Day 3 of my twist out is going well and I LOVE it!!! I've gotten a few looks at work already, but who gives a flyin you-know-what. It's starting to get a bit fuzzy though so I may end up rockin a twist out puff or bun for the rest of the week.
 
I have decided to only trim my ends and not cut to even out breakage. I am going to let it grow out. I was so frustrated the other night I just wanted to get it chopped off. Evening out my hair to the shortest piece of breakage is silly. I would be cutting of major inches. Yall wont see any pics of my hair anytime soon. Lol yeah it's BSL but with crappy ends. :nono:
 
Augh...learning from this thread that air dried hair doesn't show true length like flat ironed hair. I don't like flat ironing my hair. :(

First 10 months of non protective styles with no progress ....

Last 8 months of PS'ing at 100% with amazing retention....

I just wasted 10 months of my hair journey.... :(

So I've had this old jar of Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade that I almost never used because it was so grainy. Last night I liquified and re-solidified the whole thing, so now it's nice and creamy, and I must say it is the BOMB.COM in terms of laying down my edges :grin:! I am loving this for my buns :yep:.

@Ronnieaj don't ask me where I read this as I have no idea :lol: but a cool thing I discovered is that apparently when you melt your butters AND solidify them quickly in the freezer, the graininess disappears. The quick solidification seems to be the trick.

I finally used a SF poo. Yeah, I'm late. I realize I can't prepoo with my oils before using it but my hair felt awesome. The only downside was the shedding and breakage. I had my hair in braids last week and didn't M&S like I was supposed to do
 
I'm glad I straightend my hair. But I'm even happier it's reverting. It keeps getting bigger and bigger.

I liked my combo of oils and butter I used, made my hair feel silky and not oily. (CO + Shea Butter + Oil blend) sounds like a lot but it worked.

I probably can't get away with this big puff ball tomorrow, what to do, what to do....

I should start a BC pact for Black Friday (new moon). Anyone interested :look:
 
Ms. Tiki i tried my 1st SF shampoo and didn't like it. What brand did you try? I tried the coconut milk one by Organix and it was hard, I like creamy poos with thick lather and it was just hard. Is this normal for SF poos?
 
A week and two days have passed and I'm still rocking the same rollerset. I can't believe I've made it this far. My usual itchiness did begin around day 4 and day 5 was a beast, but I was determined to make it at least a week. I preferred to make it to two weeks, but I just don't know if I have it in me, which is such a shame b/c my hair still looks good. I'm just not beginning to see a little frizz my roots.

I think I will be making my way to Sallys for some rollers with the snaps to see if I can't duplicate the salon quality results at home. B/c I certainly cannot do it with those darn duck bill clips, sans snaps. :nono:
 
OK, so I just rollerset my hair and I'm under the dryer. The rolling process seemed to go better since I have the magnetic rollers with the snaps. However, I'm not confident I'll be able to get away with solely rollersetting my hair. I still may need to hit it with the flatiron. Well, at least I'll be skipping the blowdryer step that the salons do. Praying my hair turns out decent.

I'm cutting my hair. There's no way around it. It's getting longer but my ends look atrocious and I have no clue why. Funny thing is when I was flat ironing weekly my ends were never thin like this. Now that I went on this airdry spree look what happens. :rolleyes: There is no sense in holding on to stringy ends. I may get a sew in instead if I can afford it to see if my hair looks any better after about 6 months. I am just so annoyed.

Airdrying gives me puffy tangly ends. I was trying to do that but then I said *** that and started sitting under a hooded dryer for about 20-30 minutes and then flat ironing, been smooth sailing ever since!
 
I'm really considering going into 2012 sans bonelaxed ends. My thickness is delicious. It's not like I'm used to wearing this hair out anyway. :ohwell:
 
Im at this stupid awkward phase of growth.. 8 months post and not quite a twa but def not anything else. I adore my hair but dagnabit I need some length. I even feel like my hair is short for 8 months post, but maybe I'm trippin.
 
Just gave myself a relaxer touch up after 11 weeks post. I used Mizani butter blend no lye relaxer, I really liked it.
 
I will not cut my hair, I will not...but this chick made feel like I need to...
