Hubby is out for another hour or two and the kids are in bed so, I have some precious, uninterupted time to myself.

I just picked up As I Am Coconut CoWash today and am looking forward to trying it. Buuuuttttt... I'm dead dog tired with a sinus headache. What to do? What to do? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......
 
i dont know if i want long hair any more. the longer my hair gets the more i feel it doesnt flatter me. Im going to see if i can make it to WL by next year. if not i might just cut all my hair off and keep it in a twa.

I can not wait to use up this stash so I can buy something, I've been doing so good going down the beauty isles and not putting nothing in my cart, shoot I want to try that Macadamian conditioner and oil sooooo bad and they're B1G1 at Walgreens this week.
 
Another reason I hate getting my hair braided (at least in cornrows) is my shed hair has nowhere to go while my braids are in so when I take them out and wash, DC and blow dry, more hair than I'm used to comes out in my de tangling comb.:perplexed I know it's my shed hairs but it makes it difficult to monitor growth and retention.:nono:
 
I'm really disappointed to hear about the CurlBox drama and all the other natural hair care vendor drama for that matter...What is with all the excuses, poor service, attitude and houdini acts? We really need to get it together.

Napp I hear you, seems like once some of us realize we can grow long hair then it isn't such a novelty anymore. Long hair isn't always the most flattering on every woman, but healthy hair is. APL is great on me.. but I have a short torso and can't see WL being ideal. I'll probably stay around BSL.. MBL just to say that I did but trim it back eventually.

This is another reason i have started buying products that i can walk into a store and buy...i like that the product is in my hand when i buy it.

So I've been taking an omega 3 supplement consistently for 4 months now and I must say I'm noticing a real difference. The hair growing in is notably softer :yep:
 
I think I'm going to actually get serious about a no-heat regimen. I know that most who grow their hair super long don't use any/much heat. I'm thinking I'm going to limit myself to once a month.

I've been doing a good job of keeping up with my no heat regimen!! I have been alternating between textured buns and roller sets (have rollers in my hair now). I think I will wait until next weekend to use a heat pass for the month of August. IIRC I THINK I last used heat on touch up day (7/28).
 
It's decided I'm getting a trim, just have to make an appointment now. I'll tell her to cut what needs to go and give my hair a nice shape with a U hemline then curl it up so I can't see the lost inches. :lol:
 
After 3 uses of Hair Trigger my hair stopped shedding,i m gonna pull out my staple card on this . I can't believe it!!
 
Qhemet Biologics Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee: Decided to wear my hair in a fro yesterday so used just this after co-washing. The picture below is my hair 13 hours later, after spending all day in an air-conditioned office. My hair is still soft, moisturized, and parting my hair to pineapple at night it was not tangled together. I am tempted to buy 10 bottles, but I will try to behave .

Has anyone used the carrier oils bought from FNWL/Camden Grey/Wholesale Supplies/ITDF/similar companies to cook? Can anyone think of reasons not to?
 
I need to take some back shots of my hair whilst it's freshly relaxed. Scared to check the new length although I'm hoping I'm definitely full bra strap length now..
 
I tried a rollerset using just some conditioner and coconut oil. It doesn't have that crunchy thing going on like my other rollersets. :lol My only concern is if the curls will hold up since I didn't use any type of holding product on the set. We will see. I'll probably pin curl at night again like I did with my last rollerset.
 
Went to a beach picnic last night and the fog rolled in...couldn't see **** but with all that moisture in the air, lawd my hair felt so delicious! Still does :lick:
 
I shouldn't have given coconut milk a try while in yarn braids. I don't know what I was thinking. It was soooo hard to rinse out and the smell is still lingering. I think I'm gonna have to wash again and I'm suppose to have dinner with the SO godparents tonight:nono:. But on a good note my hair does feel very moisturized and I can see clumpy little spirals in my new growth.:lick:
