Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I rang the New Year in w/ I Love Lucy. Ricky faked a fire and was rushing in to "save" Lucy and when she heard him coming thinking the house was burning down, she threw her empty Henna gallons out the window :lachen: :lachen: :rofl: :rofl3:
 
New year. Wig back on. *shrugs* Can't help it. I once told myself once I've reached my goal that I would lay off the wigs. Oh welp! Guess that was lie! Been wearing them so long that they have become a habit. *shrugs*

Well, if you're not using all that hair I'll take it! :lol::lol:
 
My new year hair resolutions are to use my sulfur oil every night and learn to use heat healthily (is that a word? Lol).
 
I wore my hair in a sock bun yesterday for the first time. I got several compliments at work. Why am I so excited about being able to bun my hair? A bun? Now I want to buy some eyeglasses and play sexy librarian.
 
Took two hours to put in medium-sized twists yesterday to last all week. This morning my hair is a mess. Sigh.

I feel you... I did this over the weekend and my hair was a hot mess.. I will stick to wigs, trying to sick bun for 2013 and sengalase twists. I'm styling impaired!
 
I cut in to my thumb the weekend it was quite deep. I can't even braid my hair up at properly at night and struggle to do a bun. I couldn't even wash my hair :crazy:
It's soaking in sea salt water now. I need to wash or moisturise and seal cos my ends are drying out.
 
Sooo much fun last night!!!! I was doing the d@mn thing! I gotta post a pic when I get them. Even my date said it was AMAZING how I made my hair grow so long! I was blushing. tee-hee-hee! ;)

I have to give it some TLC tonight cause it went haaaaard last night!! Hair was soaked and wet & ppl kept tugging on it. smh

sitting under the dryer doing a hardcore protein treatment. then i'll condtion with aubrey hsr or gbp. when i detangle and twist with db leave-in and afroveda whipped gelly i will likely keep the twist in for 7-10 days and wash again. i hope this winter i get great retention from this. i only wore a twistout cause my mommie love my hair that way.


i'll be getting my hair trimmed and flatironed at some point this month and i hope that i have retained quite a bit. shrinkage continues to make me feel bald:lachen:

i need to get regular about an exercise reggie that includes yoga, weights and cardio so i can keep it tight and my hurr reap the benefits:yep:
 
Ok my SO going back to basic so im wigging till he comes back in MARCH?????? Well at least I got some coloring in before he leaves. ;)

ive decided this year is going to be a lowkey hair year. not an "ignore my hair" year...but i'm not going to be as focused on it.

mini twists all year. redone every 4 or 5 weeks. cleanse & dc when my hair & scalp need it. leave it alone. no everyday styling.
 
I think I finally have a hair plan. Twist out updos for two weeks, wash, dc repeat. It's so nice that I can make a banana clip bun with no tension and look good now. My edges are busted from post partum shedding, so planning on staying off weaves or braids this year.
My mother- in-law is sooooo conservative and it was a true compliment when she praised my hairdo and said it looked like something from the ancient Greeks
 
oh yesssss...I see! I seeeee said the blind mice!
Roux is not bad at all! Not bad at all!
My hair feels so different after using this! Smooth from root to tip. Now it doesn't feel rough when I air dry as if my cuticles are open or something.
Nice!
Aireen I think it was you I was talking to about it...
 
I have been so neglectful to my hair lately it's ridiculous. I need to wash and deep condish. I will probably show it some TLC this week since I have so many days off.
 
:nono: :nono: Can i just tell yall :look: My niece's and her friend's hair looked frightful on NYE and today even worse. The salon owes them money and time! They went to a place they found on Craig's list and Facebook,it was cheap :sad: The unskilled stylists and cheapness showed. I know beauty school students that do better work. I had to ask the salon name because I wanna make sure I NEVER EVER go there. So I went to site :nono: And I saw hair worse than theirs.

I guess I'll take her with me on Friday to my old stylist to get that mess straighten out.

I know she gonna get laughed at in school.

I was WAITING for you to try it. WAITING PATIENTLY LOL. Yeah it was me you were talking to about it.:lachen::lachen::lachen: Really though, it's good, isn't it? :grin: My hair feels the way you described too lol, smooth from root to tip. When I mix it with my Organix, I get this weird feeling in my hair, no cone slip but very soft, detangled results that are easy to come out. It's weird to me it's almost as if my hair doesn't miss the coney slip feeling.

How did you use it? Mixed with conditioner or straight up? I think I told you that I haven't tried all the other ways but mixing it with my fav conditioner gives me beautiful results, pre_medicalrulz.
 
I'm conditioning with an ORS pack under the soft bonnet dryer I got for Christmas. I love this thing! I had a bonnet dryer but never used it because I did not like sitting under the bonnet. Hope this moves me along on my healthy hair journey. Now i just need to find a staple deep conditioning treatment.
 
I washed and flat iron my hair in order to do a trim to start the new year off with blunt ends. I have been rollersetting my hair for weeks and I really did not realize how much growth I had gotten in the last few months. I never wear my hair straight anymore. I am going to stick with the rollersetting challenge for this year. My goal is to retain at least 4 inches this year.

Ok for my 1st time I wanted to use it straight w/ no leave in & let air dry. I wanted to see how it worked without the enhancement of another product. It was wonderful. Next time I will try it inside my fav conditioner. ;)

I just need to figure out how many times I can use it w/o over doing it. It says it leaves hair stronger...which sometimes scream protein inside. But we will see. Slowly but surely I will try it different ways.
 
Somehow I lost my satin scarf somewhere in my parents house yesterday, which wouldn't have been a big deal if all my backups and satin pillowcases weren't at my apartment 6 hours away! So last night I slapped on a processing cap & decided to baggy overnight (so I would have at least a little something protecting my hair). I forgot how nice & soft my hair feels after baggying! Might have to add this back into my regimen
