Need absolution for my hair transgressions

[Cherokee-n-Black]

So, you may be wondering why I'm posting so much all of a sudden. I'm in crisis. I've been tranistioning for a year, but honestly, since it started after a bad relaxer experience, I have not been a conscientious transitioner. I was just fed up with scissor happy stylists and missing my old stylist (who was rendered incapable of styling hair due to to a stroke) and refused to get my hair done anymore.

I also had a baby, and already had a two year old. Who has time to deep condition??? But what I did was put my hair up in a bun and leave it there for days at a time. No conditioning, no moisturizing, and washing was kind of, you know, whenever I get a chance. I would rollerset, but after that, basically do nothing. My hair grew, but the ends just fizzled. The elastic damage is quite evident. I finally cut my MBL to APL recently and am doing the braidouts for the summer.

I now have enough NG to see what my natural hair is doing...and I am clueless. I swear I've tried at lest 5 product lines in the last 3 weeks, and I'm not loving anything I'm seeing. My natural hair is dry--like DRY DRY. Like moisture-resistant.

I want to BC, but i'm scared!!! What us gone do???

LOL @ moisture resistant.

I cant say much since i didn't transition. i just went out one day, bought two pairs of scissors (don't ask why) and went at it I'll suggest maybe baggying if you're busy and cant DC? some ladies have also successfully used half wigs to PS until they're comfortable with cutting off the relaxed ends

HTH

you can try oil rinses or over night dc's. What products are you using now?
