I wish this place had more knowledge on fine hair
I have posted my fine, type 4 virgin natural hair here several times asking for advice, and I’ve been hit with comments like "your hair has major heat damage," "girl, cut all that off and start over," and "it’s dead, I’d shave it if I were you."
The thing is, my hair isn’t dead or destroyed at all. My hair is extremely fine type 4 hair, so a lot of times our strands can look stringy, dull, or stiff. I even use natural methods for gray hair. I just want our community to get a better understanding of how fine hair works. Coming here for wash-and-go tricks and tips is really amazing, but it just sucks seeing people post about how heat-damaged my hair looks when I've never used heat.
