I'm so bored guys.... I PS 24/7 in twists and I'm just tired of the look. It's the only style that I can retain and grow with... so tired of looking the exact same in pictures...

Outside of that though, I'm tired of hair period, hide your hair today, vitamin tomorrow, DC, protein, porosity, steam, bun, baggy, clarify, chelate... haaaaaa... when will all this madness end?? Assuming I get to waist length, what will i do with my hair? Keep wearing twists?? I can't wear this hair out... too hard.

lol... I'm not upset.. just so sick, tired and bored with this hair madness.
 
Honestly, there are 10 million ways to wear twists. Just think of them as large strands of hair and style them as you would if your hair were loose. When you feel like you need a break, wear a twist out for a week.
Hope others can give other suggestions or different points of view.
 
Maybe you could buy a nice wig or something. Braid up your own hair so it's protected then have some fun with fake hair. You could fry, dye and lay it to the side and not have to worry about damaging your own tresses.

Enjoy your hair for a while and forget about damage. Try roller setting once every week or two or even flat iron to mix it up.
 
I think excitement and boredom ebbs and flows on these forums and it's natural. While you are in this phase just focus on other things. You'll get the hair itch eventually. Your hair looks very nice and you have great retention. Try rollersetting your twists for a change in look. Part of all the bandwagon stuff done on the forums is just that fun and it keeps a level of excitement and momentum. Is all of it needed.... probably not IMO. Most could get away with very simple routines. This "thing" is as much about the journey to length as the actual length.
 
Braid it up and forget about it for 6 weeks. Weave it up and forget about it for 6 months. Loc it up or Perm it up and fugghedaboutit :look: No matter what you choose you will have to maintain some sort of regimine unless you just don't want healthy hair.

I'm so with you lovegymnasts :yep: I think of twists as hair and never get bored of them.

Sounds like it's time to switch things up. What other styles have you tried? Fingercoils are fun. Or just get it cornrowed, plop on a wig, whatever. There's a lot of options. Even with twists, there's a ton of options.

As for your frustration with hair period, well, ask yourself if all of the thing you listed are necessary? I love to try out new things, but a lot of that stuff is just not a NECESSITY for me.

Step back and take a break. Everyone gets like this from time to time.

I'm with you judy4all. I just want to put a bag on my head :lol: But I am going to stay as quiet as possible so the other ladies can encourage you and get you through this season. Hope you feel better soon. :yep:
 
Your hair looks great, it looks like my extensions do. LOL

You wanna change your look up? Get a new eyeshadow and lip gloss and BAM, look changed.
 
I became a nail fanatic. Instead of 'fixing' my hair twice a week, I was busy painting my nails. Funky nail colors distracted me from wanting to remove my twists earlier than I needed to. :D
 
lol... Guys.. I made an appointment to straighten my hair on 12/31... I'll post pictures.... Ive been doing the nails for a month.... Tired... lol
 
Maybe consider takeing a less is more approach to haircare-- and see if you really need to do all of those things to your hair in order for it to thrive. Just reading your list wore me out:spinning:

lmbo @ fry dye... this is me lace wigs weaves with color or not. All while my hair reaps the benefits i made it from apl to past bsl just keep your hair moisturized under the wigs/weaves
