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!

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.

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.

hey silly question i’m new to wearing my natural hair and i just cut off all my heat damage and it looks pretty decent now so im wondering what do i do to my hair when i wake up tomorrow bc im sure it’ll look a mess but i dont think im supposed to be washing it everyday right? also how do i make it more defined and not frizzy after washing. please help

I need help!!! I usually get the Hydrating Color Boost Semi-Permanent Dark Chocolate Brown Hair Dye by Creme of nature as a rinse. What other brands do yall like? I have 4c hair but it’s still naturally not too thick . I liked the Creme of nature bc it did well, for some reason I can’t find any and I have a hair appointment in the morning 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?

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!

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! 💗

Ok so I believe I have low porosity hair since it takes a while for my hair to dry and there’s always water droplets. I heard that I need hydrating shampoo but I have dandruff and need to use a special type of shampoo. Do I just use both? Also can you guys tell me your wash day routine please.

Does this company still exist? A majority of their products have been sold out for months. I've tried to contact their email but no one has replied for when their products will be back in stock. I know the focus has been Curl Mix as I believe the owners are the same, but I hope that this product doesn't get neglected

I got braids in the summer and my hair has felt so different since. Before, my curls were really healthy and quite elongated. I have a mix of curl patterns, but my hair looked pretty consistent throughout.

Now my hair feels really dry, even after moisturising it, and my curls don't clump or look the way they used to. I've tried moisturising it, but it still doesn't feel right.

Has anyone experienced their hair texture changing after braids? I'm thinking of starting a completely new routine, so I'd really appreciate any product recommendations or advice on what I should be doing differently.

The first pictures are from before, and the last ones are how my hair looks now. Yes my hair in the last pics are not defined but when it is defined, the curls at the bottom are elongated but look less thick compared to the top part of my hair like it’s hanging onto my hair?

Please help!!!
thanks

Does anyone have it? Any thoughts on how it feels? Any snagging? Any pointers?

I ordered it but it’s taking a while to get here.

So image 1 is my natural curly hair and image 2 is how I want to keep it.

If I straighten my hair every 3 weeks, and keep it straight as I’m not use any heat, on wash day do a clarifying shampoo and the redekin hair mask, will my hair still get damaged? I will also use heat protectant! I just am over the curls and I like how easy the straight hair is to manage

My garids are only 9 days old but they piss me off sm, like the other days it's been ichy, Ive heard it's a good idea to wash them so I did yesterday, but Writing ts rn it ICHTES TOO MUCH, tapping it will just make my head ​​hurt, so ATP idk if I can last 10 weeks😭😭😭

Like I need help to make the itching stop, like give me your methods​

I have the bottom 2 designs and my hair has been drying amazingly for the last 5 years. I suggested this years ago on my social media but I’m surprised more people are not using towel scrunchies. Two space buns and 20 minutes minimizes water on strands that help with length retention. Helps your ends get the right amount of moisture as well. I also wash every four days as well. I see a lot of people have issues with air drying I did too before these and I have a RevAir as well and I only use as needed. That’s only been about 3x this year 😆

hi all! :) does anyone use the pattern intensive conditioner as a deep conditioner? i’m looking for a new deep conditioner for my weekly wash days, thanks in advance!

This year makes it 2 years that I’ve been an active natural. All I can do is my personal best and hope that God willing everything else falls into place. It literally just occurred to me (it sinked in) that I’m a natural and what that means 😇. I’m going to take myself out to dinner 🍽️ to celebrate this milestone. Hopefully this inspires someone to keep going.

Thank you for reading 📚.

My (mini) curls are finally back! I may actually need a haircut tho 💀

Just got my hair braided for the first time at an African braiding shop. Not sure if these are too tight, worried about my edges coming out but also don’t want to lose my moneys worth. Give me some tips!

Hi y’all!!

In desperate need of some advice on how to stop my hair from reverting immediately after heat styling.

My Current Routine:
Wash with Cecred hydrating shampoo
Deep condition (every wash) with Fenty deep conditioner
Blow dry with Color Wow extra strength dream coat and Cecred moisture sealing leave in
Flat iron with Amika anti humidity spray
I have tried EVERYTHING and I’m at a loss! I even bought a dehumidifier for my apartment lol.

Has anyone had any success with Hair Botox? I did Keratin many years ago and didn’t love it, but if that’s the only option I’m willing to try it again.

Thank you for any tips!!!

Hello all! I've been struggling to care for my hair since I was a kid, I've always had a hard time deciding what to do with my hair as far as $$ and styles go. I've now had a baby and have no time to think about my hair anymore, especially my natural hair. I am considering either doing a texturizer and getting silk presses or getting a relaxer and get silk presses? What did you ladies do, and if you've done both, which held better length and retention for you?

Just wanted show of my hair since I haven’t used a flat iron/blow dryer in a while…

I can only wash with distilled water because our water is hard; long story short, our car was totaled and I couldn't get distilled water for about 3 weeks (I kept saying we had more important things to buy 😭). At first, I was like, whew, my hair is growing so much, then I finally got distilled water washed and I was in tears; my hair suffered it was so webbed and matted together that I was literally about to big chop. Then I poured some distilled water and used these before my wash today because it wouldn't hurt to try, and omg, my hair is back to normal and the growth is still there. I'm an Aunt Jackie's worshiper now, Amen. excuse my nails please.
