THINNING EDGES

Does anyone have a problem with thinning edges (your hair front)? What products do you use? & are they helping significantly? I know there's a serious issue when it's shiny, thankfully that's not the case. Just need some products, homemade or store bought...doesn't matter. Thanx ladies

P.S. Does anyone know if wearing lace fronts w/o glue or tape thins your edges, from friction I guess? Idk, just asking

Felicia Leatherwood (does Jill Scott's hair among others) says Organic Root Stimulator's Temple Balm will grow your edges back if you use it faithfully as directed which I believe is twice a day. Provided this isnt a hereditary condition!

Cant hurt to try!

I have it and the serum but of course my hair a.d.d causes me to lose focus if results aren't quick lol. So I havent been using it everyday much less twice a day. I guess I need to step my game up lol. Thanx

Girl I cant even take a vitamin everyday so I know EXACTLY what you mean!!

Okay when i first started transitioning i had the genius idea to buy full lace wigs and lace front well let me tell you i stopped after try 4 or 5 because the tape and glue does pull on edges is pretty much like using those awful glued in track they pull hair , my edges are very full so i didn't lose much for a stranger to notice and once i stopped wearing those wigs they grew back Thank GOD
As far as the edges i follow this young lady on youtube her edges were almost none existent and she massage it daily with EMU oil and castor oil and they growing back i also heard of megatek chemotherapy patient use it to grow their hair back so im sure it will work on your edges

I have been using castor oil everyday since October 13, 2010 and I can say that my edges have really thickened. I am loving castor oil!!! I will continue to use this throughout my hair journey def a staple!!!

You know what, I did read that emu oil worked but havent gotten around to buying off the net. Trying to find the most for the cheapest price is definitely my thing. But I do have JBCO & megatek on my dresser, I guess I'll go back to using them.

As for the lace fronts, I don't use glue or tape. Just kinda "cotch" it on my head & use hair pins where I need to.

I HAVE VERY THIN EDGES. I WILL TRY SOME OF THESE OPTIONS AND REPOST THE RESULTS. ORGANIC STIMULATORS, TEMPLE BALM, AND CASTRO OIL.

When i went natural almost three years now, my edges was absolutely horrendous ( NONE) getting a weave that was way to tight, pulled all my hair out in the front. My hair was growing in the middle and the back, but the front was terrible.

So for almost 2 1/2 years i did not wear my out, i faithfully put Castor oil and Peppermint oil almost everyday on my edges... i wore wigs but wore a satin bonnet under so the friction would not rub against my edges and slowly but surely my edges are filling in. It takes time and patience and you have to be very careful but it will work.

I am actually @ work rocking an Afro puff and my edges are fine.. Not perfect but much better than before. But i am going to try Emu oil and see how that works.

HTH

with prayer saying " FATHER GOD IN THE NAME OF JESUS YOU SAID TO SPEAK THOSE THINGS AS THOUGH THEY WERE SO IM COMING TO SAY THANK YOU LORD FOR RESTORING MY HAIR BACK IN THE NAME OF JESUS AMEN"., shampoo once a week with doo gro moisturizing gro shampoo massaging for 5 minutes or co wash with mega tek let mega tek sit for 30 minutes then wash remember once a week,daily use doogro anti thinning growth lotion around the whole head except for edges and back of head massage temples and back of head with triple grow anti thinning herbal gro this really works i have been dealing with the same thing i notice growth as little as 2 weeks if that

Wow, glad to hear everyone having such good results with castor oil! I'm extra excited about our challenge now!!

My temple area is thin too. I've tried the ORS balm and serum. I've also tried some profectiv temple grow stuff. I think what has started working for me is the JBCO. My temple area is still thin, but I can see a difference and I'm not AS selfconscious about wearing my hair pulled back or up. It's growing in slowly but surely.

Castor oil thickened my hairline in no time!!! I use it once a week as a hot oil treatment
