I hate the Tangle Teaser. I used it once or twice on my hair and though it detangled well, I saw some reviews on youtube where people said it gave them splits. Well, not only do I think this brush gave me splits, but mid-shaft splits at that.

Ever since then my hair has been acting up and I've not been able to wear my hair in a wash n' go without crazy tangling. As my hair continues to grow out, the issues are mostly with the last 5-7 inches of my hair. I have to be really careful about the mood I'm in when I trim my hair, b/c I just want to cut it to bob length right now.

And it doesn't help that my hair has been shedding more ever since I stopped taking Nioxin. I hate them for discontinuing those vitamins. :(

This happened to me. And then I used a modified denman after the tangle teaser. I am still recovering. I have 2lengths of hair on my head. Midshaft splits are the worst!!!!
 
I'm really happy with my hair right now. The overall condition and appearance has improved 100%, now I just need it to grow longer. Feeling pretty good today. Have a great day LHCF!!
 
The difference between my natural hair and relaxed hair is quite apparent while in chunky twists.
It hasn't bothered me yet..and I'm hoping it wont for at least another 6 months.
 
I got to start wearing my hair up... I can't stop playing on the beauty of my tresses! So supple...


I don't have a hair clip at work! Oh no... Darn silk dreams

Yaayayayayayayayyyyyy! And I'll get my ayurdevic stuff this weekend! Yippeee!

My hair feels nice today!

Yay!
 
Preparing to wash/condition my son's hair then braid it up. He has so much hair that I will be standing up for the next 3 1/2 hours.

Are u relaxed, texkaxed or natural?
 
Six months post texlax and I don't know if I'm going to touch up these roots or not. Got about 3 inches of curly 4b hair and I rejected thoughts of a BKT. Straightening my hair is no joke, wearing it curly doesn't look cute because I don't have curls.

I WILL try a twist out in December. I might even take pictures. I hope this doesn't offend anyone (only another 4b girl would understand) but I don't style my natural hair well. I end up looking like I just had a rough night and woke up, left the house without combing my hair...that's after hours of twisting, drying overnight and untwisting.

On the other hand...my twist outs also make me look err...uh...surprised, startled, electrocuted and that's with almost mid back length hair.

So...I might have to give up my dreams of going natural and Texlax, again.
I wanted to let go of the chemicals for good, just to say I'm chemical free. My hair is the longest and healthiest it's ever been (Texlaxed), so I'm not certain I should change something that is actually working for me.

Ah, the struggle.
 
The mailman better stop playing. He delivered my mineral rich but not my bask! USPS says out for delivery!!! I want my stuff! Hshsbskshssxxjsbevvesiownehdosowowb
 
Debating on whether or not I should just cut the rest of these thin ends off and get it over with. That would make me about chin length. I really gotta think about this:perplexed

It's done! I'm neck length, not chin length(I miscalculated :lol:). This is the shortest my hair had ever been in my life:sad:. But I love the blunt ,thick cut and fullness of it. Second cut this month, hopefully I won't pick up the scissors again until February or March.


How shall I preserve my ends? Heavy seal them and bun?

*gasp* :blush: Such language!

:look:

Yes such language is needed. Lol

It is 12 degrees outside and we have those community mailboxes. It will freeze my bask and ruin it Njoy. Waaah!

. I don't want to get arrested for fighting with the mailman. He better come on.
 
Tried my sample pack of Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisture Treatment by deep conditioning with it overnight. I really liked the results, plus the smell is AMAZING! I deep conditioned on hair that I had not moisturized for awhile, so I will test it out a few more times under normal circumstances before I post a review on my blog...but I think if everything goes consistently well I will request the $15 tub as a Christmas gift! :wink2:
 
you know that you done jacked up your hair when you cut off 3+ inches and your hair is still uneven:cry2:
 
I think Hemp Seed Oil will be my next hair purchase. I'm almost out of jojoba oil (which I liked more for my body than my hair) and I only use my castor oil on my edges & nape, so a new oil would not be an "extra" purchase (:lol: See me rationalizing? I hate having excess products!). My only concern is the aroma, but I guess I'll discover what that's like when I purchase. Hmm, I may invest in a high quality comb too, hmm....
 
I really want to stop using setting lotion when I roller set my hair.... but I am so scared how my hair will turn out if I don't use it!

I've been using setting lotion all my life. Never heard of roller setting without setting lotion, I just don't like it in my hair anymore.

My hair will be feeling like silk after my leave ins.... right up until I add that setting lotion.....
 
I so want to try the Organix shampoo and conditioner in the black bottle (I forgot the name of it). But my current routine of products are working just fine. But I want something different, a new smell to my hair. I think I will get it from Walmart so if it doesn't work I can always take it back.
 
A winning combination at last-

1. Cowash with As I Am Coconut Cowash
2. DC with a mix of Lorys Shea butter conditioner, lorys argan oil conditioner, castor oil, coconut oil and vitamin e oil.
3. Rinse out, style with rosé water, CON argan oil polisher.

Hair heaven! My hair was soooooo soft and detangled afterwards. The comb just glided through without any effort. The shipping for the As I Am cost a fortune but I don't care. I will continue to purchase it because it's worth every penny!

Now if only the demon PJ in me would finally be still but no, I still want wen 613, wen sweet almond starter kit, bask stuff and qhemet biologics!!! :grin:
