What has been your experience on LHCF? postive, lots of helpful info, it's really alot more than info about hair here.
What makes this website different from other hair sites? I only visited a few, it seems we have more of a mix here. Some sites target certain hair types, for example we have people that may have been relaxed at one point and are now natural, but can still offer there advice from past experiences and vice versa.
 
OP, is this for a statistics class? If so, how are you going to gather the data if everyone's answer is different?

What has been your experience on LHCF? Very positive. I have learned so much about hair care and I get a ton of entertainment from here. People here are so friendly and helpful. Every now and then there is drama, but we are all mature enough to deal with it and move along. We can all relate to each others stories which makes it easy to communicate and hear each other.
What makes this website different from other hair sites? People will help and remain positive no matter what your hair status is and no matter what struggles you are going through with your hair. No body will criticize the choices others make, but they will help people make informed choices

What has been your experience on LHCF? For the most part - it has been positive. However, I do not post as often any longer due to occasional tensions with a small number of members, studies, and personal time constraints. I have decided to limit my posting to vacation times.


What makes this website different from other hair sites?

Well, it seems that the subscription for LCHF makes all the difference between this site and other free sites. I left another hair site, because I felt a great amount of negative energy regarding natural hair, and organic hair methods. In addtion, other sites had outside forums that I felt were offensive and problematic for my family computer use.

What has been your experience on LHCF? Positive. Sistas are ready and willing to help each other out. It takes time to learn what is best for your hair, but it's all here for you to try and see if it works for you.

What makes this website different from other hair sites? Well because we pay to be members, we get a lot of perks. The search feature rocks, the fact that you can hide your fotki from non-members, we have no major drama, the long haired sistas tend to stick around once they reach their goals and help pull up the rest of us. So, real dedication.

Our English professor wants us to play a culture expert and analyze on-line communities. The paper will give insight on the online communites in such a way to explain to someone else its purpose. I have to answer the question why do people find LHCF so interesting, and LHCF's effects on people's lives. I don't know if I answered the question well enough, but I hope I did. Thank you for welcoming me and replying.

How interesting! And I am an HBCU alumni and in grad school at Howard, so I am happy to help!

What has been your experience on LHCF? Very positive. Everyone is helpful and I have learned more about hair care in a few months than I did for many years. But, sometimes, you have to be careful not to offend b/c hair is a sensitive subject.

What makes this website different from other hair sites?
The focus is on HEALTHY hair, whether it's natural/relaxed/ weaved up/ or whatever. From my experience so far, people are not judgmental.

What has been your experience on LHCF? My experience here on LHCF has been informative to say the least. When I first started it was all about hair b/c I was experiencing hair breakage/ shedding. I did a lot of lurking and found myself becoming a PJ so I took control absorbed the most valuable information that worked for my hair and stuck w/ it.

What makes this website different from other hair sites? The vast majority of cultures, ideals, and races which participate in the forums. A few of the other hair forums I'm a member of are less balanced either racially or perspectively.
