I guess right now, I'm over the annoyed phase and at the phase "it is what it is".

I know I don't want to go back to relaxing, (at least not in the near future), so Imma hafta' accept what I'm dealing with and try to make it work.

I'm still under a wig, so I guess I only have to "deal with my hair" on wash days. I honestly don't know what I would do, if I were wearing it out everyday?

Nice results in the NetWurks21 thread. So far, how are you feeling about the product?

I don't care for the scalp tenderness, but it's bareable. I scaled back to 1x a day due to the tenderness. I just can't scratch or scrub too hard. Otherwise, I'm fine with it. My roots and hair closer to it feel nice and soft and I'm seeing less hair going down the drain.

I been thinking bout relaxing or texlaxing too. But I know I'd regret it. I been annoyed with my hair. It just does not do what I want it to do.

@IDareT'sHair Yes it came today :)

Sooooo that HQ GM and CK combo is a no go. My hair feels dry as all get out. I had banded my hair and much to my dismay my hair is still stuck at shrinkville and the ssk's.... Lawd :rolleyes: I think I'm going to have to find the energy and patience to wash this out and blow dry to do a small trim. Dis tew much.

How did you apply? When I shingle or harp, my curl definition is better. You may need something heavier or something with harder hold. You may also need to sit under a dryer to dry faster without the shrinkage.

I'd be frustrated right with there with you and @flyygirlll2 if I was tryna' wear my hair "out" on a daily. I'm a cop out to the wig.:ohwell:

You bought the Apalus too, didn't you G? Did you have good results with it? I'm not sure why I've only used it once?:nuts:

For the "health of my hair" I know I probably won't go back to relaxing.:nono:

As aggravated as I get, I don't see myself going back to relaxing anytime soon either. I'm going to learn to deal with it for now.

@flyygirlll2
Yeah, me either. :drunk:

My hair feels, looks, appears more healthy in it's natural state.

And I still have not totally 'ruled out' some type of heat training. Although, I agree, it is totally aggravating and never really looks nice:look:.

But that would require me to go to the Salon and I'm not ready to do that either.

Especially when I'm sitting on 50-11 products. Imma roll wid it. (for now).
 
@IDareT'sHair - If I could find a wig that looked right on me, I would not have this hurr out. I started looking, but haven't had luck. I saw a wig on YT that looked promising, but they said the cap is big, and that came from big headed people. LOL.

I did get the brush and used it several times. It does the job. I stay at about 300-325 and get a silky blowout look. I may bust it out tomorrow. Maybe. I just finished blowdrying and trying to figure what I'll do for the week. Now that my hair is shorter and more layered, buns my be a challenge. Hair looked great soaking wet. Had me thinking I could have a bomb wash n go. But I know that thought was a lie.

Heat Trained uh?
Click to expand...

Yup... I had no tangles washing, curls def elongated more so than normal. However, I did feel before the salon, my hair was leaning towards the side of trained/tamed. But I said nah... But after salon there is a noticeable difference especially a section in the front. No curl pattern from root through shaft. My ends have a very loose 3c look to them though.

So I'll be laying low on heat for a bit, don't want to rock the boat. I only blow dried on low using tension method and it was easy peasy. Usually tension method left me with puffier hair.

I'm not too concerned, yet, since I have not seen any breakage.

I remember you using the Brush with Great Results now.:rose:

My hair is outgrowing my current wig. Sometimes if I'm not careful, a twist will be hanging out from underneath.:eek: #notcute.

My Hair always looks amazing Soaking Wet!:love:

Yeah.....What's up with that?:ohwell:

I know Imma be truly sad tomorrow when I finish up this last jar of SSI Banana Brulee. :cry3:

Especially since it temporarily discontinued. I always took for granted this product would always be around, and now that it's not has me feelin' some kind of way.

I mean, I didn't consider it an HG or anything, but I did like it and bought it from time to time.

#Pours out some SSI Avocado in memory of Banana Brulee.:dead:

I was actually going to use this today, but I saw the opened Fortifying mask. I don't see the Fortifying on the site either, unless its rebranded as the repair and restore mask. Fortifying is really nice too. Hair was very soft and smooth after rinsing. I'll probably use this up in the next couple weeks. Think I have a little less than 8oz left.

I found a corner of Okra Winfrey, but I should have more somewhere in the stash boxes.

I do still have x1 unopened jar of the Fortifying Hair Mask. :drool:

Yes, now that one I did buy more than Banana Brulee and would 'hate' to see/or find out, that it has been discontinued or replaced.:angry2: I consider the Fortifying a 'staple'.

I've been out of Okra Winfrey for some time.

However, I do have Peach Sugar, Seyani, Cranberry Cocktail, Fortifying, Avocado in my SSI stash though.:drunk:

I haven't tried hardly any of her newer products.
