Hello all of my beautiful LHCF Ladies!!!
I recently subscribed after being a lurker for about 4 years!!!! Yes 4 long years I have followed this site going through all of the phases of every newcomer. Shock= To see so many AA women of all hair types with long gorgeous hair. And also seeing people like me that were just starting their hair journey in 2004. Obsession= Being on 24 hours a day soaking in all of the great common sense information that this site provides and learning new things that laid all the AA hair myths to rest. And even abandonment for a little while, but now i'm back. And I want to make myself known, finally.
I'll try to keep my story short, but let me give a little history lesson.
I have coarse, dry hair that is relaxed. When I started I cut my neck length hair to ear length and started over. Note: It's always been neck length. Before I got here I read Cathy Howse's Book and began my journey. And over 4 years my short broken hair turned into BSL/Mid Back healthy hair. (It's never been this long in my life). During my 4 years i've had a baby, whose now 16 months. And it's still growing. My goal is mid back, which i'm surprised i'm about a year away. Considering i'm 6' tall. Yeah, ladies i'm a tall one
. So you know what that means, it's gonna take me longer to get there. But proudly after 4 yrs i'm almost there.
I'm currently experiencing hair anorexia. I know it's long, but not long enough. People think it's a weave, people think i'm mixed, all the stereotypes happen to me. I want to share my experiences and I want to learn more. I have a very simple regimine. Protective styles mainly buns, co-washes, clarifying, and at time deep cons. However, my questions are what is the best deep con and what it the best moisturizer? Is it better to make my own with household products, or better to buy? I'll get set-up, but in the mean time.
