Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

@TwoSnapsUp I TOTALLY understand that stage where you hair wants to do it's own thing and you're not feelin it... Have you ever tried flexi rod sets or curlformers? They help hide newgrowth and last for a while. I really hope you find something that works for you... it can be hard but it's definitely doable. It takes trial and error for sure.

The short curly styles just don't work for me and I don't like how I look in them. Ah well, back to getting blowouts.
 
I feel some kinda way about seeing naturals stretching the life out of their hair just to say they are BSL, WL, TBL, etc. That's like standing on my tippy toes to measure my height. :look:

I hate my hair

im hating mines as well. my front ends are so thin and my curl formers are just making them stick out because it didnt curl because it was to thin to take on a curl form and i seriously want to grab scissors but waiting til im 10 to twelve weeks for a fresh relaxer and to do a blunt cut. at this point i don't care about the length but than again i do, i want at least full shoulder length
 
No shade is being thrown by the following.

I am thin, tall, with a long neck and a long torso and long legs. I think we need our own growth milestones.

If you took my head and put it on someone with a short torso and no neck, my hair would be bsl on them. It is going to take me twice as long to reach MBL.

This has been bothering me for a while and is more frustrating to me than shrinkage! It is discouraging to me.

I am going to measure my giraffe neck and come back.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y
 
Hair at temples is thinning; scalp there is a bit sensitive... Is it something I did?! Something I used?! Hormones? Thyroid? Pregnancy??
The agony of not knowing if/when hair loss will stop or worsen.

Maybe have length goals based on inches than were it fall on the body then......

for me mbl is about 17ish inches and 5'1"
 
Had the quickest detangling session ever with my new paddle brush considering I haven't deranged my hair for over 2 weeks
 
My hair feels really dry today. I think it's the weather. Tomorrow I will shampoo, use my protein treatment, and then use a niiiiice moisturizing DC to get my hair back in shape :) I think I'll need to increase my conditioning in general this winter.
 
Thinking about washing my hair tonight and doing maybe some braids? I don't know. I do know I need to wash it cause its dry from gross winter air but I do not know what to do with my head right now. Maybe ill do a bantu knot out.
 
I am giving my mom a serious side eye right now. After complaining that her hair is hard to straighten and won't lay down, I straightened her hair for her tonight after she washed it. I suspected it was a technique issue because my mom's hair is really fine and should straighten without issue. I'm not going to get into how she wanted me to straighten her hair with globs of Cantu Leave In in it ( She claimed that it's a leave in conditioner so it was ok.....I made her wash it out. ). I get to blowing drying her hair and her hair straightened with minimal effort.

o.o

I was like "Ma...it doesn't lay down?" I then had to reassure that her hair will indeed stay straight even if I don't LOAD her hair with the Fantasia IC heat protectant ("Ma, I can't use the same amount of heat protectant on your hair as I do on mine b/c it will weigh you hair down) I followed up with a flat iron and her hair was all silky. I then had to show her how much Aveda anti-humectant to use (enough to cover the tip of my pointer finger). She didn't think it was enough. I told her it was.

I finished the night by telling her to stay away from Pink Lotion and cross wrapping her hair. I'm tired.
 
I am due for a trim... I mean like an inch or an inch and a half... and I will go back to babying my hair like crazy. Hair grows back, hair grows back, hair grows back. Even if I don't make it to BSL this year, at least I will make it next year because I will turn myself into a protective style and deep conditioner monster. No more games. Let the real thing begin. I am VERY MOTIVATED. African women grow long hair.... and I'm done :-P
 
Y'all
Trying to work up the guts to try to install some huge Senegalese twists. Never having had done it before. My confidence in this experiment is not that great. We shall see
 
Sometimes I question if people want help, or just want answers. There is a really big difference.

Don't ask me 50 millions questions thinking you'll cajole a "how about I just come and do it for you!" Out of me. It doesn't work like that. You have to make some effort. Please!

Sitting on the phone with the IRS when I could be washing my :censored: hair. What good is a background check company if they are going to email me asking that I provide all the information?
 
I got my Dominican blowout. I feel more put together now that my hair is done. My attitude is better too. My hair just looks neat, not like the hot mess I was rocking this AM.
 
When I finally wash out my hair I am going to retry a wash and go. I want to really get it down. They're so cute... Mine just always look frizzed out and crazy.
 
My hair is itching like crazy
I wanna wash but I'm too lazy to rollers set etc
I'll wait another day :look:
