Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I've really been slacking with my regimen lately, but I'm already noticing new growth after 3 weeks. I need to get back on my game so the next 5 weeks can be productive.
 
I guess I'll shampoo my hair tomorrow. It's been two weeks (cowashed here and there). Will also blowdry and flat iron since I haven't worn my hair down in a long while. Need to feel pretty. Also need to stop thinking the only way I look pretty is with my hair down.
 
Got a $200 refund on my PayPal account from a non hair related vendor. Now I'm itching to buy some hair goodies. Maybe I will explore the Phillip Kingsley line since I'm loving the elasticizer the more I use it.

I haven't seen my scalp in a long time. :nono:

Every time I try to roller set my hair, I get very tired... then go to sleep and wake up looking like Buckwheat. :hair: Yesterday I got exhausted in the middle of deep conditioning.

If my hair looks short after I straighten it, I will be very cross. :angry2: I have been cutting a lot of my hair to get it even because one side grows faster than the other, and one side has more damage than the other. Jeez, can I please get some long hair?!?! :whyme:
 
My hair needs to figure out how to wash itself. I don't feel like washing tonight. I don't know how I'm even considering cowashing multiple times a week. I don't want to do it even once. :ohwell:

The anticipation of washing is worse than the washing itself.
 
I just co-washed with Suave Natural Infusion Seaweed & Lotus Blossom All Day Body Conditioner, and I'm impressed. It rinsed out very nicely and my hair felt incredibly soft. Smells good and has nice slip. After I rinsed, I applied my Shea Moisture Yucca and Baobab Thickening Growth Milk and then raked in some gel. I'm going to keep using the condish for a few more days before I give my final review. This line also has a foam leave-in that I want to try.

I also picked up some L'Oreal Volume Filler Thickening Conditioner and I will give that a try in a few days

I got some silica today from the Vitamin Shoppe and have already taken one pill. I'm so excited to see how it works for me :D

Overall, a good hair day.
 
I need to get a smaller seamless comb that jumbo rake is too big I end up ripping through my hair where i can't get to my roots

smh just saw some breakage at the front of my hairline on one side urgh

It's small but still I'll check the rest of my hair before I wash it later
 
Last night I took my nephew swimming at the YMCA.. It was the best feeling ever not to have to worry about my relaxed hair.. My puff an I were swimming worry free! Best decision ever, going natural.
 
I went to Sally's website to browse the relaxers they had, but none are coming up, even when I search the term. What's up with that?:ohwell:
 
Been henna red for nearly 6 years....time to grow out my blonde....hope temp rinses will work as camo while I do it. My blonde roots look crazy against this red :-(
 
i am so happy my relaxer came. i like the professional packaging

I've been pretty much rocking a twa since my BC at the end if last year. I have been on YT research a lot of great short natural hair styles. I think this spring I will try some wash n' gos but mostly other low maintenance/manipulation styles like rollersets. When I was relaxed I had no problem with this but now that i'm newly natural I feel sooo incompetent. I'm even too intimidated to attempt anything.

Also lately for the past couple of weeks I've been missing the salon. Being in the wash bowl getting my scalp massaged/hair cleansed. Maybe that too shall pass...
 
Kinda random...but for the ladies who have "type 3" hair or some sort of mix that includes it:

Have you ever noticed that your hair is just BIG? like, not necessarily thick, just huge? Fresh out of the shower my hair looks like it's trying to get some face time with Jesus. It's a poofy beast.


kinda like this critter

^^^^:lol:

Seems like I've been chasing bsl for ages. I'm like a quarter of an inch away. I feel like a kid anxiously waiting for an ice cream cone, tapping my feet and pumping my arms in anticipation. Lol, I'm so impatient! Come on, come on!!!!
 
Re: Random Hair Thoutghts/Thinking out loud

Time to get hardcore with my protective styling and with varying my ends if I ever want to get to full MBL and WL.
 
I ordered some Sprangz. I have been only handling my hair dry or nearly dry only. Since my hair is thicker my hair takes forever to air dry in braids. I think these will cut my drying time. I also wash my hair in sections. I will try using these to wash my hair in sections too. No more unbraiding and rebraiding in the shower.

Just bought a couple new bonnets on folica for when I have my twists re-installed. Hope they're big enough for my twists though they certainly look it from the pictures.:perplexed
