I have some of that stinky oil in my fridge I would give you if you lived closer. Yuck. I just can't handle that smell.
 
Today I gave myself some bangs, which I haven't had in a long time. They look good on me. I don't know why I didn't do this before.

Thanks for the offer. I would have grabbed it if I still lived in the US. It is supposed to have a very light scent.

I found out why it is sold out everywhere on the ground and online: Dr. Oz mentioned it on his Monday show as the healthiest oil to use for those wanting to lose weight. I meant to buy this on Saturday, but kept procrastinating.:censored:
 
I can clearly see the damage I did with the denman. I have areas that are 5 inches long and the rest of my hair is cb or longer. I just had to keep using that darn brush! I have been finger combing and detanglimg for a couple of months now. No wet handling of my hair. Damp or nearly dry only. Wash in braids. Dry in braids. Dc in twists and steam.

I think it's been killing my hair too... Last time I used it to detangle, I felt some damaged spots in the back. Smh, time to pick a new tool! And I tried so hard to love it too...

I just made myself dizzy. I was supposed to be prepping my hair for bedtime and I ended up playing Willow Smith and whipping my hair back and forth LOL!!!
 
I thought by now my hair would be on point I mean 4 yrs natural I should have nice big hair. So it seems my hair just stops at cbl..so for me it doesn't matter if I'm relaxed or natural my hair even with a good reggie will always be that length so relaxing isn't all that scary to me anymore. Spring time is coming and what a nice way to start the season by relaxing. That way I won't have to be so wig dependent as I am now and if I wanted something fresh I could get a half wig at half the cost..

I even modified it and bought the one with fewer teeth/bristles. Nope. I used the tangle teaser before that. That was da debil. I finger comb almost exclusively I have used a wide toothed bamboo comb and a jibere shower comb without problems. MrsJaiDiva
 
I've been bunning the last couple days 'cause my hair needs to be washed (high bun on top of my head) and have been getting endless compliments. Why is it you get the most comments on hairstyles you don't even like that much?

Im having the same issue :( My nape use to be the longest part of my hair, now the sides are out growing it and healthier so I'm getting this "W" shape :ohwell:
I think my nape was either thinning because I kept sleeping in my necklace or because I wrapped to tight. Now I put extra moisturizer on it and my edges and massage my nape. Hopefully itll catch up :)
 
Thinking about my hair. Wanting to wash and trim this weekend...but when? Haven't twisted in SO long. What if it doesn't look right? :sad:
 
I need to give the front corner of my right side a break. I usuall take out a piece on that side when m hair is in a ponytail, and twist it/ put it behind my ear. It'sbecoming something of a whack patch, really, and I can tell it's been through wear and tear. Anyway, no hair out for the month of march! let's see what happens.
 
This Loreal EverCreme Cleansing Conditioner is better than I thought it would be.....love it!

ETA: Loving my new highlights....makes my eyes POP!!!
 
Yeeeee! Took my hair out of twists after washing and doing an overnight moisturizing DC in twists. My hair is so soft and fluffy and NO detangling issues at all. :woohoo:

thanks sharifeh :) i've been a little off my game bc of schoolwork and whatnot, but my regimen is:

shampoo 1x a week (right now i'm using shea moisture retention shampoo, dk how i feel about it yet)
DC at least 1x a week (usually 2x though)
dust every 6-8 weeks
m&s daily (mist warm water, then apply NTM leave in and coconut oil)
cowash whenever
air dry always & protective style frequently

i think thats about it, hope that helps! :)
 
my hair's a little pissed with me this morning. woke up with sahara dry, tangled strands :nono: i don't think it can go with a DC any longer. once i get back from work, ORS Replenishing Pak and I are going to happily reunite :yep:

Healthiest oil to use to lose weight? How? By eating it?
Rice bran oil is one of the ceramide oils right ?

These two flat twist are so convenient. This is going to be my go to protective style when I'm lazy or rushed for time especially the days I workout and want to cowash.

I haven't watched the episode so I don't know the details, but in trying to figure out why the rice bran oil I saw on Saturday was out of stock everywhere (even online!) on Wednesday, I came across these:

One of these days I'm going to realize that no matter how others hair may look after a Bantu knot out, mine will not look that way!

Just took my knots out and I look like a clown! Will be twisting this up and rocking a puff, because this is not where it's at!

ETA: because there's always an up to a down, I do love the twist out look (haven't done one in awhile) and my hair is incredibly soft! And my wacky patch looks luscious!

I'm right there with you. I have yet to have luck with that style. :lachen: it looks so beautiful on others and seems so simple.
