Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I finally got to to order some braiding hair! Can't wait to install my chunky twists or faux locs and protective style for the rest of the year! I'm going to do so many styles with them that I can't do with my own hair right now in its short state. And hopefully I'll be apl or nearly apl by 2019 :cloud9: Why didn't I think to start wearing protective styles sooner?
 
I successfully had my hair in the same style for 4 days. Tied it up at night and in the morning I sprayed African braid spray and went on my way. A stranger called me fancy today haha. With my twisted updo, shades on and shimmer lol gloss. Little did he know that I just like having shades on to not make eye contact. I only had gloss on because my lips get dry, and I am lazy with my hair.

Earrings add a nice touch too lol, I don't leave the house without picking through hundreds of pairs of earrings first.

Eta: I got two car honks today
.:bdance:It may be because I'm less fat :look: 9lbs down. 29 more to go.

She is so disrespectful with all that hair flipping. :drool: Btw, she is only mbl or so. You could already look like that if you straightened your hair. Must be nice :cry: *goes back to day dreaming about being only apl*

Can't wait till I can install my protective style. I need a break from feeling bad about my hair's length and state for a good, long while. I'm all the way through with dealing with these negative feelings, so I'm taking a detour.

@FadingDelilah Why do you feel so bad? You have more then 5 inches. Hair grows especially when you're not looking hence your anticipated protective style. :giveheart: What's the longest your hair has been? When I had four inches of hair after BC I missed my long hair. You must be missing your once before longer hair.

Girlll... im just going crazy not being able to do anything with my hair. Its taken a huge toll on me... And looking at this forum and YouTube videos of long hair has only made things worse because it feels like I'm just forever waiting for my turn :( The longest my hair has ever been is apl. Which isn't impressive, but it seems like paradise to me right about now :rolleyes:

So I decided to just love my hair's length at every stage and make the most of it by doing cute styles to boost my self esteem and obsess less over length, but I can't style my hair no matter how hard I try/plan, and I started suddenly experiencing hair loss in the back of my head that has me so down and idk the cause. It makes even my twist outs (the only style I can do) look weird. I miss my full head of hair, not this thin wreck in the back I have right now. I feel devastated and like all my work is gone. Also, like I have no options with my hair again. Lastly, my hair grows extremely slow so getting even an inch takes forever :confused: do you see why I'm so happy to protective style? Lol. I need an emotional break :cry3:(rant over!)

Oh my God. This is a situation. This also sounds like me on the edge of my bed 3 years ago on 6/5/15. When I was thinning and had bald spots with see through hair and tragic ends. Well I told God what He said in his word about every hair on our head being numbered an'all. And I asked him to restore all the missing ones. Look at me now, slaying it. All Thanks to the Lord that cares so much even though I'ma /was a filthy mouthed sinner umoung other stuff, but i digress....He is so good. Jesus forever!!

So take your lil self in a corner somewhere and pray then come back with a testimony! I have one! Oh, did I ever tell you that my hair has been ripped out TWICE! Both times by hood rats. Hence why I don't where my hair out:look:. Look at my hair now. Longer than most weave HALLA!!

:bighug:

Eta. Faith is what's needed here.

I wasn't trying to be "right", but the truth is Faith gives God the glory when that thing you've hoped for happens. So if I were you I'd get real excited for what's going to happen. Don't...
doubt
noun
  1. 1.
    a feeling of uncertainty or lack of conviction.
Ok ok I'm done. I get hyped because it's Trueeee I've seen it!

My hair growth is coming along nicely. My hair is finally at a length where I can use thick conditioner, grease, gel and activator to lay it down so that it does not shrink up that bad. I can't wait to see where my hair is come New Year's Eve because I have a very big and important party to attend and I want to look my best. That's 6 months from now so that's plenty of time to baby my hair and achieve significant growth.
 
I went to a Male Revue last night and one of the dancers pulled my hair. That's the second time that has happened, another dancer did that last month as well. I wasn't even upset about it. :giggle:

On another note, I've been working out and drinking plant based protein shakes. My hair is growing faster and stronger.
