Guys drink at least 2-4L of water too! Drinking water helps keep the moisture in your hair for a longer time, but if you need to pee every 17 minutes, you should considering getting more potassium in your body. Foods and drinks for potassium includes potatoes, bananas, and orange juice! Otherwise, Kozact, everything you said is definitely well said!

i’m somewhere between stage 2 and 3, hair’s kinda long but a lot of shrinkage as it’s 4C. i don’t know whether the lengths you corresponded to each stage are like pulling your hair straight (actual length) or just letting it be and basing it off how long it appears to be when all curled up. i’d say stage 2 though. some problems i run into though are even sleeping with a bonnet or silk pillowcase i’ll still wake up with my hair feeling dry no matter what products i have in it because when i sleep my hair gets flat and it just ends up being all matted together and stiff in the morning. that compounds the issue of trying to grow your hair whilst also maintaining a neat look, i then have to comb my hair out to make it look neat if i have to go somewhere, or even if i’m not going anywhere i feel like i should comb it out in the shower so it’s not all dry and matted together, i try pulling it out gently with my fingers before combing it but i feels dry. so basically my issues are, sleeping flattens my hair, hair still feels dry even with products and a bonnet, and i HAVE to comb my hair out often. can you or anyone in the comments who may have had similar issues especially when it comes to sleeping, tell me how y’all got over that hump. i feel like the definite best method is protective styles but i don’t do them often because that’s another thing i won’t get into right now because of the length of this comment.

[@nicolaskl9672]

I am in the same predicament, I have tried a lot of things leave-in or mist water before sleeping or sectioning my hair. None of the things work because of the shrinkage. I feel this a stage that a lot of people don't talk, I know we all have different hair but almost nobody talks about the morning dry shrinkage... At this point, in my case there are 2 things I can do, better nutrition and drink more water and protective styles. Like you protective styles is not something I can do all the time (for work and cultural reasons) but I really think this our only option because of our shrinkage we need to keep our hair straighten so it doesn't encumbers our progress and create breakage if anyone have any solution, I will gladly accept it.

[@d.jerome4011]

Get a blow dryer with a brush attached to it.

[@gamelord]

Same predicament.

[@555colyn]

I have grew my hair out multiples times this is normal. I’m in the same process too where I wake up and my hair is matted and it feels dry sometimes. Best thing to do is get a silk pillow case so it won’t take out all of your moisture in your hair. Also just spray your hair with water when it feels dry and matted when you wake up.

[@user-cu2wz2yw3p]

Yh my hair grew so much in days

[@zoya88281]

At last, I managed my dandruff and hairfall. First, Apply hair oil and leave it for the night or for a minimum of an hour for it to work. Secondly, Wash it off with shampoo. Next, Put on conditioner that you prefer to the roots of your hair. I used littleeextra cococonion anti hair fall kit for these steps as it's gentle and organic, and is known gud for hair fall control. Incase if you also have dandruff, apply lemon juice on your scalp at least once a week before shampooing and wash it off about an hour later.

Guys also use gel if ur hair is big enough to be styled, use gel it helped me with my hair growth but not everyone’s hair will do the same. So use styling gel and just use it everyday until ur hair is too big for it like mine. 👍

How would I style my hair to make it look nice and round without picking it? I’m in between stage 2 and 3 btw. If I don’t pick it and just use my fingers it always looks rough and nasty asf lol.

[@_quixote]

I used to be addicted to picking my hair lol, since the pick makes it look neat and have more volume. But it's not worth it since it causes breakage. I know using your fingers doesn't look as good as when you pick it, but you just have to bare with it. Reduce the times you pick your hair per week, and cut it down from there

[@sonymicronin]

@@_quixote Alr my brother I’ll take your advice and reduce the picking. Yeah I mainly do it because it makes my hair have more volume and gives it that nice round look but I can definitely see breakage every time I do it. Might just have to deal with the and buy and beanie and caps for now because I hate how it looks so much when it’s not picked I look homeless man
