Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[LadyRaider]

Clorox and hair?
I had hair and soap scum in the tub after getting out of the shower. I poured in a little with some water and let it sit in the tub over night. This morning the water is clear, the soap scum is gone and the hair is gone.
Gone.

Um. Bleach dissolves hair?
Dang!

I want to stop by the salon and get my hair washed, blowdried and flat iron but I don't want any set backs and I know i'll only wear my hair out for maybe a day or two (usually while my wigs are airdrying). so why waste the money.

Plus they are always trying to "trim" my hair

To whomever sets prices at my local Walgreens:
It's not a good idea to charge $22USD for 8oz of KCCC. Your competitor Whole Foods around the corner sells 16oz for $28USD

Not sure if anyone mentioned SheaMoisture's new line of professional products sold by Sally's : http://www.sallybeauty.com/NEW-Shea...dCat-SheaMoistureProfessional,default,sc.html. I'm interested in trying the Curl Memory Leave-In.

I saw that the other day... I've been trying to search this forum to see if anyone has tried it... They had buy one get one free and now it's buy 2 get one free... thinking about trying it.

Darn. Wish I caught the BOGO. Not sure I want three.

Yeah I think I'm going to wait... All I want is the conditioner.

There's nothing worse than being away from home and not being able to find your favorite products. I can't wait to get back to my hometown so I can stock up.

I need to modify my technique for my bun. People with hair just as thick as mine or thicker (i.e. naturals) manage to get their hair slicker than I have been able to lately.

@SuchaLady I can't get my hair sleek to save my life unless I used a lot of heat, so at this point it looks like a bush lol.

at a bush. Eco styler has been okay to me. It does what it's supposed to but lately I've been getting hair that is smooth but looks as if it's been pumped with air or something

Ampro works but I think I will try Gorilla Snot. Apparently it works really well.

I bought a pack of scrunchies that look like pantyhose. I love these things but I feel like I could have saved myself $1.23 and made them myself.

@SuchaLady Yeah I'm 6 months post and DH touched my hair and was like " Wow your hair is thick and bushy." I side eyed him and laughed

I guess I'll have to look into trying other gels and see if they can work a miracle.

 

[YaniraNaturally]

Protein treatment is finally in. Hallelujah!

 

[BostonMaria]

Seriously who the heck buys this stuff and hopes it will work? LOL

 

[SuchaLady]

Going to run to the store and grab some Gorilla Snot rofl. I'll experiment after I wash this press out.

I like that CurlMart sends samples, but I'm confused since they only sell one of the three products they sent me.

How long was we back? I feel so lost. I checked yesterday. I see we don't have the app anymore. I am so not use to being on the actual site. I can count on one hand how many times I have signed in on the regular site since I have been here. I don't know where my subscribed to threads are

I hate it when manufacturers stick protein in their shampoos and cleansing conditioners.

Your subscribed threads are all under watched threads. Check out some of the threads on the update they explain a lot of the new features. It's all pretty cool. I was pro app until I really started working my way through the new features. This is a much better experience. I've attached a picture to to show you where to look for watched threads.

I need some yogurt and do not feel like venturing out of bed to get it.

Before finding this board, I would have bought that stuff with the quickness. Mink oil? It's a done deal.

I cant stand a petty business owner. Tangles and Beyond acts straight up childish sometimes.

These drops are annoying and I dont see how it seems good business practices to have customers place multiple orders because your janky site is always first come first served down AND then say , its not my fault if you buy more than once so dont email me asking me to combine an order.

I simply hit unfollow. I dont have time to support your shea butter dreams of grandeur. * eyeroll*

Not saying I do but..........

What's the appropriate response when someone says "wow, your hair is long" ? It's not a compliment so thanks isn't right. I usually just end up muttering "yeah"

"Think so?" or "Is that right."

"okay thanks for letting me know"

Hmm sheamoisture finally has larger sizes available on their website. At least when I eventually get around to ordering the purification masque I won't feel as annoyed.

It's been about 5 weeks since I started using Komaza Care products almost exclusively (~ 80/20). This included upping my strong protein from once a month to about 3 times per month (about every 10 days; still using the Komaza Care protein treatment). I've definitely seen a difference. Before, I could look at my hair at any given time and find splits/bubbles on 50% of the strands, even if it I had just trimmed a week before. Now, I can still find splits/bubbles, but it's more like 5-10% of my strands, which means that I can just search and destroy instead of having to constantly do trims.
I'm really pleased. I've upped my protein in the past with other products without significant results, so I know that it's not JUST the protein.

I'm going to continue with my plan to use Komaza Care until June and then reassess. By then, I should definitely know if this is just a fluke or if I've found the right regimen for my hair.

Packing up yet another box of products to give away. I gotta stick to what I know and pass up these sales.
