Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

GettingKinky

All I do is apply about a quarter size amount of oil per section after rinsing my DC. I then layer my rinsing/detangling conditioner on top and let it all sit while I apply it to each section (usually 4). After I've done each section, I'll take them down one by one in the shower detangle and then rinse till its all gone. Once I'm done rinsing it clean, I'll finish with a lukewarm water rinse.

HTH'S :)
 
First time posting here but annywho...I been a hardcore weave wearer(all types) for about 8 yrs with occasional breaks but the past two months of wearing my natural has really made it hard for me to go back...I made a wig with "virgin brazilian" hair and lace closure that came out really good but I cant bring myself to wear it...maybe it just too hot? I feel kind of naked bc im hair is only shoulder length but I also feel free at the same time...
 
My Darcy's DC mask arrived yesterday and the consistency seems really similar to jessicurl's deep treatment. I'm so annoyed with the steel lined plastic bottles so if the darcy's can replace the jessicurl I'll be pleased
 
Ok so I decided to visit my old stylist to get some highlights since I'm kind of iffy about letting new people put chemicals in my hair. Anyway I feel like I should have went to the stylist I went to back in April. The picture on the left is how I looked when I left the salon back in April with the new stylist. The picture on the left is from today. I don't really like how my ends look they look raggedy because they didn't get that straight. It's so strange to me because when I went to her in high school she would get my natural hair so straight it looked like it was relaxed. She has changed her technique since then. Next month I will be going to the new stylist I tried and may get the color a little bit brighter.

I thought my short wig made me look older but I got asked for an ID today (Im 31). Dh is 24 and he never gets ID'd. What the heck lol
 
I had to do a "splash challenge" at work this morning so I wore a pony tail. When I watched the video, it looked so skinny and frail! SAD!!!! It is probably the oil because I Prepooed overnight to wash today after the "splash" but still I feel bad about my poor skinny hair! When oh when will I have the hair I want?!?!?!
 
When I detangle my hair in the shower I put the shed hair on the shower wall to remove once I step out. Pulling giant balls of hair out of the drain sucks and I don't like the hair catchers.

One morning I had stayed over SO's place and heard him yell. I thought the water went cold for a sec since he was quiet after that, so I went back to sleep.

I must've forgotten to remove the hair since he told me later that night when he got in the shower he saw something big on the wall(we both have terrible eyesight). He thought it was a giant spider and hollered lol.

Please tell me how my natural 4a/4b hair is more detangled after doing a wash and go and sleeping with a pineapple..
Just doesn't make any sense. When I twist it up, it mats and tangles but let it go free and it's happy.. :nono:

myronnie I'm relaxed but the same thing happens with my new growth. If I wear my hair out, my roots stay detangled, but if I bun consecutively, they are more likely to mat and lock together.
 
Finally decided to wash my hair. This NG i tell ya. Lounging with conditioner in my hair and a grocery bag on top....cheapie style but it gets the job done while i sip on some tea in the ET.
 
My drain in my bathroom got clogged again..dad says it's from grease and oils down the drain.. I feel super bad because I prepoo with oils consistently :( he had to come over and manually clear the line a couple yrs ago and it wasn't easy. Of course he yelled at me but he said to just use less oils :S

So i washed the conditioner out. Set my blow dryer setting on High Cool and it took me 15mins to dry my hair 95%. i detangled my NG and length with my fingers as i blow dryed. I lost little to no hair in the process and i'm pleased :yep:

Thanks spellinto I'm glad I'm not the only one that has an issue with twisting/putting my hair up for long amounts of time!
I detangled yesterday after 2 days of wearing it in a wash n go and there was a lot of shed hair..I think all the shed hair just keeps trapped over time and things get crazy

OMG lol........
 
I should stop wearing my hair up in buns and just sport a messy updo with my jaw clip. Wearing my hair like this today and it looks really cute :)
 
I think I finally have my products sorted out that I want to stick with for a while. Posting here so I'll have it on record when I think about changing my mind:lol:

Keracare 1st lather shampoo
Keracare hydrating detangling shampoo
Affirm 5 in 1 reconstructor
Nexxus emergencee
Nexxus, chi, or keracare leave in
Keracare overnight moisturizing treatment
Give or take a styling product(setting lotion, foam, serum)

I would go with Nairobi products but everything listed above is available to me on the ground.

I've got so many hair products that I don't know what I want to use. Should I use up stuff (CJ curl rehab and Curly Que renew) or pop open some new stuff (ST, NG, Claudies, Obia)? That's why I can use up stuff :(
