JJamiah you aint never lied about that TT, when I said I didnt lose any hair (NOT ALOT ANYWAYS) after my wash and detangle session you wont believe me. So imma post a pic....Oh course I lost lots of hair before the wash cause the braids had been up for a month but it handle this dry and semi wet hair well. Im going to Sallys again tomorrow or sometimes this week to get me another just so it can be around.

I'm still trying to learn to braid but that won't be happening any time soon :| I did 6 rows of piggyback braids that were mentioned in another thread but those were to thick, i don't think it's possible for me to make them any smaller :(

my brother told me i should just cut my hair because the amount that i put into it and how frustrated i get is just stupid. So frustrating.

anyway i'm still bunning.

Good morning!

I've been completely MIA for the last couple of weeks only popping in for a second here and there. I hope everyone is doing well. I don't have much to report. I'm back in a bun today...but I wanted to share my little DC concoction that I came up with for DD and myself.

I combined the following in a blender:

4 over ripe avocados (I couldn't bring myself to through them out)
Honey
Aloe Vera juice
Olive oil
Almond oil
Peppermint oil
Coconut conditioner (some cheap brand I can't seem to recall this morning)

I set the blender to "smoothie" mode and let it do its thing. Once that was done, I slathered it on our freshly washed hair and got under the steamer for 45 minutes each. After that we did a rinse, and I proceeded to blow out and straighten DD's hair with my Instyler, and I threw my hair back in a bun.

Both of us have the softest hair! I'm definitely going to have to use this little treatment again.:yep::lick:

Chas you went and didn't get it :naughty:

:orders::fishslap::poke::poke::poke::poke::poke:

:giveup:

Okay Chas I give up!

Honestly this is a great tool but if you are too Scurrry Cat to get it then fine :giggle: :poke: :poke:

Make sure next time you go you just drop it in your basket bymistake :giggle:
 
I have a question for all the wig wearers that workout - how are you wearing your hair to the gym? I didnt wanna go to the gym looking like a prisoner with my very jacked up cornrows so i wear my wig. The only problem is that its super hot. I also just started the Insanity workout program with Shaun T. I know this has nothing to do with hair, but I'm looking for a workout partner. :lol:

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm going to try to go this weekend and "drop it in my basket by mistake." I'm sure that will work :yep: :giggle:
 
Morning,

Still bunning. I think I'm going to have to cut a few inches off of my hair. I don't like the way my ends are looking, and I've found a couple of little broken areas. Ugh. I'm just not feeling it this month. I'm in one of those cut it all off and start all over moods.
 
5 days before my breakdown.
What a Long day it will be!

If my Indigo Comes I might try the box henna before the Lush so My grays can take a hike.
 
Taking a short break from my wigs. Hiding my hair in twists that are pulled into a ponytail and set on perm rods. This ponytail is bouncing all over the place :)

Rossy2010 I am excited to see your progress like a kid on christmas day! LOL

I know it is a pain, but just a little longer and take a break.

I take a break every 3 months so I don't feel overwhelmed with too much free time or too much under cover time. :)

I'm going to keep an open mind and give it a good try. I had been in a bun for a few days and when I took my hair down last night there were tangles everywhere. I was wishing I had gone ahead and purchased the TT :ohwell:
 
^^^ U got that Chas

I am under the steamer and steaming nothing in but the oils I had on my head already. I just want to get some moisture into my hair it was feeling dry. I hope I get a good feeling afterwards will let you ladies know. :)
 
Checking in...It's been a while, but I had nothing new to report until now, I have my hair done in some senegease (sp) twist. This is the first time I've had this style installed and I'm not too sure how much I like it. I feel like my stylist could have done a better job.

Steaming on dry hair with nada is wonderful; I sprayed it with Braid Spray when I did the double dose and it was awesome and amazing.

My hair feels so soft and moist.

Thanks, I sure hope so.

I have been wondering what the heck is going on with my hair lately. It just looks so dull but it's not dry at all. I wonder if my heavy cone leave-in is causing it. I'm going to try a hot oil treatment this weekend and see if that helps. I really should invest in a steamer :ohwell:

The women at my local wig store charge 5.00 to braid hair. I only found out one day when I was in there trying on a few wigs I was researching and I had 6 big flat twists in my hair, I was complaing that I would have to braid my hair in smaller braids for the wig to look right on me when the woman helping me informed me that they braid there for 5.00.
Not sure if they do this everywhere but it can't hurt to ask if they do. HTH

STEAMERS ARE WONDERFUL :yep:

I had to do something my hair felt like it was definitely getting very dry even though I moisturized. I did a double but used braid spray when I went under the second time.

Rossy I won't be hip for a while :giggle:

Your reveal now is going to be awesome :-)

especially teasing us with that last reveal :woohoo:
 
Fingers crossed :). A huge thanks to you @JJamiah. I would be lost if it wasnt for you.
18 weeks it is and i bet you will be grazing HL. Your hair grows like a weed :yep::yep:
