Name Hi My name is Deja and I am a hair care addict.
Age: 32
How long have you been doing hair care: All my life.
Hair Type: 2b I think I have so many textures in one.
Hair length and state e.g. relaxed etc: Had grown very long with relaxer but it was not thick enough for my tastes. I missed my natural hair and wanted to grow it out again. Luckily my hair grows like weeds. I cut it to about 1" long in June and its already about 3" long. Wearing weaves as a protective style.
Hair Goals (outside of healthy hair):Waist length hair and to resist the temptation to relax it when it gets to that awkward length.
How you found BHM: On google looking for hair growth products.
What you hope to learn by being here: I hope to be able to share some of what I know and learn how other women are succeeding in achieving their hair growth goals.
Anything else you'd like us to know: Glycerin is my best friend. It makes managing my hair a breeze and I think the moisture it helps hold in my hair is aiding my growth.
