Hello ladies,
I am soooo happy to finally join the site! Like many others, I've been lurking for awhile and decided I had too many things I wanted to ask others, and responses to make and was just darn happy to be here that I couldn't hold out any longer. Like many of you, I refuse to go to a hair salon anymore. Actually, I haven't been to one in over a year or two and before that, about 7 years. The last stylist I had did an amazing color job, well... as far as the color goes.. but overprocessed my shoulder length hair seriously (oh, BTW, she went to go get something to eat whilst the developer sat in my hair and told one of her techies to wash it out... *sighs* yep... and I didnt say anything although I knew something was going wrong.. call it intuition). So, my hair fell out. It crumbled. I had basically see through hair on the sides and a mohawk in the middle! I looked like I had a mullet!
yes, i can laugh about it now. So, i'm on stylist strike. I've been taking care of my own hair since then. A complicated head of hair I have, 4 a/b, coarse, thick to medium, curly as all get out but extremely dry! It tends to grow long but then thins out very bad and I usually end up cutting it short again, aka halle B. The frustration made me give up and I just decided to wear my hair natural and short, about 3" right now. I think I look amazing with short hair, I get wonderful compliments, but the same with long hair. so, I feel no rush or pressure to reach my goals and therefore, hopefully will be patient!
I've had the blessing of finding LHCF by mistake one day and then realized it was fate! I'm glad to be here and I cant say enough about what i've learned already from the newcomer's guide and moisture and protein balance! My hair has changed dramatically and I feel like I can grow it out healthily, retain my thickness and length and not have to do a BC everytime it gets shoulder length. Already I am getting less than 10 hairs a day as far as any type of shedding whereas before I got over 50 to 100.. I was just going bald y'all. Which is sad because I really do have a great head of hair when things are workin right. I didnt realize the great pay off I would get from this! I am blessed to be here and hope to reach bra strap length at some point in the future! I trust you ladies more than any stylist I've ever had about your input and the decisions you make for yourself, and becuase I bear witness to the RESULTS and see them everyday and am WOWED!
Blessings to all and HHG!
