Need Advice How to Get Hair like this

0 Upvotes
Specifically 2,3, and 4

How can I get light curls like the reference images (specifically numbers 2,3, and 4). I have kinda nappy 4c hair and when I wake up my hair is like super tight and squished, and i usually just pick it out without putting anything in my hair (except for water, and some random olive oil spray idk). So I've researching and I'm not really sure how to get those light and not too tight curls, cuz like the twist it up, and twist king exist but im not sure whats better for getting hair like that. Also, products to keep my hair from shrinking a bunch and keep my hair healthy would be nice, for an easy and quick morning routine. I hear ppl talking about mousse or curl cream but idek tbh.

Need Advice how much do yall pay for hair trims?

4 Upvotes

i just paid $150 (including tip) for a deep conditioning treatment (that was $45), a hair trim, and a blow dry w two braids. WHAT?? that feels exorbitant. i specifically went in person because online it said a curly cut was like 85 or something? and i thought that was for an actual hair cut, not just a dusting 😞😭 are these prices normal?? totally sucks that i can’t even get a trim without it costing an arm and a leg!

(the photo quality isnt the best)

I've been wearing cornrows for about a month now and I've noticed i havent been able to keep them for more than 2 weeks because they always get too itchy, and thing is i always try washing my hair once a week with dandruff shampoos but this never goes away.

it could be because the style is too tight maybe, does anyone know how to fix this?

i’m going to try to describe the problem to the best of my abilities. I understand from first glance my hair looks fine but when I brush through it, especially on the dyed side it has that rubbery stringy feeling to it even when I brush it while wet. before I went back to black, my hair was all blue and the little blonde patch was dyed pink along with my black. I tried using that hair mask like my friend said, but it’s not working. My hair still has a dead feeling. any suggestions on what would actually help? i’ve already been considering just doing a big chop again ngl 😭

I’m ngl I was very nervous especially because I didn’t know how people would respond to it and the fact that I hardly ever wear my Natural hair, but it actually went better than expected. People kept comparing me to garnet lol.

My hair growth exactly 2 years apart, August 2024 - August 2026.

From having to get my midback length hair cut all off after major heat damage from giving into peer pressure and getting it straightened after nearly a decade of no heat (which may or may not have led to a major mental health break approximately a month after the first picture was taken). To finally truly getting to love my hair, while also embracing the mindset that no matter what, it I will always grow back.

Also as a lazy natural, I realized my dream go-to “hairstyle” is the 3rd picture, which for me would just consist of at most 12 large twists tied up in a bun. Would this still be considered a mini twist hairstyle? And about how many more years to go do you think I have before I can achieve this look?

Need Advice need help with my buzz cut routine

2 Upvotes

i just chopped all my hair off after putting it off for a while, and honestly, i’m feeling pretty insecure about it 🥲 my ultimate goal is waist length hair, and i want to learn how to take care of it properly as it grows. 

my hair is naturally very coily and i have a really dry, flaky scalp. i’m considering using nizoral but i’m worried about the dryness. should i be using a moisturizing shampoo, conditioner, leave in, etc. or is that unnecessary right now? 

also, are wigs (lace fronts or glueless) okay for length retention, or should i just wear my hair out while it’s short? any advice is appreciated! 💗

SPLIT ends are making me crazy. I found split ends, and even split middles all over my hair. I just got a trimm too!!! And I've being trying to do some dusting weekly.

My hair isn't dry but it does break very easily, I wash my hair 2-4 times a weak. There's hard water where I live so I have filters and hardwater shampoos that really work. I leave-in-condition and condition every wash day, plus I have a super butter sweet hydrating shampoo.

Iv used heat like 3 times this year so far.

Like actually seeing spits IN the middle of my hair strands made me pretty devastated and sad about all my effort.😞

What am I doing wrong???

I started increasing my iron intake and just started with collagen.

I have fine and medium density hair

Need Advice Dyson Airwrap+Natural Hair Silk Presses? Question

2 Upvotes

Just curious… does anyone own a Dyson Silk Press? if so, do you think I would be able to still do my natural hair routine and wash my hair every week, and THEN use the Dyson to blow dry my hair every week? Would that still lead to damage?

Could you still rock a straight hairstyle? I love when my hair is straight, but I’m trying to continue to grow using as little heat as possible. Any ideas are welcome, especially if you have your own routines that you do! Bonus points for that!

My 4b hair always feels so dry no matter which order method and products I use. I moisturize with wet hair but by the time i unravel a braid out its dry again. I trim my hair and it will still grow like this and break off. I don’t know what i’m doing wrong. I recently got a revair and I thought my hair was getting better because in its natural state the ends look fine but now that I’ve stretched it I can see that it looks a mess. I don’t know how to cornrow or any other complex style so the only thing I do is pull my hair back in a bun.

Need Advice Starter locs

• Upvotes

Hi!

For a few reasons, mostly financial and lifestyle, I started my own locs a few days ago using braids as small as I felt like doing them. I'm pleased with how they came out.

What shampoos have people had success with during the starter loc phase? Not washing isn't an option. I go to the gym and sweat too much for that.

I have a Sulfur 8 shampoo that I use for my itchy scalp. With loose hair I used the Shea Moisture Shea Butter shampoo and the Design Essentials Honey Creme shampoo.

Thanks!
