I am doing very little to my hair lately. It is too cold to want to do anything special anyway. I just wake up and brush and go. I keep it moisturized, but I have only been washing once a week. I am little tired of hair right now and just taking a break. And my hair does well when I just leave it be. I have been using the same products since the beginning and I just stick with that. I only buy something when I run out. So I haven't even been buying hair products either....just using what is in my stash.

Wow.. Your daughter's hair is just as gorgeous as yours. She is so blessed to have a mother that knows how to take care of her hair properly.

Hola, chicas! It's that time of the month for me again. Yeah, not that time. It's time to decide whether to texlax or continue stretching. I'll be 25 wks post and have no real reason to break my stretch other than wanting my hair to look nice and long for an event next weekend. Yeah, I can flatiron but, ugh...it takes so friggen long and I'm not that good at it. Ah well...Either way, Tuesday is the day...or not. Meantime, all's well. I've been pretty low manipulation but staying on top of general daily needs.
I'm not putting the same focus on hair length this year as last. This year is about physical fitness and getting fullness and a nice hemline with my hair. *thinking outloud here* Although hl is my goal, I think that would be if I keep the "v". If I start trimming to get a more blunt hemline, I think the length between wl and hl would be perfect. I'm just not sure which way to go yet. Anywho...
Yeah, girl. You know we don't know how to ack withoutcha. And who would be the head cheerleader for every little thing we do? *sniff*

Regimen: DC with steam once a week, protective styles (braids/twists) 90% of the time, moisturize 2x daily
Plans: To join this challenge to keep me accountable to reaching my goal
Hip Length Date: December 2011
1st pic-Stretched natural hair

Thanks to everyone who gave their opinion on the denman brush blowdry method I saw on youtube. I really appreciated it.
I've actually decided to try to avoid blowdrying completely until April or May. I will wear stretched styles as much as possible and find some way to care for my ends during this. I'm currently wearing a braidout in a low bun. I might have been a little over zealous in joining this challenge. But I hope not; I haven't seen my hair straight since June so I only have an idea of my current hair length (siggy pic)

Bought some oils today, I will tell you all about my mixture when I put it together.
I was going to wait until the 27th to take out my braids to make it one month but I'm going to take it out on the 21st and either wear a bun until the 2nd or redo my braids on the 23rd I haven't made up my mind yet :/

I'm still stretching. I knew the texlax was out when I couldn't resist cowashing a couple nights ago. Was planning to blow out my roots a bit but got distracted with some health issues going on with my mom. So, I'm pretty much walking around with my 6 detangled braids from my last cowash. I really don't feel like doing much right now. Will probably moisturize and rebraid 'em. And, yeah, I even go out like this. bump it.
I hope everyone's doing well and wish you a divalicious day!

So I need help from you experts. Two weeks ago I had an interview and I used brown gel twice that week but only redid my bun twice that week (no other manipulation). I co-washed the at the end of that week. Had another interview so I used gel again on Monday. Hair is in the same bun and I feel like keeping it in until Saturday. Do ya'll think I absolutely need to wash it out immediately? I don't want to hinder any progress but I reeeaaallly don't feel like being bothered with my hair right now.
ETA: Definitely praying for you and your family njoy.

oh no no I'm not applying anymore gel. I just did that for the interviews. I just didn't know if I needed to wash it out or if I could wait a few days. So thanks, I'll just spritz with water, moisturize and wash this weekend.

Hello all! I'm guess I'm just checking in 
I've been trying to keep my hair straight for the winter and I feel like it has made my life a little easier. Plus, it keeps the knots at bay and my shed hair just glides out instead of becoming a tangled mess. I'm debating on trimming 1/2inch or just waiting a few weeks....Decisions, decisions.

I'm due to relax but decided to stretch past 16wks and go for 24-26wks. I did an Aphoghee 2 step treatment last night and decided to flat iron my roots. I tried to rotate the pics. These the best pics I could get
Trying to show scalp LOL, fail

Your hair is long and healthy, I can't help but stare. What did you do to get it WSL?

K so I decided to just spritz with water and applied conditioner to keep my edges smooth and Care Free Curl Gold to moisturize my ends and put it back in the bun. I was going to straighten this weekend (out of boredom) but I will stick to my reggie and wait until the end of the month to straighten. I know ya'll don't care but I'm typing this out as a reminder to myself lol so this weekend I'm going to wash and condition with those naked naturals samples and style for a braidout. Probably wear the braidout for the weekend and go back to bunning for next week. Hopefully all this low manipulation and protective styling shows me a wonderful difference by April.
