what happened to my hair?!?

[PittGirl06]

whoa! so I finally took out my braids and I couldn't wait ot wash my hair to see what i t looked like and...I am not done washing yet because i dont have hot water and I have to jump back in the shower to finish when the hot water is back....lol.

Anyway I looked at my hair (which is currently covered in conditioner) and I am shocked to see the texture! it just looks so odd! it hasn't like that spirally, curly i don't think! and wow, although it is not straightened, it has a good bit of length to it! I am shocked! WHat happened?? the saga will continue later as I update.

Okay, I was about to let you HAVE it! Your butt need to go 'head and update, I'm sick of your mess...no camera and all this junk about being in Paris and Germany and Wazooville, get yo' tale together and give us pics of that gorgeous thick hair NOW!!...*huff* *puff* *huff* *puff*...okay, I'm done letting you have it....

Now, about your curls, what conditioner do you have on your hair? Is it something you never used before.....

 

[PittGirl06]

Album updated. I will do some more updates once I get the hot water back...lol. LOVING my hair right about now!

 

[PittGirl06]

ha! I used a bunch of stuff and I didn't even get to use everything i wanted before the water turned cold...lol.

I am just trying to use up all my shampoos and conditioners so I currently have on my head Thermasilk curl defining conditioner with znti-frizz control and also I have Pantene relaxed and natural conditioner on there.

Edited to add: I also put Fantasia Tea Tree conditioner on too.

Very pretty curls!! your hair has grown so much, i wish my natural hair was as beautiful as this, maybe i wouldn't now be considering relaxing again. but we'll see

 

[RainbowCurls]

Lovely texture and hair colour!

 

[kristina]

I love your hair texture. And it's grown so fast.
As far as the texture change- my hair always feels weird and wirey when I take out my braids but returns to normal with a little conditioning.

 

[PittGirl06]

thanks!!!

To den: you have lovely texture! give your hair a chance!

I hope the hot water works now cuz I am ready to wash my conditioner out...heh.

 

[Cheleigh]

[PittGirl06]

I love the maxiglide pics your hair looks so soft and cottony and easy to manage. btw what is your regime and products?

 

[PittGirl06]

I'm in braids most of the time...hold up, i'll be back to give more details after I heat up some salmon...lol...just bumping to keep the thread up. will get back to you on the regime.

Looking good Pittgirl. Your texture is sooo pretty

 

[neonbright]

I love your hair, great texter...

I have to say having braids for 2 years and 8 months, in Hawaii much needed. No chemicals during the whole time, the texter was simular to that.

Thanks!

Offtopic: never buy "fully cooked" salmon from the grocery store..bleh!

Anyway as far as my regime, when I am being a good girl, I do the following:

Surge in th emorning.
MTG concoction at night.
Conditioner washes with Suave Milk and Honey
Shampoo with Cream of Nature and also Surge Power Wash if I have it.

I use several other Surge products as well....in fact, everything except their Shea Butter and their Soya Bean Oil (only cuz I have so much of th eother stuff that I don't want to buy anymore).

I will at times use S-Curl as well after a wash.

I will wash 1 to 5 times a week but with school and other things going on, I often don't stick to a consistent routine. Ideally I would co wash at least every other day.

I also love oil...when I maxiglide, I use oil. I LOVE the Surge Motion Lotion, but if I run out of that, I use Hot Six.

I will also at times use Doo Gro or WGO, but haven't bought either in a good while...if I use that, it is usually with SUrge and ONLY on the scalp.

Edited to add: I also RARELY use any heat. My head is braided or covered up with a scarf most of the time anyway so I rarely use heat. But when I do use it, it is always with a heat protectant and really only to better see my length. I maxiglided today and probably will not do it again for a good while. I'll be giving my hair a rest from braids for a little bit.

Your regime appears to be similar to mine, thanks for posting the information. Do you take any vitamins?

 

[PittGirl06]

Again when I am being a good girl, I take WOmen's One a Day....but I HATE taking pills and I forget to take them most of the time....lol. I got them though.
