I was wondering if anyone can help me tackle this problem, I love having an afro but I reach a point where my hair gets like the pictures below. If I mist it and pick it out with leave in conditioner it'll end up back in the same shape as the photos. It feels like no matter what I do it just gets matted and tangled especially in the back. Any advice would be amazing

One thing I’ve learned on my natural hair journey is that I constantly forget which products, routines, and protective styles actually worked for my hair. Everything starts blending together after a while.

And that’s honestly what inspired me to build Luxe Roots. An app designed specifically for type4 hair that gives personalized routines based on your hair type and porosity, helps you stay consistent with reminders and progress tracking and brings everything you need into one place. I wanted to create the app I wish I had when I first started my healthy hair journey, something that makes hair care feel simple, personalized, and achievable for everyone. I also built a hair type scanner into it to analyze texture and patterns from a photo!

Hey! I hope this is the right place to post. I need help growing my hair. I feel like in high school my hair was so big, but now, not so much. I know for a fact that I have bleach damage, I started bleaching it this past Fall. So next year I’m going to focus on growing that out. It’s just fun for me to do. But how should I retain my growth? Even before I bleached it, I was struggling to get past my shoulder. My roots are proof that it grows quickly, but I can’t retain it.

Every morning I wet it in the shower and pik it out completely. And of course I’m losing way too much hair, even if I’m gentle. And then after the shower, I shape it. I try to moisturize it at least four times a week when it’s wet. I have tried so many products. Right now it’s a Shea Moisture product with vitamin E I mixed it. My hair just feels so dry and coarse all of the time (even without bleach). I don’t know if it’s just something that has changed with age. I do normally wear a bonnet at night. I have tried cutting my ends every 2 weeks or so, just the parts that are genuinely damaged. I have an extreme amount of fairy/single strand knots. No clue how to control them. To the point of me have ing short spots throughout my hair trying to pull and cut them out. Again, I know that I have bleach damage right now, but this stuff has been going on since I graduated high school and prior to bleaching. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Any advice please!

Hey everyone, I have been trying to go on a natural hair journey, and after years of removing different products, gadgets, and everything, I finally narrowed it down and realized my blow dryer is the issue.

The thing is I’m a college student going into my last year, and I’ve been struggling to save money specifically for a rev air since they are so expensive, and I’ve genuinely been looking EVERYWHERE, even almost got scammed on fb marketplace, so this is my last resort. If ANYONE have a rev air they don’t use and are looking to sell/give away for less then retail price, PLS let me know, I’ll be more then happy to work out a price we can both be happy with. Thank you smmm.

This is my situation but I’ll add more info.
I got a mix of type 4 hair throughout my hair I quite thin and I want to know how do you guys keep in moisture to grow your hairs no scalp oils very open hair oils as scalp oils worsens my condition.
