Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Lissa0821]

Went to my favorite BS for a new wig and found the shelves full of the Eco Style Flax seed and Coconut gel. I picked it up and put it back down. Eco Styler gel is not my friend no matter how many raves I see on youtube.

It's $8.19 with your Sally's card. Link. If they do the whole line, it could get very interesting.

ETA: They've got a Curl and Style Milk dupe too.

Technique, the tool and the grease

Sometimes I use keracare cream press on my roots to prevent reversion

I wish I would have seen this earlier! I used to have some. I didn't even think to do that. I do use a pressing comb on my roots sometimes. I have an electric one.

I hope they make a dupe of the Manuka Honey & Mafura Oil conditioner and JBCO shampoo.

I'm back from my vacay. I had installed large Havana twists. I just took them down a couple of days ago. I washed my hair and I am currently wigging it out of laziness. I need a vacay from my vacay.

I will pick this up today!

I will pick this up today!

Update on how it works. I saw it today in Sally's but since I've never used the original, I need someone to tell me how it compares.

Been interested in trying since traceykiss uses it for WNG and since we have the same texture, I've been successful with using and doing what she does. Thanks.

I experienced a horrible case of heat damage to just about every strain of hair on my head. It is one year later and my hair is thick and full with spiral curls. I also had a couple bald spots pop up as well due to stress and medications but every last spot has completely filled in. I would have never thought in a million years I would be natural after 30+ years of relaxing my hair but now I wouldn't have any other way.

@MilkChocolateOne
I got some Creme press today! It's going to be hot tomorrow, so thanks for putting that out there!

Went to Target today to see all of the Shea Moisture products untouched. I cackled at that.

My PJism has decreased significantly ever since I figured out what my hair hates.

I feel a tiny urge to do something "different" with my hair for Mother's Day. I'm going to resist and NOT drive to Sally's to get a new gel.

Good luck with that! Lol what do you wanna do differently? You should get it, it's Mother's Day!

Lol. I'm safely back at the house, no hair purchase made.

I don't know! I just wanted neat/cool hair for tomorrow. I think I might try a flexirod set or chunky twist out. If I try a new protein treatment, hopefully that will satisfy the urge for "something new."

I had stopped using MSM regularly over the winter since my seasonal allergies were not a problem and nagging little injuries are not bothering me. Why are my roots (2-3" worth) acting worse (easily frizzing, drier) than my ends? Starting today, I am back to take 1-2 tsp of MSM in concord grape juice. I will know for sure in 4-6 months it was the absence of MSM that made the difference. If so, this is crazy! Are we that deficient in sulfur in our food supply?

 

[Coilystep]

@YvetteWithJoy what new gel? I'm asking for a friend.

Lol! Hey, lady!

I should have written "new-to-me" gel. That Mane Choice biotin gel. I think I remember reading that you used it and liked it, is that correct?

How does it taste in the grape juice? Have you tried it in plain water? I have a bottle staring at me but I'm scared to try it because it's probably nasty.

Darn I already have that. Carry on. Yes I liked. I need to use it again.

It has a sharp, bitter taste, but the concord grape tones it down. I suggest 16-20 oz to 1/8 tsp of powder as a start and increase the amount by an 1/8 tsp each week. I have gotten used to it over the years because I love the results.

But I hate the dreams.
