Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

My weave looks great... But it ITCHES like hayle!

I have to figure out what to do. I just ordered some witch hazel that I'll use on both my face and scalp.

I also need a few color applicator bottles so I can appl shampoo, conditioner and an oil mix I'm making. The oil mix will have tea tree, rosemary and peppermint essential oils in it.

havilland is correct. ACV will cure all that up for you. Its what I've been using for my last 2 installs and it worked wonders!

almost 4 weeks in this weave and barely any itches at all. When I do have them , I bust out the ACV, put it under the net, massage it around and wash in the shower.

Acv rinse will work too. Also did you shampoo the hair? That could be why you are itching.

I did shampoo the hair... Could that be it? I didn't know that lol. I'll try the ACV rinse too v

Anywho, another small complaint... I don't know WHY I thing bangs wold be a good idea in summer. I mean I'm definitely cute (lol), by my forehead is HOT! Lol

I need to start strong my life together. The next weave will be a Crly one... With hair OFF my face... By I'll do that in August/September most likely.

Im sleeping in the flexirods again. I think I am hooked on the big curls. I put a little hello hydration on my ends and rolled my hair into 4 big curls.
 
ONCE AGAIN i tried to blow dry my natural hair on a low heat setting so i could try Bantu knots. Once again she just looked at the blow dryer and laughed...i give up :ohwell:
 
I give up playing bathroom beautician for a while but I don't want to protective style. I'm gonna make a standing two week appt with my stylist and go faithfully!
 
This extreme dry heat should really have me cowashing more or at least adding in another DC session..but my hair is so nicely stretched from the curlformer set I'm just slapping on extra moisturizer :look:
 
About 90% sure I'm getting my hair cut into a bob this weekend. The 10% reservation is trying to decide what hair style I'll rock when my hair isn't flat ironed; I don't want to have to rely on straight hair to be cute. But I think I can do a braid out and maybe pin it up some kinda way so it's pretty and can get me through hot days etc.

I don't even moisturize every day with a curly style so why am I doing it with straight hair. Even with it being wrap I still moisturize and seal daily

that cut is everything! love it, make sure to post pics when you get yours done!
 
EnExitStageLeft I knooowww!! It's so sharp! My hair isn't quite as thick as that but if I can get something close to it, I'm happy.

whiteoleander91 I will! I plan to go to Fantastic Sams because the one that I've gone to before, ol' girl can CUT some hair. As long as my ish is blowdried straight, I'm sure it will turn out decent. :lol:

I'm jealous. I can't wait until you post pics
 
The ouchless bands I just bought for my daughter aren't worth a crap. I have had to change out the band multiple times, because they keep popping. The ones I got from Target were much better.
 
I know this is extremely random, but I wonder if women in prison have access to healthy haircare... I imagine most of them go natural and wear protective styles. In bootcamp (Navy) we were only allowed the basics: shampoo and conditioner. I wore cornrows the whole time too lol.

I guess Orange is the new Black inspired this question haha

Only if they buy it through commissary. They don't even have adequate health care. Of corse they don't have access to healthy hair care lol.
 
I was looking through my camera phone pics and saw some old hair pics pre-setback. I'm so depressed. I was approx 2" from BSL. :sad:

I had to cut back to NL. 1.5 years later and I'm still not back to APL. :sad: I just wanna cry. My hair was so beautiful…

Awww it'll grow back. If you can get there once you can get there again. I'm right there with you. I am trying to get back to my pre-big-chop-length
 
I tried to do a hump and ponytail and my hump look disformed or wasn't staying . I tried to do a banana clip but left some hair out and got tired of not being able to do simple things. And ended up wearing it just down. So corny
 
I wanna see if I could go more than a week without washing my hair. Tomorrow will be a week. But not feeling this straight ish. Might figure out a protective style or low manipulation style
 
I put my twa in cornrows last night as a protective style for the first time. Anxious to take it down tomorrow. Also trying to rid myself from a severe case of hih syndrome that has worsened with recent anxiety.
 
Anyone else notice that Chi silk infusion changed the recipe? It used to be a golden color and now it's clear. The ingredients have changed a lot. The new version is paraben free. Fortunately it feels the same and it smells the same. I wanted to take a pic of the ingredients, but the writing is so tiny :(
 
My parachute coconut oil has come in. Mmm that coconut smell! I missed it! It is back and I will not wander away again from my favorite brand of coconut oil :love:!
