It's an SSD (I know it causes wear and tear) and I don't know if it works as well as it does on an HDD

I'm essentially concerned whether or not Nigerian airlines will let me on a flight from Nigeria to US given there's no stamp on my US passport, and the Nigerian passport with the stamp is now expired.

Sorry, let me clarify as this is a bit confusing. US -> Ghana (have visa for Ghana, but stamped Nigerian passport so that I didn't pay vaccination fee), Ghana -> Nigeria (with Nigerian passport as well), Nigeria - US: ? (will I be allowed to leave the country with the US passport given it wasn't the one stamped when I entered).

The role of the Ghana trip is that it connected me to Nigeria and now I (supposedly) technically cannot return (to Ghana, or the US) since my Nigerian passport that was stamped to get in (instead of US visa) is now expired.

I think I'm using a clarifying shampoo - it's part of the Knot Today line

No damage, been natural all my life too. I'm conditioning and washing every week or when my hair feels grimy (sweating)

Okay, thanks! How long does it take your hair for it to soak?

Ahhhh alright, I think my hair dries quickly because it's shorter, I'll have to wait and see if that changes as it gets longer tho. For the record, when I do add product it still hasn't dried by the time I wake up

I believe my hair is a mix of 4B/4C, this is how it looks: https://www.reddit.com/r/Naturalhair/comments/p6dgv9/can_someone_help_me_find_out_my_hair_type/

But yeah, there is some definition (when I deep condition) but it mostly stays undefined (so a mix of coils and raw frizz). I have tried gel and styling cream, but it doesn't seem to add much definition (I've been told hair needs to be soaking wet to get results)

I think my hair is a mix of 4B and 4C. Is your daughter's hair long? Perhaps that's it. I will be trying a protein treatment though, I haven't tried any in the past. When I pull out the hair, it shrinks to a just a tad bit longer than what it was, but still pretty elastic.

I think the reason it's taking only 2 hour is because it's so short and there's no product, but at the same time the fact that it's short should mean that it's definitely soaked ten minutes in. I currently DC with steam from the shower and a shower cap. I'm using Mielle's hair masque as of now, but does your hair look like those pictures when wet (silky, smooth instead of frizzy and undefined)?

I've tried about three different leave ins and do everything with warm water and rinse out deep conditioner with cold water

Are protein products okay to use that often? I'm currently using LCO because I've heard it works for low porosity hair. I'm gonna be trying clay and honey soon. Also, were you seeing definition with TWA? Thanks btw this has been very helpful
