I haven't been on the hair forum in about 6 months
Sigh my hair has been so neglected trying to untangle this tumbleweed as I watch the following
 
so the PJ in me bought SEVERAL products over the past 2 weeks and they are all finally just arriving. I received products from 2 vendors (HydroQuench Systems and Hairitage Hydrations) yesterday and today. I don't have the patience to dedicate an entire day or week to a specific product to see how it affects my whole head of hair.

So.....10 of the products I bought were daily moisturizers/leave-in conditioners (keep in mind I also bought a few DCs, RO conditioners and styling seriums....my PJ is DEEP). The eager me decided to separate my hair into 10 sections and use each moisturizing product on one section to build a plait. Tomorrow morning I will undo them one at a time and judge each product on the result. hopefully my braid out looks nice and not completely unbalanced in terms of quality lol.
 
I'm so indecisive. I'm going to a formal event on Monday and I want to straighten it bone straight and curl the ends but at the same time I wanna do a bomb twist and curl set. Why is life so hard?!
 
biotin/working out/water are my hair regimens now. I have never had hair growth this rapid in my life. Ever. Ever. It's amazing.

This was my hair two weeks ago!!

And this is my hair today.

I did not have enough hair to flat iron in front of my face just earlier this month. I am just so happy. I will keep taking 2 GNC tablets of biotin (6000mgs daily) and working out and drinking water. I really think it's making my hair flourish!

Thanks LHCF for introducing me to this miracle hair pill.
 
I just got rid of all the half full bottles of co wash conditioner by decanting them all into one big bottle. do you know how many bottles i recycled. ....7
7 bottles of conditioner. IDK whether its better to have a more streamlined stash. or i just made room for more. ;)
 
further reinforcement of why I need to PS more...My hair just got snagged on my chair and I felt it break off :( I'm going to miss that (hopefully only) 1 strand.
 
It's timew to refill my Aubrey organics deep conditioners stash again. Hmmm, this time, I think I will be getting 2 bottles of each one I love:yep:.
 
Did I ever mention the time I went to the BSS around the corner to get a wig and when the lady was putting on my wig cap and asked the other lady working if she had been doing some cleaning?

She was smelling the sulfur/peppermint/tea tree oil scalp concoction I was wearing! :lachen:

Yes, I told her what it was. She was a little embarrased, so I told her not to worry and let her know exactly what she was smelling. Didn't want her to think I was putting Pine-Sol on my head or something. :look:

I can't believe I spent so long worrying about the amount of shedding I got per day, when the solution was a simple tea rinse :nono:

Yes, navila, please provide details for us. What kind of tea? How much water added? Any EOs added? Did you wait for tea to cool or just room temp? Inquiring minds want to know. TIA!

@Aggie

gorgeoushair,

I love AO GPB, AOWC, AOHSR and AOIN. Iwant to try the Rosa Mosquetta this time around for the first time just to see if I like it. I am always looking for a good moisturizing deep conditioner. T

here are sooooo many protein ones out there and my protein conditioner stash outweighs my deep moisturizing conditioner stash and I am desperately trying to balance them out.

And yes I order mine online at www.vitaglo.com or www.vitacost.com. I order from www.iherb.com as well.
 
Either my hair is reverting, which never happens after a relaxer, or my regimen + exercise is really working because I feel some new naps growing in.

Also, maybe I'm crazy, but I swear my hair is growing in a different texture. It's not as naptastic as it used to be and it's growing in wavy in some places. It looks like crimped, wavy hair now.

Do you take msm supplements? I've heard that its capable of changing the hair texture
 
After weeks of denial and crazy edges, I finally broke down and bought some headbands and hair gel.
Maybe I won't look so crazy about the head anymore. :lol:
 
Since i'm co washing daily i find i dont need as many products when i moisturise and seal. also, the less leave in products i use the more elastic my hair is. my elasticity is something major. interesting
 
9 weeks post and I have no urgency to get a touch up. My new growth is pretty managable with frequent cowashes. Maybe this time I will make it to 16 weeks.
 
Hubby just told me my hair looks nice and said it is growing! My hair was air drying in 4 celies. He also said it was much thicker and he said it was shiny! Yay!

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y

Hi guys! I use regular green tea that I got from Trader's Joe. I boil about a cup of water and use two tea bags. I let it cool down completely and do a final rinse with it. Pretty straight forward.
 
I need to take down my cornrows so bad but I just don't want to. I really hope there is no matting. I really don't like being bothered with my hair as it's not perfect or anything and it seems so hopeless. I just one one aesthetic thing to work in my favor come on hair do something good thing year.
 
So jealous of my sisters natural hair and her wash and goe's :( I cant wait till mine gets like that.... already natural but. Ugh. Patience bry.
