I'm having trouble with this one...when you start going on LHCF...again? I think this is my third or fourth go 'round coming to the board? LOL I'm trying to think: When are you not on a hair journey. I've been on one practically my whole life!

- When your storage space goes from having grease and pink lotion to deep conditioners, leave-in conditioners, oils, and butters.
- When you read ingredients before buying a product.
- When you go from being able to count the products in your stash on one hand to not being able to count them on two.

So according to this...I've been on a hair journey for about 26 years! I was like "pink lotion just doesn't' work!" Of course, I do have some...the sheer formula is the best (discontinued).

-When food products stop being used for food in your home, ex. Coconut oil, olive oil, coconut milk...
-When you realize you have a conditioner addiction
-When you start giving your friends, and family the side eye for their hair practices...even though you just stopped doing the same things...
-When you use all the abbreviations but you're not in the forum, and tell people you're almost full SL, and wouldn't have gotten there without weekly DC's, ACV Rinses, and using AVJ and EVOO as a Pre-Poo.

When people scrolling through the pictures on your camera say, "why are there so many pics of your back?"
When people ask "Why do you have all these horse products? You got a stable out back or something?"
When you make plans around your hair schedule.
When, if your plans change, you still find a way to get your dc.
One time my friend wanted to go shopping. I wanted to go too, so I put my dc in, put on a shower cap, 2 black wig caps (so you couldn't see the shine from the plastic), and my wig and headed out. That was one of my best dc's!

When you start viewing your once favorite hairstylist as the enemy instead of your personal savior.
When you start trying to preach to your friends and family about the vices of their daily hair routines.
When you start spending large amounts of time scanning the labels of hair products in search of scary words like mineral oil, parabens, and sulfates. (and less time basing your puchase decision on how nice the product smells.)
When you find yourself purchasing high quality oils for your hair and lesser quality for cooking.

When you go way past the time limit on a product's directions for DCing
When you keep a hair tie because you know as soon as you feel your hair snag on your shirt you're gonna put your hair in a bun no matter how cute you were.

This - except in my case it's cousins, lol
-when you start prefacing your advice with "now keep in my mind, what works for me may not work for you." People swear I'm the hair guru and I will tell them in hearbeat, I know a little bit about a little bit.

When no one wants to talk about hair with you anymore.
When people randomly start asking you about what you said a year ago before you started annoying everyone by constantly talking about hair.

[USER=147242 said:Arian[/USER];16411883]when cutting your hair doesn't make a difference to you because you know there is healthier hair waiting on the other side....
*at least that's what I have to tell myself while I'm getting my haircut this week*
Don't cry. Healthier hair is waiting for you. I'm a little jealous though. I have to wait until August for my cut. It's going to be fine.

faithVA, I was going to wait until August. But I can't. I'm ready to let the remainder of these bad ends go. My hair feels atrocious and I know it's because of the color/bleach because my new growth is much softer and better equipped to hold on to moisture.
