My natural hair sistas....

[Blackking]

Drink madd water, fish oil pills. Coconut oil or something similar over night....

even use bantu knots oiled up and covered because it will increase the number of styles for the next day w o having to use any heat cuz it will be curly.

Don't wash it alot, but when you do.. moisturizing conditioner.
If your hair is thick then use pure shea butter to lock moisture in.... but it takes like a week.

imma just do it like i do my daughters, bantu knots. and just let em stay knots until i need to go somewhere then take em down and let the spirals fall, but first imma need to grow more than 4 inches of hair. not sure if imma keep rocking braids til it grows out cuz i enjoy my thick nappy edges and errybody i know that wears braids for extended amounts of time aint got no edges. so fukk that. i have been seriously thinking going back to creamy crack tho. cuz i dont think my hair is ever gonna be long like it used to ever again. im thinking bout just keeping it cut short.ive seen alot of cute short haircuts but they all require a relaxer. its frustrating as hell tho. i just know i was tired of looking like florida evans.

Just maybe get some kaneakolan hair and do the twist..n so your edges dont get fukkes up...


But dont perm cuz you give up... do other stuff intl the meantime until you can do the knots.

I wash my hair once a week. I always deep condition, detangle and air dry my hair.

If I flat iron my hair it's not dry if I don't it gets dry as hell.

I use leave in conditioner during the week.

Each of the products that work are like $15+ a piece for each line of the system. And these aren't big containers either.

stop flat ironing. You're going to lose any length gains you may have. eventually you're going to have to chop it off cuz of damage.

Get yourself some Cantu Shea Butter($5), it works miracles, b.
My mom buys me La bella Placenta shampoo also fire. it's like $2.37. the best shampoo ever, curls start popping out of nowhere when its applied.
Natural hair management isn't hard when you eventually figure out what your hair likes and how it reacts.

Thanks.

I think I'm done with flat ironing my hair. The last time was about a month ago. People keep warning me so I'm going to listen.

Yeah.. light yellow and it usually doesn't come in a bottle like a moisturizer would. Sometimes its not a liquid... just hard butter.

As your hair grows... trim any edges as it grows because that helps... and try to never get stressed out because that hurts. Growing and taking care of natural hair involves eating so its basically a life style.

Sure the iron is better than a perm.... but really u dont wanna fukk with it at all and hardly wash because heat hurts. So thats why knots and other techniques come in handy the day before you wanna style

 

[Arishok]

I use this for my scalp

And this for my braid out/twist out

I only have to use the souffle once a week and the argan oil twice a week and my hair/scalp stays moisturized for the entire week.

I also wash my hair once a week with co-wash and once a month with shampoo and conditioner/deep condition.

What are some good natural hair sites to get ideas on styling hair other than YouTube?
What are some good communities?

Also my hair has become extremely dry no matter how much product I use.
There are some brands that I have discovered to work some what but are way too expensive to keep buying. In my opinion

Anyone know some natural things I can do to help?

I just bought coconut oil....
I should add that I'm transitioning and it's been a yr.

Is it to much to ask for a hair pic, u can blur out your face

lol, I wear it short because I'm a Man...


I just hang around only pro black people... and some of the chicks happen to promote and talk about natural hair.(some rock weave too). so over the years I've heard many things.. and the chicks I kick it w... I see them putting their hair up in knots n stuff. Some have dreads, etc.
