Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Oh, my GOODNESS some of the scent descriptions by this Etsy vendor (scroll all the way to the bottom) almost make me salivate!!!

https://www.etsy.com/listing/176022384/sweet-curls-crazy-curly-hard-hold-elixir?ref=also_bought

Examples:

*NEW* Tranquil Waters - Clean, calming, beautiful water scent. Not a salty ocean type, but a crystal blue water scent that soothes the soul. Very nicely paired with spa type fragrances. Top notes of watery & fresh ozone accord, lemongrass, mandarin zest, & verbena. Mid notes of leafy Greens, fresh Rose, melon, lily & ylang-ylang. Dry notes of rosewood & musk.

Tropical White Musk - Warm and mysterious blend of musk, lily, ylang ylang and amber that come together with peach, oakmoss and a bit of the tropics.

Awapuhi: Intensely "fresh and clean* smelling with delicate exotic floral notes, the Awapuhi ginger flower originated in India and made its way to the Hawaiian Islands. It has a long history of being the shampoo flower and is prevalent in salon shampoos. Wonderful scent, particularly for soaps and hair products.

Sweetgrass Fragrance Oil - Sweetgrass fragrance oil is a fresh, clean unisex scent with the perfect green notes. Not "perfume-y" & absolutely fabulous OOB. It's like standing in a field of grass (but not that sharp green lawn grass).

Downpour - A delicate spray of ozone gently infused with a floral blend of lily of the valley, white jasmine & geranium mixed with citrus blends of orange and lemon kissed by hints of musk. Our "Downpour" is the essence of refreshing, clean & relaxing. ~Pier 1 Type~

Nearly Nude - An upscale, sophisticated powdery fresh scent. NOT your typical baby powder scent! Mysterious and sensual with a sparkling citrus and berry top-note, floral heart of rose, geranium and neroli, dusted with a patchouli, cedary and powdery vanilla base.

Lavender Apples and Oak - Warm, inviting fragrance oil that has been blended to perfection, with soft, lovely lavender & juicy apples.

Mediterranean Fig Fragrance- Pure essence of Mediterranean Italian Fig sun baked & bursting with fragrance! Earthy essence & oh so sensual.

Coco-Beach Baby: **AKA Coconut Milk & Peaches** Uplifting blend of juicy ripe peaches and fresh coconut with hints of sweet milk..

Yeah Mon! Fragrance: Imagine yourself on a Jamaican Beach with the sun and surf. Incredibly yummy blend of coconut, pineapple and something special, this one is a fruity tropical hit for all!

I just need 1-2 inches to get me to a point where I'd be comfortable actually claiming waist length. Hoping to get there by the end of October at least. I need to fix my diet, increase my water intake, exercise, get back to drinking my bamboo tea and taking my vitamins. Looking at that list, I've done nothing but breathe lol. My hair grows so much faster when I treat my body right. Lately I haven't been doing that.

:laugh:

Thanks, PJaye!

No worries: I'm only on there to communicate with Miss Kane for benevolent reasons. I used a husband-provided-purchasing pass to purchase with her, and I also got a silk scarf from a vendor (really needed it). Other than that, Etsy has not really tempted me. It's Komaza and Amika and Oyin and Bekura and Qhemet and HairVeda and . . . that tempt me!

Now if anyone has the idea of GIFTING an on-a-no-buy sister with one of those scents . . . :look:

I have a family full of rabid PJs whose addictions I take full responsibility for (one texted me earlier that she tasted the scrub I sent her...SMH). I've since learned my lesson and am trying to talk you off the ledge.:lol:

:laugh: at the BOLDED!

And I truly appreciate it. :sneakyhug: I desperately, DESPERATELY need to stay on this cliff and NOT go over the ledge. I have EVERY receipt I've spent in the last 12 months, and just NO! There can be no escalation. :naughty:

And you're right: I don't want to increase PJism at this forum, especially when I'm working to myself spend less and less.

ETA: I did ask a vendor to consider offering LHCF members a code. She said yes. Once she does, I'll post it. But you can't really fall into PJism with her products. At least I dont' THINK! :look:

This is why I left out of Lush tasting soap yesterday :cry:
I'm so weak! They smelled soooo good! Pica is the devil!
 
I need a wig or some kind of protective style asap. I'm so bored with my hair. Besides washing and deep conditioning, I really don't want to do anything else with it. I just did my last set of mini twists after 4 attempts. I'm so frustrated..no matter what technique, the size I make them, the product I use...they just won't be great...sigh. I need to hide my hair for a little while.
 
I'm going to do better checking in for hair challenges next year. I've narrowed it down to 5, if all 5 are started up for the new year. I'm also vowing to take more pics of my progress, at least once a quarter. I'm going to rollerset for Christmas so I'll make sure to take pics and that will be my starting pic for all challenges. I also need to make a length check shirt. I'll probably be lazy and use a striped shirt if I can find one that has lines 1 inch apart.

That's not lazy, that's resourceful. I did the same thing. Where is that shirt?
