youwillrise hmm are you sure that you can't adjust the nozzle? when I got my spray bottle it only came out in a stream as well. I was playing around with it one day and started to unscrew the nozzle a bit. At first I thought I was about to unscrew it completely but when I squeezed the handle it came out in a "spray" :3

my experiment with mineral oil and heavy silicones is over
Ready to go back to my usual routine next week

Got a hair compliment today. My coworker noticed my hair getting closer and closer to WL. Has to be the Viviscal and me being consistent with my regimen.
 
I think the horsetail is working so far - at least my eyebrows are growing in faster than usual. I think I'm seeing results from the NJoy challenge as well. I think I will be on my WL sometime in 2013.
 
Yeahh finger detangling is no longer cutting it as far as removing shed hair. Going to start coupling it with the magic star jumbo rake again for each and every wash day. I think I'll also look into a seamless comb with slightly smaller teeth to add to the mix.
 
Had the most intense urge to shave my hair right off the other day... Smh, better wait a few weeks to trim my hair, till the madness passes.:spinning:
 
Braids done sorta...... she was ripping through my ng and she did it with no product to make it soft. Then she said she couldn't braid my shorter hair. I've seen babies have cornrows with shorter hair than mine.

Ugh I'm alittle pissed. I'm deciding whether to keep the braids I do have and manage the ng of whats left or take them out and manage all the ng for the next 6 weeks.

I mean im not tryna complain cause she's my mom but I probably would have been better off doing them myself, or leaving it alone completely

Eta: I think I might redo them later

Didn't join the challenge but ordered some mineral rich. All of its proposed claims have me intrigued. Will be following thread though.
 
I really need to use those Ayuvedic powders I bought earlier in the year. I make a terrible mixtress but want to dable in making my own infused oils again.
 
I can't find my wen 677 or whatever it's called. I think someone jacked it when we were on vacation. I have looked in my stashes. It is a big old bottle. I am upset. It was 3/4ths full! I need it. Or I at least need to know where it is.

I came off CG and just wanted to try something different to see if I could really see the effects of silicones


Pros my fuzzier coarser areas are smoother (ill just use a heavier gel on these areas for the future)

I could go longer in between washes without experiencing matting tangles etc

ETA
One area of my hair always seems to get matting and tangles always!! When using the silicones etc i didn't have this problem at ALL and I done everything exactly the same
So that's probably the biggest pro I noticed

Cons

There seemed to be a dullness to my hair

Buildup is annoying as I now have to use a sulphate
I could refresh with CG but using silicones it's like you hit a road block
there is no Room to "refresh"your hair just stops responding and you need to do the whole routine once again

My naked hair looked like a birds nest most times


I didn't see enough pros that would make me go back to using heavy silicones or mineral oil

I can use amodimethicone without any problems but that's it

Overall my hair lost vibrancy

been growing my hair for 3 years now. The thought of psing for another year and is almost unbearable:nono: well, I'm bsl now so i'm hoping my hair just does something very special and grows to my waist before next summer!:look:
 
So I decided to organize my hair stash, and I discover I have 7 =SEVEN= tubes of 2% MN!

I better be WL by December 31, 2013!!!
 
i put shea butter on my hair. yeah i said it! i haven't used it in years. felt like it was too much for my natural hair. maybe this shea butter is different? it is more creamy. it is not hard and caked up. it really helped soften my new growth. i need to write in my blog. i am so not a writing and i don't care if i have typos. it is my little online journal.
 
I work with this Maltese girl that is forever making comments about my hair
How nice it is
How its so unusual for black girls to wear their own hair
How comes my hair is so long normally black girls can't grow hair
How my hair is soft and fluffy how the black men she knows their hair is like Brillo pads


She is working my last nerves she is one of those that starts her sentences with I'm not racist ....BUT

keep the things you use every day (moisture spray and a mixture of oil, stuff like that) in the bathroom. Conditioner somewhere close. Coffee and tea in the kitchen. The rest in a closet.

Then when you need something out the closet, get it and explain to him why you need it.

Those comments are offensive. I would have to tell her something. It's like complimenting me and then pointing out flaws about my race.
