Aight, first off, i'm a guy . I started getting cornrows about a year ago, to the month. The first person that did it kind of shaped-up the front of my hair to make it look nicer; the hair closest to my forehead. But now...

It's never the same length as the hair right behind it, or anywhere on my hair for that matter! So much infact that my mom and the OTHER person that does my hair can't get all of the front hair whenever they put cornrows on. It leaves this ugly fuzz near the front that takes away from the look of the cornrows.

What's up with that? Someone plz tell me!

Aight.. heh.. one.

Hey D.S. Okay, I think it sounds like yo hair is

breaking off all over. You have to keep it

moisturized. Hot Six Oil is real good for that.

But have you clipped yo ends since you started

growin it. That's all I can think that could be tha

problem. I think you should get it trimmed and

use a scarf or doo rag to flatten tha fuzz.

Hope that I helped a little.

I don't think my hair is breaking off, because the front isn't braided. I don't have any problem with the hair on the rest of my head, it's just the front. Maybe vitamins?

It sounds like that whomever cut the front part of your hair cut too much.. Cuz if they edged it up right it shouldn't take that long for your hair to grow back... It just sounds as if they cut it back too far or something. See if you can get a stylist that can braid that small piece of hair with the rest of your hair..

Have you had an edge up since? I'm picturing cornrows witha mini afro in the front. If it's not that then go to a salon an get your ends trimmed your ends may be spit if not taken care of it can result in hair lost.
