I have only been here in Hong Kong since Friday and I ran across your message (this message) while still in the USA. I am intereseted in finding out if you have had any luck since your arrival here in Hong Kong with a hair stylist who has experience in working with African American hair or if you've just been doing your own hair? Any information/advice would be extremely helpful at this point. I decided not to go with braids, so I got a relaxer before arriving here in Hong Kong with my hair stylist. Now I'm wondering if that was a good idea or not being that I don't generally do my own hair.
