Everyday Hair...The Pretty, The Nappy, The Crazy...Post Your Hair RIGHT NOW!!!

DC'ed with Naturelle Grow Chamomile and Burdock Root which I think I like best of all her DC's (I have tried them all). Moisturized with a homemade mix which so far can be used as a DC, moisturizer and curl definer. Hair feels great, love the fragrance oil I bought.

I know...loose hair on the sweater, tsk tsk lol

I used one of these thingys

and ruffled the hair a little bit until I could pin down certain pieces.
 
I didn't realize my SSK problem was this bad until I began the blowout process for my EOTY length check :( So I'm going to start my 2014 journey as a heat stretched natural. Bye bye big hair!! *cries ugly cry with strings of snot and annoying hiccups*

I had to cut a lot of hair but it turned out alright in the end...

It wasn't even the products I used.

What made the difference was:
-using more of my heat protectant serum on my fine strands (6 sections, at least quarter size amount per section) and...

I know I'm gonna get spanked for this... *goes outside to pick my switch*

- turning my flat iron up over 400 (Thanks to Sistawithrealhair):look:

Your hair has grown so much....awesome progress!
 
you just need a little cleaning up, not bad at all

Thanks. I tried to get DH to do it, but he said his hands are too shaky. I will ask my MIL when she gets here on Tuesday.


I love your hair oh my goodness!!!!! What's your regimen ? :0

Thank you Igotstripes. My regimen is mainly low manipulation.

-WNGs are my main style except for in the winter
-Twistouts are what I mostly wear in the winter, followed by buns
-I try to wash/co-cleanse and DC at least once per week
- Only use silicones when I flat iron
- I moisturize and seal my hair as needed
-My regimen consists of mostly natural/handmade products

Some of my favorite vendors are Darcy's Botanicals, B.A.S.K. Beauty, Shea Moisture, and Oyin handmade.

I also use eco styler gel for my WNGs.
 
I had no plans on going anywhere until after Christmas so I haven't been prepping my hair at night or doing anything with it for that matter. Well today I had to make a run to the grocery store so I threw it in a banana clip ponytail and got 2 compliments. I was like oooooookkkk thanks?! It's so weird that when you think you look cray cray other people find it cute. I know for a fact that today my hair was a hot fluffy frizzy ball of mess.

Christmas Do. It's a twist out done on blown out hair made into a very loose top knot. Tried my best to capture the fabulousness of this hairstyle.

Quick and dirty Twists job with them pushed to front .

Still up in air about straightening, but the laziness factor and being impressed with hair on head after less than stellar detangling sessions have me remaining with the "less is more" routine for nownow.

Kinda old (September) but here are some pics of a failed braid-out. It didn't look bad per se, it just wasn't what I was going for. Plus it was super shrunken lol

Disclaimer: I still haven't figured our the trick to taking good selfies.

Once a year flattie. When my girls tried to act jealous, I reminded them of the last time I got my hair done professionally - literally last December!
