Official Thread for Those with Afro-Hair Only - Ladies and Gents . .

No 30 pounds isn't too much although I don't usually pay for relaxing but that's about what I pay for using extensions.

It's getting a bit tiring doing the whole relaxing, extensions routine and I really want to do something different with my hair but I don't know what.

why do girls buy extensions to braid in? Why not just braid the natural hair?

Do any of you use the mega-tek/EQYSS poducts i.e this stuff? I'm thinking of maybe getting their detangler and hair growth one? Some of the things seem expensive but looking at their ingredients, they seem to be really good - oil free, no sls, silicones etc. (Shame they're primarily for horses/animals lol)

Right my stuff has arrived from the mega-tek place and it smells gorgeous actually. will try the detangler/hair sprouter today.

I keep my hair well moisturised and etc, but I seem to be suffering with a bad dandruff problem

Sulfur8...yellow and white bottle, STINKS to high heaven,, but its actually really gd for dry scalps. I guaranteeeee that will work!!

Ta for the suggestion though.

youre welcum

I'm lazy and just straighten my hair probly evry 3-4 weeks,,,, anyone kno of any good heat protection sprays/gels/creams??....

i luv keracare at the moment but it' a ridiculus bottle for £12......ive tried loads but none that have kept me loyal lol

I have had mine almost a year and im just coming to the end of it.

that is ages...
i've tried their hair polisher stuff, which was good, when my hair's straight I like to keep it clean so it's annoying having to use gel, sheen spray and what ever else......
I just feel sorry for the girls who say they wash their hair every 2 days....or every day

Do let me, well the thread know how you get on - as im still intrigued by the products if im honest lol

Well I tried this today, the Megatek rebuilder and it smells gorgeous! Like pina colada actually..the horses are lucky lol. Anyways, it's easy to apply and it's light and sinks in nicely. I left it on for a couple of hours with my hair uncovered and it does feel like there's hair gum/gel in your hair but that's pretty standard isn't with stuff like that. Anyways washed it out after a couple of hours and my hair's really soft and detangled easily So now I'm sitting with a bag over my hair deep conditioning with loads of essential oils and conditioners

I got this spray as well, and tried it and it works too, hair detangled and was soft and moisturised so pleased with this. I'm definitely going to take it camping with me. I think I might switch to the megatek stuff completely...the ingredients are like the holy grail of all hair products lol

Tomorrow I'm going to use the megatek 'treatment' tomorrow but not for a long time as I'll need to do my grocery shopping and then I'm going to try the 'baking soda texturiser treatment' lol

Anyways the goal is to do the megatek treatment twice a week, mostly at the weekend and if I notice any growth, I'll let you lot know

I totally agree there should be a regulated list. There's no way of telling if a salon is going to be good or not until you go there. I was thinking about going to Errol Douglas in London (the guy who's won a tonne of awards) but it's £80 and I don't want to spend that much every couple of months. Surely there must be good salons out there that offer decent hair care, good customer service and a reasonable price.
