I'm going to give this finger detangling thing a whirl. Give my hair a break from the combs and see how it responds.
 
Victoria44 your hair is Amazing!!

I really feel like cowashing ,i washed my hair yesterday and it feels dry ,i know it hates frequent washing 2x a week is as muvh as it can withstand . i washed it every 2 days lately and as a result it's frizzy and dry .
I ve used Elasta qp fortifying con +coconut oil ,didnt work well ..ugh.
 
@-PYT, yes, I have. It didn't work either. I'm sad about it too. I had one of my friends, who's also natural, feel my hair and she said it's soft to her. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I've felt my hair at it's ultimate leve of softness. And this ain't it. I wish I remember what I did to make that happen. I know glycerin was involved, but I can't get the ratio right! And I don't remem the DC I used either.

Have you ever tried honey and EVOO, as pre poo. It gives me ultimate softness. And I love silicon Mix, well the Bambu one. I mix mine with EVOO, cocnut oil and raw honey. My hair is beyond soft..makes you wanna slap the hair Gods. :lol:
 
Has anyone used conditioner as moisturizer?

Straight up, or mixed? The only one I can use straight up is AO White Camelia. It doesn't weight my hair down, or leave any residue. I also use it to make a hair milk that I spay on my hair to keep it moist whole it's up in twists.
 
Has anyone used conditioner as moisturizer?

Kindheart I normally do it with Wen. Yesterday, I use one of the V05 tea therapy conditioners for moisture and sealed with avocado oil. My ends still feel nice. I think I might keep doing it with my bottle of condish when they start running low
 
Ordered my replacement wig this morning. I'll probably keep the wig thing up for a little while and get a break from my hair.
 
Need to know if MTG is any good before I buy it on Amazon tomorrow morning? I have my sulfur powder in my cart as well. I hope by this time next week to have all I need hair wise for a while. I think I will buy one new half wig which should last me through the end of summer.
 
My finger detangling session was challenging this time. I waited 10 days. Wash day is tomorrow cuz I can't wait any longer. Trying to figure out what products to use for my wng.

I'm on a strict product no buy. It's a shame I'm still looking at products I've had since the beginning of my journey smh! I still have 3 bottles of DDTA.....y'all old heads remember that I bet!

Patiently waiting for my hair in the back to grow long enough so that I can comfortably exam my ends for dusting.
 
i want to wash and dc my hair so bad, but i will try to wait until tomorrow. oh my hair is caught in this dang hair clip...please let me get it out without snagging my hair or breaking it!
 
My hair is getting a lot of love lately. Gentle detangling, moisture and scarf every night, relatively low manipulation (twistouts for the past week, vs daily WnG I usually do in the summer), DCing, keeping it stretched, and no heat till August (possibly Sept with just doing "out" styles).

Its growing well too. Very simple and I think it may get me to BSB by December.
Will need more protective styles like weaves come winter though.
 
Ugh, I hate my hair right now.:swearing: My stylist didn't get it as straight as he usually does, my hair isn't growing as quickly as I'd like despite me doing everything right, my sister's hair is now almost 2 inches past APL (the one length I can't seem to get past:wallbash:), my scalp is itchy 2 days after I washed it and I can't tell if it's because my hair's growing or if my scalp is just dry when I just moisturized it. I also just realized I'm getting my hair braided in about a month for vacation and I'm dreading it because last year I lost a year's worth of growth because of a scissor-happy braider and I will go postal if the same thing happens again.

There... I feel better.
 
My hair held up today in 100 degree weather..

*Some guys walk by me today & said you have some pretty hair & if they could run their hands & touch it..I was like..Don't think so...but thanks for the compliment..


Happy Hair Growing!
 
Also my scalp got itchy out of the blue. I washed it 2 days ago and moisturized it and everything, still itches. I didn't do anything different and haven't noticed anything different. I did add some extra MSM to my Hairfinity last night and I've been taking extra Biotin for a couple weeks (til I lost the bottle.) Maybe this is the beginning of a growth spurt?:perplexed My last one was in early April.
 
Bon Bon Cheveux satin caps are so comfy. I got two new ones, and they're better than the first two I ordered. Yay!

Seriously considering BC'g. I don't know why I'm hesitating.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BC? How short? Don't you dare.


You are hurting MY feelings. I love your hair. Don't be reckless. Put it away for the summer.

The heat must be affecting you NJoy

I don't know, girl. I'm really thinking about it. I mean, since it'll be put away for the summer anyway, why not cut it? I've been doing heavy oilings lately and that REALLY allows my relaxed ends to mock me. I was so close last night. Hubby protested the idea and then said to do what I think is best. It's not like I don't know how to grow it back. :lick: Don't take it personally. :bighug: It's only hair. :look:
 
I wash once a week but debating whether I should start washing with wen and in the middle of the week cowash because in the middle of the week my roller set looks frizzy after applying my moisturizer and castor oil and sometimes stringy but then I say never mind because I think me having to do less combing would be more beneficial! What to do?!....
 
Washed my hair on Saturday and braided it. Nothing neat. Some are plaited and some are free braids. My husband keeps asking when I'm going to unbraid them. I told him no need to unbraid them just to sit in the house.

Well, I'm about to take my kids to the doctor's office and I hop in the shower. Slap on the shower cap...but didn't do it carefully. So now, two of my braids are wet and I actually need to leave in 15 minutes.

Fantastic. Way to go. So much for a decent braidout....:ohwell:
