same lmao, really wish i had type 4 hair. or at least coarser texture

I've had that issue with coconut oil and some gels. I sweat a lot, so s*** be running down my face. I live in the PNW too, so it's mad rainy and I've been caught without a hat or hood and then I got product running into my eyes and mouth.

i didnt use face cream for years cuz of this reason, id sweat all year even winter. after losing weight i started using face moisturizer again cuz i sweat much less now. my forehead is still always shiny tho

Everyones hair is a bit different, using leave in daily is a good starting point to keep your hair moisturised.
You should definitely experiment after a while with different products and methods to see what works best for your hair. Good luck!

Anyone know any good cheap leave in conditioner a that get the job done (makes hair soft, moisturise etc)

Ol boy will get chu right

i want my hair like this eventually

I got Cantu and it works pretty well

How long does it keep your hair soft?

do y'all have any tips for shaving?

I never use razor blades with my hair type because they just give me ingrown hairs

I've tried the WAHL and it just doesn't get a close enough shave

Though, anytime my barber does it for me he does uses a wahl but also uses clippers in conjunction

So I guess I'm just trying to figure out which clippers to get? I'll prolly ask him next time I go, and also buy a wahl or andis with it again

In ur whole lifetime of maintaining your dreads, what did you do about your hairline?
This my 2nd time having dreads and I still wasn’t thinking properly to get the tapered hairline this time around. So my dreads start at the base of my hairline and i tend to do a ponytail or 3 braids just because it’s so low maintenance. But one of my friends that used to have braids is telling me I’m gonna end up with a receding hairline. I was always super cautious about this but him saying that got me even more nervous. Should I attempt to undo my hairline dreads and get a tapered hairline or am I overthinking this?

i personally think sharp right angle ass hairlines and fades look really bad so i never have done anything to my hairline

also my locs are freeform so there is no pulling on the roots that one would result in a receding hairline

Any recs for a nice headwrap/scarf/turban to sleep in? Feel like durags dont let my scalp breathe

i just use a silk bonnet.

sleep on a (bamboo) silk pillow sheet and u dont have to use anything. got a whole bedset of it

Word I got one I didnt know if that was good by itself

i washed and conditioned my hair every day and now my scalp is kinda f***ed so i definitely do not recommend that

I've been noticing changes in my hair I started to find hair (4b this time) that doesn't match with my actually hairtype (3c) I'm going trough the last chapters of my puberty, should I be worried about this change

Cantu

are my wishes coming true

What a crispy lineup
