I found the george micheal site and it told me that brushing one hundred strokes is good for the hair but I have read other stuff that says it is bad for the hair? I understand why it is good and why it is bad but kinda leaves one wondering what to do. Als o the the GM site it said that when having long hair it is better to get your hair cut when it is washed and dry. I have never heard this before, I thought it was damaging to the hair to cut it dry and also doesn't cut straight? The one thing i found one the site I like is a recipe for deep conditioner to make at home. But I think I like my 3 minute reconstructive condtioner by aussie, makes my hair very soft. It has lots of oils in it esspecially jojoba seed oil.

I don't brush my hair, its just too fine and delicate, and
I get lots of splits if I do. There are some who advocate
brushing the hair, and some who don't. Also, my hair
is not stick straight, and I like to encourage the waves
and brushing it takes themout. I think in the old days,
they didn't have conditioner and needed to brush that
much to get the sebum down to the ends. Now we have
essential oils and conditioners. I do scalp massages
instead to encourage circulation to the scalp. I'm
not saying I disagree with GM, I would love to visit a
salon one day!! I'm just scared to brush my hair that
much.

I read on a site that baby oil could be used in the hair same as jojoba oil. But I wanted to ask here first if anyone knows about this before I try it.

Reply #37 - Dec 23^rd, 2004 at 7:25pm I wouldn't recommend baby oil - it is a mineral oil that is too heavy for most hair and would not be absorbed into the hair shaft (molecules are too big). Vegetable and plant oils are much better for your hair.

Hello all! Went to the hubbys aunts house for a visit and one of his cousins was there with her very long pretty hair made me want long hair even more.

Does the damage ever stop? I have been dusting and dusting and I seem to just keep finding more and more everytime, especially new splits. It makes me sick. I sleep with my hair up everynight, shampoo every three to four days, been using better products with lots of vitamins, taking lots of vitamins, using better comb and brush, only brush before i shampoo, use a leave in conditioner and instead of combing it and having tangles I use the leave in condtioner before I comb. But I still seem to be having new splits. Any suggestions???

I know that feeling! See my hair journal...it has a long history of trimming splits.

But there's really no other way than trimming to get rid of damage that has already occurred. Your good haircare routine will hopefully reduce splits in future. Though I think, that some hairtypes are more prone to splitting than others.
When I noticed that my split end situation was bad, I took it as a project to trim at least a certain amount of splits every day. It really worked- finally!

I measured my hair yesterday and I had an inch of growth this month. My haired measured at 19 1/2 before i got it cut last month after it was cut it was 19 1/4 and now it is a little more than 20 1/4. So I will wait till this weekend and hopefully go to an old friend and get a good trim but a small one. This is the one person I can say cut 1/2 and inch and thats all she cuts.

I am very pleased with my hair growth!!!! I guess the GNC hair vitamins are helping. Grin

Reply #43 - Dec 31^st, 2004 at 11:53pm Does anyone know of any other hair vitamins that are in bulk more than 60 in the bottle but are too pricey? I have been taking GNC's ultra nourishair which works fine but i thought maybe I could find something maybe same price with more vitamins in the bottle.

Well I didn't get to oil my hair this weekend because I had to spend my money on getting my car fixed to keep it in good running condition, I guess it was worth it though. Its really driving me crazy though that i didnt get to do anything with my hair this weekend, so I am trying to go as long as possible without washing my hair so that I can get the oils down to the ends and hope that will be good enough till fridays payday then I can buy some more oil for this weekend. My only problem is my scalp is already starting to itch and it has only been three days since my last wash. I don't know if im going to make it too much longer because I don't want to end up scratching my scalp all up. Sad
