Oh Yeah Che, I was going to tell you to definitely let Charz and Robot "access" the situation if you go with them to that Oyin Bottle Party Thingy.

They can give you an objective 'eye':eye:

So, step away from the Scissors and stop thinking about Da' Barber.....

Sorry that you're frustrated with your hair.
But how long has that area been thin? If it's been that way all your life, then maybe that's just how your hair grows. Like for some people, they think that relaxer thins their hair, so they go natural, only to find that it wasn't the relaxer after all. Their hair just grows in thin all over, or in certain spots, and that's just how it does.

Anyway, I don't think you should cut it again.

Have you tried any topical solutions?

thank you T and mkd
chaos, my hair used to be thick, well my strands were always thin but i had alot of hair. then i got carried away with color and i had a mishap with taking a cap off that pulled a bunch of my hair out. ontop of having a relaxer. so technically the hair got thin in that area because of the cap i used to color but when i did the big chop all of my hair was curly except for the front bang area because of the relaxer. i guess it was scab hair. it took over 4 months for my hair to start growing curly in the area, so now i can cut the damage off and have the same texture all around but because of the cap it is thin.
i dont know what to do. people say you can get your hair thick again but it aint happening for me. i massage my scalp like 2x a week, ive been using bee mine but really im not a fan of putting stuff on my scalp. i did the big chop april of 09 so to me thats enough time for the hair to grow in that area.

BUT, im always second guessing myself because my dad has very very very thin, fine, type 2 hair. his whole side of the family has very fine thin hair so family keep saying its normal but i dont think so.

*coughs and clears throat* Speaking of Using things up.....I finished up that bottle of Pure Cold Pressed Castor Oil. I will be moving on to the J/A/S/O/N Vitamin E Oil to seal after apply my creamy B4 putting on my Wig.

I pulled out that and the Apricot Kernel Oil, so I will use those 2 up hopefully within the month of February.

Weekend Wash Day, I am hoping to use up a couple of small things.

I Already Know I am not going to like that Lustrasilk Shea Mango (it smells 'cheap') but, I will use it up anyway.

So, I took 2 empty jars and mixed one with CO & the Lustrasilk and mixed the other with EVOO & the Lustrasilk. Hopefully, I can use it up before the end of February.

You really have a solid use up plan, I'm going to try this next month. Can you believe it February already we just said Happy New Year.

Feed me Seymore!!!!

I ordered from QueCraft

I can't figure out how to actually cut and paste pics in the thread but these are the ones that I bought. I found this store on etsy a few weeks ago but I was skeptical because she was in Thailand and then I saw Dlewis thread about the seller and I got super excited.

OMG
Its on....My pjism just got real

 

[natura87]

I just did my taxes. Chances are one of y'all are going to find me in some alley passed out w/conditioner all around my mouth and in between my fingers.

Seriously, I think I'm just gonna do one nice makeup haul and be done with it. I'm making my list right now. I plan on saving for my upcoming trips, I have three in the next 2 months or so (New Orleans, NYC, Vegas). I may be sliding to Puerto Rico right quick too I know, I know, who slides to Puerto Rico? *Raises hand*

Why did this just make me think of Dave Chappelle's character Tyrone Biggums?

[Shay72]

Okay it's been two months without buying products and I'm proud of myself but I need to get me some Taliah Wajiid PMB and Claudies Edges & Temple Balm. So just replacing staples. I'm also low on Shikai Everyday Condish but I got a lot of cowash condishes so I will wait on that one.

 

[♥Lamaravilla♥]

I used up something, but I can't remember what it was. Classes are killing me y'all. It's taking everything in me to hold on till May.

ETA: I remember now, I used up a Kinky Curly Spiral spritz, not repurchasing, it smells, I'm beginning to think it's me cause every-damn-thing smells bad to me, you'd think I was pregnant
And I used up one of my Almond Glaze

 

[♥Lamaravilla♥]

I am thinking about throwing a tablespoon of henna in with my other powders when I do a gloss tomorrow. I really hope my hair doesn't turn red or my lose its curls over such a negligable amount of henna.

i heard henna loosens texture but not a great amount so im sure you will be fine. and it doesnt loosen all the time anyway from what i hear.

Yes, really thick. I don't even use the spray bottle. I just pour it into my hand and rub it into my hair.

I used up some of my Oyin HH on my hair today. Tell me why I am in class playing with/sniffing my puff/fro completely disregarding the hottie right next to me...?

I am soo into my hair!

 

[JJamiah]

Just checking in I still have $10 left for my monthly budget. I never picked up my 2 bottles of hair color I intended to pick up yet. I want to while they are $5 a piece. I am happy I stuck to the budget. It feels good. I don't feel empty. I haven't used much up, still attempting to, come summer I should have some stuff used up.

Girl, I want to see a significant reduction in my stash by 12/31/10. So imma try to do whatever it takes to get me there.

I just found about 1/4 tube of Ion Reconstructor. (which I do like btw)

So.....after I finish up the Millennia Mud, I will move on to the Ion to use it up. For now, nothing will be a repurchase. Until alot of this stuff is Gone.

And No, I can't believe it is almost February.erplexed

*sighing sadly

I called today and Mark said the shipment was delayed by the manufacter 2 weeks.

Sooooo, Feb. 10 is now going to be like Feb. 21....

I am going to have my color put in next week with my relaxer. I tried to wait to steam it in, but I can't wait an extra 2 weeks. When I get my steamer on the 21 I'll be able to do another color for next month.

I am waiting.... Patiently.....

 

[JJamiah]

i have one more use of my honey hemp conditioner and then its done. i have 2 more bottles though.

i think my natural hair hates coconut oil. ive noticed it before but ignored it. my hair was so soft yesterday and then as soon as i applied the coconut oil for overnight my hair instantly dried up.

My sister said the same thing today! Wow

 

[chebaby]

^^^^^yep, it wasnt always like that though. i used to swear by coconut oil.

In my experience it does loosen texture. It made my hair soft too.
