Now this coconut oil is not the Palmer's coconut cream is it? I am assuming that the oil is liquid?

How I wish that I has posted this thread when this girl was 2 days old. It would have sure saved us both a lot of trouble

mukina, right there 

i'd prefer all boys true true. so inked, relax for that's my wish.
i remmy when mom used to plait my hair with thread. she was soooo good at it. she would do so many style real beautiful style with thread and artificial (to make my hair much longer for the style). for 4 days, i won't be able to sleep or carry anything on my head. week  1 thread, next week nice weavings (that she can't do so she would send me to the idomas/tiv girls to do it). phew!! i look back and i say na wah. i wouldn't want to do same to my kids 

CC, why you no wan bb the lil darling hair now?

lol your own better, for me it took two whole days or more to finish simple corn rows on my head , my mum will hold something on her hand to beat me if i dare move, i will get up every 5 mins, for water/pee go play and come back, fake sleep

as for that thread thing,they always did that on my head for day of the African child, the woman (lady who did the threading) will put my head inbetween her legs mehn  i go cry taya.
bottom line is i hate doing my hair , even now , i prefer braiding for long term purposes only, no short term hair style for me abeg, and it should be braids, i do not like combing my hair at all

My mum used to bribe me then with fanta,lest my father  hear my screams and run out to rescue me.Trust me, I was asking for fanta every 5minutes.The poor woman was going bankrupt and decided to send me to one "Iya esther" (I will never forget that woman's name or forgive her for the emotional trauma she put me through when she used to make my hair,infact its not too late to sue her) that woman will put my head inbtwn her legs and did it smell down there?Yes I used to tell my sisters then That I think she's never washed her back and front side since the time of war.

Gawd and after the threading , gosh I look like someone that went under the knife.,Infact I was looked like "Joan rivers" .

@Inked-nerd
thanx for this

@ileke
Hi,
Pls do you mean you keep your natural hair?
If yes, is it long or short cut?

I am asking this cos I have been thinking of going natural since but the fear

damiso:

@CC thank you so much for this post,i have learnt so much.MyLO is16 months old and even the poof poof sef is war.Ever since she started walking once she sees me approaching with the comb,she flies off.Her hair is quite long for her age and so the poof poof now gets so rough fast am talking like in 2 to 3 days. I also am not a fan of chemicals on kids and so i have been dreading the next couple of years cos me am not that patient and i doubt any hairdresser in this uk has time for my LO hair sopa operas.And the father instead of encouraging me will be saying that i am punishing his princess as if she would not thank me in the future when she has healthy,I was tempted to chop the whole thing off sef.But this thread has given me necessary tips though i already use olive oil and shea butter.

mukina2:

go natural only if you have the time and energy, maintaining natural hair is hard  . .very hard, i tried it from grades 10-12 and i saw pepper, what saved me was that i could have one hairstyle for 3 months tiny folds on my head, for natural hair when the hairstyle is rough that's when its nice, all i did was wash with shampoo, and oil wella it shines, but if you are not at school,  that kinda hairstyle is not advisable not unless you wan carry dread locks for head

Thanx mukina. Funny tho
I don grad tey tey and already keep my hair but sometimes I just get tired of the way it breaks despite all I spend on it and I have been thinking of trying low cut or anita baker but so reluctant. . .sooner or later, I will still try anita baker or something. . .and its even good to know that natural hair too needs alot of time

HTown Eve:

@ Oludashmi You can do weaves/braids until the natural hair grows and then maybe do sister locks. You have to really care for natural hair tho.
