Eboni replied to FELECIA J. COLEMAN's discussion Moisturization"I think it depends on what your hair likes/your hair texture. For me (I have type 4 hair) I prefer to use creams because my hair responds best to those types of products. The moisture in my hair lasts longer with creams than liquids. Now that…"
I encountered my first perm at the age of 17, my sendior yr. in HS. I now regret ever starting to get them at all. I'm newly natural after transitioning for 5 mths. B/C August 29. 2011 with sensitive skin and allergies to Wheat & Yeast. It's been very difficult trying to find products that are Gluten or Wheat Free as sometimes ingredients aren't fully listed or may be sometimes hidden. Unfortunately this is what happened with my beautician and it broke my scalp out and damaged my hair. I also suffered a scalp burn from a relaxer. I'm hopeful that no permament damage has been done and look forward to having natural healthy hair again.
I enjoy cross stitch, scapbooking, music, travel, jewelry making and of course shopping! (LOL).

- Oh, you're welcome! Wigs are the best way to go. I had a bad experience with half wigs in the past, so I steer clear of them (my hair broke off severely because I kept the wig on for about a month and kept a section of my hair out to blend with it. This was before my healthy hair journey so I wasn't moisturizing or anything. Sometimes I was even sleeping in the wig. SMH). However, I went through my entire transition with kinky lacefront wigs. They were perfect because they allowed me to experience what it might be like to be natural while allowing my hair to grow without much manipulation. I transitioned from January 2010 to the end of November 2010 (a few days before Thanksgiving). After almost 11 months of transitioning, I had about 5 inches of healthy natural hair. I have been natural now for a little over 7 months and I am about to go shopping for a couple more lacefronts. The small twists and small box braids just take too long to put in and take out with my super thick hair. If you decide to go this route, do not use glue or tape on the lace because this will pull out your edges, which is why lacefront wigs get such a bad rap. They are usually snug enough where you don't have to glue or tape and if you feel like you need extra security, I bobby pin the sides down. Good luck!Delete Comment

I'm favorite excited about growing healthier hair but I must admit it hasn't been easy. I'm a little style challenged when it comes to my hair. Actually, I VERY challenged. I haven't much success but I'm going to keep trying.
