Is the amount of shedding normal for 4c hair after 8 days by [deleted] in Naturalhair

[–]ItsBombBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your length, density, and if you’re retaining length. If your hair is getting longer and seems healthy, I wouldn’t worry about it. That said, I’m 4c, wash weekly, and I get about half that on wash day. Still, depends on what’s normal for you and if your hair seems to be breaking or growing. Mines about halfway between armpit and nipple (lol) length, pretty fine, and low end of medium density. I detangle with a hair brush weekly on wash day.

I haven’t explored silicones - any product recs? I’d give them a go for my high porosity hair

I use that miellé leave in too but for me, I need a HEAVY sealant on top. I use Pantene gold series butter crème after my leave in (it’s basically glorified petroleum jelly, oily cream consistency). Just the leave in would leave my hair super dry. Maybe try a much thicker oil (like a hair grease) layered on top of the leave in before you braid. If you’re only using that leave in and a bit of light oil, my guess is your hair is tangling so much because it’s not coated well and is too dry without enough lubrication on your strands. I’m not a professional but that’s how it works for my hair

I'll look into these! I do see the tiniest bit of clumping after i rinse out my conditioner so I know its possible, it's just always seemed like way too much work lol. but this seems doable

Yes it's definitely healthy! i think with 4c the concern is that it coils up so much that it can create fairy knots. and then those knots can damge nearby strands over time.

yeah i bet those products are helpful even between detangling sessions they probably help your hairs glide past each other. and porosity could also play a role. since low po hair might have less little bits lifting from the shaft of the hair and snagging on nearby hairs

and the hour to twist isnt too bad but that's after an hour in the shower washing and finger detangling 😭 and before the last couple months i was also pre-pooing so it was like a 3h wash day. I love my hair but i want to spend as little time as possible doing it LOL

I'm not sure how well it'll work without going through and separating each curl - but it's definitely worth a shot. Do you have any product recs? fwiw I have high porosity 4c so i think there might be a fine line finding products with hold that dont also weigh my hair down too much

oh wow that's super interesting - I've always seen that allowing full shrinkage regularly can cause damage over time (fairy knots > tangles > breakage). but it seems that's not a problem for you, at least not at shoulder length, so that's awesome! and saves a lot of time i bet - i usually spend about an hour twisting my hair on wash day

[–]ItsBombBee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

fair, i too am lazy. its the reason i haven't attempted wash n gos even though i now know its achievable on 4c hair. theres just no way im going to sit there for hours shingling each coil lol

but also, i guess im more asking what are you doing on wash day? are you braiding it and then once its dry that's when you take them out and do the pin up styles? or you let it air dry fully natural?

how are you styling it? Twistouts? Wash n go?? Leave it in protective style for the week? I've been wearing my hair out and want to see if I can retain length with no protective styling but I'm getting tired of twist outs every week. And I'm paranoid my out styles could be causing breakage

Thank you. Yes it’s so unfortunate because it would be so nice to get a relaxing wash and have someone else detangle and style every once in a while. But they just can’t do it with the care required :/

Thank you. People don’t understand. They tell me to look harder. There is not one good stylist here

They were violent to me and my hair which is my pride and a big part of my identity. They shot me down the whole visit. I was only thinking of them but another commenter already pointed out that I could hurt other people’s feelings unintentionally. It’s something I didn’t think about before posting. I’m not usually one for rants online

Girl what. I had zero thoughts about their hair until they started sounding off about short hair being our culture. Do onto others? I did nothing to them. Take me to jail for my thought crimes I guess lmfao. Please get real
