Went through and based my scalp. Will let it sit tonight and then see if there are any tender spots in the morning and rebase those areas. Will relax on Monday morning. Cant be bothered with looking like wth at work anymore. Its quite embarrassing. Hope this time my hair will be straighter with this relaxer time. Also will not go past 12 weeks anymore. I have had a big bout with tangles not cute. Will use my Silicon Mix as a dc after relaxing and doing a semi-permanent color on my hair.
My new hair goal is to reach bra strap by dec. 31. Thats about 3 inches. I plan to do protective styles to protect those ends and no heat. Yea, i can do it! Im currently 16 months natural (big chop) and 3 years and 2 months since my last relaxer.
I need a trim--that much is clear. But my hair still feels so good from the Curl Junkie. I shouldn't have used the olive oil on my ends though. My hair is a little hard where I applied the oil.
I took the boys to a kids party today, and got a few compliments on my hair. :Blush2: I must say...the longer it gets, the better it looks! I look at those EL pics, and I'm like Never Again!!
I think I've raved about my Curl Junkie experience in every thread!
Now to do it in this one
I am pleased. I mean, I really expected them not to work. I've had very little success lately with keeping moisture in my strands. A product would work initially while my hair is wet, but once completely dry--
Out of the 4 CJ products I have, I am only on the fence about 1 and that's the Smoothing Lotion. I don't know if I used that product correctly. I used it on wet hair. I will try it on damp and dry hair before completely giving up on it. Then again, I don't know if using it in conjunction with the Honey Butta is what really brought out the moisture levels in my hair.
I'm going to use the line for an entire month, and if it continues to be a hit, I will advance the products to HG status!
I am not buying anything: hair products, beauty products, clothes, shoes, accessories until April 2013. I will only replace hair/beauty stuff if I run out of something I need.
I m mad at myself for buying 7 KBB products ,...2 masks ,1hair nectar,2 jojoba oil , Love butter , 1 cremeliscious . I m an impulsive buyer When it comes to hair products , i got serious issues .
thinking of hiding my hair under some half wigs and twists but loving my length and curls now that the frizz is under control - yay shea moisture and wen products. What to do, what to do
Finally came across tresemmes naturals conditioner today and jumped on it. I also bought something new - VO5 nourish me truly conditioner. The bottle says it has 5 kinds of oils. Let's see if it works out. This should satisfy the urge to buy wen 613 for the time being.
A couple of weeks ago I decided I was going to start putting oil in my hair every night regardless of whether it was dry or not. I think it's working very well and my breakage is a lot less than it was before. Before I used to "listen" to my hair and put oil or moisturise it when it felt dry. I used to wait for it to feel dry. By the time it's dry it is already too late. It has already prepared to break off.
I have to treat my hair like a new born baby and just oil it every night regardless because it cannot communicate with me properly
I do a length check in January and in July. I get so excited about the progress I make each time. But then I look t my previous length check and think......was I really excited about THAT. LoL I love my hair and all the progress is has made in these last few years.
My brother comes up to me this morning and says " I wish you would tell our cousins about hair care. They don't always have to slap a relaxed on their hair."
Everytime I see someone with pretty curly hair it makes me want to wear my hair curly.
But then once I wear it curly for a day or two the novelty wears off. If I could get my wash n go's to last 3-4 days.
