I love her youtube I may have to try some of her things for makeup.
Sanda woman with beautiful hair have been wearing extensions forever. Some do it for volumn some for length. Some like short hair but when needed can add the weave for a different look or special ocassion.
Welcom Ateya.
That’s just like Rossi from 106 & Park she cut off all of her hair to only wear extentions now.
Welcome, welcome, Ateya. Thanks for the tips. I’m going to go out and buy the Apophgee (however you spell it) and start taking your advice. I have to perm my hair (even though I’m the only female in Cali who does)and because my hair is so got-damn thick, I have to press it, too. I know that is damaging my hair, but I like to wake up in the morning with my hair falling into place as soon as I take off my silk scarf.
Yup, ‘ppreciate it!
Her hair looks good and healty. I like it better without the added hair though.
Welcome Ateya. Maybe Sandra will let you have a hair section here. I could really use your help.
Forgot to add. I know your on youtube but I need printed instructions. Kinda slow that way.
I love love love your youtube video’s I go and get my hair done usually everyweek and my hair stylist uses those products on my hair my hair is color treated now but still healthy as hell!!! you gave good advice and f@#k the HATERs everybody need a job and they are doing theirs to the best of their ability and in my opinion they doing good but so r you keep it up
welcome ateya! i ♥ ur vids!
mzsuave…all that hair is a blessing, girl. i know very well what you mean about cali chicks not having perms. when i moved to jersey, EVERY stylist was trying to throw one in my head (simply because they couldn’t press.) trust that u aren’t the ONLY one, though.
♥
LOL @ #7…I was thinking the same thing, too.
Trulyposh…girl, when I first moved back to Cali in ‘98, they tried pressing my hair…my hair said “WTF are yall trying to do?!!” Lol. Every girl’s press out here was silky, not my country hair. I still had a baby fro’ right after a press.
hmmmmm please tell me, does beautiful good = good hair ?
good hair= straight hair ?
well you know i went to college in the 80’s and 90’s and during this time we were public enemy up, poor righteous teacher followers. medallion wearing and krs1 followers. on my hbcu campus, they tried to dispel the image of good hair verse bad hair.
WELCOME ateya!!! your real hair looks nice and healthy. luv it!
and yeah i have really thick hair too @ Mz Suave so i too have to put a relaxer in it or it gets out of control. i tried doin the pressing thing alone and w/no relaxer but my hair does not like fog, rain, humidity or plain ol sweat and my hair would poof right on out of its style, LOL.
@ #6
You know that would be a really good idea….I hope Sandra peeps your comment.
I left out Ateya welcome gurl….continue to do you and be you and ignore the haters but at the end of the day if your name aint in they mouth then you aint shyt. Like Kat Williams say you need to figure out how to get 30 more of them bytches to hate…lol There is a lot of people who respect the info that is given by you so keep it up.
Beautiful hair! Too bad all weave wearers can’t make it look that good
I don’t see any bumps at all and it matches perfectly! Man you make me want to get one 
teecee…my definition of ‘good hair’ is ‘healthy hair!’
i don’t subscribe to the notion that long, curly/wavy hair means that it’s ‘good’ and i absolutely hate it when people (black and non-black, alike) feel the need to comment on the texture of mine. you got some indian in you? what are u mixed with? aarrgghh…that’s a sure fire way for a nigro to get the boot and a heffa to get cussed out. it just urks me the way some of our people are still so obsessed with it…
mzsuave…your hair looks good/healthy in ur pic. so whoever ur going to is hooking u up
♥
Welcome Ateeya
Ahhhh - I can’t see the video
I love my healthy head of hair, and I appreaciate a good stylist, and one who encourages healthy heair maintenance! If it’s one thing I can’t stand is beauticians threatening to put a perm in my hair if I come back…you think I done went back? I hate that ish! Has anyone ever saw Tears, Shears and Beauty on BETJ?
Welcome Ateeya…I love your wigs demos. I feel your pain. I have superthick curly hair that is super hard to manage without a blowout (which only lasts like a day or 2) and no one understands why I sometimes wear half wigs…
Keep doing you mama!
WELCOME Ateya!
Her videos and advice about products are great! Especially Beauty Encounter and where to get Flat Irons/Hair Products.
Thanks Sandra for putting me on to her this week
Welcome Ateya!
I’mma need to check out your site, b/c I need help w/my sides…..AARRRGGGHH! LOL
teecee Says:
hmmmmm please tell me, does beautiful good = good hair ?
good hair= straight hair ?
____________________________________________________________
No it doesn’t it all means healthy hair to me….Ateya’s was/is a shiny example…..
Her hair is very very nice… But had she said “so” one more time - I would have pulled out my own hair
Welcome!! I thought the video was very informative.
Welcome Ateya…thanks for all the good tips!!! Kizzez to u too gyrl :-)!!!
Welcome Ateya & thanks for all the GREAT TIPS… I would like to tell you I looked at the video yesterday about all the products she used on her hair. I went and spent $100 on all the stuff including the new big barrel curling iron and hair dryer. I did my hair last night with all her tips and I looked as if I had just left the salon. I will now do my own wash and wrap… The $100 was well worth it. I will now only go to the salon for perms or up do’s…..
@ brownsugar2874
Damn girl, you don’t play. May we see some pics?
@brownsugar if your in Atlanta please tell me what store you used. I’m in Midtown.
Weave always looks better when your own hair is healthy. I was interested to know what method of weave she used. It was so flat that it didn’t look like cornrows.
I agree…Ateya, welcome. I use Aphogee, as well, but I wear my hair molded with extensions on top, so I don’t get to see the benefits of the product. After seeing how beautiful your hair is, I think I might lay off of the weave for a while and doctor on my real hair. Thanks for all the tips!!
Welcome Ateya and thank you for the hair tips. I stop going to hair salons about a year ago and buy a lot of products for my hair as well.
Leslie

Hope this helps…

I am totally into healthy hair. I get my hair professionally done weekly. But, are y’all serious. This is supposed to be am entertainment blog not a hair tips blog. Get real!
Good to know I’ve been doing just about everything right, but I didn’t know about that Dry Touch conditoner to lay down my edges, lol. I’m currently growing my perm out though but the girl that does my hair gets my hair straight and i have about two inches of very wavy, curly new growth. I hope Ateya shows how to take glued out tracks out your hair without damaging your natural hair.
Lisa….I take my tracks out with Oil Sheen…if you do to YOUTUBE…the tutorial is called
MY HAIR INTRO-THE TAKE OUT
I use Kera Care Oil Sheen
Here it is….
copy and paste
Sorry it wont let me post it….
Hair Intro Remix-Take Out…check it out
I need hair help…Ateya…I need to contact you personally! LOL!

Wow … I’m impressed … I have a Question ? ? my scalp ..i have curly wavy hair and I like for my hair to MOVE …if I use anything other than tea tree products my scalp HURTS itches and is sooooo dry .. I am looking for a moisturizer for my SCALP that won’t weigh my hair down ….. AND dosen’t have a heavy scent. .
any suggestions ? ? ?
Ateya do you cut the hair or just wear it straight? I really liked the before hair b/c you had the bangs and the style, it was really cute on you.
Thanks for the product list and the tutorial.
Sandra, thanks for posting Ateya’s videos, and Ateya thanks for your wisdom. When Sandra posted the video a few days ago, I got a chance to watch about 8 or 9 of your other videos. I ordered the Camo pink Chi irons and got some of the products that you used but I couldn’t find the Green Tea products. Nonetheless, my rap hasn’t been tighter, I have been wrapping my hair with both the stocking cap and bandana like you do, the past 3 nights, and bumping my hair the night before with the big irons before wrapping. You saved me a good 30 minutes in the morning. So double thanks!
