I think there is a misconception about coarse hair. Most people think coarse hair is strong and resilant and I disagree. I know fine hair can be very delicate but I think coarse hair is also very delicate as well. One time my friend was braiding my hair and she said my hair cut her That's how coarse it is.
Keeping my hair moisturized has been a struggle for me, whether I'm relaxed or natural. Even though I am relaxed now my strands are still wiry.
I have tried Kenra MC, which is supposed to be good for coarse hair but no matter what my hair always feels dry. I have never had a conditioner make my hair feel moisturized. I see so many women say how DC makes their hair so soft and I never get that. I am starting to feel like I might as well just use shampoo and call it a day I do moisturize twice a day and that helps somewhat but I know that DC is where your mainly where you should get your moisture from.
And forget cowashing that does absolutely nada for me.
We all know that black hair can grow long and healthy but I am afraid that because my hair is so coarse it is making harder for me to retain length because it's such a struggle to keep it soft.
I always hear about the fine haired ladies on the board but I never hear anything about coarse hair. So I wanna hear from the coarse haired ladies. What have been doing to keep your hair moist?
Any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated.
