Over the past 2 years or so that I've hung out around the hairboards, I've seen so many women crush the many myths surrounding our hair. Both natural and relaxed hair myths just go right out the window - it's a wonderful thing.
Any one who takes the time and is looking for help can get it and achieve their hair goals - relaxed, transitioning or natural.
Do what makes you happy, do it well and be happy lady !
Thanks so much for the
Right back at cha! :Rose:

LynnieB's general advice:
1. Be patient - it takes time to grow. :burning:
2. Don't allow frustration to destroy your progress. There will be times you feel discouraged but don't allow your emotions to knock you off your goals. :burning::burning: If you're really not feeling it then put it away - under a wig, in braids or twists and give those negative feelings time to go away (and they will eventually go away! ).
3. Find the right products and techniques. If you're experiencing a hair problem, diagnose what it is and correct it whether it's your technique or your products.
4. Don't become a prisoner to your hair! It's perfectly ok to enjoy all of your hard work (just use commonsense and be gentle)!
5. Stick with your regimen and let it be or else !!
