Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[CoiledOrchids]

I really enjoy the DE Almond & Avocado shampoo. It really does gently cleanse and detangle my thick coily hair like a dream...

I thought this protective style would last all summer...I'm trying to make it work until the end of July before I go to my family reunion.

but now I don't know what I wanna do with my hair after I take it out....

Any perimenopausal naturals in here? How do you deal? I'm constantly sweating and atp there is no point in straightening my hair. I thought about going back to relaxers until this phase is over

There are not nearly as many pics as there used to be across the board. I want to see lots of pics. I love looking at the cute styles and the progress pics/length checks.

Here’s a throwback. I think I used pillow rollers to get the loose waves.

a trick I use to get straight hair in the summer is to use a little pressing oil

I’ve heard of it. That might be a good option, but the moment I get some new growth it’s over.

I started a thread, I've not had any takers yet, but I'm hoping to get some recommendations.

I want to do a rollerset, it's been a hot minute since my last one. I know there's plenty of ladies battling humidity out here

Thread '2025 Anti Humidity and Heat Protectants That Work?'

Jun 30, 2025

I'm wanting to rollerset my hair sometime soon, but with my very frizzy, low porosity hair, and puffy roots syndrome, I need some recommendations on anti humidity products and heat protectants find products that work.

Most of the threads on this topic date back to 2008, I'm assuming that there are many newer products available now. So, what's the best anti frizz/humidity products heat protectant. I don't mind if it's one product or separate products that work well together. It could be a process/mix of using products from shampoo to finish.

Too much time goes into a rollerset to be...

As annoying as shrinkage is or can be at times, it's a sign of healthy hair and elasticity.
