Bless up* I've been growing my hair since sept 13 after 20+ years if cutting my hair every 3 days/shaving. I'm growing my hair no shampoo or combing sinc then and going the natural FreeForm route. I use the BS wash and no ACV because my hair is soft an I feel the ACV is making my hair too soft for locking.I only have about 1/4 a 1/2 inch of hair growing and I feel it getting dry in some places on the way to baby loca I hope soon but the top of my head us still soft. I shower everyday and just wet my hair and air dry it. I do the BS was 2 times a week. I bought sea salt and wanted to start using this to dry up/loc up my hair quicker. What measurement do you use in ratio of SS to water and how many times a week is recommended! Info and guidance is very appreciated! One love* I am also African American!

generally a good mixture is a table or teaspoon of sea salt to each cup of water. put in a spray bottle, but dont spray your scalp. with your short hair this may be difficult. maybe try putting sea salt in your baking soda mix when you wash. you may just need to give your hair more time to grow.

you definately dont want to over dry and should do acv even if weak

it can be lil soft and dread tho lengh will help the most just let it grow

theres not alot to do to sl\peed it up when length is the 1 thing that will dread it faster

Thanks SE! I just wanted to check! I was afraid the ACV would make it too soft! remainiing patient thru the hair growth stage probably got me a lil anxious and concerned! I've been doing the BS rinse like 2-3days a week with oils since I started growing back my hair sept 13th. And I did the ACV as well but not the last 2 weeks bcause of theconcern of my hair being soft. Only on the top of my head. But I will do ACV should it just be a splash..like a couple of cap full ofVinegar to a gallon of water? I shower everyday and just rinse my hair in the shower that's it besides the BA rinses I do 2/3 times weekly. I know I shouldn't touch rub my hair with my hands so not to disturb the dread process but I'm concerned when it' started to dread that i will have matted flat congos? Can this be because I'm not looking for congos! Natural FreeForm but no congos but I guess I will cross that bridge or better ask you what to do when my hair starts to dread babies! :)
