LiveJournal will be undergoing maintenance on May 25, and might display errors until complete. Please see http://lj-maintenance.livejournal.com/ for details and updates.
There a lot of hair communities on LJ, but only a few devoted black hair and of those few, the main focus is on natural styles (dreadlocks, twists, etc.), but none for relaxed/straight styles. Hopefully this will become a resource for ethnic hair care with discussion and the exchange of different ideas & advice.
Please feel free to post questions, tips, product reviews, and especially pictures! Discussion of other aspects of ethnic beauty (cosmetics, skin care, etc.) is also allowed and encouraged.
Community rules:
01. Check the memories before posting (I know the memories aren't organized now but this will be a rule when they are).
02. Please tag your entries when posting. If you're unfamilliar with tags, read this. Try to keep tags short & sweet, i.e. "braids," "relaxer question," "product review," etc.
03. Please be respectful. This should be a given. Try to keep black_hair_etc a drama-free zone. Criticism/civil disagreements are to be expected [if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen] but personal attacks [i.e. insults on character, etc.] will not be tolerated.
