I'm noticing an interesting trend on LHCF lately; "controversial" debates over certain methods, perceptions of what it means to be "natural", whether hair "typing" is necessary etc etc.... The "Healthy Hair Police" are in full effect! I'll be DAMNED if someone perceives my method of caring for my hair as "not up to par with LHCF/ haircare board standards". Who determines these laws? Are we taking each others HHJ's too personally?
I think we can all agree on a few core principles that constitute healthy haircare practices but people seem to get angry if someone speaks up about a product/technique that everyone seems to LOVE that did not work for them, likes or dislike henna, uses a blow dryer, uses a comb to detangle, relaxes bone straight, uses shampoo, doesn't baggy, I could go on and on......
I take much better care of my hair since joining LHCF, but I notice a lot of extremism around these parts lately....
ETA: I feel like this creates an environment that discourages some people from posting about methods/products that work well for them.
