So I'm sitting under the dryer deep conditioning without my glasses on. I see what I think could be a spider or a centipede running near my chair. I jump up and hit it with my house slipper...it is of course, some of my shed hair. I gotta get my glasses fixed!

Yes! Or a strand will be sticking out in my peripheral vision and I think it's something about to land on me!
 
How do I create this style?

I can't wait for elevatestyles.com's next big wig sale. I won't be purchasing anymore at full cost because I will be using my blow money for those. Trying to save up as much of it as I can so I can be ready for the sale when it does take place:yep:.
 
Was reading old bee mine threads. Saw when tiffers help create the kiwi strawberry scent. She suggested it and it was made. Im a first timer and it smells great.
Wonder if anyone still uses this.
 
Venturing over to these parts...I used to be obsessed with my hair but once I reached my goal I sort of gave up. Now my hair is a disastuh. I feel like a newbie.

Don't think I can cowash anymore. Makes my scalp and roots get build up them I'm left with an itchy scalp.

melissa-bee,

Try ending co-wash with diluted acv rinse to remove excess product. I use 1 tablespoon acv in 1/2 gallon water.

You can also dilute the conditioner with tap water or distilled water. It is easy to overdo it.

May Hair Plans:

- Take vitamins daily with food
- Wash hair every 4-7 days
- Condition hair with keratin
- Go for touch-up after 8th
- Get a good cut/trim (Hopefully too much doesn't have to come off but I'm willing regardless)
- Wait patiently for my new blow-drier (I'm excited because it's new and it's the same one my hairdresser uses)
 
Which blow dryer is this @Aireen? Can a girl get a lank??

Co-signing on the vitamins, washing 1x a week--I slacked off to every 2 weeks this semester--and giving myself a good trim. :yep:
 
As weird as this may sound, i feel like once i accomplish my goal this year of full bsl or MBL, people will start taking me more seriously. some family members are already asking me to make them "some of that stuff I use in my hair". I say, "its not what you use, its how you use it". they dont wanna hear that. My cousin who does my relaxers said "all that stuff you use in your hair gone make yo hair fall out" (all while she reaches for the oil sheen to flat iron my hair, and the fine-toothed comb to comb through it smh) then she says "all i do to my hair is grease my scalp and keep it under weaves" I replied "omg you shouldnt use blue magic on your scalp, try an oil if its gets dry" and she said "they didnt teach that in beauty school". I didnt reply. But watch, once she sees me reach my goal, she gone be asking me to make her some of "that stuff" too.
sorry for the long ramble ladies, im just bored.

Mische, it's called Elchim! My hairdresser uses the red one and I bought the white. (I don't know why I told you that... I guess I'm into the little details. :lol:) If you're buying anything, like them on FB for a discount code or I can just PM it to you.

I've slacked too... my hair is a MESS and I feel like every time I visit RT I say that, I need to get it together. :look:
 
Tonight I noticed that I had a few pics on my camera from my BC last year & my hair has grown so much in the almost 10 months I've been natural. I'm so happy I've found a regimen & products that works for me (all reasonable priced & over the counter). Now if only there were a cure for my shrinkage lol. It's so funny when I detangle & get ready to twist looks like my hair is 2 inches then once twisted its so long lol.
 
Well...hubby just left town for a week for work til Friday. And me left with a fresh haul from the Hair Show? Oh, it is ON!!!

It's gonna be a gansta party, party, party. A gangsta hair party, party, party.

I've tried that before I really can't be bothered to go through that. To me a cowash is supposed to be quick and refreshing and it's not quick if I have to dunk my head in acv. I may as well just shampoo each wash.

Just curious, what conditioner are you using? Could it be the ingredients? How often do you do an actual wash?

I use the blue Herbal Essences. I think it's the shea butter I use on my hair that's causing the build up.
I would never cowash twice in a row so I do an actual wash every other wash.
 
so busy this weekend....I didn't have a chance to do my usual shampoo/dc/style on Saturday....Just took my hair that had been in a pincurl set all week into a ponytail....it's still pretty curly on the ends.....At church yesterday I got so many compliments on that simply pony...I always lament that my progress isn't as great as I think it should be, but yesterday I felt so good to be complimented on the "health" of my hair....That I can throw my hair up into a pony and still have it be healthy and bouncy......:reddancer:

Thanks! Aireen hey, I appreciate the small details!! This dryer looks great though, especially the drying time as I had to go over sections waaaay too many times yetserday with my cheapie blow dryer. :ohwell: Maybe this would help cut down on some of those broken hairs.

How long is the discount code good for? I might be able to swing it at the end of the month.
