Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

She likes it like that. The change is from 3c to a 3b.

She said it didn't matter if she missed a spot because her hair was about the same with or without the texturizer. So I was wondering why have it at all.

Meh. If I want bigger curls, I just do a braid out or a twist out. :look:
 
I like her big curls! ...oh well she just said what she had in that last video is a braid out. What did I say?

I know I'd screw that texturizer up. I'd want just slightly bigger curls and then end up with hair that looked just like it did when I had it relaxed before.

I like her hair too! Since her video is a beauty channel, she takes good care of her hair in my opinion. When she did the texturizer, the freshly done new growth looked drier to me than the rest of the hair.

I agree with you though, she could just do a braid out or twist out to get the hair she wants. Personally I like her hair but her natural hair seems even better and more healthy so it seems like she's breaking down her hair's bonds unnecessarily.
 
Ugh, shrinkage really pisses me off. It's the only thing I hate about my hair. My hair is almost BSL (Or it might even be bsl now, I haven't done a length check in ages) so why the heck is it all the way at my neck when fully dry and only using conditioner? And I don't wanna have to stretch it out with heat all the time but I wanna SEE my length! *cries*

Felt good to get that out, at least.
 
I am COMPLETELY bored with my hair. I want to go to a salon to get a cute style so bad but I'm constantly scared that they are either going to cut too much hair, or going to do something traumatic to me, or it all goes well & I damage it on my own in attempts to wear my fly hair out too often. I can't win!! This protective styling is for the birds. :(

Thats the nature of curly hair.
 
I never understand the complaints of shrinkage. there are plenty of styles that stretch our hair without fear of heat damage that can make for big hair/length...imo :look:
 
Finally washed and conditioned my hair, it feels so good right now. I thought I'd have to condition for hours and use two different conditioners because of all the chlorine in my hair; I was smelling the chlorine during the first rinse. Everything turned out like how it would if I was washing my hair normally. Now I'm air-drying in a bun to have pretty curls with hold tomorrow, YAY! :grin:

yeah!!!

Take a pic I want to see the curls
 
And when I say use heat to stretch it out I don't mean straightening, I mean pulling on the hair and blowing the roots to stretch out the curl.

And why am I still awake?? I have to wake up for work in less than 5 hours.

I am moving next week and packing ... why do I have an 18 gallon bin full of ayurvedic powders, herbs, oils and hair candy? I have not packed a single conditioner, shampoo, gel, etc. ... and there are more oils in the bathroom cabinet and refrigerator :look:
 
i just spent probably 2 hours putting some box braids in... and I'm nowhere near finished. And I just started taking them out...

I think I will leave the front row, cornrowed a few inches back, in and leave the rest curly... my arms hurt too much to finish.
 
I have been doing braidouts and twistouts for years, so why didn't it ever occur to me to not braid all the way to the end before putting on my perm rod until the other day. One of the struggles I have had with this style is how tangled the very ends of my hair can get when I take it a loose the next day. Now that issue is resolved with ends in tact, I just add a little bit of leave in and oil to the ends before rolling them and I am good to go.
 
I'm trying to stay on the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' and 'keep it simple, stupid' train, but I want to try Fantasia IC gel on my hair. I probably won't, though, because I'm just wary of gels in my hair.
 
I dc'd in the middle of the week last week so I am going to keep my bun. Hopefully I will have a job interview to go on soon enough that will make me have to do something to my hair. I am thankful for my job but I cant deal with these people. :nono:
 
I once posted in a thread and a poster mentioned something about gel ponytail holders. I am interested in some now but I dont feel like going back to the thread to see where she got them from :/
