Sometimes I think of becoming a hair stylist :)

Or making my own product line.

I dunno. It's mostly just daydreams. lol

 
I cant wait for this transition to be over so that I can experiement with all new products. I refuse to buy anything new until then.
 
I want to be a hair stylist. I have big dreams of opening a salon after I get my REAL career in gear.
 
-This is the longest that I have gone without a relaxer.(11 weeks)
-I'm scared that I won't transition and will end up relaxing again.
-I know that black hair can grow long but am worried that mine will not. When I say worried, I really mean that I think about hair failure and have a tightness in my chest. Im getting it right now. Oh gosh!

Yes.....to your 3rd bullet point.

I do not think that I will ever have long hair:wallbash::wallbash:- I should feel sad, but I don't because hair is still my hobby:look:. Honestly a full shoulder length jet black bob would make me very happy.

Sometimes I seriously think about that. Before I came to this board I was always talented with hair. Now that I've become more knowledgeable and informed I've been thinking about it even more. My mom wouldn't like that much though.
 
my hair is horribly underprocessed in many places. its so weird, like straight, coily, straight.... i have like 3 lines of demarcation when my hair is wet and unstyled.

but i still think being underprocessed is better than being overprocessed :ohwell:
 
I confess I have afro envy, my fro is nowhere near as big as I want.

I confess I'm a lazy natural, water is my best friend.

I confess I laugh when people say they would go natural if there hair was like mine. I don't have wash and go hair, it has to be set and when I tell them this, their faces are priceless.

I confess I see way more fly naturals than relaxed chicks, by percentage not by numbers. It's like the minute women become natural they step their clothing, accessory, makeup game up. I guess because we know we have to over compensate to be seen as attractive by society's standards.

I confess I think hairtyping is stupid, I have no idea what my hairtype is and I din't care.
 
Several years ago I flew back to HU for what should have been my own graduation to see and congratulate my friends for graduating......:look:
but instead I went and got my hair done because nobody does senegalese twists better than the braiders in DC :blush::ohwell:.
But they know I love them and I saw most of them afterward or the next day.
 
I need to get rid of my maxiglide because it tempts me sometimes. :(

Eeeeevil Maxiglide.

I would try selling it here (only used it like 2 times), but I have no idea how to do the whole paypal thing. Maybe I'll look into it.
 
I will not be convinced that anyone made it from SL to WL in one year from bunning until I see photos...............
 
i confess:

*that is sort of bothers me that i get hit on more wearing my hair natural then when I'm in braids or wearing wigs.
*I'll be happy when mother nature stops ***'n with the weather so I can stick 2 a consistent hairstyle
*sometimes i want to slather my head with Cantu leave-in b/c its feels so good on my hair
*that i envy the women on this board that BC b/c I HATE scissors and I don't have the confidence to rock a short cut
*i still dont know how 2 curl my own hair *scaredy cat*
*that when I used 2 get my hair down & any kind of heat came near my head I'd get instant flashbacks 2 all the times I've been burned getting my hair donw:lachen:
 
- I miss my straight relaxed hair:nono:
- I wish my hair wasnt so thick
- I've been lacking on my regimen
- I still regret cutting my hair from APL to EL about 2yrs ago
- Im a cheap PJ, i buy and buy but i dont wanna get rid of anything because that means im wasting.
- Im only posting in this topic so i can see my natural anniversary count down thingy:lachen:
 
im thinking about cutting all my color out of my hair. i dont know yet but i might. its not a big deal to me to cut my hair anymore, im just happy to be natural. my biggest thing with cutting it now though is that its getting cold and i would hate to walk around with a baby twa and its freezing. esp. since i co washed everyday when i first bc and thats all i know to do.
atleast now i can wear twists. i think i may just walk it out lmao.
 
Darn Andre for recommending Fekkai and Neil George products! now I have to go to Ulta and try the Shea Butter hair mask I've been eying.

I'm also thinking about going to heat once a week....maybe even going back to the salon...hmmmmmm
 
Letta, why don't you like being hit on with your natural hair? I would think one would love it!

idk. its just weird to me. im honestly not used 2 being hit on PERIOD but its been like 10 fold since the wig came off. :lachen: I dont think I have the confidence to totally rock my natural hair because I'm always thinkin "OMG DOES IT LOOK OKAY?!?" and then some dude is staring at me or about to say sumthin. Then I think "is there something in my teeth? Oh goodness please dont let it be that my panties are showing" :lachen: I need my brain to turn off sometimes.

I should be happier. I just need to stop over analyzing things so much.
 
Agreed. :lol: Enjoy it!

I think it's normal to worry about a lot of things whenever something out of the normal happens. It's like - dang homie, why you all up in my mug? :lol:

But be confident! They obviously think you look good!
 
Confession:

I never even knew what a relaxer/perm was until I was out of High School :lachen: I just thought everybody got a press n' curl
 
Must've been nice, imaging everyone is natural. Then one day, you're like :thud:

:lol:

SO and I were walking through the mall and I complimented another natural. He told me that a did that I lot, to which I told him, "I have to uplift my natural sistas."

He says, "How did you know she was natural? She coulda took the perm out just last week."

Like it was a hat or something. He was joking, though, thank goodness. :lol:

I must confess I am very selfish. When people ask me questions about my hair or what do I use to make it grow so fast. I lie and say wash and conditioner only that's all I do. I just don't care to give them advice I feel their hair is there business not mine.
 
confession: my natural hair is gorgeous, and i regret relaxing every single day. =[ i'm ready for this transition to speed by.
 
i confess:

i shoulda went with my gut and not listened to my mom when she said jus put the conditioner in my hair dry and bag it. It doesnt feel the same. I shoulda pre-poo'd 1st like I normally do:wallbash:

i hav an internal race going on in my head. my mom and i have the same length hair and 4 some reason i really want to beat her 2 BSL:lachen: i think shes got me slightly beat 2 APL:sad::grin:
 
I can't wait to be weave checked. :giggle:

And to pull my hair out from under collars, from under my bag, to flick it over my shoulder, etc.
 
Okay third confession:

I confess that im now suspect of everybody i see with decent hair products in their arsenal.. Ex.. was at DH's friends house last night, im also friends with his girlfriend... I went to the bathroom and was like :blush: she has motions moisture plus! and ORS products! and the Big bottle of Aphogee! and a bottle of S-curl but she wears a weave! and cream of nature poos and leave ins!!

this selection of products just screamed LHCF to me!! i wanted to ask her if she was a regular on a hair forum but i was afraid she'd just look at me like :look: instead of :yep:

i didnt even think to buy half the products i have now in my pre-lhcf days so i automatically think if you use some of this stuff you just HAVE to be on here.. :grin:

keeping my fingers crossed that i found my healthy hair soul mate in chicago :drunk:
