LHCF Hair Poll 2011

[My Friend]

We have new members, lurking members, and current members who like change, so I thought it would be a good idea to have this poll Jan of each year.

Vote and share a story or two.

 

[onemoretry]

I don't see the poll.

I'm newly natural but none of your options really fit me so I didn't vote. I don't have enough hair to heat train, LOL!

 

[SmileyNY]

I'm new to the forum. After years of hiding my unmanageable hair under weaves, I finally decided to texlax this past December. I'm loving the results. Now I just need to take extra special care of my hair to ensure growth. I plan to stretch 12 weeks between touch-ups (that should be fun lol)

Do you have a relaxer? Did you put a relaxer in for a short time and then neutralized? Have you used a flat iron or curling iron so often that your hair remains straight when water touches it? If you answered no to all those questions, than you will find your answer.

 

[MsWowFactor]

I flat iron once every few months and I usually rollerset or bantu knot outs in between. Since I mostly roller set and dont get a lot of shrinkage is that
Natural rarely use heat/shrikage or Natural heat tranined?
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I wasnt sure since I rarely use direct heat.

LMAO!

I know what the other options mean. I just meant that I'm natural but I don't plan to be heat trained and I won't be using heat any time soon.

Love your bun

 

[Fhrizzball]

I know there are some who are loc'd as well but that can be consider more of a style too though. Anyways I called it quits on heat because I get bored with my hair by the 3rd day at the latest.

 

[dr.j]

There's not an option for transitioners either

 

[SmilingElephant]

ummmmmmm.......im a die hard transitioner

 

[Lynnerie]

I'm natural and straighten once every 2 months.

 

[AlliCat]

Relaxed here

 

[virtuenow]

Umm...there's no option for just a regular natural. I straighten (blowdry) often, but unfortunately I'm not heat trained; my hair shrinks to full capacity when wet. So I can't choose heat trained. I also rarely let my hair shrink to the max. So I can't choose rarely use heat-shrinkage. Plus that option is confusing. Some other options are missiong as others have pointed out. Perhaps you can do a new poll with all the options that were used in the previous census'!

 

[KurlyNinja]

I'm transitioning... What am I suppose to say? both?

 

[CrissieD]

I chose natural. I don't use heat often, but I rarely allow my hair to shrink up.

 

[TLC1020]

Relaxed... Short and sexy (again)... bc'd 3/10

Long term goal is healthy, thick mbl.... Right now wearing braids and stretching relaxer, currently 20 weeks post and going 28-30weeks..

 

[Whimsy]

Natural.
Use heat rarely.
Past WL and almost HL
Long term goal is a WL unstretched wash n go.
Stretched long term goal is.... i dunno...however long it has to be to shrink up to WL
(currently I shrink up to APL)

 

[rririla]

I voted Natural, although I use heat ,more often than I would like to (trying to change that in 2011)*....my hair still isn't "heat trained", it reverts right back when I wash it.

 

[LunadeMiel]

Natural, not heat trained.

I will celebrate my 3 years nappiversary on 2/8/2010

 

[Wildchild453]
