Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Bette Davis Eyes]

My little one talks in his sleep and it’s the cutest thing. He’s so serious in his conversation lol.

I massaged my scalp with peppermint oil and the ends with coconut oil. I’ll shampoo it in the morning

What did he say? I thought he carried Deva in his salon.

He does. I've noticed they'll use it more on type 2 hair though. They seem to use AG, Briogeo and NYC Curls on Type 3 and 4 hair. Random observation.

I'm curious what he said too.

For the ladies that have extra-large satin bonnets, where did you get yours? I need an extra-large one so that my twist outs and wash and gos last longer. I was looking on etsy and amazon. If you could provide an exact link to it, that would be even better.

I shampood with Ion Keratin shampoo mixed with garnier sleek shot then deep conditioned under the dryer with Keracare Humecto. Next I added Chi silk infusion and blow dried on high. It’s time to straighten and trim. Today is a beautifying day

I don't use the big bonnets but I use these large scarves that I tie on either without tucking the tail or just loosely tucking the tail after it's tied on. Works like a big bonnet only it's more adjustable for my hair style. HTH!

What I love about Alikay's Black shampoo is that is leaves my cuticle so smooth and my hair and scalp clean.... You can't beat that.

When I use Mo's shampoo, my hair feels rough.......

Time to bust out suave clarifying shampoo

Plan on taking my hair care seriously this year. I stopped caring about 3 years ago. But I’m back on. My last relaxer was mid-June and I took down my sew in today and I have 3.5 inches of new growth which means I’m getting 0.5 inches a month . This is exciting for me as a slow grower (0.3in/month). Idk what I did? But since June I’ve been in sew ins and braids but that should effect retention not growth???? I’m planning to relax next week with my Mizani Butter blends that I had to get from NYC (got two giant tubs).
Plan for this year-
Cornrow my hair and wear a wig
Oil my scalp daily with my mix (wild growth, castor, mane choice oil, olive oil, peppermint oil, been oil, hibiscus oil)
Wash my hair once a month. Sounds gross but I think it helped with my last sew in to avoid manipulation me matting
Take my vitamins
Keep drinking water
Hard protein treatment and deep condition once a month
Aloe Vera/scurl spritz daily
Vibrating scalp massager daily

hoping to get past my bra strap length plateau and finally make it waist length

It’s a weird length. I’m debating the same thing. Short hair is so sexy to me now.

....And finished, after a night on hiatas.

I think I just like to shave it all off to watch how fast my hair grows back lol

My brain wants me to like The Mane Choice but my hair simply doesn't. Think I'm finally accepting that lol.

I wanted to like the 24 Karat Twisting Gel. I read so many reviews from people saying their twistouts looked so great with it, but I really didn't like the way my twistouts looked with it.

 

[Prettymetty]

Just the name alone made me want to buy a case. I used the tester bottle (at Target) and although the smell was nice it had a sticky consistency and I had a few strands break off while applying. It was like massaging glue into my ends. I really wanted it to work for me though.

They just smell very chemical like for me. The only one I ever liked is the braidout glaze. It gives shine and hold.

I tried for a wng and it was a big fat no. I love the brand on my oldest. Like it's one of the few that worked extremely well for her but I hate buying a bunch of different things for everyone in the house.

Folks think its weird my toddler stays at home.
