I HATE wearing these french braids every other day to work....I know I don't look it but I feel like Maimie! Ugh... I need to practice flat twisting tonight....
 
Just noticed it's bee n three months since my last henna. I'll measure the gray hair for tracking purposes and do my henna this weekend.
 
I'm flat ironing all winter. Sick and tired of removing gobs and gobs of hair from the bath tub everytime I detangle.
 
My head is so cold when I step outside now that I'm **********. :lol:
I was never a hat girl but now I understand. i need hats for xmas! I want my momma to knit me a cute one but she's still mad about my bald head so idk how that will go.
I am a little nervous about seeing my family in a few days in general.

ETA: Wow balddheaded is censored lmao.
 
I tried Elasta QP Olive Oil and Mango Moisturizer, my hair is no longer bone dry.

Other than that my hair and I are on speaking terms again. I'm glad that I didn't cut it when I felt like it. I would have gone from WHIP length to SL.
 
Another long hair dream last night. My natural hair was hanging at SL and i was telling a friend that it's HL. I stretched it down and it was at the bottom of my rear. I'm not sure what length that is but it's definitely beyond HL.
 
My word. I'm gonna have my hair done by a professional for the first time in a year.

:pray: Lord PLEASE don't let a repeat of last year happen again this year
 
i can't wait till i get to wsl i have never had hair that long. of course with the shrinkage it will be sl or a lil longer. leaving my twists in instead of twistouts is making for more moisture retention. i may keep this up until april or may. i just moisturize and seal my twists, then put them in a ponytail. i run castor oil along the last 2-3 inches a few times a week along with moisturizing and sealing the entire length of the hair.

:look: i've been leaving soul glo marks on my downcoat and pillowcases but i don't care:lol: i'm doing laundry in a few:yep:
 
I saw the loveliest set of locs on the most beautiful young lady. I felt very awkward starring at her so I told her how pretty they were and she seemed genuinely surprised and flattered by the complement.
 
Sooooo, I've been asked SO many times this week if my hair is a WIG!!! I've NEVER before this been asked that and the answer is No (b/c usually it is a wig when I've been asked that lol). Feels great to say NO to that question!!!

Here's how I've been wearing my hair:

TamedTresses I didn't want to hijack ole girl's thread, but I saw we have the same siggy :lol: Just different cuts of the scene....how many times did that girl twirl??!!

I lost count, but I'm sure she was dizzy. That's probably why she said she was going back to her room...but I'm pretty sure she twirled all the way back to her room too. :lol:
 
I FINALLY got bullied into getting a Sally's beauty club card.....I don't even shop in there like that:ohwell:(some sales associates really get on my last nerve with all the badgering, you would think their life depended on it). I guess they might not be doing that well anymore, It was 2.50.
 
Soooooo I took out my sew in and got to play in my hair that hasn't been relaxed since April. Nope, not about this natural life. Nah son. Y'all will have to pry my perm jar away from my hands first. :nono:
 
I'm SO loving the thickness of my Celie braids now that I'm natural. I'd been relaxed for as long as I can remember so, this is all new to me. Especially after moisturizing and sealing damp hair. The way my ends curl and the thickness of the braids is just :drool: I love it. I can't wait til my braids/twists hang around bsl. :lick:

LOL it was $2.50? :lachen: My mum got badgered into getting one too - she even got one for me and I rarely go in there. :ohwell:

I swear all the sales associates are the same, they hardly know what they're talking about but think they know it all. I'll never forget when everyone was on the Tangle Teaser bandwagon and we didn't have it in Canada yet but I asked for it and one of the associates says to her co-worker "Oh she wants something called a Tangle Teaser?" Co-worker replies "Why? Her hair's not tangled... :perplexed" I was flattered but geez, I didn't ask all that.

I asked about a BKT and the sales lady who was also my church member asked me if I was going natural cause " a keratin treatment is for natural hair" I just told her yea cause I wanted to know the different prices.
 
Did a rollerset on dry hair last night with a lil Tresseme cond...love the results. I'm loving my flatironed hair so much these days. Tomorrow is salon day can't wait.
 
I look forward to getting my sew in. I really don't like being bothered with my hair sometimes. I wish my hair dresser lived closer, there are plenty times I'd like to get a professional bd/fi and let someone else just deal with it. At least with my sew in my hair will get a break and I'll have some nice full hair to put in a ponytail and pin curls.

But you still got the $5 to use after the next day, right? I always use those towards something I may not have tried otherwise because of the price and because you can always return if it doesn't work. I also go to Sally's for my conditioning caps in bulk.

If anyone is ever in Columbia, SC, call the Sally's on Bush River Rd and see if BJ is in. Her knowledge and assistance will make the visit worthwhile. I know this location has also employed students from the beauty school less than a mile away.
