Hey everyone!
I am completely new to all of this... so new, in fact, that I don't have a good idea of what kind of info to include in this intro.
I guess I'll just tell yall everything I can think of that has to do with my hair? I have been natural for just over ten years. I have never known how to do a darn thing with my hair, so I am the one who's always in ponytails and such. I am definitely a minimalist as far as hair care goes. I saw the thread a bit ago about what 5 hair care products you couldn't live without and I had to think if I even had 5 total. Um, yeah.
So, I rinse/condition my hair every time I shower (working back up to a once/day shower...i'm a new mother, lol) and brush it with the conditioner in it with one of those plastic brushes with the wide bristles with the little balls on the ends. Then I usually put it in two braids and go. Lately I have been putting some sweet almond oil or ev olive oil on it since it's sooooo dry this time of year...
I am not sure what my hair type is. I looked at the little description and came up with 3, but didn't get any further than that. I don't know exactly how yall are measuring your hair, but from the top of my head to where my hair falls is about 23".
Don't know what else to say .... except that I am glad to be here to soak up all the knowledge yall lovely ladies have aquired!! This board is so inspiring!
Be well,
