Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I’m wearing a mix of wash n gos and buns right now. When my wash n go gets old and frizzy I put it in a bun.
Do you think taking a break from the wash n'gos, and going straight to bunning would be a good option for you? Ladies be about that bun life, and wear their hair down when they feel like it :) .

I did buns for YEARS - I’m ready to wear my hair out. And the wash n go doesn’t seem to be slowing my growth progress. My face just looks better with buns. Maybe I just need to find the right shape for my wash n go.
 
Y’all.

Something is seriously wrong with me.

I was watching PeggyPeg’s YouTube channel and she was using Duvolle Rendezvous (Titanium?)Professional Styling Iron to straighten her transitioning hair and she said it burned her. I thought to myself “yeah, that’s the one” in my TikTok voice and bought it (with a coupon code) :lachen:

Stop judging me, I can see that or feel free to judge, I can’t tell you what to do lmao.

I straightened a tiny piece of my kid’s hair. No I didn’t burn him, you’re terrible :spinning::drunk::lachen: I finger detangled really janky and straightened his product free hair on 360. 1 pass. I could have gotten the ends better but he really doesn’t like tugging on his hair but that’s a story for another day lol

This flat iron said “put some RESPECT on my name when you said it”.

I would have taken these knotless braids down to try this if they didn’t cost how much they cost :angeldevil:
Did anyone else think of when Penny was being burned with an iron as punishment on Good Times?
 
I didn't realize my 1 year was up and I needed to make a payment again! No wonder I couldn't post and see all the forums.

Either way, HEY YALL :p

I'm having a love hate relationship with my hair right now. I self relaxed a few weeks ago and some areas didn't take as good as others - and for the life of me I just want to cut it back to SL. I'm growing towards BSL but I know as soon as I cut my hair I'm going to miss my length. But at this point I just want my hair to be healthy.

Tonight I'm going to give it some TLC and see how I feel moving forward. I'm loving the silk elements line right now I'm currently using their shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner and heat protection spray.
 
I been having the itch to take my knotless braids down (they’re kinda long and weirdly they’re starting to feel heavy). I took one braid down in an easy to conceal spot above my right ear and now I feel better :lachen:I’m gonna have to wet that piece of hair so I can see where the natural hair begins and the relaxed hair ends.

Your hair fluctuations never fail to tickle me. :biggrin:
 
I forgot that castor oil has humectant properties. All of the moisture in the air today is now right into my hair lol. I don't mind it because I like my sets (braid and curl) kind of poofy anyways.
Very much so. I put in a little on my scalp and days later with the humidity, my hair was so soft and lush. I haven't been deep moisturizing with this system I'm using that requires it and it baffled me in a good way. I think I'll just deep condition with some black castor oil in it.
 
Okay so disregard this recommendation. :lol: I was so annoyed during my lap swim today because it just would not stay put. Idk if it was because my hair had a more slippery conditioner coating (I think I put less conditioner on during my Thursday swim) but I’m going to need to find a different cap.
 
Need to wash my hair today. Imma make it happen.

Im feeling better. Steriods got me acting like a crackhead but oh well. I can breath.

Imma do this hair mayneeeeeeeeeeee! Gonna clean my hair with Tangles and Beyond Thingamajiggy. Then use Nurcreations new irish moss henna treatment that has ambunu in it.yassss!! Then deep conditioner under my steamer babyyyyyyyyyyyyyy with something.... Thats all I got for now.


sounds like a plan.
 
why oh why do I try different foam wraps :lol: there is literally nothing better than nairobi, hands down. there is no need to try this other stuff. I tried the doux one and i think i'm going to return it. I wanted to like it, but it's just not as good to me. decent moisture and hold, but that hold doesn't compare to nairobi. if they ever stop making it, i think i will have to shave my head because i can't live without it.

another note: I am going to try a wash and go sometime soon. I haven't even made an attempt in a long time, but i decided after my last vacation that i no longer want to do my standard "vacation braids" shtick anymore, so i need to have the styling skills for a wash and go in my back pocket. i'm going to try out the aunt jackie's flaxseed gel first because i am determined to get a 1-product wash and go routine down. i don't have the patience for layering and cocktailing.
 
Ladies I need your help. I used Clairol natural instincts in blue black this weekend. I followed directions and used the conditioner afterwards. Now when I touch my hair to moisturize I have small pieces on my hands.

As a natural with pretty much virgin hair this is alarming. I just did the loc method with aloe juice, avocado oil and garnier cream. I’m not sure what else to do to stop my strands from snapping off when wet. If I remember correctly it sounds like it’s over moisturized. I need a protein dc I think

I would do an olaplex treatment. I didn’t realize how harsh box color can be on the hair until I switched over from it. I used to use that exact shade and now I use ion blue black—I think my hair is in better condition for it.

the olaplex no. 3 will probably stop your breakage after 1 or 2 uses. It’s just that good.
