What should moisturize hair look and feel like? I know this is not it on my head. Back in June I cut my BSL hair completely off due to getting micro twist for the first time. After getting them out (myself & daughter) I proceeded to wash it, which I later found out was a big no no. Later found out that your suppose to detangle & comb your hair out before wetting it. Well it was a "hot mess". Water locked & matted it as if I had dreadlocks .No amount of conditioner or anything would straighten it out. So the next day I went to salon and cosmetologist just looked at me in this manner undercover & staying professional about it.Like "girl what have you done to your head". She said "you're going to have to cut it all off and start over because I had long & short everywhere". So I went on to the b-b shop and cut it all the way down. Fast-forward to now my goal is to grow wl or tbl hair. I am 4 a/b with a little bit of c texture in the back. Here's the thing I have very thick hair and I cannot get it to stay moisturized. Today I tried the LOC method. It still looks dry. These are adjectives to describe what it feels and looks like. Dry, crunchy, and soft. If I put my hands in it, it's like the oil is just sitting on top and not penetrating because its on my hands. Just as if I've touched a piece of greasy fried chicken. I'm sorry, but this is the only way I can describe it. It's all in good humor even though I feel so uncomfortable & unattractive w/o my long hair. I started in June and now at about 3 inches of growth. That's all.
