I think all those "rules" are stupid and won't ever apply to every natural head in the world. As long as it works for you, then go ahead and use it. Since cutting my hair, I'm at a 3 product max but most days it's just 2. I swear by Shea Moisture products so I use one of their shampoos (I switch between the moisturizing, curling and thickening products) and I use the thickening lotion. Sometimes I use olive oil gel if I have flyaways.
Put less emphasis into the products and more into your diet. If your hair is dry drink more water or get some omega 3's into your system. A protein rich diet is good for your hair too. Some things the products will never offer and you'll spend a fortune trying to find the right one.

Co-signing to this. This stuff worked so well on my hair when I was natural but it is a lil expensive. I tried to use it again when I went back to relaxing (I don't have an ounce of patience) but it felt too heavy :-(
When I stopped relaxing it was never a concious thing, I just got sick of relaxing my hair for some reason but I do remember the struggle well.
I didn't do the big chop but after being natural about 2 years I decided to cut all my hair off (stress related) and now I'm struggling to grow it back. I don't know what's worse, the perm to natural struggle or this short hair not enough to do shyt with struggle. *sigh*
I really want to wear headscarves but I'm not sure how professional at work that would be. I could say I'm a Muslim an dare them to discriminate.

I'd do it and walk around like I wish yall would say something
That struggle ain't no joke. It sucks so bad especially with all the damn shrinkage
I BD'ed on a whim and it was great until it started to get longer. Those damn knots, tangles, and the shrinkage was killing me! I just didn't have the patience for it (I'm lazy a.f) but I really miss it sometimes. I have been thinking about transitioning again but I just but I just bought a new thing of Mizani Butter Blend.
I use Hawaiian Silky Miracle Worker 14-1My Curls Are Dry
Any Moisturizers You Guys Care To Recommend?
It keeps my hair super moisturized, and it's cheap (about $6.00 at Sally's Beauty Supply).

LMAO!! Long hair, More care. I feel you. The more my hair grew, the longer it took to style and the longer it took to untangle. Maybe you can give it another go. Just find some styles that are easy to maintain for an extended period of time.
I used to do small twists and I kept them for weeks.

"It's 99% humidity outside
putting this durag on for an hour before you leave the house gonna lay these naps down all day?" Nah, I'm not sure at all
Can you post an example of what you'd wear? I really want to try it. On the weekends I do it with no problem.
I have a little bump on the front and back of my right piercing. I've tried sea salt soaks which helped but the thing came back

The girl at my daycare rocks her headscarves like that and she looks so proper. I may have to play around with it and hope insecurity doesn't ruin the moment
