Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

caliscurls said:
Hey @Napp I was natural for several years and then relaxed because I was wearing my hair straight all the time....I now realize I'm better off as a straight hair natural with the option to rock my curls when the mood strikes. My hair does better straight but I enjoy the versatility of the curls thus my transition back to natural using keratin treatments. These treatments are really helping me have the best of both worlds...and I was thinking SoftLiss may help me get that straight roller set without using curlformers after our chat the other day. Anyhow,co-signing on the idea of waiting a bit before you decide.

thanks! i think I feel this way because it has been a few months since ive done any kind of smoothing treatment. I guess I'm feenin for a keratin treatment:lol:

I'm thinking of trying the qod white.
 
I'm so over my ends. I can't stress myself out trying to fix them from whatever drama they're going through. I'll ask my stylist for help but at this point I'm just exasperated and doing whatever the heck I want to regardless of how they act.
 
I'm looking at my product stash and honestly think I don't need to be buying anything else this Black Friday.
 
Removing my sew in tomorrow, my scalp is already dancing Makossa...
I wonder if I will have the patience to wash it the same night, detangle, do a light protein treatment, flat iron and trim... I just want to get rid of those ends...
 
Straight hair lasted 5 days, and reverted with no problems :up: . But I see why people take breaks from the forum and other online hair stuff. My hair is longer/bigger than most of the naturals I see in person, but being online makes me feel like a bald-headed scaly-wag :lol: . These chicks keep popping up with only 3 years under their belt and they completely blow my hair away. It makes me feel like I've been wasting a chunk of my life in hair world and I have nothing to show for it :ohwell:.
 
Bought a full wig and waiting for delivery. I ordered Outre Mina LF.
But now my friends want to go out this weekend and since I don't feel like flat ironing my hair, I may go out to the store and buy a lace front.
 
I really wish my hair would grow just a few inches longer because thanks to an old, short haircut my sides are progressively shorter than the back. If the sides were closer to SL, it wouldn't be as obvious. *sigh*
 
So I went through my old relaxed hair stash, and pulled out the Elasta QP Mango Butter :look:

I've been natural for a while, my hair actually still loves this stuff. I know I have an older formula, I think I may cry when its all gone.

People have asked if I've gone natural because I'm no chemical and I have to say no, thats not it. I'm natural because I'm freaking lazy:lol:

I really want to start making my own products, but I have way too many things for all of that right now. I have been making my own candles and enjoying it so much. I am going to explore soaps and liquid soaps next. I need discipline not to buy too much stuff so I can start making my own hair products at the end of next year.
 
Inversion worked!!! I'm at the salon and the rollers they used for at least the middle of my hair is significantly larger than the ones I used three weeks ago!! Yay!

Small victories. Not sure how long my hair is right now but I'm still skimming my shoulders. I'm also throwing out my Shea butter. It's too much protein for my hair I think
 
^^ I don't think shea butter has protein. It does contain natural latex that can feel waxy on some people's hair. My hair really didn't like it at all.
 
I want a nice bun look for tomorrow that isn't a high bun or a top knot. :ohwell:

This Darcy's Botanicals Pumpkin Seed Conditioner? I think it's a keeper!

I need to get me some JBCO...but I'm not paying $14 for that little behind bottle from the BSS. Amazon, here I come!

My hair looked like crap today :lol:

I was in love with the KCCC & KCKT combo and was planning to restock during the sales. I used it last night for my holiday style and realize that it gives me zero root definition (compared to Ecostyler Argan + leave in).

15" of definition and 1" of frizzy, undefinedness.

Why did I mess with my hair? Now it is 1am and I am fooling with so I don't look crazy on TDay.


Protein and DC now stretching my hair in braids?

The oven was drying out my hair.

Sent from my iPad using LHCF
 
I used Eco styler a couple of days ago and for the first time it left flakes idk why because I moisturized and sealed before hand, it had to be something that didn't mix well
 
I did a braidout, it's super drawn up, lol, now I don't know what to do, great definition, but if don't want to be playing in my hair causing frizz trying to figure out what to do, any recommendation? Send videos my way ASAP
 
I am trying to figure out what bkt to buy but i cant make up my mind! There are so many options! I remember back in day when there were only a few brands
 
My husband really likes the oyin handmade burnt sugar pomade. I had the fragrance but ran out and really don't feel like buying more (shipping was not good if you only wanted a small order). Is there another man friendly fragrances that your SOs like? Thanks for the deets:)
