Went to breakfast w/ my hair down. One hour later I pinned it up. 30 mins later I excused myself to the bathroom & snatched my wig out my purse & threw it on. LOL!! I despise the snagging of my hair on my clothes. :(

:lachen: lawd!!!

She didn't say "snatched my wig out my purse" did she?! :rofl:

I had the best twist out for our Xmas eve party. I retwisted last night and I'm hoping it looks just as great today.


Tomorrow, I'm going to be straightening my hair. I'm so excited!
 
Did a length check last night and I'm excited that I was able to retain 2 inches of growth between September and now, an extra 1/2 inch :grin:
 
I am SO discouraged with my hair. I am trying my best to leave the weaves alone...but I HATE the way my hair looks. I wish I could find a nice protective style that I like. I have been trying the deep moisture method and I think it's working...but my gosh. Each time I wear my hair...I get so discouraged and want to relax and just chop it all off. OH what to do...what to do...
 
I've just diagnosed myself with hand in hair disease:sad:.
I never thought it would happen to me, I always want to be doing something with my hair.
What to do, what to do:crying3:

I medicate myself with daily cowashes and regular dc's. That's the main reason I started cowashing as often as I do:look:
 
finally reached APL!!!!! after a disastrous 2011 and a rallyback in 2012 Im confident I'll reach BSL in 2013 :yay:
 
Question: Is silicon mix really as good as everyone says? I'm going to stretch for a while and my beloved Humecto isn't really doing that good of a job past 6 weeks post.

Angelinhell, I used silicon mix about 3 years ago and it was just okay. I have Humecto Creme Conditioner and it is also just okay for easy hair days.

But when I am having very bad hair days like after a henna treatment or a hardcore protein treatment like Dudley's DRC-28, or Keracare Super Reconstructor, nothing and I do mean nothing beats Design Essentials Stimulations Super Moisturizing Conditioner.

This conditioner simply melts those crazy knots and makes detangling a whole lot easier. I especially love the invigorating and tingly sensation on my scalp:lick:. I purchase the 4lb jar from our distributor here in the Bahamas but I am sure it an be found online.
 
For the first time since hennaing my hair, I actually did a half n' half of henna and indigo mix and my hair is still nice and dark.

Next time I will try the 25:75 - henna to indigo and if I like it a lot, I may do this method on lazy henna days for sure.

If I am wearing my hair out and flowing, then I would have to use the 2 step process.
 
So bump daily washing. That lasted all of one week lol. Basically the last couple of days all I wanted to do was just put a scarf on my head.

In a few min I'm going to poo and cowash w/ Mizani, then use that liquid leave-in that comes w/ my relaxer. Then rollerset w/ caps...sit under dryer. Then go over sections w/ a chi iron, then grease my scalp. Then lay that hair down and call it a week.
 
My hair seems to be doing so well with my lack of trimming. Well... it's not really showing signs of wear and tear. I wonder if I should skip my next trim as well?
 
Saw some relatives that I haven't seen in a year and got lots of compliments on my hair growth. Loving it...
 
I have to write this because I'm like in disbelief. My hair which has been a thorn in my side is like awesome right now.It's soft,the new growth feels like cotton balls and it's just smooth.I washed last week rushed like so rushed no real dcing just 20 mins on dry hair and washed in the shower. My hair had no tangles and I could even use my paddle brush on it. If my hair never grew any more I'm ok because at least my hair is healthy. Even my edges are filling in nicely. I'm so happy I don't know what to do.

I'm glad I read here because it all started with getting the Ion Hard Water poo and conditioner. Then after getting a item recommended by a lurker here the Nairobi Humecto-Sil and then loving it so much that I got the Hair Moisturizer my hair has been in heaven. I will also steam my hair on Saturdays after my last workout. I'm like excited.
 
Let my hair down in front of someone who's only ever seen me wearing a bun. She made me spin around so she could see the back and asked so many questions

Everytime I go to the store i open up a bottle of suave's everlasting sunshine conditioner to smell it I don't know why I cant just drop $1.70 and buy it already
 
All the natural haired gals with super long hair don't trim their hair. Why do I keep doing it?:sad:
I wanna reach my goals, but these ends are the bane of my existence. I want to go on a no-trimming challenge (replacing with regular dusting) and see what happens. I'm going to step up the moisture and will keep my ends stretched... No more twists and twist outs. Thinking rollers will be my friend. That seems to be the only way my ends don't get tangled.
 
I'm seriously considering going to my old stylist(or sending someone else) just to spy on her products. At this point I'm quite desperate..... I must find out what she was using!!!

It might seem weird though, because I haven't been to her in over 2 years:look:
If I get the balls to do it I will definitely share my findings with ya'll:yep:
 
I might get the Coolway flatiron since they have it at Ulta now. My brother told me I look like an old maid because I always cover my hair with headwraps.

Thankfully he flies back to California today, so I won't have to hear his verbally abusive comments.

It's been a year since I flat ironed my hair, and I just want to try this thing. I'll take it back if it doesn't work for me.

I need a new cowash conditioner. Not now thank God. But when it runs out I gotta go hunting for a new staple. Dollar tree still doesnt have it in stock, there isn't even a space for it, its just gone.
