I rolled my ends on flexirods last night and my ends got too curly. I sprayed my hair with aloe juice and detangled, but now my hair looks frizzy
I kinda feel like what I'm doing in my hair care regimen is not fully working. So, I couldn't wait to order some hair oil that everyone on these boards are raving about. I've been anticipating for my order to come since last week and it hasn't. I'm just HOT, HOT, HOT!
I placed 2 orders on different days on the first week in January(1st & 3rd) and have yet to receive my products. 4 items to be exact when the store promises to be shipped within 7-10 business days. I don't think I'll be ordering from them I feel ripped off...:mob:
The weather in NYC has been frigid and disrespectful, so I decided to do some mini twists. I will most likely put in some extensions over the weekend to further protect my hair (and keep my hands out of it). Sent from my iPhone using LHCF
Your straight hair is so flawless I keep forgetting you are natural. Yes this cold weather is no joke.snoop I am so over this cold weather. My skin is super dry, my lips are chapped and I pretty much have to keep my hair covered when I am outdoors. missyrayne19 I miss cowashing. I don't do them anymore because of my once a month wash regimen. Maybe once my hair is longer I can cowash and bun. Right now my hair shrinks to neck length so there's not much I can do with my natural hair (unstretched).
I am having issues with my hair and am experiencing a set back after a good run. Last week I decided to try MHM but the wash n go thing didn't with out (my fault for not spending the extra time to thoroughly detangle.) Also I don't think my hair liked the baking soda (maybe I should have been using the ACV?) Also, the extreme drop in temp doesn't help (I've only been out once, but it seems to have changed the environment inside the house). In any case, my hair feels extra dry.
I did a DC with mayo on Tuesday and my hair felt great afterwards. I have to do a thorough detangling session at some point but in the meantime I have to style my hair in such a way as to do a god dusting.
I'd been happy with lightly sealing up until now but I'm going to revisit my routine from last winter and pull out the heavier oils. Ugh! I'm so disappointed.
Since I'm out of a moisturizer and trying to experiment with perfecting my hair regimen. Heck I don't know what I'm doing...I'll admit that! I used some of my sisters Pink Styling Lotion...(shhh) Yep, I went back to the old school method there. And then I applied Hemp grease on top, braided my hair in a ponytail, and baggied overnight.
I am hoping that I will make MBL by the end of the year... we shall see.
Soooo I have been stretching my relaxers to 12 weeks, but that just does not seem to be working anymore. I may have to cut down to 10. Seems like the longer my hair gets the more it breaks off when stretching. ugh
My relaxed ends are hanging on for dear life I am determined to get these scraggly things to BSL. My longest layer (relaxed) is back to being one inch past APL and my natural hair (nape only) is almost SL. If only I could stop using heat smh
Are you doing a long term transition? Make sure to keep those ends strong and moisturized. You can do it!
Sorry that's happening. May I ask how you're styling after 10 weeks? I'm ending my stretch on Sunday at 16 weeks but only because of protective styles.Soooo I have been stretching my relaxers to 12 weeks, but that just does not seem to be working anymore.
