Today I was reflecting on how much I've learned in the few months I've been here on the board. For some reason i felt the need to make a confession....
ok. I feel better now that I shared that.
anyone else want to fess up (to some hair ignorance)?
1. We admitted we were powerless over our hair - that our lives had become victim to our hair troubles.
2. Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to healthy hair.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our hair over to the care of God and the ladies of LHCF, BHM and Fotki friends.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of our hair.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs doings done against out hair.
6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character damaging our hair and esteem.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings and torture to our hair.
8. Made a list of all exploits we had committed against our hair, and became willing to make amends and help others when possible.
9. Made direct amends to our hair wherever possible, providing deep conditioning and moisture learning the individual needs of our own hair.
10. Continued to take personal inventory of our regimen and when we went wrong, promptly admitted it and adjusted.
11. Sought though prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the hair he gave us.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others in search of healthy hair and to practice these principles in all our regimens.
I've used oil to flat iron my hair in the past.
90% of the time I did not use a heat protectant. I was not aware of the damage I was causing.
I didn't know that I should be wearing protective styles, adding moisture and sealing with oil.
Touchups every 6 weeks
