Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[newnyer]

Mixed up a batch of henna & letting it sit overnight for the dye release. It's my first time & I'm so anxious/excited I keep peeking at the bowl like I'm baking a cake or something. Lol.

(Sure doesn't smell like cake though.)

Nothing like a fresh relaxer to have you fall in love with your hair all over again

 

[LadyRaider]

I'm really considering a non-LHCF blog. But then again, I rarely visit other forums so truthfully speaking, my LHCF blog is all that I need.

divachyk - my LHCF blog and see some of the tools that I use to bun.

I am mad because my hair is too short for your pretty buns. What did you do at shoulder length to protective style?

do any naturals experience the "new growth effect", when they do a blowout? My roots revert to the point where my hair behaves like it needs a touchup (thick roots, lifeless ends). Grrrrrrrrrrrrr, washed that ish out!

Henna Sooq's indigo rinses really well

My hair seems like its at a stand still. Soon as I start getting close to my goals its wants to be slower than christmas getting these last few inches.

I need to get on point with my vitamins, diet, water, exercise, and scalp treatments. As a matter of fact, bout to pop some vits right now.

I'm at 8.5 inches right now. I need 10 to make APL. My end of year goal was full APL at 11 inches. But I would be ok with 10-10.5. Just as long as I make APL.

Just ordered a new steamer. I forgot how much I LOVE using it since the one I bought last year fell a few times and broke. I'm SO excited! PLUS that means a package in the mail. SCORE!!

this is why i dont do blow outs! my hair doesnt work well in that inbetween state. it either has to be fully natural or straighted with a flat iron to be wearable.

Going to meet a cousin today...I'm so excited

My ORS Edge Control did not give me orgasmic results. My hair is a tad bit dirty though.

 

[SuchaLady]

She's natural and she lays her hair down beautifully.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT_u7XmWC7E&feature=fvwrel Why can't I? I dont understand. Thats how I want my pony to look.

 

[LifeafterLHCF]

SuchaLady shame on you for posting links to videos...now that will be my hair do for the week a high bun..

 

[SuchaLady]

GoddessMaker Sorry! Lol that will probably be my style as well for next week. And maybe the next.

 

[LifeafterLHCF]

SuchaLady will be mine or some bun style for the rest of the summer I'm in Texas I'm tired of having hot head after work..its like when I wear half wigs I'm wanting to take it off in the car while driving..not cute when you need to run in the store.

It is taking me soooo long to finish twisting my hair. I can't wait to be done.

 

[melissa-bee]

I hennaed for the first time today and I had loads of breakage. Never again. The breakage reminded me of my transitioning days.

That's called eco styler magic, also she looks like she may have fine texture natural hair but it works on thick hair like mine that gel gives ++10 hold, but you have to moisturize alot with conditioner, oils under it or else you get dryness and breakage. I'm trying to wean my hair off eco styler, Its good gel but all gels have a drying effect and they leave residue.

It is. I never paid attention to her hair in this movie until now. I think that ever since I've been on this hair journey, I automatically zoom in on hair now lol.

 

[ScorpioBeauty09]

I really hate that this setback happened. After measuring I've determined I lost 3.5 inches!!!! Even if I retain all that I grow (odds are that won't happen) it will take me another year to make BSL when I was projected to reach it by the end of this year!!! Ugh, the whole thing makes me sick!!!

Hey @LadyRaider - I didn't PS back then. Wore my hair out every day of the week, 365 days a year. My hair grew without a personal regi and/or hair care practice of my own. Back then, I was salon dependent and went faithfully every 2 weeks without fail. Got my TU every 6 weeks and trimmed every 12 weeks. I didn't learn of proper hair care until joining LHCF a year ago. I was roughly BSB when I joined.
