Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Going to do everything in my power to make my perm rod set last until Saturday. That's the day I go to the job fair for the school system.
 
Did a curlformer set with only the regular size today and that's not gonna happen again for a while. It took longer and I think my crown much prefers the larger more gentle barrel curlformers.
 
I'm thinking about just switching bag to using Dominican products. I like the fact that a lot of the treatments have a lot of good ingredients in them and they don't cost an arm and a leg.

Frankly I'm not concerned with silicone and stuff anymore at this point. I switch back and forth.
 
My hair looks a mess right now but it's so soft lol. The weather is so unpredictable. Didn't expect to be hot and sweating my hair out. I'll probably cowash on Wednesday night since I don't work tomorrow and want to be lazy for the day
 
I was supposed to put marley twists in my hair yesterday but fell asleep and didn't wake up until 10 p.m. SMH!

To start them tonight or not, is the question?!
 
After returning from my little break away, I want to shampoo my hair so I can have a relaxed DC overnight but I am so tired. Need to dust my ends as well.
 
Trying a new nightly routine from you tube. Moisturizing sections with a moisture butter, twisting them and then lightly misting them with a moisture mist. Then in the morning, using oil on my fingers to take down.
 
My WnG looks good today! I did it with my new Xtreme gel and I love it! I'd say it's slightly lighter hold than Ecostyler but gives definition and allows me to use a leave-in. Hair is also shiny. Never used to happen with Eco. Thanks so much for pointing me to it!

I also DCed with Africa's best mayonnaise and remembered why I never stayed consistent with it. I love how soft my hair feels, but it's just not enough protein for me. I need something stronger.
 
Sigh. I really want to take out these box braids. But i think this is the last time I'll self-install. My hair is just too long and thick, its time consuming. I want to take them out tomorrow but i dont have money to buy product.
Speaking of product im on the hunt for a new moisturizer and twist cream. I cant *** with qhemet anymore. I love the amla cream but its a severe handicap in that it makes my hair absorb to much environmental moisture and poof. For the past 2 years ive been unable to wear outstyles. I feel ugly. My hair is too long to be stuck in twists and buns all the time against my will. Im going to check out the As i Am line,particularly the double buttercream and twisting cream.
 
My braid out this morning was fabulous. It is now raining. the walk to my car is going to kill my hair which means I will have to rebraid it tonight. I have an umbrella but the moisture is just going to have its way with my hair.

I'm looking forward to getting my out in seneglese twists for my vaction coming up in June put I am not looking forward to paying for it. DD and I are bouth getting an install its going to be a grip.
 
I am still loving my daily wash n go then wet/damp bun routine. I'm currently using Honey's Handmade cherry almond tapioca cleansing cowash (not a repurchase) and I'll switch to As I Am coconut cowash when it's gone which will probably be the end of the week and use 1 jar of that before I switch to another Honey's Handmade cowash.
