Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I have to bow down to all you ladies who live in Florida. I was in Orlando for about a week, and the humidity killed every hairstyle I tried ... regardless of how much product I used. It was turrrrible.

I don't know how y'all do it.
 
Girl, with your length....they will NOT look like Celie's. You can do a lot of cute styles with them and a cute scarf makes anything look nice.

OooOoo you're on to something w/ the scarf. Will try diff ways this weekend before I try it at work. LOL

LOL! That's funny. My hair doesn't seem affected by the humidity here.

My mentor wants me to: have my committee mtg 2nd week of July, spend the rest of July/August and part of Sept writing, and to defend my dissertation at the end of September.

My hair is about to take a serious backseat to everything...I need to get some box braids.....

shasha8685, good luck with your dissertation! At the beginning of October, you'll have two or more inches of growth from the protective styling.

@ the salon getting a wash and set. Most likely will keep doing this since my hair grew longest when I went every two weeks.
My only job would be to retain that length.
 
Ok so after I airdry (pbly wont be dry until morning) I'm going to try & put a million plaits in my hair for the next 4 weeks. Not sure if I wanna wear this mess for my bday but it is what it is I guess.
 
I'm slowly moving up in my locs detangling process. :yay: I'm kinda glad I was wearing locs or 4 years because a lot more natural hair options have appeared since. :yep:

Sent from my iPad...excuse the typos.
 
it's too humid out here! i wonder if i can get away with wearing wigs and twist outs for the rest of the summer? i normally like to wear my own hair out, but this hair that is sitting on my neck is not the business right now. feels like a hat. i wish i didn't get those knots in my hair and had to chop it off. i'm back to taking my vits. i think i will be able to stretch my relaxer until Sept. i barely have any new growth and i will be 4 weeks.
 
Why do they have to mess up a good 'thang with fornula changes, #amned Tresemme and Lusters (S Curl)!!!!!

Got me searching and reading reviews all day at work trying to find suitable replacements.

So, when I braid my hair, I usually find that my ends curl onto each other and make little knots with shed hairs included. I've found that fresh aloe gel from the plant slathered on my ends allows my hair to just slip out of any tangles. So now, my aloe plant is my go to detangler.
 
Ok, I'm made I order the LUSH hair treatments and I put one on the other day and it was not all that. I take another look at the ingredients (I couldn't find them all on online) The 5th ingredient is SLS. This stuff is just shampoo. Ugh.
 
UGH! Scratch that, I can do my own hair. But I'm going back to using heat. My hair looks much thicker blown out that air dried.

Bought some Silicon Mix bambu products. I like it so far.

What products do you like? I just purchased a tub of the deep treatment but I'm trying to finish the original first
 
While moisturizing my hair last night I noticed a good bit of damage in the center section of my hair. Guess it is time to get serious about finger detangling.
 
This morning I detangled one side of my hair w/ no product. I'm 13 weeks post. Then I detangled the right side of my hair w/ s-curl. Big - huge difference. Getting through my NG w/o losing unnecessary hair was awesome!
