MAJOR SET BACK.

Hey Ladies, I've had a MAJOR SET BACK. :(


I had two strands [kinky twists] and the girl used BEE'S WAX in my hair, and I had to detangle the hair which was MATTED up in each braid, causing me to lose A LOT of hair. :cry3:

It took everything in me not to just start CRYING.

My edges are also a MESS because she braided WAY too tight.

But with every DARK CLOUD there's a SILVER LINING.

I guess since I'm transitioning it doesn't make THAT BIG of a difference that that hair is gone since it was gonna be gone anyway. And I'm grazing APL :spinning: And my new growth is sooo gawjuss! I'm not gonna use heat on my hair until I get it back to health. Braid outs for me!


So TAKE MY ADVICE:
When getting braids, please don't let the braider use wax unless you're getting dreads and Don't get the edges done TOO TIGHT.

Wow, I'm so sorry this happened to you :(. However, your new growth is beautiful, and at least you're being optimistic about the situation. I'm sure you'll help your hair recover :)

I'm so sorry that happened to you. Great way of looking at the glass as half full! I get braids about once a year and found someone one doesn't braid tight especially around the edges.

Yeah, that is a lot of hair. But like you said, that hair will be gone later anyway. Keep taking care of your hair, you'll be okay.
