Now we all know that every on earth is DIFFERENT even when put in categories (4a, 3c, 4c ) in my opinion I will never stop using oil or butters because that is the only thing I have used for 7 plus year to keep my strands healthy, Different oils have different benefits and when you Reap the benefits of those oil in your hair strands your hair begins to act different, it begins to hold on and Moisture better ,it’s softer, you’re length is retained. Aloe Vera has been my staple as well as castor oil along with others and essential oils. My hair is the proof that oil and butters work. But look. Sometimes it’s not what u use , but how your using it... let’s stop following trends and movements and start learning about our own individual strands and focus on what our hair is telling is rather than what another person is telling us to convey to our strands, your hair is long history or ancestors, each strand even each section having its own identity ( different textures in different areas) learn them. How about love and learn my hair movement..... if it’s not broke my friends don’t fix it
