Hi Ladies, I am Cuban and immigrated to Canada in April, but I found this awesome site while still in Cuba, I used to lurk everyday. You ladies are all so great, naturals, relaxed, you have made me see that long black beautiful healthy hair is possible. I have 4a/b hair and since I arrived in Canada I have used ORS relaxer. I am trying to follow some of the great advice here:baggie method,airdrying,cowashes..
In Cuba , due to the economical situation,most people use a homemade relaxer concoction made of course with lye,eggs,honey,etc. Box relaxers are making their way into the market but are insanely expensive on a 15 dollars a month salary,and naturals are not common(my sister is one,she has beautiful hair, but sometimes people even yell at her on the street
). So, I am trying to restore my hair to a healthy condition.
Thanks everyone for being such an inspiration.

. In fact, my mom relaxes her hair but she has had the same stylist for years, her hair is incredibly healthy,must be genetics, people are always touching her hair(yes, I know) because is silver/gray, she's only 56 and she uses these silver enhancing shampoos and conditioners, I have lots of grey hairs but after I color they are visible again after a week.
