I Think I Damaged My Hair
Alright so here's a little backstory before I ask my question.I became a natural about 2-4 years ago and I found out I was a type 4. Throughout the years I really struggled to find out my curl pattern and my porosity as my hair looks matted, dry, and overall damaged no matter what I do with it. Recently, I decided I wanted box braids to grow out my
Funky sour musty danky sticky loc scalp. You best get onto that before it gets out of hand. Not enough thorough cleansing of your scalp is going to cause this problem –but it's a mistake that can be fixed yourself, if you catch it early enough. I know I have written about scalp issues a lot. Like here, and here. But it's im...
Hi all,I had dreadlocks for 8 years, and just recently cut my hair. For the past few months I have been going to a barber to get my hair buzzed, but yesterday I cut, bleached and dyed my hair myself....Well let me tell ya..I ended up having to cut ALL my hair completely off because the color came out wrong (like now I have none what so ever), but m

Fractured -- that term came to mind because of all the splits into tribal factions on Facebook and other platforms. Maybe it's more diluted than fractured - or maybe a combo of both. Everything changes and evolves, sometime...
First, I need to explain what I mean by this term. It's not a medical term – nor something I found on the internet. Congested Scalp and Hair (CSH) is a condition I have found that happens with my own natural hair, and can cause all types of problems. But it can be reversed and prevented if you know how to do it. Remember back in the days of Bl...
Hi! Has anyone used Olaplex for their colored sisterlocks? I recently got my sisterlocks colored (locked 4 years in July). I went to a colorist and because I wanted blonde she lifted my hair. It’s been hard and I lost half of a few soldiers in the front, thankfully not from the root. The colorist told me to use Olaplex weekly but I don’t wash my ha
