Hey everybody this lady is actually a crafter on YT so I was surprised to see a hair video. I just love her energy. In fact I wish I had her attitude when it comes to hair. Instead I’ve got to have this ‘whenthen’ thing. As in ‘when I reach APL then I’ll be happy’. So in the meantime I’m sitting over here not posting, being generally triffling and leaning in every picture I take:sad:

BTW, Ok, I did tag everyone and their mama on this, but my threads have this way of dying.:rolleyes: Besides isn’t fun seeing that notification in bold? Thanks and :peace_sm:
 
You are funny girl. I was wondering who was tagging me for what :look:

I can't watch this now but I will check it out when I get home.
 
Thank you for tagging me, I've never been tagged in a relevant thread before!

I think I needed this video. For the longest time I've always been thinking about my hair goals and never really enjoying my hair at the length it is. I think I need to start focusing on enjoying it and appreciating it for what it is... I like how she's really happy with the progress she's made. Everyone's progress is different and not everyone's hair will grow at the same rate, or the same way etc, so it's time to focus on self and what you've got at the moment.
 
I know dont it seem like you get obssessed over the wrong thing like length first & everything else later! LOL I definately need to pay more attention to whats most important. I mean I do take care of my hair since starting my HHJ but I always have in the front of my mind "Why isnt my hair growing faster!?!" I am so glad she is happy with her length goal she has made so far. I need to be like THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
thanks girl! that's why i am just going back to basics. i am tired of worrying about am i going to make it to APL. i know it will come. all that worrying causes me to do too much to my hair.
 
shortdub78. I hear you and I'm glad you got tagged! I saw where it left off and was like what am I doing wrong. I just figured Nikko didn't want people blowing up his database. Good to see that it worked:)
 
I hear you about living in the moment. I also feel like when I reach full APL then I would be happy with my hair but what I learnt from the video is to set smaller reachable goals. I wanted full APL hair since I was NL and so far I still feel my hair is short and I am not retaining as much as I should.

I need to set a small milestone for myself but I am past SL and there is no in-between. Is there :drunk:

Thanks for tag. I feel special :)
 
Thanks for tagging me. I've been letting my hair do its own thing until it figures out what it wants to do but any inspiration is definitely welcome : )
 
She was funny. She was happy, happy, happy.

I am trying to stay in the moment. I do have a lot of positives to celebrate. And my hair is getting better and better. But everytime I have to wash it I am wishing for APL :look:
 
This video made me laugh! :lol: Her happiness is awesome. :yep:

I started to find myself slipping towards the "HURRUP" end of the scale... and when I started experiencing breakage due to PCOS I started to feel really sad... I just had to stop and remember that 1. I totally missed my two year natural anniversary :look: and 2. Appreciate what I have and ENJOY it instead of focusing solely on length.
 
Love her accent! But yea I got a lil crazy myself for awhile being length obsessed....but then I realized a few things:
1. I don't wear my hair straight. If I want to in the future I can simply weave it up!
2. My ends needed to be trim/dusted more often
3. I needed to go back to basics
4. Stop covering my hair and praying for a miracle.

As of lately since I've been in the braid/twist/bun challenge I've appreciated my hair more
I'll worry about length later why...because it will come when its ready!
Working on the health of my hair by listening to her and my body!

Love the ladies accent! Hmmm in high school and my longest length ever was apl in the front and sides and bsl in the back. Eventually I'll get there but I want/HAVE healthy hair....that there is a blessing in itself!
 
Thanks for tagging me in.......I'm determined to just go with the flow with regards to my hair and life in general. l take each day as it comes and enjoy the journey :yep:
 
I like her attitude too. You should leave her a positive comment.

I always leave videos I like a nice comment. You know how mean the Internet community can be.

My friend posted a simply video on civics and someone said she was ugly. Which isn't true.

Iluvsmuhgrass. Thank you for mentioning PCOS. I have the same thing and should be really grateful for the hair I have. Slow growing or not.:lol:

Good looking out. You are so right. I clicked like and then wanted to tell everyone over here:grin:. I finally did leave her a comment.
 
LOL! Thanks for tagging me in, she was hilarious. When I hit my 3 year nappiversary yesterday I was bummy because the weather is going to be nasty the rest of the week (not gonna spend a grip to get it professionally straightened and I can't really floss like I wanna). This video definitely helped me put things in perspective.
