APL 2012 Challenge

[NikkiQ]

I think I'm going to dye the hair next weekend. Gives me a little time to let the color do it's thing and maybe fade a tad before heading home. Gonna bring some wigs with me, but I may not even wear them lol

With my mins back in I feel like I'm back on track plus I trimmed as well yesterday so now I have to hide my scissors till Dec once I start cutting its very hard to stop

something about trigga seems to be irritating my skin...maybe its the cayenne pepper

I thought i was the only one. i used it for 1 week while ghing and something is off about that thing....when i took my hair down omg i shed like crazy which i don't do unless its a take down of 2 months or so but something in the Trigger have me itching badly and making my scalp feel like its on fire.... i gave that thing a break until further notice

Its sad :-( did u get a scented one? I got pound cake. The More I think about it might not want to try it anymore. My face feels so much better since I stopped using it.

i am going to baby my ends and try not to dust until my next touch up. that will be in Sept or Oct. i need to wash my hair today. i have been only washing once a week for a couple of weeks now and i need to get back on track. i am going to get my DD some castor oil for her ends to see if that will prevent them from drying out on her.

@NikkiQ Prepoo-Reconstructor-DC-rollerset, this keeps the knots and tangles at bay

@TheNDofUO I like your plan!! How often will you touch up?? Im the opposite ORS bonelaxes my hair so im looking for a milder relaxer to texlax with atm

@livinthevida whoa look at those curls and I do see the thickness!!

LOL @Fyne after starting my HHJ for 6 months I am thinking my hair literally grows thicker left to right then grows downward. I've read hair grows in phases but WOW! now I have proof

 

[livinthevida]

Idk what to do with these things!

jprayze these look great! especially how they are set to the side! How about a cute hair accessory to keep your hair pinned to the side?

 

[livinthevida]

Just got back from running around everywhere. Hair is still soft and moisturized after being under a wig all day.

PS-I bought a red box dye. I'm doing it some time in the next few weeks. Can't wait til I get home lol

@NikkiQ we LOVE it when you wear your hair RED!!! what color are you using? is it a similar red applied earlier?

 

[livinthevida]

Beautiful hair and style LovelyBwonderful! Love the dress and matching toe color too!

Nice soft waves BEAUTYU2U!

Your hair looks so healthy itsjusthair88!

LOL Beautifulwildflower! & Thanks for the info too! I am still considering hair color after reaching my AMAZING 6 HHJ month and in all I read temporary is still the best way to go!

Onhergrind09 great results!

pelohello I LOVE doing two-strands on the weekend! these are really quick and easy to do and I won't need to pack rollers for the trip

NitaChantell you are growing closer and closer to APL!

 

[Seamonster]

Put some Claudie's ends on my ends, spritzed my hair with SM, rubbed some Komaza shea lotion on my hair, then sealed with Komaza Moku oil last night. This morning I woke up, and my hair was perfectly moisturized.

 

[BEAUTYU2U]

Went to Wally's World and got a trim. It feels SOOOOO much better. My hair is a lot smoother and I can comb through without problems. Hopefully, this will be the end of the breakage stint my hair's been doing the past few weeks.

 

[Seamonster]

BEAUTYU2U walmart does trims in your area?

 

[BEAUTYU2U]

Yeah, girl. It's called SmartStyle. It's next to the Customer Service Desk ... usually next to a little bank, nail salon, etc. (lol)

pookaloo83 how did you report, I want to report too. $600 is a whole lot of money for some poor lurker to lose

i have been bunning during the week, braidout or twistout on weekends.
i seem to be pulling down to about an inch above APL in the front now, but i don't pay any mind to those stretched measures, since i want straightened APL hair, no pulling no tugging.
i'm getting a weave next week that i'll have for about 3 months hopefully. it's the best protective style for me because i can't mess with it, and yet i still get to style some hair. debating whether or not i should get a trim before i put in the weave. my last trim was june 14th....hmmm maybe i'll just wait.

@NikkiQ OOoooooooOOOOOooooh this is a very pretty color! Nice choice!

Yes accessories may be the answer...thanks!

It's been 4 days with the minis! I love that I'm in a low maintenance PS, but I don't think this is the most flattering style for me. Some of my minis are unraveling a bit and I'm rebraidinf a little every nite while I M&S.

 

[NikkiQ]

I am SO lost right now. Why is Pook reportin me up in here???

I just used my Wen 613 mist and sealed my ends in Vatika oil

My ends feel so much better after my little trim of 1/4'', or is that considered dusting? I wore twists for about four days, now I'm working the twist out. I can't wait to wash it tomorrow.

Sounds like a dust to me,but I'm used to trims being about 2" or more so I may be mistaken.

Me to although I'm not really sure I needed a trim I did it just for a fresh start. But my hair does feel better I took off the same about 1/4" and I don't plan on doing another one til cars can fly
