Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I've been using Qhemet products on my relaxed hair and love the results - lasting moisture and soft new growth, loved them on my natural hair as well but forgot how quality they are. I'm also using Darcy's transitioning creme too, awesome for smoothing edges, which I wasn't expecting. My only complaint is that the products (especially Qhemet) build up on my hair very quickly. No surprise I guess since her products are very concentrated and designed to penetrate. I now wash with a sulfate shampoo every 4 days and I'm surprised some people can co-wash while using these products.

Even still, I'm glad I ignored the sales lady in the natural hair store who tried to talk me out of buying Qhemet products saying they wouldn't work on my hair.
 
Okay, what is the point of buying a ton of expensive seamless combs, if you have a snag in your nail while your doing your hair? :look:
 
For my natural anniversary, I colored my hair. Right now I have the conditioner in my hair and I am debating if I want to sleep in it or not. Cause if I do, tomorrow I will be doing light protein and DC. Or I might just leave it in for awhile, wash it out and then put a plastic bag over my head when I go to sleep and then wake up and do the protein and DC. Hmmm. Not sure. But I will be posting pics in a thread that I will create. I just feel so great. I wanted to dye my hair for years. That's all for now.
 
Dang you Dr. Oz:/ Everytime you mention something on your show I can't find my staples on the shelf BOOOOOOO.
 
Interesting experiment this weekend. I was supposed to wash my hair and did a prepoo with coconut oil and aloe Vera juice. After an hour, I was too lazy to wash so I re wet and did a roller set instead. After my hair dried, it was beyond soft and shiny and not a frizzy hair in sight! I'm going to wash this weekend and roller set with coconut oil and aloe Vera juice only to see if this happens twice.

Has anyone else tried this before?

Since it's spring I changed around my hair products. Some products are tried and true but others are lighter so I think they would be good for spring. I am noticing my stash isn't really all that big at all. Maybe my pjism has finally died.

Girl, pjism doesn't die. It just lies dormant awaiting a time when an evil product pusha will get it all riled up again and before you know what you're doing, your almost empty bathroom shelf is almost full again! :lachen:
 
I love these senegalese twists but dang....I miss my hair.
Its been less than a week and I'm already thinking about taking them out.
But the whole point of putting them in was to stop touching my hair.

*whines*
I want my hair back.
 
I don't think my hair likes my new moisturizer. I'll give it to my sissy then. Trying out Just For Me Hair Milk this week. I love creamy hair products.
 
Is it possible to have a growth spurt randomly? I think my hair may have grown a good inch this month. Which I would assume is impossible for me but my hair is much much fuller and longer over the course of 3 weeks...
 
may have almost convinced one of the ladies at my church to go natural, even though I got hit with the "you have a good grade of hair" line. little does she know the naps that lie underneath...but i'm willing to show that if my super thin strand, low density, highly susceptible to tangles hair can be natural, so can hers!
 
For once I'm in no rush to relax and I'm cool with that. It will happen when it happens.

I am having a real hard time caring about my hair right now. It's healthy, thick, full of moisture and all that good stuff, but I don't really care about tending to it anymore. I got too much IRL going on to be worrying about hair.

Now let me go do something with it so I'm not starting a thread 3 months down the road complaining about a setback or why I ain't were I wanna be.
 
I used a paddle brush on my hair last night and detangling took literally five minute or so. I wrung too much water off my hair and left the towel on too long however. So when I went to add my leave ins and such, it was a stringy, frizzy mess. :lol: Lesson learned, add leave in and styling products to soaking wet hair after using a paddle brush or you're going to have a bad time.
 
wore my hair straight for a little over a week. the longest ive worn my hair straight in the 7 years ive been natural. i usually hate it and wash it out almost right away, but it came out pretty nice this time. people kept commenting on how long my hair is getting at first, i was frustrated because *i* wasnt feeling like it was growing. by the end of the week with the straight hair, i started to realize that it actually was longer.

ive washed it out now. back to the naturalness. it was fun doing straight, but now, im back to my lovely kinks, curls, naps, coils and alladat.

maybe i'll try straightening again in another 6 months?
 
I need to ask a question. Is it something wrong with a 3 year old getting a sew in?
I say yes, it's not right, everybody else thinks it's perfectly normal and ok:perplexed
 
I can feel my scalp. I relaxed, rollerset, and trimmed. I love it! I do miss the 2 textures though, LOL!

There's not one thing right about that.
It's actually very disturbing. :nono:

Everybody thinks I'm "hating". They just keep saying "at least she won't have to comb her hair for awhile, and it will grow". I'm very disturbed by this, but she's not my kid and there is nothing I can do about it:sad:.
She already has a thinning edges and nape from having tight braids(with her own hair)all the time.
