I'm taking control of my hair

I have been a lurker for a long time. Now I'm upset and tired enough to take control of my own hair care. I'm tired of spending many hours waiting in a salon, getting my hair done on someone else's schedule, and still not being satiltsfied with my results. I know the lingo, read the threads, and even stay up late at nite online when my butt should be sleep. Now all I need is some friends. So, please say hi :weird:
 
Hi :wave: Welcome out of lurkmode. You made a very wise decision. No one can love and care for you hair the way you can. Happy hair growing!
 
Hey and welcome!!

I know the feeling as i was there nearly a year ago. You will do fine.
 
Welllllcome to the dark side!! Muahahahahaa!! :lol: I'm just kidding :)

:welcome: to the board and congrats on your hair decision! :D

Hey!!! My hair was FRIZZY out the ying yang too!! lol. I thought that was just the way my hair was supposed to be :-( Until I was introduced to oil rinses a short while ago.

I use Coconut Oil (This is the only oil that I heat, since it's solid at first, but i think the warming it helps), JBCO[just a dab], Avocado Oil, Olive Oil and sometimes I use the Ojon Oil as well, and this really helps. But it's so expensive so I don't use it for EVERY oil rinse or deep conditioning.

This is all I do. I just rinse the oil out. I intended on washing my hair afterwards and conditioning, but when I did it the first time. I saw such a big improvement and my hair was so MOISTURIZED I didn't want to add anything else and mess it up. This is truly the first time I've ever seen my hair in a healthy state , so forgive me but i'm ecstatic. My ends and everything have thickened and aren't dry and brittle anymore. :lick: Oils are the truth!

Well hello there :grin:

I have questions ( If you don't mind me asking)

Are you relaxed/texlaxed/Natural?

Are you trying to reach a certain length besides achieving healthy hair?

So do you wash and condition your hair first, and then do the oil rinse?

Welcome aboard, OP. I am glad that you are taking control of your hair. About your addiction, it will only get worse.
