Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I wish my hair would hurry up and get to a cool length.

I hope the hairfinity vitamins are worth it.

I hope my twistout comes out ok/cant wait to receive my qhemet order

To get braids or wait. That is the question. I dont want to feel like I bought products for nothing.
 
I think I may cowash tomorrow. I don't exactly love how my hair feels right now.

It feels a bit "hard", for lack of a better word. I already know what it is though. I used SD's Mocha Silk Infusion and it strengthened my hair more then it moisturized. Gave my hair absurd volume.

LOVED IT! But I definitely need something moisturizing afterwards. I may whipped out my V05 Strawberries and Cream.

Then again I may tough it out.

Who knows? Because I sure as heck don't :ohwell:

Long random story:

So yesterday one of my clients was a hairstylist, so we chatted about hair during the session.

Him: So what do you do to your hair?

Me: Oh not much, just wear wigs or bun it up.

Him: (chuckles) You don't want to highlight it or something?

Me: No, I'm trying to grow my hair long and the less I do to it the better.

Him: (chuckles again) How long is your hair?

Me: It's touching my brastrap

Him: (pause) That's pretty long. I like your curls

(I was wearing a halfwig haha)

Him: How long are you trying to grow your hair?

Me: To my waist

Him:(chuckles once more) .....

Idk what he said after that, I tuned him out lol.

Obia? Does that mean what I think it means or is it entirely different?


Since I'm home recuperating for 3 weeks. I'm going to take full advantage of my time with hair care. I kind of feel good that I don't have to manipulate it other than moisturizing and completing Decembers inversion. I'm just glad to have some time to myself....for myself.

It means what you think, but in this case it is the owner's name, lol.

Whew I just googled it.. I had NO idea!!!! That's just the name of the company lol I didn't realize there was another meaning... :-/
 
So I have my hair straight(ish) for a week now and I feel like I take better care of it this way! I really feel like I found what will work for me during the cold month, keeping y hait very stretched in a pigtail, oiling it from time to time and stuff. Taking care of it this way is such a breeze! I will wait until the end of the month to wash it, do a light protein treatment and iron it again. In the meantime, I will do the inversion method beginning in 10 days. EXCITED!
 
My hair from March/April-ish right after my cut and my hair from a few days ago. I'm really happy with this year's growth!

Sooo my hair does not like the protein in 4 naturals. It seems to love the protein in the Nubian Heritage though. I can cowash with Nubian heritage everyday and my hair feels great. 4 naturals just left my hair feeling thick and dry. Erg. Gonna do a moisture wash again to get back on track.
 
Tracking info says my curlformers were delivered 6 hours ago. There's nothing in my mailbox or outside of my apartment. *sigh* I'm not even going to get mad yet..I'm going to try to keep my cool until tomorrow to see if they "magically" appear ..

I literally had the same issue last week! Tracking said USPS had delivered my package on a Friday, but it wasn't actually delivered until Saturday afternoon. :perplexed:

DivineNapps1728 I'm hoping that's all it is, a tracking mistake. They've already "lost" a package of mine this summer, took me an extra three weeks to get it :nono:

veesweets Me too !! USPS must be having some issues. The package I received with the incorrect delivery date was a replacement for a package that mysteriously went missing. It made it all the way to my city & was out for delivery then the scans stopped, it never arrived & status was never updated. I was too outdone.
 
I'm not trying to pay $20+ and take the train AND the subway to another city just to get my hair trimmed...I may go to a local Supercuts and have it done. Do you all think they're reliable? I JUST need to cut my split ends off, no shape-up or anything.

I've never gone to Supercuts but I have gone to Great Clips twice (and I think the two are probably similar). Both times they cut WAY more hair than I intended (I wanted a 1-1.5 inch trim and left with a 6 inch haircut). Those are not the best places to go (in my opinion) just for a trim. And I was stupid enough to go back a second time b/c I was in a different state and figured the first time was maybe an isolated incident. But places like those specialize in cutting hair, and a lot of it. So you may walk in for a trim and walk out with a haircut, like I did (twice).

The only time a professional trimmed my hair, and I was satisfied, was when a black male stylist cut my hair at a Beauty Brands salon. But I don't live in that city anymore and nowadays just trim my own hair. If I mess it up a bit, I'd rather it be my fault than someone else's.
 
I find it amazing when I was natural for 4 years my hair wouldn't grow pass SL.

Now that I'm relaxed my hair is growing pass that point and is thickening up!

Weird!
 
I really like Eden BodyWorks All Natural Curl Defining Creme from their Coconut Shea line! It defines my curls nicely (like, whoa, curl creme has never worked for me lol) but I think I'm going to use it as a leave-in. Definitely getting another jar once this one is used up. Smells great, too.
