Hi ladies, this is the first time I start a discussion on this board. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with a happy event. I had braids on for two months and took them off two days ago. I had some major build up on. I was planning on washing my hair yesterday but I fell asleep after putting my hot jojoba oil treatment on so I slept with it. Then I rinsed it this morning and washed my hair. After that, I did a cholesterol treatment and sat under a dryer for 40 mn. I thought I would detangle my hair at that point. My hair started to break like hell so I stopped immediately and rinsed it. Let me tell you something: never make the mistake I made. Detangle your hair before washing it!!!! Maybe everyone knew that but me. Anyway my hair looked like locks after that so I started crying thinking I would have to cut all my hair off. Luckily a friend of mine offered to detangle my hair. She saved me!! We've been working on it for 3 hours and we're still not done. We just took a 15 mn-break.We haven't done half my head yet. Can you believe it?? If anyone went through the same hell as I am now, please tell me how you handled it. I can't believe I put all this efforts in getting nice long hair and almost ruined it today. Also, I wanted to wait 2 weeks before getting a touch up. Well...not gonna happen. I'll be at the hairdresser'door first thing monday morning!!
