Ummm, why did I let that Shea Moisture Hold and Shine Mist sit in the product's gone wrong pile for months like that? Shame on me. I revisted it this week and I'm in some serious lust with it. It gives me great moisture for finger combing and retwisting my hair at night.

When I take my twists out the hold is nice. There is frizz but the only way I don't have frizz is with products that make my hair crunchy. I prefer frizz over crunch and having to fight the crunch any day.

The shine is fantastic.

On a side note I'm so happy to see other naturals rocking their curls at work. They look fantastic! So proud! Corporate America does welcome natural hair. It's professional, sexy, and versatile. It's a good look. I also have a friend with the most lovely relaxed hair. I mean it's DOPE! She always wears it down and it still grows long and thick. Lemmie find out she's on LHCF. lol.

Feeling a bit natural hair discourage lately. I just don't know what I'm doing and I'm losing confidence in myself. I don't want to do anything drastic, but I really need to think things over.

I feel you! I had gotten to a point a few months back where I wanted to wear my hair in its natural state but I wanted it to look GOOD and I didn't really know how to do that. After spending years as a natural that got flat ironed every other week I went under a wig for six months and gained 3 inches. So I know leaving it be is best for retention. I know it seems like a lot of work taking care of your natural hair but when you reach your goal it will be worth all the work.

Don't get discouraged! keep doing what has proven to work for you and you will get over this hump. I did. HTH
(and resist the urge to perm:nono:, stick to your goals:yep: )
 
^^No perms for me. I just need to really work on a good reggie, staples and to get over my style challenged ways.
 
...y'all are really on something this month.

Did the planets align? Everybody's period came in at once? Ish got boring in real life so some online drama was needed? Whoo.
 
waiting for my lf to arrive @ work..lolol..going to the hurricane club tonight and need a emergency hair fix....my coif just aint acting right today...smdh

on the serious look out for ups...
 
Too bad there isn't such a thing as a thread by invitation only. Sometimes you need a group talk within an controlled environment.
 
Oh snap I can finally put my bangs in my mouth! Oh Yeah! I'm so excited. Just when my self esteem was on E my growth is on POINT! Like Kanye said "You can't tell me nuthin". lol.
 
I think the world needs a big ole hug right now. Not really hair related but even our hair can make us feel some kinda bad way about ourselves I guess.
 
I'm really tired of seeing my hair wet. The difference is night and day. Dry and straight, there's not as much a difference but, I'm not good at straightening my hair. I think I'm going to go ahead and start cutting. It's inevitable so, what am I waiting for? I don't want it wet all the time anymore and when it dries, it shrinks like crazy so...blah. I'm so over my hair right now. *sigh* Time to braid it back up.
 
As much as i cannot STAND kimmaytube condescending manner/early learning center kids talk:look:............i just watched her series on ph balance and LOVED IT guess i wont be doing cherrylola treatment :ohwell:

I want jet black hair.


This hair rinse thing is totally foreign to me though :perplexed

Its so easy! It lasts longer if you sit under the dryer with it on. I DC before I apply a rinse, and seal after the rinse. Its just not something I do often since I'm natural, and tend to wet my hair a lot, the rinse comes out.

So...you DC, apply the rinse, sit under the dryer...

how long do you sit under the dryer? Do you just wash your hair like normal afterwards?

Forgive me if I'm asking too many questions. I'm just trying to get all this straight :)

I know you didn't ask me but I'm gonna answer :grin:. I use Wella Demi rinse. It's one of the best rinses IMO. I always clarify first then I do my color and let it sit. After I rinse it out I dc. I did my last jet black rinse a few days after I bc'd in early July and it's finally looking like the color is wearing off (I'm a weekly clarifier and I don't use color safe shampoos/conditioners).

PlatinumBronze I'm glad you did answer! You answered some question I hadn't even asked yet (but was gonna!) :)
 
im so slowwww. i thought this razac leave in was whacksauce because it was just water. i then decided to read a review online about it. it turns out that it settles in the bottom. so low and behold i shake it quite a bit and it is a totaly different consistency. i put it on my hair and it is so shiny and silky! and it dried like that! OMG OMG im mad i bought all of these Expensive leave ins that do nothing for my hair but make it ashy.
 
I'm having a serious case of hand in head disorder. This is the first time in a long time I have be able to play in my hair without a punch of pieces breaking off or having shed hair in my hand.

Umm...now I'm trying to figure out what thread ya'll are talking about
