Opinions on Birth Control Pills?


Alternative Lifestyles and Subcultures

Sorry, I do have to disagree on this point. it is very dangerous to not have regular cycles. If the endometriallining is not shed at least every few months that can lead to precancerous cells.

I have PCOS and for many years had very erratic cycles. The doctors willrecommend BC to regulate but I feel that I taking BC as a teen is what in fact started my hormonal imbalance. We were created exactly how we were supposed to be and when we tamper problems will arise.

Quitting smokingcigarettes and going vegetarian (and eventually vegan) is what regulated my cycles. I now have a 35 day cycle. This isn't your text book 28 day cycle but still in a normal range.

If we are conscious of what we put in our bodies then they will respond properly. Why create problems by ingesting harmful chemicals and hormones then in turn add more chemicals and hormones to fix it???

Hairstylist that wants dreads. Any other hairstylists that can relate?


Introduce Yourself

I know this may sound off but....have you considered another career? I became licensed in 1994 (showing my age lol). Over the years I left the business, I came to realize it just wasn't for I.

Your concern is a very valid one. This will create a problem for you professionally. Not only will it cause a problem with walk-ins, you might loose regular clients. Please don't view my comment as negative, only honest.

I am not trying to discourage you from growing locks, in fact I STRONGLY encourage that you take the journey. It is life changing! I also recommend going natural. I started with TnR and I deeply regret it because I feel i cheated Iself. If you do still decide to TnR don't make the mistake I did. I made mine extremely tight (guess that comes from years of corn rowing lol). I feel the tightness has slowed down the process.

Bless!

Dr Bronner's Bar Soap ?


Dread Products

give thanks gentlemen!

@SE fortunately the area I live in has soft water, so I will try the bar next wash. From what I see all the dreadlocks shampoos contain beer which conflicts with a vow I have taken. Is there any that do not contain beer?

@Tim I do plan to try oils in the BS wash (I don't use ACV, my hair is naturally oily and soft). The oils are a little pricey so that's for another time.

Dr Bronner's Bar Soap ?


Dread Products

So I am 10 months in and have tried several different cleansing methods. Baking soda has been the best so far, been using it for a few months now. I LOVE how it works with my hair, only problem I miss fragrances.

I bought a bar of tea tree Dr Bronners soap this afternoon. What is the best way to use this?

Tnr'd dreads that aren't unravelling?


General Questions

I too tnr'ed way to tight and 9 months in some still haven't unraveled....rrrr...lol. So that patience I didn't think I would have I forced Iself to have. When I finished tnr I promised iself I would do NOTHING after and I have stuck to it and would recommend you do the same. It is all part of the journey, to allow our locs to come as they will.

Blessings in the new year :)

Adding dreads gradually?


Dreading Methods

That is exactly how I did mine. It was over a course of 2 months that I did TnR.......and I deeply regret it. As a matter of fact I just posted a discussion about that the other day. Just stop everything and let nature take its course. I feel I cheated Iself of seeing the beautiful transformation they would have taken on their own. It has been about 9 months now w/o anything except washing. The TnR did not speed things up in fact I feel it slowed it down. Please just leave your hair alone. You WILL love that choice in the future.

Bless!

REGRET


General Talk

I need to add that I don't view those who choose TnR as vain...just a view of Iself and the reasons I chose to go that route.

REGRET


General Talk

Give thanks to ALL for the love and encouragement. Honestly just voicing my feelings has allowed I to let go ofsome of the regret and opened the door to enlightenment. I see the TnR as the final act of vanity and the beginning of being who I was created to be....one large step on I trod out of babylon.

Starting over is not an option for I took the vow of the Nazarite.

And yes, Soaring Eagle I mostdefinitely will try to encourage others.

More love and blessings to All!!!

REGRET


General Talk

My dread journey began with doing TnR over a 2 month time, few here few there. At the time I didn't see free form as an option now 9 months in I deeply regret that I didn't begin naturally.From the initial TnR I have done zeromaintenanceother than wash lol. I LOVE my locs and the progress they have made. This is why it hurts my spirit to have anything negative attached to them (the regret).

Please help I to move forward....
