Why does my hair not grow in some parts?

my hair used to grow evenly all across my head and I got a buzz cut and it grew back like this. This is 6 months of growth and my hair has never grown this slow. Also my hair is uneven all across my head and it also breaks so easily. This never used to happen to me before even without a consistent routine and i’ve tried everything to grow my hair out more healthy and nothing seems to work.

Will Brazilian wool small to medium twists ruin my hair

Hello! So basically, my go to hairstyle is mini twists however, I don’t quite like how short my hair looks with no hair extensions. I wanted to try Brazilian wool, but just now feeling it, it kinda feels a little rough. Do you think Brazilian wool twists could ruin, or damage my natural hair?

Thank you!

Postpartum hair

Hello!

I am 3 months postpartum and my edges have started to vanish. Took my twists out 2 weeks ago (that’s my go to hairstyle I usually leave hair out for a week then re braid). I am scared about edges getting worse… I take vitamins etc but wondering whether I should get a silk press or twists again or just leave it slicked back and natural? My hair is chin length and v soft so want to spruce it up!

What hair type is this and any tips?

I've been struggling for some time to figure what hair type I have. My hair is low porosity and doesn't stretch much beyond where it is rested now. Nowadays I've been taking my shot at the wash n go style. So im wondering if you all can decipher my hair type and give me tips and tricks on how to keep these luscious hairs of mine, curly and defined!

Tended headed

So I have been wearing my hair natural for about a year now. Every now and then I’ll wear wigs. Now when I wash and blow dry my hair I have become so tender headed. Is this possible that I have become tender headed from lack of manipulation to my hair?

i have headaches everytime my hair's not down

Hi everyone, since few months i've noticed that everytime i tie my hair up, for example a high puff bun, a pineapple, a slick bun, my head starts hurting so much, even if i don't apply tension with the hairband

sometimes i even use a satin small scarf so as to not tighten my scalp, it doesn't matter, the top of my head specifically hurts extremly much, and when i undo my hair and let it down, it continues to hurt for hours.

i have thought about chopping off my hair to avoid this situation, even though it's already short, because maintaining a medium curly fro takes time, but short short hair wouldn't look good on me

does anyone know why is this happening to me? this wasnt the case a year ago, i don't know what to do
