...so here are some shots of my hair in its current state. Curly and straight...still trying to figure out my hair type though. 3B maybe?
Eta: What length would my hair be considered?
Thanks ladies

What I use
Deep conditioner: Silicon Mix (once/twice a week, depending on how dry my ends are looking or if I need extra slip)
Regular conditioner: Tressume Flawless curls conditioner (I use this more so as a leave-in; I don't really get build up because I wash my hair weekly)
Shampoo: I'm using Aussie Moist right now and really like it. The Creme of Nature shampoo in the orange bottle is good as well.
Oils: I swear by my Vatika coconut oil and Pure Shea Cocoa Mango Hair Oil (black-owned company, too!!)
Other: Beautiful Textures Curl Control pudding (to alleviate frizz) and Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie (if I need additional conditioning after applying my leave-in).
Styling tools: Wide-tooth shower comb by Conair that I bought from Target. I swear by my Denman brush to untangle my curls, as well. I comb/brush on wet hair only! On dry hair, I just finger comb and carefully pull tangles apart, careful not to snag my ends.
What I do
I rarely use heat because I play soccer/do the gym really often. I may straighten my hair a few times a year. I just let the Dominicans straighten my hair (I go in with my hair already shampooed, with my Silicon Mix conditioner already in so they can just rinse). I also maintain a clean diet. And when I stopped stressing over growth, it seriously grew a lot! I am very low-maintenance. And I only cut my ends annually.
