Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I dont think I could go natural. I can handle my relaxed hair and atleast 2 people ask me monthly if Im natural already. Why do something if I already know Im not up for the challenge? I hate doing my hair. Its not therapeutic or fun for me so thats that. Not to mention my straight hair is a breeze to take care of. Too bad I hate flat irons. :ohwell: But why go natural if Im just going to straighten it all the time? I am going to work on not getting as many perms a year though. That is my happy medium.

I'm getting my hair straightened for my "surprise" baby shower tomorrow. I really hope I'm closer to waist lenght than the last time I straightened. Although, I've been dying to cut a few inches off :scratchch
 
I turned my mini twists into micro twists. I love how they look. They are not full, but I am okay with that.

I just pray I don't reget it during the takedown. I hope I can make these last at least 3 weeks, which would be a big deal for me since I can't seem to keep a hairstyle for long periods.
 
It took me a year to embrace that fingers are actually pretty good detanglers:grin: Not to mention you get to really feel/know your hair detangling with the digits.
 
After 8 hours my braids were still wet. So I tried to blow dry them this morning but I haven't used an accessory in soooo long I am clueless. How long does it take to dry my braids? I tried the diffuser than that nozzle piece. Then I looked at the back and that middle piece was looking all raggedy and matted like it usually does. Ok the back definitely has to go up because it doesn't hang.

The back looks good but the rest is crazy looking. I'm later now. It looks like a puff. Ok I'm trying that stretch band. Doubled is too loose. Uh oh - has anyone ever choked themselves to death trying to triple wrap this thing. Ok let's try the stocking.

Ok I'm trying to do a little something to my edges. Ok attempt 3, whew I think that my work. Lawd, that's tight. I have to go to work.

They make it look so easy on yt. :perplexed:
 
Huh.....never could understand how a person with hair in bad condition, holding the same length for years can give hair advice.
 
^ I will never understand many things about this board. :look:

Yup. I was glancing through a thread and saw someone with one year progress pics of the same length, chewed up ends and uhh..well. You can't really tell a person flat out they should focus on their bad hair instead of focusing on giving advice, but whatever. The progress pics don't lie :drunk:

Must've missed that but I get what you're saying. I would explain more but you know everyone likes to lurk in these parts. :look:
 
Going to go and get a hair cut today so I can have some shape to my hair when it is curly. Still want to keep my length. I print screened the lady in the ouidad ad on this site. THAT is the shape I want, dang it.!

Wish me luck!!!! I am in a new town, so this is a new stylist!
 
So Yea I tried curlformers after watching a million utubes and they kept slipping out of my hair. I tried different sized sections BOOOO. Before I give up completly I am going to rewatch utube and try again on Sunday when I have plenty of time to tinker around:)

I had an epithany on the way home from a ceremony today:) I took home and tried the curlformers again on two pieces of hair in the back worked perfectly:) YEAAAA I am doing a curlformer set this weekend:grin:
 
All of this hair was getting overwhelming, so I decided to heat train. I straightened my hair for the first time since last Fall and gave myself a major trim. Even though I'm back to BSL, I don't mind. Natural hair grows like a weed.
 
I have no flat ironing skills. All this work to flat iron my hair and the heat protectant and argan oil was too much and left me greasy (see siggy pic). I thought it would get better overnight. Maybe some of the oil would be absorbed by my scarf or something. Nawh yo. Looking like a wet cat over here. Going out tonight... in a ps. :rolleyes: Whatever. Headed to youtube to see if someone can show a sista how to flat iron without turning into an oil spill.
 
Sigh, I'm sorry but this forum doesn't uplift me like it used to. It's just laughable these threads with unnecessary arguing. :lachen:

nappystorm - Girl, take that and be blessed! Lucky to have such a thing so few people have. :yep: Who knew we were hideous? I figured it out after I found out that there was another place to discuss all the members and the "drama" that takes place around here. :look: I don't know what's sadder, the fact that a hair forum always has bickering or that there's a place on the outside to discuss said bickering. :look:

As I concurred in the other thread... what in the HELL is going on?! :lachen: :lachen: There ain't even a reason to be acting out like this!

JJamiah, I get what you're saying. For real though, I thought that was an innocent thread. Usually I like to get silly in threads I know are just obviously going south anyway but this time was just ridiculous, there was no reason for things to get out of hand. I just hate when grown women start to e-thug and e-gangfight, not cute. :lachen:
