All these dang on acronyms:

Someone explain GHE to me please? Lol

ImanAdero GHE stands for Green House Effect. Ladies take a plastic conditioning cap and wear it on their head to trap in the heat released from their head. Some use extra moisturizers or oils, some don't.

I found a way to pass the time in the shower while I let the conditioner sit on my hair-- a body scrub!! I made one from a mix of sugar and olive oil. My skin feels great and my hair is well conditioned. Win-win! :drunk:

GettingKinky , I do the SAME thing! Great minds, great minds!

Well my hair looks really short because I am 4 months post-relaxer. I'm trying not to think about length. I am going to wake up early in the morning and roller set my hair-- the curly look helps me not think about the length.

I hate wearing buns but I am considering braids for the summer. Still debating on it.
 
Thanks NikkiQ!


I swear its something new all the time an if I miss a day on here I don't know what y'all talkin bout lol.

On another note: This biotin is the truth (I think).

I have been taking it since February. And I SWEAR I have a whole 2 inches of growth. I might have to trim it (well I will), but hey that's okay!!!

Also, I THINK it's the biotin. It might just be a placebo effect, although I'm pretty sure my hair doesn't grow THAT fast. Not sure if I want to stop for 2 months to compare if it actually does make my hair grow faster lol. I think I'll just keep my brain thinking that the biotin is working (which for my nails it actually is. They're so much stronger).

I had coffee and now am just awake so I'm doing random stuff... Like measuring pieces of hair lol.
 
Since last weeks protective style was so successful I decided to co-cleanse with my wen tonight then DC'd for 2.5 hrs with my ORS replenishing condish. Then applied my leave-ins n gave myself my very 1st attempt of French braids (on myself). I will make these last until Thursday at least. I will style the length of the braids into a bun :)

Totally random question growbaby how big are the plugs in your ear? That's a cute size.

My hair has gotten much thicker with less heat and protective styles. I took my hair out of the flat twist updo I had for the past month this weekend. Friday and Sat. I prepoo'd with Amla & Brahami oil. Last night I shampoo'd with Organix Coconut Milk shampoo, DC'd with ORS Hair Mayo, then did a tea rinse with Catnip, Oatstraw, and Slippery Elm.

Then I moisturized my hair with Cantu Shea Butter Curl Activator Creme, Sweet Simplicity Hair Styler, and BASK Tapioca Creme. My hair came out soft.

I put my hair in a ponytail w/ a banana clip since my hair didn't completely dry. I put CON w/ Argan oil Edges gel on my edges (really like this when I smooth it with a toothbrush). I probably will twist again tonight for a twistout tomorrow since my hair will be nicely stretched.
 
Been wearing wash n gos for the past two months....I'm starting to get bored. Gonna try to do some flat twists later. I'm so style challenged...comes from 20 years of wearing my hair straight and wrapped. Hair hangs too much for puffs (my 3c nape won't cooperate). I need help, LOL.

On a good note, been drinking Bamboo Tea for the past week and my skin looks great. Gonna finish my 2-month supply and see if it has any effect on my grown/retention. Next official length check for me will be my 3-year nappiversay in early June.

I want some Rhassoul Clay....'Tis all.
 
Not really a bulk, Idk how to formulate that (English is my second language). It becomes frizzy at the ends and it seems like a lot of SSKs
 
growbaby your french braid bun is so cute. Whenever I make french braids they never look good enough to leave the house. But now I'm inspired to practice.

Got back into my workouts again today. I think that really does help out with hair growth with the whole increased blood flow and all. Now if only I can look like mami2010 :yep: :giggle:
 
NikkiQ :kiss: Thanks hunny! It's just I need to stop messing with it for a bit.

ImanAdero Thank you! It's all mine :o I was running late for work this morning and didn't take pics as I was going along (which was my initial plan). But this was done from an old flat twist updo. Imma try to take pics when I take it down tomorrow.
 
I ordered it before and loved the flavor, I need to order more but for the high silica benefits.

What does it taste like? I'm always worried about taste.

I cannot compare it to any one thing. I just enjoyed how smooth is, not strong at all. Maybe like green tea but much milder and not robust. I drink my teas without sweeteners because I really like the natural flavored and aroma...EXCEPT black teas, ugh.
