6. I'm sad to admit my hair is shorter than it was this morning and in my siggy (but I am going to leave it as is, just cause) since I got it trimmed today! :cry2:
 
Rather than editing my original entry, I'll add another posting:
- I'm heat phobic. When I do use heat, I keep inspecting my ends to ensure they are okay.
- I need a trim but too afraid to do it myself and too afraid to let a stylist do it.
- I want to self-relax but again, too chicken. I use to self-relax and overlap like a mug because I didn't know any better but oddly my hair flourished back then. Now that I know better and did that foolishness, it will likely be all over the floor.
 
I've been combing my dry hair daily for the past week. :look: Granted, I use a seamless comb so I haven't seen any breakage (I do it over the sink to spot fallen hairs) but it's still no bueno.
 
I was depressed from the death of a family member and frustrated with me not having a hair type so I took it out on my hair....and I got a relaxer

Not going to lie...i wanted to cry right after I touched it. My hair was half natural/half relaxed and I punked out. My hair doesn't even feel the same, I feel like I killed it. :(

Also, I'm lazy and don't moisturize my hair nearly enough. Im trying the halfwig thing to protect my ends and keep me out of my hair. **crosses fingers**
 
I'm natural and have only had my hair out of braids for a few weeks, but I love flatironing it weekly (I touch it up if it shrinks at the nape etc).

I feel guilty about it sometimes, but my hair has honestly never felt better and it reverts fully when I wash it - I'm deep conditioning every wash and moisturising regularly.

Even so, I fee like I'm playing with fire. :burning:
 
I have had back to back sets of crochet braids since February. I take them out on Friday night. Wash and condition and put them right back in on Sunday morning. I am addicted to how easy they have made my mornings.
 
I'm a curl picker...My hand magically finds its way to my head a plays with my coils. Really bad habit I'm trying to break.

Also, sometimes I don't sleep with a cap/bonnet/scarf on...
 
i don't drink nearly enough water. I only drink during meal times.
I don't take my vitamins
 
I've been using the new goody hair bands...that aren't covered in elastic. I'm pretty sure they're ripping out my hair but I'm lazy and they are the only bands that hold all of it without much effort :yep:
 
Okay here goes

** I have way too many raw materials (butter, oils, ect) because I thought I would have all this time to play

** I have a steamer that I do not use nearly enough for the $800+ that I spent on it

** I was supposed to be trying to perfect styles like twists but have been way to lazy so I have been doing wet buns every 2-3 days

** I have not been applying my sulfur mix ever since someone at work said that I smelt herbally?

** hummmm that is all for now

I feel so relieved :)
 
I've gone 2 weeks with out Co-washing.
Sometimes i'll forget and only take 1 or 2 out of 3 daily hair vitamins...
I can't stop touching my hair in public.
 
I rarely if ever wear a satin bonnet (I put a satin pillowcase on my pillow, but it usually ends up on the floor)

I only detangle my hair when the back (It's 4a) starts dreading

Hand in hair disease like nobody's business

I don't think I'm sealing right, so I don't
 
I have severe hair anorexia. Although I know my hair was MUCH shorter at this time last year, every time I see someone with hair touching their back I feel like I have no hair.
 
1. On the nights when I don't have school or work the next day, I don't tie my hair up.
2.And I use a fleece blanket as a pillow = extra dry hair.
3.I use rubber bands for my buns because I'm unemployed and don't have the money to buy the nice kind of hair bands. :nono:
 
Ohh boy. Here we go

*I'm totally gung ho with the idea of hitting the next milestone, but secretly I know it's gonna take much longer than everyone else does and it tends to make me a little down in the dumps

*I'm newly natural and have NO idea how to style my hair and usually get too frustrated to continue trying after failing once.

*I rather wear a wig than rock my natural at work for the fear of the ladies in my office trying to touch it without asking first.

*My mother hates my natural hair so much to the point where I considered becoming heat trained...and changed my mind.

*I'm addicted to LHCF and YT channels that feature natural styles but never try them myself.

I guess that's all for now

Your hair might surprise you now that you are natural and get to your milestones quicker. Look at my join date. As a relaxed head I could barely even make SL in all that time:nono: Much less anything past it.

I don't try natural styles either. Too much work and I don't think I'd like how they look on me. I wear wigs 100% of the time. I tell myself maybe next summer when my hair is longer I will try some styles.

I like to watch youtube styles as well but never try them on myself.
 
Umm, I washed my hair with dove soap this morning.:fishslap: Conditioned with HE, and left the house with damp hair.
 
I cut my twists on Friday and they're unraveling on their own...and I'm not doing a thing to stop it. Gonna leave it like that until they totally come loose all the way up to the braid. Looks kinda cute in a pony.
 
The only shamppo I use is Head & Shoulders, feels so good and tingly on my scalp.
I also shampoo the length of my hair, not just the scalp.
I do not deep condition.
If a product cost's more than $2 per ounce then it's not for me, and even that is expensive to me.
I love using mousse in my hair.
I like to brush my hair with a really stiff hard brush when doing a pony or something of the sort.

my hair touches my back when straightened (I'm APL) but my shrinkage makes it look like it is barely out of the TWA stage.

I am nearly as long but my hair shrinks up to EL basically. It looks crazy short in its shrunken state.

My curls are fairly tight, so when they are wet they touch my shoulders, then shrink up to my chin. I know it could be worse, but I wanna feel my hair on me so bad!!! When my hair is straight it's APL and I'm scared of it touching anything so I put it in a bun, lol.
 
I feel like such a horrible mother! :(

Last night while washing my daughter's hair she had a huge (pea size) huge to me knot at the end, I don't know how it happened it's never happened before in all her little 7 years, so I tried my best to untangle to no avail, so I had to cut it out. THEN!!!! on top of that I used curlformers on her for the first time and the hair wouldn't pull through the stupid mesh roller and then when it finally gave way it snatched a good 15 strands out of her head....I was like OMG!!!! she was like what happened mommy? I said oh nothing, I was dying inside. po baby :( I feel so bad about this.

Glad to get that off my chest though : /
 
My hair irritates me sometimes. I can never get a flat and smooth looking finish for a pony/bun and IM RELAXED. But I thank the Lord. There is some little girl out there that's sick and cant grow any hair at all.
 
I confess that I don't like detangling my hair when I do long stretches of ps. So, all my braids still haven't been redone yet.
 
I haven't had a trim in 7 months.

I used shampoo with sulfate and of have color treated hair.

My hair is uneven.
 
1. I'm obsessed with LHCF, but

2. I still don't know what I'm doing


:lachen: If this is not ME to a "T"!! I'm on this forum like everyday- reading all these inspirations and hair product recommendations...and off I go buying the next thing to save my hair!! I have never known so much about sulfates, oils, cones, proteins, moisturizers in all my life....yet I still don't know what the heck I'm doing with this head of mine. LOL! Oh well--it will come.
 
I'm going natural... again. I'm planning to be a heat trained natural. This is the 3rd time I'm transitioning. Been fully natural 2x before......done all the twists,twist-outs braid outs, wash n go braids shingling etc. etc. The styles are beautiful, but just not my thing. I prefer the sleek look. That's why I'm relaxed now. Not bashing anyone, this is just my personal preference. So, if I can not have to chemically process my hair and have sleek hair without reversion...then heat training for the win.
