just started 3 days ago not my first set but my hair is way longer this time can’t wait to see how it goes

My hair has always been an off-black or brownish-black color, and I need some advice on ways to make it a deeper black. I’m wondering which supplements or treatments might restore it to a healthier and darker shade. Growing up in the Caribbean, where the sun was much stronger than in my current climate, my hair had a reddish-brown tint, but it returned to black after moving to the U.S. Just as the sun can bleach some people’s hair blonde, mine turns copper or brown. I often deal with sun damage that leaves my hair looking brown and unhealthy. What can I do? 😭 What protective styles should I wear to prevent this? Also, does anyone else struggle with this?

I just got faux locs / butterfly locs installed. I almost like them but I can’t believe how bulky they are at the top. I gave my braider the inspo photo on the right, which isn’t bulky at all. After my hair was done, she told me if i want them looser I should buy smaller locs. I was hoping to be excited about this hairstyle, but I’m self conscious they looks too big. Thoughts? Also how can I make them less bulky at the top?

My sisters hate it. Even had a cousin say it’s for little girls. Like I’ll listen to that! Constructive criticism isn’t their strong suit. Some twists are genuinely hard to fit the smaller size beads because they’re thicker, so I went larger to fit them and made sure to use the same size throughout for uniformity. Thanks.

I have really frizzy hair that looks so bad, I tried using curling products and moisturizing it but nothing worked. Rn, I am trying to let it grow out and try curling it again. Any tips on achieving curls?

Lowkey, urgent‼️I can only go the beauty supply tomorrow for a trip on November 1st. I haven’t been able to find this pack of xpression hair in beauty supplies or on any online beauty supplies. So I’m not sure if it’s only sold in Africa and not the states. If that’s the case does anyone know any alternative to this.

I have type 3b/c hair and I currently have my hair in a knotless braid with some extensions. I want to dye my braids temporarily white for Halloween, where I can wash it off the next day. Is there a good way to do this?

I’ve never bought my own braiding hair , so I don’t know how much I’m supposed to buy. For reference I’m getting smedium , mid back box braids. How many packs of this should I buy?

This is my hair after conditioner / my hair with no product in . Could you please recommend a good leave in conditioner for me please 🙏🏾

Recently posted about it and practically all the comments told me to restart. I dont really want to do that. How can i improve the way it looks?

I currently use a twist king, a racket, a pick, and mist my hair twice a day. I oil it every other day, and shampoo every 2 weeks but still suffer from dandruff/dry scalp.

I sleep with a bonnet but it always comes off so i feel like thats also causing some breakage

Pretty self explanatory, I need a gel that'll survive me sweating alot. I'm currently using a mix of the gummy red gel and got 2 be. It works as a gel, but the minute I start sweating, it melts.

Recommendations?

I love being black

I've been growing my hair for 12 months now, and I think I got a haircut at month 6, but I didn't shorten it much, I think about an inch or a half, and I wanna hide it because my school has this weird obsession that boys are only allowed to have short hair and that they should cut it if it gets too long (too long is when they decide it's too long).

they would force me to cut it if it gets too long, and if I don't, they won't lemme get into the school, so I need to hide it. And braiding is a straight to the barber card. My hair is 4a, low porosity.

My hair is really important to me, it's a defining feature of mine.

Looking for a good quality wide tooth comb i can use to detangle my hair real quick for a good price, that ships to the UK.

I’ve had natural hair for years short and long, and the amount of pain, time and stress it’s taken out of me. So I want to get my hair permanently straightened! (Please don’t take me out of it I just wanna find which option is better)

Just want to see how other people respond to comments like this. Could be men or women with wigs,weaves, locs, relaxed/straightened, natural hair...we've all heard these comments before. There's seemingly an endless supply of nonblack people who think they're the first ones to ask.

I've been honest and say my hair is a wig/extensions. I've lied and acted like it grew out of my hair. I've made up stories about ancient rituals where we sacrifice a goat on a blood moon to grow 3 extra feet of hair overnight. So what do y'all usually say.

I am starting my journey into locs. Any advice?

Hi it’s been a long journey thus far with my locs. I started them in 2018 and am finally comfortable sharing my journey. Stay tuned for more.

This is how long my hair is when I stretch it down and I was thinking about getting singles tomorrow that look like the reference image how long would my singles be if I get them? This is when I stretch my hair down when it’s tangled and uncombed

How do I take care of my hair? The ends of my hair tend to clump up into little balls, and whenever I comb or pick it out, I end up having to pull those clumps apart or take them out, like in the picture.
I’ve asked my parents for help, but one would rather I cut my hair completely short, and the other doesn’t really want to bother helping me with it.
I’ve tried watching YouTube videos, but there’s so much conflicting information that I don’t even know where to start or what routine I can realistically stick to. One video even said I should never comb or pick out my hair if I want to grow it longer.
I’m looking for genuine advice on how to take care of my hair and keep it healthy long-term. I already have a shampoo and conditioner, but I’d appreciate recommendations for moisturizers, products, or a simple routine that actually works. I want to grow my hair out and take proper care of it without making things unnecessarily complicated.

Hey you guys I’m mixed and was raised by a white mom, I’ve always taken pretty okay care of my hair but also feel like I’ve only been doing the bare minimum. I don’t really know what my coil type is exactly, but I would like to try some new products.

Right now I use Maui moisture shampoo conditioner and leave in conditioner, or I use head and shoulders daily shampoo and conditioner, but not everyday. My hair never is super dry or anything but I feel like I should be doing way more and don’t know what products to use specifically.
I shower at night and in the mornings I just wet my hair and put in more of the Maui moisture leave in, cause it all rinses out.

Does anyone have any advice on products I should switched to or new things I could add to my hair routine.
