I know! I like buns and updos and protective styles; it's only a drag if you make it that way. I feel pretty with my sock bun.

For example! If you have ONE to TWO strands of hair that hit BSL BUT 99% of the rest of you hairs hem line is APL...you are APL! It irks me when people claim on that technicality. My opinion...sorry!
Stop taking length check pics with your head tilted BACK...that’s called "Length Cheating"!

This guy told me that i was "rocking that bun right" once.lol@! In the club at that tooI know! I like buns and updos and protective styles; it's only a drag if you make it that way. I feel pretty with my sock bun.
I have never looked boring w/a bun unless my hair was really short.

Heat can be a wonderful tool when used properly and in moderation
It's so easy to go overboard with it,and i think that's when a lot of heat damage occurs.

I like this thread!
Here's mine:
1. ANYbody can stretch their relaxer... you don't get breakage unless you're not properly/thoroughly balancing moisture and protein. It's okay to be too lazy to learn how to stretch, just stop blaming your hair! (PS, I agree, anything under 12 weeks doesn't count as a stretch to me...)
2. Baby trim those thin ends! I hate seeing pics of ladies with "BSL" or "MBL" hair but the thickness ended about 5 inches up... I'd rather thickness over length any day so why hang on to scraggly ends?
ETA: 3. I don't believe I need to buy expensive products to take care of my hair. Some of my best products are "cheapy" products and I find nothing wrong with them!

I clarify every time I wash; I use too much product not to, and my hair doesn't suffer b/c of it.
I don't dig co-washing.
I only moisturize/seal when my hair needs it, not every night.
I use cheapie conditioners WAY more than any other. Like I'm talkin dollar Suaves and the like. My hair loves it.
Beautiful hair is not equal to long hair; I have seen too many (both IRL and online) long haired people being told that their hair is beautiful just because it's long, when in fact it is dry, stringy, the ends are broken and see through, and their edges/ nape are nonexistent.

I don't believe you need a $300.00 piece of equipment to make your hair grow

WHY do you clog up somebody's PM box asking them how to get similar results, when you refuse to do what is required? Pls don't waste my time with 
"Why won't my hair grow?" questions when you sleep with your hair loose on a brillo pad sheet every night, refuse to protective style, and don't believe in vitamins. 
You already KNOW why your hair won't retain, stop playing games.

This thread is funny...(i must add things lol am pms'ing)
-Why baby split ends...Just trim them...Short hair is hot too!
-Not all conditioners are deep conditioners
-Not all ingredients must be avoided like a disease
-NO NO NO am not co washing 3 times a week...I don't want to wet my hair that much! PERIOD
-Protein is not the DEVIL. just a little strong lol
-Sleeping with a bag...Um WHY?!
-And finally I am not putting any creams that belong in my butt on my HEAD!
Completely off topic and I apologize, but your hair is just so gorgeous I swear.

Me too...and I like the Chinese Braided Bun, but I don't braid it.
But anyway, I don't understand how buns make people look unpretty or unkempt. It's not like you have to wear a naked Ms. Trunchbull bun...pull out some tendrils, make a swoop bang, put in a headband, wear some show-stopping earrings, try out a lavish hairstick, throw a flower on that b****...just do something.
How does pulling your hair out of your face and eyes make you look like you just marched out of the bush? Isn't it the opposite?
I mean..whenever I watch movies and there's some wild person living in the woods trying to kill folks, the wild person is not wearing a bun with a cute little flower clip in it. I don't understand.
And I really hope that no one is offended by the following, but IMO, the only way that a bun should make you feel unpretty is if you don't think that your face is pretty on its own, without some hair around it. Because generally, with a bun and with all pulled back styles, that's what's most on display. *shrug*
I apologize for the rant, but I've been thinking about this for a minute.
I learned that the hard way. The pibbs was a total waste of money for me. Never again.

Adding more...
-If you aren't healthy on the inside how do you expect to be healthy on the outside?
-If you aren't financially stable, stop trying to jump on every bandwagon and becoming a PJ. Some ppl can afford to do it but if u can't, learn to buy/use things within your budget!!
-Cutting your hair does NOT make it grow. Preventing split ends from traveling up the hair shaft DOES
-What works for someone else won't always work for you so don't be surprised...
-Growth aids don't always work and no product grows your hair overnight so be patient while maintaining your healthy tresses.

Just because YOU couldn't do it, doesn't mean *I* cannot do it.

Natural hair isnt for everybody
. Just admit it and move on. If you have to chemically alter your hair everytime you get a considerable amount of new growth,blast it with crazy amounts of heat and potentially harmful fumes drop the facade that you are natural. You arent. No one is holding a gun to your head forcing you to be natural
:swordfigh. Just embrace the fumes and move on with your life.

Thin ends are not ALWAYS damaged ends!!!
Personally, I like blunt/even hair, but too often I hear stylist say that if your ends are thin they're damaged. Some people hair just grows uneven. For example, your nape could shoot down at a faster rate leaving the top behind making the ends appear thin, but they are not damaged. I have to keep mine cut/trimmed because spots on the the left side of my head are a completely different texture then the right and grows at a faster rate always leaving my ends lop-sided. I dont relax my edges cause the don't even have a curl pattern so my texture is mix-matched everywhere, lol. In these scenarieo's cutting/trimming ends are for vanity, not health and should be your choice.
EVERYBODY's hair grows whether they take all the crazy suppliments or use the bandwagon products!!!
I look at those just like quick weight loss. Its better to start and keep a routine that you can sustain. Retention comes from care and consistance. I learned that the hard way :-/.
