David and my mother are making me do a natural water birth. Did it hurt even with medicine?

Yes it did i had and epidural(sp?). But i heard that water births are easier and they help with the pain and birthing. If i would have known that then i would have had her in the tub:look:.

Yeah the water births apparently making the process more like.....doing a bowel movement.

Did you experience hair loss/shedding during the pregnancy?
 
I saw you , i know what you did last summer:look::lachen:.
I always miss stuff around here and I am happier for it. Seriously I really debated on joining this forum because sometimes a bunch of black women together is :nono:. Okay moving on...

I did a braidout on dry hair last night that I loved today. I used Qhemet's Honey Bush Tea Gel (whatev, not quite sure about the actual name) and sat under the dryer for about 30 minutes. I had big rollers on the ends too. I took them out before I went to sleep. Took the braids out this morning with Afroveda's Shea Amla on my fingers. Hair was moisturized all day. My first successful braidout. Slicked the front of my hair back with Qhemet's Honey Hydrating Balm.

I'm getting all big & bold and doing flexirods tonight since today is a hair day. We'll see how that works out. I believe it's supposed to rain tomorrow so I may have to pull it up anyway but I have to do this stuff while I am in the mood. At this point Honey Bush Tea Gel and Shea Amla are keepers. Hopefully this flexirod set will hold me through Saturday because that's the next time I will be able to do my hair.

I finished a bottle of Amla oil tonight. I still have one more bottle. It is a keeper.
 
i know im starting to sound like a cry baby but i hate having twists in, even when they are cute, because i cant deep condition in the middle of the week. or do whatever i want to do with my hair when i want to do it.

also i have been thinking about doing a second bc to get rid of some of my heat damage in my bang area. it sucks that thats the only place the damage is but i cant just cut that area because then id look silly lol. i have no problem at all doing another bc but its so cold and the only thing i knew how to do on that short of hair was co wash and go lmao.
 
btw: I Found My Satin Rollers. So, I can put the Curling Iron away. I got like 36 for about $6.00 and some change.:grin:

I Hope they're small enough.:yep:

In 2010, I may buy some Caruso's. Do Ya'll think they come in itty bitty sizes?

I don't want them/can't use them if they are all Large.:look:

I Need Like Baby Ones.:babyg:
 
are carusos the ones you sit in hot water? i have never seen them in smaller sizes but i cant see them only making one size.

No actually my hair grew, but i was not taking care of my hair. I really didn't know how.

Good job shay, i bet your hair looked so pretty. Am im glad you have alot of options to help make your transistion easier.:yep:

You are not a cry baby, i understand, i love my hair loose. Since its not damaged all over and its getting cold, maybe you could hide it until you get more growth then you could cut it instead of doing another big chop.

Amazon.com has carries the "Petite" curlers.
 
I have a confession to make and i am so shamed. I want to change my stash.:look: Im really thinking about it, because i find myself using certain things all the time. And even though all my stuff works, im not interested in using it.:look::ohwell:. I want to take away some things and add some things really simplify it but i need choices. I want it to be simple with choices. Idk im just thinking.:ohwell:
 
Thanks Girl.:hug3:

So, when I buy the Steamer thingy, Can't I just get it with all Petite Rollers, or is the Steamer thing going to have a variety of sizes of Rollers?:scratchch

Or Does the Steamer and Rollers Come Separately?:scratchch

From what I quickly gathered, you can get the steamer separate from the rollers or you can buy the set. Let me find you more options from Amazon.

You're a Blessing OR a PUSHA:thumbsup: (not sure which one).

Thanks Americka.:kiss:

Please See what you can find out for me. I'm not planning on buying it until Next Year (so you have plenty of time to do adequate research):lachen:

And if these little Silk Rollers work out, I may not have to get it.:nono:
 
Hey Ms. Aggie don't you live in an exotic place?

I'm goin to cancun for a week in jan, will the salt water mess up my weave?


Sorry I took too long to answer this Charz, it's just that this thread moves like a speeding bullet and I have to try hard to keep up with you ladies:grin:.

I would say yes it would be a little hard on your weave but if it's Very good quality 100% remy-typevirgin hair, it should be fine.

I'd recommend wearing a head band od some sort to keep the front of it in place, that way you get to avoid massive tangling.

I used to braid the very end of my weave and put a stretch band around it to keep it secure to avoid more tangling. That worked swimmingly - no pun intended:grin:.

Girl, don't sweat it! I knew this was coming from the way you always talked about certain products. :yep: Do it if its what you and your hair want. Sometimes we just need to make changes. No shame.

What are you thinking????????

:look: Well like i said im just thinking but..:look: I want to get rid of my dc's, and i want to add butters to my reggie. I want to have 1 shampoo, 1 clarifier, 1 leave in and a few choice conditoners. I have dc'd with a butter mix and it does the same for me as my regular dc's. But im not making any decisions, until i use up more stuff and see if i feel the same way. And really im taking away more than i want to add. So i don't know if it will be helpful for me or will it make me go back to buying alot of stuff again.
