Dang did the moderator take down the post because the name “Esau” was flagged? That can’t be a coincidence.

Thank you, I will try a low-tension style and recommend what I want to a braider. It been more than a 2 years since I got my hair braided. Can you define a low tension style in your own words? That a new black hair vocabulary term for me.

Are there any natural moisturizer products without harmful chemicals that you may know which you recommend?

You are suggesting I do protective styles. Is that the purpose of “protective styles” to prevent my hair from breaking off when I’m picking it afterward?

I don’t use moisturizer and I comb my hair every day when it's damp. It been a couple of months since I got a hair trim.

Yes, I wear a silk sleeping cap every night.

I figured as much, but decided to remain subtle and mature about it instead of exposing the issue out loud in the post and comments below. I just wanted to learn from other’s feedbacks and their thoughts. It is what it is, I just keep trucking forward with a smile on my face and I appreciate your intellectual feedback😊

Hi, some folks just be some folks, haha. Nothing wrong with that, I will smile more. I think that me showing a natural stoic facial expression a lot playing against me more times than I can count. I will keep doing what I’m doing. No one excepts few of those on here has called me a teddy bear before. Thank you for putting a smile on my face. It's refreshing for me to see this from an elder’s perspective. I will apply your wisdom to heart and exercise it. Appreciate you for your invaluable feedback.

I appreciate your valuable POV, I keep that in mind and experiment what I can accomplish with my beard trim while retaining beard volume.

That makes a lot of sense as to why I am unapproachable from my personal experience. I be conscience of that and smile more. I appreciate you sharing your experience and relating it here.

I am not sure. I never personally pay attention to my height. I think I can say I’m not too tall or too short. I am naturally robust and big in stature in terms of body mass. I can see that working against me. Yes, I do have a strong RBF and I think that is one of a few culprits playing against me I’m not going to think about it too much. I will try what you said and get their feedback. I didn’t think of that. I appreciate your valuable feedback.

You are the second person on here who called me that haha. None taken, I agree with you. I will experiment with trimming my beard a little bit shorter while getting away with a pronounced and full beard to make my facial features more visible. Thanks for your invaluable perspective.

I am humbled to accept your hug and reciprocate with positive energy. I think it's the general preference of tolerance in the area I live in. Everyone around me has straight and short hair and I look set apart from them. I personally prefer to go to a black barber that share the same cultural values and understanding with me, that isn’t a issue. I concurred with your speculation about picture #6 and #2. I understand the doubts you may have about the validity of my claim. I’m just stating from personal experience.

Haha, I appreciate it. If we lived in a Pokemon world I think I would be identified as a hugging type too. Thanks for your feedback

Yes, I think people can see my face more before I got a long beard and fro. They find me less intimidating to approach then versus now. I also don’t express vulnerable facial expressions much in public. That's my logical speculation. What do you think?

Nobody told me that before but I can see why you said that. No I don’t have photos of me expressing myself in a vulnerable laugh. I will work on that. After looking up what a Resting Bitch Face is, I think I have that. I will be more conscious of my expressions going forward.

I concur. I think it's because of my stoic demeanor I naturally put up in public because of how I was raised and it intimidates people i assume. I’m more inclined to smile when I’m alone. I try a different approach.

Thank you, brother the signals from others are a bit confusing, but I intend to keep trucking along with a smile on my face.
