@TeeSGee I buy them from local health shops. Lets see there is one at 2076 lawrence ave "Enza's Herbal Health" and another in whitby that I go to. I tend to buy the looose leaf but do have some bags. I warn you buying tea's get's pretty addictive
@Nix08 Thank u.. I love to drink tea, so i'm excited to check it out.
ETA: Is the store on Lawrence in Scarb or T.O?

lamaria211 What made you relax your natural hair? Just curious. Also, the products I used while natural actually worked better on my hair once I relaxed/texlaxed!

I telaxed because even though my hair was healthy apl I couldn't do anything with it I'm like 4c absolutely no curl pattern just crazy coils that love to tangle. I had been wearing wigs for the last 2 years and I wanted to be able to wear my hair out without looking homeless. I kept it deep conditioned and well moisturized but I could barely make a decent bun due to 90% shrinkage here is a before pic

i think i will give myself a touch up today. my hair is starting to get tangled when i wash it. i need to get a new flat iron too. i want to get the Sedu, but i will need something today. my flat iron likes to snag my hair and it isn't smooth enough for me anymore.

I'm 11 weeks 1 day post and although my hair is very moisturizers and feels great, my edges are driving me crazy. This is only my second stretch and I swear they have never been this bad before. I don't know what to do.

I am 5 months post relaxer. Longest I've ever been. Took down my weave yesterday and gv my hair some extra care. I blow dried it this morning and looking forward to weaving it up again today. I really enjoy the break my hair gets from doing this. I will likely texlax the next time I take the weave down which will be a little over 7 months post.

lamaria211 you can use henna immediately after you relax. Just make sure you use 100% BAQ henna. What brand are you planning to use?

Sleeping in Wen for the first time since telaxed I made 4 knots so I hope not to wake with tangles

You should be fine. Ive never used Wen MC but I use Wen Fig as a deep conditioner and a leave-in and my hair is so soft! I never get tangles and may shed 4 hairs.

i really want to just flat iron my hair on wash days. i am too lazy for anything else right now. i don't think it should be a problem. as long as i don't abuse my hair with the heat, i should be fine.

Thinking I should start cowashing every other day now that I'm 9 weeks post. I think that's the only way I'm going to make it through this stretch
