    A five-day-old twistout...go on wit 'cha bad self! It looks good too, chica. I love to see women who don't use their hair as an excuse not to work out.

    What brand argan oil are you using? It's my fave but I ran out of mine and it's expensive, so I'm looking for an alternative.

Can Fibroid affect Hair Growth?

Image
  Yes, uterine fibroids can indirectly affect hair growth, though the connection is complex and not direct. Fibroids themselves do not cause hair loss or changes in hair growth, but the hormonal imbalances and symptoms associated with them can influence hair health. Here’s how: 1. Hormonal Imbalance : Fibroids are often linked to an excess of estrogen or an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. Hormones play a critical role in the hair growth cycle, and an imbalance can lead to thinning hair, slower growth, or hair loss. 2. Iron Deficiency (Anemia) : Heavy menstrual bleeding, a common symptom of fibroids, can lead to iron deficiency anemia. Low iron levels have been linked to hair thinning and hair loss, particularly a type called telogen effluvium . 3. Stress : Chronic pain, fatigue, and other symptoms associated with fibroids can lead to physical and emotional stress, which can disrupt hair growth cycles and contribute to hair shedding. 4.

Why does density change when hair is in locs?

Image
  The density of hair appears to change when it’s in locs due to how the hair strands are structured and compacted in this style. Here’s a detailed breakdown: 1. Compression of Hair Strands  • When forming locs, the hair strands are tightly coiled, twisted, and sometimes matted together. This compression reduces the amount of space the hair takes up, making the hair feel denser or heavier in the locked areas. 2. Accumulation of Shedded Hair  • In loose hairstyles, shed hair falls out naturally. However, in locs, the shed hair remains trapped within the structure of the loc. Over time, this accumulation adds to the mass and density of each loc. 3. Reduction in Air Gaps  • Loose or free-flowing hair has more space between strands, which gives it a lighter appearance and feel. Locs, by contrast, have much less space between the strands because the hair is tightly packed, creating the impression of increased density. 4. Hair Growth Over Time  • As locs mature, more ...

  Razorempress , a content creator known for her natural hair journey, recently cut her long natural hair into a short pixie style. In her YouTube video titled “ Why I cut my Long Natural Hair.. ” , she explains her reasons for this significant change. In the video, she shares that she felt it was time for a change and wanted to experience the freedom and versatility that comes with shorter hair. She also mentions the desire to start fresh and embrace a new chapter in her hair journey. As someone with multiple jobs and a job as a mobile personal trainer she was always sweating and hairstyles did not last for her. Doing protective styling or straightening hair would not work for her.

Additionally, on her Instagram, she posted about her first wash day after cutting her hair, describing the experience as “nothing short of magical” and e...
