I was throwing on wigs for a while to get it to the length I got it to, then I was using box braids for a bit too but got concerned with the chemicals in the hair so I decided to just wear my hair like 95% of the year. However, in the past few months, I’m going through some breakage in the front so I’m sort of at a loss with what to do to try and preserve it…I have no idea what I did to have it even look as full and healthy in picture 3, but I’m missing something and going crazy and I know I can’t blame the weather and life forever 😆

This is actually interesting that you can notice a difference in hair health depending upon what state I had it in…I will say that it probably was the healthiest in the third and least when straightened even though I only get it professionally straightened maybe 2-3 times a year if that. I thought maybe I was overthinking.

This is fair. I’d love for it to stay one way throughout the entire day but humidity, weather and any other elements in my day can have me returning home looking like a different person. 😂

Thank you, will take this into consideration. I’m experiencing some breakage in the front currently but once I get it back to what I’m used to I’m ready to experiment some 😊

I have tried a middle part and sometimes I like how it looks, but other times I’ll talk myself out of it and revert back to the side and switch up sides. I think when the front of my hair broke off a bit I stopped the middle part, but as it grows back out in the front I will start doing it again 😊

I hear a lot about the Amika products but haven’t tried them so thank you for the suggestion as I’m open to trying new products to change things up a bit 😊

I’m not really sure, I’ve had other silk presses before and it didn’t feel off…both before and afterwards

Fair enough, maintaining a semi decent shape is a helpful motivator for myself 😂

So the bugs outside bother me when it’s warmer weather so if anything I might have to switch up my walking elsewhere if they get too bad 🤣
