    Default Hello!!!

    Hi, I'm Ayo. I'm a Nigerian kid that lives in Texas. I'm growing my hair out, hoping get curls. I have a 4c texture. Well I'm pretty sure I do because I'm Nigerian and my hair is very nappy. I used to have waves. Lol, don't know how good enough of an intro that was.

    Welcome Ayo, Nigerian kid that lives in Texas. I didn´t understand your introduction You say you have 4c hair texture, and you also say you used to have waves, and you hope to get curls....
    Anyway, I hope you have a nice transition to napptural hair.

    Lol, sorry. I'm a guy. I used to have waves, as in 360 waves. I hope to get curls, which is a hairstyle in which you grow your hair out and get defined curls. I use SheaMoisture curl enhancing smoothie. I also use the moisture retention shampoo (pink bottle I believe). I was using cantu shea butter leave in conditioner before I ran out.

    Ayo, how do you expect to get waves with 4c texture? Are you going to use a a chemical to get waves? Did you have waves, 360 waves (don´t know what that means) because you had a chemical in your hair? Never heard of a "hairstyle in which you grow your hair out and get defined curls", and with 4c hair...

    Welcome Nigerian kid from Texas.

    Hair grading -3,4,a,b,c... is not an exact science, which is why we don't really pay too much mind to hairtyping here on NP. It looks like you are wearing a wave cap to get those waves? If your hair is short enough and you brush it all in the same direction with a moisturizing product, you will get waves. No chemicals needed.

    Hi deecoily, I've actually had waves for several years, so I got tired of them, lol. I'm trying to get curls now. You know curls, right? Kinda like the ones Will Smith had in Hitch?

    Hi, I'm wondering why I can't start posts in other sections? Why do I still need permission? In the meantime, I need help with my hair. I'm trying to get curls like Will Smith in Hitch, but everybody keeps telling me that I need a kit aka texturizer. I really don't want to kit my hair if it can be avoided. Please, can anyone help me?

    It's because to stop spammers there is a post minimum before new members are able to post on all boards. But I will override that restriction for you and upgrade your membership so you can post in the Help areas.
