Hi! I\'m the new girl!
Hello everyone, I am new here and I can't wait to get started on the road to healthy hair. I know there are a lot of smart women on this board who are willing to help me. I have been observing for a while now. I know who you are!
I have determined that my hair is 4a. However, it is also pretty thin. Other than that, it is in pretty good condition. It is color treated with highlights but I haven't noticed any extra breakage due to that. About two months ago, for some strange reason, I decided to have a sewn in weave put in my hair. I thought, this will give my hair a break from heat styling and other damage. I seemed to have forgotten that my hair was thin and couldn't really stand the tension of not only braids but the extra weight of the weave.
My snapped to my senses two weeks into having it in and in a panic, took it out myself.
Yeah, I know. Anyway, I didn't lose hair taking it out. I had already lost hair by leaving it in. I lost a good amount to my already thin hair and was left with a pretty uneven coif. Which brings me here. Whew! I recently started to take a daily multivitamin and purchased Wild Growth Oil on a whim. The smell is a bit strong to say the least but it is a very good moisturizer on my hair. I am open to any help and suggestions. I will take suggestions on multivitamins, products, haircare, you name it. I'm desperate. Please, someone help me! Oh, I forgot to mention that currently my hair is shorter in the sides but the back reaches to the middle of my neck. It is very thin however. I am not opposed to growing out my relaxer but I am concerned with breakage and controlling the tight curls that I tend to have. I thank you in advance for all your help. I'm counting on you guys!
