Relaxed Hair Thread

I'm wearing a wig all winter. I can't take the wind or the cold :nono:

Yep. It's not cold enough where I am to winterize anything but I'm wearing weave for the next 6 months. Can't wait for my 3+ inches of growth I'm gonna see next summer. Big fat buns and sundresses :lick:

girl you better do the inversion method while you're doing it! you could get 6 inches.
 
Did a 2 minute protein treatment yesterday on 3 weeks post hair. My strands are really thanking me for the protein boost!
 
I'm gonna be washing today and Monday. The only thing allowing me to see the positive in this is using new products.

Combing my hair daily, like a thorough detangling is a necessity. Its a mental transition I had to make after being natural a good while.

I made a u part wig. Gonna test it out hopefully it doesn't look crazy on lol!
 
I give my computer the blank stare when naturals come in threads suggesting people flatiron or rollerset and blow out their roots instead of relaxing.
 
sharifeh I was going to suggest this. Its easier to camouflage edges.

that is really super cute

now how do i do it? :rofl: :rofl:

Another option I was lightly considering was relaxing annually but who wants to go the entire year like they are transitioning repeatedly? Im either going to be all the way natural (with a BKT :duck:) :look: or I am going to be all the way relaxed. I dont have time to be trying to do some exotical special type of relaxed head mess

it looks like we're in the same boat SuchaLady same exact boat
if if go natural i would still want to wear my hair straight so i would do bkt
im also thinking of being texturized but is that even worth it???
 
sharifeh I think we should BKT :look: it wears off if we have have a change of heart. I have a tutorial I can link to that hairstyle too I have to find it first. How many weeks post are you? How you opposed to a weave? :look:

im 3 months post right now
i think we should do it too

im opposed to a weave because ive never had one, i heard its itchy...also isnt it expensive?? but if i transition, the idea of a weave is getting more and more attractive, they are easy to upkeep right?
but is it true that it absolutely takes away your hairline? thats scary
 
:lol: Its not itchy. Your hairline will not come out. And its only expensive the first time :look: once you get over sticker shock its rather addictive. They are extremely easy to upkeep. I throw flexi rods in my hair at night.. Remove, shake in the morning, and go. I do my own though so I have a lot of control over it. Its a life saver :yep:

EnExitStageLeft SuchaLady, the lies you tell *in my Tamar voice*. It gets cold in GA. It snowed one year when I was in Atlanta. I get what you're saying though --- it's hot in comparison to NY and other states. FL is the same as GA.
 
divachyk

Chile thats North GA, me and SuchaLady are in South GA. Its hot year round round these parts lol.

I'mma have to look at a map to determine what cities are South GA. SuchaLady EnExitStageLeft I've been to Atlanta, Augusta, Warner Robins and Donaldsonville. I think that's it.

divachyk Yeah EnExitStageLeft is right. Im on the coast. It doesnt really get cold here at all anymore. I feel like it gets hotter each year :lol: I saw snow for the first time freshman year in college 3 years ago. Couldnt tell me nothing! I had a blast playing outside with my dorm buddies. :lol::lol:
 
Now that I think about it I bought a peacoat last year on Black Friday (28 freaking dollars. Can someone say winning?!) and never wore the darn thing! It never even got cold enough :whyme:
 
SuchaLady

GA doesn't have winters, just really cold summers :lachen:

I must be experiencing a super cold winter. I'm right outside of Atl and it was 37 when I got ready to go running this am. I had to do an about face and head back to bed on that one. Sorry for dipping in your convo. EnExitStageLeft and SuchaLady :lachen:

I think it's time to take my butt back to Jacksonville, FL. It's too dang cold!

Atlanta does get really cold though! I never understood how different parts of the state have drastically different weather.

SuchaLady, that's just like FL. I live in Northwest FL near the AL border and we're the coldest point in FL. Central and South FL have awesome weather year around.
