Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Kindheart]

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!!!!

sckri23 your hair will be healthy and beautiful in no time .you watch

The last time I did a henna treatment was over 4 years ago. To this day I still have henna in my hair and no amount of hair dye will change the color *sigh*

I just threw out my kimmaytube leave-in I made. It left white snot-like balls in my hair. Probably because i used aloe vera gelly. Thank goodness I only used 1 tbsp of KCKT. Seemed promising. Oh well.

KCKT doesn't play well with some Gels. It gave me hair boogers too.

Thanks BostonMaria. I thought I could substitute that for AVJ bc I didn't want to buy AVJ and store the leave-in in the fridge.

I want to cut my hair so bad. Im scared that people will say bad things about me. I mentioned cutting my hair to someone i know and she said she would" kill me " if i did. I just remember how people hated my other bcs

Washing my hair is so therapeutic.

Organix Hydrating Macadamia Oil Conditioner is amazingly moisturizing. They need to make that stuff in bigger bottles.

I haven't washed my hair in at least a month as they're in small twists. I'm taking them down next week and I can't wait! Doing a full scalp treatment

Napp if cutting your hair makes you happy then I say go for it. If anybody bugs you about it tell them to kick rocks LOL

Why do you want to cut it? Different look? Is it damaged?

Crazy I was against blow dryers for so long but now, I don't know what I would do without one. I love using them to diffuse my hair when curly, and also when I want to straighten. Straightening with a blow dryer/flat iron takes less than 1.5 hours (prolly more like 1 hour 15 minutes, including time for me to towell dry for a 5-10 minutes) versus the 3+ hours I was spending rollersetting/flat ironing. I really enjoy having a routine right now that frees up more time for me just live my life without worrying about hair.

Back to the drawing board looking for a new relaxer. *Big sigh*

What's wrong with your current relaxer? Which one are you using?

I love Tresemme Naturals moisturising conditioner.
It's just so convenient.
Today I'm thinking...right I don't have time for a full DC what can I use? Tresemme Naturals
But oh, my hair needs nutrients strengthening and moisturising what can I use? Tresemme Naturals.
But oh, I need to be detangled in the nick of time! :shock: Tresemme Naturals.

I hate how thin my hair still is in front....so annoying that it didn't bounce all the way back, even two year later.

Starting a new natural hair care regimen today! Gotta reach my goal length by Nov 2013!

 

[spellinto]

about two hours ago I moisturized and then sealed my hair with dax. usually i only apply the dax to the ends of my hair but today i decided to apply it to the entirety of each section (but NOT NEAR MY SCALP). upon application, my strands felt a *tad* bit weighted but very soft. i pinned my hair up in a lose bun with a jaw clip. right now my bun feels very soft & fluffy, but i will take down the bun to see how it looks.

ETA: WOW, my hair feels sooooo soft! not greasy at all! (...except around my edges where i smeared a bucket-load of castor oil ) my strands look smoother & shinier but overall my hair still has that fluffy voluminous look to it. brownie points for grease!

 

[spellinto]

i can't wait to clarify my hair next weekend so i can try my tub of Silk Elements MegaSilk Mayonnaise. I am reading mostly positive reviews about it. I will also be dusting that weekend, which will be so refreshing because I've been tempted to dust all month!

Back to my HG hair products I was using Pantene for like a week or so, just switching things up a bit and it was nice for a little while...but I got sick of the scent reeeally fast and it made my hair feel super coated after a few days. I clarified on Thursday(?) deep conditioned, and have been using my Infusium 23 Moisture Replenisher and Aussie 3 Min Miracle since :3 my hair just loooooooves Infusium, it smells soo friggin good, I don't know why I never hear about it on here or on YouTube. It's a really nice conditioner. I add a lil safflower oil to it and it's like hair crack. *looks at conditioner bottle lovingly* I'm sorry for ever leaving you forgive me? :3

Did the usual today; detangled with Aussie 3 Min, rinsed, and let some Infusium sit on my hair while I showered. Rinsed again, applied some Organix Coconut Milk serum, raked some gel through, shook, and off I went. My hair is really soft and fluffy.

And! I've been wearing my hair with a middle part lately. It's just so much easier. Detangling, styling, everything. My edges are so fragile and having a middle part keeps me from putting a lot of tension on them and what not. My edges have been coming in really nicely :3 I don't want to mess up my progress, so middle part it is.


So this post was long lol. My hair has been on my mind a lot lately.

I love hate washing day. I love the feel of dc on my hair but I don't like the fact I have to be all slow and calculated when detangling my hair. I was looking at my hair while waiting for my protein conditioners time to run out and it got my shirt all mess bc it was hitting my back a bit. That's a good thing because I had so lost hope for any growth. My shrinkage is a mess. I know I will need to find me a new relaxer next year bc ORS lye isn't doing it for me. I may have to do Affirn or Mizani.

It is REALLY GOOD!

I used to use it as a prepoo...

Detangling on damp hair has curbed some of my breakage issues, but I still have to cut off more damaged hair. Got a trim last Saturday and will prep my hair for 8 weeks of senegalese twists! So excited to be taking a break from doing my hair for a while. I will do a protein treatment next weekend with CJ Repair Me...I will deep condition with CJ Curl Rehab the night before my twisting session or maybe I will switch and do the protein/clarifying the night before instead...not sure.

Decided to mix up some amla to make a thick paste, massage onto my scalp and let sit for 30-45 minutes, as the box says. 7 hours later and I'm still sitting here with amla on my scalp and CO on the length of my hair. *sigh* I guess the shower is calling me, huh?

This would've been me with henna except.... I didn't henna like I said I would. Ah well. Rolling with the punches. I'll oil rinse and cowash tonight. Henna and indigo will come later this week. I'd like to have it done by the end of this month. Ehn. We'll see what happens.

 

[NappyNelle]

C'mon hair, grow!

 

[Kurlee]

I HAVE to get to WL by December 2013. MUST! No playing around. I'm on a mission.

 

[leiah]

Henna and a trim coming up. I hope my hair will look super thick after all of that

Aztec Secret Bentonite clay left my hair super dry. I won't be using it anymore.

I like terresentials but the cost is so high and i didnt repurchase. Next I'm going to try SM detox Mask.

If that doesn't work then I'll go back to terresentials.
