Shikakai powder is the truth. This a damn lie. That stuff got into my eyes three damn times during one wash session. I felt like cyclops from x-men when he took off his visor. My eyes were on fire!!!! And my hair was super dry and required a super moisturizing DC after that mess.

LHCF Was Wrong When They Said... that natural products cannot cause product build up.

LHCF was wrong when they said......you only need your fingers to detangle your hair. I tried that for a month and was left with a tangeled mess..

Yeah you see this finger detangling mess reminds me of the kiimmaytube with her spending the whole day detangling with a needle
They can keep it!! "Throws the middle finger up"

Co-signing on that shea moisture mess. I've had my curl enhancing smoothie for about 6 months & I only use it as hair perfume. I will not buy it again... junk has no slip, but it shol smells good.
I also don't use a leave in condish unless I'm straightening my hair. That Aussie moist does it all for me.
& idk wth is wrong with whoever said VO5 is the shiznat. Junk had my hair EXTRA dry. #NoSlipAtAll... NO.SAA

Sitrinillah does not do anything for me. Will not repurchase (dodges rocks), co washing hair in braids and not detangling means losing a grapefruit sized ball of hair. LadyP method, worked great for Lady P. Bless her heart. I lost a lock of hair from the root. Discontinued participation in the Lady P challenge. Circle method,No.

Interesting thread. I've ben a member since this board was created but I take every review with a grain of salt and don't expect everything to work for me.
All of the products in my rotation have come from recommendations that I've found here. I have other products in the graveyard that didn't work out at all like the Kinky Curly line, Shea Moisture Leave In, etc.

Cosigning! I had like, 3 locks in my hair by the end of the second week.
I brought into that lie and paid dearly, along with
-Not needing to trim to keep your ends healthy.
-Cowashing ONLY.
-Not using shampoo. This was the worst for me because come to find out, my scalp LOVES to be shampooed and cleaned. Without washing my scalp often my hair sheds by the handful.

I must be the only person that likes Shea Moisture. Please PM me and I will send you my address so you can send me your products LOL
ETA: The BKT threads were plentiful about a year ago. I am sorry for all of the ladies that experienced set backs doing this. I was warned not to BKT and once in a while I'm tempted, then read about the set backs and I say nuh uh let me just deal with the shrinkage.

Yes, to cowashing only and either ditching shampoo or low shampooing. Ugh! My scalp does enjoy a shampooing and I'm changing it to weekly as opposed to lesser time.

LHCF was RIGHT when this thread was created, LAWD HAMMERCY! My mediocre day just got better from reading this thread alone.
Co-signing on the tangle teaser/denman brush for detangling.

tangle teaser just never looked right to me....so glad i didn't even bother
Well I've been a member for a long time and I have no hard feelings...plus my hair is long enough for me and I know how to keep it that way because of LHCF.
So here goes...
They said MTG would make my hair grow like 1 inch a month, but instead it gave me vivid dreams and headaches. I was darn near hallucinating before I realized that it was the new product that I just had to try. Had me up in a horse nursery searching for that sucka and almost in the crazy bin. (It wasn't really THAT bad, but it was pretty bad).
Someone said MSM was the truth! Lies! Bless the prophet - all lies! I ended up on an 10 day period when my time of the month was normally 3 days and my hair certainly didn't grow in silkier or faster...in fact I darn near had anemia that month because of that durn 2 week long period!
Someone said Hello Hydration gave incredible slip. I spent my little $2 and almost ended up cutting off my hair. I mean what type of conditioner causes the hair to feel hard while it's still wet and then when I reported back that I didn't like it and had tangles and what not...I think I was told that I applied it wrong.
Someone said that overtrimming was the cause of less length retention. So I tried to stop trimming as often and my ends split up the shaft until I had to cut like 5 inches. Major setback!
Someone said Bigen would get rid of my pesky grays and it did...but it also turned my bangs into what looked like dreds/French fries/highly textured - uncombable - breaking madness. My bangs were about two inches short for SIX months. (I kid, I kid, but they were short after that breakage).
Oh and wait, wait what was the name of that stuff we used to spray on our scalp - oh yeah SURGE! Did anyone else buy surge and experience burning and whatnot on their scalp? I can't be the only one.
But I triumphed over the bandwagon hopping and my hair loves me for it. I can't list the pages of GOOD advice that I received - that's how much LHCF has helped me (a whole lot)!

MMhmmm LHFC lied to me too. I see some things going on now that I think gonna be in this list.
Future lie? I think inversion is a lie. If I had to hang upside down and do a rain dance for my hair to grow I would be bald.
Joico and Kenra was made from the tears of baby unicorns. I HATE both these products. I invested a lot of money to buy full sets that only dried my hair out.
Egg is a good protein. My hair was a dry tangled matted mess. End result one huge dredlock and a thousand tears.
DreamHair BKT. Oh my hair was so shiny and straight. It swang and blew in the wind. It was silk soft. When it wore off I saw the damage. Splits mid shaft and down. White bubbles from heat damage. Dryness.

I can't remember if someone actually said so, but it is usually implied.
Some posters make it seem like silicone and petroleum are the only ingredients that can cause build up and that is simply not true.

- No trimming is the way to go. For a while, I only trimmed like once a year. Some time over those years of my lack of trims, my nape hair disappeared into the ether, causing my crown to be BSL but the back was barely APL and it just looked super uneven. I am now trimming at least 2x per year, along with dusting in between touch ups.
