Approaching my one year hair journey anniversary and experiencing a setback. Breakage city. Blech! Hope I nipped it in the bud. Phluck.
 
Looks to me like ayurveda is about to be the new "in" thing for hair products by the big brands. Bye bye argan oil, bout to see a whole new range of stuff hitting the shelves I bet.

It's funny that you mention this. I was just thinking the exact same thing a few minutes ago. I was looking at the monthly Sally's circular and noticed that Optimum has an Amla line. I was thinking to myself that these hair companies must lurk hair forums and blogs. But they're kinda late...ayurveda has been popular for years.
 
I just ordered my big girl hair. :blush: I hesitated a bit before I completed my order. :lol: I was all hype about it, but when it came time to put the money down I hesitated. :lachen: But it's done! I can't wait to get it and get my install done. :yay: I'm ready for my hair to be put up! I went to the BSS to get a wig in the meantime, but I couldn't find anything I wanted. :ohwell: I think I'm already becoming a hair snob. :look: :lol:

I'm probably going to put myself on a no buy challenge. I've been shopping a lot lately and then dropping this money on hair. I need to cool my jets for a bit. :yep:

I saw that too and then aveda recently launched their new invati line with ayurvedic ingredients. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they had lurkers. It definitely already happens on youtube
 
Tonight I a sick of this thick coarse nappy hair on my head. Usually I am in love but tonight I am just weary. I can never do an impromptu style. I can never get it into twists in a matter of minutes so that I can wear a twistout the next day. Everything is a friggin process and tonight I am just tired. No I will not relax. Usually I embrace every coil, every kink, every nap. But tonight I'm tired.

the mailman thought he could just drop off the mail and not ring the doorbell so my mom could get my Belle Butters order and get away with it??? smh not so, he better redeliver it tomorrow like i asked. I want my SHEA BUTTER!!! I've missed it so much, darn moving, I can't find the products I was use to buying. The shea butter in DC looks different than the shea butter here in Chicago lol I'm not used to it
 
I'm going to try to self install Senegalese twists this weekend. This is my first time so I hope I don't end up looking crazy... :look:
 
I'm so tired of my hair seriously. I need to stop with my weave addiction cause my hair thrives a lot better when I'm not in the weaves and taking excellent care of it. I accidently cut my hair of in the front when I was taking my last weave out :nono:
 
I did an unintentional braidout yesterday. Hubby was complaining that I never wear my hair out anymore. Never is such a harsh word. Why, I just wore my hair out in October. :look:


Anywho, I took my Celie braids out and this is what I got:

I didn't use any styling products. Just the normal m&s from the night before. I just unbraided my 5 Celie braids and started fluffing it. Tah dah! Makes me wonder how good it would look if I intended for it to be a braidout and actually used styling products. Ah well. I can't get caught up in wearing it out again. I'd like to keep it in protective styles at least until it warms up.

Oh, and I did stretch a piece for a quasi-length check. Claiming mbl.

Just thinking. A flat ironing would be amazing right now. But, naaaaah. Waiting for my birthday in June. :lick:
 
The condition of my ends are shocking, even after w major trim :nono:

I've finally decided to give henna a try. I didn't mind my grey hairs at first but now I'm not so sure...and at least my hair will get conditioned well...

Daughter where have you been girl? I haven't seen you on the board for ages LOL. I tried henna in the past it wasn't for me as my ends ended up crunchy and dry no matter how many times I deep conditioned I'm now embracing the greys :grin: I love cassia though.
 
I'm thinking about doing french braids with some extra hair so i can still care for my hair. I need to let go of the hair extension thing. Ugh.
 
Thinking of buying a steamer, but wondering if it's really worth it.

Yes! I'm rough on stuff so i killed 2 streamers and just ordered a new one. Since it was the neck that couldn't take all the roughness, i bought one with a metal neck. *sings* I need a rough neck. Gotta get a rough neck.

But definitely worth the purchase. :yep:
 
I do not want to mess with my hair! It feels good. It has been almost a week and a half since I Dc'd or cowashed. I am still m/s though. No smelly scalp and not itching. I am watering my nape and edges every shower though.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y
 
You know you’ve got your hair game on lock when your plastered and nearly sweated out your hair flat iron from relations.... but still remember to moisturize, seal and wrap your hair up before you pass out.
 
my hair shrinks so much when curly that I can't really think of protective styles that I like . . . from BSL straight to CBL/SL curly. Sigh . . . and it loses volume, too.
 
I was supposed to wash my hair last night, and the night before, and the night before. I just didn't feel like it. And it was looking so much better as it got dirtier.:lol:
