out to even both textures

---> Then put it in a puff by tying a hair band around my
hair (just like you tie a rope) and then tucking the
ends in

Lovelygurl you can't ask after person sef?

Na WA o, is that how you do?

Anyway, my hair has been behaving amazingly. Since it doesn't like anything in a bottle, I've learnt to make do with homemade shampoo and conditioner. Just last week, the unimaginable happened. My hair got soft and curly so soft I had to call my mother to touched it if it wasn't a trick on me.

I left it for two days without applying anything and it was still soft.

I went to the market with it. I was receiving compliments left and right. Some asked how I made it curly, some out rightly asked me if it was weavon on my head.

My hair has tripled in body and in length. I would soon be parting it in four sections(i'm waiting for that day, I don tire to part hair in 15 sections)

My only problem is this, they say you should moisture your hair with water when it's dry. Some hair guru said you should have a spray bottle at hand to spray on your hair at intervals.

Whenever I spray my hair with water it gives off this musty smell I don't like. If I don't, it is OK. What should I do? Should I stop?

Awww sorry dear lol! I'm so happy for you! If the curls are coming out, it means it's getting really moisturised!

You don't always have to carry a spray bottle with you. If it's dry, spray at home and seal it with an oil or leave in or both. As long as it is sealed, it should remain moisturised for at least 2-3 days

I'm so happy too. I use only shea butter on my hair since my hair is so dry coconut oil doesn't do much. My hair doesn't like coconut oil. She's so choosy.

I'm so happy i've come this far. Thanks y'all for motivating me. My neighbor has relaxed her hair, said she can't cope. If not you guys I would have relaxed mine too. You saved a sister.

Now I love my hair so much..i've never been conscious about my hair like this. I go to the saloons and don't care what they do so long I get out. But this natural hair journey has taught me a whole lot. Now I wash my hair by myself and can treat it too.

Thanks lovelygurl for this thread. You won.

*my hair was curly like this pic, after day two the curls Shrunk but was still soft. How do I make the curls last. Or would it come on its own?

Awww, this is so adorable . Maybe you should stretch it. Shrinkage is normal but stretching helps a lot. You can do the banding method on the night of day 1 or before it shrinks

Hello Ladies,if you are a naturalista in Abuja, come treat and style your hair at Vog naturals hair salon

I've been thinking about relaxing my hair and bought this Dark & Lovely relaxer last week. I'm yet to use it, partly b/c I'm still deliberating. It has really great reviews, though, so I'm not worried about the relaxer itself. After years of being natural, I thought I would NEVER buy a relaxer to use again.

As long as there's no sulfate, silicone or petrealeum/ mineral oil in it, then sure why not?

If it's getting fuller and thicker, that means it's growing but you're just not seeing it. I have a feeling it's cos of shrinkage. You'd be surprised at the length if you decided stretch it out

thanks for the reply and weldone, the one I saw have expired so I couldn't buy it, all these products are not easy to get here(oru ijebu in ogun state). the only product I saw was hair wonder cream and I but coconut oil from those woman that are selling the measured one. I later realised I can't use coconut oil for my hair type. I don't know what to do. and how can I send pm on nairaland? I want to send you my number for the whatsapp group. thanks once again

Omg! You live in Oru? I used to love around that area, on Ago Iwoye to be precise. I was born there

Anyway back to the hair problem. Using coconut oil is kinda tricky. I'm guessing you have low porosity hair. If you apply it, use a wooly cap to cover it up for about 30 mins, so it's going to sink in your hair. The warmth created will allow the oil to be absorbed by your hair. You can try the hair wonder cream. Most people say it's good

Noncy21, I already added you
