Pre-pooing with a molasses mixture right now. I'll be doing this pre-poo thing until my products are used up. For some reason I feel like the condition of my hair when doing this feels better than before I cut my hair.
 
Mische, good news! I got an adjustable comb attachment mailed from Elchim. When I chatted with customer service agents from the site I bought the dryer from, I thought they forgot/ignored me but they got Elchim to send me a comb. :D It took long but at least I got it! :grin:

I put 3 mini twists in my hair too see how my hair would deal with them being left in for a month.
They are a bit short and I forgot this morning and accidently tried to detangle them, lol.
Hopefully I don't forget and in a few months time I find 3 dreads in my hair.
 
My hair is such better condition now, since I added the weekly light protein. It looks and feels so much thicker. I am 12 weeks post next week and I am almost dreading getting a touch up right now. My hair will be a little flatter once I get it done. If I didn't sweat so heavily in my scalp, I continue to stretch longer.

Ugh. I am hoping I can sleep with this henna in my hair. I hate sleeping with plastic on my head.

When I try sleeping with that Saran wrap around my head, I get like a dog with her head stuff in a bag and just keep pulling at my ears the whole time. I think the rustling sound also keeps waking me up, but it's just soooooo convenient to do that when you sleep.

Let us know how you do with it.

I saran'ed, baggied, paper toweled and turbo twisted and slept on a towel. Ugh! I woke up at 445 went to bed at midnight.

I didn't leak henna anywhere so there's that! It wasn't bad but I got paranoid that I would somehow wake up with red red hair. I know better, but when you are half asleep you can be irrational.
 
I really want big, thick waist lenght braids. Right now the longest ends of my hair are just touching my bra strap when I stretch the daylights out of them. I've got such a long way to go. ::sigh::
 
The shea moisture line is not working as well for my hair anymore. *sad face* Back to the drawing board to find out what will work. This happened to me in my relaxed days as well. What gives?

I went to Sally's to get hair thread (I know, who goes to Sally's to get thread) and low and behold I saw Beautiful Textures. Hopefully this hair butter is doing my plaits under this weave justice.

Sometimes when you hair frustrates you there is nothing like a weave to stop you from doing something dreadful.
 
Trying to figure out if my hair is really THAT bad/boring in my daily buns or if I'm underestimating this flat twist style. Because I personally see nothing special with this look but have gotten compliments all day.
 
Oh Lawd I took 2 sewing classes and fancied myself a seamstress:/ I just need to get through these patterns.
 
Adding some fragrance oils to this wheat germ oil still stinks though ...

I'm bored with my hair. Too lazy to do anything with it but keep it in braids. Thank goodness for my wigs so that I don't have to mess with my own hair.

Aireen Yay, I'm so glad it came finally! :) You have to let me know when/if you use it. Are the teeth similar in spacing to the pictures you saw?
 
I hate bobby pins, hair pins, hair combs :nono: No matter how I put them in after a few hours they end up sticking me in my scalp. :tantrum:
 
Ms. Tiki It works! I was heavy handed with the Eco Styler- well actually I'm heavy handed with everything lol, but the Wen got it all out while moisturizing it at the same time :)
 
Huh...the texturizer actually Worked! Not as much as I'd like, but that was because I probably washed it out too quickly. But definitely not as much frizz going on in the temple area. I'll take it!

Used it today, I like it and it gets my hair really straight! I have to get used to maneuvering though because I want to reduce any breakage that may occur when blow-drying. Spacing is the same and it was easy to get it to fit on my dryer. Only complaint is that the tips of the teeth aren't gentle.
 
Love that I don't get no side eyes for cowashing here. Was talking to a coworker about cowashing--she wears her hair in a wrap straight and really doesn't do her own hair too often, said what's cowashing? That sounds like too much conditioning. I just shake my head and lol. If she ever saw this sight she would be in a state of shock.

:grin: -PYT

Sort of frizzed it up cowashing already. Gonna curl my ends so that the relaxed ends don't look so puny. I'll post pics if I'm not looking too crazy. :yep: This is gonna be me for the next week or two, at least. :pray:
