Same! I'm still struggling to grow the little edges I have. My dermatologist said it was Alopecia so hopefully next time I see her, she can give me more treatment for it

it's the worst! My hairline receded so badly I thought my forehead was just getting bigger 😭I hope your derm helps you out, castor oil and flat twisting the front + edges worked really well for me, I've been forgetting to do it recently so they're falling out again🤦🏾♀ @@cierral1170

how did it go?
A cute hairstyle, defiantly going to try this. I can relate to your hairline. Ponytails can be deadly 😅
The orginator also flat ironed the hair so that way you get rid of the texture, so it doesn't tangle as much.🤗

Tip: dip the hair in extremely hot water before you braid it so it can be flowy
my first impression was "a little chaotic but down to earth"

yes, this style is cost efficient and cute !! 💖✨
I recommend putting some Jamaican castor oil with a few drops of rosemary oil. Apply it on your edges twice a week. Scalp massages might also help
Super cute!

Pro tip if you trim your ends before you get braids, it will help your hair grow better.

Girllll having a thin hairline is no joke!! I'm currently using a bunch of things to help it grow and i've seen an improvement. i'll do a video on this because it's helped me grow somewhat of my hair back 💘
Does blow drying it before you curl actually make a difference

As i used expressions the hair looked good for around 2-3 weeks. But you can always re curl the hair in hot water if it starts to frizz 💕
I think you should give yourself a full year and just wear braids or maybe some sort of crochet style. Stay away from anything where you have to manipulate your hair just leave it completely alone I’m telling you it will do wonders because my hair grew so much when I left it alone for a year or so, as soon as I went back to doing ponytails and everything else that’s when my hair started to break off again because I was doing it on a consistent basis. I have faith that your hair will grow healthy. Also look into hair oils that’s for rejuvenating the hair follicles.
Did you prep the hair like she advised?
From TikTok
Hey Hun, you did a great job, I like how you added the hair, your way looks easier. They look great. New subscriber ❤, I do have a channel also, pass by and show some love Sis ❤❤
What brand of hair did you use??

What length of hair did you use ?

Don’t you dip your real hair in hot water too because the braid starts so high?

My real hair is short and because of how I braided up the hair (into 4 sections) it will only curl the braided part

great work but i think you may need to take a break on braids. it could be too much tension on your hairline.

I've cut my hair off before to do exactly that, if i don't see progress then I'll cut it very short
So, microbraids?
I've been dying to try this since I saw it on tik tok. Has it lasted so far- or does it get tangled a lot? I don't want to spend all that time braiding if I can't make it last more than a week 🥲
