I'm in the middle of a bit of a disaster.
I decided to do my first henna gloss today. I decided I will used henna (obviously), ORS
Replenishing Conditioner and hemp oil.
I don't know what I was doing, so I put some henna in my mixing dish and add water and mixed. Then I threw some of the ORSRC in, then add the hemp oil. I was mixing and mixing and the henna was in clumps. I thought, well I've mixed enough so went and put it in my hair. Well when I it was in half of my hair I decided it was a bad idea. The mix looked like vomit and smelt like vomit, you know how the ORS conditioner has the orangey smell and henna has its unique earthy smell.
I put it all in ym hair because I didn't want to waste it. Then about 20 mins later I thought, my hair will start breaking because some parts of my hair strands are going to be really strong because of where the henna mud clumps are and some of my strands are going to be flexible and moisturised where the conditioner and hemp oil is.
So i'm trying to wash it out and the water pressure is so low barely any water is coming out (just imagine I was trying to rinse out relaxer, SMH). I decided to give up and let my hair dry so I can just deep condition with some AOHSR.
I'm currently typing this with clumps of henna stuck in my hair.

My hair seems to love being dc more than once a week..the conditioners I'm now using seem to be the right prescription for my dry hair as a natural.I want my hair as healthy as possible and if growth comes great before I relax next year.
Getting deeper into this unintended stretch so I was proactive and bought some Aphogee 2 Minute and a heavier leave in. I'm going to flat iron today to make sure my hair isn't in the process of falling out and I haven't noticed yet.

heat training worked well for me for the styles i wore back then(lots of twists and WNGs) but now i pretty much wear my hair in a rollerset,bantu knot out,in a bun or straight.i feel like it will be easier to achive these styles with a relaxer.im also hoping i can wear a few more styles that show off length.
i dont really like to wear my natural curl so im hoping the relaxer with make said styles easier and faster to achive and last longer. ive havent been happy with my hair for the longest so i thought maybe if i get my hair relaxed at a salon instead of at home and get it relaxed/texlaxed instead of texturized, this time around with the chemicals might work for me.
if it doesnt work out i will just cut it into a twa and call it a day. long natural hair is not for me

I don't really wear my "natural curl pattern" much either.
well, i'm excited to see your results! your hair is lovely, and I'm sure it'll look great relaxed.

Why are wig reviewers on Youtube so...rough looking. Not necessarily ugly but like those type of women that can wrestle a bear or something...then they have the nerve to wear a bunch of makeup

I blew out my hair Saturday prepping for flat ironing.. I was excited to see the length I have for 6 months, it was longer than I thought it would be. In fact, I had as much growth/retention in 6 months of being natural as I did in 10 months of being texlaxed. Go figure. Anywho, so the blowdrying went down well, my hair didnt' take a lot to get straight. Even the flat ironing went well, only needed one pass with the comb chase method. However, it reverted before I even finished my entire head. I was hella frustrated at first, but just used that as a opportunity to trim my ends (less than 1/4th inch) cuz they were feeling ratty, and jumped back in the shower for another wash n go.
Maybe I need to use different products; I used Lacio Lacio & Chi serum before blowdrying. I think I'm gonna blowdry/flat iron once a month to monitor the health of my hair.

Well that is a lovely thing to do. It will certainly put a smile on the DV victims' faces. Good for you.

I wish I could just do natural hair for a living. I think I'd be healthier doing something I love instead of doing something that I find absolutely no joy in. Even when somebody says the appreciate what I do I feel NOTHING.
I've loved hair since I was a little girl. I just wish I had the encouragement to do that instead of this.
But it's not too late.
I'll pray on it.

I need you to pm me some examples lol
Silk Elements Leave in Creme. My hair feels like silk! I tried not to laugh, I really did, but couldn't help it
12 more days. I don't think I will do another no heat stretch this long again (5 mos). The suspense kills me. Maybe I'll just do 3 or 4 months after this.
Or maybe once I reach my goal, and feel more confident in my reggie, I won't care as much and won't be dying to see/check my hair's progress.
