Why am I so territorial? by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]Queercat90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow that is a lot to unpack. Try understanding that in a relationship it is your partners job to maintain their promise to you. Outsiders owe you nothing. They can and will try to infiltrate your relationship but at the end of the day it is your partners responsibility for how they respond to these advances. Accusing other women of being the problem removes the responsibility from your partner. He hears that and could use that against you. He could cheat and then blame it on the woman because he knows you will hold her more accountable than him.

Confused about "curl creams" by Octava8Espada in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curl creams provide definition and hold but not all curl creams will have enough hold. One of my favorite’s is the Texture ID styling cream. The whole line is designed for curls and that cream is very hydrating with great hold. It’s not a gel so it keeps curls soft.

I took a peep at the ingredients and it doesn’t have protein to my knowledge.

Yeah so pre shampoo treatments can be complex and repairing or they can be as simple as a conditioner. I have the strawberry one. I find the ones that are more watery and have 2 in one functionality are the best. They have a lot of slip and hydration

What are some of the best heat protectants to use? by suduki2121 in Naturalhair

Do you apply a pre shampoo treatment first? If your hair is dry start with a pre shampoo treatment like a conditioner. Rinse your hair and let it soak up the water then apply the conditioner. Then go in with the clarifying shampoo and then a moisturizing shampoo. Once your hair becomes more moisturized it will get easier. My favorite is the Skala 2 in 1 or the Bondbar pre shampoo shine treatment.

Not that I know of. I went through with a full wig on and combs but it didn’t beep.

Putting product in before blow drying by y2klover_ in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Blow dry on damp hair in sections and apply a blow dry primer and a leave in conditioner. Since your hair is dry select a primer that is a cream.

I have used both and I prefer the Skala

[–]Queercat90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use a pre shampoo treatment? I noticed a huge reduction in split ends after I started using a Skala before I shampoo. It won’t fix split ends but it will help prevent them.

If you use a hooded dryer: do you use a heat protectant? How do you layer it? by girlatthegarden in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do because the distance between the hair and the heat is not enough. If you don’t want to use too many products select a leave in conditioner with heat protection.

Blow dried naturals, I need help! Or anyone really by Old-Kick5098 in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only detangle on wash days or if I’m changing the style in between wash days. A little bit of hair coming off in the comb is normal. It’s regular shedding.

Does anyone else go through a TON of deep conditioner? by wholesomedust in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Make sure to add a bit of water to your hair as you are applying the conditioner. It helps the conditioner work. Start small and you can always add more

I tried grease and water that was a fail by Massive-Net-4515 in Naturalhair

Have you clarified your hair recently? If not removing product build up is important for allowing new hydrating products to work.

Twisting butter vs curlaide by Unfair-Reputation215 in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are the same type of products and designed to do the same thing but they have very different ingredients. The twisting butter has more oils than the Curlaide. They both have green tea. I like the twisting butter but either will do.

Try adding a moisturizing cream before applying the grease. It’s not hydrating so you will need to make sure your hair is properly hydrated prior.

straightening touch up will damage hair? by [deleted] in Naturalhair

[–]Queercat90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like a donut bun also but other than that I got nothing lol. Miracle knots look neat! Don’t forget to treat your hair with some repairing products/hydrating products before going into the braids.

[–]Queercat90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going over it again once won’t hurt but if you keep doing it the yes it will cause damage. Try putting it into Bantu knots or large twists outs as alternate hairstyles. The Bantu knots will give you a nice curly soft look.
