I just came in to say: I LOVE WASHING MY HAIR IN TWISTS...that is all LOL

For real, I have always taken my hair out of my twists to shampoo, then re-did them. I am going on a work trip today and I didn't have time to figure out what to do with my hair, but I knew I needed a wash and condition. So I did it and I loved it! I am letting my hair dry in a ponytail to get to stretch a little, here's a pic:

Have a good weekend ladies!
LOL itsjusthair88! :lol: Your hair is looking good in these twists ;)
 
Celies are done! Just shampooed, conditioned, apply leave in and took each braid down, detangled, applied SM deep masque, and rebraided.
 
Update Pic :-) I went to the salon and the lady gave me a HARD press with a flatiron and some grease lol. It doesn't look any longer than when I pressed it tho, just a lot more thin and flat, and you all were rite :) I'm beginning to hit apl.... still in the challenge. Full apl here I come :yay:

Found the hair dye that I want to try out next time. I just need to do more research on how it is on natural hair. Don't need any damage!

Coconut butter prepoo- can you give a review. Sounds good.
 
i don't feel like roller setting my hair. i wanna be bad and blow dry. maybe i can go to Fantastic Sam just so the can roll it for me. i just need someone to roll it. i'll do everything else. but i'm scared to have someone in my hair right now. i want to wait until next year or so.

Hi ladies,
I'm pre-pooing with hempseed, grapeseed, and my ayurvedic oil blend. I applied Aussie Moist deep conditioner to dry hair and wearing a plastic cap for an hour. Later on I will wash/DC and do a bantu knot set so I can rock a bantu knot out for a few days.
 
Did a double protein treatment, and my hair quit breaking. My natural hair is a protein fein, it is really hard to get enough. I think I am going to go on a high protein hair diet for the summer. Maybe all the twisting is depleting my protein? I am going to spritz with SM mix daily until it runs out then I will mix up shima's spritz. Once a week, I am going to dc with a fortifier or reconstructor, then follow with a moisture dc before I retwist. Thinking I will add a bi-monthly hot mustard oil. Really trying to keep all the hair I grow this summer.

Looking forward to my next mini trim at the end of the month. I think these mini trims are going to get me to the healthy thick hair I want.
 
Treating my ends to Keracare Overnight Mz Tx tonight. Will then be doing an overnight ceramide oil pre-poo before a DC with heat in the am, then poo, then Mirpur Soy Protein Tx, then a rinse out con with castor oil and avocado oil.



Seamonster - sounds like you're making some great plans for the summer!
