no one really was supportive of my decision & no one came with me to get it cut, but I caved in & asked myself "what am I waiting for? what am I scared of?" & when I realized that the answer was nothing, I called up my ex-neighbor & she chopped! I still have some straight ends in the front, but I'll get those later. she gave me some twisties that I hate, so I'm taking them down as I type lol pictures coming soon. does anyone have any advice to what I should do with my new twa?

Hey!! *waves*

I just BCed on Saturday and I too am rocking a TWA.

My advice would be work on building your hair's moisture. I didn't get product happy like most ppl do when they BC and I bought just are things to try based on months of research and I came up with a pretty simple routine.i can't really tell if it's working or not, as it's only been 3 days but my hasn't been hard like it was the very first day. Therefore, I must be doing something right 😊.

So what are you doing to your hair now?

the lady put SOOOO much product in my hair. it was so nasty and oily, so I just washed it out. my sister asked "it looks like you have shampoo in your hair" cus there was so much stuff in it -_- but now I'm letting it air dry, wbu?

The lady only put a leave in and pomade in my hair but after a few hours it got super hard.

Now, I simply co-wash, baggy, and do the LOC method. I'm still struggling with curl definition but I think the moisture is there. My curls are showing up more than they did when I first BCed.

I did it! I big chop last night! I originally planned to transition, but my heat damaged hair was too damaged. I just decided to cut it off now and work with what I have. I hair regime has been a modified curly girl/tightly curly. It works so far. Wish me luck!

okay my problem is moisture right now, so I might do that too
