Hi Elizabeth,
I would just like to say a big thank you for the advice you have previously provided me with and in general for making the information in your ebook available to women of colour like myself, who have experienced hair problems. This is my success story:
"In early 2006, the hair at the nape of my neck on the left-hand side of my head broke off really badly. In all the years of relaxing and treating my hair, this was the first time I had seen it in this awful state. I put it down to the stress I was under as I hated my job at the time and was finding it extremely difficult to find work in my chosen field with limited experience.
At first, the hair that broke was just a small section and then it kept breaking until it became a triangle-shaped patch that was about 4 inches high by about 3 inches wide! Luckily, the length of my hair was past my shoulders and so I could hide the patch if I had my hair down.
My hairdresser suggested putting a few tracks of weave there and leaving it alone. I wasn't keen on this at first as I hated the idea of having a weave in my hair but I did it any way and the hair grew a little but it wasn't significant. I ended up taking it out after a week when I washed my hair and the weave got matted. I was getting more and more depressed every time I looked at the patch in the mirror - the length of the hair was shorter than 1/2 an inch and the patch was more or less bald! My hairdresser didn't know what to do either.
Finally, at my wits end and after trying all these different hair products I came across the Black Hair Growth Secrets article in the local paper and decided it was worth a try. I bought the ebook...and adopted a new hair care regime in April...I went on holiday in June and made a decision to get my hair hair done in braids as I knew the weather would be too hot for me to have my hair down...
It wasn't until 2 weeks after I got back from holiday when I took the braids out and got my hair relaxed in mid-July that I realised just how much the hair had grown. It was around 1 1/2 inches long and it was thick! I couldn't believe it. I can't tell you how many times I kept looking in the mirror amazed at this tuft of hair sticking out and I still do.
The patch of hair that was bald for over a year is now about 2 1/2 inches long and still growing.
This program really works!..It makes me wonder why someone didn't give us this information a long time ago?...
Again many thanks and praise to your hard work, research and advice. I will forever be indebted.
Kind Regards,
Meleisha Sealy
