Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Yaay, my hair is jet black. I can't stop looking at it.


I can't wait to use cellophanes to regularly color mine in the Spring, after I'm done protective styling for a while.

OAN, going to get a trim today :look:. I hope all goes well. I'm a little nervous about it. I just wanted to make sure I got it trimmed before getting my senagalese twists in two weeks. I'm set to do two more protein treatments before I hide my hair until March 2013. :yep:
 
2 months after shaving my head and I'm developing a helmut lol! Took a pic of myself from the back after shea moisture curl enhancing....it doesn't truly enhance anything, it's just great for moisturizing and sticking down cowlicks. I am liking what I'm seeing. Also, my henna with coffee/tea oxidized well and covered those pesky little greys up front. Happy.
 
Omg coconut oil stinks. I hear all this great stuff about it and I don't deny it works great for the hair but raw coconut oil is reeks so bad I don't think I will buy it again.
 
I was in a car accident on Thursday morning. Hit from behind. And because I've been so heavily medicated, I haven't been doing anything to or for my hair. I'm in Celie braids right now and that will have to do.

Another thought, it's been a month since I've BC'd. I think I'll do a length check the next time I make it into the bathroom. Too tired right now.

Oh no! I hope you are okay! Please take care of yourself. NJoy
 
I hope you enjoy it. I didnt really care for it. I guess my hair is just difficult.:ohwell:



i hope it works for me...my hair is pretty picky and hates almost everything. been having more success with things lately, though haha.

if my hair doesnt like it, i'll find some use for it.
 
finally trying a garlic powder treatment after watching traycee's video on slowing down shedding...i reaaaaaaally hope these granules of garlic wash out, i think they will but i've had a bad food-related hair trauma in the past that i am not tryna repeat! :ohwell:

i'll turn this into a more positive note though by saying that hair one is officially a staple in my reggie :yep: it leaves my hair so soft but actually cleanses my scalp at the same time...i don't think i'll be using separate conditioner & sulfate shampoo anymore as long as hair one's around (just my protein dc)...makes the wash process so much quicker too!

one of my main goals now is to use up some of my "ok" products so that i can go out and buy better ones :wacky: i want to use up my mane n tail detangler (i have 2 so i may just give the unopened one away) so that i can buy it's a 10 leave-in detangler w/out feeling guilty. also need to use up my oils since all oils seem to fail at actually sealing my ends. i will buy some cold pressed castor oil when i finally use them up but that's the only oil i will invest in for awhile. i'll stick to dax & monitor the results.
 
It rained on me, so it's slightly reverting already. Oh well at least I can still rock a sleek pony / bun for awhile. Stupid weather changing at the last minute....
 
Wen 613 is amazing on my hair - it's the ssssesss (pronounced ess says). Shiny, Soft, Smooth, Smells good, Shedding be gone, and the Shidznit
 
I'm angry. I need to cut my hair more I'm sure. The ends were quite bad.

I think my hair knows I haven't been taking care of myself lately. My job keeps me long hours, my eyes are black from lack of rest, and I haven't been eating right or regularly taking my vitamins. My guy friend is coming into town, so I hurriedly twisted my hair last night.

Hope it comes out ok...
 
Quick question has anyone used Hawaiian silky miracle worker (14and 1) ? How did you like the results? How did you use it? Thanks

I can't take the way that NTM mask made my hair feel. I think I'm going to cowash today and DC again even though I just shampoo'd and DC'd Friday.
 
Pure Protein, Avocado Oil, Coconut Oil, Ceramides (Safflower and Grapeseed Oil), Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Honey, Roux Porosity Control and Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse, deep conditionining to restore moisture from the protein treatment. Whew! That's a lot o' work but it was worth it. My hair look rich today. Like I went to some high end salon and had some fabulous ridiculously expensive celebrity hair dresser do it for me. :grin: Thick, bouncy, shiny and just bouncing and behaving!:grin::grin:

Hoping to be a solid MBL by the end of 2012. Dare I say HL 2013? :spinning:
 
I'm trying to stop cursing however my hair said a few choice words to me all week but I ignored hair. It was soo dry and there was a bit of breakage. I really think my hair is meant to stay at sl no longer. I don't know if it's bc I'm devoting more time into my body now or what. I did do a little trim on the ends. Maybe 2032 I will be APL without the aid of weaves. I also need to find out what I can do about my wig obsession. I prefer them over my own hair. My hair is nothing to me. No nothing. A wig can give me nice fullness. The only issue is my edges seem thin. I tried half wigs and my hair just wouldn't blend to save it's life. Just stuck out. I guess I can't have it all. I would prefer body over hair though bc I can buy hair. Can't buy a body. I just don't want Naomi edges.

Give yourself the gift of great hair. You can grow a head of hair that would put a wig to shame, and you know it. You can be a total package you know....hot hair, and tight body. It's possible! :yep:
 
Two great things about growing my hair back to HL:

1. I've been there already so, I know it's possible for me.
2. I can use my previous length check pics to visualize future growth.

Printing out my MBL pics now. :lick:
