Oh yes, I've read that. Trying to keep my pillowcase clean, I used to sleep on a terrycloth towel. I found out all about oiled hair and dust/lint. My comb in the mornings used to be gray, the same color as the towel

I think there’s a brand of hair color products called ISO - referring most likely to how color responds to light /methods of assessing the spectral qualities of color (eg, when using a manual camera you set your ISO based on the lighting conditions).

Why do I have lots of broken ends (at 90 degrees) and not split ends? Does this say anything about my hair?

If they don't snap off, aka there is no "weak" point or white dot, chances are that's just styling. If you don't snip it off, leave it (why not) then it will sort itself out the next wash; promise!

There is a white dot and they break, so they are really broken. Why is this? Why doesnt my hair split but break off? Usually it's between 0,5 to 1 cm that it breaks, sometimes 4 cm

LOL do you, perhaps, use a "brush" on your hair?

No I stopped brushing when I joined the LHC, went on with a wooden comb but since 6 months been only fingercombing because I need very gentle combing.

Hi, I have a pretty dumb question, but I can't seem to figure it out. How do you rope braid? No matter how I twist my hair, I just doesn't work. I'm positive whatever I'm doing is completely wrong, but can't figure it out for the life of me!
