Idiosyncrasies: HAIR Edition

[ravenhairedcharm]

So do you have any weird/crazy hair habits or behaviors?

I'll start.

1. For no particular reason I refuse to use commercial "chemical" laden leave-ins, butters or anything designed to stay in my hair, but I can use a rinse-out with cones, parabens ect.

2. Whenever I style my hair, I test the strength of shed hairs by breaking them...it's become quite an unusual habit.

Please tell me I'm not the only weird one...

I pre-poo eventhough I don't poo. I "shampoo" with deep conditioner. And I condition w/oil (not conditioner).

hmmm, it's not exactly a hair habit, but sometimes I will bring a small hand held mirror with me in the shower to see how long my hair looks with water running down it don't judge me.


sometimes when I'm applying product to my hair outside of the shower and standing in front of a mirror (wash and go, deep conditioning, etc) I will either mentally say (or actually say out loud) what I'm doing or about to do I think it's a habit I picked up from watching sooooooo many youtube vids on natural hair while I was transitioning lol. I'll catch myself doing it and laugh.


When I buy hair products I will sit with them next to me while I'm on here or watching youtube vids and will look at them, read the label, open the bottle to smell it, whatever. Sometimes I will watch a product review of whatever it is that I purchased even if I used it before, while holding said purchase. lol I'm weird.

Ok I do some of this too...seems like I'm blind to some of the weird stuff I do.

I talk to my newborn about products that mommy wants and uses. He just smiles

I don't use shampoo or conditioner. I'm kind of an anti-product junkie. I've been using the same bottle of coconut oil since February.

I do the exact same things!!! Except for the mirror part. Gonna try it tho

Sometimes i will just sit there on my bed holding a product and give a whole product review straight Youtube style!

But you know what? When i cook i talk like im hosting a cooking show on tv!

I'm licensed to do weird things mmkay?

 

[Angelinhell]

I sometimes record product reviews on my phone lol. I used to practice because at one point I wanted a youtube channel. Not anymore.

 

[InBloom]

Since I now enjoy my hair routine....

I like to have an alcoholic beverage as I take my time straightening. Then add in the occasional flounce of straightened hair as I go along.

Hubby's in the other room, thoroughly annoyed that it's taking too long.

Whenever I'm in a buggy environment, I HAVE TO wash my hair when I get home. Have To. And the whole time I'm exposed to nature, all I can think about is how awesome it will be to hop in the shower, and work in that co-cleanser... I'm the one in the middle of the cook-out talking about how I can't wait to get home and wash my hair. Yea, I'm That girl.
