I want to say Thank you to all the wonderful LHCF Ladies. Thanks to you and your advise.. I can now take care of my and my daughters hair. We are retaining lenght and it's healthy
!!!
I started my healthy hair journey 18 months ago. when after I took the braids out of my daughter hair (age 8).. Her hair "melted away" in my hands as I was washing it. Her hair was already damaged and broken by relaxers, so I tried braids to get it " growing" I made the problem worse. Her hair was barely ear lenght and she was embarred by the itty bitty ponytails, I would comb her into... So in search of a better way.. I looked on the internet and found you Ladies
.. I lurked for a few months trying diffrent things and when I started noticeing a diffrents in her hair I became a member in Jan 2009...
We began her transitin into natural hair Dec 08 and trimmed away the relaxer each month..I thought a BC would be to harsh for a little girl, so we trimmed little by little
I am embarrassed to tell you that I knew very little on taking care of hair and what I did know was totally wrong
..
I started to DC her hair twice weeklyKeeping her cornrows in no long longer than 2 weeks. and being very careful on how tight anyone braided her hair. I actually stopped going to a braider because she thought the tighter the better. I learned about protien and naturals oils
.. I rarely use a comb now and when I do it a wide tooth one when I am conditioning. I started noticing what her hair response too. I make sure she moisture her hair everyday with Scurl. I add Infusion and Suave into the mix.....We are learning so much.. People have notice a diffrent in our hair and have started asking for advice...Which when I tell them what I am doing: they dismiss it and tell me What I am doing wrong...
Look at her hair folks
I must be doing SOMETHING Right!!!
Thank you Thank you.... This morning was the first time she has worn her out in over a year. I had to pack her fro down it was tooo BIG for school... She loved it!!!..
I will be posting pics of my transition soon
HUGGS TO YOU LADIES
