I like it but not on soaking wet hair. I wait until m y hair is just slightly damp or dry and put it on. It glides on my hair better this way and keeps my hair moist for about 2 days, then I would add it again after that.

Thanks. One day I'll pull it out. The way my feelings on Bekura are set up, I don't want to take it out now.

Good morning!

Totally agree @curlyhersheygirl. Bountiful Mane is very nice

Good Afternoon my e-sistas. I'm at work and stopped for a minute to check in. Chat later...

It's official I'm going back to relaxing my hair. I feel like my hair thrived way better being relaxed instead of straight haired natural. My hair is consistently taking a beating by using heat twice a month. To me that is more damaging than relaxing. I never used heat when I was relaxed.

I will order my favorite relaxer (Affirm Fiberguard Mild) since it still leaves your hair "textured". I miss washing my hair often. My hair should be BSL or longer by now but it's not. It's only APL. Plus the spring/summer time is approaching and it's extremely humid for a straight haired natural. I'm tired of every time I go somewhere my hair be pretty but when I leave the house it turns into a big puffy mess.

I tried the natural way for about 2.5 years. It's not for me or my lifestyle and I'm okay with it.

Think I'm going to use either a Bobeam DC (Buttercream) or a Soultanicals DC (Strand Repair) tomorrow

Will also be pulling the SD WGBC back out

@Beamodel You have to do what's best for you and what makes life easier . Natural hair is no walk in the park.

I want that new Eco Black Castor and Flaxeed gel it's probably a good thing that it's pretty much sold out everywhere online.

I'm itching to try a WNG just to see how my hair will look/respond.

Me too!
But then I think about the styling
Styling has never been my strong suit

That's why I've been hesitant about it. Ssk's/tangles already bother my spirit, I don't want a WNG to cause them stomping on my entire life.

I'm tempted to try a tiny section one weekend when I'll be in the house just to get a feel for it...

 

[flyygirlll2]

@rileypak That's actually a good idea. Last thing I want is a head full of struggle. I might try it on my nape area first.

 

[Beamodel]

Thx hunnies @rileypak @flyygirlll2

By the way that black Castor oil eco styler does look good.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Beamodel
At least we can all say we've tried it.

I'm sure either way, it will be Beautiful & Healthy.

I Agree with @flyygirlll2 While it is no "walk in the park" my Hair has retained better Natural.

So, for the time being, Imma stick it out through the good times and bad.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Using Sarenzo's Heavy Creme & loving it.

@IDareT'sHair

Thanks hun. I will cheer you all on from the sidelines. I'll keep y'all posted on when I relax it (or texture it).

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Beamodel
I know it's going to be so beautiful.

And you'll know how/when to stretch, protein/moisture etc....just overall healthy relaxed Ha.ir Car.e.

I know you'll get to amazing lengths this time around as a Relaxed Head!

Can't wait for an update.

 

[rileypak]

Anybody tried NG's Ginger Peach Leave In Spray before? I'm planning to try it tomorrow.

Good to know!
Planning to use it as my spray leave in this wash day so I'm hoping for good results

 

[rileypak]

So I'm getting back to my use up my onesies routine. I'll try to use up as many one-offs every wash day that I can. It will go faster once I'm back to washing weekly.

My silk amino acids and tea did arrive on Wednesday. My Curl Origin and Hairveda should arrive today.

Thank you hunni. I think a huge part is me not being able to moisturize and seal properly since my hair is straight all the time. The moment I "moisturize" it, it reverts.

I told my mama she didn't need no gel but I helped her pick out some eco styler gel anyway and now she don't use it . If it turns out she never uses it I'll have her give it to me and I will give it to one of my clients here at work.

APB's butter is fluffy and smells great but it does not spread easily on my wet skin so that's a no go for me. I'll use it up but that's it.

I'm contemplating using black soap as my weekly cleanser. I'm thinking of making it from a bar of black soap and maybe adding an oil and vitamin E. Got the idea from Naptural85 but she adds way too many oils and I ain't doing all of that. We'll see. I still have one Sarenzo Hair Cleanser and one APB Whipped Cleansing Cream so I have time.

 

[KinksAndInk]

Used up: HH spinach and honey DC. 1 b/u, loved it but not a repurchase.

 

[Shay72]

Updated the spreadsheet today since my final orders arrived. I will be reviewing it to see what I need to buy during our next break.

 

[CeeLex33]
