Rice water?

A woman I am subscribed to on YouTube recently posted a video on rice water and how it has helped grow her hair. I’m curious about it. Has anyone had any success with it? I’m currently in a TWA stage and looking to get out quick lol.View on the ForumOriginal author: QueenArame
Hi. My name is Arame (pronounced air-uh-me) and I’m 18 years old. My natural hair journey has just began for me, I big chopped my hair back in March. My relaxed hair was looking a hot mess and I couldn’t hold on to it any longer so I grabbed them scissors and I cut it all off. Admittedly I’m not as in love with my hair as I used to be as a child. B
I did the big chop back in March, I’m over relaxers for the last time. I’ve had them since middle school and I’m 18 now. I’m starting fresh and I’m honestly pretty awkward with my natural hair, especially with it being short and I’m not sure how to care for it and style it, all I know is to keep it moisturized but that gets difficult for me because

⚠️ I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE FOR THE LONG POST ⚠️Let me begin by talking about my hair and what it's been through. For starters, I definitely have type 4 hair. Mostly 4a/4b with a bit of 4c in the back (maybe). My hair is very low porosity and pretty resilient I would say. Despite bleaching, dyeing, and straightening it every week for years under 450°

To those who spread the lie that Black people are immune to COVID-19, shame on you! I saw that lie posted and shared all over Facebook. Michigan is now reporting the racial breakdown of COVID-19 cases. So far, 10,791 positive cases have been reported & 417 deaths. Of that, African Americans account for 35% of cases & 40% of deaths.
