Im down to chat. I am struggling with my band, but I am natural and love hair talk. So let's chat it up :) I've been natural since 2000. I have locks for 7 years, and now I am natural and free. I have had a lot of hair issues since being banded, but now things seem to be much better. My hair is growing and shiny.

I am a natural fury girl as well. I have been perm free for four years. It wasn't til this last year I learned how to grow thicker longer hair. As for my band, I was banded April 3rd, 214. So far everything is great,except this gas pain...

Congrats on both. Be mindful to properly care for your hair now more than ever. I know that I had a lot of issue with dryness and breakage since having my band. I use a lot of moisture/water to maintain and enhance my growth.

I am watching my hair, I take Biotin as apart of my daily regime. As we speak I am deep conditioning my hair, then I am going to do a protective style on it.

That's good. I don't consistently take biotin as I should. I moisturize daily with Water mixed with essential oils. I also mix shea butter with some essential oils as well. Protective styles are wonderful. Sounds like you have a great plan.

I am trying... I just realized my grammar was all messed up, I blame that on the pain medicine.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
