    [quote="Khaleesi;6654612"

    I've observed that my hair is a bit dryer than it was when I used to straighten bi-weekly... & using oils makes my hair feel clumpy & nasty within a few days. Not sure what to do about this.

    Products I use: Cantu shea butter, hawaiian silk spray, Jamaican castor oil, some other oil that I can't remember right now, creme of nature leave in conditioner, creme of nature shampoo, suave keratin conditioner, & Avanti silicon mix for my deep conditioning treatments.

    Ofcourse I don't use all at once, my staple products that I use throughout the week are the shea butter, creme of nature leave-in.[/quote]
    My hair is natural but I blow dry it and straighten it when I'm busy with school and work so I can only wash it once every week as opposed to washing it every other day when I leave it curly. I've noticed it started to get dry when I wash it often now that it summer, so I started putting EVOO for one hour prior to shampooing. I've also switched to Redken moisturizing shampoo and conditioners. It's a bit pricy but try to stack on the jumbo sizes when they put them on sale. It's well worth it and lasts long. Trust me I wash my hair two to three times a week unless it's straight. If you put oil, try to put it only on your scalp using a qtip over night and put a little drop on your palms and rub it around your hair. It will be nicely soft and moisturized in the morning with no clump or grease. I usually use the EVOO I cook with.

    I've been natural for a while now, however, I'm always looking for new products to try. There are some interesting products suggested. Can't wait to cop some.

    I thought there was a big ass natural hair thread up here but a search didnt turn it up? who started this thread? anyway recently I have noticed my hair thinning at the forefront of one side of my head it wasnt a big deal at first now I noticed that ? slowly spreading down the side to the back of my head. if it was happening on both sides I wouldnt give a ? but it dont and I do

    I think I sleep on that side so Ima try to switch ? up and see what happens. anybody know something that can stop this help my hair grow back. google is saying surgery...I cant afford that.
