Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I got my first "can I touch your hair" comment from one of my students..... and i'm in kinky twists.Tha hayle? It's not even an "out" style.:perplexed

Not gonna lie tho... when I do come out of this personal challenge/transition, and my hurr is swanging.. I will swoon every time I get a "can I touch it" or "is it all yours" ... lol.
 
Um, so she is my friend and her hair went from mid-back length to shoulder length fried because she keeps dying it almost blond, when she's a 3c naturally dark brown/black haired woman.

So today she tells me "I'm going to cut it all off to two inches of new growth and start fresh. My hair does NOT define me!"

At first I reasoned with her, this has been a much thought over decision of hers, but is she SURE she wants to cut off her shoulder length hair and go with the Big Chop? She acts offended, "Hair does not make me beautiful!" she says. I nodd and agree. I never said it did, but it sure does make me feel pretty! (lol)

So in an effort to be a supportive friend I'm going to sit back, while she cuts off all her hair.

I have learned through trial and error not to tell my friends how to wear their hair. They don't listen and then they get mad. I hope it works out for her.
 
One time when I was transitioning my "fall" fell off as I was standing up from a sitting position. My DH was the only person who saw it. I scooped it up and crammed it back on my head and laughed all the way to the car.
 
yeah this hair rules curlywhip is not the biz cant wait to wash it out my hair im just wondering what im going to use the rest of it for:ohwell:
 
One of my residents just gave me a handmade scarf from the Phillippines and I'm thinking "this could make a great headscarf..." Terrible lol :look:
 
It seems like every day, I'm losing more and more desire to wear my hair out anymore. Idk what that cut did to my brain, but it's really affecting my way of thinking.
 
Yay :yay: I am finally getting the knack of bobby pinning. This should make the journey to APL a little easier. :yep:
 
I've been thinking about starting over with my hair. As in growing it all out for a year or two then relaxing it :look:

This is my first time since being natural protective styling. I'm wearing 2 strand twist under a beanie.

I could not figure out where the funky, musky, spicy, weird smell was coming from. It was me. I rubbed some of that wild growth oil on my edges. All I can smell is this funk. I hope it fades. I can't stand it.

Yea I'm over all that sporadic hair dye/cutting crap already lol. Gonna stop using permanent black color and use dominican cellophanes from now on.
 
Everything came out damp when I woke up (the weather, my hair, and my mood).

I just can't today. At least my updo is mmkay. Unfortunately my hair can't change my mood when there are naysayers around me with anything I aspire to acheive. le sigh
 
Ordered one of those painters spray bottle its a super fine mist ahhhhh perfecto:grin:

'Frizz is just a Curl waiting to happen!'

I love that phrase! I attempted to scrunch out the crunch for the first time today, but all it seemed to do is leave my crown frizzy. I am just pretending it is not there. :lol:
 
ok, so my hair is sooooooooo deceptive. I did some miss celie braids to air dry and my hair looked so shrunken and anorexic. Thought I damaged it/broke it. I unloosed them, and used the tension method briefly and my hair tripled in length and thickness. Flat ironed and had a lions mane and still and MBL. My hair is so deceiving. spiral curled it and now it's hanging on my shoulders. Do i need to grow it to my knees for it to look long?! Damn!!!!!!! :wallbash:

Ogoma I sadly cannot take credit its one of lorraine massey pearls of wisdom:yep:

Not that you was asking me :look:but.....you may need to apply more product to the crown area to prevent it frizzing or make sure your hair is totally dry before you scrunch out any crunch

Thanks for the tip. My hair was wet and I put product in four large sections out of laziness.

How did I just spend over $100 on conditioner and oil? Well at least I know it definitely won't go to waste. Ugh...I feel so bad now. Haha
 
Thinking about getting a weave but not sure I'm ready because I have no clue how you care for your hair under it and I don't know what kind of hair I want.
 
When people tell you that neem oil stinks...they don't tell you it smells like straight "been binging on spicy tai peanut and tequila all day and night" vomit. :nono: I put some in my shampoo, and if I don't use that summumah till Spring/Summer, it will be Too Soon!!

Ugh...like hot summer curry peanut farts... :perplexed
