I would say your hair looks a bit tighter than 3a. Also, 3a tends to be fine. What texture is your hair?

Aw, what a little dumpling. :love5:

It's really for your pleasure at this point, because your little one probably doesn't care either way. I didn't care about what my hair looked like until...

I really think that these people are reflecting their own ideals completely not connected to other aspects of what you look like. For example with my breasts (I get a lot of comments from other women...

Oh I experienced just about the same thing. I was only a month into it, but my strands were easily over-moisturized and broke off much easier (think of how much easier hair breaks when it is wet). My...

Smile That's a lot like my routine.

You may want to stick to relaxed hair, but I would *really* recommend going natural. There have been ladies who have grown relaxed hair really long, but many find it easier when at their natural...

Exclamation Hiya

I am actually drinking a protein drink right now. I have one about once week because I don't eat a lot of animal products and I'm trying to put on muscle mass.

As for hair growth, I think if you...

My hair tends to react pretty good to protein. It gets so bouncy.

Talking Henna Revived My Curls!

My hair has been giving me a talk every time I get out of the shower. It says, "Thank you for co-washing me, but I'm still mad that you tried to lighten my color last month. So I'm just going to go...

Oh, now I know whatcha mean! Lol, sorry. In theory, I think that's right. People have been using herbs to grow their hair faster for centuries, and they have lots of antifungal properties.

Smile I finally figured out a way to drink these.

After my soccer practice this morning, I held my nose and gulped some down. :tongue7: I could still taste the berry flavor, but the bitter ick was gone. It's an old trick and a little uncomfortable,...

Well, I know that just applying coconut oil to the hair weighs it down because of the oil. If I put enough of it in, it will straighten my hair (although it appears greasy). Once I co-wash it out...

Well, judging by the other responses, it seems to be fairly normal. I wear my hair combed-out wavy a lot of back in a headband because it is too short to curl now. Without help, it could pass for...

I have not had luck with perms.

I once got a perm in an attempt to get my 3a hair to corkscrew curls.

It failed, and left my hair extremely damaged. I also had a friend with straight hair who got a perm, professionally done,...

Henna always made my hair feel thick and strong after using it. It's a very lovely feeling. The first two times I did it was on virgin hair. The first application turned my hair a super flaming...
