Hi Mahalialee4,
Thank you for the compliment. My hair was bra strap length over the summer and I had a bad bout with the braids (it chewed my hair something terrible, my hair was lifeless). I cut 3 inches. Then I cut two more, so I ended up back at shoulder length again. Yes, my hair is too thick. I have to press my hair in very small sections, but the curling iron is really starting to do a good job along with the products.
My Aunt has waist length hair. My mother does her hair by washing with Prell shampoo every 10 days, conditioning with Queen Helene Cholesteral Conditioner and then she blow dries and presses my aunt hair. If I was in Chicago, my mom would be doing my hair also but since I am in Texas I have to do it myself. /images/graemlins/frown.gif
My mother has the most beautiful hair I have ever seen. It's like baby hair really curly but she hates it. Her hair is down her back and she really doesn't do anything special. She always use to tell me that my hair works better with the caucasion shampoos oppose to the black hair care products. She said Jerimack worked wonders on my hair (still trying to find it).
