I don't think I can do an all day DC. Its only been 2.5 hrs and it's driving me crazy. I will try to make it until 1 and then I'm done.
 
So I'm in a supplement growth challenge and a topical growth challenge. And I'm working out regularly. I need to increase my water and I'll be good to go.
 
grrrr. lol. washed, dc'ed and did all that stuff last night...and then today at work, one of the children dumps sand on my head. thaaaanks a lot. i was gonna skip a wash tonight, but looks like i'll be doing one anyway. a good, long rinse.

reminds me of that post about how often you wash your hair...and i mentioned that part of the reason i wash my hair so much is because of my job. haha if it's not sand, it's snot or dirty hands on your head or food lol.

good thing i love my job.
 
I'm not a fan of cold weather AT ALL! And so I've been kind of upset that the weather is starting to turn.

But I just remembered that cold weather means I get to wear beanies! And do treatments underneath :sekret:. My transitioning hair loved hiding under beanies last winter. I wonder how my natural hair will feel.

Kindheart[/USER];17132377]@faithVA I believe there is a maximum amount of conditioner that hair can absorb ,2.5 hours is more than enough for most DC s .:yep:

I think 1 hr with heat is good for me. I won't be doing that anymore :lol:
 
Aphogee 2 step how I love thee. My hair gets over moisturized so easily but you fix it for me and restore the balance every time, leaving my strands silky soft and strong. Now if only you didn't sting do bad when you drip into my eye.

Going to the natural store to buy some Giovanni leave in and some Aubrey organics after work. 1.5 hrs to go! Hope they live up to the hype

It took me years to try both and I must say...I was not disappointed! Aubrey GPB and Honeysuckle Rose are the ones I tried along with Giovanni Direct. All are staples for me now.

I did this for the first time last week...DC all day at work and I can't wait to do it more this winter :)
 
is it bad that i skipped on buying a product solely because "castor oil" was spelled wrong in the ingredient list? haha. it was listed as "caster oil" ...it was trendsetter brand (which does knock offs of name brands)...found it in stop & shop last night.

That excites me! Can't wait to wash my hair tomorrow. I really need lots of moisture and a perfect leave in and I think the time has come. Lol
 
Irritated.

I have gone three months w/no heat on my hair. Flat ironed two small sections last week, applied heat protection, one pass..those sections are still somewhat straight. Its getting cooler and I want to be able to wear my hair straight every blue moon w/o having to worry about heat damage.
 
It's my favorite time of the year! End of fall and creeping into winter which means more use out of my dryer for deep conditioning. Sitting under it right now, getting ready to do a blow out for my Afro geisha Halloween get up :-)
 
I was sick of this thick nappy hard to detangle hair last night. Yesterday as it took me over two and a half hours to cowash, detangle, moisturize and twist up my hair for a twistout today I wished for a silkier texture where the comb could just glide on through. Yeah, I said it. Some days dealing with all this thick 4a hair that tangles all the time is frustrating. Meh.
 
Ugh when my hair gets right, I wont have to take all these steps for healthy hair. My wash days will be (co-cleanse, co-wash, dc, leave in, air dry) not all that extra stuff. Alot of this stuff im doing now will be optional. No cold air blow drying, my wash days will be so short I will actually have time to let it air dry in the t-shirt. Ugh I cant wait for that day!!!!
 
I've given my hair up...just keeping it simple. Haven't purchased any products and have narrowed it down to the few I will use.

Will give some stuff away, I guess. The stress of life has gotten in the way and I care less and less about my hair.
 
When in the world did Sally's start selling Shea Moisture products??? Just looked at the site and saw it on the home page. I feel so behind on the times stuck out here in no man's land.
 
I tried Ouidad 12 minute treatment and it was just ok for something so expensive. I do much better with my Lora's Shea butter mixed with a bunch of stuff. I had such high hopes for it.
 
I loves me some Aussie Moist 3 Minute Miracle. Inexpensive, doesn't take long to do it's job, and leaves my hair feeling sooo soft :lick:
 
Back to youtubing and googling to death......huh, variety makes things easier....
My poor Search button...:giggle:
