can't wait to be a part of the century club!

I had the ds about two years ago and experienced major hair loss despite increasing my biotin and protein intake. I was natural at the time of surgery (and have been off and on since I was a kid) and had about a 4a type curl pattern - at points in time we referred to it as the "super fro". The surgery affected my hair almost like chemotherapy - it grew in very fine and wispy and the curl was very loose and the top was totally straight. I have found that using regular and black jamaican castor oil has helped thicken it up but there is little I can do about the new texture. It would probably be cool if I wore a relaxer but I prefer my hair natural. I found that sew ins have helped it rest while Im growing it back ...I'm gonna try some braids this summer - my hair was so fine before I was afraid it would be too much.
