Last night I tried something different. I applied my DC like a relaxer, focusing on the areas that are more difficult to comb through.. It really made a differentlce in the way my hair came out this AM. I will use this method with every DC from now on. I do not plan to cowash this week unless I get exposed to something nasty at work. I'm back to using coconut regularly.

I'm having the same problem! I put my hair in large box braids the other day and was shocked at how sparse my edges are. I know my hair is fine and thin but dang. :nono: I have no choice but to bun though so idk. I think I wrap my head scarf too tight and my satin bonnet lays right on my edges. :cry3:

My hair is fine too. When I neglect my hairline it goes on holiday lol.

Last time JBCO applied at night brought it back nicely.
 
Why are Trader Joe's Tree shampoo and body wash sold in practically identical bottles? I just discovered that I've spent the last two months washing my hair with body wash. :blush:

Oh man! LOL they look really similar LaChaBla were you using the shampoo before? Did you notice a difference? You know a lot of companies' shampoos and body washes have similar ingredients.
 
I want to wash and set my hair, but a part of me wants to wait until I get my extra set of 12 rollers in the mail...They should be here this week...I should wash it though, it's in need of a good DC.

halee_J, I don't know if there's a difference. At this point, I'm not sure that I ever bought the shampoo. For all I know, I've been using the bodywash this whole time! :lachen:
 
LaChaBla :lol::lol::lol: Well, do you like it? I mean if its gentle and has good ingredients then, I mean... if it ain't broke...:lachen: You should try the shampoo and see how it compares, at the very least you'll have a backup if you run out or cant find the shampoo :grin:
 
Got a 4oz jar of Oyin's Whipped Shea (rich almond scent) to tide me over until I can buy the whole store out. I got 2 full sized free samples of a Grand Poo Bar and Cuppa Joe Soap. I used the Cuppa Joe an hour ago. So soft everywhere.

Another failed curlformer set:/ I refuse to sleep on these right now and my hair takes FOREVER to dry. The good thing is my hair is stretched so minimal SSKs and splits.

I am curious to know this as well. I have never used the shampoo, but I have used the body wash (on my body) and found it quite drying. I love the condish for detangling and co-washing.
 
I started trying to skimp on products for price and convenience and noticed my hair wasn't doing as well as before. I have gone back to the products my hair likes and it is back in heaven. It feels and looks soft, it is shiny, and retains moisture. Never again.
 
Can't wait to cowash or use a cleansing conditioner tonight. Sweated like a pig at the gym Friday-today since I last washed Thursday night...Ick.

Been neglecting my hair. Irregular wash days, shampooing more than usual, cowash instead of a good dc session, no (just) cowashing during the week...

Im slacking yall forreal idk whats up with me

Swype thinks weird and wierd are both correct
 
I was at the hospital this morning to get vaccinated and this Indian lady about to give me the injection asks if my hair is all mine without extensions. Normally I don't entertain any questions about my hair but bi*****h was about to stick a needle in me so I decided to play nice. I told her it was all mine without extensions. She then asked how I combed it. I said with conditioners.

Before I could stop her, this psycho dips her hand in my hair then says it's like a mattress. I was like, "Que the f****?" She then points to her own hair and said, "this one, not a mattress." I was like, "Er, can i get my injection now?" She seemed surprised I didn't find it amusing.

It all happened so fast. It was like a drive by. I swear something is seriously wrong with some women. How can you just stick your hand in another person's hair without invitation and then call it a mattress? I think I'm going to be a ****** about my hair from now on:


Ignoramus: Is that your hair?
Me: Nope, I got it off a yeti in the Himalayas.
Ignoramus: How do you comb your hair?
Me: I use unicorn blood and vampire spit.
Ignoramus: Can I touch your hair?
Me: Sure, if you want to know what been karate chopped feels like.

I don't understand the mattress reference. What was she trying to imply?

I thought so too then when she pointed out that hers wasn't as hard as mattress, I realised she meant something else.

I thought spongy as a mattress. You know bounces back and forth as opposed to flat like hers. :lol:

side note: I know some people like or need hard mattresses, but I hate them. I will not visit someone twice if the mattress in their guest bedroom is crappy :nono::lachen:.
 
For some reason I find it odd that I have only flat ironed my bangs for the last 2 1/2 weeks. Wet/daily moisturizing and wrapping leaves my hair PRETTY straight. And its been so cold I havnt been able to wear my hair out much. So that means buns or pony tails all the time. So by the time I wear my hair down (on the 3rd day of wrapping) its pretty much straight...WOO. Some of my texture is coming back.
 
So, i do not want to wash my hair until i get my extra rollers...having said that i really hope they some this week :rolleyes:
