Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[morgandenae]

Found out my sister was tapping into my downstairs closet stash. Told her to ask next time, threw her a Tresemme' Naturals Conditioner, and transferred the rest upstairs

I don't mind sharing but I just need to maintain control of whats coming in and whats coming out. Otherwise she'll do irritating things like open a one Liter Giovanni Conditioner use half then open up another than use 1/3 of that upsetting every inch of my PJism. Like why. Had to transfer one to the other (pumping since it was too thick to pour ).

shea butter will always have a place in my heart. I just have to figure out when my hair needs it and use it sparingly.

I just realized that today marks my two year post relaxer anniversary.

I've been tempted to relax several times, but my husband and stylist have talked me out of it. Now, I can say I'm in love with my natural hair and I don't want to relax EVER again!

I bought the travel sizes of the Redken Curvaceous line for spiral curls. I can't wait to try it. I doubt that the curl gels/creams will do anything but it's going to be fun to play with some new products.

I had to force myself to wait until Friday. I can't let myself waste time playing in my hair during the week.

Didn't do my hair last night but plan on doing it asap after work I'm in need of a good wash and blow-dry. Plus I saw my mom picked up some new products yesterday so I can't wait to play in them

I started a new job last month and for the first time (in a very long time) have a few bw coworkers! One is rocking her natural hair (after removing her weave) this week and I so want to ask if she's a Niko cousin BUT this would too awkward in a professional setting, right? It hard enough being the newbie without geeking out about hair......right?

I couldn't resist it either, I still have no clue what it could be.

I have a confession: I have done jack-manure to my hair. I'm surprised I still have any hair attached to my head.

Does anybody still use the Denman brush? I used to have one. But finger detangling, wide tooth combs, and paddle brushes are not detangling the way i want to.

I still use mine. But I don't use it for everything. Only for styling. I finger detangle or use my soft paddle brush to detangle. Never my Denman. The Denman is way too rough for my hair... I only use when my hair is already detangled.

I use it every three or four times I prepoo. I use it after detangling with a wide tooth then finer tooth comb.

It's so hard to think about hair with all the things that's going on in the US right now. As the mom of three African American boys and the wife of an African American man, my everything hurts. I am angry at what is happening and afraid of what it means for my boys/husband. Ladies, pray over your husbands/sons.

I was just thinking this. I was thinking about how I need to do my "grooming" but all I really want to do is close my eyes and lay in a full bathtub for a long while.

I bought some at the African festival here last year, but I just bought some fabric from JoAnn Fabrics a couple of weeks ago. If you go to the quilting section (usually in the back) and find the batik fabrics, you can get some beauties. I wish I were at home. I'd post a picture of the three I got. They're really pretty.

Just ordered some camille naturals almond jai cream. I hope it works well. Im hoping for longer lasting definition and moisture Cantu is too light weight. Im still trying to find a good detangler.

Cleansed with Renpure and skipped the SM lo po conditioner to see if it made a difference. Followed up with the lo po leave in sealed with JBCO and some Hello Curly. My hair seems okay but something is missing. Maybe the rinse out makes more of a difference than I thought.

OMG MY FIRST NATURAL HAIR MEET UP IS TODAY!!!!! I feel like Im going to Disney World!

 

[curlyTisME]

Already plotting on my next style, I think I want the long sides wept cornrows like Queen B!

I sometimes feel like I'm writing to myself on the hair board.

It seems like there are about a good 10 people who actually comment on the hair board, lol.

Just realized that it has been two years since I BCed. Where did time go?

My wash and gos have been looking so good lately. My hair needs some shaping, but until I get more length I'll wait on that.

Sometimes when evaluating products I don't know if my techniques need work or if it is the product.

After doing a twistout with a lot of hair oil under the styler I find my hair took forever to dry and looked frizzyish.

Still figuring out how and what to use.

I started using Nairobi wrap and shine foam for my twistouts. It dries quickly and is soft with just enough hold to make it last at least 3 days.

Wigs are my new favorite thing! All I have to do is make sure my hair stays clean and moisturized.

@vevster @kodochax I ended up getting the Curlbox Natural It's my first time purchasing anything from there. This was one of those "impulse buys" for me. I hope the products are good.

 

[SlimPickinz]

It's my first time as well. If they're good I'll buy the next one, I like being surprised sometimes I'm trying to stay away from Instagram so i don't see what's in it before It gets here.

There is nothing like the feeling of a freshly washed clean moisturized scalp .

Flowers smell sweeter, food tastes better, life is grand

Using 3 conditioners at the same time had better been worth it
