Pics of co-worker's grand-daughter thigh length hair

SherylsTresses - Did you ever find out what this girl's hair regimen is? All these posts about this girl's ethnic makeup and nothing about how her hair is taken care of... torturing us with this gorgeous pic of hair!!! :spank: :grin:
 
oh dear me. that is a lot of hair. I pray she has easy detangling hair. god bless her mama

it's very beautiful though.
 
Oh...my...God!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is LOVELY!!! I would be proud and mad at the same time if that was my kid. I wonder how long it takes to do her hair?
 
Poohbear
I no longer work with that employee. I will email him on Tuesday and see if I can get his granddaughter's hair regimen. I wonder if he would care to ask his daughter for it. They do live in another state but I'll give it a try.
 
HERE'S THE REGIMEN​

Hello,

Please pardon the delayed response to your email. This has been an eventful week to say the least. Here are the responses to your questions:


1. How often does she shampoo her hair?Her hair is washed every other week. In the past, it was washed once per week, but I switched to every other week (approximately 2 years ago) when I started paying someone else to wash it for me.

2. What shampoo does she use?Over the years, various shampoos have been used on her hair. I have used Optimum and Revlon for Women of Color. Currently, Regis shampoo for curly hair is being used.

3. What conditioner does she use and how often does she deep condition?Currently, the conditioner being used (when she go to get her hair washed) is called Bed Head Friz Control. At home, I regularly use a leave-in conditioner on her hair to keep it moisturized. It is called Parnevu and I use the breakage control and/ or tea tree formula. I try to apply a little to her hair every other day. I have used the Parnevu since she was an infant. I do not deep condition her hair at home and do not know if the lady that washes her hair does a deep conditioner.

4. Does she use a protein conditioner?I do not know the answer to this question. I'm not familiar with the Bed Head conditioner that is used on her hair when she goes to get it washed. So, I do not know if it is a protein conditioner.

5. What other treatments do she use?No other treatments being used that I am aware of.

6. How does she style it on a daily basis?Her hair is usually combed every other day. The sole purpose for this was because it became too time consuming. Also, to save time in the morning... I comb her hair at night before she goes to bed. Most of the time, I just keep her hair in 4 braids/ plats (spelling?). Every other night, I take the braids/plats (sp?) down, comb them out, and rebraid them until she gets her hair washed again.

7. What moisturizer and oil does she use on her hair?To keep her hair moisturized, I mainly use the Parnevu mentioned above. The oils that I use are Hair Food (by Proline) and Kera Care essential oils. I have used the Hair Food on her scalp since she was an infant. Hair Food is a heavy grease so I mainly put a little on her roots and ends. On the rest of her hair, I use the Kera Care essential oils (a few times per week). I order the Kera Care products from my Stylist. I like them because they are light and don't weigh the hair down. In the past, I have also used Pink Lotion on her hair.

8. How does she prepare it for bed?I wrap her braids around her head and then wrap her hair in a scarf that looks like a do-rag that guys use. It is just something I found at Wal-mart. It is long enough to be wrapped around her head and tied. Over that, I put a wave stocking on her head. It is something else I bought at Wal-mart. It is made of the same material as panty hose. I don't put the stocking on first because I don't want it to cause her hair to break and I've read that it is best to use silk scarves. I only use the stocking to keep the first scarf on her head... otherwise, everything falls off before morning.

9. Does she ever use heat on her hair via flat iron, blow dryer, curling iron, etc?I usually take her to the beauty shop to get her hair flat-ironed and trimmed about 2-3 times per year. That is the only time she gets her hair blow dried or curled with a curling iron. No other heat is used.

10. If so, what heat protectant does she use?I do not know what type of heat protectant is used at the beauty shop when getting her hair flat-ironed.

I don't know what pictures you have already seen, but I have attached some to this email. Most of the pictures show her hair down, either for a special occassion or because she (1) just got it washed or (2) is about to get it washed. I don't let her wear her hair down (unbraided) majority of the time because it gets caught in a lot of things and it can be very challenging to detangle it at the end of the day.

I hope this has been helpful. Have a GREAT day!
 
Simple, simple, simple. Wash, condition, leave -in, and oil. But I bet she has grown women buying Hair Grease and Parnevu off the shelves like crazy, lol.

I haven't read a thang, just saw all that BEAUTIFUL hair. Can I adopt this child? :lol:

Just WOW look at all that hair. I take it back, if I adopt her my arm will fall off from combing all that hair http://www.longhaircareforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=120149
 
That is a beautiful girl. Honestly I dont blame mama for paying someone else to do it. And I wouldnt cut it just because I wasnt up for the challenge. That is alot of hair.
 
Waits for the Proline Hair Food challenge! As a matter of fact, we loved that stuff growing up. It was yellow and really greasy! :)

I believe one poster was insinuating that we haven't seen a lot of Black people with that hair texture IRL, as in when we walk down the street in our neighborhood/city/town. People wanna clutch pearls like that's a lie and come all out the woodworks talking about African tribes and such with that texture....GTFOH, you know what she meant :rolleyes:

DISCLAIMER, I do think this cutie's hair is real and I am not questioning her heritage. I just wanted to point out something in the back-and-forth of this thread that troubled me....YES I have seen Black (full African, African-American, and a mix) people with that hair texture before in my life, and I'm pretty sure we ALL have, but I won't sit here and say I know a few personally or I see them walking down the streets of Durham NC every day.


*Waits for someone to come in throwing daggers and claim they live in the one town in America where more than 50% of the Black population has type 1-2 hair....that is natural....and growing from their scalp :lachen:*

I sure as hell don't and I live in one of the most urban (e.g. highly populated by African, African-American, and Latino ppl) areas of Durham, NC. :look: Bull City in da house! But lil mama is sooo pretty!

It's not that we think she COULDN'T be bi-racial, It's just that you have some people who will insist that she MUST be mixed, even when told that she is not. While her hair is certainly unusually long, some people think any little Black girl with hair BSL/MBL/WL has to be mixed and can't be convinced otherwise.

I grew up in the 70s and while WL+ hair was uncommon, I remember more little girls with long, thick hair than I see now. I never heard "you gotta be mixed to have long hair" until the 90s. I think this is a new phenomenon brought about by relaxer breakage. I will admit that people used to say you had to have "good" hair for it to be long, however.

Maybe this type of thought is regional, I dunno.

^^^^ This right here. I honestly had several friends when I was a kid, various hues of black, with thick, long 3c/4a/4b hair. Their parents didnt relax, but my mom let her inexperience and friends convince her to start relaxing me and I saw more of more of friends get poorly applied relaxers like I did and long (MBL/BSL) hair became less common. I think the 80s and 90s especially sent the possibility of more of our girls with hair like this out the window.

I also don't think Silky Edges/Roots imply Asian decent either.
