Unmet need = business opportunity for you!

Idk how to go about it tho. I love the natural hair community but sometimes i feel like im not a part of it bc my hair is curly, more curly than kinky :( Even on YouTube its kinda hard to find hair style tutorials with my hair type. Most just do twists or wash n gos. Maybe im not looking hard enough?


Also, i need some good thick cone free conditioners with protein that i can by from a store. I need BIG bottles.
 
wow I am realy meticulous when it comes to giving out used products. I make sure everything is clean and there are no stray hairs, clumps etc.
 
Anyone else's gray hairs grow faster than the rest? I swear I just pulled this sucker out and there it was 2 inches long like "Hahaha... I'm back!"

Lol!!!!! That made my day!

I have a gray hair on my side and when i found it it was the length of an eyelash. I checked about three or four months later, i was able to pull it to chin length. I'll measure it again when i get home.

I guess it's all in the perspective. I tend to see folks having more curly than kinky hair.
 
I'm over using magnetic rollers for the time being. I can't stand to sit under a dryer for two hours. I'll stick with mesh rollers for now, because they cut my drying time in half.
 
Anybody up for curly hair chat? Im thinking about doing it tonite or tomorrow nite, 8pm EST. On Twitter.

My hair got caught in my elbow while washing it this past week. I guess I was glad, but the length surprised me. I'm about bra-strap length.

I have to wash my hair tonight and I guess I will blow dry it even though I'm trying to watch the heat. My twist outs come out better with blow dried hair, not soaking wet hair. I've been thinking about letting a stylist do my next twist out so that I can see if they do it better than me. I taught myself how to flat twist and that was something I thought I simply could not do. There is a new natural hair salon down the street. But if they come at my hair with a small tooth comb, I would leap - I mean LEAP out of the chair.
 
I'm taking my weave out tomorrow night and I'm scared/excited to see how my hair will look. I feel like I got about an inch of growth since it was installed, butt I'm hoping there wasn't any breakage or matting.
 
total product junkie in the making. spent $125 on hair products yesterday from Amazon now already looking at the next things to buy before my items have even shipped and I've had a chance to test them!
 
i finally bought some coconut oil. i don't have a problem using it when the weather isn't cold. now i gotta get some tea for my tea rinses.
 
I finally relaxed/texlaxed today. I say both because I intended to relax, but wound up underprocessing on purpose at the last minute. I also beefed up my routine by doing the Aphogee two step and rinsing with diluted ACV between my two neutralizer shampoos, conditioning, moisturizing, then oiling my scalp with my JBCO mix and sealing. My hair is sooo shiny and healthy-feeling right now, but I'm going to ghe overnight. Let's see how this new regimen works out.
 
My wash n go looked so good yesterday on day Three. Shiny and fluffy. Broke my heart to wash it and put it in a boring ponytail for work :cry2:

Bought a very small bottle of Aphogee 2 Step to use after my relaxer. I think this will be the best thing to do, just buy small bottles of it and use a spray bottle to distribute it throughout my hair so I'm more mindful of how much I use.
 
When I rinsed out my DC I noticed my thick hair texture for the first time in a long time. And it's getting long enough to where I could put it in a pony tail. Nice. On the other hand it's getting warm enough that I think it's time to put away the ACV and get out the baking soda.
 
I meant to post this "Going to be a long night tonight: up dc'ing my hair." in this thread last night.
Sure enough, I was up doing my hair until 1:30 am. :-/
