Have you tried the high bun. I do a super high banana clip bun. It is really cute and I dont have to take it down at night because it is at the top of my head. There is hardly any tension because of the banana clip and I only rinse my hair 2X a week. This is not because I need to but because I workout alot and dont want the sweat just chillin up there:)



I had to ask my husband to block the website overnight so I could pull an all night study session. I aced my test but it is a shame this website is so addicting I had to ask for an intervention hahahaha
 
I am seriously considering getting a relaxer when I reach my goal length. I'm over the hair/work-out dance I have to do to look decent.

*sigh* while deep conditioning lol
 
I think I am going to take out this protective early. It is hot as a mutha up in here. At least with my bun they are wet so the hot arz air feels bearable until they dry then I CoWash again.
 
If I lived near a Dominican salon I would be set. I would get a weekly roller wrap without blowing out the roots and call it a day. I do not enjoy doing my hair and nothing is wrong with that at all.
 
winona I have and it was one of my longer lasting ones actually. I just feel like I get more breakage with a higher bun. Im sure its psychological though :lol:
 
coconut oil mixed with elucence MBC + kinky curly curling custard = :lick: soft, shiny hair

I am determined to get a decent rollerwrap/silk wrap. My hair thrives when my cuticle is flat and smooth. Off to Youtube

So, I finally got bored enough and watched the documentary Good Hair by Chris Rock. Meh.:look: Ready to watch something positive and uplifting now. Oh wait, *** that - True Blood is coming on tonight!!
 
I did prepoos with Aloe vera juice this week but I think I am going to ditch this and do honey prepoos instead. It feels moisturized when I rinse my hair but later when it feels really dried out. Oh well!!!!!!!
 
why do these companies' banner ads for Jessicurl and Twisted Sista, etc have racially ambiguous/white women with loosely curled hair? What gives? :ohwell:

I usually warm about 2 tbsp of honey in a bowl first. I divide my hair into four parts and dampen it with a little water. I add the honey to my hair focusing on my ends and cover it with a shower cap for about 30 minutes. It seems to soften and moisturize my ends for days.

I warm up the honey to keep it from lighten my hair. You can add olive oil as well.

Here is a youtube video from Marcherie which is where I got the idea about honey prepoo.

Lissa0821 - Thanks for the video link. I can't imagine trying to get 2 TBSP of honey in my hair :lol:
 
Random thought ....

I wish someone would come over and blow dry/flat iron my hair for me! I am getting tired just thinking about it.
 
My hubby and I are on a healthy lifestyle journey together

Y did this fool just say he gets a bigger icee because he is older lmbo he is only 5.5 months older than me hahahahaha
 
Pretty Dimples' videos always make me want to go natural. I aint even about to play myself for the fool :lachen: She is a professional hair stylist.
 
I bought a new satin bonnet because my old one is ready to rest in peace. OMG this one is sooo tight. There is no way I can sleep in it. Have to figure out a way to break it in but not on my head.
 
She couldnt care less about the back she just wants a bang.

I dont know if its acceptable for afro textured hair or not because I've never seen it. I do know that hispanic girls do it all the time and no one says boo about it.

I just dont think it will look nice

divachyk She has wanted one for a few months now. She is not thinking about the entire head just the bangs. Most little girls around her age want one. I remember being 8 and I took my natural hair and did a paper bag roller to get one. It looked ridiculous and puffy ha ha

Myjourney2009, I don't think it looks good or bad, just odd. I wouldn't do it on my head. Girls that I went to highschool with did both; taking natural hair without straightening and using it as a bang by curling it some way and making it puffy, or having the back kinky or curly while having the bangs straight. Like I said, just odd. :lol: I don't even fancy it on braidouts much. It's youthful though so I don't think much of it if I see it. It can look "good", I just wouldn't do it.

Speaking of bangs, the only real pet peeve I have concerning them are when they're STIFF. I get that sometimes it's a mistake but people who continue to rock the stiff bang that has no movement in a hurricane kills me.

^ No one hate on me, I'm very vocal.

Oh and when people relax the bang but keep the back natural: :lachen: :lachen: :lachen:

^ Not a pet peeve but it always has me falling OUT.

@Aireen - I had bangs but no true recollection of their neediness. Oh well.

Okay, divachyk. :lol: I retract my statement about my bangs solely just being bothersome, maybe vanity played a part too? :lol:
 
:perplexed I have four flat irons now and rarely flat iron. :nono:

Fhi Platform
Chi Farouk
Maxiglide
Conair Steam Straightener

Dang! I have a flat iron and curling iron and don't intend to use them so I feel guilty too. Why don't you lend them out or offer to do someone's hair every once in a while?
