I love being part of this community and I don't know what I would have done without all the knowledge here. But, I don't feel like I am learning anything new anymore. I feel like I might be personally outgrowing it, but I just want to hang on for dear life.

I hang out in health & makeup forums now. Every now & then I will post in the hair threads when I'm bored.
 
Got my henna mixed. I just mixed it with goya coconut milk and right before I use it ill add some EVCO or jojoba oil. The smell really isn't all that bad to me. I mean its not something I would want to smell more than I have to, but it wasn't completely awful like I was expecting.
 
I got a layed cut over the weekend, my niece took off about three inches. So glad to have my fullness back. I know my rollerset will look good for a while.
 
Time for a (mini) trim and maybe another wash so I can get my curls back; I like the ease of flat ironed hair, but I prefer the look of my curls/coils/waves most of the time.
 
On the tube home from work this lady was staring at me and my hair to the point that I would have worried but she gave off a positive, admiring and inquisitive vibe. She looked like an intelligent, professional black woman so I just smiled back and let her stare lol
 
I think i'm the only woman on earth who cares about the size of my forehead...it hinders my styling options. I need to get over it. All the other ladies are running around with their 5heads hanging out...without a care in the world. If I wasn't teased about it growing up, I prob wouldn't even think about it.

You and me both. ..although people say my forehead isn't large, it sure seems that way to me. And like you it limits my styling options:nono:

Girl...noone says mine isn't (because it is)....but I see soooo many other women who don't seem to care. I wish I wasn't so self conscious about it. I think I might have mild forehead dysmorphic disorder.
 
Lawd!!! I think I'm addicted to castor oil. I may just give-up every other oil as well.
Doing a hot oil treatment with it right now.....

Not just you, I used to get called Smith's Crisps back in the day (80s kid) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtkfE_OWSzo&feature=youtube_gdata_player

That's why I transitioned rather than did the big chop :ohwell:

Getting frustrated at how much work it takes for my styles to actually show. I part the hair and can see the scalp, 5 minutes go by and the style already looks messy because I can't get a line to show, the hair completely covers it or something. Patienceee :(
 
I wanna know who in my city keeps buying up all the shea moisture purification masque! I really want to try it but every time I go to a store its sold out. I'm not buying something online that I should be able to pick up right down the street, I refuse lol
 
i don't know what to do with my hair and it's frustrating me. due to a paycut in my career I can't hit up the salons whenever I want to. However, I don't want to rock a boring wash and go all day every day. I got my hair texturized to make things easier but it's no help because my hair is still crazy short. i think by May my hair will look less awkward (if i maintain retention) but it's still kind of disheartening.

i think the really hard thing about doing any huge hair cut is when everyone but your boyfriend likes it. i feel torn.
 
Think I'll do a strand test on the henna :yep:

It's so funny how I'm so wary now but back in the day I'd throw whatever dye or product onto my hair :perplexed:

It seems as though every time I turn around, there's a new type of braid or twist that I've NEVER heard of! I feel so out of the loop...or old....or both:ohwell:





Off the see wth "havana" twists are...:look:
