Does it burn? Because I hear that a lot about lye and idk y my scalp feels prone to burn right now if that makes sense lol

Generally it doesn't. I got burned at my last T/U but that was due to me vigorously brushing my edges the day before and deciding at the last minute to get a touch up the next day....and I didn't base either
Just make sure you base your scalp thoroughly...you should not burn if you do.

Thanks! I'm about to go to the salon and have it done

@sckri23 - Welcome, and yes, we all have to start somewhere! Please take pics so you can track the progress you are about to make!
For the record, here's a pic of my hair pre-LHCF when it finally started to get some "length":
You can do it!!!
sunnieb I so second that! I've been here for years, but I'm just now really into taking pics to document progress. Before I would just take some pics just cause or for the moment, but if you're really on a journey, pics do wonders in showing you progress that you didn't know was there

itismehmmkay - I know! I was seemingly stuck at APL for almost 2 years. However, looking through the hundreds
look of hair pics I have, my hair was getting thicker and healthier the entire time! Sent from my Comet using LHCF
I used too much shampoo the other day.. Usually I'll follow up with two different conditioners to balance it out but I was short on time and stuck with one.
My hair still had that post-wash poofy feel the next day so I tried the CHI Ionic Color Protector Leave-In Treatment Masque I got on clearance at Marshall's. And let me tell you.. that stuff was like an instant luxury spa treatment for my hair, instant smoothing and silkiness. It's got like 10 different 'cones, and ingredients I've never heard of but if this isnt' the Cadillac of 'cone mixtures
.... I'm assuming I need to use it sparingly but now I know what to use when my need my hair to act right.

Worst Dominican salon experience ever!! Unlike other women that sit through the torture & cry about the set back at the end...I got my happy behind up in the middle of a wash dripping wet w/ shampoo still on my head and said IM STRAIGHT, put my hat on and walked right out! I was a tangled mess! Their shampoo stripped all the moisture! I felt her try to comb from my roots to tip while washing and jumped out the chair so fast! I only needed to feel that one time to know a major disaster was coming my way if I let that continue. Went home & finished my own wash & set w/ no set backs. Didn't pay a single thing.

ETA: And some titanium ovaries to actually get up and leave

pre_medicalrulz Good for you! Wish I had had the guts to get up and leave back in my salon days. I literally cringed reading that they tried to comb through your hair during the shampoo process. What. the. ever-loving.... glad you and your strands made it out unscathed.

Hello ladies. I think I made it through the process of the sisterhood. I'm 3 hours post lol..I'm soo happy. It will take some getting use to but I'm happy.
Wooww.. well of course we want to see pics GoddessMaker
. Enjoy your hair! I'm sure it'll be lots of fun..
Remember to take it easy and start with the basics, no need to go crazy with a ton of products and random techniques in the early stages.

Ok this is my hair so far..I did a dry wrap and will see how it comes out in the morning. If it doesn't have any bump to it I will just do a high bun or something..I'm happy either way..
