Where are YOU Lacking in Your Journey?

[Sapphire_chic]

i too voted for technique. I wish i could flat twist and cornrow with consistant results but one week my flat twist out is banging and the next week it looks rubbish. i know this comes with practice but i am just not getting any better.
I don't know if this is affecting my journey as i"m still pretty much 100% protective styling for now.

 

[Jetblackhair]

I voted knowledge because I've been experiencing breakage, little pieces of hair and I don't know what's causing it.

Technique is a second runner up because I have had no success with straightening my hair using a flatiron.

OP, you didn't put my problem in your poll: CONSISTENCY

I now know what my hair needs and what to do to retain, even how often, and I've found the products I need.

But I never do these things like I'm supposed to. My regimen is to cowash daily, spritz with aphogee, then hawaiian silky, etc. and keep my edges taken care of. Do I do it? Nope.

I'm ticked up with myself for not keeping up with what I'm supposed to be doing and I could surely kick my own butt,

I like this thread, though.

I agree 100%. That's my problem, consistency. It has always been my no.1 problem unfortunately.

Knowledge!!! I am still trying to find out what my hair needs and when it needs it.

Consistency, Patience and Technique. I get extremely lazy often and just leave my hair leading to breakage and HAM matting :/ Im also feeling antsy about reaching my goal length

I need to kick myself in the butt as well

You'd think so huh?

Until you get a lil length and start thinking you're all that and fall off your reggie.
Don't fall victim.

I voted technique! If I knew how to braid my transition would be much easier!

[SignatureBeauty]

Mine is Patience & Technique because starting from a Twa and wearing one for 6-9 months daily can become very very boring and can get frustrated, and if I knew how to do more styles I would be ok, plus when I see Texlaxed styles it makes me want to texlax, so I have a host of issues LOL!!

Sealing Ends!

Every since my favourite product was changed (the company added coconut oil), I can’t use it anymore. I haven’t found anything else that’s as good.

 

[lovenharmony]

It would have to be technique. I can't cornrow, french braid, flat iron, or do a decent braidout. But I can do a mean bun!

[Highly Favored8]

For me I would honestly have to say products. I say this for me before I was using the worng products that did not work for my hair which have caused me a major setback.

 

[Mad Scientist]

I said Technique. I don't really know how to do anything with my hair other than wear it in a hairband. I'm thinking of going to a stylist.

I have not had a moisturizer for my entire hair journey. I tried different ones, but none of them worked for me. I think I've found one now though.

 

[Lovestyr]

I would have to choose knowledge because I cant seem to tell when my hair needsd clarifying or just moisture.erplexed

 

[-PYT]

I'm transitioning and not sure how to detangle? Or if it is even necessary? sorry if this is a repeated topic, but could anyone shed light on what they've done?

 

[mysoon2behair]

Finally!!..I have my moisture and protein balance down. I voted for technique. I still need to work on self relaxing, roller set, be more creative with protective styling. I'm tired of my phony bun.

So Did I Girl! I had to give it up for a while.

 

[Truth]

I voted Technique... I haven't mastered how to get my curls defined and staying that way instead of turning into a poofball by the end of the day..

I think I'm going to have to soon too. It's getting played out!

 

[PeanutButterandHoney]

I voted products. I can't afford to even try something that might work for me.

Girl STOP! ! !

 

[mscocoface]

To use the words in the bible......My people are destroyed for lack of KNOWLEDGE.

I just did a big ole thread about protein because of some issues I am having with my hair.

 

[Lita]

I wish I knew how to dust my own ends.Other people claim they can (Oh well)
Happy Hair Growing!

I voted products, but its more like equipment. I need better dryers and a decent flat iron. I want a small mixer for my butters and creams too. I guess I'm also looking for the perfect humectant free moisturizer for the dry months and an inexpensive curling custard. (I really have to stop - this could go on forever I think.)
