Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Today I intended to do a LCF wash and go (leave-in, cream, foam), but accidentally ended up doing a CLF wash and go (inadvertently reversed the first two).

The foam gave great soft hold. However, my crown's roots still went undefined. (That's my trouble spot.)

I am thinking about my favorite product from my TWA days: As I Am Coconut Cowash. It had the curls in my TWA POPPIN'!

I wonder what it would do for my awkward-stage -length hair.
 
luving me said:
I think I have moisture over-load, I think the honey in tgin's honey mask and the high humidity here are the cause. Since I have no-lye relaxed low porosity hair that hates protein should I do a light protein treatment or just give up the honey hair mask for a while? I'm already planning not to dc in Sept but idk if that will correct the issue.

The best thing is to correct the moisture overload with at a mild protein treatment or reconstructor better yet. Aphogee 2 minute is a great one.
 
My hair actually feels awful. So dry and rough. Plaiting my hair to stretch it after washing just isn't for me. Stil plan to henna this weekend though. We'll see how it goes.
 
When someone recommends a curl activating gel to you, and you search the internet again and again for "reviews of Twisted Sister," not realizing it's "Twisted Sista" and it's NOT GOING TO COME UP FOR YOU.

So sick of seeing these images of heavy rock dudes with weird makeup wagging their tongues.

Okay. Now for "Twisted Sista . . ."
 
I'm attempting an undisturbed airdry of a wash n go. In the middle of dcing I agreed to accompany my aunt to church at 7pm tonight. I just have this feeling that someone or something is going to mess with my hair and cause frizz. Either she will let the window all the way down to get air on the ride there (wouldn't matter if i had the air conditioner on) or someone will have the nerve to touch my hair. I think I'll just bring a scarf along. I don't feel like diffusing.

It's really wet now but in two hours I think It will no longer be dripping wet.
 
I love seeing our hair! I'm so glad we've been able to see this movement toward super healthy, AA hair!

I just remember back in the day in high school seeing so much struggling, relaxed-within-an-inch-of-its-life hair on our heads. Now I get online and walk the streets and see stylish, relaxed, natural, lush, gorgeous, big, short, mid-length, long, uber-healthy-looking hair on our heads.

I'm in the Vitamin Shoppe to check out . . . well, vitamins.

I was reading the ingredients on the Aubrey Organics clarifying and detoxing poo when another natural is in the store in the hair care aisle. She's looking for henna color. I ask her about her hair. She tells me she used to be a product junkie, even traveled across the country to attend a natural hair event featuring Taliah Waajid. Then she says she now basically just uses shea butter and olive oil. But . . . the Soft and Beautiful Luxurious Leave-in is the most amazing thing she ever put on her head. I said, "What was so great about it." She said luxurious is the PERFECT word for it.

I've never heard of this product, and if it doesn't cost less than $4.00, it's invisible to me right now. :laugh: I keep telling myself that since her hair liked a few Cantu products (which my hair can't stand), that this Soft and Beautiful Luxurious Leave-in would be an epic fail for my hair.
 
I've had serious hand in hair syndrome lately. I need to get my act together. Hopefully wearing wigs from Sept-March will resolve this issue. I need to retain as much length as possible. I want to be in maintenance mode come this time next year.
 
I'm a little bothered right now. Dh said we were going to a party last night. I really didn't want to go but went with the flow. I decided to take out my twists he took a nap and never woke up! I feel like my twists could have lasted another week!

Is he a good, hard-working hubby? Was the nap needed? Does he treat you good? Does he cause you worry? Does your hair look okay?

(Just tryna provide perspective if it's apt.)
 
The side-eye my husband gave me as he wrapped saran wrap around my head! o_O

I couldn't let him know that the "conditioner" in my head is egg mixed with oil. I also couldn't let him know that the reason that's my "conditioner" is because someone posted a coupla videos on a hair forum about overnight hair growth and . . .

:look:
 
USPS has the worst shipping practices ever. You ship a Michigan bound package from Missouri to Ohio then to Pennsylvania and there's no expected delivery date because y'all keep bouncing it all over the place. Why? Just why do y'all have to send people's packages around the world in 80 days?! Y'all could've taken it to my aunt's and I could've driven to Cleveland to pick it up. At least I would have it before the return of Jesus.
 
I went for a quick visit back home over the weekend and my mom told me she needed more products (I just sent my cousins and sister some products). Her friend told her about qhemet and now she wants. :rolleyes:
I'll pick her some up during BF along with some CRN products. In the meantime, it looks like I'm sending another package of products this week. I think I have 3x 16 oz BRBC in my stash, I MIGHT send her one lol.
 
I'm not sure what's going on with my hair lately it feels dry and every wash day my hair is tangled like no tomorrow. I know I need to stop and pick up another wet brush since that seemed to work great but i'm not sure what else i'm missing.
