Just wanted to give this thread a bump. What are we doing for winter guys? What protective styles & products are you using?

They affected my already bad anemia. It throws off your nutrient and iron levels too.looks good
sorry about the fibroids...they affected your hormones and therefore your hair?
I just ordered As I Am cowash...haven't tried it yet. I've only used one cowash - Hair One. I found I got pretty good curl formation with it but wanted to try something different.
Thank you so much. ♡I've dealt with firboids, anemia, low ferritin before too so I know the journey as well fendifemale.
Right now, it's silk press season for me lol However up until 2 weeks ago, I was using product line by Jozi Curls, sold at Target and loved the results. I'll probably go back to my wash-n-go''s after Christmas.
I like it...but I guess if it's very cold where you live, your head/ears could get coldView attachment 5287496
I know ppl are against the pineapple in the winter . But my hair is still growing-like weeds and moisturized ( it may not look like it in this picture - this wash n go was a little over 2 weeks old ) .

any of you cut your own hair? I have thick wavy/curly long hair. I get Deva cuts but she really doesn't spend much time on it so I've been cutting it less often with her. I'm wondering if with my hair being very long now (almost waist length when pulled straight) if the layers are that important. I've been trimming little bits off myself and last night had DH cut one piece that was hanging down.
I kinda hate to go cheap on my biggest asset but I don't know if I need these "Deva" cuts.
I used to do my own color and now I'm having that done in the salon. I guess that expense is the reason I'm cheaping out on the cuts.
yes, mine is easy to hide mistakes in too.....I've had times in years past (prior to dry cutting) when I got the triangle or pyramid shape but with it being so long now that doesn't happen. If I keep cutting it I think eventually it won't have layers. but a while back my hairdresser commented that I'd pretty much lost all my layers (with the prior hairdresser cutting it)....so maybe with long hair the layers aren't as importantI trim my hair every so often... when the ends are looking kinda scraggly. I haven’t gotten it professionally trimmed since like... 2016. I’m sure my hair is a few different lengths, lol, but it’s easy to hide it because my hair is usually half up or in a low ponytail, in twists.
