This is why I rarely try anything new and never let anyone else touch my hair and don't listen to anyone irl when they try to tell me anything.
I don't have time for a setback!

I wonder how damaging hair clips are if I remove them each night. I keep watching YouTube videos about how to make a high bun ponytail using hair clip extensions and I am obsessed and think that's going to be my new protective style. I just have to keep my eye out for any signs of damage.

WHY am I stuck at APL? Why? Why? Why?
It's easy as pie to make it to APL for me, but get pasting APL takes forever.

I want Marley twists as well. I'm worried about the Marley hair drying out my hair though.

Oh I'm also supposed to ask you ladies about a hair brush for his waves 
Did you guys notice that Diane's brand revamped? They no longer use the cursive Diane logo. He told me the brushes are crappy now & made of plastic instead of boar hairs

I know my brothers still find their boar bristle brushes at BSS and occasionally at Sally's. I think they've even lucked up at Walmart before but not often. They don't have a brand name though...or maybe they've rubbed the logos off by the time I see their brushes.

we have the lamest convos about hair products all the time! When I first went natural I used activator gel and he laughed at me. Now he asks me what kind he should use to get his curls popping. He's contemplating a curly for for the winter.Thank you ladies but I am not buying him a brush. So I'm not telling him anything. Cheap self didn't even wanna walk with me to the bus stop but asked me to carry him to Macy's.

My NG is as dry as the Sahara and as coarse as a 100 grade sand paper.

Mist your roots with warm water (to lift cuticles), apply your fave moisturizer and smooth them with the thickest oil/butter you got. If they're still dry after that, try clarifying and adding a little salt to your dc. Your hair just may be a bit "dehydrated".

I can't wait to cut the last of my damaged ends off (I got a bunch of mid-strand splits from the tangle teezer).
My hair is around tailbone length, but I rarely wear my hair outside of a bun or ponytail because of the tangling and knots. I think I have maybe 4-5 inches of damaged ends left. I've never cut so much of my own hair off at one time, but I don't really trust stylists to cut my hair for me anymore. So I've just been trimming it off an inch or two at a time.
But dealing with knots and tangling at my ends is really tempting me to just take some scissors and get on with it.

I just had the best wash day ever! My 4b natural hair slid the comb with ease, my hair felt soft yet strong, and I only had a few broken or shed hairs. I prepood with Alter Ego, rinsed and applied Nexxus Emergencee for 2 minutes. Then I shampood it with Keracare and did a 20 minute Dc with Silk Elements Mega Moisture treatment

Yes, but it takes time. This was my third time using it and the shedding was minimal. The first two times the shedding seemed normal. I was going to give up on Alter ego before today

SEMO, the tangle teezer did my hair dirty with splits.Yes, but it takes time. This was my third time using it and the shedding was minimal. The first two times the shedding seemed normal. I was going to give up on Alter ego before today
Prettymetty and MileHighDiva, I find alter ego to be immediately effective for my hair. Tea rinsing is what takes forever to kick in on my hair. I love AE garlic, it's just pricey...but it works.

I wanted to go to the local beauty supply and pick up a (second) pair of shears, handheld mirror, hair net, and a few other things but money goes in one hand and out the other these days
