Three weeks after ordering from Soultanicals, my items should finally be delivered today. I honestly hope that I don't even like the products because I have no intention of ordering again after that long of a wait.

I am...KIND OF....

I'm still very much debating whether to chop tomorrow (what I want) vs chop in March (original plan) vs not chopping at all and just being a straight haired natural.

Regardless, I'm done with weaves. I'm so over it. and whatever I choose to do for myself, I'm making that clear to my bf. But I know that this is important to him for whatever reason, so I don't want to be seem spiteful. Either way, I'd have to pay $40 to take my weave out and shampoo it. so i'm just shifting back and forth. i just want the decision to be mine and not feel forced.

A definite growth spurt happened in the last month. When I flat ironed for Halloween I was a definite neck length, when I flat ironed for Thanksgiving, I had my bottom layer scraping my shoulders?!

Getting like 4 bottles TJ TTT conditioner since I'm never in the area so my hair better like it

Twistout fail. Didn't dry all the way so when I fluffed it it looked like curly semi stretched poof

Your feelings should be respected. You are being incredibly patient and considerate. I hope that he extends that same consideration toward you.
 
I cancelled a date to wash my hair. Why am I laying in bed, lounging? I need to cut it out & get to work.
 
Tea tree tingle smells just like peppermints.. Love it cuz my hair feels coated After my mud wash and deep conditioning. I have to shampoo my hair ughhh
 
I swear I didn't have one broken hair detangling with v05 tea therapy. I love that it's only $1.
 
Oyin Hair Dew is everything! Normally my twists feel terrible after being washed (they get really dry and it takes forever to get them remoisturized). I rubbed them down with Hair Dew and my hair is so nice and moisturized after drying. Love it!
 
Random--I have learned I get WAY more attention from guys (and women) when my hair is curly vs straight. Like men will wave me down to come over and compliment me on m hair...even when it looks a ratty mess.

Anyone else notice this?

I get even more attention now that I have natural hair. Men and women compliment me. I been stopped at random places with people asking about my hair.
 
I'm not really sure where to put this... But this is exactly 1 year of growth.

Aw thank you everyone! I'm honestly kind of shocked. I had no idea my hair was getting as long as it is, but I'm super happy and excited for next year.

ronie You know my regimen is easy as pie. I cowash twice a week, deep condition and detangle, twist it up for a twist out or bun. I shampoo twice a month and on shampoo days I prepoo with a moisturizing conditioner. I do a protein prepoo once a month.

I use Trader Joes conditioner and shampoo, pantene dc, and JASON biotin protein conditioner. I twist with Cantu creamy hair lotion and seal my ends with shea butter. Every night I spritz with Cantu coconut spritz and seal with shea butter.

That's really it.

I ve always paid attention to your regimen cause you know I love your hair. I still think you should start a thread. Everything you did this year paid off big time.
 
I've been using the Njoy oil for 2 weeks now. I don't know about miraculous growth since it's too early to tell (plus, I'm a slow grower, so if it just boosts me up to the average 1/2 inch per month I'll be good). However, I do notice a change in my edges. I have nice, thick edges. However, I've noticed that I suddenly have a bunch of new "baby hair" (think Michael Jackson or Chili from TLC)! I guess that means that the oil is working! Hopefully, it's working all over my head like that!
 
I wish I had made the decision to loc my hair when I joined LHCF. I can't imagine the thousands of dollars I would have saved instead of spending it on weaves, braid extensions, and products that didn't work for me.:ohwell:

What are you doing to firm/tone up your body? You look great! I need something that's doable.

Give me the deets!
