Wearing my first ever wet bun right now.
Thought I'd have plenty of time to do a dc and airdry for an hour before I had to pick up the kiddo from a meeting, but time got away from me.
I barley had time to quickly put my leave-ins on, throw in a quick bun and hit the road.

I feel so bad for my mom. She was wearing weaves to help her grow her hair out during the awkward stage. Takes the weave out, and her thinning hair got so much worse.
In her words, she said she looked like the lady who didn't have that much hair trying to hold onto the last strands
So she went from SL to a boy cut, and its soooo thin on the top. She is so upset and self concious about it, and I feel so bad for her. HOWEVER, she was getting color, relaxer, and a sew-in put in on the same day for every install
Needless to say, she went out and puchased the Nioxin system with the foaming scalp treatment to start it off. I plan on making her a batch of Nonie 's scalp mix that she used to help back in '04.
Hopefully this will help. It hurts me to see her like this, because I don't want my hair to thin like hers. I'm determined not to go through that!
But last night on my date, he ran his fingers through (tried to anyways) and said my hair is so damn THICK! I snarled at him, but on the inside I was doing the cabbage patch

sunnieb - did your wet bun turn out nice?
Curlybeauty - I'm sorry to hear this about your mom. My mom wears wigs 100% of the time. I cannot tell you the last time I've seen my mom's real hair. She tells me it has thinned really bad but she LOVES her wigs so I don't think she's too much worried about it. My mom use to abuse her hair with color, sew-ins, glue-ins, etc. Hopefully your mom can recover. Congrats on the touchy feely date.I feel so bad for my mom.

Okay ladies, I don't mean to sound all extra like those random my hair got cut against my will threads but real talk, I'm going through withdrawals. I feel like I can't get it to do nothing I want it to do. ETA: I know my hair looks and feels better but......
In other news, dh's birthday was last week and we had a great time. Our anniversary is this week and we hope to have another great time.
@Nix08 - remind me, when is your anniversary? Our is 10 Aug (13 years).

Yeah. I tried to tell her, but you know when the person with a license says it's cool, then lil ol' me doesn't know anything
But I will talk smack about it later when we get her back on track.
And yeah, I was pissed about my hair on our first date cause I didn't want to flat iron it and I was REALLY short on time
NG coming in fierce but he still told me I was beautiful

Um...nope....
It wouldn't hold all the way and kept flopping out. I know I can do better if I take my time and do it right.I think @sunnieb should know better than to tell us about her first ever wet bun and not also show it to us...pics
It's funny, I didn't even think about taking a picture. I was rushing out the door. Even when I posted, I was sitting in my car waiting for the kiddo.
I'm home now and couldn't wait to take it down and airdry properly. I'll be sure to take a pic next time.

sunnieb - wet buns (in which I ABSOLUTELY don't do any more because it didn't work for me) made my scalp itch. I guess it was the dampness of the hair on my scalp all day. During the time I was damp bunning, I didn't understand that I had low porosity hair. So, by the end of the day, the middle of my bun was still very damp. Yuck! Not for me.

You're convincing me that I have low porosity hair.
What are some things that work in favor of this hair type? divachyk ?
for a job interview before school starts back. So hopefully this straightening job won't be in vain.

I always saw a really light strand of hair on my dd's head. I could never find it again. Well today while in Pathmark I saw it and took a piece off and lo and behold it was blond. It was rather shocking to see it too, imagine a course piece of blond hair, no silkiness in sight.

@Curlybeauty - Have I mentioned MO Glimmer Shine Spray to you? It's not that cheap but works (for me) when I want to have super duper extra bling. Smells good too. I purchased mine from ebay or amazon sometime ago (before joining LHCF). I think charmtreese also uses this spray. She might be able to chime in to give you another opinion on if it generates good bling.
