My Hair Confessional

I ALWAYS daydream about my hair in the wind covering my WHOLE face....and STILL looking cute. It'll be all shiny too, oh the day shall come!
 
i did a length check and realized i went from 6 to 8 inches around the back of my head since nov. 2009. i'm almost giddy at the thought that i could be in the double digits by summer and deliriously ecstatic that i could my hair length will be in teens by the end of the year:drunk:. this would mean shoulder length to practically bsl (i'm tall) in a year. i was praying for apl but all things are possible. :yay:
 
I confess that yesterday when I Skyped(video chatted) with a friend of mine while rocking my SL freshly-relaxed-feather-wrapped-swanging-blowout hair, her eyes popped:shocked: and I felt so warm and good inside. The last time she had seen my hair it was NL HAM.....

I confess that I Skyped with her just to show off my better than ever healthy hair.....

I confess that I was bursting with joy inside when she asked what I had been doing to it to get it so healthy....

Please note, I did this to her because she always told me that my hair is not the 'good' type and will never grow. Keep in mind that she has BSL hair that is thinning lately because she is sadly committed to her unhealthy-hair-practices stylist. She refuses any type of hair advice and only listens to her darling stylist.

I also confess that when she asked what I had been doing, I shrugged and said.."Shampooing and stuff..." *insert evil laugh here*:grin:
 
I confess that although I am not a PJ, I am obsessed with just looking at hair products, styling tools, and hair accessories. I can be running late and need to pop in the store for just one quick thing and I will still somehow manage to make it over to the haircare aisle.
 
im secretly happy i got asked if im mixed with spanish. although it was an ignorant question on dude's part, it does mean that he thought my hair was long, lol
 
I confess that I grew up in "White People World" (sadly, that simply means that we were middle class, literate, and seriously the minority in town. Thankfully, that's changing as educated Black people are moving back home and being more visible) and it's totally okay with me.

In White People World (and the sweet bubble of a town) I never had to deal with good hair vs. bad hair (or light/dark skin), no one I actually knew thought my hair couldn't grow, and I had a lot of encouragement to go and stay natural.

I eventually went to a more diverse high school and have since moved to NYC, but during my formative years I never had anyone tell me that I or my hair was "less than". Actually, I was happily naive about some weird stereotypes pre-LHCF. But most of the forum is positive and I love it!
 
Yesterday was my 6th months natural anniversary. My hair has grown a lot. However, I do not take great care of it. I barely shed. I detangle once a week if that. I barely poo and I do not sleep with a scarf just a satin pillow case Im 100% curly I do not use heat. I barely touch my hair.
 
:look:..This morning, I dreamt about hair products...i'm still in my crochet style and dreaming of hair butters... is this a problem? :lol:
 
I feel really bad about this.
For the past year or so i've been in a lazy hair rut and just can't seem to get out of it. I joined challenges only not to even attempt to follow through with them and casually drop out. The beginning of the year i stretched for 6 months only to turn around and stretch for another 6 months (out of laziness amongths other things), wow. For next year i joined atleast 5 challenges so far in hopes for it to motivate me.
On the other hand i don't think my hair has suffered much but i will be able to tell indefinitely when i retouch before christmas.
 
I just ordered the Mommy wig, purely because of its rave reviews on Youtube.
It was on sale, it made sense to get it now.
But I'm currently weaved up.
And I think I look like a man with short hair.

Impulsive hair purchase habits plus reviews equals bad for me.

Imma buy some sublimed sulfur too. Dang!
 
I confess that when I reach my goal I'm gonna purposely stunt on people in public. I'm gonna be bun dropping at every opportunity
 
I confess that although I just flat ironed my hair last month, I wanna do it again specifically for stunting purposes:look:
 
i confess that i just re-washed and re-flat ironed my hair so it could be extra swangy to see a certain someone. :look:
 
i sealed my hair yesterday with motions oil moisturizer because i had a full bottle on the counter.i know it's full of all sorts of icky things but...college students shoudn't be wasting money/product. besides, i haven't used it since i was SL relaxed, so i wanted to see if there'd be a difference.

i've been using terri's method (only using various conditioners) and using a aussie as a leave in/combing conditioner. that + motions = my hair was super soft and STILL DEFINED this morning. which is saying something, because 2nd day hair is usually a struggle for me.

i've been cowashing every night because of this cold. i can't stand to be sick with my head wet during the day.
 
I confess that in all my 5 yrs of being natural I never onced flat ironed my hair but tonight I did so it could blend in with my straight half wig and its blinging..Im soo looking forward to relaxing now..

I also confess that I love others being natural but not myself..I like the look of straight hair on my fat face and body..I like weaves but have grown tired of them..
