Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

Remember,

If you are treating your hair with TLC by using great products, gentle when combing, protecting and moisturizing, and not using heat(or using it to the minimal) then your hair has no choice but to "perform" well for you. It has no choice but to be healthy and grow for you.

Still you should remember that perhaps when you started this hair care regimen and such--your hair may have still been getting over "issues." (Guess y'all didn't know that hair could have baggage too

) Maybe there was over-processing, heat damage, whatever...so it takes time.

Nessa, I don't think braids with extensions are for everyone. I had crochet braids a while back and I felt like my hair was really thin and weak when I took them out. This wasn't what I had expected. I thought my hair was "resting" while I had it in crochets(which was only for a month) But truthfully, IMO--I think crochets and micros wreak havoc on the hair. Again, that's just my opinion so if one of you ladies is reading this and have had success with either of those braiding methods then more power to ya!

The thing that got me back on track(of all things) was a good cholesterol treatment for about an hour.

Anyway, be good to your hair and it will be good to you. I truly believe that.

Supergirl!
Can u recommend a good cholesterol treatment.

 

[Supergirl]

Re: Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

NYCITY, at the time that I'm referring to, it was Queen Helene's Cholesterol. Now that I'm alittle more hair product savvy, I've noticed that the QH Cholesterol actually has Sodium Laurel Sulfate in it--but like I said, it did the trick for me that day! But in case that SLS worries you, I think the LeKair Cholesterol is pretty potent too.

Supergirl,

You made a good point. Our hair needs extra TLC especially with the damage from bad habits. I use to be real impatient and constantly asking people if my hair has grown. I now have people complement my hair and growth without me prodding them.

Re: Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

Supergirl, that was a really nice encouraging post. Thanks for those of us who needed that! We should all follow your example because your hair is the bomb!!

BTW, what are crochet braids? Are they the same as box braids?

Re: Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

Thanks Supergirl. This was great.

Re: Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

Kit Kat,

Crochet braids are when your hair is corn rowed to your head and fake hair that is already braided into really thin & pretty braids (straight, curly, or wavy pattern) are actually attached to your own hair with a crochet needle. Just that process alone of going in and out of your cornrows with a crochet needle is BAD.

Re: Don\'t Get Discouraged Nessa or Others

Supergirl, that was such a nice thing to say, and a way for us to get good encouragement for worrying about our hair. Like I posted the other day, your hair needs moisture, protective styles, deep conditioning and TLC. These are the elements that will get your hair growing beautiful, like a plant. Your hair will be a work of art if you take really good care of it, and not get damaged from overprocessing, neglect, and excessive heat. You'll be suprised when people complement your hair and how to get it that way.

Remember, love your hair, NOT hate it. It'll improve with time. Toodles.
