Advice on edge control

BettyMahoney — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 17:45:52 GMT

if this has been answered please point me toward the thread, but i’m looking for an edge control that can hold my edges (at least for 1 or 2 hours) without drying them out.

i already have pretty thin edges so i’m worries about the impact of my edge control

I too had NO idea what the OP was/is talking about here and was glad to see the other posts. Was thinking I was just stupid! LOL

See, this why I love this place. So much wit. It takes the edge off (sorry, couldn't resist).

This might not be much help but if you Google "edge control" New York Mag has a fairly decent article on products they recommend. The article is dated April 2020 so it's recent.

"What are edges in Black hair?

Edges, a term born in the Black community, are the baby-hairs that grow on the perimeter of one's forehead. Slayed edges are like a soft-kiss from God, and styling them is truly an art form."

@BettyMahoney I have no idea what edge control is so why don't you explain it?

Thanks for googling it instead of acting like she was from another planet. I wouldn't blame her if she didn't want to come back here.

@BettyMahoney

Two of my favorite youtube channels happycurlhappygirl and BiancaReneeToday have great recommendations for edge products.

Bianca is very into only healthy products . Rayna is just an edge girl both channels entertaining and informative.

I thought she meant lipstick. As for my hair, my eyes aren't good enough to even see the edges.

Jennifer Lopez is notorious for wanting laid edges. She has straight hair.

Exactly my thought. It's rather rude to laugh at someone because they mention something you don't know about.
