I was at my sister's house this morning to pick up my niece. First off, my niece has 4b/4c ultra thick hair. Why on Earth did I walk in to my sister using a wig brush to try to "get the tangles out." :mad::mad::mad: I was so heated. Not only was my tall, 11 year old niece crying her eyes out in the chair but there was hair all over the floor. I immediately snatched the brush out sister's hand and almost punched her in the face. I ended up detangling dear niece hair without fuss with a wide tooth comb. I am still heated about it and how ignorant my sister is about her baby's hair.

She just couldn't understand why you couldn't use a brush to detangle 4b/4c hair.:mad::mad::mad:

Was I wrong to step in?
 
I finally decided to cut my hair, I'm going to get a long bob. Short enough to wear down without it getting in the way, and long enough to do updos. *sorry about the size of the photo*

I am the queen of reviving and old blowout I swear! Back to bouncing and behaving!

The urge to perm my edges is strong, but I will resist and flat iron instead. I wish that I could go back and forth between relaxed and natural.

I know there's supposed to be a few products out there that allow for curly to straight. They can be off-putting though, cuz they're marketed as "texture manageability systems". I think I saw one by African Pride & there's one by Beautiful Textures, I think it's called.
 
After I take my crochet braids out I want to reuse the hair for 2 strand twists. But I also want to wear it in a twist out. I love that this hair has options.
 
I tried coconut milk in my henna, I think I like Greek yogurt even better! Must be the additional protein.

Wrong??? You HELPED. I just hope at some point you can help her to understand how to handle you niece's hair.
 
When going out for a shampoo run goes wrong...

Is it okay to be complimented on dirty hair?

I feel like I would have been better off wearing a bonnet. (Because he was trying to sell me something and was probably just being nice. I feel so ashamed.)
 
Mini braids update:

So I'm done with 5 sections already. I had 4 large sections and split them in 2 so 8 in total. So basically I've done more than half of my head in only 1 hour & 50 minutes.

Taking a break but when I start back it should only take me about 1 hr & a half to finish. So about 4 hours to complete my whole head. No idea why this used to take me 6-8+ hours & my hair was shorter then :/


Eta: So it took me 3 hours total doing the actual braiding. Prepping before the braiding took about 1 hr 30 min

At these times I'm thankful for having low-medium density hair

Really thinking about cutting down to a brush cut. Love the feeling of washing from my head to toes in the summer!!
 
I bought some dove shampoo and conditioner.
It's been raining all day, and my hair didn't poof out on me!
 
Kinky Curly Curling Custard is my new fave. I like it more than Camille Rose Curl Maker (which I think is on the sticky side).

I finally figured out my hair is a mix of 4a/4b. Ever since February, I've been trying to figure out my hair type.

Really? I'll give that a try next when my Curl Maker is finished.
Do you use it for twist outs?

I use it for wash and go's at the moment. I'm waiting until my hair is longer to try it for twist outs.
