I wanted loose waves so I opted for the extra wide and long curlformers

I also pinned the back up since it was all over my jacket with a comb from simplistic designs

Added pics that were not so dark.

Love it. I never used heard of a wet/dry flat iron. How is it not damaging?
I would love something like this. I hate how my hair looks after it poofs out with airdrying and it's really hard to manage. I also hate blow drying. My hair is much easier to handle wet.

hey wavezncurlzWhen I use it, my hair is towel dried and slightly damp. Personally I haven't experienced heat damage and my hair goes back to its natural state when washed, with no stringy bits

I find this is the easiest way to get my hair straight. When I blow dry my hair first, it makes my hair dry and reverts quicker

winona The extra wide and long curlformers are my staple style. Love them!

Count down to 40 is on and I got my hair did. .

ETA: Hairstyle is tree braids done with human hair (wet n wavy).

Don't want to wet it yet and need to figure out how to get some curls into this hair. Will try putting in some rollers tonight.

Flat ironed and curled. I think it looks better this way. I tried wetting it too and I am not getting enough curl.

Another twist out....chunkier than usual. I used QB's AOHC and AHTB. I got better definition than usual at my crown and the front of my head. Those are the areas that are coarser and thicker...and I find they don't usually define as well as the back.

bajandoc86 love the hair and the hair band!

All these length check, progress status updates. I'm gonna post my 2 year progress here.

I've been natural since @ 21 years old. Will be 40 in less than 10 days.

I tend to grow my hair and then shave it. I am currently in a grow phase. Last hair cut (shave) was December 2007. I didn't learn about LHCF until 2009. Didn't start documenting the journey until October 2009. So no readily accessible pics before these.

More pics of my hair in my LHCF albums.

3 day old curlformer set survived rain yesterday. I am a bkted natural. I maintained it by sleeping on satin pillowcase no scarf/bonnet because it would smooshed my curl. I have not done any retouches but tonight I am flat twist it to go under my wig for finals

 

[itismehmmkay]

My hair straight up look crazy doing too damn much. Random haircuts n messing with my techniques n regimens. Ah well. I'm currently under the dryer with cholesterol. Think imma give rollersets a mini break so I can focus on my edges n kinda leave the hair alone. I'm using these pics as my starting pics for my challenges.

Le sigh

In my 10th month of my long-term transition to natural.

This is a puff on a 2 week old curlformer set (maintained with pincurls). I plan on on washing tonight. My hair is like "I'm so dirty and itchy. Please wash."

What products do you use on your hair? It looks very well moisturized? Tia!

My La Jay wig was just delivered so I put it on and snapped a few pics.

This thing is massive. Way to much hair for me for an everyday wig. I'm about to cut it. I'll order another one to wear as is.

You already have it now, so you should be good when it gets longer. It just takes trial and error.

I use a lot of stuff but haven't really been a PJ lately, just kind of sticking to the tried and true. Here I used Shea Moisture curl enhancing smoothie on blowdried hair. That adds great shine to my hair and others i have seen that also like the product. I also like the Shine Mist. That adds shine and light moisture. Those are my two favs so far right now. I want to try the souffle. Also Shea Butter helps with shine when I blow dry. I have been PS for like 2 1/2 months so my hair was super nice looking from little manipulation. The products also added weight to my hair and if it wasn't for that Bentonite clay, I think my hair would have been softer and even shiner. BC is the devil to rinse out of thick shrunken hair. But I am not going to wash again unless my hair tells me too or my scalp feels bad.

I hardly shampoo, I really hate shampoo. I used to use an Ayurveda bar but now that I have BC again that's what I'll use. I co wash with whatever I have laying around. I need to find a new co wash conditioner cause I don't like any that I have now. Might revisit Aussie Moist. I use Silk Elements moisturizing Treatment to DC.


Recap:

Shampoo:BC or (hardly use) whatever is laying around
cowash: Whatever is laying around but store bought nothing salon brand
heat protectant: shea butter
Leave in that I use as a moisturizer but haven't used lately: Cantu Shea
Moisturizer on dry hair: SMCES and SHINE MIST C&H
Seal: with whatever but usually shea butter, EVOO or coconut oil. I hardly seal too.
