Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Saludable84]

I'm taking swim lessons this weekend. Any way to protect my hair from the chlorine?

My boyfriend suggests a swim cap but his beautiful bald self knows nothing about hair.I read online that swim caps just keep the hair out of face, not that it actually protects your hair from the water.

Is this true? I don't trust anything online because I assume most websites assume the reader is white.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

The trick is to clog your hair before hand with butters so that the chlorine has no room to get in. Wrap your hair with domething waterproof too like a plastic cap or saran wrap, then a swimming cap. Crisco is excellent at keeping water out. So is Shea butter.

Also, beware of swimmers shampoos as relaxed heads shouldn't be using them.

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

Please explain the relaxed hair and swimmer's shampoo thing please Saludable. I'm assuming sens it removes chlorine which is a chemical it somewhat strips the relaxer as well?

I cut off more of my hair today. Some pieces aren't even shoulder length anymore. I can't wait until this color grows out.

Trying to find info but I did read that you shouldn't go swimming with a relaxer less than four weeks old? Have you heard that?

Every now and then i get anxious about making it back to WL. I cannot wait to reach it again.

I am NEVER....NEVER cutting my hair off again! i miss it so much! And ive been feeling disappointed everytime i straighten it bc its not the WL hair i had.

Thankfully i only have a few inches to go

Once I wash, deep condition my hair I cant wait to trim off atleast a 1in-1 1/2in of my hair off and twist it up. Maybe I need to jump on a hide your hair challenge. Im so tired of doing my hair.

I ordered a relaxer. The puff is officially going away until I get the itch again lol

My ends were healthier when my hair was relaxed.

My hair does not like mini twists! Mini braids are fine. I only shredded one or two twists! Never again. Ever.

My scalp is itching like crazy right now and I know it's b/c of glycerin.

I need some hair jewelry to make my teeny weeny buns look cute or at least distract from the fact that they are so teeny weeny. I guess I will spend my lunch at Sally's tomorrow.

I'm having a severe reaction to the s-curl. My scalp has been severely red & on fire!!! I washed my scalp. It felt better. Then I used the s-curl on my NG again to detangle & my scalp is right back on fire!! *tear*

Benadryl. But, I know you already know this.

And stop using it.

I've been using Aubrey Organic Camomille Luxurious Volumizing conditioner as a leave-in....it actually gives my hair volume. How does a conditioner seemingly give me more hair...so weird, but for now I'm liking it a lot

 

[BlaqKitty]

I had no idea my hair is only a few inches from arm pit length bc Ive been too busy crying over lost length. Its a nice surprise

When i'm depressed or blue, spending time my hair cheers me up to no end.

Since I relaxed, I am loving cowashing. Is it such a thing as too much cowashing?

At work, I spotted a coworker wearing a pretty, long braid down her back and a beret (French hat)! She looked so stylish and feminine! She couldnt remember where she bought the hat from bc it was old

So now I'm on the internet scouring for a new beret...

Left the gym and went straight to the beauty store with sweat stains and all. Got me some more Nexxus Humectin deep conditioner and this Paul Mitchell tea tree conditioner. Hopefully this will also help in soothing my scalp after that lil s-curl mishap. Ended up being in there for over an hour because two girls stopped me to chat it up with a question and answer session to help with growing their hair out. *shrugs* It comes with the LHCF territory I guess. Finally got out of there before they closed. smh I did end up buying two wigs though. They had a buy one get one free this evening.
