3 years Natural and my hair is collar bone length
I feel like it should be longer. I know I shouldn't be comparing my hair length with everyone else but I can't help it. So today I decided to apply Eco Styler gel (Moroccan Argan oil) to define my curls. The ends are very well defined, roots, not so much. Then again they might take the entire day to dry before I see a difference. But my main problem with this style is the shrinkage. My hair shrinks more the 50% of my length. You think I'd be used to this by now but no. The first year I went natural I wore wigs, second year, braids. This year I decided to handle my own hair and I don't think I can really do it until my hair bra strap length with a flat-twist twist-out (my default). So I figured my hair grew much faster when I wore wigs and and braids so I'm considering going back. I'd really like to put in braids, but I really need to give my edges a break. Does anyone know how to grow them out btw. It's a struggle for me. Another con for putting braids in, the amount of hair I loose when I take it out. Maybe I'll go for a natural styled wig. I need a partial break with my hair.
