Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

My hair just needs to pass the bottom of my Brastrap already. I've been there this whole year thus far... I NEED MBL!

Then again because of my short torso, BSL is the middle of my back:drunk:

I just hope I can get to WL this year.

Oh, and I cannot WAIT to flat iron next month.
 
I'm beginning to realize that half the time products don't work, your lace fronts wigs are "poor quality" are because people aren't using them properly. Who wears wig straight out the bag without washing it? A fool that's who. Your cap size is wrong..who's fault is that? Common sense sure isn't common. The product says "use when your hair is soaking wet, you use it when your hair is dry. Seriously what do you expect? I'm sorry, just a little annoyed today.
 
taking my weave out this saturday. the thought of dealing with almost 2 inches of new growth has me reeling :( i hope i avoid relaxing but the weather is getting so humid...idk....i still am determined to be a straight haired natural.

I mostly just want to do a length check. it's been months.
Pray for me ladies. I hope I'm SL.
 
I wish my son didn't have football practice because I would be co washing . I think I need to co wash daily because this Alabama heat is very drying to my hair. LE STRUGGLE

you can do it :yep: just think of where you will be this time next year if you don't give up!
 
I fell asleep with protein conditioner in you hair and now it is thicker than ever before and not in a good way. It also took forever to get wet. I think I have over-protein-ized (:giggle:) my hair.
 
Have to work this weekend and really not feeling wash day. Well not feeling the tension drying part of wash day...
 
Okay... I need to make this damn hair appointment for the first week in June. Right now my hair is in need of being put away! I think the first Tuesday in June will be the day I get this weave done. Now I just need to save for my stylist...

Although ::sekret:: I'm thinking of going to the weave bar and paying MUCH less then she'll charge... I love my stylist I do, but I love my money more...
 
I am tired of my straight hair. I knew I was going to do this. Press and want to wash it out. I am annoying.

Someone said to use oil on your hair overnight then DC with a moisturizing conditioner the next day.

Don't make me lie and ask me what kind oil it was. I cannot remember. :lol:

i've been saying i'm going to do a flexirod set for a solid 3 weeks. :lol:
mayyyyybe it'll happen this weekend. idk tho. this bun right here looks quite all right.
 
sooooo i did some budget crunching ....I don't think I can afford sew ins.

Taking it down costs $50.
Reinstalling it cost anywhere from 150-175.
To style it the day of costs about $60-75.

You could easily spend $300 in one day just getting your hair done for a sew in and you can only wear it for 2 months.

On the other side of things, getting your hair done at home without a sew in cost about $20 for 8 weeks (shampoo and conditioner), or a little over $2 a weekend. If you even wanted to get a relaxer, it's maybe $60, so my hair budget every two months would be $100. Less if I skipped relaxers and just pressed my hair at home.

So I'm torn :( I really love sew ins but its really not cheap at ALL. It's barely affordable. If I made this a regular thing, I'd miss out on savings or debt paydowns. I hate this hair journey. I feel like i can never win.
 
Earlier today, just finished trimming my hair and twisting it in bantu knots. I think it's cute for an evening out, but I can't wear it for work (style seems kiddish to me). Oh well, *pulls hair into bun*.

Why not get a upart wig and sew it onto cornrows and do it yourself? It is basically the same. Except you will have more access to your hair and would be cheaper in the long run.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y
