@ScorpioLove I bought the microscope on Black Friday, but only just took it out of the box today. Mainly because I was afraid of what I was going to see. :sad:

But I don't think that it's too bad and I enjoy seeing what the photographs reveal. At this point, I can either introduce suds back into my routine or keep on going as is.

Last night I pre-pooed wtih babassu oil. I covered my hair with a plastic cap. I'm assuming that what I'm seeing on my scalp are oil and water deposits, even though I put the oil on my hair. (I have to play around with the microscope a bit more, but I'm assuming that the thinner strands are new hairs.)

This morning, I used a DIY ayurvedic mask that I find works for "removing" build up. My scalp was still a bit damp, but I think that everything looked a lot clearer.

These are still after. I can see some water, but I can also see some deposits of who knows what on a few of the strands. The places that I checked looked mostly like the pictures above.

Also, the grey hair. It's starting to come in. :cry3: It looks like polar bear hair. I think it will be neat to take a look at my scalp after using different masks and different techniques. I've suspected that I also don't do the greatest job of rinsing my hair when I finish washing, so maybe this will help me to do better.

I did take a look at my face skin... that was frightening.

I have NOT forgotten. :laugh:

I have an event on the 10th (next Saturday) and so I plan on using it at the end of next week.

I need to properly detangle my hair before then.

I went back to play with my microscope and I've come to learn that I'm better at rinsing out the top of my hair than the sides and back. I'll need to work on that.

Also, when I mentioned my skin earlier, I can definitely see my age through the microscope. While people say the camera doesn't lie, that in itself is a lie. I could take pictures all day. I like the lies that it tells me. :laugh: My scalp skin looks wrinkly, too.

I'm sitting here crying into my jug of water now. This will be my motivation to stay hydrated.
