Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

⏳ Limited Access:

Register today to view all forum posts.

I have got my regimen down pretty good now the only debate is do I do my hair after school on Thursday or do I do it on Sunday after church:) Hummm... decisions, decisions.

I really need to get to Target to get a scarf it was cold as heck last night and walking to my car was ridiculous.
 
I've been using castor oil for oil cleansing...finally decided to use it to seal in moisture on Monday :lick:

Now I'm kicking myself in the butt wondering why I didn't try it before.


And since I don't want a whole thread on my progress here are some phone pics from my blow out and trim in December!

I washed my hair last night and I was waiting for my sister to come braid it. My cousin came in and he was like "you're gonna braid THAT??" and started laughing and said "That sh!t's nappy". That kinda pissed me off. I know my hair is 'nappy' I have 4b hair......are you expecting silky ringlets??? I like my hair and I usually don't care about these kinds of comments. This especially bothered me because he's always talking about how "good" my daughter's hair is. She does happen to have ringlets.
 
@cami88 Sorry about that. I love your siggy!

On another note--I know this is going to sound crazy but it really pisses me off that Shea Moisture has time and money to develop new lines and new products but can't put a basic website together. I need to be able to read the back of a product label before I get in my car and hunt for the product. I'm tired of going back and forth between walgreens.com and target.com just to find out what the product is claiming to do. Just put an effin' link for each product line so people can read about the products! Geesh! [Insert cursing smiley here becasue I'm too lazy to look and for it and haven't learned the code for it.]

Deep conditioned overnight with SE Mega Silk Moisture Treatment. Rinsed & followed up by cowashing w/HE Hello Hydration Conditioner. Detangled, trimmed my ends, moisturized w/NTM Silk Touch Leave In, and sealed w/a blend of coconut & castor oil. My hair feels :lick: but I think the winter air is already sucking the moisture I JUST put in :pullhair: ! Loosely bunned, slapped on a bonnet and called it a night.

I think I'm feelin' this coconut & castor oil blend. It seems like I may be able to use castor oil daily as long as I keep the coconut oil as a larger part of the formula...otherwise castor oil is too thick for me (read: causes breakage!). I'll use it to fill in my edges/nape & counteract some of the breakage around my crown. I think the breakage occurred from a lack of moisture, so I may have to implement cowashes a bit more and keep an eye out.
 
I guess this thread is the best place to say...Did anyone see Oprah's hair last night when she interviewed Lance Armstrong? Is ALL that hair really Oprah's?!?!? Dang!
 
Wash my hair this morning and blow dried. I put my hair in a bun w/ hair sticks. I've never been able to put my hair in a bun with hair sticks! A milestone I tell you!! Milestone! :bouncegre
 
So now I've got that awkward semi-bob head situation going on...it's grown past shaved, past Halle Berry...sigh.....

But it's thick as heck and is kinda hard to slick down in gel! I trimmed the nape once to shape it up a bit and now it's all over the place. I shouldn't complain. No more shaping...just letting it go wild.

Henna/Indigo is very nice this time around but I admit I need to deep condition it more often. I aim to deep condition once weekly.
 
So my ex told me that my hair is 'pretty amazing'. (he hasn't seen me in 2 years). *blushing* Then proceeded to carefully try to pin my hair up out of the way w/ his durag while getting ready to watch a netflix. LOL!!!
 
To my surprise daily scalp massages have further reduced my shedding....i hope there isn't a shed level that's too low for scalp health..between massages and tea rinsing I'm not getting near 50+ sheds a day...
 
:look:Imma do this hardcore hardcore protein thang sometime btw sat-mon and next week when I get this ish flatironed and dusted next week it betta be longer than the bald headed bsl I was back in october.....I AIN'T PLAYIN WIT CHA SCALP, BLOOD VESSELS, CAPILLARIES, & SUCH!!!! Y'all hear me, d*mn it?! I'm the boss and in charge here!!!

The new viviscal tastes disgusting.

Going back to megatek for now. I ne
ed a new moiturizer. ORS isn't cutting it during these winter months.
 
Next wash will probably be Wednesday or Thursday if this Nizoral I tried worked. I'm going to really up the protein, I think this relaxer wasn't that great on my hair.
 
So I left Nexxus Emergencee in my hair mixed w/a bit of moisturizing condish,because its breaking like crazy. I let it dry like a leave in treatment. It dried hard,but it looked normal.
So my SO calls me over to talk last night.
Of course he then proceeds to stick his hands all up in my stiff arse fro.
Ugh,now I need to deep condition and plot how i'm going to casually get him to play in it when its soft and sessy.
*sucks teeth*
 
I'm having one of my lazy days when I feel too annoyed to deal with my hair. I don't wanna touch it or even look at it. My hair has been on its best behavior the last two weeks.. But if it were chopped off today I wouldn't care..as long as I could get it all back tomorrow lol
