Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Today, I let my hair drip completely dry before detangling it and I lost three hairs. I stood in my bathroom thinking, this has never happened before. It was actually hard to resist combing through my hair to straightening it out while it dries. But I am hooked, I know I got this tip on LHCF and for that I am grateful.
 
Gonna nap and then oil pre-poo/dry detangle, wash, and put in big twists to stretch for my small-medium twists I'll put in tomorrow. :) Life is throwing me curveballs and messing with my nerves this week. My hair routine relaxes me.
 
sooo, i feel like my hair doesn't do well if i manipulate it much while it's wet. detangling wet is out of the question, unless it's slipped with EVOO and coconut oil beforehand.

i worry about matting, so I think i'll stick with top-knot ballerina buns and low-manipulation french rolls. i'm heading back to school next week, so i'll have to budget hair time--can't spend an entire Saturday working on my DC!!
 
I hit 2 years relaxer free in September and I have basically reached my goal........I want more hair. I may be one of those people who is always unsatisfied after attaining hair goals.
 
1. people on this board have BEAUTIFUL hair. I am salivating at everyone's avatars and siggies.

2. I am addicted to this new Silk Dreams hair care line. I even had a dream about it. I am ashamed to say this but the products smelled really good and I did try eating it um... it does taste sweet :look: I am so embarrassed. omg I'm still thinking about them... Le sigh... going to the website right now and fantasize.

3. My hair is so uneven but I don't want to cut it. It's so soft and purty with all the new stuff I've been using. Soon I'll try using bar soap again (Dr. Bronners, goat soap at Sunflower Market, etc), now that I'm actively staying away from cones.

4. C'mon, no one else is using 3" rollers for wet setting besides me and Albanye? Get outta here! Green rollers larger than coke cans are the business! :lol:

5. I want some dredlock extensions like Dsylla but I don't know anyone that knows how to do it out here *sad puppy dog face*

I am DYING to dye my hair black but I'm trying to resist. I promised myself I'd lay off the dye for at least six months. I think I'm a hair dye addict WTF.

Also, this is just a thought but anyone feel free to answer it for me if you want:
You see, 'baby hair', are they called that because they are supposedly the hair you had from when you were a baby, or because they are like, new hair or something? Why is it called baby hair exactly?

Sheena284 I think it's called baby hairs because it looks like the type of hair most babies have (silky soft curls).
 
I twisted my hair aftr sealing with with hempseed oil. No other product.

And it feels awesome. Less IS more, sometimes...
 
So I've been trying to get a hold of a friend to trim my ends. We swear we're going to get together then strange stuff keeps coming up. They're not in bad condition or broken so.... maybe this is a sign that I need to keep her out of my hair? I just wanted a good trim (and maybe shape up since it's doing the mullet thing....) before I start tucking it away for the fall/winter... Ah well.

Anyways.... I'm sooooo excited about my QB haul! I kinda wish I had gotten more than one of the twist butters. :woot: AOHC I will NEVER be without ya baby!!!
 
I think I'll re-intoduce the Jon Feida clear glaze, I prefer the results over the Adore. JF is more work though, you have to use it a couple washes to get the full effect.
 
I'm in the home stretch of taking down my locs.. :spinning: It's so ridiculously time consuming, I can see why those who've done it say they'll never do it again :nono: It's nice to feel the softness and coilies of my loose hair again and I'm loving the way my temporary twists look. I know I can't do loose natural again for the long term though...

I want to go to the salon for my virgin perm but I'm really warming up to the idea of self-relaxing after that. I hate the idea of having to rely on a certain stylist.. too many times I've gotten attached to a good stylist, braider, etc. and then they move or disappear without notice and their phone stops working *sigh.*
 
I am beginning to suspect that "Soo Kim" is a member of this forumn. Everytime I go to an Asian BSS I see something suspect: Mixed Chicks, Silicon Mix, Alter Ego, Miss Jessie, and etc. Today I saw JBCO.
 
I just went on my first mass finger detangling session and it was relaxing.

Also, i've just noticed how much the front of my hair has grown since I first went natural.
Like before I would have to pull my hair and strain my eyes up just to see the front of my hair's ends. Now it just flops down in front of my face and is chin length. Also I can see the ends of my hair from the crown of my head. I can wait to see the ends from the back of my head.
 
Once again reading the current issue of Hype Hair online. In their section of step by step styles, the title of one was "2 Hours to Texture." I thought it would be a straw set under a dryer. :yep: Nope. They proceed to show you how to do a weave. :lachen:
 
Getting ready to start wigging it. Just went out and bought Creta Girl. Oh, I'm gonna be SO Diva! :gorgeous:
 
I've been sitting here at my desk, fingering at my new growth.

I'm not so annoyed by it anymore...not in a hurry to relax. Wow.

Something else, I'm soooo glad I switched to Lye relaxers rather than No-lye relaxers.

Having my strands not-so-straight is actually a good thing. I like the fullness that I NEVER experienced when I relaxed bone straight.

What's up with that?

I have finally ordered some Bee Mine samples.....i have high hopes for this product line. I'm looking forward to using the Nourishing shampoo bar. I've never used a poo bar before and i think it's just what i need as i only apply shampoo to my scalp so a bar will make my life easier.
