Texturizing is when you use the texturizing products to define your "natural" curl patterns. I use it in my hair and my cousin uses it in hers and we have two totally different curl patterns. It can burn if you have been scratching in your head like a Mad Woman but I've never had any problems with major burns or anything!! Hope this helps!What's the difference between texlaxing and texturizing?

you can't use a shower cap during hardcore protein treatments because they would harden, and make the cap stick to the hair. it cant be used for hardcore protein treatments, but it is great for moisturizing DCs. the cap helps to keep the moisture concentrated on your hair. try putting conditioner on your hair without a cap, you'll realize that the product will harden in your hair as it dries.

why do some people consider henna a protein and others do not??

Yes, scritch your scalp with an oil, mix henna with hot distilled water only, allow the color to release for a few hours, apply to hair for about 2-3 hours, wash out with a cheapie conditioner and DC for about another 2-3 hours with a moisturizing DC.

Because henna is a tannin that acts like protein but it does not reconstruct or build the hair 'scuticle, it simply coats it as a strengthener does.

I believe you have to have amazing growth or length demonstrated during your time as a member. You can PM Beverly and she will tell you or another member can chime in.

Thank you! But now what does scritch mean??
Massage it with the tips of your fingers to stimulate the hair's follicles. Some people use their nails but very very gently.

ive made a thread about the following question but i didnt really find what i was looking for.... soooo... here it goes again
first: does anyone know where i can find "damaged" hair and "underprocessed" hair comparison pics? i really am unsure how the two differ and would love to know through pictures if possible
second: could someone clearly tell me what the differences are and how i could personally identify it.

I don't know if this has been asked, but why do some people respond with just "......................."? What is that supposed to mean?

i figured this didn't warrant it's own post, so i thought i'd post it in this thread! is it possible to tell my hair type from this picture? i previously thought i had 3C hair, but i think that may have been because i had heat damage.
Usually when someone decides to delete a previous post they go back and type "........." or "double post". Since you can't just delete a post completely on LHCF, the next best thing is to write over it. Also posts have a character limit so thats why there are so many periods.

What causes hair to break when you haven't gotten a relaxer for long periods of time?

The weak point between the relaxed hair and the natural hair called the demarcation line. Relaxers chemical treatments that strip the hair of some of it's keratin (cuticle layers) thereby weakening it and the natural hair is thicker and stronger, so it naturally has a weak point as I have stated above.
When allowed to grow out too long without much supporting protein treatments to keep it strong, it will break at that weak point. Some people can go longer without a relaxer than others. Fine haired ladies have to be especially careful since they don't have that much keratin layers to begin with. HTH!

I believe this has something to do with winning games played in the chat room but I am not entirely certain. Maybe someone else will chime in if I'm wrong.
