Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[BostonMaria]

I feel like cousin It sometimes walking around with all this hair LOL I have been neglecting my hair so I asked God to forgive me (yup I sure did!) and promised myself to take better care of my hair.

I deep conditioned with coconut milk+conditioner+avocado oil + coconut oil + wheat germ oil for about 2 hours. I then rollerset, sat under the dryer for TWO HOURS, and then flatironed. I really love how coconut milk makes my hair so shiny and moisturized.

I am about an inch away from hip length, but I think once I make it to hip I'm going to cut it back up to MBL. DH is going to probably cry in a fetal position when I do.

This HHJ is too expensive!!

 

[NappyNelle]

Maybe I should flat iron this week instead... I'm nervous, yet excited to see how my hair looks this time around.

O.K. I've chucked out the biotin bills. I took it during food and in addition to the dizziness, I also had headaches and considerable blurry vision. msbettyboop don't wanna grow hair THAT much. erplexed

I went back to the pharmacy and picked up a hair, skin and nails formula with biotin as part of the components. I've been using it for the last two days and I feel just fine now.

Ah the sweet smell of American arrogance.

regime noun ( MANAGEMENT )

/reɪˈʒiːm/ [C]


Definition




• a particular way of operating or organizing a business, etc
The regime in this office is hard work and more hard work.

 

[MrsJaiDiva]

Yes! JeterCrazed & MsDes...you are So right.

Regiment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regiment


Now...you can lead your Regiment in battle, should your Regime instigate a coup d'etat....but I doubt you'll be very concerned about your hair at that time.

However, if you want to talk about adding a new DC to your REGIMEN...LHCF is a highly appropriate venue to do just that.

Words have meanings. Thank you.

Politics

In politics, a regime is the [form of government]: the set of rules, cultural or social norms, etc. that regulate the operation of government and its interactions with society.

Modern usage
While the word regime originates as a synomym for any form of government, modern usage often gives the term a negative connotation, like an authoritarian government or dictatorship. Webster's definition states that the word "regime" refers simply to a form of government [1], while Oxford English Dictionary defines regime as "a government, especially an authoritarian one" [2]. Nowadays the political use the word regime is most commonly applied to any government that is most of the time not democratically elected and impose strict and often arbitrary rules and laws on the people that are, because of the undemocratic nature of the government, non-negotiable.

In British English, the word can also be used to describe a way of organizing or operating. You know, the Brits, the ones that actually created the language?

Before you jump on your high horse in the future, do some research.

Let me turn up my arrogance and say that English was created by the GERMANS which is why so many words sound the same between German, Dutch and Afrikaans. The English merged the Old English dialect with the Anglo-Saxon Norwegian dialect and we got Middle English, which was adapted by many nations, not just Scotland/ Britian/ Wales. The Irish (Edited) speak Gaelic, Welsh speak Welsh and Britians were speaking Kentish/Anglic. SO Brits do not necessarily get the authority on the English language.

Point taken. But if the Brits don't have any authority, Americans should probably never speak on it. Don't be condescending about stuff when all you have to do is a very simple google search or just ask.

I will give you regiment, but regime/regimen are both correct in this context.

You mean like Googling the origins of English?
Don't dish it if you cant take it.

ETA: Danke

I believe I used the word correctly in a sentence, and backed up my definition. And since your definition doesn't have anything to do with protein treatments, or how many times to cowash a week....I'll just give you my two fingers n keep it movin!

(it's all love...most of my family's in London)

 

[faithVA]

Eeeee

Absolutely Beautiful!

Regimen is actually about diet and therapy, so protein... Yeah, actually.

Im done, tho, cuz my point's been made. Hehe

 

[itismehmmkay]

Greased my scalp yesterday. We'll see what that means.

What was your point? I never got what exactly you were objecting to.

 

[Ogoma]

I need to figure out new ways to style my hair. I am getting tired of my two styles, but feel too lazy to find something else.

 

[Evolving78]

had a good hair weekend. i think i will wash tomorrow or wednesday. i am experiencing no breakage right now or crazy shedding, so i know this only occurs when my new growth gets crazy. this is why i won't be doing long stretches. 8-10 weeks for me. an as long as i don't over process, my hair should be nice and thick. my purpose in stretching was to make sure i have enough new growth to prevent overlapping and for thickness.

Regime is never going to apply to healthy hair practices. Nope, no Mam!

ETA: The Regime in this Regiment requires that my Regimen includes bunning.

 

[doll-baby]

After an entire year of being disappointed in my hair I have finally decided to give it my all and jump back on the hair growing wagon !

Using MN straight every other day and moisturizing with S-curl activator spray.

My hair goal is to be APL by November

 

[Ogoma]
