Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

my friend asked me the same thing. it's like they have never heard of such a thing. i always wash my hair at least once a week. since i have been able to take care of my own hair since i was 12 years old, i have washed my hair once a week.

we have so much to teach and share in this hair game.....

winona, I was wondering if you were going to sleep on them. That's a loooot of curlformers. I bet it did look cute. You must have a million spirals on your head right now :lol:
 
Try samsbeauty.com They have really good prices and fast shipping. I recommend La fasta, La Frisco, Mint Slice, and Half Wig It's A Wig Natural Yaki for good styles. With the curly wigs I recommend an elastic headband.

Meh. I found the "asian hair shop" where you get weaves and wigs in this little city. It was hot in there and full of just junk... though some might have been interesting to look at if the store wasn't so cramped, dark and hot.

The half wigs were hanging about 10 feet above my head. Couldn't really get a good look at them. I bought one even though when they got me one from the back room, I didn't like it. But those stores make me feel weird, like they will talk bad about my entire ethnicity if I don't buy one after I made them go get the darn thing out of some dark hole.

Meh.

faithVA gurl I ran out with 60 so I had to run to Sally with a huge chunk out in the front to pick up 4 more packs. I posted a pic in the thread " Everyday Hair...The Pretty, The Nappy, The Crazy...Post Your Hair RIGHT NOW!!!" I ended up with 86 curlformers. My puppies felt so sorry for me they kept whinning and cuddling up next to me. Normally they dont want anything to do with me while they are sleep (They love to sleep:grin:)
 
In idle conversation yesterday (with a yt woman) my hair was identified as 'long' - not one to shun a compliment....I responded with "ya, it is." :giggle: Although I don't really find it long:lachen:

winona,

Nice spirals. I bet the people at Sally's see all types of things :lol: To bad they don't offer a delivery service.

That's funny about the puppies.
 
I've been co-washing, gelling, and phony ponying it for the last few days. And I know the semi-daily manipulation is alot for some folks, my grass is LOVING it! I didn't know if I'd be able to hang because my hair is hot in this weather.... but it's really working for me.

I would love to go with a wng but my hair has changed since I first started my natural journey. The different textures are wild. I want to try a few of the other Giovanni products because my hair is feeling the direct leave-in. Since it's so light, I have to apply twice daily :ohwell: and that means that I could really go through some product when I co-wash every other day. I won't post an update until the end of the year so I won't have that "watched pot" syndrome lol.

I thought the same thing the other day. I think her comp is out of commission at the moment. She hasn't been able to post any videos either on her blog and YT channel.

NikkiQ, Thanks. I have been thinking about it for a few days. I thought she went on vacation. Computer problems can be a show stopper. My "h" and "g" keys don't work on my netbook. Do you know how hard it is to type on a hair board without the letter "h". :spinning:

Iluvsmuhgrass, Can't wait to see your hair. :yep:
 
i spritzed my hair for the first time in ages. still have it up in those 2 flat twists. water, vo5 free me freesia and oyin hair dew in the spray bottle.

i really hope i can go back to work with some extra length when summer is over. ((eyebrow wiggle)) ive never really gotten that "summer growth spurt" that everyone talks about, but maybe this'll be my year? haha.
 
(Don't know if I should post this in the hair forum or the health forum..so.. yeah.)

At the BSS behind two very overweight black ladies. Each spent almost $200 on weave, while having a conversation on how "expensive" healthy food is.

Felt some kinda way about that.

I have a bad habit of pulling out strands of hair. I pull out like 3-5 a day. NO clue why. On the one hand, I do like to examine it, root to tip and stretch it, measuring it against my finger. But it's as if I HAVE to do it. Ah, the oddness that is my life... :look:

That's funny. My ex was worrying me about toothpaste and deodorant because it was going to cause cancer yet smoking a pack a day and drinking a six pack. :lol: Whatever man! <I know not hair related but crazy like the weave/health food thing>.

And there was a thread a few months ago about people who pull out strands of hair. They mentioned the name of the "condition". It seems to be somewhat common.

I know before LHCF I was tooo embarrassed to do things like run out with hair rollers and such. Now I am like I dont even care as long as my hair is healthy and happy:grin:
 
I'm thinking of doing a corrective relaxer. All of my hair seems pretty straight except for the front right section, which almost looks like it hasn't been relaxed at all :ohwell:. I'll decide after I wash so I can see how much of my hair is underprocessed and how underprocessed those areas are (if they can easily straighten with heat/rollers, I won't bother with a corrective).
 
I need to get an accurate goal so I should probably straighten my hair. Im getting a relaxer today so maybe I will go get it straightened next week. I never really wear my hair down so I can never tell how long it is. Lol That sounds like something a natura head would say.
 
i think this is the only thread i can say this in without getting a blast.............

I DELETED AS I DON'T WANNA GET BANNED :grin:

Apologies and Goodbye
 
I fell in love with my hair today :kiss3:. I took my ugly/messy workday bun down and saw how thick and textured my hair is and just fell in love again! It may sound silly, but I needed to see the beauty in my hair today. It's been a challenging summer with the heat and humidity. And summer just started!
