I can tell she has some nice hair, it would have been SWAGNIN' when she took those rollers down. I miss rollersets.

im 29 today....and i feel kind of meh about it. i usually dont feel any different on my birthday, but today...waaaaaaaah!

((sigh))

in HAIR news, ive been taking these hairfinity vitamins for just a little short of a week. i did miss one day, but ((shrugs)). i should have measured my hair before i started, but i only just measured yesterday...and only measured one section, which read at almost 9 inches. we'll see if i have mega super results like some people ive seen. my issue w/ growth aides (topical & internal) is that i get impatient and then i get lazy. have to be consistent. i intend on being consistent this time to see if i get results. it would help if i knew my regular growth rate so i can compare, but i dont. i bought a 2 month supply...if after the 2 months are over i see a significant amount of growth, i will surely purchase them again...if not, i wont.

Sitting here with a head full of henna.....(then going to indigo)knowing I won't be going to bed til after 12am and have to be up at 4 30 am....but I was so thirsty to use this Indigo I ain't even mad....the things we do for our hair:drunk:
 
I spritzed my hair w/ Aphogee ProVitamin last night and it was so soft this morning. I spritzed again. I think this will become a staple.
 
I have decided that I think I need to add a protein DC to my regimen and apply it twice a month. Last time I did my twists for my twist out my hair felt mushy. :ohwell: I've been doing some research on what to get. I'll probably stop by the bss today or tomorrow to grab what I need.
 
I think alternating rollersets and flat-ironed hair are gonna make this transition easier. I'm leaving it to the pros this time, my last transition ended at 8 months due to me not knowing how to deal with 2 textures. This time I'm heading in for a professional flatironing.
 
Still prepooing from last night with castor oil and the last of this leftover Vitamin E oil blend...not sure when I'll rinse it out but I'm not in a rush. Need to find more ways to incorporate castor oil into my regimen more frequently, I really want to reap the growth benefits.

I am trying not to focus on buying new products right now. I will probably purchase one or two on Black Friday, but I really want to use the products that I already have first...especially since I am still tweaking my regimen, I don't want to confuse things by bringing in more hair junk. *sigh*
 
I sooo miss good hair days pins. I havent been able to buy any for over a year. I dont see them anywhere anymore. Last night, I found one in a bag I havent worn for a while.... *sigh*
 
There are so many dang new products for natural hair on the market, I don't feel like trying to figure out what is what. I don't feel in the mood for the Black Friday sales at all. :nono:
 
Managed to either unravel or trim the knots from finger detangling only :( Never again. I need tools(magic star jumbo rake, modified Denman) to get all the trapped shed hair. No longer CG other than cowashing and avoiding certain ingredients.

I'm not either. It seems like the longer my hair gets, the less I feel the need to try new products. If I do, its usually a cream, butter or pomade.
 
I've been trying to figure out what to DC with for the last two days, I think I'm finally going to use my Vitale which seems to have help give me the perfect moisture/protein balance. I would normally only use it after relaxing since it's part of the relaxer system but I've use it a few times on a regular DC day and I think I'm trading in my Aphoghee 2 minute for the Vitale as my mild protien/moisture DC.

I also found a full jar of Vitale Life & Body so I won't be switching relaxers until I use this up, don't want to be wasteful...
 
DAmn, maybe I'll DC tonight :lol: I'm so excited. I'm thinking of not using curl wax when I Chi the flatiron. Really that's what I want to try out. I love how my hair looks when it's really light and feathery w/o any hair wax in it. I'll prob still grease my scalp though. I was watching a YT and she was basically saying that with a great DC, it's kinda like her heat protectant. So yea...I don't have to work tomorrow. I'll probably DC under the dryer real good, then rollerset, then Chi in the morning. Oh and I'll probably go ahead and use some end papers for my rollerset. Help it get smoother especially since I'm just airdrying.
 
I've been giving weaves some thought last few days. I'm really getting the itch to do something to my hair...I already been snipping :look: best thing now is to put it away for a while. Half wigs are getting on my nerves because I just don't feel like taking that sucker off and on every night. I just do not want to see my hair at all now. At least for a few weeks....
 
Last time I went to the bbs I bought a 32 oz world of curls comb out refill and a 15 oz lotta body refill to filled my bottles with. This time im buying a one if those natural products for my cousins hair which ever one is cheaper.

Im gonna do a full wash routine, braid her hair in 6 or 7 plaits, blow dry in those sections using the tension method and cold air, moisturize and seal with oil, pull it in two pig tails, twist all the bottom and snip those ends.

I'm so tired of seeing her with a 3 ring circus of cornrows that don't look cute, make ppl think she is a boy, never gets moisturized, looks messy and gets left in for months at a time. She's is going to look nice for christmas, if I do something to her hair.
 
In a rush to get my daughter to school, I forgot to put a headband on. I wish DH had noticed and said something. I look like a HAM. I feel like somewhere someone might be trying to sneak a pic of me to post on a hair board. :lol:

Make sure to smile for the camera phone:)
 
I used my UBH satin moisturizer and i really ,really like it ,my hair is silky and hydrated .It has cones in it but the first 2 ingredients are water and almond oil .this is the second time i used it ,so far so good.

Question ,should I keep Kbb masks in the fridge?(a whole shelf is already taken by Av and MHC lmao
 
I'm confused by certain cones. I don't use them now but from what I'm reading my fine natural hair could benefit from them if I managed them correctly. I have been avoiding them like the plague. :sractchch
 
I'm going to find some cute hair accessories to purchase during black Friday instead of a bunch of hair products. I need a couple of cute hats for the winter.
 
Do y'all think it would be ok to do a protein DC today if I used some of that leave in keratin stuff last week? I don't think it was enough protein.
 
Anyone know if Silk Elements Megasilk Moisturizing Treatment counts as a light protein? It has hydrolized silk in it....

I really want to try something new on Black Friday, something different from my ORS Replenishing Conditioner
 
Am I late? Sunday I rode past Karen's Body Beautiful in bk to get some deep conditioner and the store was closed?...did she shut down the actual store and just doing the online thing now?
