Thanks for the link. I am at my wits end right now with my hair. I love the texlaxed texture but it is getting hard to deal with. And i'm getting a lot of breakage when it comes down to detangling.
 
I remeber reading the book she refers to Good Hair in the 90's. It was a good read esp. since there were few good haircare books back then. Alot of her techniques remind me of ladies on naturallycurly. thanks op her hair is pretty and reminds me of midnitecurl's hair.
 
Cool site. :yep: I gotta give it up to her for showing all those pics with bad hair days. She is brave for sharing those pics. But it shows that her hair has come a long way.
 
Her curls seem to get smaller at the end of the shaft (as it gets longer). I have never seen that. I have always seem th opposite. What is her hair type 3b/c?

Giiirrl, I thought it was 2 girls. I just perused her site and discovered that that is a boy. Wow, he was really pretty and I thought he had a jumper skirt on so I thought it was a girl :lachen:
 
Great find. I use the very same techniques on me & my daughters' hair, but I learned it here on LHCF. I wish her loads of luck on her book and to those who unfortunately never find LHCF like we did.
 
Thanks for sharing..did you see the part where she says she hasn't trimmed her ends in 10 years?...interesting...
 
Cool site.

Has anybody ever saturated their hair w/ conditioner and just left it on? I dunno how that would work out...something to try I guess.

I don't rinse all the conditioner out when cowashing but tomorrow morning I am going to try it her way and see how it goes. My head best not look like a white goopy mess :lachen:

I guess since there is less weight to stretch the hair on the ends, it gets tighter. She refered to that at some point on her site.
 
I dilute my aPhogee balance moisturizer in my palm with water and leave it in. She used a whole lotta conditioner but she has a whole lotta hair to work it through.

I used to. It did define my hair and make it glossy but I frequently overdid it which led to some crunchiness when it dried. I found that sealing it with serum helped keep that at bay. I don't think it's any different than a really creamy leave in though = just a tad heavier, and the way she combs/detangles most of the excess should be removed.

Makes me want to go natural just to see what'll happen.

Yeah, ditto. I'd love to try what she said on my little 4a coils and see how it turned out. Her before and after pics were very inspirational.

And the pic of her hair when it's shingled versus when she combs it dry. That was bushy like afro hair! Really showed me that technique makes all the difference in how your curls/coils look.

thanks for posting this. loved her site. great tips & info. I don't have type 3 hair either, but the heart of her techniques can definitely be applied to type 4 hair.

after i no-poo, rinse & towel dry. i moisture spray my hair and then apply botanical conditioner and just leave it in -- it definitely works!

So does she not rinse out the conditioner at ALL? Maybe I need to stop co-washing and just co.:look:

That is what I'm afraid of the sticky and coating feeling.
