He does like me flat braiding my hair, he likes African hair styles (well...he's a full African, so that's understandable) so, he's alright with the idea of me doing African Threading (aka Ghana Plaits: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WEhKgNKIwjI/TXwK-Vis_FI/AAAAAAAAAWU/u4TBPFawpkI/s1600/Recently%2BUpdated51.jpg , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nG2Kn2GznMY&context=C32f3b8dADOEgsToPDskL7LleDjb52s5GrEU9_jnOA). He also doesn't like me box or micro braiding my hair with extensions, but he can handle that. *sigh* So, I don't have many options.<br />If I could, I'll be braiding my hair myself, but I'm not very neat with that especially because I can't see the back of my head. *sigh*<br />I did meet lady at the hair salon my mum goes to and like she's the only one there that I allow to touch my hair because she combs and detangles it how I want, she doesn't comb or braid my hair dry, she doesn't pull at it and she keeps natural ingredients to use on my hair instead of me having to bring the ones I have at home :) Next time, I'm going to insist on going to her.<br />Today, I watched my mum take down her box braids (that she had for quite a long time) and then she was like detangling her hair. My mum has been wanting to re-relaxing her for a while now. Anyways, she had about an inch of natural hair in and like when she was detangling, with the knots and tangles in her hair she like...I have pics of it. It was scary, my mum pulled a comb through her hair from the roots up. She was like, "this is why I don't want to keep my natural hair." I was like, "I can show you how to detangle your hair better," she didn't care and like...well...she yanked out so much of her hair. I was just so tempted to take pics of it (she knows I did that) so, like people can see the results of combing or detangling their hair like that.<br /><br />Anyways, thanks for the advice. Whenever I take my hair down, I'll try practising braiding my hair (esp. the back area) myself till I'm good at it. :) If I don't want to lose hair like this, I've gotta make sure there's no reason for me to lose hair like this :)Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17080469169644768947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1456522163938276921.post-9047736233026524302012-01-16T20:34:47.634+00:002012-01-16T20:34:47.634+00:00We all went through it....You gotta just be on top...We all went through it....You gotta just be on top of your hair so there's no need for anyone else to have to "help" you out LOL. You know how your parents like to see it, so make sure you do it the way they like, but do it yourself (that way you'll detangle it patiently and safely)TheNEW007https://www.blogger.com/profile/17640992842523841977noreply@blogger.com
