I am feeling sooooo lazy! I want to do a rod set but but my body ain't feeling it, I wonder how a braidout would look on short hair?? Anybody tried it?
 
Y'all are silly! :lol: HanaKuroi and Embyra

Let me see if I can find images on this. I shall be back MyAngelEyez~C~U. I have never thought about what you just said w/r/t weight making a difference so I may need to think about this some and see if I can find any images for Embyra to support my conclusion.

How long has it been though MyAngelEyez? I don't measure progress by that of the freaks of nature who go from SL to APL in a few months, so perhaps you're just being impatient coz you're comparing yourself with others. Heck I don't think I was at APL until over a year after being at SL. Maybe 2 even. And I don't consider that to have been a long time. I honestly don't. Maybe it's coz I'm not in a race or always checking to see if the pot boiled. As I've shared before, I only discovered I was at APL when taking a photo to show my shrinkage and then was thrilled to bits. This was in March 2010. The last time I'd done a length check also not really planned but was taking a photo to show what natural hair looks like w/o product when stretched (that it reflects light better when straight) was in June 2008. In April 2009, some people thought I was at APL, which would mean that w/ low mani (never wearing my hair out) it took me over a year to get there. But because I prefer when more than a few hairs reach APL, I waited a little longer to call it. And that would mean until 2010. So that would mean two years. *shrug*
 
In spite of steaming my hair yesterday with One N Only Argan oil restorative mask, my hair feels dry today. I think I figured out what is happening, I recently changed my relaxer from lye to no lye so I think I need heavier moisturizing deep conditioners and I need to use ORS creamy aloe shampoo my hair more often. I will try this for a next few weeks, I like the fullness I am getting with the no lye relaxer so I really want to figure out how to get consistently moisturized.

:yep::look:, you're probably right Nonie. I just feel like it's creeping along. I am 2years post relaxer, but when I BC'd in June of '10, I overcut down to 1-3 inches. So I guess I'll just be patient, and stop worrying about my fat-back and it's effect on my length :look:. I still wanna see your analysis, though, LOL.
 
Nice! I like it. AND I went to Rite Aid today. Didn't get the same one in your pic, but I did pick up more hair jewelry.

Raspberry[/USER];14475879]@makemild @divachyk Yall don't know how hard it was for me to get a shot of the back of my head, I'm a hair pic amateur lol.

I started to twist my hair around like I was going to make a bun, coiled it up then tucked the ends under the main coil of hair. No real rules to this, whatever looks/feels right for the length of your hair. I then stuck the prongs of the clip into the side of the coil in way that felt secure and comfortable. Pretty easy for me considering I'm usually bad at updos. Veteran bunners or those who use hair sticks can probably make up tons of cute styles with this thing.

I know right? Then she has the nerve to make me show her my measly updo :lol:

@Embyra!!!! @HanaKuroi!!!! I know you didn't want to miss this!!! :lachen::lachen:

@MyAngelEyez~C~U, I don't thick being fat can change the crease of your armpit in a way you'd notice. Doesn't look like it did for this person and she's way bigger than you:

...and it didn't for this person:

In fact, loose skin and flab might just make the armpit fold appear higher like this dude's appears in the front:

Well, I don't think I'm that far from it. I put pics up in my 2011 album. I'll definitely be there by my 2year-post BC mark. But thanks for making me feel like an utter goofball :look:. I did ask for for it, didn't I?

MyAngelEyez~C~U You did ask for it :giggle: and if you're reaching there in 2 years, you're doing better than a lot of us. Trust me, just quit checking. The surprise is way better than seeing yourself get there. And you may just wake up one day and you passed it w/o even knowing.

Good night nurse :lol: :lol: Nonie you are killing me softly today :lachen:
 
Well, dayum. I guess that makes me a freak of nature. Cool! As long as I continue to freakishly get what I expect, I'mma continue to get my freak on...and on...and on. :grin:

That said, let me go wash this indigo out of my hair. My DC will have to be an overnighter. With all that "freak" talk, I'mma have to holla at my hubby. :grinwink:

@NJoy, yes you are a freak! Scary, miracle-gro head freak! *hating on freaks* LOL @ hollering at hubby. I see you, a-matrix chick. ;)
 
I suffer from serious hairnorexia... I went to the salon yesterday to get a sew in. They kept telling me that I have so much hair:rolleyes:. The girl who braided my hair for the sew-in did not know in what pattern to braid my hair,so an older lady came and showed her how to braid my hair. She kept telling the young one "you have to braid like this because she has a lot of hair" the whole time I was looking at my hair in the mirror and was feeling like I was bald. smh. I am going on a hardcore 6 months(at least) protective style/hyde my hair/hair bootcamp challenge. Maybe I will feel better about my length after it...:ohwell::perplexed
 
Does anyone just use conditioner in their hair as a 'leave in'? Straight from the bottle?? I have 'hello hydration' which smells DIVINE, and I was wondering if I cud just take a thimble-full, put it in my hair and not have any bad results.
 
My final week with my La Doral wig. I'm definitely ready to switch things up! I'll most likely wear Samara Girl for November....

Yep :yep: It weighs your hair down a little so don't apply too much. I did this for about a year.
