I finally washed my dirty ass hair. I had help. My boo thang made sure it got really clean. Then I deep conditioned with Masquintense and ironed it. I’m looking kinda cute right now

I tried it and my curls are super tight, it's extremely short
. I failed at stretching so I just brushed it out into a bun.

I get it. It took me months to get used to the way my wash n go looks. But it’s the only out style that works with my exercise schedule. I was also thinking about relaxing again, but I decide to give this hairstyle a serious attempt. I started going on the curly sites for ww, and got a Deva cut, both helped a lot.

I just massaged my scalp with monistat and avocado oil. Then I inverted for a quick minute. My longest layer is almost waist length. I need about another inch. Waist by December is within my reach. I plan on trimming at least once before then too.

Should I buy more of my now beloved SM conditioner or should I force myself to use up my 1 liter bottle of Kenra and my 1 liter bottle of Deva decadence? Which is more important, my hair happiness or my wallet happinesss?

I used to love the Kenra and I haven’t even tried the Deva Decadance yet. I feel like if I but more SM I’ll never even try the Deva.

I Am So Blessed
I'm easy going.
I finally washed my hair after 5 or six weeks! Now I don't have to worry about walking past someone wondering if they smell my hair. To my defense I litterally had no time to sit down and detangle before washing, so that meant NO WASHING.
Today I had to leave the house in a hurry with conditioner and a plastic bag on my head. Got back home 5 hours later to continue my wash day.

Last month I made 4 years natural. I bought a pair of sharp scissors. I hope to do an extensive search and destroy tomorrow if I have a few hours on my hands.

i would buy more sm because i know it works but experiment with the other dc's just to get rid of them ( try them and if i don't like make concoctions out of them).

One way to use up conditioners I don't like is to stretch the prefered conditioner with them. That's how I used up many of my stash last year. Mix 3:1 with the prefered condish as the main part.

Have you tried regular soap bars on the ground? There's a lot of natural ones in Whole Foods and similar stores. Frankly they seem the same or very alike to me.

I still love squish to condish, but it definitely works better with SM conditioner than with Kenra conditioner. I don’t know if it’s the ingredients or because SM is much thicker.

Good.
Or give them away to make room for products that you want. This assumes that you can't return said product, which is always my first choice

Ya'll aint never experiened the level of struggledom my hair has put me through. Privately and in public. 
I won't go into detail.
Oh, but I did notice that the top of my head now is at shoulder length, and the rest (that hasn't fallen out) is past it. I will never cut all my hair off again. took too long. But I am happy

I want to self trim without relying on having my hair on a straight state so bad. I hate uneven ends (did that before), so I want a trim but without butchering the shape. I am still recovering from heat damage by staying off the flat iron and wearing my hair in a curly state all the time. I do not want to risk making the damaged areas even worst.
I was thinking of maybe attempting Naptural85's bolwdry trim method:
but her hair is so even already, which makes me doubt if it would work for me as well.
