Howdy y'all, I'm Kai. I've had my hair natural for the majority of my life, but I'm still a newb to haircare. I'm primarily Black and Mexican which has meant a lot of trial and error with little success due to the differing textures. Currently getting by with coconut oil to help moisturize and a weekly wash. I'm hoping to pick up some tips here in the meantime

BE Black Hair and Beauty
Intro
Hello! Iโm Queen, located in Long Beach, CA. Iโve been natural for 24 years, of which 13 1/2 were locโd. I released my locs nearing the end of 2016 and have been going through trials and experimenting with hair styles. Also, I have developed traction alopecia and am now in peri (if you know, you know). So my hair is still a new zone that I navigate. I have plenty of it but of course am most bothered by whatโs missing and/or thin. Always looking for someone who specializes in healthy hair/scalp, can style within my limitations and whoโs professional. I have that back home (Midwest) but have yet to make a great connection in So Cal (even after being here over 15 years, smh).
My hair has gone through it but I'm still on the journey
Hey everyone ๐๐พ I wanted to introduce myself and my hair.
๐๐พโโ๏ธ I started my locs in the spring of 2005 right before studying abroad in Japan. Then, in 2022, I started experiencing alopecia. After my hair started growing back on it's own, I made the difficult decision to cut off my locs in the spring of 2023.
๐ฑ Since then, I've been slowly growing my hair back out. I don't know if I'll do locs again, but I'm doing my best to be grateful for the hair I have and to take care of it the best I can. Hoping to get inspired and informed by y'all in this group. ๐๐พ

I'm Mariah. Anyone who knows me know it's 3 things I don't play about-- my faith, my bag, and my HAIR! ๐ฏ. These days, most people will never see my hair straightened, unless it's a pic, so here ya go lol. I love natural Black hairstyles, BIG hair, and a well-kept, full beard.๐ I often find myself watching hair transformation videos. Love experimenting with different products and love that this is a group category. Cheers! ๐ฅ
Hi Mariah! You are my kinda girl! I donโt play about my 2 week hair appointment! ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ I donโt play bout my daily change of earrings , working daily on my faith, and my bag ๐โฆ I always wear my hair curly after the wash but let the curls fall so I have cute body days after. In the summer, I love my braids!!! Where are you from? Nice meeting you Mariah!!!
Thank you for having me
Iโm a loc girly and would LOVE to share tips.
Whatโs your preferred method to detox your locs? I have mixed feelings about apple cider vinegar, but it does get the job done.
Hi! My name is Amber. 4C hair member โบ๏ธ. Plan to use this group to be inspired and come up with more styles for my hair!
Hi, Bree here! One of my many favorite things about being a Black Woman is the versatility of our hair. Hereโs a vid of the main hairstyles I had last year. Weโll see what I come up with this year ๐
Always an afro
This is me almost 365 days a year. I don't know how to do hairstyles (can't even part straight) and I don't know where to go get my hair done in Rhode Island. Luckily, I absolutely love my fro so ๐๐พโโ๏ธ.
I myself have the same issues. But I have embraced natural wigs. So I go to the salon to have them wash, condition, give me a treatment (sometimes a trim as well) and give me a wig braid down so my hair and scalp are nourished. I usually buy wigs from HerGivenHair and I style and use products in it like itโs my own.
