Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[kandiekj100]

Alright, I guess it's time to hang it up on Sunday's flat ironed hair. It was nice while it lasted. After Wednesday's workout, at 4 months post, my hair was not having it. I put it flexirods yesterday and today and managed to make it work, but it is time to go back to my braidouts, buns and wigs.

I want to get my hair cornrowed for the month but I'm unable to find anyone who can do it on the low, low. I need a teenager who does hair has an after-school, weekend hustle.

I want a new Flat iron, planned on getting the H2Pro at the hair show. But truth be told I don't need one at all.

I am soooo sick of my frizzy roots. My ends are so shiney and defined...I think I'm the only person I know who is natural and still has a kitchen. Failing so hard. I'm hoping with length the frizz will dim down but u just cannot get my edges to be as smooth as my sides and ends.

Extremely tempted to end my 6 month stretch tomorrow at 5 months post. Need to make a decision quick because I need to run to the salon as soon as they open at 9 am to beat the Saturday crowd.

I used to look forward to wash days, now I have to mentally prepare myself for them.

shortdub78[/USER];17820005]me too! but i think i will flat iron my hair and put some curls in it. there is good reason my hair needs to be down. but i'm still trying to figure out what i'm going to do for delivery.

I am sitting under the dryer now for 1hr before I go to bed with these curlformers. I already know that sleep will not be good tonight:/

 

[winona]

So sleeping in my curlformers wasn't so horrible but I did have to sleep with lots of pillows to stay comfy. We will see how this set comes out

Need to order new bottle of JBCO

I have been wearing my hair down these past two days. I am loving it. Thank goodness I am putting it in braids soon or I will be tempted to wear it down forever and ever .

I'm trying to make this hot glued u part wig tonight. I've watched numerous yt vids on it and I still don't feel ready, but I've had the materials sitting for 2+ months. I need this for protective styling cuz I want to make bsl this year. Sweet baby Jesus, please don't let this be an epic fail!

 

[Angelinhell]

Laila Ali has hair dryers, I wonder how good they are. They're under Belson.

get the bonnet one....if i got a hardhat dryer i would invest in pibbs or salons r us. i've had the same bonnet dryer for almost 15 or 20 yrs, i get replacement bonnets off ebay. it was made by windmere which is now affliated with belson and i think they make gold n hot stuff.

Wish I didn't have to wear my hair in certain styles for work, I just want to bun and lock I'm all that moisture I got from the LOC method

Wearing a satin scarf to bed is such a great idea

 

[CaliiSwagg]

I need some new PS for the next few months so I can keep from flat ironing my hair.

 

[spellinto]

I've gotten so sick of my hair these past couple of weeks . Bunning just seems to damage my ends and cause tangling, so this week I'm going to experiment with rocking braidouts & pigtails until I can figure out a better route w/protective styling. To prepare for this, I've upped my moisture game by cowashing more frequently. I think I may cowash every day/every other day depending on how my hair feels. I used SE MegaSilk Moisture Treatment as a cowash and it seemed to like that a lot.

I think I may finally have to buy a new moisturizer. I thought NTM was the bomb...still do I suppose...but the moisture doesn't seem to be holding up. Since I'm on my last bottle of NTM (and almost finished w/my spray detangler), I'm going to order Africas Best Kids Organics Detangling Moisturizer. It has a lot of good reviews on here as a detangler more than a moisturizer though Still, I need both so why not.

 

[havilland]

I don't care what they say. Type 1 hair is easier! Our 3-4 type hairs are more versatile, prettier (in my opinion), sexier, lovelier, but they are more work! Jeesh......I just spent an hour detangling my hair. That's not easy to me.
Vent over......

DC today. Possibly some curls on pillow rollers. We will see.

 

[Aireen]

I love how my hair is constantly improving. I just wish I knew some of the tricks I do now 5 years ago.

I mixed banana in my AO HSR and it was wonderful.

 

[Curly1908]

I really have to start back taking better care of my hair. It use to be on point. Now I barely remember to moisturize it let along DT then have the nerve to complain about how dry it feels smh.

 

[halee_J]

I am loooooooving rollersets with these mesh rollers. Next purchase will be the 2" I'll have to get a bigger bonnet tho. I can barely fit in the one I have now lol.

I wonder if successful long term stretchers are heavy water drinkers. At 6 weeks post my ng is very manageable and the only real difference in my regimen is drinking 60oz of water/herbal teas a day.

 

[winona]

I hate going into threads and seeing people write "the picture is in my siggy or my avatar" You have made changes since then and now I cant see you beautiful hair miss lady

Vent ova...

I preach this over & over & over & over.... but I digress.

I'm so looking forward to Spring. Those are my best growth months. I'm at mbl now. I hope to be wl at the start of summer. Wl natural! :woohoo:

 

[gabulldawg]

I'm so over my hair.

I think you may be right, I notice my stretches can get quite difficult when I'm having a depressive episode, and do a lot of binge eating of junk food and soda.

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

I lost so much hair this wash because I was rushing trying to get ready for a date. smh Gonna keep it tucked away for a few weeks.
