Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[I Am So Blessed]

While shopping in the Dollar General the other day. A black man stops me an and asks "who did that for you". My hair? "I did, its just twists pinned together". He said "It looks nice and i thouht it was dreads". Thats a nice complement because I love locs. He was also taken aback by my overly bubbly demeanor. Which I understand.

I haven't seen my Sister's hair in so long. How long is she planing to wear that raggedy looking wig? I braided her hair two months ago. It was nice and about 7inches high of afro. She could easily wear her own. This wig is twisted, matted, and plain awful and needs to be caught and locked away at the zoo. I said "I got a brown paper bag in my closet, you mind as well put it on" And I meant every word.

Some of y'all sleeping on activator.

Last week at the BBQ I told my aunt (age 60 something) about activator, she felt my hair and was shook. The softness is undeniable. She's now going to try it. She said "well you learn something new every day". Me...im sitting there at the bench across looking at her in amazement thinking "but I've seen you with a Jheri Curl!! How could you NOT KNOW?"

Thanks @I Am So Blessed is it combable?

 

[FadingDelilah]

I'm glad you've owned up to your old ways and changed since then @I Am So Blessed

Thanks @I Am So Blessed is it combable?

Its about 31% more combable than other "Marley hair". Don't ask how I came up with 31%. Thats my take on it.

Lol haha that was years ago. They both were temporary moments of envy for sure. You're never the same person after you leave the school system. LOL!

I believe now I am about building up not tearing down. Thank God.

All of these "my hair is growing posts" and I'm still struggling along at 1/3 of an inch per month, if that. My top layers still stretch to ear length and I chopped 1.5 years ago.

How does your hair feel? Is it well moisturized and protein balanced?

Ok, time to finish detangling other side of head. Takes two days to detangle now??

Yes. My hairs health and moisture levels are not an issue. It just grows like a snail. Styling and growth are my two biggest barriers right now.

I just prepood and washed my hair. (Extentioniste and Curl Ideal) Sadly, I'm already planning out my next wash. I want to use my samples of Aura Botanica shampoo and conditioner. It's the natural line by Kerastase. You know I'll post my review too

Hubby says he likes the versatility of natural hair. He loves my curls, and he loves my hair when straight.

Back to considering being a straight haired natural.

I wonder if incorporating keratin treatments would help.

 

[I Am So Blessed]

Oh yes, I see now. I found a better hair suggestion to your previous question. ISIS DEFINITION AFRI NAPURAL BRAID HAIR.

Look at the reviews it's supper soft and natural looking and you get a lot in one pack. I am getting my hands on that (I probably won't use it) I'm a hoarder! The pile of kinky hair i have in my closet is mad crazy. All brands too....I will mail you some if you like.

I really really really need to stick with the staples and NEVER venture off.

My non negotiable ingredients have to stay that way no matter what progress, rave or "aha" another hair sis is having.

The feeling I get once I'm done detangling is fabulous! Oh my gosh! These strands just want to mangle and dance with each other!
