Hair Time

[syze6]

So this past weekend I had the whole house to myself and I had planned from that morning to wash and deep condition my hair. I had not sat under my dryer in a long time. It was so refreshing...I was like a kid in a candy store. When I tell you how relaxed I was and happy to be doing it....you would have thought I was at a spa! LOL! My hubby left and was like, "What's all the fuss about washing hair?" He had to be a woman to understand. It was the experience of taking time out for myself and knowing I was giving my hair what it needed.

Anyone else ever feel this way?

I feel you. We naturals are high maintenance so I take every opportunity to do my hair, especially on the weekends.

I do enjoy that time, but I have not felt that I've had time to enjoy it in a while. since starting grad school.

Hair time is like an event in my house. Thank God I only have 1 daughter. It takes an hour or so to wash, condition and twist her hair once a week. It takes 2 hours to wash, dc, detangle and braid mine. If I flat iron that adds another hour. I'm getting tired just thinking about it

Even though I loved my time to do my hair, I will always hate showering , going under the dryer then having to get back in the shower again. I think that may be the real reason I hadn't deep conditioned in so long.

I use it as an opportunity to use my foot spa and coming on here...It is calming. @syze6 I understand that totally! This is going to sound crazy, but I DC (sit under the steamer), hop in the shower (rinse out the conditioner), shampoo, rinse out the shampoo, put the regular conditioner on, put my hair up in a clip, wash my body, rinse the conditioner out, get out the shower...I'm not suggesting this for anyone else, but it has worked well for me for quite some time now...

This is why I wash in the sink now. I wash in the sink, then apply my dc. I rinse it out in the shower and then I let it airdry.

Yes yes yes... It's my time to relax. I sit under the dryer and read a good book. I continue the book every weekend under the hoodie... I look forward to it.

I have to wash in the shower with my hair straight back, otherwise it tangles badly when I wash with my head forward in the sink.

That's why wash/deep condition my hair at night when I shower then rinse the conditioner out in the morning when I shower again.
