On the scalp? I've used it when I've felt my ends were too dry, but I don't think it does anything for me. But I don't put anything on my scalp anymore, my hair prefers that. After researching for myself instead of reading what everyone on hair forums say, I would like to try it again, but I don't think I'm doing it right. What's your regimen?

Right now I wash my hair Wednesdays and Saturdays w/ Suave Naturals and Pantene Nature Fusion conditioners. Wednesdays I use Aussie Moist 3 min miracle w/ oil as a deep condition and Saturdays is Queen Helene's Cholesterol. The Blue Magic is twice a week between twists.

I just walked out the house with rollers in my head! Oh Lord, I have no
clue how some ladies walk out the salon with NO SHAME cuz I was ducking
behind bushes and praying for an invisibility cloak lol.

Can you say never again?!?

I know this is gonna sound weird but does anyone know if u have to train ur hair to be down and not out?

by afrochic 10th August 2010, 3:20 pm

@mz. cici: i dont think that is weird at all! i believe u do have to train ur hair to be down and not out! just like when u part ur hair a different way then usual. u have to do it a couple of times so that part lays flat and doesnt try to revert back to it's old ways l0l! or just like when u first cut ur bangs u have to train ur hair to get use to that cut!

umm did i kinda help?!? l0l

by Mz. CiCi 10th August 2010, 3:25 pm

u did. I just want my hair to lay down and not be so fro-y sometimes. I have kinda a big head and my fro doesn't help

by afrochic 10th August 2010, 3:27 pm

have u done flat twists before?! cuz when i do them i part my hair to how i want it to look then i flat twist so that my hair will stay down and not out

Is it bad that I only use EVOO as a natural product and everything else is store brought and made?

Of course it's not bad. You should do whatever works for you and your hair. Random Teen Talk - Page 8 Icon_smile

If I knew it was gonna work, I'd buy it. But shipping and paying for a product that may not work is wayyyy too expensive.

Experiencing a bad case of hair envy....wish my hair was growing longer...maybe I should invest in more natural products

by lumii 13th August 2010, 12:07 pm

I know that... there was a time I was so frustrated about my hair growth that I just bought all sort of dr miracle grow oil and doo gro or whatever they're all called..
But I don't think investing a lot of money in too many natural products is the solution.
You should look at your family line if the women mostly have long or short hair. I've learned that I my hair just grows really slow and there's nothing I can do to it, because it's just like that in my genetics.
The best we can do is to keep our hair healthy and be PATIENT Random Teen Talk - Page 8 Icon_biggrin

Both my mom and sis have long hair that grows fast (Mom likes to cut it off). I'm just trying to figure out if it's the way I style my hair that makes it seem to grow slower.

by Humblebug 13th August 2010, 10:20 pm

CiCi, do you wash you stretch your hair or do more wash and gos?

Thinking of going full brunette. I semi-dyed my hair jet black for the summer and loved it - but it kinda washed me out and my mom thinks I would make a nice brunette. I know it's best to stay natural but I have that dull hair colour, not black, not a true brunette. It's annoying and I'm bored, haha.

I stretch for mini twists and I never really do wash and gos. I'm more of a twist girl

by BeautifullyMehh 14th August 2010, 9:20 am

Good Luckk!!

Randomness- My Mom has finally agreed to me getting the big chop & now i'm so excited and nervous at the same time. I have about 1&1/2 inches of new growth. My Mom said I Have to wait until Christmas. I convinced her to let it be my gift lol. But I'm not sure if it will look right on me? I've never had short hair before, so I really can't picture it. Any thoughts?

by rayray19 14th August 2010, 11:49 am

I'm sure it will look great...but make sure your prepared to do the BC mentally, physically, and emotionally because its a BIG change..I'm 3 weeks post my BC and I'm loving everyday with my new look

oh yea and make sure your prepared for your twa by having products to style it (gel) and accessories to spice it up (headbands, earrings, scarves) and you will be fine

by Humblebug 14th August 2010, 1:35 pm

CiCi, Oh I thought that maybe you did wash and gos which doesn't help with retention compared to stretching. Maybe it's just that you're paying too much attention to length and feeling that it doesn't grow? When I first went natural I did that, but now I got a hair cut and am not worried about hair growth.

At Beautifully, judging from your avatar, I think you'll look great with a twa. And is that a cookie monster wallet? Or is it just me.

And this December, I'm actually going to participate in an Igbo wedding. Not just visit and watch. Yay! Random Teen Talk - Page 8 Icon_surprised
