Oh my goodness, thank you @AgeinATL for letting us know. I didn't see that thread originally.

You're welcome! I figured that some people on this side might not have known.

Same. I don't know if my hair grows fast or they're slipping.

Same. I don't know if my hair grows fast or they're slipping.

I think for me its both, I've been wearing them pulled back and I have been diligently taking my Manetabolism and biotin.

Trying to itch my scalp under my banana clip with a pen, my colleague sees me struggling and says, "is that coz of the braids?" I look at her and say, "I don't have any braids". She looks at me, eyes wide "So that's all your hair? Wow it's really grown."
Me:.

Thinking about taking out my braids this weekend. They are only 5 weeks odl and still look really good. I just miss my hair. I know I should keep them in longer because they cost a grip. decisions, decisions.

Hey ladies,

Just because I know that some of you don't go to non-hair related sections of the board...

Our sister @pre_medicalrulz just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl but tragically lost her husband. The ladies have posted a thread for those who may want to help:

https://longhaircareforum.com/threa...t-for-your-our-sister-pre_medicalrulz.794957/

You don't have to donate, but she definitely could use all the prayers and positive words of encouragement that we can give. Thanks ladies!

Thank you for letting us know. May God bring peace and strength to her and her family.

Glycerine moisturizes my hair better than basically anything. I mixed glycerine and aloe vera juice and sprayed my hair and braids. I will keep experimenting to find the perfect blend. I think anything I use needs to contain some glycerine in order to work for me. This is why I love the shea moisture products because they are all high in glycerine and other thick products my hair likes. The eden bodyworks souffle thing makes me hair kinda soft but hard. I think it has decent hold abilties.

Oh by the way, this happened.

@whosthatcurl love your undercut, thinking of getting one myself.

 

[Dee_33]

Switched from lye to no-lye my last 2 relaxers...so far so good. ORS no-lye just might be my new fave. No breakage, no thinning, and no burns.

Thanks love

When I use a product and it performs exceptionally well, I have to resist the urge to purchase 4 or so more bottles/jars of the stuff.

[ElevatedEnergy]

Welp. New hair goal.

@toaster So are we going for the boom boom length ponytail? Gone head Sis! You probably gone be there next month!

I need a new hair goal too. Only thing I have at the moment is growing out my layers. BORING!

OGX Coconut Milk Shampoo and Conditioner has become my new babyyyyy!!
I picked up the small bottle as a temporary use because my regular Organics Nutrient Rich Coconut Oil Poo & Con had ran out on me, not to mention, it is pretty hard to find and it's $20 for each bottle....
Anywho, OGX Coconut Milk Poo & Con is pretty much my new staple! I love love love it!

Yes ma'am! I trimmed last month but I have a few weddings I'll be in over the next year and well... I want my hair to swang. And then for the receptions I want a snatched pony.

Are you still wearing your weave? You need something to be excited about! What about those fab highlights you used to have?

 

[Dee_33]

I gotta find a good cone-free dc...off to the dc threads I go

@toaster Yes Sis I'm still in the weave and quite enjoying not having to deal with my hair at the moment. I'm over the highlights...I have some honey blonde clip in's that I can use if I'm ever feeling jazzy LOL

Honestly I'm just in cruise control with my hair. No real excitement for new styles, new products, new nuthin....just bored and tired of talking about it. I keep coming in here (the hair side) trying to get that old thing back but nah. Health and fitness is what excites me these days so I gotta stop trying to force the hair stuff. What you been up to?! PM me! We should chat until roller setting season comes back around in the fall! Don't wanna take over this thread LOL

I'mma need folks to get "WOKE" and stat! Lady has coarse hair, 2c'ish with a slight wave and says it gets frizzy and looks dirty. DIRTY??? SMH. Her kid has 3b'ish hair. Now, how is she supposed to feel when you call yours dirty-looking?

 

[Dee_33]

Trying tgin's honey hair mask, fingers crossed that it delivers on its promises.
