Hi all,

as you will have guessed - I've just joined the formum. So ty all in advance for any welcomes

I've joined here partly to be party of your group here, and also because I'm about to start my training to become a hairdresser (in 1 1/2 hours). My aim is to own my own salon with 10yrs, and in which I will encourage ppl, who may not be about 18 who wish to get into this industry. How hard has it been to get a job !!! Still on the road now, so look out world

So thats my quick hello - good to meet you all.

 

Aim to become all you can be, and enjoy your journey whilst becoming it.

Hi people!! This is fawnsweet... as in fawn-sweet  I just joined today.

I have ethnic hair as I was born and raised in india. My hair is dark dark brown or black when wet and it's past my bra line when i straighten it and just above or right at the line when it's natural.. it'z got a mixture of natural wave and curls.

I wanna know how you guys put up your pics on here.

 cuz i'd love to see people who're posting and just wanna return the favour. Also, i have some questions on my hair and it might be easier if people can actually see it

So thanx for the welcome I'm soooooo glad to be here. ciao!!

Hi every one Im new to this site today. I live in the uk and had my first hair extensions in today as i was sick of feeling dowdy with my shoulder length frizzy hair. I had 3 rows of human hair weaved in onto a corn row base and i absolutlyh love the look but have an issue tonight. I had my extensions put ibn about 4 hours ago and they feel really tight and are making my head ache. I assunme this is normal as Im not used to it and the corn rows are so tight. W"ill these ease off as time goes on. Im just panicking that they have been done too tight its only really my top row that is causing me discomfort and would really appreciate a quick reply fronm someone in the know. Thanks

Hey, I'm new and love what I've read so far.  I need help covering stubborn gray.  My hair grows fast and to be honest I am a bit concerned about the chemicals.  I always seem to be dying roots.  I do it at home and would like a way to incorporate the gray even if is means having it professionally done.  I don't mind some gray at all.  Any suggestions and hello to all!  Thanks! BSS

 Hi my name is Michelle and I have been a hairdresser for 13 years in virginia. I am a caucasion female who is very interested in extensions. I have been wearing the glue in ones for a while now and I would like to try something else. I have called a few salons in my area but I would hate to pay 1,400.00 dollars to have it done when I know one of my stylist at my salon could do it. Does anyone  have any suggestions on what the best type of hair extentions would be for me with my extremely fine and thin hair. I just love when I wear extensions because I look like I actually have hair.

Welcome Crazyshell well heres some techniques that I can think of beside the bonding and sew-in weave, Theres the fusion, strand by strand, mylasion (sp), mini links, clip-ons, and integrations..also there are the infamous lacefront wigs. HTH

Hello all.  I'm new.  :)  I am constantly pondering what to do with my hair next.  I've had it dyed all sorts of colors and last year I cut it all off for Locks of Love.  I am currently working on growing my hair back out (I want it longer for my wedding next October.) and have been experimenting with side swept bangs.  I'm not sure if I like them compared to my old bangs.  I shall be posting about that in general hair talk momentarily.

Hoping to find a great hair salon/stylist in or around Puyallup,WA (did notice that GIGI lives here as well) and had hoped to be able to email her or? We are military and I own a mortgage company here.  But unfortunately couldn't get my hairstylist to relocate from CO to WA :)

I have very Wavy thick hair about 18inches long now and have it foiled with both blonde/brown throughout. 

thanks in advance for your time,

Sincerely

Hello, LA woman here, fresh outta beauty school after 20 yrs in and out of the salon business. 

I found this site by googling different hair questions and I'd always find myself back to this messege board.  It happened a few times before I noticed this is where I always found my answers.  I love it!  All the regular posters have been so helpful and cool; very generous indeed!  thanks to all.   BRAVO!

Hi all,

 

I'm Lianne. 24 y/o who works in Marketing. I have layered collarbone length hair. It's got some natural wave to it, but recently I've permed it. The look I was going for was Botticelli Curls  but it's not quite there. I'm always interested in hair, make up, clothing so I'm excited to become a part of this site.  I'm also looking for a way to love my curly/wavy hair and have an easy time with it.

Can't wait to get to know all of you!

Goal Length add 3 inches to collar bone length hair

I just found this sight and it's great.  I thought I was the only constantly messing up my hair.  I'm always trying to make it better. But I wind up making it worse!

 Hi there good  morning everyone. My name is Lucille.

I am going to be 39 in two weeks Nov 2nd :).

I have the worse hair I feel. Its very fine and very wavy and can be curly also when its humid out. I am trying to grow out a very short cut I had a few years back and its taking forever.  My hair sheds so much and down right falls out when I wash and condition it. I used to wash it and condition it daily but I do not do that any more, I also don't blow dry it straight anymore either I leave it alone and put in a head band.  

I want a change but I am scared to do anything because everytime I do I am very unhappy after I wash my hair.

I take thyroid medication and meds for low pressure. I have an underactive thyroid.

If anyone has any suggestions how I can make my hair more healthy and grow some without it falling out all the time, Id appreciate any comments.

I am also for the most part a vegetarian and have been since I was a young child.

Thanks so much LitteLu038
