2010 Hide Your Hair Challenge! (July 31st - Dec 31st)

Ladies... I so sorry.. I have FAILED this challenge.. my hair is no longer hidden. I broke. :-( Although i have failed this challenge I will still continue protecting styling.
 
I need to stay out of these other threads, they are rediculous and tactless!

Ladies if you see me in a thread that I don't be long please bring me back to my senses :spank: Thanks
 
WTH is going on with those other threads??? I haven't been gone that long and I'm seeing some total nonsense.
 
Hey ladies checking in, I'm in the process of redoing my braids..I'm taking them down now and redoing them on at a time.
 
Hey ppl,
I am done doing my braids they look good for my first time :). I used a lot of youtube and these came out better. I will post picture as soon as i take one. How are you guys doing?
 
I'm under the dryer know. I DC my week old twist overnight, rinsed it out, and cowashed with HE Totally Twisted Condish. I moisturized them with Darcy's leave in conditioner (juicy peach hmmm smells so good) and sealed with my oil mix. I put my twist on perm rods and sprayed my homemade leave in spray and aphogee green tea spray. Gotta get out of here in 45 minutes let me go......... hopefully this will come out nice like I've done before:crossfingers:.
 
Hey Ladies I will be going to my local BSS to check out some wigs for the 1st time in my life. I have no clue how to pick them out so i hope there is someone knowledgable about them there. How did you choose what is best for your face structure???
 
I purchased the Mommy wig last week and I'll trying her out today I'm excited. I've never had hair that short so I can't wait to seee how I look.
 
arm445, I got the Mommy last month as well. I wanna see it on you, I don't think Vanessa is coming off anytime soon.

Winona, you first start out either trying it on. Or getting something that will be similar to what you wear now. Stick to a color close to your own until your ready to venture off into color :)

Most of all Winona have fun!
 
Thanks JJ. I am natural so I dont believe I will find anything that looks like my 4b/4a hair:) But I will start with colors similar to mine. Maybe a short do that I can wear in uniform:)

@Nikki: There's been a lot of weave-bashing lately...

and the funny thing is that most of the people bashing are either disrespectful newbies that don't know any better or naturals who transitioned with weaves themselves and now are acting holier than thou. I mean come on now...

that's okay that is why I said how about going to a BSS and trying some on. BUT just to let you know Yes there are Natural Wigs hair styles I was Eyeing one in particular at teh BSS near me It was by "IT TRESSES" and it was beautiful.

You might just go try some on, braid your hair down, and buy a pack of wig caps *have to have these for sanitary purposes, and go ahead adn try them on.

Styles you think your face would look nice in. Or similar styles you've worn before. :) Make sure to post pics of your choices and you in it :D
 
Morning Ladies!

I hope everyone thoroughly enjoyed their weekend.:grin:

I've been lazy all weekend, and I'm continuing with the laziness today. :yawn: I'm sporting a simple curly puff. I'm really going to hate it when the weather gets cooler because I won't be able to do my wash n' gos and curly puffs.:nono:

I have some major catching up to do! Off to read the thread.

Ms_CoCo37 - I had the crochet braids once in the spring and I'm proud to say I did them myself. This comes from someone who had never cornrowed at all before this experience. I could not have worn the cornrows out but since the installed hair was covering the braids, no one could tell. So it only cost me $12 for the 2 packs of hair and I only used 1.5 bags where I cut the hair in half. I took them out after 3 weeks due to boredom but it would have lasted longer and looked nice.

Glad that you are back with us; your summaries, energy, and pictures are great and were missed.

Now see! You're gonna make me make an attempt at crochet braiding!:grin: I already told DD that I wanted to test something out on her. Poor baby she was like :perplexed

I would like to give it a try this weekend. If I do, I'll definitely post pix.

How did you make out?:grin:

*sigh* I feel much better now. Cowashed today and idk if it's just psychological or not, but that did me a world of good. Hopefully next week won't be as hectic and I can dedicate more time to my cowashes. I don't think I can ever stick to a super low manipulation regimen. I feel crazy not cowashing twice a week lol
Click to expand...

I am the same exact way. It bugs me to no end when I can't do a couple of cowashes a week. I don't know what I'm going to do when the winter months come along. I'm not trying to get sick. :nono:

I thought I might have been the only grown up watching CR2. I'm just a big kid anyway. :grin:

I had the BEST hair dream ever!!! I dreamt that I took my install out (not this one but the next) and my hair was APL! It was so thick and lush and alas...I woke up to a silk bonnet instead lol

:lachen: I've had the same dream! Only I dreamed that I took my hair down and it was to my tailbone. I was trying to figure out how in the world did I get all of this hair. Then I woke up to reality...:nono::lachen:

Good Morning Ladies,

I have been wearing a curly puff for about a week & 1/2 or so, but now I am back under a half wig. I shampoo'd, did a protein treatment and deep conditioning last night. Put my hair in 6 braids and pinned them down.

I will probably have my hair under until halloween or so. I need to order some more half wigs, I am wearing Ruth/Rush right now.
 
i put my mt mix on last night and it felt great to be back after having left it ot of my reggie for a couple of weeks for the perm.

although now, i must agree with the cowashing thing becuase i seriously loved cowashing every day.

maybe if i go back to detangling only once a week on wash day and cowashing 3-5 days a week with baggy bunning, i can still do a low manipulation reggie.

would you ladies consider that low enough manipulation?
