Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

ive been taking my braids out for uhhh...about 6 hours now and i'm tired as fluffles. i havent even really taken any breaks from it. it didnt take this long to put them in. ugh.
 
it's so nice to get back into the salon and let someone take care of my hair for me. i know i will meet my goals when the time is right.
 
Every strand of hair that comes out of my head I make sure there's a bulb attached so I know it's a shed hair and not a broken one. I'm aching to get back to BSB and on to BSL!
 
Looking like MacGuyver today trying to piece together hair products @ my parents house. Finally found a Tresemme Naturals sample and evoo in the kitchen- took the bottle right off the counter while they were cooking like it was Christmas morning & I found my present. Watered down the conditioner in a spray bottle and sealed with the evoo. Parents looked at me with the serious side eye. LOL!

I cannot wait for the Carolina humidity to go down so that I can straighten my hair. It'll be fun to be straight again for a day or two. I'll be stalking TJ Maxx and Marshall's for great flat irons at discount prices. With layoffs on the way I have to be careful with my pennies. :s
 
Before I used to cover my hair when getting in to my hot bath. That behaviour stemmed from when I was fully relaxed and didn't want my roots to revert in the steam. Now I don't have to worry. I let my dry ends out in to a puff when I get in to my hot bath and they go back curly when stretched and my ends are soft and moisturised when coming out my bath. It's like a 2 in 1 bath and steam treatment.
 
I just got a replacement Maxiglide...the top plate in my original one stopped heating up after under 2 years. The new Maxiglide does not have exchangeable plates, the one with the pin cannot be removed. :( Kinda bummed about that.
 
I love reveal and length challenge threads. I am not apart of any them but I get so excited when I see one, and then disappointed when I open it only to find there aren't any pictures. :look:
 
i cant belive i just wasted 45 mins trying to rollerset. i didnt even finish alf my head. i ended up just putting some braids and rodded the ends and called it a day. it took like 15 mins SMH. next time i try to rollerset i will do so with 100% snag free ponytail holders
 
I've found that stretching my hair out, like banding it at night or stretching out the root with a hairdryer is a bit pointless. After a while my hair just shrinks back to the size it was before I stretched it.

Maybe Imani will do both the APL and BSL 2012 challenges :giggle:

If not, I might take on the duty.

NikkiQ Lol, thats waaay too much doing both. I will do BSL 2012 if it doesnt pop up soon. Even tho APL is looking real shady for me for 2011 :ohwell:.

eta: so I went ahead and started a BSL thread. Had a couple of grey goose and tonics after work, so I'm all crunk. Got Big sean, "I Do It" playing. :lol::drunk:

So I really wish somebody will take over doing my hair right now. My twists are boring me, and I need a new style on my natural 4a hair...
 
I am so confused by the mention function. Sometimes I get them sometimes I don't. Sometimes I get them I can't even tell which thread it pertains too because the dates are so old. Uggghhhh I have love/hate relationship with technology.
 
I've been protective styling so long, and my hair has grown so much. I don't know if I'll even know how to handle this much hair in everyday styling. Oh boy. What have I gotten myself into? :perplexed

I could never stretch for a long period of time because I don't have time to cowash every few days and when I don't stay on top of cowashing, I have slight breakage.

I tried the braidout technique Bmbshellle posted the other day and I tell you it is too cute.

Ah well, wearing a decorative scarf with baggied braids beneath to the zoo today. I'm becoming a Master at HYH/PS styling. But it's sho making me lazy. Who's gonna do my hair when I start wearing it out? Any volunteers?

I wasn't even doing my hair myself at SL. What the heck am I going to be doing with HL hair? I'm sure not trusting any SHS. Ummm...I'm in trouble.
 
tell me why the last time i went to sallys it smelled like a straight up nail salon in there? it had never smelled like that before! it was unbearable.
 
I'm going to be in a zumba demonstration (which is funny on several levels.) I'm wondering how I should wear my hair.
 
I'm buying a hooded dryer. Want to do rod sets on natural hair. Wonder what it will look like.
Still debating on another bottle of WEN Ginger Pumpkin. There is going to be a new Xmas condish and then I'm going to act like I gotta have that!
