APL 2012 Challenge

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.

Im with you...Im going to get one more trim this year and then no more.
 
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 :yep: 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 :thud: 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 :lol:
 
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!!! :grin: what color are you using? is it a similar red applied earlier?
 
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! :lol: & 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! :yep:

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 :lol:

NitaChantell you are growing closer and closer to APL!
 
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.
 
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.
 
Yeah, girl. It's called SmartStyle. It's next to the Customer Service Desk ... usually next to a little bank, nail salon, etc. (lol)

I bought this one. First time using the creme so it should be interesting.

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.

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? :yep:

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.
 
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.

Sent from my Android...Boom.

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;)
