BE Black Hair and Beauty

Public·108 members

Intro

Hello! I’m Queen, located in Long Beach, CA. I’ve been natural for 24 years, of which 13 1/2 were loc’d. 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 what’s missing and/or thin. Always looking for someone who specializes in healthy hair/scalp, can style within my limitations and who’s 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).

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 it’s my own.

My hair has gone through it but I'm still on the journey

Hey everyone 👋🏾 I wanted to introduce myself and my hair.


💁🏾‍♀️ 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.


🌱 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. 🙏🏾

Hi everyone – it’s wonderful to see this Group. I’ve kept my hair in locks for nearly 15

Curly girlie 🥰

I'm Mariah. Anyone who knows me know it's 3 things I don't play about-- my faith, my bag, and my HAIR! 💯. 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.😍 I often find myself watching hair transformation videos. Love experimenting with different products and love that this is a group category. Cheers! 🥂

Hi Mariah! You are my kinda girl! I don’t play about my 2 week hair appointment! 💇🏽‍♀️ I don’t play bout my daily change of earrings , working daily on my faith, and my bag 👜… 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

I’m a loc girly and would LOVE to share tips.

What’s 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 ☺️. 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. Here’s a vid of the main hairstyles I had last year. We’ll see what I come up with this year 😅

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 💁🏾‍♀️.
