Hi Ladies!
This is my first post, but like so many other newbies, I have been checking out this site for some time and have already learned sooo much from all of you. Thank you for sharing your experiences, advice, and support. You have all helped in ways you'll never even know. :notworthy
When I first came to this site I had shoulder-length relaxed hair and was thinking of going natural, which led me here. As I heard transitioners tell their tales of their new textures and the "hand-in-hair" syndrome, I decided to make the journey and go natural. I'm so glad I experienced it and I learned so much about my hair and how to care for it (both relaxed and natural). I have type 4b hair with a splash of 4a here and there. A few months after my BC, I decided that natural wasn't for me.
Now on to the point of the post (finally!): Currently I have a Ferm Curl, and am loving it. I have to care for it differently from a relaxer, it's a new learning experience for me. I have found that my hair has a very low tolerance for extra protein, and it needs moisture like crazy (actually that last part isn't too different from the way my hair acts with a relaxer or natural too). Does anyone here have a Ferm Curl, or dry curl, or body perm, or whatever else they can be called? I need some tips from some seasoned pros! Even if you don't have this particular process I would appreciate any imput you may have.
Thank you and God Bless
