Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

So I was just in Sally's and I heard one of the associates mutter to the other one that I must be a hoarder :blush::lol: I go there maybe once every 1-2 weeks but that's probably more than the average person lol. It made me feel kinda bad but I wanted to tell them - you guys have no idea, I'm way better than I used to be, I only use 1.5 shelves of a closet for my hair stuff now :lol: I still love browsing and checking the clearance stuff. But yea, I guess I'll be doing most of my product browsing/shopping online from now on :look:. I know it wasn't that serious of a comment but no one likes to feel blatantly judged while in a store...
 
Imma need some of these hair tutorials with AA women on youtube for the Remington Curling Wand to be with real hair...uughh
(other than glamtwinz)
 
I am seriously thinking about transitioning. I've wanted to for years, but it never seemed like the right time. I'm 2 months post right now, and I'm planning to get a sew in at the end of April. By the time I'm ready to take it out I'll be around 6 months post. I think if I can handle my hair at that point I'll know I can handle a transition.

Also, I'm ridiculously excited about the hair I ordered today :grin:. I managed to maneuver my way into getting what I wanted even though that texture and length were "sold out". Hopefully I'm happy with it when I get it in the mail.
 
thinking of going back to half wigs for the winter but the weather hanging around 40's to 50's temps to stay with my wash and go's
 
I have been secretly haboring the idea of bcing again (this time willingly) but I'm hoping getting my hair braided will stop my urges.
 
My hair seems to have changed since this Chic. prepoo. This is my second time doing it. I'm interested in seeing how it will benefit my hair in the long term...
 
I haven't done a wash n go in so long but last nite I wasn't up to twisting my hair, so I did an overnight hempseed oil treatment and cowashed in the shower this morning. I used Curls Souffle as my leave in, Original Moxie Lux Locks as my moisturizer and eco styler gel to shingle... I love my hair lol. :yep: Im almost 11 months post (on Saturday) and my wash n go's are so different than when I first BC'd. Not even close to my final goal look/shape but I still can't deny the growth. I can't wait til it fully dries so I can scrunch it and make it look full, etc.

Also, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use the diffuser properly!! I've watched videos but still can't get it; my hair always ends up dry looking and crunchy. I assume its my products and technique but eh. I like my hair airdried anyway. Looks more lush.
 
I'm shedding like a mug....hopefully this alter ego DC garlic will help. If not, then imma make a thread. Its better than before at least
 
We need some new emoticons for those that like to pat themselves on the back so much because they really have evolved so much further than the rest of us.

Just needed to vent.
 
Watching "what not to wear" any WHY does the black stylist Ted Gibson insist on chopping everyone's hair!?!? Ugh!!! I hate this butcher stylist mentality
 
Lmao. No no! No offense lol K just saw a girl today and she had the longest ponytail ever but I think if she wore her hair down it wouldn't be that long. It was really pretty though.

I am not feeling my hair today :nono:

I am all kinds of mad right now. I think I need a serious deep conditioning treatment right now. (or a haircut, which I DO NOT want at all) What I really need is a break from my hair. What I am going to start doing is weaving it up from December - March each year and wear it out the rest of the time. Since I had it out this winter, I realize that I hate dealing with my hair when its cold because I much prefer to do wash and go's. And I miss my beloved glycerin, which has been making my hair dry these days. :nono:

:rolleyes: This love/hate relationship is for the birds.

I used a whole lot of the Qhemet and I am about to cowash it out. I used way too much.

I want to get a straight weave but goodness gracious the hair game is serious! The prices are nuts and there are so many options; I don't even know where to begin. What I do know is I'm not breaking bank on no daggone weave, lol.
 
I wore a twistout on valentines day and today I just misted with my moisture mix and then used Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing smoothie and the curls popped right out!!! No twirling or nothing!!!

This was the first time my BFF saw me since I big chopped! She loved it!!

Then my bff informed that two years ago I had hit a goal without knowing. It was my first relaxer after having my baby and I had more than nine months of new growth! After the deep condition, the stylist said I needed a trim:look: but my friend was like :nono: of course I didn't listen, and of course the stylist was scissor happy. She cut me to full SL and I was happy with that. My bff was so mad and kept saying the shs cut too much but I didn't understand what she meant since I hadn't seen my length (the stylist was determined to cut my hair)

Apparently, I was APL!!! Good thing she didn't tell me, I would've lost it!!

So here's a :beer: for all the buns I could've did had I known. I know it's silly, but it's nice knowing that I can grow my hair that long.
