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

:woohoo: 1/2 inch until I can claim MBL people :D Holla :woohoo: I just checked :D No pics I combed it measured it and pulled that bad baby!
 
NikkiQ - Redken! I have been a huge Redken girl for most of my life because I thought it made my hair feel good, and to be fair, I didn't realize it wasn't until I shampooed with it after switching to no-nsulfate/organic shampoo and realized how dry it was making my hair.
JJamiah - Congrats!
 
I just wanted to post some pics of my homemade half wig which I will be wearing! I just finished it :)

Hey, ladies!
I am bowing out of all of my challenges, as I am afraid I am becoming too obsessive with my hair and LHCF, and am not spending the time I should be on my schoolwork. I will probably jump back on challenges this summer, but for now, I am dropping them.
I will still be around, so please don't forget about me! And I plan to post updates every December, April, and August on my blog.
Love you guys and am happy I got to know many of you, especially through this thread.
HHG!
 
Hi all,
I am still going strong in this challenge! I will be re-applying my light yaki remy full lace wig today and I am going on week 4 of my self braid install. I agree with sulfate free shampoos, they really make a difference in moisture retention.

Hate to see you go babyface davis, but your reason is ABSOLUTELY understandable. you're working hard towards your dream and need as little distraction as possible. we'll be here cheering you on-both with your studies and your HHJ. HL here you come! :bighug:
 
Okay we aren't in APRIL so this is no APRIL fools trick. WHY R YOU LEAVING US? Just take a break no leave Davis :(

Just set maybe an hour a day or like I am doing lately before I take the kids to school and a little during the evening after all is said and done.

Morning Ladies!

Hope everyone had a great weekend! I've been dealing with some technical difficulties with my iPhone. Fun times indeed.:look:

JJamiah, yesterday the PJ in me struck again. I had the nerve to set foot up in Sally Beauty Supply and they had the nerve to have a sale on the Argan oil products...the very nerve. Suffice it to say, I purchased the restorative mask and an Argan oil...and of course I got a second bottle of the Argan oil for free. WOO HOO! They also had a sale on the Carefree Curl Gold juice (16oz bottle for $3.99), and you KNOW I couldn't pass that up.

When I got home, I washed my hair with the Kinky Kurly Clarifying shampoo. Then I followed that up with two washes with the Hair One, followed by the Argan oil restorative mask and 30 minutes under the steamer. O-M-G...I'm in love!:love: My hair felt sooooo good! Then I rubbed some of the Argan oil for measure.:lick: This will definitely become one of my staples.

This morning, I'm sporting a sloppy southerntease bun. It's rainy outside and I don't care one bit.
 
Hope you ladies have a great week!!

I agree LHCF can become addicting. I too agree I need to scale back on my usage but I won't leave totally, however, I'm not a student...I remember those student days. If you spread yourself thin, schoolwork will suffer and we can't have that -- (((hugs))) -- cya around. Will miss ya!
 
Ms_CoCo37 I knew it. I knew you'd cave in to some form of conditioner LOL.

Tomorrow or Wednesday I'll be steaming in my Motions CPR and then using nexxus. I should take a salon day, but Nah, I am getting my cousin to braid it up for me. It is time. I don't feel like catering to it right now anywho.

It is raining here as well. All the kids were happy to get to wear their rain coats LOL.
 
The PJ in me is itching to show it's head very soon. I haven't bought any products in month or so and I need a good protein treatment for my hair before I get braided back up. Either Aphogee or Motions CPR. I've used Motions before and my hair faired out really well. Aphogee...never tried it. So since I'm off today and tomorrow, I'll make my way over to Sally's and see what they have.
 
I am going to keep Vanessa in the loop; I am really wanting to try Blair, I want a shorter hair style again. Maybe even Elise again.
 
My commission stamp just came in, I am so excited. I have to write a professional cover letter to introduce myself to the companies :D so that I can start getting some loans. :)

I don't have a working printer right now so that sucks. :) but that too shall come. :D

I need to figure out my product stash -- I really need to either toss out pre-LHCF prods or figure out how to use them...and I need to use up the post-LHCF prods. I need to dwindle this stash down before I go buying more and more stuff. Now that I'm hooked on ceramides, that's more to buy.
 
Hi, everyone!
I am NOT leaving LHCF by any means! I owe almost all of my success to the board. I am just dropping out of my challenges so I won't be so tempted to stay on here all day.
I still am peeking in on you guys every now and then, and you will see me posting or responding to threads every now and then, but I just need to focus! I'll still be around!
Love you guys! :D

At the library right now with the four children all of us on a computer.
All I am thinking about is a CONDITIONER on my hair.
 
JJ must have cameras in my bathroom cabinet b/c I grabbed a new bottle of conditioner to cowash with today. spooky *hums theme to Twilight Zone*
 
Still hanging...taking out my braids next week. I think I will give my hair a rest - maybe I'll go get a wig. If not, it's a bun until I get rebraided in November.
