Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Reading LHCF has really inspired me over the last week. I was getting frustrated at my wash and go attempts, and considering just flat ironing a bunch.

However, I am once again calm and have decided I'm going to try this. Wash and Con on Thursday evening after Water Bootcamp, and braid it up for a braid out. Then do the big wash/deep condition on Sunday and I'm going to use my curlformers for a roller set.
 
Pretty upset with my aunt who as said she would do ny hair and its been 3 days and every day its another excuse, but its okay I'm getting my hair done I just hate paying shop prices when I can get family discounts.
 
Finally!! I've perfected my twisting method.. It only took me about 30 minutes to twist my entire twist. It use to take me damn there 3 hours. smh

Here lately I've been feeling like getting a good trim up on my hair. It's been a while since I've had a good trim. I don't want to trim all progress but I also am tired of the varying ends. I want an even hemline which looks so much healthier. I go for my TU next week so I must make a decision before then.

divachyk...This is how I am feeling right now, too. Are you postponing your trim in hopes of reaching a particular length goal first?

I want to reach full WL by year end, but I also want blunt ends...NOW! I'm reeaally trying to stick it out til Dec. but every time I see a pretty, blunt hemline on this board, I want to reach for the scissors and my creaclip.

Anyway, your hair is beautiful, whether or not you opt for the trim.
 
thirsting for some devacare nopoo and one condition. My hurr gets so dry in the summer and this is the only thing that makes it behave
 
Had an older lady (mid to late 50s) tell me in the elevator of my office building that she liked my hair and had to "look into getting her hair like it" and she gave me the "I know it's a wig b/c I'm rockin a LF wig right now" look and nod. I just told her "thanks! $9.99 on Samsbeauty.com and it's only a halfie". She tapped her friend and was like "remember that website girl!" :lachen:

OMGee...Too flipping funny!
 
I looked at my hair for even longer today ( :rolleyes: ) and realized that I am only about 1.5 to 2 inches to BSL. So I don't think that I'm going to use the flat iron for the rest of the year. ( I hate to, but my mom makes me use it sometimes :perplexed ) It only causes detrimental results for my hair as it is. And stick to my overly simple routine and simple product list.
 
This Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie feels very sticky... Got it yesterday. It smells like candy which was fine at first, but now I don't want it anymore. It says with me. I've watched and read so many reviews, bad and good, I thought it would work for me. I really want it to work. I'm going to try it again doing a flat twist-out. Makes me feel even worse because I asked my cameraman to buy it for me. I wonder if we can take it back.
 
Drooling over longhairdon'tcare2011's long hair....makes me wanna blow-dry to see some length....but I can't I can't. Must stick to MY hair regimen and hair goals!
 
After wearing my old twistout hair in a puff all day I came home and immediately freed my hair as usual. So I'm standing in the kitchen with my hair all over the place and hubby walks in and pauses and then says, "I love your hair". And that's why I love him!
 
I wish I could find a good tutorial on how to bun short hair. Every vid I see is for people a good bit longer than me and their methods don't work on SL hair. Bleh! Time to experiment.

prospurr4 - thank you for the compliment and right back acha. I'm not really trying to reach a particular length. I'm BSL now and can almost, but not quite, claim MBL. My hesitation is I'm scissor phobic. But on the flip side, I'm tired of my hair not having the blunt hemline look that I'm use to having. Prior to LHCF, I trimmed every 12 weeks. I'm sure I was trimming away my progress but loved the blunt cut ends. I haven't had a good trim in well over a year since joining LHCF Feb 2010 and falling into the don't trim your progress mentality.
 
I should really moisturize and tie my hair down to sleep now...yeeeaaaahh *yawns and rubs eye* off to bed...just gonna sleep on the satin pillowcase like a mug.
 
Its official I will be going back to reg strength relaxers come Sept.

This means I am probably going to have to throw away the rest of my super strength.

I might just dilute it for the front since my front does not burn quickly
 
i just dry detangled my hair with coconut oil. my hair has been soft and moisturized all week, so it made the session very easy. i wanna wash my hair tonight, but i am so tired. guess i will have to do it in the morning. now i got all of this oil in my hair.
 
Wow... My hair really loves the scalp massage oils s_terry suggested... When I took my scarf off for work my hair looked awesome!

Truly random thought: I'm 12.5 weeks post, and about to put single braids in my hair. I wonder if I can stretch my hair for 3 more months for a total of a six month stretch. I wonder if that new Ion Keratin Kit thingy from Sally's will help me. Am I transitioning??:ohwell:
