Realizing that I suffer from the opposite of hair anorexia. Like, hair delusions of grandeur, while looking at inbreeding hair colors. Ummm... my hair ain't that long.
 
I am so crying inside my local Ulta no longer carries nioxin thermal bliss :(

My hair is just fine, i suppose. I'd like to treat myself to a GOOD wash and perhaps a trim, from a stylist who comes highly recommended by a friend. I'm DONE with my usual salon spots, they're not doing much for me.

I had my mind set on flat-ironing my hair today. I plugged up the irons, started sectioning off pieces of hair, and began on one area in the back. Then I was like "naaaaaah, not for me" and unplugged the irons, wrapped them back up, and tucked them away in my drawer. bun-it-up for another day!!! Not interested in flat-ironing my hair right now. Just working on keeping it healthy and clean.
 
Sooooooooooo tempted to get a sew-in. Like, incredibly tempted. A friend's mom does them, and I'm sure she'd do it for less. Anyway, I'm playing with the idea. Gonna research it some more, and see this new stylist (hopefully by/ around the end of February), see what he says/ suggests, and if the cards play out, I could be sew-in bound!
 
Did a protein treatment yesterday. Tonight I'm DCing with AOHSR + AVG + argan oil + safflower oil + grapeseed oil + raw honey. The raw honey is new from the magic ingredient thread. I love the consistency of my DC after adding it. Can't wait to see my results tomorrow.
 
I did a rollerset last night and I definitely put too much product on my hair. It is flat and lifeless when I took down my wrap today. Oh well I will try again in a couple of days.
 
Cutting out sulphate free shampoos and using tresemme naturals my hair has NEVER looked better im so pleased

I just looked in the mirror at my hair and smiled:grin::grin::lol:
 
I now also time myself yes anal i know but i noticed for the last couple months that rinsing my hair thoroughly for 5-6 minutes per side before any cleanser even touches my hair is working out great for my low porosity hair :grin:
 
It is ON like Donkey Kong up in here. Hubby has finally left town for work so it's HAIR TIME!!!! The concoctions, the steaming, the henna. Oh my!

for the next 2-3 months, I'll basically have 5 days a week to look like, smell like, buy or do whatever I choose. hehehehehe :reddancer: It. is. ON!!!!
 
I have a simple hair regimen that I like now! Co-Wash whenever I feel like it and poo whenever I feel like it, lol.

No, but seriously, I will co-wash weekly (sometimes twice when needed) with Trader Joe's Nourish Spa Conditioner. Poo and DC once monthly with AO GPB. When I poo, I will do a pre-poo with oil and will apply my shampoo (diluted) with an applicator bottle in sections to the scalp only. I think this will greatly reduce tangling. I think that I get the most single strand knots during poo time. Using a dime sized amount of TJ's Nourish Spa as a leave in hasn't hurt either. I then seal that with QOAHC and apply flaxseed gel to either twist my hair or wear it in its curly state.

Simple and to the point--my goal!

Sunday afternoons = Spa Day for me. I take a long lazy bath, do the nails, do the facial, sip me a lil' wine while I wash and deep condition the hair and then I'ma just sit back and wait for my bangs to finish growing out. :cheers:

Heeeeyyyy! I'm happy for you. You finally get your hair on! :dance7:
 
No washing my head until Im well 100 percent..Just can't take the risk..I think for now on I will wash my hair up in the day as I think this why I got sick this week by going to bed with damp hair..
 
Just got back from Subway where the young man making my sandwhich says "you and your daughter have beautiful hair". He was hispanic. I was pleased to have someone else compliment our hair, especially my daughter's. Though i tell her regularly i want her to understand that just because our hair isn't the norm (read:straight) it is just as beautiful, not inferior in the least.
 
I'm thinking about my next hair style, I'm getting very lazy with my full head of weave, I'm thinking about Kinky Twists next....im sure I can do them myself, but like I said, I am LAZY.
 
bout to wash, DC, and set my hair. maybe a braid n curl or something. i need a "cutesy" hairstyle for my audition tomorrow!
 
I need to put a bonnet on my hair at the very least. I'm tired, though. lol. Meh. Tomorrow is wash day. Lemme get up and find this bonnet. I'm trying to retain all six inches I'll get this year. lol.
 
I'm going to start buying most of my vitamins at Walmart. Even the run-of-the-mill store brand at Whole Foods is getting too expensive.
 
Oiled my edges and ends with mix of Crisco and vegetable glycerin and covered with plastic cap. Shrinkage was off the chain. I sprayed hair with distilled water, smoothed through with fingers and applied my henna gloss. Very few shed hairs, smooth application. Covered henna head with a plastic cap and put turbie twist over plastic cap.
 
I felt that i had been scraping APL (stretched) for the longest time, but when I looked at some pics from when i started, I see that I have come far, a couple inches from BSL (stretched), I think I need to take pictures more regulalry and actually have a proper journey to look back on, cos once MBL is here its here
