What was the best tip or product you ever got from LHCF?

[Jewell]

1) Protective styles/protecting ends=less trimming.
2) Daily CO washes can really be great for the hair (it really increases my growth rate).
3) Pre-shampoo oil treatments. They really keep my hair from being stripped.
4) Supplements: Alfalfa, Super B-Complex, GNC Ultra Nourishair, Flaxseed Oil
5) Products: S-Curl No Drip, Nexxus Headress, EVOO, Vatika and Amla Oil.

Baggie method - (Thanks to whoever was the originator of that idea)

Stretching touch-up - (No more overlapping)

Putting my hair in a ponytail in the shower - (Ingenious. Thanks to the originator of that idea)

Daily washing & conditioning/rinsing - (working like a charm and only one or two lost strands after comb through)

I have learned so many things, the best tips that helped my hair was CW every other night, moisturize with S-Curl, vitamins GNC nourishair, and heavy protein{Aphogee) for my hair every 6 weeks, carrot juice and scalp massages. Thanks a million to everyone on this board!

UBH moisturizer

Using protein conditioners more
CO washes
Keeping my hair in the bun. This challenge is really helping my hair grow.

NatureMade Super B complex was another good recommendation. Great replacement for what I was taking. I was taking the Naturemade B 100 vitamins and they were so big that I would gag. So I would never take them consistently.
