Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[ItsMeLilLucky]

When I start exercising and eating healthy, my hair growth should be off the chain. Cause I've been growing hair from a bed of Hot Cheetos for the last 2 years

I used to love hot Cheetos, especially with cheese and meat. That stuff tears my stomach up now

@bolded is so funny. I feel like I've been doing the same thing

 

[ItsMeLilLucky]

I did a thing, albeit a somewhat shoddy thing, but still a thing

I refused to wear my upart without something covering my hair, so here I present to you: FrankenCap.

It’s held together by faith, needle and thread.

LOL!!!!!! They catch me like that sometimes, and I have to rethink my life decisions . Stomach be shredded!! I'm giving Hot Cheetos up in the new year

I was so excited to wash my hair, but I'm having this sciatica flare up (I think) and I have to pick my battles

I got my henna+conditioner mix spot on today. My hair is juicy and moisturized.

I cut the back of my hair completely off on July 5th of this year and I don't even think I have 2 inches of hair to show for it. Why can't I just have a normal growth rate? I know it all comes down to retention but it takes so long to grow anything to retain.

A good friend of mine who has been natural for the last 15 years, admitted that she was scared to tell me she relaxed her hair. I reassured her that
I can only respect her decision. We laughed sharing bad hair day stories as relaxed and natural.

Well my ponytail roller set was a fail. Good thing I was just practicing and not trying to go anywhere tonight or I’d be sad. I also burned my ear trying to accomplish this.

Darn, all that hard work and it didn’t pay off

It’s ok tho. I’m not sure where I went wrong. My hair was soaking wet and super detangled. Maybe it was the products. One side got really poofy when I combed it out.l even though it was completely dry. It’s wrapped up now. I’ll keep it wrapped until right before I leave for work. I’ll put it in a bantu knot bun for work for the next 2 days to keep it semi stretched then on Friday I’ll set it on flexi rods with a little serum for the weekend.

Humidity and glycerin maybe?

I never even made it out of the house. I think it’s my poor technique. I’m going to practice some more. Some parts are straight and silky. I think I’ll use a setting foam for my next experiment.

Anybody have details on a knock off puff cuff thats more affordable? I'm not spending 20 bucks on a round banana clip. LOL.

I decided to revisit washing in sections today and now I understand why so many people do it. It sucks on short hair but at my current length, washing is six flat twist made doing my hair so easy. I just need to keep an eye on my scalp, it'd be too easy to miss a spot and get build up.

Guess it's time for a big chop.

I love how supportive this forum is regardless of whether a person is natural, relaxed or texlaxed. You can't find another online hair environment like it.

I want to try yarn locs. I need to do something to keep my hair separated.

Hot oil treatments definitely deliver. It seems my hair has regained some elasticity.

Which oil do you use? I don't remember ever doing a H.O.T before.

My mom used to have us do them when we were little, it's pretty old school so I don't see people doing them as much lately. I use coconut oil, I find it works better as a HOT than trying to use it as a leave in. Back then we would just use olive oil.
