Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Last edited:
interesting...i just watched a video of this girl and she put a scarf on her head to lay the hair flat and smooth...but then she pulled it off all sloppily. like...i was expecting her to remove the scarf carefully by untying the back and then lifting it off of her head ever so gently...but no, she just WHOMPED it off. ((shrugs))
 
She seems to want her hair to do things that it may not want to do. :look: She made a funny 4c wash and go "rap" video...but yeah...jokes are usually serious.

Well she said that was the only option her dermatologist gave her because her scalp can't take much tension. She then realized that the doctor wouldn't understand that she couldn't do that with her hair type. Hence the song. I actually kinda feel bad for her :ohwell:

Yeah her weaves in the past she said were very tight yet she kept going back and got like 5 of them or something and joked and said they were root snatching braids :-/

I dunno but tension on my roots is one thing I don't play with I once paid £100 for a weave and took it out two days later as it was way to tight **** around with that tension and you will pay the price later :nono:
 
Lilmama1011 Thanks!

Can I used them on wet hair? Say, if I wanted to try and flatten my new growth. I'm trying to stretch until New Years.

they are good because they are light weight and won't break your ends if you choose to hang ends only and comfortable to sleep in, feels like sleeping on pillows unlike curl formers and etc
 
Took out kinky twist to wash and redo. Why is my hair actin the fool? Man I am tempted to go to the barber and just shave it off!!
 
I was going to get a poncho for the winter instead of wearing coats and jackets, but can't figure how to work that without the risk of messing up my hair each time I put it on and take it off. :ohwell:
 
Finally washed my hair but not in the mood to style it

Left a lot of shea moisture con in and will just bun it hopefully it doesn't react badly with blue Eco
 
My birthday's this week so I'm taking my out my twists and getting my hair straightened for the first time in 2 months. I'm looking forward to seeing my growth but I'm not going to lie, I love my hair in twists, especially the ease of wash days. Can't wait to have them re-installed.:yep:
 
I really don't understand hair vloggers that try to look and talk cute in their videos (pursing their lips, winking, batting eyelashes, talking in a voice that is not their normal voice, all that stuff) when their audience is all female. I just want to see what you put in your hair, how you style it (night time maintenance and morning refresher if applicable), brief review of the products used especially if it's your first time using it, and the end results. I don't understand why they put their clubbing outfits on and spend 2 hours doing their makeup for a da** 5 minute YouTube video.
 
Thinking about getting some perm rods...or even straws to try a twist out, my ends don't stay locked so many curling them will keep them together. I get way less SSK's stretching my hair then WNG.

There was a point in time where I felt this way too, but now I'm begining to understand that physical appearance/staging of recording space/infectious personality/etc., all lend themselves to being a successful youtuber; of course there are exceptions to the rule && people that can be over the top.

I look at it this way, I side eye people who tell me they can hook my hair up & their heads look like who dun it; if a beauty blogger doesn't use their own advice will viewers take them seriously?

A couple of folks I follow have made YouTube a business venture; they're pulling endorsements, vacations/event appearances, free products/equipment/gift cards/checks & the list goes on. If their presentation bugged me I'd unsubscribe, but I can't knock the hustle or the effort they put into branding themselves.

I understand that. I guess I'm talking about those over the top ones and I think I've just seen a lot of them lately. Yes, I will not take hair advice from someone whose hair looks ratchet but I will take hair advice from someone who doesn't have any make-up on....just wouldn't take make-up application advice from her lol
 
Used Eco protein gel for the first time the one with the black lid

Never used a protein gel or any sort of brown gel remember the horror stories of relaxed girls back in the day and their broken edges from it

But I moisturised well so let's see how it goes
 
Is Bigen dye really permanent or does some of it fade out in a few days. I refuse to believe that gray are already returning in less than a week. Then again that would mean that inversion has worked.

Blueberry Passion Fruit Control Paste!
 
I want Havana twists ASAP, but I don't want to buy & soak the hair && then be forced to wait for it to dry before I can install it.

Hmpf.

A bun it is.
