I am 2 years 9 months post relaxer and I have only 9-11 inches of hair. My hair is not getting shorter but it is getting longer slowly. My hair is healthy and moisturized but I always wear it shrunken.(4b/4c) Is this stunting my length retention? Did you use protective styles to grow out your hair?
Hiya! I have been natural for 10 years. I believe healthy hair practices have helped me grow my hair including protective styles especially braids (with extensions) help me retain length. ❤
Hi Toyin...contrary to popular belief, the average African heritage person will retain 3-4 inches a year. This plus breakage, can lead to very low rate of retention. You are not doing anything wrong. However, do try protective styles which you can do yourself so that your hair doesn't get single strand knots,and you don't have to touch it for like a month.
Pretty lady and pretty hair.👍
Awesome content ...
I love your beautiful curls!! I’ve never tried any of those products however I wanted to try the curl maker.
