POLL: So....How Did You Find Out About LHCF?
- Thread starter gorgeous86
- Start date
That's how I find here too. I was surfing looking for something about hair care and came upon Blackhair, then someone must have recommended LHCF as another hair site. I never joined Blackhair and I lurked for years on LHCF before actually joining. I guess it was because I wasn't familiar with sites like these therefore I lurked in order to get more comfortable with the site before joining. I rarely visit Blackhair anymore because I have enough over here to keep me busy..

I found BHM, Fotki, and LHCF on the same day. I just came out of a sew in weave and had no idea what to do with my hair. I googled some combination of "long healthy black hair" and hit the jackpot. I was more active on BHM but decided to pay for LHCF. Been posting regularly ever since.

Longdayinthepark...how did your friend deal with her/his alopecia?? I have a friend whose son has it right now. Would love to recommend some "natural" remedies for them.
She ended up getting cortizone shots. Soon after her hair grew like weeds.

We belonged to another site back in 2000 or thereabout - longhairlovers or something and the white women were unkind and unhelpful so Beverly was gracious enough to create this site just for us.
This is how I started here.

Really? I had no idea. It's good to learn about the history of this wonderful site

I first came across this site about two years ago when my hair fell out due to postpartum hormones and all. I naively thought this site was only for those who had long hair already, like a secret club or something.
Fastforward a couple of years later, I knew nothing about taking care of natural hair (my dd's hair) since I have always been a "perm head." Plus I at the time my hair was fried, dyed, and literally laid to the side and I was wondering what was wrong with it? Shoot, ev'tang was wrong. Everything I used, everything I did, I don't wanna go there.
So I googled healthy hair care and here you go. The rest is history.

I decided that my relaxed hair was too dry and breaking too much so I started looking for sites that could help me with that. I was also looking to grow it longer. That got me started on blogs like mane and chic and then fotkis and then i was a lurker here for a while before I decided to join.
Now I'm not even that concerned with relaxed hair because I fell in love with the idea of being able to have my natural hair out and about. I'm just about to start my 9th month of transitioning and if I hadn't come on this site I'd still believe that my hair was too hard, thick and unmanageable to keep natural

I went on youtube and searched for how to wrap hair. That led me to a girl named Lorraine who is black and has long hair. She had all these tips about how she cared for her hair. It made me realize that I can have my long hair back the way it was when I was a child. Then I kept finding more and more black women like Traycee with KISS who has long hair and is relaxed. From there I kept watching more videos until someone mentioned this site in their comments. I think I have logged in everyday since I subscribed.

I found out about LHCF from being on Cathy Howse web site. A poster had mentioned LHCF in her question to Cathy.

I found out about LHCF through BHM. I would always see the letter LHCF mentioned in posts whether bad or good and always wondered what LHCF stood for. When I found out it was the most valuable information I could have found on the internet, I wish often that I would have taken more interest in my hair years ago, if I had known about this site years back I know I would have
