Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Anaisin]

My sister asked me for product recommendations with no coconut oil, no shea or mango butter, no avocado oil, olive oil, castor oil, protein or glycerin...I recommended water and prayer I've got nothing else for you sister.

Olive oil and coconut oil are in like every product in existence, salon brands, drugstore, and handmade

 

[Anaisin]

I think I should give away my flat iron. My hair gets straight enough with the blow dryer and vent brush

 

[KinksAndInk]

Lol. She doesn't understand this.

 

[Sharpened]

I watched a bunch of vids demonstrating comb and finger coils. After my ears heal, I will figure out a ratio of gel-to-babassu oil to get a soft hold that will last at least a week or two. Anyone got any ideas?

 

[MzSwift]

I threw out my curling irons back in 2009. Now I'm thinking about purchasing one and using it after airdrying.

I've been hovering in MBL land for so long so I know I need to tweak my regi. I can't seem to get back into wigs like I used to. Now, I'm thinking of wet bunning. I've seen so many women retain that way over the years.

I think that'll also be simple once I have a newborn to contend with...

 

[Anaisin]

I hate when people filter their hair

 

[CodeRed]

She is!

Good luck with that right there

I just use my regular amount for leave-ins and enough gel to coat the hair completely. Once the caste forms you can always crunch to get a softer hold, but if you want it to last a while I recommend leaving it.

I need to focus on being consistent to reach my hair goals by December. I have 2 1/2 months to go. Need to up my water intake, and get back to exercising. I have the ultimate goal of full BSL/grazing MBL on blownout hair by the end of 2017.

If I achieve the above though, I may move that goal post to WL in 2018.

 

[Saludable84]

Smh. Annoying. Are you kidding me?

To the 8th power

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

To the 8th power

Sometimes it seems like I'm in the Twilight Zone because it's sooooooo obvious. I'm leaning towards not posting real soon and getting ghost.

It's a "swipe left" situation with me these days.

 

[victory777]

Received my Sarenzos creamy oils!! The Blue Hawaiian smells like a now and later

 

[princess_z]

I could somewhat justify my product junkism when I had BSL relaxed hair, but I have a TWA now. Why do I feel the need to buy and try all these products ?!

Lord just send me a man who understands I need 827361073 products for my hair + face and that all the bathroom cabinets are mine.

[KinksAndInk]

You should've seen my face lol

 

[Anaisin]

I don't think I can get over this urge to buy. My usual therapy is researching products or making carts over & over. I need to swipe my card.

I think I'm going to buy Briogeo avocado & quinoa cowash

 

[Saludable84]

@PJaye

 

[Sharpened]

I just use my regular amount for leave-ins and enough gel to coat the hair completely. Once the caste forms you can always crunch to get a softer hold, but if you want it to last a while I recommend leaving it.

Unfortunately, I cannot use conditioner, which is why I considered the gel/babassu oil mix. I found a bunch of videos about turning a gel into a cream using oils and/or butters, but the ratios varied so much. I guess I will start with 75% gel mix and see what happens.

 

[Guinan]

So I had a 10am braiding appointment and its now going on 11am and the braider hasnt shown up. I called the braider at 10:12, and she said that another braider was on the way. However still no one has shown up. I'm gonna wait 5more mins and if no one shows up, I'm leaving.

I'm pissed

 

[KinksAndInk]

I just unpacked my hair products and realized that I need a lot of stuff. But I also need to use a lot of stuff. I probably won't do any major hauls until next year. I've pulled out a few products to use up before the end of the year.

 

[vanray]

I think it's great that a lot of people buy non mainstream products but I wish more people here bought on the ground products.

I get you. I think it might be easier to just apply however much oil your hair usually likes first and then layer the gel on top. At least at first.

Was this at the salon that did your color? Regardless, I'm sorry they wasted your time

 

[victory777]

1. My crochet braids may not make 4 weeks, may have 1 week left on them
2. Sarenzo's Creamy oils applied after using the Salux cloth makes my skin feel like butta

Me too.
