it’s 2am nowive been brushing my hair for about 12 hours todaythe matt hasn’t gotten any betteri cant stop sobbingi dont know what to do i dont want to cut it out i love my hair so much its the one thing i like about myself i dont want thisi dont understand how this could happen i just forgot to brush my hair last night thats itand it started off as two small matts and i somehow turned it into the biggest matt ive ever hadi cant stop crying
>>41696784Just relax don’t do anything rash and if you have income go to a salon and they’ll sort it out with you
>>41696797there’s got to be a way i can fix this at home tonight : ( i cant stop fixating on this and i dont understand how im even supposed to sleep with half of my head like this, im so scared if i do sleep before fixing it that it’ll get worse and the minimal progress I’ve made with be all for nothingit hurts so bad and my scalp hurts when i turn my head in certain directions, i cant stop crying i just want this to be overive been in the bathroom for over 12 hours at this point and i feel like im in some sick nightmare, i just want it to end
>>41696784sorry nona, there isn't really a way around it. you gotta cut it, just a little off the ends. Trust me it will make it significantly easier to brush and it won't matt up on you. as you let your hair grow make sure to have it cut a little periodically, especially when you notice it tangling up more often. best of luck to you and your pretty hair <3
How do people get matted hairIs it a curly hair thing or somethingIve never had it happen to me and I don’t care for my hair at all
>>41696827you're having an episode, go to sleep and go to a professional if you can't get it fixed in the morning. you sound delusional.
>>41696797>>41696912This>>41696864Not this
>>41696912i kinda am having an episode i cant stop fixating on it and crying about it but i think ill heed your adviceim sorry i sound delusional i just really like my hair and im terrified that im going to have to cut the matted part and i have like a fixation where if my hair feels off it just really upsets me idk how to describe it but this has all been incredibly distressing my whole day has revolved around thisit seems like ill probably have to go somewhere to get this taken care of but I really dont want to im absolutely embarrassed and ashamed of it i look awful
>>41696936ill heed that advice thank youim going to eat ramen and then go to sleep now i just pray i can get this better
>>41696784oh my god Im so sorry I feel that I used to be in thebathroom for hours after work for similar reasons
>>41696973was there a way you could get it out? : (my matt is up towards the top of my lengths and it’s about a little under half the size of my palm, and it’s just so thick I don’t know what to do. i tried using conditioner with wet hair to try and get the lengths separated but it’s all just stuck in this big hair ball. it makes me so scared that it’s gonna have to be cut out and ill look disgusting
>>41697000no i had different issues regarding my face but it was slightly delusional
>>41696942I'm glad you decided to calm down nona, avoid doing anything with your hair until you wake up in the morning. you really should see a psychiatrist about this before your behavior escalates and you do something rash.
>>41697012…do you really think that my behavior is enough to warrant a psychiatrist? i mean that question genuinely…sometimes I just get hyper fixated on stuff a lot of it has to do with my hair i often get really upset when it gets tugged by stuff and I end up pulling at it a lot…so maybe i should see one but idk that just sounds really scarythank you for being kind to me and helping me calm down, im all alone all the time and that makes me cry but you made me feel better and less alone, thank you genuinely
>>41697042I get it, I have an obsessive streak as well. I was actually convinced I was loosing my hair when I was in my late teens, and would ritually pull my perfectly healthy hair and obsess over it all the time. these obsessive patterns of behaviour can really ruin your life. there is no world where spending hours upon hours in a bathroom having a series of breakdowns while pulling your hair is normal. you really need to see a psychiatrist and get medicated or see a therapist and put in the hard work. hope it works out for you, and that you'll feel better after going to sleep.
>>41696784does the matted parts have slightly sticky bits like soap scum stuck in it? that shit will not come out unless youre using conditioner or similar.
