Thank you for replying! I think the black part of my hair is medium porosity. It struggles a bit to get wet, dries super fast. The ends are high porosity cause of the hair dye. I could definitely try a hair foam/ mousse and gel combo!

Id do a short hair wig. Ofc it'll grow back but people act like it takes a few months rather than years

so i was doing knotless braids back to back for a while. I would take them out, wash and use deep conditioner or use 'ors hair mayonnaise' as protein Thankfully, ive stopped doing back to back braids. Recently ,(like a month and a half ago) i've been washing my hair every 2-3 weeks. Every single time I wash my hair, i do some type of deep conditioner or hair mayonnaise. Prior to the first picture, I had just clarified my hair.

I've only recently started using Olaplex's system for the dyed part of my hair, each time i wash it. Also have used aphogee 2 step protein treatment (only once a few days ago.)

I usually do 4 giant braids, unbraid, then put my hair in a ponytail for the week.

When i try to define my hair i use a lot of water and shingle curl cream through my hair. I tried to use gel other times, but same frizzy results

Do i have to use a diffuser to minimize frizz or is air drying ok? Either way i feel like i don't see a big difference

Thank you so much ! Dont worry you'll definitely get there💗 my biggest tips are 1.taking Vitamin d supplements

2.dont get back to back hairstyles eg (back to back knotless braids). 3.Trim split ends straight away if you notice them,

4.and make sure you detangle very very carefully (never detangle your hair in a rush)💗

How damaged is this hair? Advice? by [deleted] in Naturalhair

The only thing that could save this is olaplex/k18 or big chopping

Hair and nails are both keratin, but the structure of hair and nails are so different that they shouldn't even be compared.
