A question on permed to natural hair.?

i have decided to stop perming my hair and go natural again. the perm damaged and broke off my hair really bad. my hair was passed my shoulders before the perm, and now it above my shoulders. while my hair is growing out, cuz i don't want to chop it off, what all can i use on it to make it healthier?without being expensive or ordering off the internet, what all can i buy? my last perm was on 11/14/07 but i washed my hair with a mixture of things( food things) that i put together and it stripped some of my perm. my hair at the roots got wavy and my ends got thick. I'm hoping to just trim my ends for a while and keep my hair in some kind of braids for a while. what can expect happening to my hair as it grows out?

Nothing! Just leave it alone and give it time to heal. I got a perm and all my hair fell out. I'm african american and native american...soo I don't have that true nappy nappy roots, you know? Some ppl just aren't meant for perms! Try to rock your natural hair...I use half-wigs...they're cute and inexpensive and I look like I get my hair done all the time!

Take care of your hair. Wash it once a week. I like to use Doctor Miracle's...good stuff. Condition it. Grease it. Wear hats when you go in the sun, soo your drak hair won't fade.

Good luck!
