I usually am pretty good at being patient with my hair but lately, I am having the hardest time. Everytime I get to this point, I end up doing something stupid causing me to have a setback in some sort of fashion. I am at a really critical point in my hair care journey, making it from shoulder length to apl, and I am losing it.
Yall already know I am a complete pj but I don't even have the urges I to buy new things anymore. I buy 1 or 2 new things at a time now compared to 50-11 things at once. I go to sallys now and struggle to pick one thing out to buy. I go to ulta and look at lipgloss instead of hair care for a change. Part of me feels like if I am not buying new stuff then I am not truely committed to my hair or that I am not doing right by it. I know that is not true but it is hard to retrain your brain.
I have been so used to this hair thing being an up and down journey, I guess I am waiting something bad to happen and cause me to cry and cut 3 inches like it always seems to go. I think in this anticipation, I am getting restless and then making dumb decisions that lead to those setbacks, plus I keep having the same set back in the same spot IDK.....Am I making any sense here? Its hard to type what I hear myself saying in my head
What ways did you learn to be patient? How did you learn to change your mindset?
