Help!!! Hairline ruining esteem!!

My bf has been struggling with a receding hairline, but he has a long handsome face that looks so incredible with hair. These two corners have no hair, and it’s affecting his esteem!!!! Gents, please help me with solutions!!!! He can’t afford surgery yet. Any products that may work for instance? Please help. No barber ever seems to get it right either! (picture attached for reference, but this isn’t him, got it from google)

Thoughts on a Texture Release?

I have been a straight natural for about 1.5 years and I don’t see myself going back anytime soon. I find it much easier than the curly fros I use to wear and my hair has retained way better length than before. That being said it does get expensive to pay for silk presses very often. I do my hair at home sometimes, but it doesn’t come out as fresh and nice as the salon obviously. My issue is with my roots. They frizz pretty fast and i hate when they sweat out. It’s worse when I do my hair at home cause im not able to achieve that silky straight look I love. I’m thinking about a texture release and wanted opinions. My goal is to have my hair to be easier to straighten at home and I’m looking for that silky straight look. I have thick 3C hair that usually straightens out really well, but in its natural state it’s super thick and hard to blow dry (myself). Has anybody experienced getting a texture release? Any cons? Damage?

my hair growth after trying to grow it out for a few months :D

my hair is damaged so all i do is wear wigs but i’m at least happy about how fast my hair grows! i know its not that long but it still gives me more confidence. hopefully i can repair it with some hair cream or something but i just wanted to show my progress :)

My hair was a lot longer than i thought!!

First time getting my hair braided, feels good to finally be able to wear hats again lol! Anyone have any good recommendations for a hair tie? I use a normal cotton one but ive found it catches onto my braids and rips a little bit.

pixie cut molding foam

Hello. I’ve always worn my pixie just with my natural hair but i went to a salon and she gave me the pin curl style as i requested and she used molding foam and strips etc. well long story short is i don’t use products on my hair in my everyday life. i’m an all natural like homemade shampoos and oils girly. i need a way to do the molding with like an all natural option so im not putting on those chemicals and things on my head. that’s just not how i roll. is that achievable ? i’m loving this style

need help with sew in

getting a sew in tomorrow but the dyed bundles don’t match my hair color ☹️ once styled (planning to use perm rods for my leave out) do you think it will look blended/give ombré or am i doomed. i bobby pinned the hair to my head and it’s not styled so obviously won’t look like how it is but just worried

Whats the best hair style for 4a hair to hide corners

I've been shaving my head for a while because my hairline thinned out a bit but people keep telling me its not that bad and I should grow it back, and I miss my hair. What's a good style to mask the corners coz my forehead looks hella big on the left side lmao. Should I go afro?

(third pic is before it thinned)

Condescending comments or am I overthinking?

Not sure what sub this should go into, but I’d love to hear all perspectives: I got a sew-in a few weeks ago and the comments my stylist made has me feeling confused.

I typically do a shoulder length bob (sew-in that looks identical to what my hair would look like as a silk press). I got a sew-in longer than I usually do for an upcoming event and she says something along the lines of, “You got your big girl bundles” and “It took you ## years to finally add some length” etc. I just laughed it off.

I genuinely think I may be overacting/being too sensitive/overthinking her jokes. For context, she’s known me for several years where she can give me some tough love about my hair. But then the other part of me feels insecure where maybe she really believes that I’ve “upgraded” my look, and I’m not sure if I should take it as a (backhanded?) compliment.

New wig install ✨

Curled and styled my new wig myself for the first time last weekend, then went out to test how it held up!  Really happy with how it turned out!😆

Getting a sew for the first time, affordable hair recommendations?

Hair stylist recommended two packs but no specific brand, I’m looking to get 20' packs but I don’t know what I need to buy 😓 I’m looking to get my hair done like the picture anything helps preferably under $100 if possible
