    Default Starting from scratch! Kinda.

    Hello everyone.

    I used to have waist-length hair, cut it up to my ears twice, grew it back to just past my shoulders. I recently chopped off the relaxed hair and have about 3" of texturized hair that I'm trying to grow to about mid-back.

    I'm enjoying everything I've learned about taking care of my hair. I've never had much of a strategy and realise now I was seriously abusing my hair. So, I'm trying to go cone/paraben/sls-free to see what my hair likes and have a very simple, minimalist process at the moment. Looking forward to learning and sharing with everyone!

    Thanks for the welcoming words, everyone. I've already spent a lot of time reading up on the tips shared here and am really looking forward to trying out some of the stuff I've learned.

    It's so exciting to start from scratch, you have beautiful healthy hair to get started with & know you'll know how to keep it that way ! I did the same thing - a huge chop a couple months ago, to remove old dyes/damage/straightened/tortured hair hehe. The first few months your hair will feel like it's growing SO fast, enjoy it!
