Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I wish it would hurry up and be Saturday. I need to wash, detangle, and put my hair in twist in preparation of my relaxer. I plan on relaxing Christmas Eve since I won't have anything to do, but sit around the house all day. It'll be nice not having to deal with two textures anymore. I don't know why I tortured myself for eight months.

me and you both can't wait. i will probably relax the 23rd. sometimes you just get tired of the new growth even though it shows progress.
 
my hair keep getting caught in between fibers of the bonnet and breaking hair off, not a lot but who wants un necessary breakage. its suppose to protect your hair not break it. someone said Wal-Mart ones dont snag their hair, it still does with mine!
 
Hair Plans:

Braid and Curl Friday and Saturday

Saturday night I am going to sit down and detangle and prepoo with a V05/Coconut Oil mixture.

Sunday: Shampoo, Protein Treatment, DC w/ Steam, Leave Ins, rollerset, Press Roots

Wear my straight hair for a week. The following week I will install Curlformers on old straight hair; I will wear that a full week. If that falls and my scalp is still ok, I will take my old curlformer set and throw it in a high pony.

Yep you read it correctly. I won't be washing my hair for 2-3 weeks. I'm taking a hair break :lol:
 
Stretching and bunning for six months was one of the worst moves I could've made for my hair. Yes, I reached HL, but at the cost of my hair's health. Going through hair depression right now :( I know it doesn't serve me to take it personally, but I was in such a good place with my hair before I made this turn.

I've been thinking about getting a new stylist. The one I have now just makes me uncomfortable with his "I told ya so!" attitude and vague way of explaining things. Everytime I ask him for adivce I leave more insulted and confused than I felt coming in to the salon. There's an equally fancy salon near his that does touch ups...I'm just scared that the next stylist I see will jack my hair up! I may just request the one other lady (at the salon I go to now) that does touch ups. She did my hair once and the overall experience was very pleasant. Maybe she will be more enlightening on the next move I should make.

I think Hydroquench Systems is my product line. I used the Greaseless Moisture on Monday. And my really dry 4C patch of hair in the back is still hydrated. Mind you, I just put the moisturizer on, I didn't seal. I need to buy more products from her.
 
NG is popping just in time for holiday party season. Sigh. Welp, I'm not giving in. No flat iron or blowdryer is touching this hair...
 
I just brought Jamacian Black Castor oil which I will use to oil my scalp once a week the day before wash day. It didn't smell as bad as I expected and with a such a small amount, it really absorbed into my hair nicely. Looking forward to increase growth this upcoming year.
 
I regret relaxing my hair back in 2012.:sad: I'm transitioning with sew-ins in 2014. I have the urge to start using growth aids again.

ooo, you a fleci roder too! :) i love them, you can get a nice style with like 6 or less. yeah i just did spirals with 6 ones on slightly damp hair and left on for a half hour and it was done and set! ckisland
 
I'm cutting off a few inches for the new year. My hair has been mbl and always in a bun... what's the point of that?
I plan to wear my hair out more often and be more stylish with my hair. ..so I am cutting it back for ease of detangling and flat ironing.
 
^^^ I've been thinking the same thing. I've been mostly bunning for the past 2 years and I'm ready to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I just have to figure out how to style it so it looks good.
 
Laws ham mercy, my hooded dryer just died. It no longer blows hot air at all, I only had it for about a year and a half. I am still going to do a rollerset tonight.
