Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Sharpened]

I might have hairnorexia. Just got lots of compliments on my hair.

Yes, admitting to the problem is half the solution.

I

With the low porosity leave in, I don't have to seal.


I want to try the conditioner to see how my hair feels after.

I like the conditioner as well as the leave in and shampoo but I feel like something is missing without the DC. Usually I add heat with lo po rinse out and keep it moving.

Ready to shampoo my hair. Thursday needs to come faster

 

[LavenderMint]

Why does it seem like my hair is changing colors?? With product it looks black but when it's freshly washed and conditioned, it's more like a chestnut brown. Even in the sun, it looks brown. What is going on here?!

 

[Moih Aunaturel]

I'm wondering if fenugrec or kapur kachli or orange powders lead to more volume (?).

I have this impression for my roots. Maybe it's the new growth and the result of taking one of these supplement if not all bamboo, nettle, AVG, omega 3.

First impressions of Obia babassu :

Very very light, which i like.
Smells like what walking through the amazon would, not sure i like this ( thankfully it doesn't linger!)

Applies easily but slip not the greatest.

Left hair soft and defined and airy, liked the results

Now to wait for tomorrow to see if airy soft conditioned hair lasts

Can't wait to wash my hair later. This is about to be the best wash day in history. Full spa day in a quiet family free house.

I heard an advert for Ovation on the radio. I could not believe my ears.

I'm liking the results of using a little styler on my twists. Will have to keep this up if I keep getting this kind of reduction in frizz.

I have so much product being shipped this week, I'm having a hard time deciding what I will start using first . Problem is I want to use them all right now .

 

[YvetteWithJoy]

I really need to figure out why DevaCurl Decadence One Condition defines my curls.

I was going to skip applying it today but sheesh: Zero definition at my roots without it.

Off to examine the ingredients.

Why? (I'm unfamiliar with this item.)

Crazy moisturization! I think it's whatever that 'milk' is that isn't in the regular One Condition.

Today was supposed to be the best wash day ever...instead I'm fighting monster a headache that's trying to become a migraine. I'll try later or tomorrow

 

[KinkyRN]

Since the hurricane came through my area I have noticed less humidity and my hair is acting crazy. I now see I am going to have to avoid glycerin all together. Digging in my stash for tried and tested (pre- SM lo po era) products.

Some days I'm just over my hair.

I really have not a clue for a good style that fits me work wise unless its a protective style. I look young, which isnt a bad thing but I just would like to be able to style my own hair decently.

I have two low ponytail puffs. Im just clueless. I normally dont care but a sister will be 40 in 2 years.

What are you trying to do?

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

What are you trying to do?

Im not trying to do anything, thats the problem.

I dont like my hair in two strand twists. They shrink entirely too much. I look much better with longer hair. anything that doesnt frame my chin, I do not like.

Even if I stretch my twists, they still fall above my cheeks. I dont heat style. My braidouts suck, my twist out stucks. I can only bun so much. -_-

Shrinkage is a beast. You'd never know hair above my ear actually reaches my collarbone.

 

[YvetteWithJoy]

Squeeeeeeeeeee!

I can hardly WAIT until next wash day. Pass-purchased products just arrived!

I find it strange that I have moved from having a shoe-thing to having a book-thing to now having a hair-products-thing.

You never could have TOLD ME when I was relaxed that I would ever be into hair products some day.

ETA: Two of the three smell DIVINE!

Got an asymmetrical bob cut today! I love it! My ends look and feel great as well.

 

[Napp]

I am loving this once a week wash day thing I'm doing right now. my hair is so soft and I do not feel the need to moisturize or refresh during the week. I just fluff and go after taking out my pineapples. I hope I see better progress now that I'm not manipulating my hair so much

I don't think I can do wash n go's where I use gel from root to tip anymore I did that this morning for my wash and go and put it in a ponytail. A little while ago when I was getting ready for bed, my ends seemed tangled as h*ll compared to me just leaving conditioner in and sealing with oil and I found a couple of single strand knots.

Which gel did you use?

Last night was the first time I have been able to wrap my hair since going natural four years ago. I'm proud of me!

I tested the tensile strength of a few sheds, very hard to break! As I was dry harping a coil, one strand came out at the root instead of snapping. Ouch, it still stings hours later. I declare the oat water wash a success.
