Crown and Glory 2023!

[Bette Davis Eyes]

This is the start of week 3 of my latest protective style. I haven’t really been on the same moisturizing schedule. Next Sunday we will be flying out for spring break. By the time we will get back it will week 4. I’m thinking my hair won’t come down until week 5.

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

I can’t wait to take my hair down when I come back next Saturday.

I know my hair isn’t going to be massively longer but I know it’s been growing steadily.


Super stoked!!

I haven't had this crochet hairstyle up for a week and already I want to take it down and do my mini braids lol

Edit: Correction, it's been 9 days lol I finished it Resurrection Friday (March 29)

This time I did some twist. Coincidentally, I also finished them before Resurrection Day

When I install my next protective style I’m going to oil my scalp daily with an Ayurvedic hair oil ( before moisturizing with Taliah Waajid) for four straight weeks and see what happens upon the next take down.


I’m trying to see if I’m going to use Curly Proverbz Fenugreek oil. “Thinking “

Or do I want to infuse my own oil

Welcome back from vacay!! I hope you guys had a great time!

I swear by regularly applying Ayurvedic scalp oils. I believe it has attributed to my hair growing in shinier, bouncier and healthier feeling. I used to try to avoid stuff on my scalp but I've had pretty consistent results from using Ayurvedic scalp oils so I'm not gonna stop. I usually make my own mixes. There are also pre-mixed herbal packs online that you can use to infuse any oil you want.

We are still partying. Currently in Cozumel. We don’t get back home until Saturday evening. If I’m not tired I’m taking my hair down and washing it Sunday morning. He’s had a ball @MzSwift


My hair doesn’t like coconut oil so sometimes I’m limited by that because the hair will be extra dry on take down near my scalp if I use a lot of coconut oil blends.

Aww!

And yeah, my hair isn't a fan of EVCO either. I only use EVOO and Sweet Almond oil for my scalp infusions. Maybe you can try one of those?

My brain is hilarious cause sometimes it takes things literally.

I was just musing what kind of ball it was and how large was it

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

Currently on week five of this crochet braids. I’ll take them out Saturday morning, do my washday routine and get my hair put back in Sunday morning.


Four weeks really flies by. I like it more than waiting six weeks.

Saw this on Amazon and think it will be good for my trial daily oil run during the next protective style

I’m taking my hair down Friday evening. After skating…. Maybe LOL.

I’m getting my hair braided Saturday afternoon though so it has to come down.


I can’t wait to see what my hair looks like now. Skeeeeeee

All braided back up for another 4 weeks.

Most of the growth this last protective style was in the back as usual. With my hair growing out and not down , the back is quicker than the top and sides.
