Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[ItsMeLilLucky]

I wash going to wash my hair tomorrow but I don't want to mess my press-on nails up! My hair looks fine; it just feels dry. I dunno what to do!

Put gloves on! Hopefully they won't get too wet, if they get wet at all.

Has anyone tried this? Seems like socks would be drying but her hair looks great.

I tried doing a braid out. Whoo chile i need not to bother trying that again any time soon! Back in the bun it goes!

I was thinking of trying gloves. But I remember trying gloves years ago and not liking how they felt.

I may just have to cross my fingers and go for it

Let me go back and look at the technique again bc I was too busy over her hair.

I love heatless curls! And this method seems to keep the hair lengthened. I used to like to try bantu knots but they really curl up the hair and a single top knot doesn't give this much definition.

I successfully clarified my hair today.
With high porosity hair it's always a challenge to get the hair cleaned/excess products/buildup removed without matting up the hair. I knew it was time to clarify because my hair has been feeling a bit dull and I could actually see buildup on it looking closely up to the light. I've been going over and over in my head, how I would go about clarifying my hair all week long. And this is what I did:

I decided to grab my old friend Aussie Volume shampoo. I did a pre-poo with warmed olive oil, then shampooed thoroughly 1x, then immediately co-wash with VO5 conditioner. Then the rest as usual. I could immediately feel the difference with the way my regular conditioners absorbed in the shower. It went well and no nightmare tangle session! Currently sitting with my moisture DC under a plastic shower cap and a green face mask.
Self-care Sundays are the best!

another successful wash day! I did clarify this week. Next week I will finish up my blueberry hair mask from 4bellanaturale. I will be using SSI banana brulee mask starting next sunday. I want to see how it compares to sprouted curlies banana cream dc, which I already love along with their peachy honey butter melt mask. That peachy honey butter mask is the truth! and the scent is to die for!

I hate the fact my hair is uneven, I want to do a fresh cut and start strong this year but I really don't trust anyone to cut it.

Story of my life.

I finally washed my hair lol. Blowdried it too. I was gonna do some crochet braids but I changed my mind and am in the process of doing some short twists. Guess this is gonna be my life until I figure out what to do until the summer. Summer time is when I tend to wear my hair out the most, but idk this summer. I really haven't felt like touching my hair lately. It's been hiding under wigs or crochet braids.

You probably like me lol I like cornrow outs, but not braid outs. They look funny on me.

 

[Napp]

Thinking of washing bi weekly instead of weekly but I moisturize daily so idk how that will pan out

Another successful wash day and my nails didn't budge!!!

My hair seems too fine for braid outs

That sucks

I dont like these invisible locs/braids.

Maybe they will grow on me as they loosen up.

When you want to do all the things (and nothing) to your hair smh. I want to prepare some henna tonight to do my hair this weekend. I also want to blow out and check/ trim my ends on straight hair since the last cut was on coily. The weather isn't great (wet) right now so a decision has been made for me.

 

[GGsKin]

Also I think my hair was too wet when I added lotion as leave-in before my gel this week because I can see product residue and its only day 3. I used the exact products after washing last week and my hair didn't flake at all. The difference is last week I added the lotion after a day or two, rather than on wash day.

My depression is leaving me with no motivation to take care of my (colored) hair. I am so sad.

I’m sorry you aren’t feeling well.

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but P&G is acquiring Mielle Organics for an unknown sum. Just saw it mentioned on Twitter

My big tub of deep conditioner arrived. Im trying to see if a dedicated DC works better than make shift DC

 

[GettingKinky]

I think my puff looks better if I wear it more towards the back of my head rather than on top of my head. And I like my puff better than my bun.

 

[MzSwift]

OK, this is funny! This cannot be real...

 

[GGsKin]

Lol, I saw this. It was the comments that got me.

 

[Prettymetty]

I’m doing an aloe vera and coconut oil overnight treatment. Then I’ll shampoo and do my first diy blowout of the year.

 

[Plushottie]

I really hate how depression robs you of your essence and energy. All these nice products but no energy to beautify.
