I wonder if co washing is contributing to my itcy dry scalp... Should I stop co washing or use a sulfate free shampoo weekly? I dunno....

Need to start getting to lengths like BSL that I have never sen before. Gonna make it happen in 2012. Low manipulation all the way! Back to straightening less and might just invest in a phony pony...
 
I had to break down and get a perm ealier than planned. The newgrowth came in full force this time. Oh well.

I :heart: AO White Camellia Conditioner
I don't know why it took me so long to try it but I am so happy I finally did. I think I finally found my staple conditioner :love:
 
Just purchased my first lacefront wig today. I'm super excited yet a little nervous. I pray that when it arrives and I put it on I don't look like a chocolate cabbage patch.

I refuse to relax again but I will fake the look on occasion.
 
I wanted to slap my older cousin he is fresh out of jail and wanted to ask all my aunties & me about out weaves. He was trying to pull of my hat I had to cover my half wig man I had to run away from him all day.

One single day I wore a half wig to work. One single day. A student complimented me on it and I told her it was a wig.


So then later, I complimented her on her curls (she usually straightens) and she said, "Oh and you are getting so good at those pieces you wear."

What? No. This is my real hair!

Sigh... one day. ONE day.
 
UGH! I wish people would stop looking at average growth and running out to buy growth aids just because their "idol" is promoting it. Let your hair do its thang and take care of it!

Meemee6223 that is very likely. Nothing can tough my scalp except oils, natural conditioners and shampoos, or sulfate shampoos. Even the sulfate free shampoos that are not natural will cause my hair to itch. Every conditioner I've tried except Trader Joes has made my hair itch after co-washing and the TJ Nourish Spa is basically made of all oils. So try natural products for your scalp.

LaFemmeNaturelle I have been co-washing for a couple of weeks and my scalp has become progressively angry with me...
Where do u buy natural products? Online? Also, I've found that a lot of oils seem to cause acne for me so I've stopped using them almost completely. Do u have this problem? What do u do about it? Thanks for helping!

Meemee6223 Trader Joe's has their own brand of conditioners. I use Nourish Spa. Whole Foods also sells natural conditioners but I've only tried the aubrey organics (never as a co-wash because it's so thick). Kroger also has natural conditioners in their organic section. Giovanni is a natural conditioner and is sold in most drug stores and at Marshalls and TJ Maxx. I don't oil my scalp just because I don't think my scalp needs oil.
 
Just cut from 0.25-1.00 ins from various sections of my head. Why does my hair look longer than before I cut it?!
Must have been those ratty ends. It looks so much better to me!
 
Officially 9 months natural today. Decided to do a few chunky twists then turned them into bantu knots. This will be interesting once it comes down lol
 
Ok so I can actually say I like my hair right now.It stays under wigs but until recently I say since Aug my hair has really been on a turn up.I can't dwell on what should be in comparison with other folks hair.I could be mad bc my hair isn't at least bsl and I would be natural for 4 years on the 29th.But I can say I didn't get what was needed until I moved out on my own again in Aug.I also believe stress really played a factor my hair lack of growth.I was looking at it a second ago after taking my cornrows down and its so thick and plush.I can't wait for more length so when it does get relaxed it will be a nice length and I won't be depending on weaves for so much..I hope all my new hair products work well for me.
 
I'm not going to know when I hit waist length. I'm only 4 months pregnant and already huge. I hope for a nice surprise when I get my shape back.. which will be about the time my shedding gets real bad :ohwell:
 
Whenever I am finger combing my hair while air drying I use a tissue to collect the shed hairs.....this morning dd pulled out her own shed hair and said "Oh, I need a tissue" grabbed a tissue and put her shed hair in it...:lachen: :lachen:
 
So got bored and there's a bunch of indian grocers around here, decided to try the aruyvedic powders, I mixed Neem, Amla, and Shikakai. OMG my hair felt so stripped even after a moisturizing DC! Because it was feeling so yuck, I just did a twist out with rollers on the ends, so I could not manipulate it too much - once it dried it felt soft and thick, maybe this is a keeper:yep:
 
I digs natural hair but I will be relaxed for awhile. I just put my hair in a pony in less than 10 seconds without a comb nor brush and it's nice and smooth. Nah homie I aint going nowhere.
