Hi Ladies,
I am a slow grower also.
Hair type: 4b
Long hair as a child: No, SL, APL with a curl lol
Some issues : wearing too tight braids, & weaves, over processed relaxers. All styling was done by licensed stylists
I have been on my journey since 2012 when I had my relaxed ends cut off. However, notice that I had a lot of breaking and shedding from braids and weaves. Did not have a good or consistent regimen
Hair damaged at beginning of journey: Yes
How will I turn it around: I am starting a new HHJ with Breon of Reniece and Co. She trimmed my hair this month and will braid it next month. I plan to exercise regularly, take a multivitamin and drink more water. I will be using Njoy's hair oil. I am currently NL, hoping to graze APL by the end of 2016.
