I saw that same video and was feeling the same wayTocktick, I think we all should just let it go. People will never understand. If you critique someone's regimen, you're deemed a hater and it equals to you disliking that person.
I wish that most of the women who admire her videos, know that her regimen just may not work on their hair. What if her (the subscriber) hair is in horrible shape? And she starts using all of that heat and thinking her hair will look like Ateya's? I mean seriously. People need to look at some of the videos that Ateya fans are making in regards to trying her regimen. One girl I saw...can you say thin thin thin thin stringy hair? Balding edges? But yet she still proceeded to glue in tracks because Ateya did it? I was watching that video like "are you serious?"
I agree with another poster who said that this whole thing was blown out of proportion. No one was being downright nasty to Ateya or calling her bad names or insulting her. People just like to read too much into things sometimes, as always...same person.....

I think it is hard to separate the two.
If I write a book and people read it and then they call it crap, isnt that like inadvertently dissing the author too?

I'm glad that she's found a routine that works for her, but that's a lot of heat, a lot of protein, a lot of manipulation and a she relaxes her hair within an inch of it's life.
If I were focusing on looks vs substance then i'd take on her regimen, but I don't think it's sustainable for healthy hair or length retention over the long term.
I do enjoy her videos and her hair is pretty, but I gotta tell the truth on that regimen.
Girl I was thinking the same thing. Why in the world is she combing her hair with that small toothed comb so excessively, yikes! But her hair is on point lol!!!

i agree. Everyone has something about their regi that works for them but could cause all types of drama to another. Everyone's hair is different.
I agree. just like Baggying and air drying. No heat caused my hair to break and baggying caused me to have split ends. like i have said, everything ain't for everybody. We all know that, so why the continuous debate over Ateyaa's? Baggying and Air drying get recommended to people all day everyday, and Ateyaa isn't pushing her regi off on anyone.
Air drying just didn't work for me. i tried and tried it and it broke my hair off and i had to get a trim.
Yes, the majority, but what others are saying is that some negative comments were there. i saw that thread that day as well and i saw some that made me shake my head. Maybe we were looking at different ones.
At the bolded, i didn't know that made a difference. I thought healthy hair outweighed length. her hair looks healthy to me. i guess since my hair ain't long i can't say nothing now.erplexed
Girl, yes I am with you on that. When I read that..... I'm like what does long hair have to do with it. Some people's short/medium length hair looks better and than someone who has longer hair. Not saying it's all about looks but still.......
I soooo hope this thread doesn't get locked

What does long hair have to do with it? BECAUSE PEOPLE WERE CALLING OTHERS "HATERS". Saying that the people who criticized her regimen were "hating" on here. Have you read the comments on youtube? Even here? Saying that people were just hating cause their hair wasn't as healthy and swingin like hers? That they're bald-headed, etc.
So yeah, that's why I stated what I said, LOL. The majority of the women who were criticizing her DID have hair longer AND healthier than hers. My only issue was that people called others "haters." I (and I know I'm not the only one) didn't think that was necessary, but whatever.
I agree, Ateya is the Beyonce of the Hair Board. Nobody is allowed to give her props while still making comments that constructively criticizing what she did. I see no one on the opposing side even bothered to notice what I said about a youtuber making a video, gluing weave in her balding hair all because Ateya did it....hmmmm...see what I mean. We can't say anything about "her regimen is not the healthiest, that way it won't work for everyone." Because obviously, it doesn't.
Hell, if I made a video relaxing my hair darn near root-to-tip, I'm pretty sure people would comment asking me why I was overlapping so much. Why would I get mad because someone noted the obvious, and questioned me about it? It ain't like I overlapped .5 an inch.....more like 3-4inches. I don't get why one person is excluded from it all. Nobody was making threats against the girl, burning crosses in her front lawn, or saying she was a horrible person. That's crazy. People are delusional and obviously just want to have something to fuss about.
But in the end, whatever. Ateya will continue to do what she wants with her hair, achieving the results she wants. Obviously, her regimen is working for her, but people shouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work for them. She can do her thing, and everyone else's can do theirs. If everybody wants to follow her regimen like it's God's will cause it will grow their hair, then do it. If no one can CONSTRUCTIVELY criticize it due to being equated with sinners who didn't follow Jesus' teachings, then so be it.
Y'all are really blowing this WHOLE situation out of proportion and making it bigger than what it is or should be. I guess I should just leave the Hair Board to the newbies who follow every bandwagon (yes, AND I used to be one of them), cause the "oldies" who have now learned and have common sense, aren't welcomed to spread knowledge and experience over here anymore
. Excuse us from just trying to prevent another "I did everything (insert person here) did, but my hair doesn't look like hers!" mishap.

Oh wow. I am here to let you know that every "newbie" that comes here isn't jacked up by the head. this site isn't just about starting your hair regimen from scratch. some of us are simply learning to maintain and learn more. that don't mean we ain't have something right from the beginning.
Nobody is saying what she's doing isn't wrong to some degree. we all know overlapping isn't cool and eventually will lead to damage, but as others have stated, your hair can become damaged from a whole lotta other things aside from that. its been plenty of bandwagons that people have jumped on and fallen off. its about trial and error, something that everyone goes through. So just because you know something now, don't mean u knew it then. Don't act like because u know it now that you're above everyone else. That to me makes you the worse person, because no one knows everything, even the "oldies"

I typed a response earlier to this, but apparently the thread got deleted when I submitted it (and somehow resurrected).
Anyway, if you read, I never stated that I was above anyone else. I used to be on bandwagons too until I realized what worked for me and that what EVERYONE else does isn't what's always for me. I have a fotki to prove my journey, so why would I lie and act as if I've always had perfect hair? smh.
And ummmmmm, yeah, I'd rather have healthy thick shoulder length hair than unhealthy stringy MBL hair length too, so I don't see how that comment goes with anything that I stated before.
Once again, people reading too much into stuff, looking for something to argue about.
Anyhoo, in the end, no one's hair is being affected (for those who actually know better). I'm tired of responding now, lol. If you get it, you get it, if not, then oh well.
Burn your hair out and rip it out with glue all you want. Take it as your learning experience. Don't come back here complaining about it. I like to co-wash, that's like someone who admires my hair, co-washing their hair even if it makes their hair fall out.....that's crazy. I have no problem with someone stating that my regimen doesn't work for them. Geez.

I didn't come here with wrecked hair and i won't leave with it. Yes, my relaxer has been overlapped a few times but nothing bad came from it. I don't glue tracks in my head, so thanks for the advice, but i think i got it.I typed a response earlier to this, but apparently the thread got deleted when I submitted it (and somehow resurrected).

and i never said that it was a problem stating that regi's don't work for everyone, thats my main thing as to why all this hoopla over Ateyaa. i know that everything doesn't work for everybody. ateyaa's regi could work for some and not for others, just like with everything else. Thats all i was saying. i hope u didn't take what i said offensive, but i'm stating my view just like everyone else, so i would like it if you didn't respond to me in that type of manner.

Just b/c a person has long hair doesn't mean they can't hate one a person who has shorter hair. Everyone who has long has doesn't mean that their hair actually looks good. I'm not saying anyone was hating but when someone is trying to do good or things that they love, here comes the negativity and the haters as well as the positive. I think I remember, maybe, one or two posts that mentioned hating so it wasn't like everyone was saying it. I don't remember anyone saying they were hating b/c their hair wasn't swinging or looking like hers.
Who is ya'll? I don't think I'm blowing anything out of proportion. I could say the same thing about you.....I have read some of your post in other threads along with this one that to me seem critical and maybe rude but I could have taken that the wrong way so.....I kept it moving. Yes, i believe that all the people who were being rude were blowing it out of proportion. Afterall, she said repeatedly this is what works for her.
As for being an oldie, I'm an oldie. I still suffer setbacks. You learn new things everything. There is nothing wrong with spreading knowledge but I honestly think there is a certain way it should be said and done.
Also for the girl who glued tracks, I haven't seen that video(maybe I need to check it out) I understand she wanted to do it after seeing Ateya but honestly if you don't have enough hair to cover the tracks or are bald, then YOU should know better. Now that's common sense, at least to me. I knew this way before coming to LHCF or any hair board.
