I can't wait to relax because when you stretch and your hair shrinks it seems like you have no retention even though you know there was no breakage

i have watched two of my friends cut ALL their hair off and start from 3 inches of hair to grow to bsl or longer in the same amount of time that i was transitioning..........
i NEVER cut all my hair off....it has been cut back to SL a few times during my journey....
these chicks cut ALL their hair off and now have hair longer than mine.
NOT Fair.

It really is discouraging
At the grocery store earlier today, I was picking up some fruit when I felt a tap on my arm. I look down to see a little girl of about five years old. She looks at me and says "I love your hair". I told her thank you and that I love her hair too. She says thank you and runs back to her dad. Isn't that adorable?

Cantu left my fair feeling great! First time I've used it in my natural journey.

I left my hair loose (i.e. not twisted or braided) for two months. I was certain that I was damaging my hair. However, I twisted my hair up a few days ago. Since then, I've washed my twists twice and realize that my twists are hanging way longer than before. Plus, my ends look great. Interesting. I guess I did a good job keeping it moisturized even though it was loose.

I was sad about my 1-1.5 inch trim, but after I washed and twisted my hair today with NO breakage, knotting, or tangles I feel great about my much needed trim!

Dang I'm 12 weeks post. That just crept up on me. Sheesh.
ETA: And just because my hair is not shiny, it doesn't mean that my hair is dry. *** you mean with that?

I want to do something creative with my hair that doesn't involve 200 dollars. Thinking about dying it red. Like HOT RED, but I'm afraid it'll hurt my chances to find a new job and I need a new job. Current one is driving me crazy.
I feel like if I want to grow out my hair and have fun with it, I need another strategy. Trying to avoid big chops and expensive salon visits all the time.

I need to buy a new steamer, but they're just so expensive and not in my budget right now.

I used to feel the same way about some of the women on this site. They would BC then have APL hair in 6 months. (I know, I'm exaggerating) But my hair would always stay around SL, even with all of the growth aids and protective styling.
It's not fair!

I love my braidouts and I have my technique down. It's quick and easy and even when I'm feeling lazy I can do it. So why do I keep trying new products/techniques?

I'm looking for new products to use, but I prefer them to be available on the ground in the size I need. I'm looking into Brocato, Graham Webb etc, I know Ulta has these in the liter sizes.

Chick at my job had the nerve to say "You should go to a hair salon...yada yada yada" and I said " I don't trust b***** to put a finger on my head. What I was really thinking was my hair doesn't need to be fixed, your mind does. Who asked you anyway? I say this, if you don't like my hair, f you, I don't care. I like it and I'm all that matters. This is why a lot of us black ladies are walking around hating ourselves and our hair. Because of stupid people and their stupid comments.

"Other people's opinions of me is none of my business"
When will people get that???

Someone is always going to have something to say. I've had some people tell me to stop doing my hair myself since I'm not a professional *rolls eyes* clearly what I'm doing has been working for me and I haven't been to a salon in over 2 years. Now if anyone says ish, I usually just smile and KIM.

Thinking about relaxing this fall... I miss easy rollersetting. I've been stalking the blog of a girl here and she has AMAZING relaxed hair... I also can DIY relax and get a weekly rollerset at a beauty school or something.

My mind is in growth mode only.
My dad was going to cut down the bushes in front of the house, but I asked him if I could do it since I was feeling anxious and thought using some power tools would help.
I got out there and just trimmed the uneven parts, giving it a nice shape, and keeping the tender green new growth.
He comes outside and says I'm not doing it right and sends me in the house while he hacks away at all the bright green leaves, leaving only last year's dark leaves...maybe less. The bushes now are almost brown.
What does this have to do with hair? I need a stylist who shares my philosophy of a trim instead of his.
