I saw your picture trail and I have to tell you-- i am SOOO jealous. your hair is like exactly what I want. I was wondering what you do to your hair to get it that beautiful. what products do you use? any vitamins? and youalso said your dyed your hair black with bigen-- where did you find it? You're an inspiration.

oh my goood, i am so embarrassed right now /images/graemlins/blush.gif(and where did all the smilies go /images/graemlins/mad.gif). my face really turned red when i just read that but thank you soo much.
first i have to say that i think it's important to drink a lot of water (drinking some right now). i really want to drink two liters every day but i don't make it every day.
i tried to take biotin and flaxseed oil before but my skin started breaking out so i stopped. my stomach is sensitive (if you know what i mean) so i don't take no multivitamin, although i would love to.
i try to eat lots of fruit and i also drink lots of milk, yoghurtdrinks, and eat lots of joghurt.
now for my hair care, i do a hot oil treatment once a week. i wash my hair every four days. i wet my hair and (i just started doing this, but it works) put conditioner on the length of my hair. then i wash my scalp and maybe 2-4 inches of hair with creme of nature (or herbal essences, infusium, pantene), then i rinse and put a deep conditioner in my hair (right now dark&lovely ultra cholesterol). i leave that in as long as possible (if i stay at the house i leave it in all day or half a day, depending on how much time i have). after that i rinse and wrap my hair in a towel and leave it in there for maybe 30 or 45 minutes. as long as i can so most of the water is in the towel. then i apply a serum so i can comb my hair real easy. and then i just let it air dry in two braids or a bun or something like that. for special occasions i blowdry my hair with a big round brush and pink oil moisturizing lotion (i've tried other stuff, but this is still the best for me). i always thought that less is more, and although i think that i am a undercover product junkie i try hard to fight it and stick with what works for me.
if you have any more questions just ask, and thanks again, believe me a post like yours is really a motivation cause there are days when my hair is just THERE. and i get soo tired of it.
about the color, i called my stylist and told her that i wanted my hair dyed black and she told me that she had that natural asian powder and my hair turned out great. this color does wash out after about 2 months but i know that i will get it done again. my hair was very soft and shiny and very healthy looking. i can only recommend it to everybody, and especially to everybody who has damaged/relaxed/permed hair. here is a link for you

yes im new. I was a lurker for a long while but then I decided to become a member. well so far i haven't really started a regimen, I'm a planner and a perfectionist so Im still trying to find what seems like the best regimen for me-- its really hard because i am a college student and I work so its hard for me to have time to put a lot o effort into my hair, but I would really like longer hair. Right now its about an inch past my shoulders but I want it as long as yours. The other problem I am having is thickness-- my natural hair is so thick but when I relax it I lose soo much volume, but I love how straight my hair gets. But You definitely inspired me. Thanks for taking the time to explain what you do for me! Good luck!

Nay If you click on the More>>> tab near the smilies you will see them. They were slowing my comp down and a few other people were having problems with them so they are "archived" away but you can still get access to them.
