Congrats Anjana on your new blog! It’s fun reading you articles. Keep ’em coming girl!! 🙂 🙂

Hi Anjana,pls tell me about ir haircut.. Is it layers or anything more specific?

Hi. Your blogs are really helpful and I was really happy to know I was doing some of those techniques by simply defying mom’s instructions😜
But these past 2 months my hairfall has started real bad. I didn’t face this problem before but now its so much that my hair is quarter of what I used to have. No my eating habits or hair wash pattern or water has not changed. I’m not alergic to anything and am not in stress so I really have no clue what’s causing it.
If u can help in any way with tricks to reduce hairfall or grow it back pleaseeeee tell me:)

Hello,
Firstly I think your hair is absolutely GORGEOUS! Such amazing texture. Beautiful curls👍
I’m a curly haired girl myself and for the longest longest longest time I’ve been desperately craving for longer hair. I’m unapologetically over-ambitious in this aspect because I dream of attaining tailbone length someday. I’m a little below the nape right now, as in almost close to shoulder length. 😒 I know right….
So anyway, I’ve been reading a lot of articles online on length retention. It’s not about the hair your scalp sprouts but it’s about retaining the length one has achieved. This theory makes perfect sense to me because I had had my locks completely bleached back in early 2015. And I successfully managed to grow out all the bleached length by early 2017 I suppose. Yet my hair length remained stagnant😫. With this I deduced that while my hair has no problem emerging from the roots, it’s failing at retaining length, the reason being steady breakage at the ends, which I’m sure most curly haired girls will relate to. I was yet to find the culprit behind this awful breakage. I assumed my hair wasn’t conditioned well from root to tip and maybe doing things like consuming biotin and vitamin b complex capsules, pre-pooing with oils, hennaing my hair, deep conditioning on a regular basis, eating almonds ever morning, etc would eventually stop or significantly decrease breakage. These things will surely pay off. But despite being blind to the obvious cause for so long, I occurred to me in a flash that I see bits of my hair ends on my t-shirts every time I detangle my hair with my comb. And i don’t even use a seamless, wide toothed one! These tiny bits of hair I lose every single time I comb-detangle have stopped me from having long hair my whole life!!!!😖 Then came to me this wonderful saviour of a concept called finger detangling. As long as you’re gentle enough, there can be zero to almost no breakage. Discovered this just yesterday and have started doing this since this morning. ZERO BREAKAGE!!!! I mean ZERO….NADA!!! I’m super super excited that this practice can FINALLY help me achieve my hair goals. I’ll make sure to be as gentle as possible from my end while detangling.

Hi!
My daughter got proper ringlet curls after her ‘mundan’. So I came across this whole CG way. Now even I chopped off my chemically straightened hair and embraced my curls. I don’t comb her or my hair when it’s dry. But I get asked that how will you get blood circulation on the scalp. Combing helps in blood circulation. I was at a loss as to how to answer. Can you answer this question for me?.
Thanks and regards.

Hi Anjana, I love your blog and I think it’s the only good resource I have to refer to how to take care of my wavy hair. I only comb my hair when it is wet after washing it and I wash my hair once a week. Since the last one month my hair has been falling a lot and I see huge clumps of hair in the shower after I wash them. My mother says that my hair is falling as I only comb them once a week so there is no blood circulation in the scalp. I was wondering is that true, can not combing my hair cause this sudden spate of hairfall? I have never lost SO much of hair and I’m really worried about it now. Should I start combing my hair regularly?

Hi Anjana, I’ve recently started detangling my hair in the shower post applying conditioner. But this disrupts my curl pattern and leaves me with frizzy, undefined curls after the shower despite scrunching. Earlier, I used to detangle it only once with oil (as pre-poo). Please advise?
