Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I finally think I've figured out the reason for my hair's not so awesome state it's in right now. That dang Proclaim Shampoo and conditioner. The shampoo does not moisturize and the conditioner doesn't really condition. Wish it dawned on me before I went so long using it. :/ It will be going in the trash. No need to dwell on it though. Im getting my hair trimmed and sewn up next week so it should be back how I like it soon. :yep:

Huh??? What? What recent happenings? What has got you all loopy over there, girl? I hope you're just talking out of frustration. You and those scissors have been showing out lately. Details.

*NJoy goes to get a switch in case this reasoning isn't good enough and JJ gets trigger happy*

I only trimmed a little :(

Only balding myself will help right now. BUt..... I am taking it slow. I am more disappointed then anything. :( first time it ever happened.
 
The state of my hair is depressing me right about now. I'm convinced it's the pregnancy because nothing else has changed. My hair is so brittle, drier than ever and BREAKING! I am being super gentle with it and trying to nurse it back to health but DCing, moisturizing and PSing is powerless to the force of the evil drybrittleness.
 
OH SNAP!!!! IT'S GOING DOWN! My big sis is getting my hurrrrrrrrr done for Christmas!!!! YAYYYYYY! Best darn gift EVER!!!!

I haven't had my hair relaxed since 8/2010 so you know I'm hyped to finally get my hair done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can. I have an iPhone but I have seen other ladies do it too. I use the LHCF app and just hit reply (to whichever thread you want). Next select insert and select where you have the photo:)

Oooooh. Ill try that! Thanks. Right now I'm on the regular lhcf, but I have the app on my phone so ill try it with that.
 
Today I was in the mirror in my car fussing with my hair and waiting for the light to change. I had my music on blast and I heard a horn honk so I thought the light had changed. I look up and it's still red. I look around to see who is hunking. A brotha on the passenger side of a truck said it looked good and I didn't need to do anything to it. *blush*

I feel great knowing that my hair looks nice without weave or a relaxer. I used to think I had to have both or either to be attractive and now I know I have more options. If I ever chose to go back to relaxing it would be something I can live with but I really do love my hair as it is. Some days I don't like it as much but on those days someone always says something nice about it and I feel better.

I'm glad that people accept natural hair in this part of the south and I'm thrilled to see so many gorgeous (like mouth to floor with drool leaking out) natural heads at work as well. So beautiful! They are my motivation and I hope I am motivation for others. :)
 
I know my hair is growing cause when it got wet by the rain today it was still big (my puff) and it didn't shrink up that much. Yay!

If you stick to posting your pics in the challenges you join, you will be fine. Now if you decide to just post a thread and throw your pic in, um, yeah, they will skin you alive :lol:
 
I am getting my hair braided by my favorite stylist. I promise myself I will keep these braids in (under a wig) for at least 10 weeks. My set back will be a come back. *sucks teeth* watch!!! LOL ;-)
I'm def creaping on BSL but I lost thickness due to that darn sulfur elixir. 2012 means stick to what cha know for me!!
 
I ordered hydrolyzed keratin from gardenofwisdom.com. and I'm testing it out...decided to try it in a spray bottle with water. I just sprayed it on my half of my head (I'm working on braids and I put the spray on the part that's braided). I just did the keratin & water...nothing else. I also sprayed my hair previously with water & castor oil...after a wash & dc/oil rinse. At first I was just gonna add it to conditioner, but decided to make my own keratin spray ala aphogee (which, I've actually never used lol). We'll see how it works out...
 
Ugh, my ends are feeling so thin in these twists. I'm hoping it's due to shrinkage since I'm 35 weeks post. At least I don't see any splits.
 
I have to admit to myself I have alot of hair things.I have many clips,hair bands and such and I don't really wear them.I don't know what to do.I know since I wear wigs so much I don't like the look of adding things to the wig bc it can make it bulky..I guess when ever I relax I will be ready.
 
I'm seriously going to do back to back protective styling rocking only flat twists. I honestly can't deal with my hair out. I just want to leave it alone for weeks at a time and not do a thing.

I think my new year's resolution would be to learn how to do gorgeous, feminine updos. And finally cornrow properly. My flat twist game is getting there.
 
I'm supposed to be getting a relaxer and trim tomorrow and I'm seriously feeling anxious over it...I've never stretched this long and am not sure how my hair will come out.
 
im making this rollerset/flat iron streeetch. but i accidentally sweated on my ends the first night :perplexed.

would it be weird to buy a straight lace front and wear it like a half wig? then i could tuck my ends away and leave out my front.. its still nice and silky... i want the Freetress Giselle wig.
 
Had the bestest dream about having BSL fully natural hair! It was so thick, and sexy... In my dream I couldn't stop touching it! Cannot wait for that day to be real.
