NIN4eva, you do need to trim, but try cutting them gradually. Maybe half the amount now, and then doing .5 a month until your ends look better. That way it's not so drastic. Baby your ends the best you can (((hugs))). Setbacks make me sad. I'm recovering from a December trim myself.


Get a few more opinions.
 
Well it's gone. All the way up to collar bone. I parted that nape out and let it tell me what to do. Stretching should be a whole lot easier now, lol.
 
My BF likes to see my hair straight so every 6 weeks or so I flat iron my hair. It was kinda cold and rainy today so I threw on a hoodie -- and to my surprise I actually had enough hair that I was forced had to pull my hair out of my hoodie. My hair has been short all of my life so I've never had to deal with my hair getting caught in sweaters or shirts. My hair is still just barely shoulder length but I'm still so excited!
 
I think my steamer is dying a slow but surely death. I have been using it weekly for the past month. Last night, I put the water reservoir on top and all of the water ran through the bottom. After mopping up the floor, I refill the water reservoir on top again and it worked out fine.

It worked fine after that but I know that is not a good sign, regardless. I have had my stand steamer since 2007. I will try to hold on to it as long as possible.
 
I am thinking about stretching my next relaxer to the beginning of May. I have almost an inch of new growth already even though it's only been a month. The nape feels the most nappy, I probably have a lot more back there.

Anyway, any tips on how to self-relax really short hair? I keep looking but I just see tips on how to do it with longer locks. I am still torn if I want to do a corrective or not.
 
Giving the DermOrganics line a try. Bought a massive size in the shampoo and masque (found them at marshalls), which was a pretty big investment for something I've never tried before lol. Used them both last night -- I really like :yep:
 
I think I need to find a new leave in. I've been using curly kinks satin roots since about November. Since that time the owner has closed her online shop and said she was going to just work on stocking her distributors. Ok, cool. It happens. Well I went to curlmart and its out of stock..okay..Went to sage and its also out of stock!! Ain't nobody got time for that. Don't nobody wanna be playing a guessing game for when the products will be in stock. I want something more easily accessible.

After my Awapuhi Ginger oil from Organix is done, I think I want to try some Chi Silk Infusion... that's an old product I've always wanted to use that everyone seems to love, plus you don't need a lot of product and it doubles as a heat protectant for the times I actually remember to use it.

Aireen I recently started using Chi Silk infusion a few weeks ago and I fell in love. I have been on this forum for years and never thought to try it until my niece used it do a silk press on my hair.

At the hair show here in Atlanta a few weeks ago, at the Chi stand they were selling the large bottles for $10. My niece picked up some, I wasn't all that impressed at the moment but when she did my hair later on that night. I was all kind of hurt that I didn't get any. I went to the store and paid for price for it the very next day.
 
looks like these braids are staying in for another week. No need to rock the fro this wknd if I have no special plans.

If I end up going out, I'll rock a pretty head scarf
 
Just when I think I know what my hair likes and dislikes it decides to surprise me. I think I have to incorporate aphogee 2 step into my routine, these light proteins are just not cutting it

Lissa0821, I'm definitely considering getting it since my Awapuhi oil isn't always in stock and looks like it will be one of those products that I won't be able to find anymore. I like how you don't need a lot to use is and it still protects your hair from heat. Thanks for telling me, I'll definitely buy it soon!
 
It's a shame that I have ordered 3 hair related things since I placed my Hairveda order.

And I've gotten those 3 things, still don't have my Hairveda. :perplexed
 
I think you ladies who still want the tips can start a new thread in the seller s forum about the oil. According to the forum rules she cannot start her own thread about a product that she sells in the regular hair forum. But anybody else can start the challenge i think, but I am not sure if she can come send share tips in it. To be on the safe side, do it in the vendor s forum. I love any thread with progress pictures so I hope it comes back.

The thread got deleted because I put a link to my order page in the first post. The question kept getting asked every so often in the thread so, I thought it would be more convenient to just link it. I felt like I was inconveniencing some by not linking it. It didn't occur to me that I was spamming...so to speak.

I didn't start the thread to sell. I started the challenge because I was asked to sell and then was getting hit with questions. Someone else started a thread that ended up causing me to release the formula for sale. Then I turned around and made it a challenge because I start challenges and love getting a party started.

The rules dictate that the link be removed. However, the entire thread was removed instead.

I'll just leave it at that, as it seems anything I say now is being deleted. :nono: I don't deserve to be treated like this. I really don't.

No biggie tho. I think I'll live. :lol:

My only problem with that is feeling separated from the fun and sent down to the dungeon with the other vendors. I don't wanna be in the vendor section. I wanna come out and play with the other members. *kicks rock* It's just not fair! I never get to have any fun. *pouty mouth*

Girl, it was the greatest thread EVER!!!! (since you didn't see it. :lol:)

Nah, but it's ok. I guess getting "poofed" is better than getting "whacked".

(yep. it's past my bedtime. I'm deliriously corny now, for sure)

I'll live. :look:

Oh, and I think you'll love fabulous in red. Fiesty!!! :yep:
