Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[freckledface]

This lady was eye.... Doin the nasty (u know what I mean) my bun today. At first I was like what this ***** lookin at. Then once I recognized the look (cause I do it often) I was strangely please.

 

[fairyhairy]

wash n go done yesterday, going to make last a week,

 

[Tonto]

I feel like putting some henna in my hair... maybe I will just wait next week end, I am very ready for that!

 

[Nix08]

I'm thinking that I may put a pinch of SAA in my tea rinses.....

 

[youwillrise]

think im gonna stop using ponytail holders/elastics/whatever you wanna call them. no matter how careful i am with putting them in/taking them out, there is always hair wrapped around them. i dunno if my hair is pulling out or if the shed hairs are getting wrapped around em, but i dont like it. haha.

 

[daviine]

youwillrise Me too. I read some people soak them on oil but I don't know if that helps.

 

[afrochique]

My friend's mom ran her hands through my hair today asking if it was mine.
I don't like people touching my hair but today was whatever. I had washed and DCd yesterday so it felt good and I felt good about it.

It's weird seeing my length check pics popping up on FB without my permission. I really have to reconsider what I'm posting online. Sheesh. I'm glad I had a shirt on, at least. Nobody wants to see alladat.

 

[NJoy]

I'm asking. What is it.

Same ol' regi. Cowashing 1-2x/wk. DC weekly. M&S (aloe/water/infusium mix, giovanni direct and wheatgerm oil), drinking more water, eating cleaner and using my growth mix 3-5x wk. Oh, and vites, although I cut back on those substantially now that I'm eating better. And of course, ps'g like a beast (even tho hubby is complaining about me not wearing my hair out. He cray. I gots goals ta meet. )

 

[NJoy]

Checking out some past pics. Dang! My hair was long. It's true what they say. Ya never know what you had til it's gone. Growing my way back to HL...but natural this time. Ah the thickness. Y'all won't be able to tell me nethin!!

Spin Pins and satin scrunchies are your friends!

I'm trying to stop cursing however my hair said a few choice words to me all week but I ignored hair. It was soo dry and there was a bit of breakage. I really think my hair is meant to stay at sl no longer. I don't know if it's bc I'm devoting more time into my body now or what. I did do a little trim on the ends. Maybe 2032 I will be APL without the aid of weaves. I also need to find out what I can do about my wig obsession. I prefer them over my own hair. My hair is nothing to me. No nothing. A wig can give me nice fullness. The only issue is my edges seem thin. I tried half wigs and my hair just wouldn't blend to save it's life. Just stuck out. I guess I can't have it all. I would prefer body over hair though bc I can buy hair. Can't buy a body. I just don't want Naomi edges.

what is your current reggie?

 

[Kurlee]

protein-overloaded hair = super reversion!!!!!. My hair was curling up when I would release the flat iron

I wonder if this translates to relaxers...I find my hair is becoming more and more resistant to my relaxer and I use a lot of protein in my regimen.

Maybe I'll try easing off the protein for a week before a relaxer (or just avoid the roots) and see if that makes a difference.

What is the best way to keep your twists/braids from unraveling? My hair is transitioning so my relaxed ends always want to unravel when I twist or braid my hair. The next morning when I take them out, my top looks good but the ends are frizzy and mostly straight and a hot mess. I don't want to use a mini rubberband because it makes my ends crinkly. I try rolling them up into knots but then when I take them out they bend every which way.

fairyhairy

Yes I did. (It was a hair group on FB that I'm not a member of. But someone on my list "liked" it and it showed up on my feed.) That only got me to wondering where else my pics are popping up. erplexed I think it's just a matter of time before one of my comparison pics shows up in somebody's growth ad.

 

[hair4romheaven]

NJoy I feel ya. I try to leave pics up for a few days but still wonder.

 

[mamaline]

I'm so sick of my hair.

 

[fairyhairy]

NJoy you can use google images to find your pics and see if they are hosted elsewhere.

Hey girl, ;-)

Have you tried JBCO?

 

[TaraDyan]

I chopped 4 inches off my hair yesterday and took my hair from APL to just below shoulder length in 2 minutes flat. And you know what ... I don't even care. It's soooooo much healthier with the blunt cut, it's unreal.

Besides, I'm transitioning back to natural anyway, so I'm not so anal about maintaining length these days. It's all gonna get cut anyway.

since you have been working out, how do you style your hair underneath the wigs?

may i ask why are you doing a protein treatment and a acv rinse? and how often is wash day?

what products? are you using the sulfur mix for growth or scalp issues?

how do you protect your hair under your wigs?

are you texlaxed or bone straight? lye or no lye?

 

[Lissa0821]

Oh well, I have been searching for a table top tourmaline hooded dryer for a while. Everytime, I would find one it would discontinued. Well, I found the Lavatech dryer that fits my needs on Friday and order it. Please tell me why I jus happened to search for this particular dryer and found it on two different websites, $15 cheaper than what I paid for.

@GoddessMaker

since you have been working out, how do you style your hair underneath the wigs? It's stays braided up like I'm in Set it off lol.

may i ask why are you doing a protein treatment and a acv rinse?I started doing more protein bc my hair was always mushy since I have been told I was doing too much moisture since my hair is so fine. I do the acv to seal all the dcing goodness.

and how often is wash day? Once a week--wash day is a chore

what products? Poo Elsta QP for relaxed hair or the creamy moisturizing one. DC Motions Dc or Silcon Mix with a mix of cermades and honey.

are you using the sulfur mix for growth or scalp issues? I use it for growth. I'm following the Njoy sulfur oil mix.

how do you protect your hair under your wigs? I just braid it up and put my wig cap on.

are you texlaxed or bone straight? lye or no lye?

I'm more texlaxed. I use Lye ORS mild which my hair never gets bone.

 

[mamaline]

I feel like my brush is doing damage to my hair. What are some good brushes to use? I just need it to slick my hair into a bun once or twice a week.

 

[HanaKuroi]

I didn't think there were any good brushes to use on our hair. Especially daily. Try gel and a scarf. That is what I have seen recommended.

 

[bhndbrwneyes]

I feel like my head is too big to pull off BCing lol

 

[venusfly]

I can't do weaves or a wig cause because I just know I couldn't stand something on my heald all the damn time. ....but I wonder if I could do some box braids. Some days I just need a break from my hair. She is so demanding and controlling. :skitzo: I still love her though.
