Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[JJamiah]

OMG, I can't figure out what hair style to do while going on vacation. I keep flopping from wig, to ponytail, to weave, to wig-ponytail-weave, and back and forth!

JeterCrazed Girl, I'm dying off of your gif. Bath Salts are a hell of a drug! LOL

After I'm done using the products I have, I just want to stick with one line. I wish I would not have experimented, I wonder if I would have been farther in my hair goals if I had just stuck with keracare.

My hubby is so tired of me taking 100 yrs to do my hair. If he could, I think he'd hold me down and relax my hair for me.

I think we must have the same hubby....and my hair is nowhere Near as long as yours. I can only imagine the conversation when I'm WHIP length...

 

[Angelinhell]

Three years later, I still want this color and length

I was able to locate Uncle Funky's Daughter and Qhemet products at a healthy home foods market near me. I will keep that in mind if I decide to try those. FYI for the Charlotte, NC ladies.

Under the dryer w/ my wet set mold. Just used smoothing mouse. Smooth n shine like the chick in the utube video. Before this DC'ed w/ ORS Replenishing Pak (had to see what folks were talking about). After this may flat iron to smooth everything out. Then pop some rollers in to see what they do.

Got my Sabino MB in the mail yesterday. Can't wait to try it.

I want a steamer.

 

[Embyra]

I have run out of space for my hair products

 

[MrsJaiDiva]

Was just about to look into something to smooth this frizzy hair of mine, when I decided to just...let go. If my natural hair is frizzy, well then it's just frizzy...why am I going out of my way to make it something that it's not?

Or maybe I just miss being relaxed?

Girl I KNOW I would have been Angelinhell. I would have easily been MBL now. I was grazing BSL this time last year. Such is life.

I got a problem conditioner and me. I went to the salon in Walmart which took a act of God really and walked out without the product. I wanted to buy both Joico products. Then went to Tom Thumb and lo and behold they had one of the conditioners and it was 2 dollars less than the salon. So it got adopted today. I also bought some curl activator to do the baggy method on my whole head. I want my hair pretty and healthy no matter the length. Trimming was hard last night but it like other things in my life it's best to cut the dead weight so it doesn't destroy life of other areas.

So disappointed in my beauty supply run today. Was all amped to stock up on the big tub of Alter Ego and Giovanni DL but they only had the small container of AE and no DL. Argh! I need to start looking for this stuff online. I just wasted gas.

I been having dry hair issues and was wondering why b/c my hair is hardly dry. I found myself moisturizing everyday which I normally don't do untill it hit me that I haven't clarified my hair since January. I have been on a sulfate free kick b/c I have been incredibly lazy w/ dcing my hair and I find that using sulfate free shampoos leave my hair less dry (so I thought). Yesterday, I whipped out my trusty ors aloe shampoo (relaxed hair hated this stuff but natural hair loves it) and dc'ed w/ a mix of banana burlee, one n only hydrating mask, a little bit of elasta qp intense conditioner and aogpb, honey and silk amino acid (a lot I know but my hair was dry) for one hour (30mins w/ heat and 30mins w/o).

I also only detangled my hair w/ my fingers, no comb or brush before washing my hair and blowdried my hair partially w/o any heat protectant unless aphrogee keratin and green tea reconstructor is consider one (bad I know). I moisturized my hair w/ brbc (water based), ohhb (humectant) and aohc (oil & water based) plus sealed w/ sweet almond oil. Cornrowed my hair and went to sleep. The next day I check my hair to see if my hair was still moisturized and it was! A lot of work but worth it. I did notice my hair is getting thicker (bonus). Sorry for the long post.

I haven't purchased the Giovanni in awhile but I used to purchase the liter size from www.massagewarehouse.com - I just checked & it's 12.99.

nakialovesshoes THANKS SO MUCH!

 

[Angelinhell]

Just trimmed some more of my thin affirm relaxed ends, no need to hold on. Hair feels much better

 

[Angelinhell]

Soooo, they're finally building an Ulta in my town. What product lines do they sell in there exactly and how good are the prices. I've always been jealous of you guys getting all the good deals.

 

[Whimsy]

I think I want the color in Angelinhell's siggie pic of beyonce!

 

[lamaria211]

Tried my queen helen garlic poo for the first time my hair feels a bit stripped but I feel like I still need to use it to stop the shedding from now on im going to only apply it to my scalp the cowash the length of my hair

 

[havilland]

i should be conditioning my hair right now...instead i am playing on the computer.....i got some detangling to do

 

[gabulldawg]

Ugh I have realized that when I use heat I need to commit to all or none! My hair looks horrible when I try to airdry and then flatiron (like I did for this week). if I'm going to use heat I may as well make sure it looks good rather than be mad that I used heat and it doesn't look as good. Well you live and learn. So now I know.

How will you mix your henna? I use green tea and coconut milk. I am afraid to use lemon juice. Where do you buy your henna? Jewell

May I get in on this? I buy from www.mehandi.com. I use distilled water and lemon juice from the little plastic bottle as per the directions. I let the mix set 12 hours before using it. I've never tried anything else with it.

I was out with my girls yesterday and one says "your hair looks so" (pauses trying to find the word) ...."Alive" you all know I was beyond giddy right but I kept it cool and ever so humbly laughed ......

 

[SuchaLady]

My hair needs to be conditioned badly its dry as a freaking desert from that S-Curl. Darn Nonie

 

[ms.tatiana]

My yaki weave is going to kill me its so nappy

 

[thehappyserver]

I love when my coworkers tell me that my hair is growing! When my progress becomes noticeable to others, it lets me know that I am on the right track.

I'm cracking up Nix08 because I so know that humble laugh followed by "thanks!" Inside you're all OMGOMG

I believe I did a mini-chop today. I just randomly snipped some relaxed ends. The funny thing is that I didn't care either. If I keep doing this every two months, I believe my relaxed ends may be gone (or at least almost).

I'm thinking I have a really big head (and thick hair) ... Cause I'm seeing that most of y'all can get away with using 1-2 100g boxes of henna... But I Need 4 boxes. Well 3 isn't enough and 4 is like Just enough.
I'm newly APL too !
