Hi. I am new to the forum. I wasn't sure if there was a thread for newbies, so I'll start here. I came to the site on the advice of a friend. I'm a 4a hair type, and my hair stretched is at my shoulders in the back and sides, and the chin in the front. I came on the site for advice to reach my goal of armpit length and to see what else is to be seen.
I am still working on my hair regimen. Let me know if this is OK.
Shampoo-once every week because I work out so much-Creme of Nature Detangling Conditioning Shampoo (green label)
Condition-I co-wash about every day-I use JASON Apricot Conditioner, although I hear cheap conditioner works just as well. Can any naturals clarify if this works. Any suggestions on cheap conditioners? Is Tresseme a good cheap conditioner? They sell it by the bucket at Target for cheap...
Deep Conditioner-I could use some advice, right now I am trying to find a good one that I can use weekly. Any suggestions (preferrably cheap) would be really great...
At night-I braid it up into about 6 plaits and I use SheaMoisture leave in and then seal it with some Qhemet Olive Balm.
Wash and go-I use Qhemet Olive and Honey Balm topped with some Honeybrush Tea Gel and out the door I go. This is my fall, winter stuff. In the summer, well this summer, I started using Qhemet Burdock Root Cream. I think I will keep it for spring and summer
I am horrible at making fake ponytails. I wear twists on occasion but if it will get me to my hair goals, I am willing to do it more frequently.

Thanks for reading. Look forward to posting more...
I would like to start a Fotki. I have seen so many great ones. I just need to hammer things down a bit more before I go completely public.

I dont have the same hair type, but I am sure more 4a will chime in. Your regimen looks good though. I know you will enjoy it here, post away. 



Motions Moisture Plus is an excellent deep conditioner for an inexpensive price. You can "doctor it up," and it will even be better. :superbanana:
It's lovely!!
