It's been 5 years now that I started my natural hair journey, this means that within 5years an average Nigerian hair can grow to waist length with some strategies.
I know many of you think its not possible to grow waist length, but I did it, and I'm almost there.

I had lots of up and down with my hair, but there are some steps that I follow. No No No, I'm not Ready to tell you common YouTube lies, or sell any product for you. I'm here to tell how a poor and average Nigerian female can successfully grow WAIST LENGTH Hair

I open this thread because of my excitement, i will gradually be updating the thread, so keep checking and ask your questions. If you want me to tell you my hair strategies, let me know. If not, I may not update this thread more than this.

If you are a lover of hair, don't just waka pass, let me know what your hair problems are, your current hair length etc, so I can help you with useful tips.

My Hair Story
I have always been a lover of natural beauty, from my skin to my hair. I'm always thinking of how to meet up with people chemically destroying their hair and skin in a natural safe effective way. So I began to research, I don't even know how I do pass while I'm school, because more than half of my time is spent on watching YouTube videos, reading hair blogs, experimenting hair and skin products, trying it out ,failing woefully, but thank God today, I can say I know most effective ways of maintaining a radiant healthy skin and hair.

If you want professional ways of glowing your skin without bleaching/toning creams, search for my group on Facebook and join.

AFRICA SAYS NO TO A VACCINE AID FROM BILL GATES AND OVERSEA.

Africa as a continent is not that affected as they are in overseas so why they have to envoy their aid here where people are not even 20% affected? This is a question that most Africans are askng themselves.
It is clear that there is something being prepared by those who think we (Africa) are a dustbin of all their aids. Italy is the most affeted country, America, where Bill Gates belongs and China, then comes France and other oversea countries. Why Bill Gates does not send his aid to Italy and America? It sounds fishy.
Time has come for Africa to unite and close all doors of begging for Africa is the most rich continent in terms of resources and minerals.
AFRICA SAYS NO TO THE GATES VACCINE.
Share this post to reach the four corners of Africa. Thanks

Why are you in believe and disbelief about the covid19. Sometimes you will say its a scam, and sometimes you will agree its here. Just wondering why you are having conflict of reasoning

OyinO:
Your comment is good but smoking is not bad either. Nice comment

Thanks for your complement. But smoking is bad, has no purpose. Lets consider it has no health dangers, it's a waste of time.
Even foods sometimes is a waste of time, and can be harmful if taken in excess without caution. You shouldn't be eating foods you don't need, for instance, I do not see the benefit of Fufu/Akpu for someone living a sedentary lifestyle, meanwhile its a necessity for someone doing hard labour.
The facial expression of smokers is abnormal, most teenagers smokes because of Ego amidst friends, which is a negative thing,as your actions shouldn't be decided by ego.

Smoking is addictive, Sir/ma, even if it is exessive talking that you are addicted to, you should stop. You shouldnt engage in anything that would control you.

Lastly, smoking is dangerous, it makes you less human, and distort your thinking. Also, there's no reason to be inhaling gas, when you can use that time for something positive

Sorry, didn't check my mails. lemme check it

Ok

I visited the synagogue during that period and I met Amokachi there,he was more of a worker then helping the church and hoping to get a miracle.
I didn't get my own problem solved too but I thank God I later got cured after 6yrs of visiting the synagogue.

Lol, 6years is enough to get anything treated and solved. Sorry, its not the synagogue.
I still wonder how you fall for these tricks, well, its laziness that makes Nigerians wants miracles by fire by force.

Read please, you will see other people with same problem like you that got it solved without involving anyone, nor any church. God is miraculous, everything in life is a miracle, giving birth is a miracle, getting pregnant is a miracle

CasNova:
Miracles still happen. The fact that he saw miracles around him showed that miracles were real.

Amokachie should not have sought for miracles.

He should have sought deliverance.

Please go and read about illusions and hallucinations, he was hallucinating

joyfullyjoyous:
Saw many people were healed but you were not healed.
This miracle of a thing goes with your faith. The Bible makes us realise if you have faith as little as mustard seed,if u ask the mountain to move,it shall be so.
Your condition may be pure medical. You ought to have gone to the hospital n not church.
TB Joshua is a powerful prophet of God.

Lol, please have faith and ask CORONA to move away. Do you mean the conglomeration of all the pastors in Africa doesn't have faith as small as a Mustard seeds? Why hvnt they sent corona away? You are leaving in illusion dear, wake up

Elpacino481:
Wow! This lady you're always on point. You keep disgracing these guys that talk based on sentiment and religion.

But you refused to reply my mail now. But why?

MakyavelitheDon:
You've overspoilt him and now he thinks it's his house and you guys are squatters I HIS house.
First of all you have to re-establish dominance.
Dogs have a pack mentality and right now he thinks you rank below him in the hierarchy.
At one and a half years he's not to old to be reeled in.
First and foremost if he's inside the house pls take him outside IMMEDIATELY.
let his abode be OUTSIDE the house.
Secondly put him on a chain and stop feeding him. Let him remain in hunger for about 24hrs.
After 24hrs feed him with a small amount of food. Good food. Possibly his favorite food.
Give him just enough to let him know what he's missing and not enough to satisfy his hunger.
When u feed him don't play with him, don't pet him, just put the food down and walk away.
Continue to ignore him through the second and third day while feeding him small amounts once a day.

I Could go on and on but honestly I'm tired of typing.
Maybe we should talk.
Bottom line is yr dog is taking over ur space and u need to take control back an show him who's the Alpha.
Buzz me if you want

But really, adding all this stress to your already stress filled life? Can you please tell me how you are able to do that

To train a child is a big stress, now adding a dog to it. Risking your children's life because you wan turn to Oyinbo. Na Oyinbo I know wey dey love animals like children, but Africans must copy. People are starting to own cats now sef. I pity all of you, be romancing dogs enh,be copying white people. I won't pity you when the dog harms you or your family member.

The time you used for disturbing your brain with yeye dog behaviour, you can invest it in your children, by monitoring their behaviour, read child psychology books. If I should ask most of you, what psyche stage is your child, you probably don't know.
At every childs stage, there are things to do for each child to bringforth some behaviors or erase some behaviors. Most bad temperaments starts from early childhood, as well as some adults behaviors that are as a result of some things as early as when the child is a year's old. Men just want to be naturally useless and give all the parenting role to mothers.
Buy psychology books and read about your child, I'm tired of seeing stingy adults, people that can't be contended, sluts, heart breakers, criminals, it all starts from the HOME and early childhood. Don't be a useless parent and later start blaming witches and wizards if your child start misbehaving, or blaming it on TEENHOOD. Children nowadays could start smoking, thanks to exposure to sites like Nairaland if not well monitored, they can start thinking their gays, lesbians etc. Some Agbaya on NL is busy promoting smoking, protect your child from such people through good monitoring, discipline and training.

This is indeed a misplaced priority.

WHO Has lost its credibility. The appointment should be reversed now or WHO will face our wrath.

WHO is a corrupt organization, for once I'm in support of trump withdrawing support for them. They brought the Covid 19 calamity to the world due to their corruption and late response. Employment with them is full of corruption.

AKALAMAGBO:
Now ask yourself again, which of all the countries aforementioned above by the guy can do what America has done to blacks, no matter how little it is in terms of humanitarian services. Did you read so many news about how China are treating blacks? Irans, Chinese and Arabs and the worst set of people in the world. Argue with the ancestors, if you know how they are toying with your fellow Nigerians in those Arab and Asian countries, you won’t come here spewing trash.

Chinese gave Nigerians 15 highly trained Doctors for free, cargo Plane load of face mask, 50 ventilators, drugs, and reliefs packages, US and Trump extracted their people from Nigeria, banned Nigerians legitimate immigrant , almost ruined Airpeace's Allen Onyeama and now they want our Doctors, pouching and toasting them

What was US response during Africa and Nigeria's Ebola crisis? they refused giving us an experimental drug.. When Boko haram killed hundreds daily what did US do? they refuse weapon sales to Jonathan because we rejected Gay and Lesbianism.

PayPal and Ebay refused registering Hard working Nigerians, Now Alibaba and AliExpress from China registers us and many youth can now trade and do mini importation without being termed Yahoo, infact if not for chinko phones many wont access internet yet they want to use propaganda to make us reject 5G network.
Copied,this should help you

another conspiracy theory

When I have time, I would create a thread on that with my scientifical proofs and evidences

jaxxy:
Fist off Persian empire are not the best scientist. 2ndly all the countries u mentioned all have smtn in common u failed to see. Poor or no humans right. Why do u think America is so powerful? They have the right ideology and system. All these countries ure play lovely dovy with don't love u!! Iran don't love u, China don't love u, India don't love u, North Korea don't love u. If u doubt go and live there freely and see if they won't send u to u ancestor b4 u know what hit u.

I don't know why u people support rubbish I the name of hate or rather ingratitude for a great that has delivered u from oppressive systems. Don't u like u freedom??

Or do u all want to be Persian slaves? Feeding their camels? Or Chinese slaves guarding their temples? MANY if u INGRATES fail to understand the only reason Iran, India, China, Saudi Arabia respect us blacks or other lesser countries is because of America!!!!!!

Y'ALL don't know that Continue to Romance ure potential slave masters ok.

As for me I LOVE America, they are not perfect bt God bless them a Billion Times.

ModestGal

Where you got it wrong is thinking America loves you, they are all the same, only intrested in their selfish interest. Non of them love Blacks or Africans except the BLACK Americans, may God bless them for me, sometimes I cry when I see how much they love Africans and Speak up for Africans.
Why I love Africa is because Africa remain the best continents that love these people unconditionally, we treat them like goddess when they are in our towns, please read history, it shows we are the most human, but their atrocities made us turn against them. We gave them land, foods, etc(again, read history), which is actually a good thing to treat visitors/strangers with Love, its naturally in our African culture and that's why they were able to capture us and maltreated us. And yet, Americans, and UK will claim to be the best humanitarian, isn't that hypocrisy?
Yes, America treats you right today, but its not natural to them, some people fought for those things, and its the black Americans, they were unrelenting warriors. And intermarriages made lots of whites join them. Most of those things you benefit today ere the result of actions of some people. And overall, its still for their selfish interest that they issue citizenship to foreigners that give births there etc. I'm tired of typing abeg

In his statement to the US House Armed Services Committee, General Joseph Votel elaborated on key military challenges to the US in the Middle East.

The statement, entitled "Terrorism and Iran: Defense Challenges in the Middle East," by General Votel covers not only Iran, but also Russia's impact on US operations. Specifically, the US general claims that the growing number of Russian surface-to-air missile systems in the region threatens their "ability to dominate the airspace." According to him, Russia is allegedly using the conflict in Syria to test new weapons and tactics "with little regard for collateral damage or civilian casualties."

The general fails to mention Russia's contribution to defeating the Daesh (banned in Russia) and its diplomatic efforts, which have resulted in dialogs between various warring groups in Syria. Votel branded Russia's role as being both an "arsonist and firefighter," claiming that Russia is "fueling the conflict" between Damascus, the YPG and Turkey, while also seeking to serve as a mediator in their negotiations. However, the US general didn't elaborate on what Russia's motives for doing so would be.

Votel went on to note the significant influence Russia has on states in Central Asia, which can possibly limit US military capabilities in Afghanistan, as their operations depend on logistical support from those countries.

Elpacino481:
Please School them. Many here think it's about US vs Iran or religion. This is about a nation developing in all aspects even when hit by wicked sanctions for 40 years.

Exactly bro, many people do not actually know some truth because they don't read, their are some laws,treaties, conditions that would never make Africa level up with British countries and US even if we have the best people seating in the government. These laws/treaties/conditions have already been signed many years back, and that is why Africa countries will remain developing countries. We can never meet up with them until many of these things are reviewed.
This happens in many sectors, musical awards, film making, novel prices et cet ra. Until we wake up to see this reality, we would always be trying and yielding nothing. Once every 10years, they would throw awards to some musicians/actors,and they would start jubiliating whereas in truth, they can never be as good as some of our actors/musicians, imagine having to compete with them in their language and culture, let them try and compete with us in ours, then we will all see who has strength pass. I'm so happy for the black Americans, I'm sure they would be the one to save Africans, they read a lot more than us, just that it makes them become bitter. If Africans should start reading histories and all these treaties, we would be worst than the black Americans in bitterness, because we have been intentionally cheated, and fooled for years. I wish Africa would become great in my eyes, but its not possible. But with Education, there's hope. With 5g network, our eyes would widen and our great grandchildren will make things right. Our people need to read and read

jaxxy:
I agree with u to only some extent. Yes international terror cos Saudi has the money or sponsors bt this may have nothing to do with the Saudi government itself bt certain personalities.

Iran on the other hand it is the government most times sponsoring terrorists.

Yes terrorists use the Saudi Shia ideology as basis for their crimes bt Saudi government distances itself from it.

Saudis are one of the most oppressive country in the world, and they are nothing but a disgrace to Islam. Saudi has sponsored so many talibans in the interest for Islamic world domination and power.
Saudi have sponsored more terrorists than Iran. Iran is far more peaceful than the Saudis, who are hypocritically trying to dominate by sponsoring.

I said they were/are not perfect. They are flawed.

All the greats are flawed. America is flawed. But it still stands that it's the greatest institution humanity has put up.

While you are at it please tell me the Country that never practiced slavery. Slavery still exists in its many forms even in Nigeria today. The scale and publicity of the practice is what's different.

Racism (while terrible) is a scapegoat. Prejudice in its many forms (Classism, Tribalism, Marginalization,Sexism etc.) is still rife around the world today.

You really need to read history. America is one of the countries that have done lots of harm in the world. Even Americans know this. Stop being an ass licker dear

These people (scholars) have impressed me. May Allah blessed them, I never expected them to follow rules, but doing that is commendable.

Science and technology is yet to find cure for HIV, Epilepsy, Cancer etc, but God through the pastors, with prayers said in Jesus name have brought about healing to these
Science and technology have not explained to us, how a woman who has gone past her age of child bearing, will still take in and bear children.
Science and technology has failed to explain to us, how a woman, without a womb will still be mother of children. These and many more has God through the pastors have done.

Lies, which pastor did that abeg? Yes, miracles happen, but not at the hand of any pastor abeg. We've seen such miracles happening to people of different religions, not just Christians, including Atheists. Saying they are the handwork of some fake pastors is false, or saying its because of faith in Jesus.
There's no country in the world that such miracles don't exist, you can help yourself with Google if you don't believe me, happening to idolaters, Muslims, bhudist,Christians, hinduists, Jews et cet ra. Affiliating it with a pastor is fake. Why don't your so called pastor see Covid19last year? Even before Christianity enters Africa, there was miracles in Africa, help yourself with some history books. Everything happening now was happening before Christianity came, pastors have only succeeded in making Nigerians to be more foolish, aside that, they have no benefit than to remove themselves from unemployed Nigerians

honeyB2018:
You got wrong. Science and technology, as much as they have tried, are yet to find all solution to man's need, including your so called knowledge based economy.
But God still remains the ultimate power and source of all wisdom and knowledge, which he in bestows to men including the pastors.


Domdva

I don't know why people like you, love to take a swipe at the pastors, when they have not been given opportunity to demonstrates their God given power over Covid 19.
Pastors were asked to close down their churches, those who dare to open them are, harassed, arrested, taken to courts and are fined. So why blame and castigate them?
By the way, are there not medical conditions, that are beyond science, technology medication, that God by these lampooned pastors have healed in the past?

So you think we would risk the life's of Nigerians for some 50/50chance pastors miracles? A pastor who believes in his miracle should volunteer to be locked up inside isolation center for 14days to perform his miracle, its only through that we can allow them. If not, then we shouldn't risk the lives of sensible Nigerians

Suzzi23:
Hi guys. Please I need advice.

There is this guy in my department. Let's call him Joe. He is good looking and very intelligent. He also has this very nice voice and good vocabulary. Initially we were just normal casual classmates, we greet, exchange notes and all that, nothing serious. I've always found him attractive but have not found him special in any way because I've met lots of guys like him in my University.

But few months ago he started becoming more friendly towards me. We got talking and we realized we shared a lot in common. He asked me if I was single and I told him I was. This was the truth because I wasn't dating anyone then.

Few days after another guy I was very close to asked me to be his girlfriend and I agreed. I'm in love with this guy. He is very jovial, intelligent and he knows how to treat me well. I know he loves me because I've known him for a while and he has treated me with love, affection and respect. It's always fun being around him and I enjoy his company.

Despite now being in a relationship, I still continued spending time with Joe. We shared a lot of deep intimate info about ourselves with each other. I have never felt more comfortable talking to someone before. Talking to him always made me feel good. I felt I could be vulnerable with him. He was very honest and didn't hide the dark aspects of himself. He wasn't the type to pretend he was a good person. And he wasn't. He had done a lot of bad things in the past and he wasn't afraid to talk to me about them. And although this might sound weird I liked the fact that he wasn't the typical "moral individual" I was used to meeting. I liked the fact that he had a dark personality that only me knew about. He said things to me that made me begin to explore myself and my sexuality in ways I didn't even imagine that I could. He was always fond of teasing me and never hesitated to correct me if I did anything wrong. I loved that kind of honesty.

As we talked more Joe opened up to me that he was attracted to me and had feelings for me. He would flirt with me and I'd try my best not to flirt back but I enjoyed his flirting and I enjoyed his company. He asked me if I felt the same way about him and I was honest and I said I had feelings for him, because I did. He is an attractive guy and even though I have a boyfriend I can't help being attracted to him..

He then asked me to be his girlfriend and I told him I was already dating someone. He was surprised by my response. He told me he was under the impression that I was single and that's why he had gotten so close and intimate with me. But he didn't appear angry or sad. He even told me my bf was lucky to have me.

The problem now is that since that day he hasn't talked to me. When I see him in class, he doesn't even act like I exist. He doesn't reply my messages, doesn't pick up my calls and doesn't check up on me. Throughout this lockdown he hasn't even texted me once. This is unlike him. I feel very bad about the whole thing. It's almost like our relationship didn't mean anything to him and I didn't mean anything to him. I want to still be friends with him.

I wish to be friends with Joe, people like him are really rare
1. He knows what he wants
2. He's matured
3. He has a focus
4. He's a good man.
As for you, flirting when you have a boyfriend is extremely bad, you seem not to know what you want, and you want to have your cake and bread same time. If Joe was a bad guy, you would have ended up cheating on your boyfriend.
I do not entertain silly friendships between make and females, my friends should only discuss important issues, and not dating/sexual stuff, if a friend try that with me, that would be the end to our friendship because I don't forgive such things . I love my boyfriend so much that I won't even cheat him emotionally
