Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[GettingKinky]

Sounds like a good plan. Also, maybe it's time to clarify?
I've had my Grapeseed oil for YEARSSSS with no problems (I understand about shelf life though). Are the DB products old?

I hadn't thought about clarifying. That's a good idea. The DB products aren't old. But I have left the oil open sometimes so maybe that accelerated the aging.

Thank you @kanozas and @MzSwift

I ordered some Kenra just because Ulta had it on sale. This used to be my down boo back in the day thanks to @divachyk Maybe I'll put it back in rotation, alternating with that and Joico for DCs.

Happy birthday @princess_z and @tashboog

Ugh babyliss nano titanium flat irons just don't straighten my hair even at 410. I'm going back to the stove.

Have you tried to rollerset then blow-dry or flat iron?

My grapeseed oil was definitely not right. I just opened a new container today and it's so much smoother and the color is lighter. Hopefully this is the end of my sticky hair.

I washed my braids and my scalp feels sooo good!!! I used kinky curly shampoo as my cleanser, Deva curl conditioner cleanser as my "DC", and then kinky curly knot today as my leave-in. It took me no time to do my hair.

It never fails.... Every time I get my hair straightened it rains. They are calling for rain all this week.

Yep..... back to roller sets I go!

 

[Sharpened]

I want to try using hair sticks, the ones with the tassels on the broad ends. Off to search...

 

[KinksAndInk]

My hair is not properly detangled and she is not happy.

I don't feel like rollersetting at the moment

I love hair sticks. Can't wait till all of my hair is long enough.

@SuchaLady, ahhhh, Kenra brings back memories. I am pretty sure I still have a liter or two left.

I know lol. I'm transitioning....supposed to highlight my hair, rollerset and blowdry, trim...eventually treat the transitioning hair with Brazilian....lazy as hell! LOL. Ayyyy. I figure that, if I don't start something, I'm screwed. The back of my ponytailed hair is going to dredloc soon haha. I just keep brushing the top and sides and bunning.

But question: With your texture, have you ever done it and gotten straight results?

 

[WakandanPrincess]

Every time I run my fingers through my hair, I gets lots of pieces in my fingers. I've tried protein treatments, moisturizing deep conditioners, and nothing seems to help. This is frustrating.

Kenra is still part of my standard rotation. I started using it 5 years ago and I've seen no reason to replace it.

Actually I used to be a straight haired natural and would press and curl my hair every 3-4 weeks. my hair was very thick back then. I could only get it straight like I wanted with pressing oil though. it's weird because I used the same products when I do others hair but when I do mine it's puffy

I love how my hair looks from the overnight henna/green tea treatment I did this past Saturday...so glossy and burgundy

 

[WakandanPrincess]

My hair is shedding just watching these election results. I'm stressed so my hair is stressed.

But have you tried Joico Moisture Recovery Balm? That's some good stuff. Both Kenra & Joico are great products though.

I haven't. But I'm thinking of trying the Joico protein conditioner.

Sams Beauty sent me my shipping confirmation. love it

 

[Guinan]

I am so heartbroken over this election. I don't feel like doing anything...but I'm gonna. Tonight I plan on oiling my scalp with WGHO.

Joico K Pak is great! Smells like bananas. We used to use it the salon I worked at in the 90's. I use it now as my mid step protein during relaxers.

 

[rileypak]

It's been a rough day
I'm off to buy a wig and some hair products

Ok. I'm going to get the k-pak to replace AO GPB in my routine. If I like that I may consider trying the moisture recovery when I run out of Kenra.
