Hey ladies, just got my lazy tail out of bed. That was some good sleep. I will do inventory of my stuff tomorrow, i don't have too many hair products, so i will do hair and body together.

Me Too! I was going to suggest Hair Clips, A Barret,Hair Jewelry or a nice Headband.

Do you think you could get away with that?

yea i think that would be so nice.

question, is it really like that in certain office settings? where certain hair styles wont fly? i dont work in an office so i dont know.
i know afros and locks in some cases arent allowed(my boss is military and wont allow locks) but twists dont seem crazy at all to me.
 
speaking of inventory, i aint doing it lol. however i can remember everything i have and how much i have for the most part.

Conservative Settings do often require a "Certain" Look. Depending on the clients they deal with etc......a certain type of Office Protocol is expected.:ohwell:

I've worked in Corporate America. Down to the Attire. :perplexed

I am now in Quasi-Government and our CEO has a TWA:look: so it's on for the most part.

Alot of Guys even sport locs, BAA's etc.......:yep:

My memory can be hit or miss, i can remember what i did last summer:lol: but i can't remember what i ate on friday:look::lachen:, i have been neglecting my body oils and some other stuff because i keep forgetting they are there, it will be more of a reminder to me.

I may get a gift card for black friday, i wanted to try some shea moisture stuff from target but i have to get it on line. I will see what their cyber sale will be like then make my decision.

Thanks for the ideas T and Che! I was envisioning the same kind of looks, buns etc.

Che, its not that my office is super conservative, I work for the government but my office is very small and my boss is very old school. She a straight hair natural. I am just not sure if she would look at me strange if I came in with twists. I wouldn't get in trouble or anything but I just wonder what her reaction would be. Maybe I should try it and see.

People at my job be coming in looking like anything, they are very lax about dress codes but some of these men, i just want to wash their hair.:look: I am lax also but i always have on clean pressed clothes, nails done, light make up, cute earrings and a pretty hair wrap. You never know who is looking at you. And mk you can try the accessories and buns. You can make it look chic and classy with all the stuff they got out now. Try it at home first with your work outfit and do and get hubby's input too.

I was just thinking about how I can get away with wearing twists to work. I would really like to start doing that and I think it could get me down to washing once a week. I am just not sure if it would fly in my office.

Mkd, you know the government don't have dress standards/code but imo it how you present yourself too. If you dress/act professional it will look good on you. I wore washngo one day and everyone was giving me kudos even though I did not like it. Heck folks where braids/locs why not. You maybe able to find some updo for the twist on you tube(that my go too for styles).
 
I just got out of work, I have 3 more braids to take out. I will cowash my twists and wear a puff tomorrow. I work from 6 to 6 tomorrow, so it needs to last.

I agree. I work where the second youngest person is 43 and there are only three women, and only two minority folks who happen to be two outta the three woman. The black lady at my job wears sistalocks, she compliments me on my hair. When I wear a fro like this I get all kinds of positive comments. And when I wear my hair straight I get even more comments, some boardline offensive like I think you should wear your hair like that more often or that looks like wedding hair.

Since you all tried to check me the last time I came up in here.. let me come "correct"..

HEY LADIES of U1B1...

I just finished washing my hair.. I'm doing an overnight protein treatment with CJ Curl Fix.. (thanks Che).. I have high hopes for this. I will be "crunching" as you all say.. but I tied my scarf around it.

This black Friday is gonna be slim for me... nothing really appealing to me... except this alleged CJ sale that T has told me about.
 
Did a quick inventory on paper and will do excel when i get home in the morning. I have more body stuff than hair stuff, so i will not purchase any more but my lola is running low and i need some of that, right after i said i won't purchase anymore lmao. But i can't run out of lola.

You ladies have a good night, gotta leave early because my nap put me behind.
