APrayer4Hair First off, your curly coils are sooo beautiful! But on topic, your nape is just like mine. I just embrace it. I'd hate to deal with keeping up with trimming it and I want my hair to continue growing the same length everywhere.
 
My 2013 hair goal is to be consistent with my products and regimen. I have been all over the place in 2012 and my hair turned out fine, but I am not sure my luck will hold up as the hair gets older so I need to get it together. I also want to settle into a new normal with my hair.
 
Today is my birthday and I haven't bought hair items in MONTHS. I'm gettin me a new blow dryer and maybe a couple products today :)

I have NO idea lol! I was gonna take a stroll through Sally's and see what they have. The one I have now is just a Conair ionic. Idk the whole name anymore cuz it's all worn off lol but it's red. I've had it for 4 years and its finally kicking the bucket lol.
 
DC for 2 hours last night. Was too tired to detangle so this morning i shoved it under my wig. Tonight I will detangle. 20 weeks post relaxer.....
 
Last week, a bunch of Caucasian women saw my hair and started telling me how much they love naturally curly hair.

"Oh, thank you so much!" I said, never revealing that I was rocking a crochet weave with a head full of bohemian braid hair. :giggle:
 
I've been using grease and setting my hair on smaller rollers actually and my short hair has been pretty sleek and styled. Well, last night I didn't feel like rolling all of my hair nor did I feel like sleeping on them really. Smaller is a lil bit tighter and I was getting a bit concerned. Well. last night I just set the bang area. Just 6 rollers in two rows at the top. Worked very well. That curl wax really has the back of my hair laid, but it looks styled a bit. Like it's not just straight down, it looks like I flat-ironed a lil bump in there. Basically it kept my rollerset and curls from the previous night set. I love it. My hair does look a bit shorter since it's not all stacked as much, but it looks fine. Another reason why I'm happy that I don't relax bone-straight. The added whatever, really does preserve the thickness of my hair where I can rock a sleek look without it looking lifeless.

Oh another thing....after my bath when my hair is probably a lil humid, that's when I grease my scalp real sporatically and pretty quickly and then put curl wax on my edges, nape and a bit throughout my hair and just lay it down w/ a scarf. Then later that night before bed is when I rollerset. Will definitely keep this going. Still want to see if I can make it 2 weeks w/o washing. I just wanna go there.
 
Tomorrow I'm gonna go buy myself some more Organix Repairing Awapuhi Ginger Conditioner. :lick: I'm thinking of an extra 2 bottles; can't do without that stuff it's heavenly, makes washing my hair so so so enjoyable. To the point that I can't wait to wash my hair just to use it or to use up extra conditioner to GET to use it.

ETA: Maybe I'll add it to the unflavoured gelatin recipe.

I am so itching to buy this conditioner, I saw the shampoo, conditioner and hair oil at Walmart the other day. I picked it up and put it right back down. But I still want to try it, playing hooky from work to finish my last paper. I think I am going to run out and get it today.

The macadamia oil conditioner by Organix is also very good but the awapuhi is more moisturizing. I don't know how well the shampoo works, I don't mess around too much with shampoo because I've already found my staple that I probably will never give up but those two conditioners hands down are my new staples. :yep: Sigh, they're just too good LOL, Lissa0821.
 
did a french braid on my twists. meh...it looks okay. im still trying to learn. it kinda looks like there's something there, but you cant really totally tell that it's supposed to be a french braid, at least i dont think haha. oh well.
 
I had a moment last night. I was trimming my hair and was soooo tempted to take off a looot :look: trimming can be addictive. I never understood it before when ppl would say that on here, but now I get it lol.

@ Aireen I picked it up today the shampoo, conditioner and hair oil. I also got the Coconut Milk shampoo, conditioner and serum. I am keeping the receipt and taking it right back to Walmart if I don't like it. Curiosity got the best of me, plus I want a new fragrance of products for my hair.
 
For a little over a week I've been mixing a pea sized bit of Aubrey Honeysuckle Rose Conditioner in with the avocado oil I use to seal after adding my leave-in. It' good stuff. My hair looks smoother and there's a ton more shine. I've occasionally also used it like that in the morning when I'm styling.

Ya. I had a moment a few weeks ago, cut a good bit more than I planned lol.
 
Fully moisturised hair feels good. I kept touching my hair to see if it would dry out. Tonight it was just as soft as this morning so whatever I did this weekend on wash day will be on permanent repeat :drunk:...
 
This guy at work saw what website I was on and read it out loud. I am slightly embarrassed. Especially as my hair is short. At least he didn't see my avi.

I take iron supplements for low iron but hate taking them so, I'll often skip taking them. When I stop taking them for too long, I get random itchiness. If I scratch at all, it sets off out of control itchies.

Well, I haven't taken them in maybe 2 weeks and I went to my son's basketball game, tryna be all cute in my half wig. I was cute. Until my neck started itching. One little harmless itch. I scratched it and then, for whatever reason scratched one spot on my scalp. It wasn't even itching. That set off crazy itchy scalp. Talk about wanting to snatch that wig off! :lol: I did. I went in the ladies room and snatched that mug off and REALLY set off the itchies. I had to go home and take some Benadry. I also put some sulfur mix on my scalp, just in case my scalp was dry. I don't know. Just had to do something.

I'm laughing at myself now because there were a few ladies in rest room at the mirror but I didn't give a hoot. I snatched that mug off like my scalp was on fire. Onlookers? Ain't nobody got time for that! :grin:

By the time I got home, my back, legs and tummy was itching too. I slathered on hydrocortizone cream and got back to the game before the Benadry knocked me out. Hubby drove us home and six hours later, I'm finally awake.

Just wanted to say this outloud.

I started itching while reading this Lool

I am in such a hair funk right now. I need a good DC and have time but... I just don't wanna. I'm feeling hair-lazy and unmotivated today. Blahhhh...
I need some motivation. Or, maybe a nap. Who knows. Sheesh. I hope some of my hair goodies are delivered today. Maybe that'll help. Ah well... :ohwell:
