday this summer, before she can achieve a wash and go with this product.
The product is primarily used to keep my ends and overall hair moisturized. On my hair it produces a soft hold. I am still very heavy handed using products so it is also oily to the touch, but that should change as I master the use of styling products.
Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie is an EXCELLENT creme hair dress and conditioner--think Vitapointe Creme Daily Hairdress, 7 Ounce or Liv Creme Hairdressing and Conditioner kicked up a dozen notches just for curls. No mineral oil, petroleum and beeswax--Shea, coconut , mango, aloe silk protein instead!
For Sale Right Now - Click HERE!
This product is best used just as you would a creme hairdressing. I use this in the same may my mother used Liv on my hair when I was little for braids/braid-outs, finger curls, twist/twist-outs and smoothing ponytails. It works great as a layer on wet hair. Use it after your leave-in conditioner and before your sealing oil. You only need a tiny bit for shine, moisture and de-frizzing . I tap my finger lightly into the product for each braid, twist etc. and take a little more only if I need it.
Do not expect hold from this product! I DO NOT use it to set my "wash and go". Curl Enhancing Smoothie is not intended to perform like an Eco Styler Gel or Kinky Curly Curling Custard. On the other hand, because the product hydrates curls, it is great for finishing your "wash and go" or "rod set" after it dries. It's also great for refreshing second day hair because it helps curls to spring back and smooths frizz.
My best advice for using Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie is use it to do what it's supposed to do.
So many naturals tell us that Kinky-Curly Curling Custard is a tough natural hair product to master. It’s full of nourishing botanicals like agave nectar extract, aloe vera juice and marshmallow, and has a very slippery and goopy texture. A little goes a long way, as it instantly clumps and smoothes your coils. Expect extremely shiny and springy coils. Although it works best on very tight, coarse coils in the “4” category, it might pack too much of a punch for loose curls.
Overall, ladies love this product for natural hair! It works great on hair that is 4a-4c and this natural hair product helps to define your curls and coils beautifully. We've noticed that some of the curly hair product reviewers are saying that this Kinky-Curly Curling Custard does not work for their 4-something type hair. The real problem is that some people don't truly understand their hair type. 4a type hair has S shaped strands with small yet a defined curl pattern and 4b hair generally has Z-shaped strands with no defined curl or coil pattern.
Remember that this product is not a chemical curl enhancer or a hair relaxer, therefore it won't give 4b hair a curl pattern when it doesn't already have one. Our suggestion to all those unsure of your natural hair type is to wash all products/oils/gels out of your hair with a clarifying shampoo then condition, rinse and air dry your hair. If you do not have defined curls or coils and your hair looks like a lovely soft fluffy cloud then you have gorgeous 4b hair. If you have 4b hair don't bother buying this product for Wash-n-Gos. Instead use it for twist-outs or braids-outs for similar results.
Be warned.... Some believe that regular Wash-n-Gos are unhealthy for type 4 hair anyway - the reason being the tangling that comes from 4a/b hair's super shrinkage may lead to breakage. It's recommended that all hair in the type 4 range be kept moist and stretched with ends protected at all times to keep breakage and tangling at a minimum. Many type 4 naturalistas are able to retain 6" of hair growth a year following this rule so give it a try.
Oh and KCCC works really great when you pair it with a superior leave in conditioner like Kinky-Curly Knot Today or Sensories Smooth Passionflower and Aloe leave in. Other curly hair products that are worth mentioning are Deva curl products for curly hair, we will have a few reviews on their best curl defining products very soon so subscribe to BlackHairOMG today for future updates!

You know what??? BUMP IT... Ima go ahead and start with a review of this REAL BUTTER super-softening DIY recipe because there are just waaaaaay too many Lovelies going crazy over this! So here's the type of thing that women are saying...
Marni Faith says....
"Literally JUST tried this mix on my hair, shampooed it out & blow dried and WOW! My hair is SO SOFT!
I'm in England, London & used each of these ingredients. The only thing I 'changed' was that I used 4tsp of blackJamaican castor oil.
The mask was so easy to apply & instantly I could feel my hair softening. Very moisturized & shiny. Will be applying this mask to my hair over this cool winter period! Thanks so much!!!"
The Reason Why This Hair Mask Softens Like Crazy...
It always helps to know the reason WHY you are putting certain ingredients in your hair so that you can start creating your own DIY natural hair recipes later on, if you need to. So look...
This softens like a CHAMP because butter contains many fatty acids that your hair easily absorbs and that work to make your hair healthier, while also smoothing the hair and adding ever-needed moisture.
Milk contains vitamin D, vitamin E & many different proteins that help make your hair shinier, while also repairing damaged hair and making it softer.
Honey is a humectant, which means it attracts moisture and prevents loss of moisture content.
Glycerin is a humectant that attracts moisture. Using this combination of ingredients in your hair mask will make your hair healthier and more beautiful, without the frizz.

You wanna see a Black man who loves your natural hair get so ticked off that he doesn't know what to say?
So ticked he don't even wanna look at you no more? Go ahead and perm your hair on the sneak and you'll get what you asked for, LOL!

He pranked her good before, now she's striking back for all of us to enjoy.
So she got a nice deep conditioning treatment while giggling the whole time at hubby.... Check it out.
Perming Natural Hair Joke - Revenge Prank
Favorite Comments from Fake Perm Video
Jessica Peyton says...
"Girl you should have come out there crying with a scarf around your head and told him your hair was falling out and made a big deal of not wanting him to see it, and THEN take the scarf off and show him your full head of natural hair! Muahahahaha!"
Dr27B says...
"Can I get an Amen for an African American man whose feeling is STILL hurt because you want a perm! Lord bring them back!!"
"You could see the pride in his eyes diminish when he saw his wife putting that chemical cream or so he thought on her hair. After that, she was getting the shun treatment. But he was very relieved at the end but tried not to seem phased by it.
And continued to let her know that knowing who you are and what you stand for is what's important and that she was being wishy-washy because she got him on the prank lol And that jokes about diluting your African heritage was unacceptable. Which is a good thing he is a man who enjoys exactly what he has and that it doesn't need to change."
Products Used In Her FAKE Perm - REAL Deep Conditioner Recipe
Any fool that says "Black women can't grow long hair" needs to watch this video and have a tall glass of shut-your-trap-forever juice.
Cuz look.... After you see the gorgeously HEALTHY and loooooooong hair on this small YouTuber who goes by the name of "Indigenous Standz" you are gonna see what is truly possible with the right care and techniques.
What is TRULY impressive about this routine is just how she stresses keeping max hydration on her hair. Girrrrl, real talk...
You already know all those expensive-behind hair product retailers are happy this sista doesn't get a lot of shine or get a ton of attention (yet) because she's showing everyone who will listen how she's using only 3 very affordable products. Her Natural hair growth regimen products are....
After watching this video, I'll explain to you why you MIGHT NOT want to go through what it takes to get such long her.Check BELOW the video...
Video: Retaining Thigh Length (Past Her Butt) Natural Kinky Hair
Going To Great Lengths for Great Length
Now listen... Nobody claims that this is an easy process. Indigenous Standz says that she takes 3-4 days sometimes just to finish twisting her hair part by part! Yikes!
Also as one commenter brought out, she keeps her hair covered in fashion hair wraps A LOT. Many women are not going to be willing to hide "the luscious" from its adoring public like that.
Girrrrrrl... My luscious demands to be out in the world and livin' it's life like it's Golden, lol!

End of the day, the style she shows comes out looking amazing and she gives a ton of detailed and helpful instructions. I mean she did her DANG THANG!
But laaaawd hammercy, some women really came at this young lady crazy. Yáll already know, some folks ain't happy unless they mad about somethin'.
I just blew your mind with that philosophical DOOZY, didn't I? Ha! Anywhoo girrrl...
I can hardly understand it, still let's enjoy it for what it is. A thorough and cool tutorial. The vid is below and I posted a few of the comments that I liked defending the sista....
In Defense Of Seun's Use of "Fake Hair" - Protective Styling Has a REAL Purpose
One thing I liked about the comments under the vid is that some other women stepped up and defended Seun about using the Italian Perm Yaki Hair so that she could go on living her best life and not be going back and forth with no haters, LOL! Check them out....
Also some ppl like versatile looks that last for days so they don't have to bother with combing their hair, esp those with a busy work life. Lastly, she's doing a TUTORIAL to show others how to create styles, not necessarily meaning she would wear this style or wear weave all the time.
Now stop asking. You sound rude and quite annoying. Btw, I thought the video was useful, as intended. Keep up the great work..."
See The Crotchet Braid Styling Vid Below
Ebony Miracle Says...
I am seriously binge-watching your videos! I understand why you wear weaves(which has absolutely nothing to do with self-hate), the proof of the wonders and benefits of wearing protective styles is clearly in your natural hair which you proudly flaunt on a regular basis! Your tutorials get through to me in such a way that no other YouTuber has.
And for the first time in my history of wearing weaves, I am able to actually entertain the idea of installing my own weaves(may God help me!). I took down my weave not too long ago and noticed a significant amount of growth that I would not have noticed if I was constantly styling and manipulating my natural hair.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You are truly beautiful inside as well as outside. To be as young as you are and to have such a keen knowledge of hair is truly a blessing. I wish you the very best in whichever direction you decide to go in life.
Ahhh, don't you just love to see a happy couple working together?!? Well in this video tutorial showing us how to do a GORGEOUS finger coil natural hairstyle, Youtuber Yapah Rawchaa's husband lends a helping hand and narrates this bomb natural hairstyle while the sista shows the skills off.
SO DOPE!
It's so great to hear her husband encouraging her love and care for her natural hair and even giving a little pep talk to the other natural women out here who will ultimately end up with healthier and stronger hair.
On top of that, the brotha is STRAIGHT UP CRUSHIN' on his wife. It's soooooo cute!
Last, but not least, this particular finger coil natural hairstyle is to die for, so hip and chic and just poppin' all the way around.
Product Warning Before Watching This Finger Coil Tutorial
One word of caution from a helpful commenter about one of the natural hair products that Yapah Rawchaa used, you may or may not care, but the sista who commented talked about Eco Styler gel.
Here's what Tamara Douglas said...
"Watch the youtube video titled: 'Why I stopped using eco styler gel.'
Eco styler gel has cancer causing ingredients! Try flax seed gel! It's cheaper and works way better!"
And Tamara is right, lots of new information has come out about Eco Styler gel, and it will give you something to think about, so take heed sis...
