So Jewell you are no longer transitioning?
I am glad you brought this up, because I was how was the daily CW working out for you, if this helping with achieving more new growth?
Nope not transitioning anymore. That was my 3rd attempt and my hair began to form a small loc in the back eventhough I was combing it out from the roots every couple days. It was SO hard to comb!!!!
I tried WGHO, grease, daily washing, and nothing made the dry combout easier. Then I began to get tenderheaded and it was horrible...not to mention my hair looked a mess and it was nearly impossible to style it besides braidouts and bantu knot sets, where I had to wash everyday and spend 20-30 mins detangling.
I had more shedding too. So, I slapped a relaxer in it and decided it ain't for me! Oh how I admire natural hair though!
Mine is just hell to deal with!
When I was doing the daily washes it helped with the manageability of my new growth but the hassel to detangle was not worth it after every single wash. Now that I don't have the briar patch anymore, it helps with keeping my hair moisturized and shiny. My hair is really feeling kind of dry by the time my poor little once a week wash rolls around. So, I am thinkin of going back to daily washing and I have and will be bunning during the week and wearing it out on the weekends (gotta let it hang on the weekends
) until I reach my goal length.
