The hair journey(and how you can begin yours by using the product I talk about)

Hi everyone I'm new to the Black Hair Place site but I can tell you all my hair journey from hot mess to silky almost-down-my-back luscious.First of all I LOVE my hair.It's my glory it's my shine.But for many years I've wanted it long way down my back.But I didn't know how to get it that way.My mom was doing my hair she used Motions Hair Relaxer(I'm sure a lot of you have heard of THAT product)I was fustrated- I wanted long hair!And I had medium length hair.I wanted it silky but it had coarseness to it.I wanted it to be able to move and flow but when I shook my head it stayed in one place.I tried greases on my scalp,hot oil treatments,different shampoos(my mom can tell you a lot about that it was her money I was using),different conditioners,I got a lot of hair books and tried their remedies...one suggested to don't blow dry your hair after you wash it.Well I did that and believe me when I tell you it was a hot mess(my hair)One suggested to don't use oils and I tried that but my hair started breaking.One said to don't press it...my hair was another hot mess.All of this was going for me at the age of I'll say at twelve.At that time I made my mom stop taking care of my hair because I was going by the different hair books and plus I said that she wasn't "doing it right".Then I went to the Caucasian hair products thinking that since their hair is long that my hair could be long.Well Dove and Nexxus dried my hair out plus I wasn't pressing it or applying any oils on it(whoo!I'll never go down that path again)That phase ended,I allowed my mom to take care of my hair.But after a while my mom noticed breakage in the back of my hair.We used Motions Hair relaxer, I switched from Motions shampoo and conditioner to the product my mom used which was Olive shampoo and Olive conditioner.But my hair was breaking in the back.It didn't look it because I have a lot of hair.So my mom decided that she had to do what she had to do.Take me to the hair stylist.In the past me and my mom had a bad experience with the hair stylist when I first had my hair relaxed(long story)when I was eight.But there I was in the month of March this year at fourteen years old having my hair relaxed professionally at the Wal-Mart Smart Style by a woman who knew a lot about hair and believed in keeping it healthy so it could grow.Smart Style uses Mizani hair products which I found out are to be one of the best producs.After she was done and had flat ironed it I looked in the mirror and saw a black girl with silky haIr.She said that I had severe breakage and had deep conditioned it.I have medium length hair(I've always had)and now my hair is approaching down my back.I have faith in my dream of long hair because I go to the beautician every two weeks.Not me or my mom does my hair now-we leave that up to Christina the stylist.My hair is silky...something I could have never achieved while doing it at home.The most important thing is the product she told me about...Wild Growth.This is the best product in the world.This product will grow your hair.Down here in N.C they keep the product locked because people have been stealing it.My hair length and sillkiness is credited to Wild Growth.My hair will be down my back in no time...it practically already is.My camera is currently broken but as soon as I get another one I'll post pictures of my amazing hair length.Wild Growth is hair product gold..get it everyone and begin YOUR long hair journey!!!
