Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Evolving78]

i finally bought some aloe vera juice. i sprayed it straight on my hair. it made my coils instantly pop, finger detangle/retwist with ease. it was like spraying water on my hair, but better, like my Oyin Juices and Berries. i will see how moisturized my hair will be in the morning.

A very rare twist out success day. Was getting compliments and looks and loved it. Hoping it comes out ok for the weekend so I can hold off relaxing.

I think I'm going to mix my African pride braid spray with some oils and spray my scalp. My weave is acting way better know that it's washed.

Stopped at Marshalls. Big sale on all the Joico products! Also picked up Natures Gate Herbal Conditioner at an excellent price as well. Very happy at this moment. Will be making flax seed gel and whipped shea butter this weekend. May mix some of the two for a natural curly pudding. 2 BBQs this weekend. Fireworks tomorrow and Saturday. This should be a fun weekend and hopefully my hair is cute...and moisturized.

I play that song almost everyday!!! Love his voice on that one!

Feeling like an "around the way girl" with my cornrows on, lol. I'll be rocking them this summer (of course with proper maintenance and using my summer regimen) with the occasional wig-wearing.

I don't want to do anything more than simple this summer.

I think I wanna ty mini twists again...hopefully they'll turn out alright...

 

[NJoy]

Getting so bored with the growing phase. I'm ready to fast forward to my goal length so that I can get to the maintaining phase.

I'm ready to start wearing my hair out more often too. It feels great but I can't til I reach goal length. *sigh*

My fantasy hair is HL or TBL that is cut into a nice layered V with the shortest layers at around BSL or MBL. This hair growth thing is addicting after seeing some progress or motivation.

Note, I said fantasy this isn't a goal... yet?

What?!?

Thought I was the only black girl who obsessed over him!

I'm in good company I see...

I was able to grab my hair and twist it last nite. It's growing. I don't like the look of twists on me, but I was just excited that I could do it.

I'm trying to figure out what to do w/ my hair at nite. I'm rocking a TWA so I co-wash and wash n go every morning. At nite I sleep on my satin pillowcase after running some moisturizer through my hair. But I'm wondering if I should detangle before I go to bed? I'm not getting tangles or anything, a few SSK's but nothing devastating. But I dunno if just going to bed with wash-n-go'd (lol) hair is smart. Iount know, I'll see.

I have this reddish brown color on the tips of my hair from when I was transitioning. Now I have all this new growth so I have two toned hair, which I don't like. I wanna put a rinse over it but I cowash every day so that would be pretty pointless. Might just have to deal with it and eventually cut it out (after I hit APL )

This older lady came up to me real secret-like and said, 'Now what kinda curl is that baby? I used to keep me a curl.' I was like 'Ma'am I don't have a jheri curl....' I was dying laughing inside, she was so cute.

Keep me away from the scissors...

I'm not practiced enough to wear a wig down the aisle
I'm not confident enough to rock a TWA down the aisle
Watching BCs on YouTube has me reaching though
No scissors... No scissors... No scissors.....

I've been on this board for almost a year, and today is the 1st time I've noticed the arrow next to the original poster's name when someone quotes them. Dang how did I miss that.

 

[LunadeMiel]

I want to cut my hair but I want hip length hair. I don't know what tod do

 

[Dee_33]

Yup, it's official...Shea Moisture's coconut and hibiscus leave-in is my new staple. Loved Darcy's but hated shipping costs.

 

[Evolving78]

i just remembered using BioStrand products. i used to love this stuff. when i first started using it, my hair was dry, brittle, and under processed, with a little heat damage. it had my hair looking so healthy within a month. i used the products for almost two years. i would be it from my stylists. i didn't know at the time i could have ordered it online. i loved this stuff and Keracare form wrapping lotion.

update on the Aloe- my hair didn't feel dry this morning after using it last night, but i know i can't just use this alone for moisture. but it works great as a detangler.

Does anyone else have this problem with doing search and destroys at work? Why do i have shears in my desk drawer? Lol i need to focus before someone sees me sitting here cutting my splitends..

Here, let me help you out with that no-brainer. Back a-WAY from the scissors, Hip Length Mama!

 

[winona]

^^^ blackberry815 I use to now I am a full time college student but it isnt any better. A classmate caught me before class She was like are you cutting your dead ends? and I was like "yyyeeeaahh" Then we got into a long conversation about how we are taking control over our hair without giving complete control to a stylist LMBO

 

[halee_J]

I want a hana elite flat iron....

Since I now love washing/co washing my hair I'm going to enjoy the pool way more this summer

 

[Nix08]

So I gave coconut oil another chance and he's redeeming himself I likey

 

[divachyk]

Home from a 3 week business trip. My hair and I will become reacquainted with each other.

 

[Nix08]

Welcome back divachyk

 

[divachyk]

Nix08, thank you. I've missed all of you. I'm so out of sync with all things LHCF that I feel like a newbie again.

 

[Dizz]

I've gotten so many compliments and struck up so many more random conversations now that I wear a WnG daily. I feel beautiful

 

[kandiekj100]

I have been loving the swing I've been having with my micro twists, but I think I'm ready to sport my big hair again. They have held up nicely thanks to Nonie, so the takedown process should not be too tedious. Think I'll take them down tonight so I can be fro'd out by the 4th.

Had an AMAZING trip to a natural hair salon in ~SAN ANTONIO TEXAS~ I'm thinking I'll do an in depth review of my experience in the Salon Review forum if my reversion comes out alright. I'm VERY excited.
