My hair shoulder length, I want to reach waist length again I just need someone to detangle it for me. :wow:

The longer it gets the less I wash it, and the lazier I get. I don't even cowash anymore.

I have super curly hair, when they are stretched my hair is to my shoulders. The longer my hair got from my BC the less I do with it. I wash it less too because right when it gets to where I want it, it's time to wash again. I am so lazy as well.

I really need to do better. :to:

I'm a 3c and it's so thick, it takes me damn near two hours to fully detangle my shyt. I don't use combs, I finger detangle using coconut oil. It's miserable. :skip:

My niece and nephew are going through it now..But, tbh, although it's the parents' fault I don't even harbor any hard feelings.

It takes a lot to teach a language and unless some1 is home all the time to do it, or they don't know English and only speak the native tongue the kids won't get it.

I would go through this. I'd try to teach them Spanish but that shyt is super time consuming. And kids aren't receptive to that. Especially when they know that they can just talk to you in English and be understood.

My strategy will be to never talk English around my kids. I'm just going to be a foreigner to them.

:smh: + :laugh: Sounds like they just didn't feel like it, especially considering they only use it for secrets.

My Dad is half Louisana Creole but as far as I know he ain't speak Louisana Creole French. Just English at home, and raised voices and extension cords.

ok. Thought they both spoke the same language. That's kind of different - less likely to have an immersive environment.

It was always my moms though, she would only threaten to do it and never went through with it cause I was pops only daughter and he let me rock. :ehh: But she'd say a few things in Amharic here and there, which I only figured out recently meant devil child curse. :pachaha: Man I gave her a hard ass time.


@concise plus I grew up with exclusively with my African American side.
