unusual habits were guilty of

[Boujoichic]

I moisturize at work as well my nape can get to feeling really dry and crunchy I find that if it does I will play in it twirling it around my fingers and pulling on it. It's a really bad habit because the hairs will start to break to avoid this I have a little bottle of olive oil cream moisturizer in my purse I will slater it on my nape it kind of helps keep my hands out of it. Im sure people think I have issues when they see me doing this because I will do it right in my open cubicle. I will also put twist or braids in my nape as well to keep it protected and Ive found that this area is prone to single strand knots this I hope is helping to prevent them. I think all my habits are helping though because my nape hair is cbl which is longer then it has ever been.

I am CONSTANTLY checkin out my fro. No matter if I'm walking past cars or about to burst my bladder and running to the bathroom, I will check my hair first, then go do the duty LOL.

Yes, well it is to my family and friends.

During my weekly wash I collect all shed and or broken hairs from the shower floor / comb etc. I examine a few of them (looking for the bulb, testing elasticity and such), after which I roll them up into a ball and place them in a box. I keep the hair balls until I get a touch up after which I start collecting all over again!

My reasoning for doing this: (of course it's completely logical and sane to me)

1. I'm able to have a visual of how much hair I have lost from week to week.

a) Which lets me know which products renders the best results in preventing shed hair and breakage
b) If the hair balls get bigger, I either need to address causes of shedding or breakage
c) Helps me to better determine when I need to end a stretch

2. It's become a habit! erplexed

I have several pairs of manicure scissors. One in my purse, one in the car, one in the bathroom, one in the bedroom, and one on my desk....just in case I see a split end or an SSK so I can snip it.

 

[charmtreese]

I constantly develop Mini Regimens in my mind........while watching TV or doing other things (like working).....

I'll grab a pen and paper and scribble out a quick regi I've decided to try.

I can look on my desk at work and find a couple regi's or in my purse.

At any given time, I'll spot a regi written out on the back of something....

I use to do this ALL the time!!! Now I have a file on my pc where I keep up with each weekly wash regimen/products/styles.

I collect shed/broken hairs too, but Charmtreese has it down to a science.

 

[SimJam]

See these habits are only unusual to "outsiders"

I do several things other ladies do:

I have a pill box with all my supplements in my "drawer" at work.

also have a lil spritz bottle with glycerine/water mix.

I take most of my hair pics at my desk (whats kinda funny is that one of my co-workers is a bit afraid of lightening and she's always freaked out by my flash LOLOLOLOLOL)

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

yeah... i stick my fingers in my hair and smell them to see if my hair still smells like conditioner. LOL! ♥

 

[davisbr88]

Whenever I wash/co-wash my hair, I always get out of the shower just to stare at and caress my new growth in the mirror. I usually do this about 3 or 4 times per shower... lol.

 

[sensi sweetie]

OKAY, I admit it!
I secretly enjoy staring at the back of my head with a 2nd mirror in the bathroom.

Then I'll moisturize/add oil to till it looks as blingen and shiney as possible.
I disappear in there so often my family must think i have issues. LOL! but with good hurr

 

[4bforreal!!!]

I moisturize my hair at work and in the car. I keep a small bottle of Frank Juice and every now and then I'll spritz in front of my computer but I always check if someone is coming around the corner. I'm a sneaky spritzer.

That is too funny.... With yo sneaky self

 

[LovelyNaps26]

i search my hair for single strand knots and rub my fingers along the strand that has one. once in a while i will actually just pull it out, breaking the strand. yeah, i know this is horrible.

 

[SweetSpirit86]

^^^^Hence why I keep pairs of scissors everywhere...I was doing the same thing and saw the amount of split ends I had shoot through the roof.

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

davisbr88, girl, you betta step ya game up and get you a handheld mirror that you can bring IN the shower with you.

[davisbr88]
