Can't get my kitchen

Can\'t get my kitchen

to lay down. I use WGO, Surge and my oil mixture, but nothing seems to help. What do some of you ladies do to help lay the kitchen down? I even tie my hair with a satin or silk scarf at night and that doesn't help /images/graemlins/crazy.gif. Help me please help me I don't know what to do! /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Why don't you try using something besides oil? Try something like Let's Jam or Elasta QP Glaze.

Beverly Johnson's creme for edges is extraordinary. (That's not the exact name of the product, but there are threads about it on LHCF.)

Apply it before bed when you brush your edges the way you want them to stay. Then tie your scarf to restrain the hair and to trap your body heat. In the morning, the edges will hold. The hold lasts all day, and there's not much buildup.

I usually wear my hair in a ponytail, phonytail, assisted bun or a fake bun. My hair is a little past my shoulders.

The only thing that lays my kitchen down good is some Elasta QP Mango butter! Have you tried using that?

Water and a good brush may help.

yes I have and it didn't work. I'll just go back to using gel and tying my hair in the back for 15 mins. before I leave the house.

Applying a tiny bit of Kemi Shea Butter pomade while hair is wet and letting air dry might help - it worked for me. Give it a try, can't hurt!

I have this Hairline Creme which works very well and is moisturizing. I don't use it that often though for my nape area. I keep my nape in two braids which is hidden by my hair. I haven't relaxed the roots since early this year as a kind of "challenge" so I can grow it out. It's growing along nicely too.
