Hi. I've just stumbled upon this forum from another that I fequent (hennatribe). I've got mid to dark brown just below shoulder length hair. I've got some greys that like to poke up at unreasonable angles :P
I do very little with my hair. Its mostly long because i can't be bothered cutting it. Before child #2 and #3 I used to cut it myself, but i just don't have the time or inclination any more. I went through a stage when it was just below my shoulders where I couldn't stand it and was going to get it cut but just didn't get around to it. Now that it's longer, I like it again. We are friends now :D
I have no idea what all the terms mean in the profile, so if someone could direct me? My hair is a little more than fine, pretty thick and most of it is healthy. Bit of wave in humid weather, almost dead straight when the weather is very dry.
I wash it when it seems a bit dull, which i figure is around every 4 days or so? depends on hormones though. I hardly brush it, ever. I usually comb it when its wet and leave it at that. It doesn't really tangle much.
Because I have thick fine hair. there's a lot of the suckers. So I look like i'm going bald every time i wash it as I loose so much as it is drying. Especially now that its longer, makes it look like so much more! I know that if i brushed it I would get rid of them in smaller lots, rather than big wads (yuk)
I don't usually condition when I wash, sometimes use a leave in conditioner if I have time.
geeze, this is getting long! I've never rambled on about my hair so much before :D
So I would like to start being nice to my hair, since we are friends now but don't really know where to start.
