This thread is to create awaereness for those who wants to go natural or transitioning.

In this thread we are going to share ideas on how to manage our hair.

I did my big chop February this year.
It has not been easy. Being natural is not an easy task.
I'm still trying my best to know more about natural hair.

What most black women don't know is, what works for another person might not work for you. Yes! I do watch youtube channel. The truth is whenever i try to manipulate my hair the way i watch it on youtube, i end up causing more damages to my hair.

These points am about to give out are based on my hair journey, which wasn't even serious..lol.

1.constant combing of hair: combing your hair always is a no! no!. The black hair as many of us call it afro hair like to left alone. It's advisable when you comb your hair, pls do it with a wide tooth comb. #stay away from those combs that have damaged edges(which makes it easy to strip the hair.

2.everyday conditioning: when you condition your hair, it makes it easy to manage

3.Shampoos: it's not advisable to shampoo (afro/kinky) hair constantly. constant shampooing may result in dryness of hair.do it once in two weeks.

4. Leave in conditioner: this is another good way to manage your hair.

5. Twist out: this serve as a protective style. This also save you a lot of time, so, you dont have to worry about getting your hair wet everyday.

6. Massaging the scalp of your hair:massaging the scalp of your hair with a good hair treatment also helps to grow an healthy hair.

7. Protective styling: this is another great way to manage your hair. Braids/weaves serve as protective style.

8.Tight braids/weaves: if you want to have an healthy hair, it is always advisable to avoid tight/weaves. Cos you may end up doing more damage to your hair. Always inform your hair stylist to go easy on your hair.

Note: these are based on my hair journey:

Team beardy loading.

Nice!

Yay! I've been transitioning since January and I finally had my big chop in June.
My hair routine is pretty simple for now. I co-wash everyday, moisturize with shea butter and seal with coconut oil everyday. I only comb my hair after conditioning.
Every two weeks, I deep condition overnight with hair mayonnaise, avocado, egg yolk and honey.
I wash with shampoo every two weeks too.
Shrinkage is a bïtch, by the way

Wey d natural hair?

Well...it kinda screams Bushman or bag lady, but at least you got the face to pull the whole look off.

I had my big chop in July 2014, so my hair is going to be 3 years this month. My advice to people who want to go natural is that you've got to be ready for it. It's not easy and you've got to adopt a routine. I don't have a regular one I follow cause I'm quite lazy when it comes to my hair . But I never miss out on the protective styling and I always look forward to when I get my hair braided or fix my weave . Shea butter, coconut oil, conditioners(detanglers, leave-in) and shampoo are a must have for all natural sistas.
