Been growing my hair now for 6 months. Started with about a 1/4 inch. My hair in thick and I can't part it in the middle, to puffy. I've been doing a side part for now. Will this effect me in the long run and did anyone else have this same problem? I have been just wearing a skull cap everywhere, is this a bad idea? I also been sporting it to work. I tried to take a pic of it but my camera is dead at the moment. I will get a pick up here soon. Thanks to all and this site because if it wasn't for you and this site I would be at the barber shop. I should aslo mention that I tried to grow my hair out 7 years ago and couldn't get past 8 months. Not this time, I'm going ALL the way.

hey eric. by the description you gave of your hair it sounds alot like mine. my hair is pretty thick and wavy. heres what i do. when i shower i shampoo/condition with garnier fructis sleek and shine. i make sure not to use hot water. afterwards try to squeeze out the excess water in your hair and slick it back with a wide tooth comb. plastic or wood.i prefer wooden. leave it like that and let it airdry. a fan helps but you can always sit outside as well. once it dries it kind of stays the way you combed it. it tames the poofyness a bit.once you hair starts getting longer it starts to get less poofy. im at 10 months now and it dosen't get as poofy as it use to at 4 months. hope this helps
