Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[MileHighDiva]

Would it be weird to buy a dryer chair (i.e. like they have in salons) for my house?

No, I've been contemplating ordering one from LCL Beauty/SalonsRus. spacetygrss where have you been looking?

I don't think it's weird. But we are on a hair board. I would get one if I could figure out a spot for it, but I would want the steamer instead of the dryer.

MileHighDiva:

I've only looked at SalonsRus and Buyritebeauty so far.

I think that it would be so much more comfy to have a real dryer chair. Decisions. Decisions.

I PSd 95% of the time during the awkward stage to keep from cutting or relaxing. Maybe you could find a PS to get you through? It should only be for about 6 months to a year.

Yeah, I'm definitely going to protective style. I've been contemplating relaxing for a month now and I'm almost ok with it. I know I'll miss my curls and regret though. Just have to figure out what protective style to do. Glad to see I'm not the only who thought up this crazy idea.

Thanks!

I cowashed tonight and realized that I have officially grown out of my TWA or rather I have reached the awkward stage I couldn't believe I had some actual hang time while I was in the shower.

When it dries though, I'll be right back to TWA.

Watching YouTube videos thinking some of these ladies could use a trim.

I am so about to simplify my wash day routine this year, no matter what.

I think the same thing a lot. And don't even get me started on the ones holding on to 5 raggedy strands of hair to claim waist length. Smh

Need to finish my stash list but I'm too lazy.

Studying for my test tomorrow. It seems easy. I can admit, a lot of the stuff I'm learning, I learned on here!

 

[ItsMeLilLucky]

Lilmama1011 Shake a Leg (I will not say that B word. I'm speaking life). You will whip that test's hind parts! Yass for learning stuff on LHCF! I learned more than I ever did IRL on here.

My dandruff crazy I was picking it last night and man my scalp was burning after think to get a different shampoo. It's only my leave out too so my next weave I'll try to get a full head weave.

Yeah I'm going to have bald spots at the top of my head cause I was just peeling and peeling. I used to it tho every year I have a bald spot to cover up.

I am very proud of myself today. *head nod*

I put back a bottle of conditioner on the shelf when I was at the store today. I am not buying any more conditioner until I cut my stash in half.

I don't know what I did to my neck but it hurts. Couldn't even shake and fluff my hair the way I needed to.

 

[naija24]

Moisture overload....describe what it looks like to me.

I bought OGX coconut water shampoo and conditioner. I just washed my hair and my strands aren't falling out of my head but the few strands that naturally come out during shampooing are stretchy. Like really stretchy. Like I can pull it an inch apart before it snaps. My hair before washing it was normal.

Should I be freaking out??

naija24 Sounds like you need a protein treatment asapily.

I am broke until next Thursday. I have Paul Mitchell super skinny serum. Coconut oil. Cantu Shea butter.....that's it. Any of those help with protein?

 

[naija24]

Just used my super skinny balm and blew out my hair. It's much less stretchy than before which is a relief. But honestly my hair never felt so hydrated. I'm gonna buy aphogee keratin and green tea reconstructor tomorrow. That should help

 

[ItsMeLilLucky]

^^^sounds like a plan.

 

[naija24]

My hair may not be as laid as when I pay someone to do it but wow. My hair is so thick and full. Idk what salons so that make your hair seem like it has 50% less volume. Yay DIY!!!

I cant wait until the end of the month. Im going to buy a kilo of rhassoul. Then all I need to do is stock up on Xtreme Wet line gel for when I'm not protective styling.

Regimen is super easy. Wash every 3 days, making sure I deep condition, sleep in bonnet.

When protective styling, only go 6 to 8 weeks at a time, oil scalp, and or vinegar rinse daily.

 

[KinksAndInk]

Going back to a regimen of grease and water. Raiding the closet for a jar of royal crown or blue magic in the morning. Then it's biweekly washes, scalp greasing and some low manipulation styling. Wish I could rock 5 ponytails again lol. I miss my waist length hair. I hate that my mom even let me start "taking care of it" on my own. I f'd it all up

I'm at bed bath & beyond and they have jessicurl, mop top, Camille rose, Alikay naturals, Oyin, and KBB products amongst others. Nice!

 

[ItsMeLilLucky]

I'm ready to wash my hair, but I wanna do it with my new hair products that are being shipped. Anybody else put off wash day because they want to use their new goodies?

 

[Tonto]

Life of a person with a long back... can I get already to the part where my hair caresses my waist? smh
