I have natural hair and one thing I would recommend is to wet ur hair, put conditioner on your hair, swim, rinse it out with a sulfate free Shampoo, put it in a ponytail and let it air dry. Putting too much heat on the hair with or without a heat protector, can damage your hair after awhile. If you are going every day, a sulfate free shampoo will not strip ur hair of its natural oils. Products with sulfates are like degreasers. They strip your hair of everything, the good and the bad. It is mainly about what products you use and what you put into your body. Your hair and skin are manipulated by what you eat and drink as well as the products you use.

I have been natural since 7/30/11 and I just love my natural hair. Currently, I am growing dreads.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
