Five of the Best: It’s All About Hair

HAIR!

There is so much to do with it! You can grow it long or keep it short; it can be styled in a braid or you can use a curling iron to make beach waves for days; and it can be dyed every colour under the sun. It’s one of the many ways we can express ourselves and that’s what we love the most about it! In fact, we love it so much that we decided to dedicate an entire article to the numerous videos our favourite YouTubers have filmed in regards to it. (We wish ours looked as good as theirs.)

Prepare for some major hair inspo with our Five of the Best: It’s All About Hair!

How I Cut & Shape My Natural Hair | FusionofCultures

If you ask us, Laila-Jean Washington has the most gorgeous hair we’ve ever seen. Ever wanted to learn how she cuts and styles it? Then this video is the one for you!

To start off the video, Laila explains to her viewers how her hair grows, as well as her plans for it in 2018. After informing us on the type of clippers she’ll be using, she gets right to work, and the result is an overall relaxing video that also works as a DIY tutorial for those of you interested in trying this at home. What we love most about Laila’s channel is her emphasis on healthy hair. While it might be nice to have long locks, what’s the point if the hair at the end is split and breaking off? That’s not to say you can’t have both long AND healthy hair. Laila even has a video where she shares her tips on how to optimise your hair’s growth!
