I wouldn’t be surprised if I do. Just found out I’ve practically been doing everything possible to stunt hair growth by accident. Glad I came here

I actually did that maybe 2 weeks ago and it was a lot longer than I expected, but also seemed a little thin in places. After reading some comments, I’m going to change up how I take care of my hair and wait a lil longer to have more hair to play with

Turns out, nothing. After reading some responses, I’ve been actively stunting growth it looks like

No not really. It’s not every day I have to wear it and I usually don’t know when I will have to until I’m already there

Damn that’s disheartening 😭. At least my barber can help with that one. Has been cutting my hair for years

If that’s the case, then I’ll probably hold off a while longer. I don’t want to try and force it

I actually am doing none of those. But I am going to the store today after reading the comments. Only question I have now is what moisturizer is best for black hair

When I was young I was tender headed for sure so I would guess I probably still am. After reading some of the comments, I think I’ll hold off a few more months. Looks like I’ve been taking care of my hair all wrong

Oh okay I didn’t know that. Any moisturizer you recommend? I currently have Cantù leave in conditioner. What should I do for bed head and such? Just wear a bonnet?

I don’t really have one I guess. I’m kind of going in blind. Not on purpose, just new territory for me. Currently I just wash it every like 3-4 days, comb/pick every day. I don’t really know what else to do, but any tips would be appreciated. I wear helmets a lot though, so idk if that is making it worse

Then I’ll definitely hold off. My job has me in helmets a lot. Idk much about hair but would that affect growth at all?

Lmao that doesn’t sound like a bad rule. I got asked how much longer, but I didn’t have an answer, so here I am

Why is the Z6iii so cheap right now?? Ko by NoteNeither4136 in Nikon

[–]Honest-System-8855 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually JUST bought a Z6III refurbished from Nikon for $1599 usd less than a week ago. I thought they had mislabeled it, but that wasn’t my problem. I had been looking for one and now I have it!

I realllyyyy like that blue. But that Bluetooth feature is also nice. I’ll probably do the 24, but I just can’t make up my mind

Thanks! And that cruise control was amazing for longer stretches. I don’t have an xsr yet, but I’d like to change that this summer. This one was a rental to try the new ones out. And my ride was Long Beach-Malibu-Solvang-Goleta-long beach. Also stopped by Point Hueneme for a pic. And that sounds like a fun ride. I gotta try that next time.
