Hi, ladies.
How y'all doing? I'm feeling great! Almost ready for my massing product purge!
So, phew, okay!: All passes are gone!
Backstory (it's long, so obviously skip if you desire
):
It's my birthday month, and I have this internal desire to find peace about my hair by my birthday. As I mentioned above, my recent strategy/practices had me kind of amped up about my hair. Too much so. I've been researching galore, asking galore, posting galore, trialing galore, etc.
I appreciate the LHCF lades, my relatives, and especially my husband and mom for trying to keep from going bananas over this!
I'm pretty sure hubby and mom got worried about me, and I'm so grateful for their humor, support, and help. They have literally applied treatments, detangled, scalp massaged, talked products and techniques, turned comedic . . . I know they are not used to seeing me so caught up in my hair and the forum! Also, I think I irritated some LHCF folks with all my posts and threads. I hope not but if so hope they can just overlook me.
I think being trapped inside (with my special needs little guy) sends me to SM a little too much. It's so isolating and SM is easy to go to. I'm going to try to pull back a bit and exercise with little guy instead. Win-win.
Anyhoo, with my November pass I purchased:
1. the Komaza protein treatment because literally scores of folks have told me I must try it. I want to heed their advice, This was NOT a frivolous purchase: This was about trying to prevent knots, tangles, and breakage. I ordered a sample of their aloe gel and Califia moisturizer along with it. Samples don't count!!! Yay!
2. a $60 standing steamer instead of the $260 high-end one I really wanted (I just wouldn't let myself pull the trigger on that awesome one)
My Soultanicals finally arrived (October pass purchase) and a free product arrived: Darcy's Botanicals Curling Creme Gel. Y'allllllllll!!!!! The DB CCG smells AH-MAZIIIIIIIIING! Has me eyeing my mock cart that contains DB's pumpkin seed conditioner and DB's gel.
That was a lot! But I'm feeling soooooo peaceful about my hair and spending more strategically. This thread has been GREAT for me. Thank you, ladies, for the support!
