My hair now

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

I recently wrote a post about my experience using lemon on my hair, and my

computer screen went blank just as I finished it! So, here goes again...

 

When I was younger, in high school, I was a bit bored and decided to go to

beauty college after school and on Saturdays. As I was in college prep

coursework in school, I had to promise my mother I would maintain my grades in

order to stay in beauty school in the evenings, and I did.

 

Still, starting at 16, I learned about hair. How to cut it, color it, style

it, perm it, and wash and condition it. It was great fun for a teenager.

And since then, I have taken " great " care of my hair - washing and

conditioning daily, styling, and spraying it with " natural hold " spray.

 

About a week ago, I decided to try not using any more shampoo, conditioner,

and spray. I began using lemon every other day and just rinsing with water

every other day. My hair looks and feels great. I've always had thick hair

with lots of body and wave (since my last child was born, I have much more

curl than just wave), but with the conditioners, my hair became overly soft and

flatter to my head, which I countered with spray. Now, with lemon, my hair

looks shiny, feels soft, and has it's natural fullness back - I don't spray

now because it doesn't need to be sprayed to look full.

 

When I first went raw a few years ago, my hair began to fall out and become

thin. Also the texture began changing to coarse and unmanageable. I was

concerned. I read it would return if I stayed raw and so, I decided to have

faith it would. It did. The thinning and hair loss slowed down and then my

hair began to thicken again. The texture change reversed also and my hair

returned to " normal " . I have been on and off raw, but all these changes

occurred

during one very long all raw period for me.

 

Lastly, a few days ago, I was sitting outside my daughter's dance class and

another mother walked up to me and said, " Wow, I love your hair that way! "

While I smiled and thanked her, there was nothing different than my new use of

lemon. I have not cut it nor have I styled it differently, yet she acted

like I had. Very cool.
