Hey Readers!

I am LOSING my mind!

ok heres how it started....
when i was 14, i decided to Dye my hair a GREAT Auburn - Red something...i wanted to get braids or something and i didnt have enough hair. so i cut it all off... but it looks great when its short and red...I love it... but my mom dosent... so i didnt re-dye until the next year. the same thing happened, but after dyeing, my hair got really dry... so i Cut it off again and now im 16,and my hair can wrap around my thumb half way- i guess an inch. so what i really wanna do is grow it out to about maybe 3inches and put some curls in it(texturizer) and then some highlights... but for now i am planning on getting a texturizer and making it wavy while it grows ( im getting the Doo- Gro tomorrow). but my hair is really frizzy and curly now (it looks like dark brown carpet and you can see no curl! )

ANY advice at ALL would be so Helpful , i would be ready to Pay someone to tell me what to do before i cut all of my hair off.

p.s: im a guy with natural hair [its been through a lot]

Thanks!

OKAY...DONT CUT YOUR HAIR, JUST GET THE ENDS TRIMMED. USE A MILD RELAXER...LIKE MOTION`S OIL MOISTURIZER RELAXER FOR DRY HAIR. START FROM THE INSIDE, MEANING GET MORE SLEEP, DRINK MORE WATER, TAKE QUALITY VITAMINS AND MINERALS AND AMINO ACIDS. THAT IS FIRST THING YOU DO. THEN...JUST REFRAIN FROM DYING YOUR HAIR FOR NOW...NOT FOREVER BUT FOR NOW. BUY SOME WILD GROWTH OIL AT YOUR LOCAL BEAUTY SUPPLY STORE...WHEN YOU GET, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS CLOSELY. ALSO GET SOME CARROT OIL FOR DRY ENDS OF YOUR HAIR. YOU CAN USE MOISTURIZING SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER...LIKE INFUSIUM 23. GET A HOT OIL TREATMENT TWICE A WEEK FOR YOU.
