Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

With all the recent emphasis on "thanks" I finally looked at how many times I was thanked. I truly had no idea what threads those thanks resulted from. After playing around with my stats, I finally figured out how to determine what threads I was thanked in. That's too much work for me. I'll save my energy for something else.
 
I'm a shell of my former self..I haven't flat ironed in a long while and decided I would last night for a length/health check...I did the back half, then stopped:ohwell: I was just NOT in the mood!

Does look like I've gained an inch though:yay:
 
<In my babyface voice>.."Do you know what today is? Its my nappyversary!!! Well really its 3 yrs since my last relaxer ..anyway yay me!!:cup:
 
I use the thank command for several reasons. Sometimes it is just a thank you for the post, sometimes it is "I agree." Sometimes it is "I acknowledge you/I read this." Sometimes I used it to say "I like what you posted."
 
So I add about a capful of the protein filler to some of Elasta QP intensive moisturizing conditioner and left it on for about 10 minutes. I loved the results, the protein filler seems to give my hair more texture and a little more thickness. I also noticed I had much less shedding today when I combed out my hair. I will try it again in two weeks, if the results are just as good it will become a part of my regimen.
 
Hair's a little frizzy today, but I'm rockin' it. I'm the professor. Whose gonna tell me anything?


ETA: Someone needs to tell the professor how and when to use "who's."
 
On day 2 of wng with grease. Went to bed with 5 pinned down, super loose and chunky twist (i think I twisted 1 or 2 times max). Slept in satin bonnet. This morning I refreshed w/ water in a spray bottle, a little conditioner and a little grease.

I wonder if I can get 3 days out of it. I worry about tangles and knots. But I've been good at keeping my hair out of my hands and I since I'm wrapping at night, I might be able to. But I guess I'll have to wait until after my workout to night. Not sure how the sweat will affect it. Hmmm...
 
i finished my micros in 2 days! i was marathon braiding. i dont know when ill have that much time to spend on my hair again. that being said i will be keeping these in for a good while! they hang to about and inch from apl. they are flat twisted here so i can wear it wavy today.

I love it. Looks great. You are definitely a marathon braider. I have not attempted the braid because I'm afraid I won't be able to get them out and then get impatient and start cutting. :lol:

Aireen & Kurlee well.ca has it, AO honeysuckle. Free shipping in CA too:yep:

I like both options. I'll probably get it soon when I have a pass since I'm in the no-buy challenge.
 
I am convinced that it takes longer time for people with bigger heads to reach their hair goals than it does people with smaller heads.

I am surprise we never talk about that on the forum.
 
I've made some progress, but every time I get my hair flat iron my hair dresser always likes clip my ends she says she doesn't want me to have any fly aways (whatever that means).

Met a nice new stylist at the base salon. She's natural and she was very nice, about my age. She did a great job doing a DC and trim for me that I decided to go back. She did some very cute flat twist braids back into a cute lil bun and well she told me that the next day would be her last day. :( needless to say I am hurt because I was willing to put money aside to let her do my hair regularly and I don't pay to do anything regular except eat. Lord why!!?? Well she was moving away to support her family and I can dig that. Hopefully the heavens hear my plea for a stylist who I share many common things like age and hair choices. It really puts the cherry on getting my hair done.
