Less is not more when it comes to conditioner. Your head needs to be saturated with the stuff.

I agree!!!!! More is More when I am putting my conditioner on. I only use a tiny bit of moisturizer, but conditioner?!? Nah, my hair needs a lot.
 
why buy expensive products if cheap ones work just as good
shampoo isn't bad
cold water rinces aren't necessary
pre poo isn't necessary
say yes to combs
say yes to brushes
combing hair once a week :nono:
mineral oil isn't bad
nothing wrong with airdrying- it was done before electricity
nothing wrong with blowdrying- convience
MN works--don't knock me because I use it. And all MN isn't "coochie" cream.
naturals aren't making a statment
weaves don't look right


---I like this thread :grin: Im still thinking.

This is a Great Thread!! I must say that I agree with just about everything I read LOL!!! But this is so True! I am so glad people are speaking out:grin: I don't have anything to add, it has already been said!!!
 
Posting "am I SL/APL/BSL?" threads with stringy uneven ends that 2 strands are just barely grazing the answer is always NO!:nono:
 
Combing hair everyday is way overrated and does more harm than good to my hair.
Stretching for long periods does not make sense if it causes breakage. Retouches are not the enemy. It's about how chemicals are applied and how you handle your hair after your retouch.
Scraggly ends just need to be trimmed...period:yep:

Now that one had me cracking up!!!:lachen::lachen::lachen::lachen::lachen:

Puhleese comb your hair more often-combing sparingly does nothing for me.

Henna is overrated.

I agree naturals are not out to make a statement-I just love being a natural right now.
Why in God's name would I want to prepoo:wallbash::wallbash:

Black hair loves conditioners-so indulge!

Hair is not that serious -what you do with your life counts more at the end of the day!

Keeping it simple is really the truth.

Biotin at high concentrations (>2500mg) is really not necessary, MTG ain't all that and MN is not what I would use forever tho' it works.

I love this thread tho' I don't agree with some of the opinions but to each man his own:yep::yep::yep:
 
Straight hair is way overrated.

Wet hair is gross looking.

Lacefronts are wack.

Greasy hair is not cute.

Cones can be your friend.
 
Gonna go off the page for one second..............



Cattiness exists. Sometimes the cat house attitude of some makes me go :nono:. Some can never be happy for another without feeling the need to talk out the side of the neck (or out the bottom of their a$$).

Jealousy exists. Some will do their best to tear down another in a heartbeat with some snide remark or an okie doke compliment.

We are not all one big sisterhood of the hair, it's always what lies beneath, watch out.

If Veejayjay cream works for you, if horse spray works for you, if curry flakes and chili powder, seaweed, tofu, raw meat, bull semen, benchpressing 550 pound weights and running 5k marathons works for you -Then by God i am happy for you and i will not knock you (some of it makes me go :nono: and i hope and pray it's safe :grin:) but i'm honestly glad some folks have found something that works for them.

It's all good to me if it's good for you and you and YOU and YOU will not be be hearing me dissing any body or any one's lifestyle choices, body type/shape, hair, clothing, etc. even in a thread such as this.

sidenote: i always find these types of threads extremely fascinating. they really give you an good inside glance on how the people you interact with actually think and feel about others.

*Ayudera (or however its spelled) regimens. I really think if I started I could not see myself continuing. Its too much and not that serious.
*Stretching for fiftyeleven months. I mean really though, if your not trying to go natural there is no point. The only time I stretch is when I'm broke. It makes my hair break and I look a HAM! I just wait until I see enough NG.
*Cold water rinses. Soooooo I DC, moisturize, use a leave in, and seal. Thats enough. I refuse to suffer.
*No heat. Yall know my reasons. I have been growing my hair since the dates in my Siggy. I grew out that horrid color QUICK using heat. I tried the rollersetting for two months and I was demonic on my "rollersetting" days.
*Water based moistuizers. YEAH I SAID IT lol I think they are great for naturals or "natural" styles like twist outs but if I am wearing my hair straight which is 90 percent of the time, it aint gona work. I went back to my baby: Optimum Oil therapy dry hair and scalp quencher and will never go back. This stuff is more moisturizing than ANYTHING and I dont have to take that extra step to seal.
*Pre Poo's: I mean really, I do enough.
*I think there is such a thing of too much protective styling lol let you hair breathe lol some people (I know most of yall dont apply) do not how to take care of a protective style, walking around with an ashy bun.:nono:
*Going above and beyond for a product. I should not have to cross the border, make a ship, get a passport, and sail to Cambodia for a Deep Conditioner. Its not gona happen. If I cant find it in a 5 mile radius of my house, phucket. lol
*Not combing. If you hair is moisturized enough, and you use a shower comb and finger comb first, it is not the end of the world. I walked around looking homeless after 5 weeks post doing this.
*I will never self relax-If I did, Id be bald right now. No way, no how.
*non hair related: This "star rating". If someone gives you 1 star, move on with your life. Its only the internet. When I see a new thread, I def dont pay attention to the rating. Geesh! We are grown women (most of us:ohwell:), who cares?

I will be back with more

I'll start


- Sulfates aren't the debil....improper use of shampoo is
- Silicones are not evil.
- Air drying is over rated
- Not everyone can or should self relax
- alot of people have scalp damage and just don't know it

It bears repeating:drunk:

-some people showing BSL hair photos need to get bras that fit right, the strap too tight so it is up too high.
-I agree that some people are born with it.
-stretching and no-combing stinks, even if they help retain more.
-some people take this board too seriously
-hair is not that serious
-cheapies are not really all that.
-expensives are not really all that.
-rollersetting texlaxed hair does not get it straight.

I am sure there are others. I will be back.

Oh no you di-int! :naughty: Don't you know you're speaking against the LHCF code? Everyone MUST airdry!!! :lol:

-You're not APL if you have to excessively tilt your head to be so. Don't think I can't tell when you have your head cocked back at a 90 degree angle like some contortionist. Be real wit yaself!
