See my problem is I don't want it to look like a wig. And I don't see myself going to a BSS and trying on all kinds of wigs. I would be mortified to do that. And then I don't want to buy online either because I probably won't like it and then have to go through the hassle of returning it.

Then the wigs I really like are just too rich for my blood. Like today I was watching a video of muffinismylovers ghetto behind :lol: and the wig she was wearing was lovely but I'm not trying to drop $350 on something that's going to look raggedy after a few months.

Nice Lace Front.:yep: Girl, Like I was telling Che: "Wigs have come a Long, Long way these days" They don't look nearly 'as bad' as we think they do. No more 'fake doll hair' I mean, they're out there but really:perplexed :nono:

Like the one I'm wearing, I can remember not too long ago, when my Actual Hair use to look like that. So, it's not Unbeweaveable.:lachen:Or anything. Mine has a very natural look.

You should just go browse sometime. The texture and everything now is very, very natural. It's amazing. They have "done some thangs" with Wigs.:ohwell:

Hopefully, this one will get me through the Winter and I can keep my regi up underneath.:yep:

I use the Hair Strengthener. It's a hard protein. Spray it on, get under the dryer, your hair gets hard, then you wash it out. I like it alot. Oh yeah I have the Honey Comb Treatment which is a hair rejuvenator that helps with hair loss and thickens hair. My hair really don't need to thicken up :blush: but I will continuely work on my edges bc I love buns and my edges are fragile. Everything I'm doing is working. This is also a spray that you can use with or without heat. A little goes a long way with both of them.

Tomorrow is a serious hair day for me. It will be an all day affair. I want to clarify, protein treat, and do a cassia gloss :grin:. I will be 6 months post and it will be the last time I will do my hair 3x/wk. I will start doing my hair only 2 days--Sunday & Wednesday.

I realized something recently...well it has happened on several occasions. I hate pics I really do but folx always want to take them. The perception of what my hair looks like to me and what it looks like in pics and to other folks doesn't match. Meaning it looks better than I think it looks. I was looking at some pics from last week and I was like damn my hair looks shiny and my edges were all layed down and neat at nearly 6 months post. Something I need to work on :yep:. I'm just ready to be natural but I know I can transition for at least 18 months. I'm not sure I will make it to 2 years though which is fine.

Things sound like things are really working out good for you Shay! You have great Products, You KNOW they work for you and you are Consistent. So, I know you are getting good results.

Keep it up into 2010.:grin:
 
i decided that this weekend i will purchase a magic bullet or some other type of food processor so that i can make my butters easier. actually i plan on purchasing it tomorrow.
my mix will be very simple. just shea butter, evoo, wheat germ(just a little) and MAYBE some cocasta oil.

Do You Have an Update on The Phone?:phone:
 
Soooo I was supposed to do my hair yesterday. And I did detangle and what not. And then I was like you know what, it's the last day of the year, and I wanna wear MY hair. So I'm wearing a wash and go to the game...I'm leaving in like 10 minutes...it ain't dry yet but I'm sure it'll dry more by the time I get there. I forgot how much I love my fro :yep:. So if y'all see a dark skinned black girl at the clippers game with a semi-large fro, that's me!

Oh and I used some v05 (it was strawberry something or other) since I used up the rest of my ao conditioners. Ummm this v05 is serious stuff. It detangled, cleaned, and moisturized my hair...and it smells YUMMY. I seriously might have to put aside all my "rules" (natural, no bad preservatives, no formaldehyde releasing ingredients, black owned/produced) and just stick with v05. I feel like a sell out but at least it's cheap.

Oh and what clear cellphanes/rinses do y'all like? I'm looking into those in order to help keep my hair sealed/protected and avoid incomplete splits.
 
Ya'l Imma really focus on Hair Health Next Year. I am going to stay consistent using up one product at a time :crossfingers:keep my regimen simple and just focus on getting my Hair Health On.

So, by this time next year, hopefully, I'll have a good progress report.

It's time to get down to Business.:amen:

In V05, I like the Moisture Milks, The Silky Experience and the Tea Theraphy. And I do like the Suave Tropical Coconut. (Whatever's on Sale) I think I got them for 77 or 88 Cents!:blush:

All these work well for washing out Henna/Indigo/Cassia.

And they're Free of Cones!:yep:

Try not to use that new one so you can return it.

Wait until Monday if Possible, when you see that Clown Face to Face.:rolleyes:

Perhaps she'll call tommorrow, Saturday or Sunday:perplexed

Have You Ever Thought about Trying Cassia?:look:

It will give you Mad, Blinding, Blinging, Incredible Shine and it's all Natural:yep:

If I didn't have 'Grey':look: to Cover, I'd been all up in the Cassia!

I used up my Shescentit Cococream leave-in. I will repurchase when she comes out with new products.
Click to expand...

I'd like to try it too:yep:

I think the Moisture Mist was a little too light for my Hair.:look: Currently, I tend to lean toward heavier, creamier leave-ins.:ohwell:

Perhaps when I get more hair, the Moisture Mist may work for me.

Hair Health.:look: Now that I really think about it, my hair has sustained years of damage. Chemical Damage, Color Damage, Heat Damage etc........You Name it.

That's why I signed up for a 2 year commitment because I knew it was going to take me that long especially since I was/am trying to become a DIY'er.:yep:

So, if I can get my hair on the right track in 2010...:perplexed

So, that's going to be my Focus. Hopefully, in 2011, I will be focused on something different.:grin:
 
i think the properties in shea butter works fast. when i use shea butter on my face it instantly glows and the softness lasts all day.

on a youtube video this girl said "the yellower the shea butter, the better". is that true? i know my fave is a tannish color and i always give a side eye to bright yellow shea.
