SL 2015

I bought some Kinky Curly Knot Today poo & some Goddess Curls this week & absolutely love them both! I also love my Suave for cowashing!

I fell asleep last night without retwisting my hair & had a box shaped fro when I woke up (despite wearing my bonnet) so I whipped out my emergency kit which is some moisturizer, Jbco, eco styler & CON perfect edges & put my hair in a "semi-not really struggling but it's still small" bun with a wide headband. I threw on some big earrings, big shades, lip gloss, mascara & cute scarf & headed to work.

I will be straightening my hair this weekend so I'll do a length check on Saturday morning & post.

I didn't feel like doing anything to my hair; especially wash it. I am a firm believer that when you don't feel like doing your hair; Don't !. At least for me, cause I wont really put any effort in it. So yesterday, I just re-moisturized my hair and retwisted the front. I'll post pics later on. I'm loving the ease of this protective style!!

I completely forgot about throw back Thursday yesterday. I'll upload that later on too or I might save it for next Thursday.

I've been wanting to straighten my hair. I also had planned to do it in October. It's just that everytime I think about all the stuff I would have to do to it; I just get sooo exhausted just thinking about it.

I love me some goddess curls too. I have yet to try the kinky knot stuff. One day I will. Out of the two which do you prefer better?

I'm happy. wore wigs for an entire week.

I'll be coloring my hair tonight with SM color kit.
Probably blowdry it too.

I haven't flat ironed in f o r e v e r.
Might do that too if I'm up for it.

Tomorrow is my 1 year post BC -Anniversary!
This year 1st year was easy.

Meh. Did not end up coloring my hair.

I felt like my hair had a bunch of product on it. I want the black to really stick.

Opted for a shampoo and steam instead.

Im sitting under my steamer now.

Ill color it Tuesday night since I'm off Wed -Fri next week (Birthday holiday).
 
Hey ladies! I haven't posted in awhile! I'm still rocking my fade. I just got a hair cut. I'm still rocking the purple in the front too. I am letting the top grow out now. Thought about doing some kinky twists or yarn. I may do that next month. This style is really low maintenance for me. I can literally get showered and dressed for work in 20 mins!
 
I've been steady on my journey of hair laziness. My hair (slathered in a conditioner I don't like to leave in) has been in two makeshift canerows, under a baggy for the past week...ok it could be a fair bit longer ;). The time has flown by and I don't know why I am punishing myself (oh the detangling) with this behaviour but I am not about to start playing in my hair when I just have not been bothered lately.
I will fix up tomorrow. I'm starting to itch lol.

The Kinky Curly was the shampoo so I used it to wash & the Goddess Curls I used for a twist out. I hadn't gotten to use the Kinky Curly curling product yet but I will be purchasing it soon to try it out. The Goddess Curls was my best twist out yet. I follow their page on IG. @frizzfreecurls.
 
I haven't posted a LC in forever. So I did a length check with wet hair prior to straightening then I did one after I straightened & clipped some ends which was badly needed. The pic on the left is from Friday morning when I washed & the pic on the right was this evening. I didn't want to do one after only trimming because I wanted to see my progress in order to know where I had gotten. I'm hoping to be at least SL in the back by Dec 31st!

Editing to add: I went to a wedding reception on Saturday & slipped across the restaurant floor & fell on my wrist. She hurts like he!! I had to leave from there & go directly to the Urgent care. I almost felt embarrassed because my first thought was "how am I gone get my twist outs done?!" The diagnosis was a sprain so thank God that is all but I have to wear a wrist brace because rotating my wrist feels awful!

Tuck n roll

*YAWN*

I was so bored I bought a hooded dryer. Now I put in silk elements heat protection, flat twist to stretch and sit under the dryer. Needed some dang variety. I do enjoy the extra stretch the heat provides. Less ssk.

The upside is that I can now wear a comb for my tuck n roll without the teeth showing through. I tried last year but it was too short and low density for hair candy. Slowly moving up!
 
When I started this challenge earlier this year, I was going hard. But I've had some serious situations this year that have brought a lot of stress. This stress caused setbacks. I'm realizing that some of my setbacks were probably from an iron deficiency too:( So I've decided to go natural. Hopefully that will help.
