Hi!!!!:) First of all I just wanted to introduce myself since I finally stopped lurking around here.;) I have been lurking for about a year and have learned so much about how to take care of my hair,what works for me and what doesn't.
I initially started growing my hair last December as a promise to my husband to not cut while he was gone. I am a notorious emotional hair cutter.Then during my pregnancy it turned into a health obsession! I religiously cassia-ed,henna-ed,deep conditioned,etc. My hair started out very damaged (the result of an unfortunate bleaching) and very short. It is now around my shoulder blades and very healthy.
My only problem right now is that with the winter and a few months after having a baby my hair is shedding and totally out of whack. Im not too worried about the shedding since I have alot to spare but my my routine is not working for me anymore.
I used to CO but with the hormones it is suuuuper greasy on the roots and dry on the ends now. I still try to stretch washings by wearing it in braids or up and I have given up the blowdryer.
Okay sorry for righting a novel but mostly I just wanted to say this site is amazing and I am so glad I finally became a member!!!
