OMG, I can't cope with Lily moaning about her hair constantly. Just do something about it! If I was her, I'd get rid of those horrible blonde ends first. Stop colouring it, stop straightening it, just leave it alone and let it grow back naturally. I don't know why she's so obsessed with trying to have straight hair. If she went to see a specialist hairdresser who actually knew what they were doing with her natural hair, she might learn to embrace it.

If she doesn't want tips and comments on her hair she really shouldn't have spent all the non AD time of her vlog moaning about it. What kind of engagement was she expecting? She's so so SO dim it's almost painful to watch. What was all that with her applying dozens of products in one go? What does she expect them to do? A bloody miracle? Her hair is beyond damaged and at the moment it won't look incredible but as many have commented here and on YouTube she can use plaits, create different styles etc while it recovers.

Even if she's not willing to embrace the curls and looks forward to getting back into applying heat, her hair needs at least a few months without heat, colour, bleach, just undergoing deep conditioning treatments. What's the point of frying your damaged hair and risk loosing it all if you are not even able to get a decent result afterwards?

I almost felt sorry for her regarding her family comments. She takes pride in them "not having filters" but "I don't have filters" is often a way of saying you are rude without saying you are rude. It would never cross my mind to mock the hair of a loved one when they are trying to get it to a better state - that's just insensitive and sad. I do hope this never gets to Grey.

What annoys me most about Lily moaning about her hair is the bad example she's setting to Grey. She's teaching Grey to not like curls, of which she has, she's teaching her to care a lot about appearances (just tie up or plait your hair, practical, heat free and just as pretty) and finally she's teaching Grey that her mother has zero patience so of course Grey will not have any neither

Totally this. One of the cool things that I've loved since becoming a parent is how it makes me reflect on my own views and behaviours, and while I've still got a lot of growing to do I do feel that it has changed me for the better and that I'm developing alongside my daughter in an effort to be the best I can be for her.
It's of course not always easy to examine yourself in this way and to change behaviours for more positive ones but it's so worth the work you have to put in.

I’ve always had curly hair and always worn it curly. I never did CGM but followed it in some ways (just because that’s how I did my hair). I’ve been seeing a lot about CGM recently so decided to give it a proper go (quite a relaxed version and without co-washing) and my hair is so different. A lot more volume at the roots and it looks better for longer. I know it’s much more of a jump for Lily but I feel like she is dismissing it without even giving it a go. And other have said I think that’s is because she really doesn’t want to wear her hair curly.

Those of you who said Lily can plait it, sure but LP that we know dislike her curl so much. She will STRAIGHTEN it first and then plait it because she is so extra.

She really also needs some hardcore therapy. The fact she’s SO neurotic about her hair must mean some deeper issues, right?! It’s like she uses straight hair as a security blanket. She even said she doesn’t feel clean without it. Or is she THAT vapid and narcissistic that her hair dictates whether she has a good day or a bad day?

Ladies, do you really think Lily is capable of braiding her hair? That would require some technical skills she sure doesn't own and not want to learn. Also, she is the most basic of all basic witches. We surely can't expect her to experiment with stuff as headscarves. As "creative" as she claims to be, this sure is not in her creative range.

Seems like she's been having issues with her hair for a very long time. She said in that vlog that she'd been using heat every day since she was 18, and that before that, she only like her curls when they looked 'wet' using a lot of product that made them rock hard. It all sounded quite deep rooted, pun intended. She not only needs a hairdresser to sort this mess out, but also a psychologist to help her figure out where this self-hate comes from.

She had braids on her wedding day. Of course she did not do them herself, but she knows the look 'works' for her.

Caps are fashionable at the moment. She could have thrown on a cap and made it look like a fashion moment ala Anna.

You are right, Rich would need to learn how to tie a hair. Rich has 2 toddlers to take care of.

Do you think she pitched the Vauxhall advert as 'a video where I moan and witch about my naturally curly hair and how life has been so unfair to me since I birthed my baby' - I just CANNOT believe brands work with her. She could've totally taken the approach that now lockdown is lifting they are able to explore more and filmed using the car in the city and going out to the countryside to show it's versatility. The info she repeated about the car is literally the information on the sales pitch on their website. It burns me up that someone so half arsed gets any sort of work.

On her hair - at best she has skimmed CGM and because it involves motivation, commitment and a bit of work has totally dismissed it. She could braid her hair or wear hairbands but she would rather sit there moaning about a situation which isn't even that tragic. I have a friend who lost all her hair during chemo and another who has had alopecia since she was a teenager. Both of them have acted with more dignity and grace than this spoilt a-hole does about a problem of her own making.

Its not fun but her reaction seemed over the top to me saying it was ruining her day ect. Personally I don’t have any sympathy for her hair troubles at the moment I’ve been dealing with some health issues since pre pandemic and trying to figure it out it puts things into perspective something Lily seems to be lacking...

I agree with all your comments re: her hair. She’s had a year where she could have taken a more laidback approach - I think that would have suited her images more! Posing in joggers with her hair tied up is more relatable (for those who have been WFH) than posing in jeans with her hair poorly curled!

She used to sometimes wear her hair in 2 French braids. I think they really suited her.

I assume she did them herself, though she did still live with her parents at the time so might have asked mummy to do it for her!

Yeah I have quite wavy hair that holds a curl well and the worst thing I can do is put it up in a scruffy top bun before bed. When I take it down I end up with loads of volume but it’s all irregular and I think quite damaging too. French plating on each side before bed to make an all over curl overnight, or a low pony tail with an invisibobble to avoid a crease works best for me plus a silk pillow of course. If she knows a scruffy bun is messing up her hair, why Is she still doing it?? 🙄 also way too much product and why does she keep scrunching it? Makes me sad for her hair how much she is abusing it. I hope she treats Grey’s gorgeous curls with more love and care. I dread to think all the insecurities she could force on her daughter 😔

I do think having crap hair can dent your confidence, the same way bad skin or bad teeth affect people.

The issue with Lily is she continues to do the things that damage her hair and then moans. She also has considerable resources to hand (which most people don’t) to find a solution. There are trichologists for example, who can look at your hair and scalp issues. She can most definitely afford one.

I honestly feel like she's purposely bleeping up her curly hair and making it look worse than it has to be in an attempt to make a point. She's hoping if she shows her followers just "how bad her hair looks naturally" then they will side with her and say, "ok, you're right, it looks bad--you're better off just straightening it." And then she'll be able to go ahead with her self-destructive behavior and not feel guilty about it because she'll have people's backing and enabling. Because she ultimately WANTS to keep straightening her hair; as we've all heard she has a deep hatred for curly hair. Problem is, when she shows her natural hair, she actually gets the opposite reaction: people being horrified by how much she's already destroyed her hair and advising her to cut off heat entirely. At that point, she gets annoyed (or "frustrated," as she would say) that people aren't giving her the reaction she was hoping they would have. I don't know why she KEEPS trying though because she's been harping on about the same things for years trying to persuade people that her natural hair wasn't worth working with, yet people have continuously given her the same advice, which is to embrace her curly hair. You know what they say: "when there's a will, there's a way." If Lily really wanted to fix her natural hair, she could/would. But she has no will. So she's going to keep making every excuse under the sun to justify giving up on her natural hair. And that's the reason why I'll never feel sorry for her, even when she ends up as bald as a coot.

My first reaction when I have a bad hair day is to just tie it up. Considering how much she hated the look of her hair throughout the whole video, I really cannot comprehend how it wouldn't occur to her to put it in a low bun, or ponytail, or braids, or ANYTHING. Heck, she could even have put on a hat or beanie to cover it. She didn't even mention any of these options, which makes me think she purposely just wanted to look as bad as possible for the video so people would enable her straightening it. Everything she did to her hair just seemed to make it look worse. When she kept spraying it with water and adding product to it and shaking it all over the place, I was cringing SO BAD. It was honestly making me physically uncomfortable the way she was handling it. No wonder she feels "dirty" after she's done so much tit to it. She also talked about how she can't sleep with her hair down so she has to put it up "in a pineapple," but "the worst thing about curly hair is that if you tie it up it's ruined" -- and I'm just sitting here like, "hello? You ever heard of a silk bonnet?" Again, just purposely making it worse than it has to be. Most importantly, she's not giving her hair any break by just straightening it on Sunday night rather than Saturday morning. It literally makes zero difference. She was just trying to prove a point.
