What to do if my sides are already faded?:lupe:
Grow it out won't notice overall...

When I started I had a caesar.... all over was same length. The locks on back of neck and ear area, will always hang lower, becuase its like 2-3 more inches to top of head. So after time, when they long won't be noticeable. But you want hair on the side to actually get a full thick twist, when you starting out. The higher the fade, the longer its gonna be for that area, thats why I say just get an edge around front, behind ears and nape of neck. Let all else grow.

healthy diet, lots of exercise, and drink lots of water (folks always forget this). Also, try not to play with it too much, that leads to mechanical breakage. I would advise not to take biotin, the moment you stop taking it, your hair starts to look dull and break

:ohhh:I didn't know this.

Yeah most folks don't know that. Biotin will make your hair grow fast like crazy (the strands are typically thin), but the moment you stop taking it. That hair will look like shyt and start breaking if you don't take extremely good care of it.
is that for internal biotin? or biotin shampoo? i love organix products with biotin. they maintain my hair well naturally and it preps my hair good when i straighten it.
i have some white hair popping :mjcry: and its mad thikk. guess its not the biotin
im gonna stop using biotin shampoo and see what happens. thanx for the info

keep your scalp moisturized!

limit your use of hair products to those without parabens and sulfates.

@Entrapta310 I don't know if the effects occur with biotin shampoo given that most biotin shampoos don't really have that much biotin to begin with. But I was talking about taking biotin in pill form.

About Biotin:
By now it’s common knowledge that popping biotin daily won’t guarantee long, lush hair. The truth is that biotin doesn’t make hair grow faster or longer. It can only promote longer hair by strengthening the hair follicle. Stronger hair allows each strand to reach the end of its growth cycle. Your genetics then decide just how far that cycle will take you.

Another sad fact: Unless you’re deficient in biotin (or B vitamins), the supplement won’t make much of a difference. “Most people get enough biotin from foods as well as the biotin our bodies produce,” says dermatologist and scalp expert Dr. Rebecca Kazin. So popping a pill (just like any vitamin supplement you don’t need) won’t do much…or anything at all.

But now there’s a new breed of biotin products, coming in the form of serums, shampoos and even hairspray. Topical biotin offers the same (not-so-reliable) results as ingested biotin, but it guarantees the added benefit of instant fullness. “Applying a hair product that is made with biotin will help strengthen the surface of the strands,” says Schwarzkopf Essence ULTÎME celebrity hairstylist Richard Collins. The formulas coat each strand and thereby increase the diameter of each existing hair.
