I don't know what to do... First let me give you a background on my hair.
I am 6 months into my transition. Everything was going good until July when I got a weave. I hadnt had a weave in a couple of months almost a year so I thought it would be a nice break to have my hair braided up and weaved that way I could also straighten it as I wanted to.
After watching Ateyaa's video from her weave damage I got kinda scared but figured that wouldn't have happened to me because I had NEVER had that happened to me in the 8 straight years that I had worn weaves... (BTW that is how I greww my hair to almost BSL) WELL.... I had so many tangles I started crying midway thru. I couldn't believe that that had happened. My hair was pretty crappy after I had been doing so well. But then I figured that maybe that had happened because I had washed my braids underneath every week and that I probably didnt detangled as well as I could've. So since my hair didnt look good I figured I would get another weave and take care of it how I used to which meant doing nothing.
So I got a weave again 09/07/09 and took it down 10/12/09 and it is safe to say my hair is messed up. Detagling wasnt as bad as last time but my relaxed hair is super rough and not cooperating. I can't do decent braidout or anything. It just frustrates me becuase I thought I did everything right and my hair is super crazy looking.
Can anybody tell what I can do besides cutting it all off. I'm already cutting my hiar in about 2 weeks into a shoulder length bob at the end of this month. But I want to get my hair's moisture back on point. I cowashed yesterday and today becuase my hair is just feeling super duper dry.
HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Hair went from this.......
To this....
I Know it looks bad. I have 6 months of shirkange but it still looks bad.
