advice
14/f. African American.
so basically, my hair is very weak. and it's pretty short. it's about as long as the middle of my neck...but right now, it's in box-braids. i wanted to get extensions for my hair as my back-2-school look, but extensions damage my hair, whether it's sewned in, or glued.My mom thinks it's best for me to just leave in the box-braids, but i don't want to leave them in. I don't have a perm so, all i would do, is just straighten my hair, every 2 weeks.
so my question is, what do you think i should do??!! i want a cute back-2-school look, without damaging my hair.!!
THNX IN ADVANCE
I hear "Quick Weave" is best because it promotes hair groth. The reason why your hair is weak and short is because you are using WAY too much heat! All that straghtening will just burn off your hair, especially since you do it every 2 weeks. Quit that. Try wrapping your hair, but cross wrapping it or using your hands every night and brushing it only like once or twice a day because brushing frequently can thin out your hair. Make sure you grease your hair often with creams that promote growth and healthy hair such as Tea Tree Oil. Also, you might want to consider platting and/or threading your hair and try drinking a lot of water.
I hope I helped!
(Rating: 5) thanks. lots. but what is wrapping?? cross wrapping??!! i thought that was only for perming your hair! because i tried a perm..and it was NOT working out..do i have to go to a salon to get it done??!! i'm sorry, for all these questions!
