So mad that my postman didn't bother to see if I was home ( I was)..now I gotta make a trip to the post office to get my hair product.

I hate that too. I actually called the company to complain once and they gave me some weak excuse like they're not obligated to even post some packages; they can just leave a notice and walk out. I call BS though.

SUNSHINE BABY yup, that's the one! And I'll let you know if I do!
 
I have been very diligent to massage my scalp every night since my last relaxer touch. Here I am 4 weeks later and I can feel the beginnings of new growth.

I saw it on sale once for around $35 or so... still contemplating if I made the right decision not picking it up. I'm not sure if my hair loves shea butter but it's one of those old staples that people love and AO HR worked great for me.

Does the Macadamia Natural Oil have a lot of slip? Macadamia oil > Argan oil when it comes to my hair so I'm curious, @AlliCat.

The Macadamia Oil mask has a decent amount of slip. Not the best but it's up there. It also smells really perfum-y (I like the smell) and it lingers. I tend to save it for when I flat iron because it consistently leaves my hair looking and feeling extremely SILKY especially after a flat iron. I'm on to my 3rd jar, and this will always be in my rotation
 
Oyin's Hair Dew has to be the best product I have ever tried. It can take my hair desert dry and hay like to soft and hydrated. It even softens and moisturizes my ends. And on top of that it smells so good.

I'm going to buy the liter bottle.
 
I have to start diligently protective styling. The summer heat is no joke on the ends of my hair. I started the day with fluffy curls from my blow dried hair set with flexirods. I went out for lunch, pass by the mirror on the way back to my desk and my curls are gone. My hair has a slight bend. The summer heat literally takes my hair from curly to straight. It never fails, it happens every summer.
 
My hair (or so I thought) look like a hot mess! All I knew is that I was going to see this movie hair done or not. And this chic & her friends stopped me to compliment me & ask me questions about my wack pin up. LOL!
 
Cant wait til i get my TU on Sunday

I wanna get a light moisturizer to use post TU and oyin's site is down

hopefully DB transition creme will not feel so heavy and e good enough to use til I get to try out dew..
 
I wonder if lo-po hair is more prone to heat damage. Its been 2 months since I last flat ironed my hair (put any heat at all on it) and finally curls are starting to form closer to my crown and not be so straight, granted they are still wavy and not coily.
 
Okay, I've have got past this YouTuber using; a lifetime supply of saran wrap for any and everything, cotton bandannas, no heat protectant, but it appears at approx 3:47, she is now using paper towels for end wraps.

I can't take it anymore!

I'm so lazy. I have no desire to do a hot oil treatment, shampoo, DC, blow-dry and twist my hair up for the night.

All I want to do is sleep.
 
Wow I just bought a lemon. I'm so upset because it wasn't cheap and return shipping is expensive. That's the last time I buy an expiremental product....
 
I was going to get my hair professionally done for my B-Day in August. However, due to genesislocks, naturalmanenyc, and browneyedgrl's nightmare experiences today. That will not be happening.

I'm not going to let a Hair Hater, SHS, nor an incompetent nimkim-poo (sp?) ruin my hard work.

I feel terrible for these ladies, because I can relate. I was attacked by a Conair Yellow Bird hand held dryer the last time I went to the salon. I left the salon looking like a fly arse skint chicken.

I've known my previous stylist since H.S. and she's good, but she uses a shampoo girl system, so she can focus on chemical services and cutting. If the shampoo girl is too ruff, skimps on DC, and/or attacks you with the yellow bird, you're jacked-up. I have low density hair, so I need every strand I have.

LOL! Hilarious because I was planning on the same thing, to get a relaxer professionally done in August & turned around & called my mommy instead. I will just stick to what I know @ this point.

I actually had a good experience in November with a stylist, however, I hate the fact that I have to repeat myself and tell someone what I want and pray they will respect my decision. When it comes to a relaxer, I just cannot see someone "professional" doing it anymore.

This girl here has taught herself to fish, so she will be fed forever.

The best relaxer I ever got were from my nana and she has arthritis and cripple fingers!!! When relaxer time comes around, I just might find her again lol.

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together
 
I was at the mall yesterday and this lady told me my hair had super-powers then a white guy told me he always wanted an afro. Kinda weird :look:

It's nincompoop.
 
Yesterday, I cut/trimmed about 3 inches of stick straight ends. So now I am about 90% texlaxed. Thinking about transitioning.

I made an appointment for a relaxer retouch/deep conditioning treatment at a salon recommended by an LHCFer in the salon review forum, and I'm praying that I don't have a setback. Last time I went to a salon for a relaxer, my scalp was so burnt that it oozed for days and then scabbed up like crazy.

OMG Gross!! I never heard of so many salons that do not know how to do a relaxer until I joined LHCF. smh

I know a chic in Miami who does my relaxers when my mom is out of town & can't do it for me. I never burn.

Oh it gets better. I once went to Toni & Guy and they used a super relaxer on my hair so all of my relaxed hair broke off on one side and the new growth didn't even get straight. I had to part my hair in a very specific way for months while I waited for it to grow out.

The only reason I'm going to a salon is because my birthday is that week and I want to spoil myself a little... also my arms are tired enough from lifting weights and I'd rather not tire them out by relaxing, etc... lol
