@Anomis ...Blackhairmedia is a whole different story.  I'm glad I forgot my password after day 2...one lady wanted to see before and after pictures of people with short hair and now have long hair.  Of course I went and posted...I returned back to see if I helped and she went off on me because she wanted to see extremely damaged hair and blah blah blah.   I quickly respnded that my hair has not always been healthy and all of the things my hair went through...o well. Her lost, not mine.  
 
Some people just can not accept kindness...
 
That favortism thing irks me as well....people need assistance, it does not take that much time to assist someone, but some people want to write a novel about why they rather the new comer search for the answer instead just being kind and guiding them in the right direction. And within that novel, the members could have written the information needed...they just wasted time typing a bunch of hogwash.

I had the same experience with Black Hair Media.
Favoritsm, boot lickin' and nobody wanted to answer questions, bullies given to much say so on who is a troll and who is not, whatever the hell that is I was a newbie, and was askin' a very direct, simple question, and some ignant' huzzy had the tamerity to step to me 'bout lookin at the archives, AND dONT ASK QUESTIONS THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN ASKED...HELL NAW! which some of the members admitted the archives were not very organized.........I vamped....I'm not that desperate for info it's not THAT serious to me....
No. not me, I'm not gone let it go, I got PO'd spoke my peace and got the hell out.

LOL @ Henna Thread comment
 
I've been a member of the LHCF for 4 years now. There is a great deal of information regarding hair health (and how to maintain a healthy body).  Yes there is drama there at times, but there is drama everywhere. I just don't post and move onto the next thread. 
 
I have noticed that there is favortism with certain members and when they start a new thread it seems like EVERY member post on it.  But when I notice newbies that start a thread, you will barely get 2 comments!! Confused

I haven't posted because I wanted to see what people would say. I am not a member of that particular site, however, I have recommended that site to alot of my friends/ family/ and even hairboard members because there is great information there to view. So, as you can see I lurk their often.
 
As with any site, even here, there will be threads where people disagree. It's not uncommon on forums for that to happen. So overall, I think LHCF is very insightful and is a step in the right direction for people who are looking for hair information that they have not been able to recieve before.

This thread is funny.  I have to say that I enjoy visiting LHCF.  It is very informative and have gotten my hair healthy again. Some of the ladies are over the top, but there is a lot of valuable information on there and other sites that help black women take care of their hair. I just renewed my membership over there. Smile

I guess my response was too general....LHCF does provide some great hair & product advice and I am noticing that people I see posting on sites I like post there so I am not saying that everyone there is mean but there have been some threads that have gotten pretty nasty and that was disappointing to me because most of us are on these hair sites because we don't receive support for our hair choices from family--friends etc. So I should say that I have seen some rotten apples but overall the site is good but I prolly still won't join

I just browse there. But Despite its having it fair share of issues, it does give help to women of color who want to grow their hair out or just have healthy hair.  So I have some respect for all the ladies there.
 
All fourms have their issues, but thats apart of the whole online fourm deal. But that are doing ther "job" wheather we like the way they do it or not.

I paid 10 for 2 years. I thought about the time I've been a member of other forums and decided to do 2 years.

What do I think? I think it's ghetto as he** and completely unorganized. Sorry. I get upset just thinking about it! lol. I really don't like it at all. I was very disappointed after paying my little $10. Someone is makin' a killin though! This site is organized. I don't have any issues finding a particular topic or even finding old posts. But in LHCF the same things get posted repeatedly because the site is so unorganized and doesn't really have ANY subcategories. So, you have thousands of people posting different topics under one main topic. Too frustrating!!!

Ciao!

Boooo to LHCF!
 
 
 
When did you 10 dollars? I only paid 5.
