I showed my coworkers my twists. 1 loved them b/c she does them for her daughter (african american); 1 said they were so soft and springy (caucasian); and 1 said they looked like turds (also caucasian) :perplexed:

Yeah...won't be wearing my twists to work until they're longer.

What. The. Hell? Some people don't know when to talk. Why would that be acceptable? Do you-- one monkey don't stop no show.

Girl if you love your twists then rock your twists. If you wait until you think its a style no one will comment on you will rarely wear your hair out. There is always someone that has something to say. And the sooner you get them use to you doing you the sooner they will back off.

I've been at my job for 2.5 years and been wearing my hair in whatever style for 2+ years and some of them still act simple and try to say something to me. They get the side eye and if they keep talking they get a whole lot of faith. Ok I'm done venting :lol:
 
I have a ceramic flat iron that goes from temp 1-20 and 20 is 400°. Today I used it on like 2 which made my hair more manageable without much heat. Do ya'll think that would be ok on my hair once a week? I am 11 weeks post.

In my building, the whyte folks aren't used to seeing natural hair. There's 1 other lady in the building that is natural and she wears wigs as much as I do. The last few times I wore it out, of course they had to touch it, asked how did I make it "do that" and of course told me I need to do something with my hair. Its frustrating as all hell to feel like if you wear your real hair around there, they act like you've turned into a purple hippo and look at you like you're insane. Just wait for 2012 close minded little people...you're in for a rude awakening.

NikkiQ,

Sounds like one of your co-workers has a serious anal fixation ... :lachen::lachen:

You wear your twists, baby gurl ... and if y'all do secret santa, make sure that ***** gets a roll of dat ruff *** recycled brown toilet paper with a note that says "the gift that keeps on giving"
 
So I have dived into the higher or pricer items for my head but I don't know if I should.I will see how this Ms Jessies stuff will manage but I want to try the Alma Olive Oil Butter to see if its all the hype of keeping moisture in bc moisturizing and sealing 2 times a day isn't the business for me..
 
Doing a quick deep conditioning treatment with Redken All Soft Heavy Cream in hopes that my hair will become normal again after being dried to a crisp thanks to Giovanni Direct Leave-In.

ETA: My hair feels so much better now. Washed out the Heavy Cream and applied a little of the Redken Heat Glide thermal protectant before lightly blow drying my hair. It feels much softer and moisturized now. I'm either going to throw that Giovanni leave-in in the trash or give it to a friend.

I think my hair care obsession is back... considering making youtube videos again. It has been a while!

Can't wait for my steamer to be delivered!
 
NikkiQ Girl you better rock your hair. This is one if the first times you wear it out and a couple comments make you want to hide it again? PLEASE. They would be so sick of me flaunting my hair they wouldn't have ish else to say. Be confident, your hair is beautiful. If you put your hair away, they win. Think of it that way lol :look:
 
i bought some bigger rollers today, as well as the Aphogee Keratin Green Tea spray and Keracare Essential Oil. i used to love that oil back in the day. i put some on my ends today to help seal the moisture in when i set my hair.

:nono: People have gotten so bold about the things that they say lately. You are so pretty and I can't imagine any way you wear your hair looks like turds.

Sometimes people make comments about my hair that are not cool at all. I just shake those haters off and keep wearing it because I think it's beautiful. Own your beauty hun! Rock your hair when you are ready but please don't let ignorant people keep you from enjoying your coils.

I absolutely agree. People will make comments to you until that have you all boxed in. I think you should wear it like that two more weeks just to let them know you are about you and your happiness and not theirs.

Yeah I'm venting again. :lol: Woosah :lol:

I didn't see this post. I like this attitude better. Hopefully 2012 will help you get passed their foolishness. When people want to be comfortable they want to make you feel uncomfortable so that you can change. But I am of the mindset that I want to be comfortable so I think they should change.
 
this butchered hair cut is looking awful.
i have to start wearing wigs until my hair appointment which is...the end of the month. i should have the money by then..working part time. you know how it is.

R U KIDDING ME. TURD!

I'd go what cream do you use under your eyes " it is swollen and you have creases in it" don't use that cream anymore (women get pissed)
 
Hey All :wave: nothing really to add. Just dropping by as I haven't visited much as of late. Hoping everyone is doing great!
 
Just found a video on YouTube. I BC'd on 6/22/09 I forgot and now I know! I could have sworn I've been natural for four years. Now I don't feel so bad about my growth.
On another note I wish I could blink these braids out of my head they are too much.

excuse my typos i hate it as much as you.
