Scab hair?
Hi ladies,
Just wondering if any of you have noticed scab hair or your texture changing as you transition. I remember in my first 2-3 months my new growth felt awful (hard and dry) and some say it's scab hair (damaged hair follicles from the relaxer that causes hair to grow out with a protective coating). I'm not sure if it was that or the fact I'm just better about deep conditioning my hair and taking care of it. I know some don't believe in scab hair but something was going on early in my transition! Glad things are better.
Anyone else?

you know, that makes a lot of sense. my roots were also pretty tough, but i just assumed that would be my texture. now that I've bc'd, my overall texture is softer
