My hair is very thin and fine and is prone to breaking easily. I've done henna, perms, different hair cuts and highlights, but lately, I'm finding that I can achieve a very silky hair texture if I use the right products. Your post inspired me to research products for fine hair and I'm taking a hair journey of my own!

I say, keep at...asalaamu alaikum...ohh great post! I say, keep at it! I always get a bit tearful when I see some of the little girls on my block getting their hair permed already...I'm like...c'mon! really! anyway, Im not mixed but my dad has very coarse and very curly hair naturally and I inherited it...cept once I started with hejab ever so long ago, the curl left for some reason...but I still can get some waves if I make an effort...but its coarse still. Anyway some of those products I actually use! Unfortunately most of the products made for "white hair" are only good if you have very fine hair or oily hair...well, mine is coarse, dry and breaks easily...frankly, half the time I go to Sally's and buy products from the black hair category...like I slather argan oil on my hair after washing, ive used the tingling deep intensive conditioner before...ive used the protein oil packs and heavens only knows what else since I as a teenager. I regularly henna my hair and since I started my hair has been growing a lot...alhamdullah. I plan to just keeeep growing it out...and just trim the ends. Between the argan oil and the every 3 month hennas my hair isnt too bad and it doesnt break as much. Also I stopped regularly brushing my hair...again, may sound weird, but once I stopped brushing it daily (I brush it weekly) and keeping it braided up my hair also doesnt break as much (I do massage my scalp daily thou). I wash it twice a week. Sofar so good...keep up the good work! Im glad youve finally regained control over your hair and are trying to keep it healthy. Its a struggle as society says 1 thing and well, your own body says something else...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640964013415263100.post-63984385301443881062012-10-25T13:59:11.654-07:002012-10-25T13:59:11.654-07:00Yeah we do have Amazon and all that good stuff.

I bought an eyeshadow palette from BH cosmetics recently (I don't recommend their stuff, fallout drives me crazy) and she wont let me hear the end of it after using her Debit Card.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640964013415263100.post-59819001015585762212012-10-20T15:43:45.086-07:002012-10-20T15:43:45.086-07:00Im so excited sis to here you already have started...Im so excited sis to here you already have started a journey!

It pays off so well.It's so rewarding b/c I love knowing I'm taking care of my hair. There's always so much to try and figure out and so many natural recipes for your hair. The only problem for a Canadian like me is I don't have the product variety the states is lucky to have. I make do with what I can :P<br /><br />Looking foward to your reviews! lol I'll add advice where ever I can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640964013415263100.post-21185173203117118712012-10-18T23:19:59.241-07:002012-10-18T23:19:59.241-07:00great thx a lot habibti, I'll send u the link ...great thx a lot habibti, I'll send u the link when I finished inchallah. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401368421525734668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640964013415263100.post-34476004159964572992012-10-18T17:33:17.737-07:002012-10-18T17:33:17.737-07:00Thanks sis!!!!
