Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[OhTall1]

Does anybody here do their hair typically in the morning just before going to work instead of the evening before?

Only in case of a hair emergency. My hair has to look pretty awful for me to get up early and add even a cowash to my morning routine.

I need to figure out what I want to do with my hair. I want to hide it but I spent the better part of this year in braids.
I might wear twist outs for a bit then get some 2 strand twists done.

I’m finally taking my braids out and getting it straightened tomorrow for my birthday weekend. My actual birthday isn’t until next Wednesday but that’s Thanksgiving so I’m celebrating it alllllll this weekend and I’m gonna be looking cute!

I really wanted to redo my hair this evening for a meeting tomorrow morning but I was working a long day today. I just got back home at 9:30 pm. and I'm so tired.

Always. In warm weather I cowash while I'm in the shower and throw it in a bun. This winter I've been doing flat twists and dutch braids, they don't look good at all after being under a scarf all night, so I just redo those before work. It takes maybe 10 minutes, if even.

Do any of you ladies have a recommendation for a stylist in San Jose who works on natural hair? I’m looking for someone to do my demi-permanent color.

I made my appointment for my relaxer, I’ll be going in on Monday. On Saturday, I’m going to deep condition my hair, detangle it, and put it in twist. I’m going to show her this cut and hope that it works out...

Hola Senoritas..

My September 21st length check (on dry dirty hair, not fully combed) AFTER I cut 1 1/2" that night. I wanted my back rolls to show on purpose so I know where I stand. Back rolls are excellent rulers. Just wanted to share. It's almost November 21st so I think I got some length back.

What I've been doing for work. Keeping it simple and lazy.

I’m just finished dc my hair for two hours with a heat cap. My hair needed it, especially with how the temperature dropped and made my hair a little dry. I used TGIN miracle mask. My hair seems to like it. That dry rough patch is no longer dry or rough. Though, I don’t like the smell

I have figured IT OUT.

My hair type is: 80% 4B
My edges are "4C" miniature slinkies.
My nape and crown are full fledged 4A they are SsSsSs shaped.

So I recon. It only took 3.5 years to recognize.

I literally (as of today) realized that maybe I should limit my comb usage by 90%. I was doing my two strand twist ponytails strictly by hand (only used the comb to separate some hair then just used my hands) and I lost virtually no hair until I got to the top and even up there I only lost like 5-10 strands. Now mind y’all I’ve been natural on and off since 2007 so...

Also I have circle, zigzag, and just fluff hairs. Every time I return to being natural I learn something new.

 

[shasha8685]

I tried Qhemet Biologics in my hair when I was relaxed. I was meh about them.

Let's see how they do on my natural hair. I am hoping they are great for moisture retention since my hair does not respond well to cold temps.

I want to try curls by Smith growth products. The elixir and booster. I’ll keep an eye on them to see if it’s a Black Friday sale pending.

I wish more people did this type of hair comedy. There was another one called the Afro whisperer think I found the link

Why are my twists are sticking up like a...you know

I never knew my hair could be so phallic. Just sticking straight up in the air like my name is Coolio. I press them down, then “boing” Okay I’m done being fascinated

 

[KinksAndInk]

I don't think I'll ever get to a point where I feel like I have enough or too much hair and cut it to maintain a certain length. Growing til the end of days.

I've also been thinking about my 2019 hair goals. I think we need a general hair goals/challenge thread. Do we have one? My short attention span makes me forget to check-in after a while but if all my goals are in one thread that could help. Plus the last quarter of 2019 will be extremely busy for me.

Did you hear of Revé Essentials? They had scented stuff too. I think that’s how I started trying out APB, cause I missed them so much.

@ItsMeLilLucky Yes,I have used that,it was a big hit for a while..Hair & body butter was really nice,worked well as a sealant for me/used it to moisturized my skin too.. The pomade was good as well.."The birthday cake scent"smelled like real cake
