Just today I went and got my hair cut really short. It had gotten to a point where nothing else was working. Even after a year and a half, the relaxer was still "hanging on" the top of my new growth. This is okay for now. However, once it grows out I need someone to work with me. I am not talented when it comes to styling hair. What types of products should I be investing in. I really need some help.

: I really am at a loss. All I am sure of is
