Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I'm really enjoying my cut so far.... as long as it's straight lol. I'm 2% worried about heat damage on the natural sections, but not too much because I keep my heat decent, I use a heat protectant, I deep condition and my hair isn't super prone to heat damage from my past experience. Every time I've washed my hair, it's curled back up so far. I still need to figure out an alternate style, but when it's flat ironed, flipped and fabulous..??? Baby.... can't tell me nothing. :lachen: My bf thinks it's hella sexy. :giggle:

Always try to mind your words at 11:11. I know it seems silly but those numbers represent manifestation moments. :yep: I know... soo off topic and not everyone believes in this stuff. :lol:



I think my hair is gettnig back on track. I will not be doing ANYmore heat for a loooong timie. Especially not from the Dom Salons.

Ok.... wow. I have never heard of that. Now I am going to read into it. Thanks hun.
 
Clearly I'm not looking in the right place cause I can't find a vendor that sells simple flax seed gel? I was trying not to make any myself.
Maybe I'll just try aloe vera gel again for now.
 
no matter how much my hair actually grows, it rarely ever looks like it when it's in it's shrunken state and part of me likes that. i like deceiving people with it. i like wearing it shrunken one day and then coming in with it stretched out another day. it's the fun of natural hair to me. it amazes me how much some people's hair shrinks. looking all 1 inch long shrunken and then stretch and it's BSL. my own shrinkage isnt THAT dramatic lol (at least i dont think so), but i think it's cool. anyway...that's my spiel on that.

i was just using coconut oil on my hair and the dog kept coming over because he smelled it...was scratching at my leg and everything. greedy dog! lol
 
I just picked up the Carmel Treatment hoping it can tame and make this 4c NG more manageable. I also have never been so undecided about what to do with my hair..... This crazy
 
I have come to the conclusion that, even though in braids, reflecting, my hair likes just about everything (except waxes). Therefore, I am expanding my hair care needs and will only avoid parabens. Welcome to my life cones, sulfates, mineral oil, and petroleum/petrolatum.

This will make it so much easier to buy things on the ground instead of ordering everything.
 
On Sunday, I used the tension method to blow my hair out and twisted after. Hair came out too cute and big! Loved it! Just retwisted and put some oil on my hair maybe twice during the week and it's still soft!

Thinking I may have to do this more often! :yep:

youwillrise, you're right! My hair always looks so short and I've been natural for 3yrs! This week's hair has been big and beautiful and I know ppl at work are like "where did she get all that hair!"
 
I think its time to end this transition. I was in jumbo twists for nearly three months and my relaxed ends have basically melted off
 
I want to purge my hair product stash (to make room for more) but I keep thinking I might need something I get rid of. I have things like aphogee 2 step, aphogee 2 min and phyto organics chelating shampoo from my relaxed days which I have no intention of using any time soon but feel I may need in the far future...am I becoming a PJ and a PH (product hoarder lol)
 
3 Ladies close to me are now transitioning to natural. One of which is an old co-worker. We were talking about styles and she told me I should check out Naptural85. I was like "oh girl, I know who that is...she has nice hair and the cutest family". After we hung up the phone, I was thinking...did I really just act like I know this girl personally?? LMBO

Lol, it be like that sometimes lol
 
This protective style will not be my go to until it gets longer. I took it down to moisturize and seal because one pin was pinning one side and I saw little hairs in my hands. Seems like it is ripping my ends. I'm so mad because I thought this was something I could do
 
I thought the box braids I was doing was ruining my ends but it wasn't. When I went to dust after relaxing two weeks ago my ends looked pretty good.
 
Just got done shampooing, deep conditioning, and applying my styling products. My hair smells like cake batter/frosting lol. I used my buttercream moisturizing hair creme today as a leave-in.

When I was applying my styling products, I stretched a curl and my hair is really growing. When my hair is shrunken and fluffy it's easy to forget how long it really is. This is one of those days when I am really in love with my hair and with being natural. IDK, I've just really been enjoying being curly lately.

I'm happy with my "every other day" regimen, but now I think I might try to do my hair every 2 days. When the weather starts getting cooler I think I will only do my hair twice a week. It's funny, b/c when I was newly natural I felt like I would be a daily co-rinse/wash and go-er forever lol.
 
I have buildup and I don't know what it is. It's so early to have it. Either the mousse or castor oil. I'm using regular castor, not Jamaican or castor
 
I haven't washed or cowashed my hair all week. This is a world record since going natural. Hmmmm. It might have something to do with the products I'm using or the fact that I'm slacking on working out. I'm thinking both.
