These are all from within the past year since my BC in january2013. My avi is my most recent flat iron. My siggy was taken in December13. I do wear my hair out on the regular. I could use some long term PS to help with retention, but i'm having too much fun playing in it

I just love the shine and silkiness of your hair lady. I'm sure noone sees your scalp as they'll be blinded by the bling of your hair

Girl yes, i think we do. Now that my hair is a bit longer, it's easier for me to compare it to others.

Thank you for the love, ladies! We low density gals have to stick together. Believe me it's low density, but I have to set/style in a manner that brings volume

^^g.lo I still see some good definition. I can't use stuff with a lot of glycerin when I'm trying to get a good twist out. My hair immediately poofs too.
I can't wait to see what other styles, tips, and fun stuff we come up with. I will have to post a pic of my low density petite pony tail (the reason I don't do braids).

Thanks girl !!!! I'm trying to start loving it....it'll be a hard long road though lol. I think seeing so many pictures of beautifullll thick natural hair on here makes me feel inadequate. But I'm gonna rock my 10 strands of hair

How would I know if I have low density hair? Ive always gel like I didnt have enough strands, but my strands are medium to large in diameter if that makes sense. I have thin thick strands

Prettymetty you can tell by how your wide your pony tail is. If it is anything like mine, it's probably low density. I will post pics later since they're on my phone.

The density of your hair is simply how thin or thick it is. The number of hair follicles in a specific area of your hair, say a 1-inch area, determines your hair’s density.
The only way to truly determine density is to have someone literally examine a 1-inch square section of your scalp and count the number of hair follicles, or the number of hairs, in that 1-inch section. However, you can also do a simple hair density test with just two of your senses — vision and touch.
KINKY HAIR
Kinky hair is hair that is very tightly curled. When you pull it straight out from the scalp, it immediately springs back as tight as it was before.
WHAT'S YOUR HAIR TEXTURE?
Right now, you may have dense, porous hair, but that won't necessarily last! Find out why hair texture changes throughout your life.
Make sure your hair is completely dry. Wet hair can feel and look thinner than it actually is.
Be sure that your hair has not been picked out, combed, or styled in any way.
Look closely at your hair from all angles, and see if you can see your scalp through the hair strands. If you can, your hair has very low density.

Do yall think that because we have fewer strands we shed less. My theory is that those with lots of strands shed more to maintain the balance and we shed less for the same reason. I also think that I have a long growth cycle since im a slow grower/slow shedder
Kinda like the tortoise from the "tortoise and the hare story". If your hair grows faster and sheds faster that may not necessarily be a good thing. Im starting to accept and appreciate what my hair can do. Im gonna get to the finish line, but I know its gonna take a while
