FoxyRoxy13, from what I remember, curlies had two complaints:
- They missed their curls after awhile (combing/preening dry hair tends to loosen curls).
- They did not produce enough sebum so, although the transition was fast, they needed to supplement with oil, even on the scalp sometimes.
In the archived thread, Speedbump was one of them. She may be able to give you some info... I think she had more luck with WO, and went back to it in the end (as far as I know).
proo, found it. Congrats on gaining length.
Good job for not rinsing. Patience is key.
GrowingGlory, until your sebum production calms down, you can get soft, shiny hair by combing with a super fine-toothed comb (after detangling thoroughly). It won't be "fluffly", but it will look nice in an updo, like this. HTH
TheBluffs, I did not notice any change in colour, but my hair is darker than yours (save for all the grey )... I can't help but notice people commented that your hair looked a different colour, not dirty...
As for an update, I slept with a crown braid to "air", well, the crown of my head overnight. I haven't taken it down yet so I don't know if it worked, but at least it was comfortable. It is much better than a few weeks ago, but I have to comb the back of my head very thoroughly whenever I wear a low bun, etc. because it looks more piecy than the rest of my hair...
