Re: New Member Needs Help!!- Natural Hair knotting
You may need to change your regimen a little and incorporate a protein conditioner into it. Try something like Aubrey's Organic's protein conditioner (I think it's called GBP) or Back to Basics Vanilla Plum (it is a fortifying conditioner with vanilla, plum, and natural proteins). Vanilla extracts are supposed to provide natural emollients, prevent breakage and split ends, and relieve styling stress. Plum has amino acids, and is suppose to improve strength, and the natural proteins {hydrolized wheat, soy, and corn proteins) are suppose to help strengthen, increase elasticity, and help retain protective moisture. This conditioner has 'cones in it though, so if your hair does not react well to 'cones try the Aubrey's Organics conditioner.
Just make sure to follow up with a good moisturizing conditioner.
