Sorry a long one!
I am getting married in August 2014 and would like to get myself in tip top shape. I have got my fitness regime in place and now I would like to work on my hair.
I have had a very long standing struggle with my hair where I have major problems with breakage. It seems I have fine, soft hair (according to the hairdresser) which is very easily prone to breaking. I have often wondered if it is related to my eczema??
I have tried most regimes and products over the years, and while my hair is soft, it will not retain length.
So I have decided on having my hair (all natural and about 8 inches long) in a side bun made with an extension piece. What I would like to also have is a sweeping side fringe, which I am hoping to achieve with twist extentions , since I have a round face.
Also I have two weak points at the front of my hair, just where you would have a parting (receeding areas) which I am working to fill in with JBCO. I have had these since my teens.
Ideally I would like to achieve the hairstyle without extensions, so if anyone could give me any tips, you tube, blogs on how to do so, that would be fantastic Also if anyone just put extensions in one part of their hair, I would like to hear about that.
My current regime is a weekly condition wash with Beautiful Textures Deep Conditioner, mixed with an oil (normally olive or JBCO). Air dried in twists with a creamy leave in conditioner, once dried, styled into 2 strand twists. Daily moisturising with a water based spray and leave in conditioner. Also the JBCO for the hairline. At night I sleep on satin pillowcases. My twists stay in the for the week until next wash day.
Thanks for all your help
