Je Ne Sais Quoi

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:

Damn...I just got my oil today and I was coming in to catch up on the challenge. It's gone????
 
Damn, the thread is gone? I loved that thread/challenge, it was really positive & everyone was very supportive. Maybe someone will start a chew challenge.
 
If there was an issue with the link, delete it, not the thread. That thread had lots of great info/tips, in fact, I was FREAKIN OUT when I couldn't find it last night....urgh!!!!!:ohwell:

i wanna recolor my hair black, but i want to wait until it gets longer. i don't think i will color it myself. it will be too long for me to make sure all of my hair is covered and i don't want to get in the shower with that stuff running down my back. i will have to go to a salon. so with that being said. i am going to wait until the fall/winter to color. i think i will have my hair in a balanced state to allow someone else to handle it.
 
I think once i get to WL im gonna give myself a really good 1 inch trim just to have super healthy ends.

Ive been trimming a quarter to a half an inch off every 3-6 months.

Im just so excited that im so close to my goal!!
 
Recently texturized after almost 4 years natural! Nothing major. Still have coils and curls. I just have less shrinkage, bulk and tangles than before. I plan to up my protein and do the roots about 3x a year. There's more pics/info on my blog(siggie/profile link).
 
So I went to the "Wig Warehouse" today...it was bananas! There were sooo many...probably at least 500...and the prices were really good. I bought two wigs...a short do and a 3/4 wig that matches my twist out pretty good. They both came to $36. I'll try to post pics of them tomorrow.

Atdow71...it was great. I really couldn't even take my time to look because I had groceries in the car and I didn't want the frozen stuff to melt. Next time i'm gonna take my time.

I was! I walked in and was mesmerized...then i asked the lady working there if she minded if I took pics...I've been in wig stores before but they were usually small boutique-y like places or BSS'...this was something totally unexpected. lol
 
I want a sew in but no idea what hair to buy for the sew in. I want some hair with a little wave in it. Thinking about reusing this brobraz hair for now as I search for some quality hair I want. I wanted some braids. I'm all over the place with my hair.

Decided to go hard on this PS'ing again until I'm at HL. When I got to WL I thought I was too cute & stopped PS. smh Bad mistake. Got a relaxer & was still at WL. That has never happened to me before. So back to going hard on these PS's until my final goal. I do hate that I have to do that. I guess hair is funny that way. *shrugs*
 
Recently found out that I have high porosity hair...I'm about 90% sure, so it looks like I have some researching to do!

Currently deep conditioning with ORS Replenishing Conditioner. I'm learning that I do not need to cake on conditioner to receive the benefits. My hair feels so nice and soft with just a little bit of product :) I also ordered a 4oz bottle of extra virgin olive oil...I remember using it in the beginning of my hair journey, but I think I was very heavy handed with it. This time I'll put it in my applicator bottle to control the amount I use. I hope my ends respond well to it, I figure I need something heavier than coconut oil to seal and prevent splits.

Almost 4 years post relaxer and I'm only now passing CBL :(

Slow and steady wins the race melissa-bee. As long as you're making progress you'll get there. But it can be frustrating- I hear ya!

The longer my hair gets the more I'm loving my braidouts. But I think the daily manipulation is holding me back from making better progress :ohwell:

I really need to buy a striped shirt for length checks. I thought about buying one of those length checks shirts but I'm too fugal and would want something that I could still wear out.
 
May need to start cowashing or at least rinsing my hair after workouts since my hair has been so dry. I workout in my wig and I workout hard so maybe the sweat is making my hair real dry. I want to relax next month so I don't need any issues.
 
Wow! I'm talking to my friend about hair and she feels that if a black person has long hair they are mix with something.

REALLY!!! : ?

That's what ppl use to tell me all the time! So until I joined this forum I did not know black girls just straight african american, black american girls could have long hair. Ppl made it seem like you had to be jamaican, mixed, or dominican to have long hair...
