I need to do my ApHogee 2 step soon...

And then I need to book an appointment to straighten my haiiirrrr!

It's literally been a year since I've flat ironed it and I want to see how it looks. Not sure if I want to do it now or over Thanksgiving...

Hmmmmmmm

At thanksgiving! So you can swang it on the family and look great in the holiday photos.


I remember people always waiting till the holidays to wear their hair down.
 
Dang I forgot how good it felt to maintain straight hair. Wrap hair at night, unwrap in the morning & go! Shooooooot I forgot how it feels just to run my paddle brush down my hair without snagging & tangles. Straight hair can be such a break from curly hair sometimes.

I would probably do the rinse after the protein treatment. Your hair will be in better shape to receive the rinse, plus rinses don't last long; so putting a rinse in 1st & then doing the protein treatment will lessen ur time with color due to the added wash.

I didn't do either. I'm so hair lazy. Thanks I will do it on Tuesday though.
 
This paddle brush was a really good idea. It's wide enough to hold the varying lengths of my ends and makes cold air tension blow-drying so much easier. Now I just wish the cold setting on this handle-less dryer could be a touch cooler.
 
I'm thinking about making a few u-part wigs and wigging it for all of next year. I'll buy the hair from the aliexpress 11.11 sale this tuesday.

She just said that if I kept using it my hair would be coated in a way that moisturizer or deep conditioner wouldn't penetrate. It would become more dry and brittle cause the henna would block anything else from getting into the strand.she said I'm better with just doing a rinse or semi perm

If you are low porosity it is a good possibility. I used henna for a year because I thought it would be better than color. But over time my hair did get brittle.

Henna affects everyone's hair differently.
 
As my hair was looking and feeling great I really didn't want to wash it :look:

But I did anyway forced myself to I hope I get the same results again
 
I can't stand being by ignorant black people that put down their hair. Let alone put me in that category. I didn't grow up with N word and it makes me cringe. "Yeah we don't have the straight hair, we have that N hair!" Are you kidding me?
 
^^^She pissed me off. I swear if a violin was playing it would have stopped playing. I swear I dread bringing up my kids around her. I know they won't be around her all the time but I don't want my kids coming on saying stuff like that
 
Planning on using the Moroccan Oil Intense Hydrating Mask as my next DC :)

Also, my air drying session went much smoother & faster this weekend. Last time I forgot to put NTM leave in on my roots before blow drying. This time my hair dried a lot smoother, less tangled, and didn't feel parched.

Straight hair is such unknown territory to me. I've been so gentle and cautious all week and I feel like a different person lol. For this upcoming week I want to play with curly styles before I wash it, so I moisturized and put in 4 Bantu knots. I've never done Bantu knots before so it's a hit or miss. I just hope they don't come out while I'm sleeping. If I knew where my Flexi rods were I would've done that instead..

Lilmama1011 I just had a similar conversation with my sister. She was talking about her one year old daughter and told me she hopes her hair doesn't change so she could have a decent grade of hair. I told her she sounded ignorant and all hair is good with a comb. She then proceeded to explain that she didn't want her to have bad hair like our 4c sister. Just ignorant!
 
I will wait until this weekend to take out my twists. I miss my hair so much and I've decided to big chop. I'm sooo over dealing with the devil (my demarcation line) Everything is smooth sailing on both sides until it get to the border :nono:
 
My hair has been feeling un usually silky since my wash few weeks back

Not sure what it is either the wen fig or the shea moisture purification mask .......

My hair is so soft. I just reset my hair, moisturized and sealed again from yesterday because after taking out my perm rods today, they were still damp and the curls hung real low and was more curly loose wavy. So I reset them for school for tomorrow
 
I love my soft N hair that's so easy to detangle :rolleyes: yeah I dwell on things too much, especially if it got to me deeply. Why are we the only race that seem to be ignorant well into the later years about ourselves
 
so i big chopped. Left dc on it overnight because i didnt know how i was going to style it. today i just moisturized and twisted took forever but it was worth it. Sticking to my wig regimen through the winter but i am loving my curls and coils!!
 
Can't wait for my hooded dryer to arrive. I hate sleeping in flexing rods.

Also, I think my hair may prefer diluted conditioner, whenever I mix my conditioner with water for a leave in my hair always feels sooo good. Better than when I use it straight...maybe it's just tresemme naturals.

Going to the Fabric store today to pick up some satin so I can work on lining all my 50-11 beanies. Should only take me the rest of the year to finish them all. lmbo
 
I have a confession.. I don't moisture or seal my hair in sections... It takes too long. But if I want to see what this no breakage fairytale land is like, I guess I better start doing that. I did it this morning. My hair is weighed down, but feels good! I oiled my scalp too! I used castor oil, but very lightly.
 
I seriously want to relax. I'm around predominantly more people with naturally straight and it's making me want to say "I got length too and it's healthier than yours" lol. I need to keep trucking it to 12 weeks though. Can't wait to December
