How I did it: Basically, I wouldn't (and still dont) let anything get the best of me.  i'm a person who stresses out big time, and this is what was a major factor in my reason of pulling.  I just go day by day, and try not to let anything phase me too much!!

Lessons & tips: I constantly remind myself that if i pull my hair im physically damaging myself. 
i keep positive, and try and stay away from any negativity.  I also try to turn any negativity into positivity.  If the negativity is too strong, i try and get up and walk away!! 
Keep your hair/ scalp clean.  Wash your hair often.  Make sure that all conditioners and hair products are washed out thoroughly!!!
