Are the ladies in this thread using seamless combs? Have you noticed a difference?
I'm going to start washing my hair in twists. I'll see if it does anything.
Great thread!!
twists may need to be upgraded to braids, sometimes they can unravel and you end up washing on loose hair anyhow
KiWiStyle I wish I had discovered that buns were not my friend earlier...Year one my hair wasn't long enough to bun and I got great retention and hardly any splits. Year two I felt all cool because I could finally bun and did so a lot and had to trim due to splits often. Now in year 3 I'm back to updo's mainly because DH said that he wasn't a fan of buns (neither was I but did it for the so called health of my hair), and I'm noticing that I hardly have any splits.

No one has mentioned whether they have tried henna or cassia. I used to use henna long ago. I had a perm then one or two times when I used to hot comb. So far never on my virgin hair. Loved the colors, hated the mess. Really tempted for the strengthening effect its suppose to give. I wonder if it could help reduce the spider web effect of my wispy hair.

Wow! Vintagecoilylocks--that is some impressive hairNo one has mentioned whether they have tried henna or cassia. I used to use henna long ago.

LOL Bublin. I'm no expert--the ladies in the ayurvedic and tea rinse thread are though.
Nettle is fantastic for heavy shedding I use it almost everyday in a sprayer (instead of creamy leave-ins). Stopped my shedding with first rinse immediately in its tracks! Mint is also nice--I tried it with fresh leaves and loved the tingle. Didnt use it long term, so can't say its effects for my hair.
IDK anything about fennel.
I do recommend people try them one at a time before making mixes so you know what doesnt work rather quickly so as to not just throw in the towel on teas. Many do because they mixed 10 teas in their first try and blame them all when it's really only 1 or 2 they reacted to! Duh. I tea junkied for a while until I found a decent combination for *my hair*
