I could actually see your fingers running through the Amazonian patch Nerd, not a pretty image at all

I use Shea for my body not hair.
So that shampoo helps to straighten out the hair . I need that badly. I will look for it ASAP.  A big thanks

Thanks @SA Goddess Very helpful.

Inked_Nerd:


No my dear [lol], I said it strengthens the hair not straightens it.

Lmao. When you said patch it made me think of bald spots. Can you imagine him having bald spots down there? LMFAO.

Oh Lawd I thought that was the answer to my bushy hair saga. Darn notebook, I cant see nadda

You should open a thread on making you own products, it would be a great money saver.

No worries Maddy

Nerd, I imagined a thick mess of tangled Amazonian forest, even a bald patch is not pretty to imagine, LOL!

I agree Madlady, Nerd should open a thread for natural products - how to make your own!

Inked_Nerd:


I've got tons of recipes that I wouldn't mind sharing. Girl, ya just gotta learn to work with your hair not against it. When you find something that works for you, stick with it. I've heard that henna looses up hair a bit, but think its temporary though .

Lmao, I just realized that you two were suggesting that I start a thread. I initially I thought madlady was saying that she wanted to start a thread.

Your great with people and fab at passing on info.

SA Goddess, I love my new name.

Nerdy girl is great with information and is a people's person, love her spirit!

Glad you like it Maddy

Inked_Nerd:


lol, aww you guys are too nice. I'll start a thread over the weekend and we'll see how it goes.

Nice one Nerd, open a thread and see how it goes but that information will be invaluable to "natural" sistas!

Hey ladies,

My hair is growing so nicely, thick and gorgeous, I love it! Still not long enough to braid but I am now patient with it, taking it a day at a time!

How is everyone doing?

It's been 2 weeks since I braided my hair and I miss my hair. I can't wash the hair and my hair is missing water. When I do take the braids off I wonder when next I'll braid again. I wonder if I'll miraculously go from ear length to neck length I doubt.

LOL@ ear length to neck length over night

I know I am not doing singles/braids for a long while, that is what led me to cut my hair in Aug in the first place!!!

Inked_Nerd:


Hehehe, everything is good on my end. Nice to see that your hair is growing nicely.

lol, at least you can braid yours. I wish I could braid mine right now .

Have a little patience Miss Nerd

How? Did it destroy your edges? I braid my hair twice a year. Can't stand more than that.

@ Inked,by the time you braid you'll miss your hair. A change in looks is always worth the stress though.

I had them on for four months throughout the winter and it was knotted, my hairdresser and her gentle touch could not avail herself and kept messing me around so I got mad and went to the barber to shave it off, I was not prepared to let someone else handle me roughly, break my hair in the process and burn my sculp with relaxer (chemical) and still get paid for it! I am glad I did too because I thought I had missed going natural ONCE again. . . .

Four months! What kind of braids was that? The longest I have had braids on is a month and a half and only because I was lazy to loosen it. This one might be the shortest,i hope i get to carry it for 3 weeks. The hair don tire me.

Yeah girl, 4 months, it was the "singles" like drop and something but done all the way to the end. . . . you sit for 8 hours and pay a lot of money for those so it does not make sense to take them out after a month when you put so much into getting them done. Never again though, taking them out is another story! I will be doing cane/cornrows from now on!

Inked_Nerd:


lol, when I said braid I meant  braid with my own hair. I don't like to use extensions when I braid my hair.

I hope to do that too but it will be a while before my hair grows to a length that can achieve that.

Same type I used to do. It didn't matter how long I sat,after a month it's coming out or I lose my hair. I think the only style I kept for 4 months was when i did dreadlocks with extensions. Never again will I do that. My hair was never the same after taking the extensions out.

I loosened my braids today and was amazed when I saw my hair It has grown so much in 3 weeks. It made me seriously consider re-braiding but it needs to rest for now and given TLC. A lot of women kept asking when I would use relaxer on my hair and I said no. They were shocked and couldn't understand why I said what I did. I didn't bother to explain. I can't wait to show them how beautiful natural hair can be when taken care of properly.
