I Can\'t Stop Groping My New Growth!!

Just wanted to let you ladies know, that I can't stop touching the new growth. It feels soooooooooooo nice and curly. I never thought my 4a/b texture would feel this good. This is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone else find themselves with there fingers inside the roots for half of the day?

, It's like I have some kind of disease. I am constantly doing this and no matter how hard I try to stop I can't.

. My hair is really growing now, and I can't stop loving it.

, but I'm afraid that all this groping might not be good for my hair.

Me too. I've decided to try massages to get in a little "constructive groping"

!!

Re: I Can\'t Stop Groping My New Growth!!

well as long as we grope gently and with clean hands, i cant see how we could be doing our hair any harm!

When I was relaxed and contemplating going natural, it was my new growth that made me concider not relaxing anymore. I do have to add, however that back then, my new growth was very deceptive. It was growing and I too couldn't stop playing in it. I was so sure that after I did the big chop that I'd have all of these soft waves, but it wasn't true

I guess when all of the relaxed hair wasn't on top, I could really feel my true texture and it was more like dense, spongy, cotton. If I don't moisturize, it turns into a brillo bush lol. When I wear a puff/fro pushed back with a headscarf, I have to spray water on my hair about 3 or more times a day just so it won't dry out

now I'm contemplating braids or something. We'll see.

btw, I'm a 4a at the nape and crown and a 4b around the front and sides

Yes....I used to grope also, this is why I decided to go natural!

My new growth and hair is soft and I have a problem also keeping my hands out of my hair.

I definately have groping issues. I'm surprised my hair hasn't filed a harassment complaint against me.

Yes, I've had this problem consistently since I began transitioning. I don't see it going away anytime soon. I do try to limit it so that I am not harming my hair though.

It's funny that this is the first post I saw when I logged on, because I was just sitting here fingering my new growth.

Didn't you feel like the LCHF was watching you through the computer as if you got busted? LOL.

Re: I Can\'t Stop Groping My New Growth!!

As I mentioned once, I like to think the "energy" from my hands playing in my newgrowth help stimulate my roots!

guilty as charged!

Especially the little silky coily springs right in the top of my head. Great fun to play with.

I have been guilty of this for years.

Re: I Can\'t Stop Groping My New Growth!!

i have been doing it since the bc last year in june and i love the way my curls feel- that's why i leave it loose most of the time, so i can play in it.

Yes, i too suffer from "hand-in-hair-disease" and its really bad when my newgrowth gets about 1/4 of an inch

Re: I Can\'t Stop Groping My New Growth!!

Me too! I thought I was the only one. The waviness of it is such a shock, since usually it would be springy/coily. I can't wait for my retouch next week!
