Things you WON'T do to your hair in 2010

[BostonMaria]

3) I won't be so quick to buy new hair products Just pray my strength on this one

 

[Stormy]

I will not run to the heat tools when I get more length, I am not about to lose all my hard work.

Ditto! I made that mistake for the first and last time.

 

[Poohbear]

I am seriously thinking about avoiding heat. Yesterday morning, I got about an inch or so trimmed off my hair. I had a bunch of splits on my hair, and still have some on some strands. I believe these splits came from blowdrying and flat-ironing. And since I still have a few splits, I'm going to baby my hair with oil and conditioner.

 

[westNDNbeauty]

I won't continue to fantacize about coloring my hair.

 

[cutiebe2]

I won't play with it...I have developed this habit and its not good...especially for my edges

 

[The Princess]

I will not buy any new products.
I will jump on any bandwagon for new products.
I will not do anything drastic to my hair cause im bored.
I will not cut my hair.

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

I will not:
- skip dc'ing
- rip through hair when detangling
- relax, no matter what
- go more than two weeks without washing ♥

 

[teacherjess]

I will NOT get trims every time I see the stylist, only when I feel its needed
I will not get a relaxer any more than 3 times in 2010
I will not fall of the haircare wagon
I will not slack on my vitamins (MSM, Dollar Gen. Hair, Skin & Nails, Biotin)
I will not wear hair out every day, but protective style the year away!
I will not jump on bandwagons, but stick with what works for me
I will not go back to instant conditioners- NEVER

 

[brebre928]

As much as I wanna go blonde...I won't. NO DYE..lol

 

[PPGbubbles]

-I will not CUT my hair!!!! S&Ds only 2010 is all about growth no cuts till I reach my goal length of full BSL

 

[charmtreese]

1. I won't stretch pass 16 weeks
2. I won't jump on any bandwagons.
3. I won't rollerset in the same direction every week

 

[orchidgirl]

I won't skip my monthly dusting..I hope that will make a difference this year. lol. Thanks for all yall post..it keep me going through all my mistakes.

 

[Eisani]

No wash-n-gos. They create to many tangles and single strand knots.
No henna. I had no issues with it, just that the benefits for me aren't worth the mess or time.

I was thinking about this the other day. I love the look, but the tangles are getting a little ridiculous.

I will not be buying any new products apart from staple replenishments next year .

Good for you! I thought about cutting it down to one product line, but I need to take baby steps first lol.

This I def. need to instate cuz for some reason my hair still hasn't felt the recession because i buy so much for it!!

Who are you tellin?? The only thing that has been recession proof is my PJ stash!

I will not get lazy with my vitamins. Makes a big difference when I take them religiously.

I will not do things half azzed...either do it right or don't do it at all.

YES to the bold. I got so lazy, I didn't even wanna heat up my oils for a prepoo . Pitiful.

I will not keep switching products.
I will not use heat more than 2x in the year.
I will not be rough w/my hair.
I will not neglect moisturizing my hair.

I get kind of rough too, especially if I'm frustrated while detangling. In my mind I'm like *** it, I got hair

Stay Natural In 2010! It is just so hard for me, I end up with alot of regrets after relaxing and wasted time and growth! Natural is the better for me and my hair and scalp. Do they have a Relaxer Rehab? LOL!!!! or an INTERVENTION? LOL!!

Clearly I've been out of the loop! I haven't seen u post in forever and didn't know you had relaxed! How've you been?

Thanks for the moral support BM

I will not:
- skip dc'ing
- rip through hair when detangling
- relax, no matter what
- go more than two weeks without washing ♥

Guilty. I get frustrated and anxious to get it over with and get a little careless sometimes. Another thing I won't be doing is going more than two days between detangling sessions. I'm sorry but low/no manipulation is NOT for me!

 

[azuquita_morena]

I won't leave my hair out as much as I did this year. I want to do more protective styling.

 

[MizzCoco]

I WILL NOT shampoo my hair so much...I just realized that my hair does not like to be squeaky clean every time I wash it. I can get away with alternating cowashes and shampoo every week and still have a good rollerset. I really dont know what took me so long to figure this out.
And I WILL NOT comb my hair except on wash days. I can finger-comb during the week. I used to comb thru my hair several times a day, just because I couldnt stand a few tangles. Very sad, and totally unnecessary
So maybe I'll retain more hair in 2010 by just eliminating these 2 things.

 

[shasha8685]

I will not wear my hair out as often....got to up the protective styling ante.

I will not use as much heat....my hair is longer now, I don't need to use heat as much as I did before.....

 

[OneInAMillion]

• I won't relax (although I think about it constantly)
• I won't color (I need to remember that dye will break my fine strands off!)
• I won't slack on my progress pictures
• I won't give up on being natural in general. I just need to take time with my hair and I can reach MBL in 2010. So close!

Your hair is gorgeous in your siggy and I see my hubby is your avatar....we may have to have a meeting if our man is cheating on us

Oh em gee, I was absolutely terrible @ taking pics this year! I think I took less than 10 all year . I used to keep a pretty good visual journal, I need to get back on that. I haven't updated Fotki or anywhere else for that matter in soooo long!

 

[BostonMaria]

OK fine I'll pray for you then LOL j/k

What I won't do in 2010 is let anybody cut my hair. As much as it breaks my heart, I promise not to buy any conditioners until the one bottle that I have at home is gone. I promised myself that if and when I do place an order online I will give myself a budget.

Last but not least, no bandwagons next year. Don't care if bug spray can claim to give me 2 inches of hair a month. Ain't doing it!

Haha yeah I completely fell of this year, and I realize that's why I think my hair isn't growing--I'm not taking the pictures to see the length anymore.

If anything, update for me, I always like looking at your updates

[aquajoyice]

1) I will always take time when detangling my hair and if I dont have the patience to deal with it I wont do it.

2) I will make sure to stay on top of getting my ends trimmed and not delay the inevitable. erplexed

3) Always make time for at least 1 DC a week no matter what.

4) Get out of my bun rut. I've become too protective over my hair I barely take it out of a bun M-F.

5)Remebering to have fun with my hair

I won't be a product junkie.
I won't forget the basics.
I won't set unrealistic expectations.
I won't waste any more time trying to get the perfect type 3 something curls.
I won't loathe my naturally nappy hair any longer.

 

[hair4romheaven]

[Petite One]

I WON'T dye over henna.
I WON'T let anyone elses hands in my hair but my own.
I WON'T buy products on a whim just because so and so raved over it and we ain't even close to being hair twins.

 

[KynniB]

- i will not get impatient and rip through it with a comb when detangling.

 

[Shay72]

I will not BC and will continue with my long transition.
I will not let my hair suffer because I'm afraid of using the denman brush.
I will not let detangling and ssk deter me from going natural.
