Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I have been working out and walking at least 2 miles for about a month now. I have noticed my new growth is really coming in at 4 weeks post, I usually don't see any substantial new growth until week 8. This is a good thing.
 
I have yet to determine a touch up frequency since starting my hj:nono: 6-8 weeks prior 11 to 16 since. I really shouldn't go 16 weeks BUT I want the length surprise that comes with the long stretch:ohwell: BUT not the breakage..maybe it's not breakage and rather shed hair...I guess this time around that's what I'm going to study. I like the RT thread, except since writing here I don't write in my journal as much.....
 
Just discovered and I'm loving this blog: Justgrowalready.com I know she's on here just can't remember her screen name.
 
I love kccc! it gives me such great definition, softness, shine and a lasting style!!!!

and aloe vera gel to smooth the edges?! NICE!
 
So why was :2inlove: @ work when this elderly middle eastern lady came in with her hennad hair in a low bun. Her bun fell and OMG my jaw drops as it fell beyond classic length. Its was so silkly looking you could tell she took great care of her hair even at that age. Boy I wish I had a pic to share with you guys. sorry.
 
why is this hussy watching my head so hard?! Must you make a comment EVERY TIME I SEE YOU, which is daily?

GET A LIFE!!!

Maybe say something to her? Geez I know when I was growing up people always told me staring was rude. :perplexed
 
I can't go more than a few days with washing or co-washing my hair. Otherwise it's itch city on my scalp. I'm going crazy and counting down the hours until I go home and take care of this.

I try to be diplomatic. Like it's everrrrrrrrrrry day. Yesterday I see her and she's like, "oooooh the long hair is all gone now, where did it go?" I say, " I washed it and it's curly now", with this face :look:. Why does this chick look 1) disappointed and 2) like I'm lying. Every day since I blew out my hair she's asking questions, trying to weave check and touch, backhanded compliments. Like GET A LIFE, with your sorry lacefront with flaking glue:perplexed.

I cant wait to get my repaired splitender in the mail.

I sent it out to have the tab that keeps it closed and the lock tab fixed they also replaced the blade free of charge.

I am going to wait to flatiron my hair I cant wait to see this flatiron job results. I picked up some new stuff after reading a thread on silk amino acids being very beneficial when heat is being used.

I want to get some new blades for mine too. I've only used it about 4 times but, my daughter also used it and I don't know how many times. Wondering if the blades are available locally. :perplexed I'm paranoid about using a dull blade but really want to trim my ends.

Oh lawd, if you need to explain WHY your hair is "shorter" because it shrinks when washing since it's not naturally straight or altered to stay straight via relaxer then there's no hope. Homegirl is special, Kurlee. :look: :lachen:
 
Well, well, well. See, when my hair started growing and I tried to tell family and friends what they needed to do to grow theirs too, it was too much. Nobody had time for it. Noooooooow, look who's all coming around asking a ton of questions. :rolleyes: Luckily I like to share information. I could've been another type. :hand: Sho could've nah.

No schedule. Just when I feel like I need it. I haven't really trimmed since the beginning of the year and haven't been protecting my ends as aggressively as last year so, I think I'm gonna trim when I flat iron next week.

Oh, and last year I used the splitender to keep splits at bay. I used it monthly for 3 months in a row when I got it. But then I put it away because the idea of "fresh ends" was addictive. :giggle:

Aint that the truth!!!!:lol:
 
It rained today. I was so cocky with my natural twistout I walked through the rain to my car w/o an umbrella. I went grocery shopping and caught a reflection of my hair in the frozen foods section...oh my good lawd...I looked like like a clown. My hair had drawn up in an attempt to get back to natural curl formation, but only half my head decided to do that. I was left with a mishappen and lopsided afro. I couldn't get back to my car quick enough.

Did you ever do a regular trim or did u use only the Splitender? I'm thinking of making the purchase to replace salon trims.

I started my HHJ with a freshly layered cut. I only used the splitender since then. I really like it. Just need to make sure the blades are sharp. I'm looking forward to using it next week. The trim isn't even noticeable and it keeps your ends fresh. I love it.
