Ive been natural my entire life, but always had my hair pressed/flat ironed every 2 weeks. About 5 years ago i decided not to anymore and found this site. To say the least it was very overwhelming, so many tips, ideas products etc. As time went on, i settled into a nice reggie and things went smoothly, Then i got tired of waiting for my products in the mail, 3 sometimes 4 weeks, product formulas changing, etc. Last year i got back into braids and weaves, after having either or i finally removed about 2 months ago and am at a total lost as what to do with my hair. Its different lengths, APL on the sides and approaching BSL in the back. Id love to get more into protective styles but short of a bun thats it. I cant cornrow, or flat twist. I two strand twist at night but never know what ill wake up with in the am... my hair doesnt seem to hold them. Right now i wash and condition with organix macadamia oil line. I was using a daily moisture spritz of water and aloe vera juice and my hair started shedding like mad. Now i used water/conditioner mixture and the shedding is slowing down. Ive tried eco styler gel/shea moisture curling smoothie which works well when my hair is styled wet but just seems so dry the next day. If anyone could offer assistance i would greatly appreciate it, id hate to go back to constant weaves/braids or worse yet cut it all off and be in worse shape. I also hate the triangle look due to bangs i had cut in Feb.
thank you
