Ok so I did my big chop 7mo ago and I am loving my hair. When I first cut my hair I put a color in it. Well I decided that the colr made my hair look dry and no matter how much I moisturized it still looked dry. Well so I decide that I was not going to color it any longer and I have not had it done in about 5mo. So now I noticed that my hair is shedding a lot. I spoke to a girl that I know who is also natural and she said that it is normal because it is winter time and I shouldnt worry. Well I am. I have been deep conditioning like a maniac. I dont know if I should cut my hair or should expect this breakage because it is winter. Also if I cut my hair how much should I cut off. Maybe I should try changing products. I currently use Cream of Nature Rosemary and Lemongrass cream leave in deep conditioner and I use cholesterol to deep condition and VO5 to cowash. Please give me any suggestion that you can. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Lawana
I know it's too late as far as the color, but maybe in the future,when you get your hair healthier, I use a rinse instead of chemeical color (I'm not sure which u used, though) which my beautician assures me if done properly, it will be fine to use permanent color, I just opt not to. I am not a professional ofcourse, but if what you are using isn't helpin, I do suggest that you change products- I've only been natural since May of 2009, but I have changed products several times, and can say maybe in the last 4 to 5 months that I have pretty much maintained steady with what I use, and been fairly happy.....Our hair comes in such a variety of textures and multi-textures that it's so hard to get single advice that will help all- You really have to feel out what works with certain textures.....Honestly with the trimming- personally with kinky hair- I don't think I'm bold enough to trim my own yet, so for my 1st trim I will probably let a professional do it, b/c the hair is so coily-If you opt to try yourself- Check out some of the natural how to sites........I know I probably haven't been a lot of help, but I just want you to be encouraged and to know that there are some ups and downs in this natural journey sweetie.......but don't give up- I do suggest you try a different conditioner/deep conditioner, and opt for professional trimming if finances allow.
Hope I helped a little
