My friend asked me to grease his scalp because he has dry scalp. What products can I suggest to combat this? I refuse to grease a grown man's anything. Especially if he isn't my man..
 
Soooooo I'm getting kinky twist/Senegalese twist done this weekend by a friend who just finished beauty college. I'm a little worried that they won't come out like I want. Grrrrrrr Lord I pray they do.

Texlaxed hair is working for me, but last weekend I suddenly had an area that broke off at the line of demarcation.
:(

I do not have time to be bothered with babying my hair until that section grows back.

I think I had moisture overload.

Sorry to hear that! How many weeks post are you?

Are you going back to using heat?
 
What a dang minute... I used coconut oil to take my marley twists out and then slathered alot on to pre poo overnight. Dummy. I forgot my hair is anti oil before washing. No wonder my hair is revolting this week.

Mother freaking eureka. Sorry. But my hair hasn't misbehaved like this in a while. I've trying to figure it out all week.
 
Watch, the one day I need USPS to get here before 1pm they dont. Any other time , USPS is knocking at 10 am in the morning.


It figures the time I have an appointment they decide to get here when they get here.

My flexis are all old, and I'm excited to get some new ones!! I was surprised that the one on wet hair took so long to dry and wasn't as smooth as the ones I do on damp or dry hair. I'm definitely saving these for when my hair is almost dry :)
 
I took a paddle brush to my hair last night, and attempted to wrap my hair. Smh. I need another 1-2 in. cut asap!!
 
@Napp

only 5 weeks post.

Soo the new growth is like 1 inch.
Its a HHJ tragedy. :(

But I'm staying positive.

Oh no. I hope it wasn't too noticeable and you have enough hair to cover it up. If you're gonna transition, how long are you planning to do it?
 
@naija24
Thanks!

Its not noticeable to the public lol.

Right now, I have my hair in a low bun. You can't tell anything is going on in there.

I went ahead and cut majority of my length back to SL and then cut the hair around the "special" area to around 2 inches (to avoid tangling/matting).

No turning back from transitioning now. lol.

I will transition til my natural hair is at least SL (because I want to be able to style it)...

The last time I did a BC (2009) I was left with 2 inches of hair after BC'ing after 10 weeks... and I will not be doing that again. lol

2 years max.
Praying for a smooth transition.
 
God what a difference trims make. There really is no point holding on to crap ends. My hair may feel shorter but it looks soooo healthy right now. Yay!! No more crunchy ends.

You were one of my hair inspirations!! I'll be following your journey!!

I think personally that BCing is way easier than transitioning but idk....it could be fun. I want to attempt it for a year max. Probably 8-10 months realistically. Since I don't want long hair really, and I want to be a straight haired natural anyway, getting to neck length seems reasonable to be before cutting.
 
You'd think folks in the salon never seen natural hair before. Every time I come in to get a weave, usually 3 times a year, folks gawk once the ponytails come off. My hair may not be long but it sure is healthy.

One of the stylists told me last time shes 90% natural because she relaxes her leave out. She thought I was going to say something, but what for its her hair. I wasn't surprised though, I know a lot of women who do that.

But I will say, once some of those weaves come out, those hairlines are nonexistent. I have to catch myself to not stare.
 
This semester did a number on my hair. I was so neglectful... I need to find someone asap to braid my hair, or just suck it up and do it myself.
