It was super cheap! It was at the supermarket in the Caribbean foods section, for about $3-$4. I can only imagine how my hair would be after a steam session...Lawd! :lovedrool:

Dang that was cheap! My friend paid $15 for mine at Native Sun (similar to Wholefoods)
 
What to do, what to do? It's time to wash my strands, but I can't decide on how to style it after my final rinse.
 
Ladies I just have to share:) I have been using a mister for about 2 weeks now to apply oil to my scalp and ends after I have set my style and it is the best thing since sliced bread. I am normally a little heavy handed and this allows me not to be in addition to giving even coverage. Someone mentioned this a while back and I wash using it for the kitchen but I just got to using it on my hair. It really stretches my oils. I linked the one I got below.

I used ASIAN Coconut Cowash on the puppies and their fur is so soft while smelling awesome:) too bad it was too stripping for my hair:/

A while back I had peeped a thread in the healthy living section, where they talked about red palm oil helping to grow long hair. It's been on my list, but I haven't been able to secure any till now. LOL, you shoulda seen me in the supermarket! My mom officially thinks I'm nuts, cause I just snatched it off the shelf like it was Gold.

I've also been using it in my boys hair, and for the first time in Ever their hair is moist and soft the next day. They have the thirstiest curls Ever, and finally that thirst has been slaked! And their curls are so defined too... :lick:

Everyone...go get some. :yep:
 
So I detangled and put my hair in nice chunky twists in preparation for henna. Chunky until it gets to my relaxed ends. *sigh* Twists always provoke me into cutting an inch off. I think I'm gonna cut 2" this time. I still have plenty of time to grow it back, huh? *shrugs*

Now where'd I put my scissors? :perplexed
 
I am enjoying my journey so much better since I BC again:) I am documenting with pictures and enjoying PSing more. I have learned so much from the ladies on LHCF that I feel like I can do anything.
 
Today marks my 1 year anniversary since my big chop! Im loving the Natural side of me these days......

Something about the banana clip ponytail, that the guys really like....second time a guy has reached out to feel it when my hair is like this...

Sent from my Sprint HTC EVO using LHCF
 
I keep buying these conditioners,moisturizers etc ,in 10 years of hair care i m in denial with the fact i dont need much for my hair and i hardly finish anything..
 
Rethinking braids. My edges are finally back to normal and I don't want to mess them up.
Yeah I know, less hair and larger parts for the edges, but I'm just paranoid!
 
My henna/indigo came Wednesday evening. I was supposed to mix it last night to use tonight. Didn't do that and figured I would get up early today and mix before work. Didn't do that. So now it's down to mixing it tonight to use Saturday night. I've got to do it when I get home!!
 
On March 3, 2012, I texlaxed my hair after I was relaxer free for 5 years (my last relaxer back then WAS March 1, 2007). And now here I am transitioning again. :grin:

Call me crazy, but I actually enjoy transitioning. :look:

What? :look:

No seriously ... I really do enjoy it.

:grin:
 
Never again in my life will I ever apply ORS uplifting shampoo to my hair:nono::nono::nono:. I had done a pre-poo before hand using the patchouli85 method and when I rinsed, my hair was a glorious mass of delicious moisturised coils. I then shampooed with this atrocity and it turned my hair into dry hard crackling shrunken tangled mess. It was horrendous. There was no time to do another DC so I applied like 5 different kinds of moisturisers for a few minutes. It softened my hair a bit but the former moisturised curls were gone. I don't know what possessed me to use it. My staple is usually Giovanni SAS moisturising shampoo.

Do you mix the Henna and Indigo together? I find that regardless if I mix the henna the same day or a few days before, I still get the same results. If I Indigo..I usually mix my henna that day (or day before since I let it sit overnight) and it doesn't matter either.
 
About to go to sleep with with a mix of henna/indigo in, this is my first time trying this so I am hoping all goes smoothly. Cause I will be annoyed if it comes out looking a mess!
