Your 4c hair is growing — so why isn’t it longer? | Trichologist answers | Hair Hotline ep.1

Описание: In this first episode of Hair Hotline, I answer real hair dilemmas submitted by the community using evidence-based trichology, not trends.

We’re breaking down two of the most common concerns I hear:
Hair that feels “stuck” or like it hasn’t grown in years
An itchy, flaky scalp that seems to get worse with oiling

If you’ve been told your hair has reached a genetic limit, or you’re constantly battling dryness and flakes despite using all the “right” products, this episode is for you.

In this video, I explain:
Why hair doesn’t just stop growing — and what’s really happening when length stays the same
The difference between growth and retention, especially for coily and textured hair
How breakage, tension, and everyday habits quietly chip away at length
The key differences between a dry scalp and dandruff
Why oiling a flaky scalp can actually make irritation worse
How to reset the scalp properly using hygiene, not heavy layering

Hair can feel complicated, but biology is predictable. Once you understand what your hair and scalp are responding to, care becomes a lot simpler.

If you have a hair concern you’d like me to break down in a future episode, submit your dilemma here:

Stay curious, stay hydrated, and keep it UNTD.
