Fantasizing about relaxing and dusting my hair in a couple of days. I hope I see a big difference in length (the Health is already here) and plus I took hairfinity. So hope that helped a bit
 
Finally got my 2nd weave installed. I opted for a full weave because at 4 months post with 4z hair it ain't gonna stay flat and straight if I had a leave out. Having a full weave is like wearing a helmet :O I feel like a football player.

Anyway, keeping this baby in for 12 weeks appx until September. Avoiding direct heat the rest of the summer!! When I take this out, I'll be 7 months post :O or maybe closing in on ear length/neck length natural, if I follow the same growth patterns from my last BC! Yay!

Pictures attached.

I need to learn how to cornrow. Thanks Mom for dropping the ball on all 3 of your daughters. My hair is long enough to cornrow, if I knew how.

Don't feel bad. My mom didn't teach me how to cornrow either.:sad: I can't even imagine how much money I could have saved over the years on weaves and braids.:wallbash:
 
I have been beyond lazy wiry my hair it's a joke

Bunned it all week for work literally didn't touch it smmfh

Now to sort this mess out lord help me :lachen:
 
I've been plagued with migraines aaaalllll week :/ I think I need to just wear my hair loose a free for a while (I've been wearing updos/semi updos) until I start feeling better. I've been taking Excedrin like crazy.


I WILL master the art of the flat twist!! I have the front of my hair twisted today and it just didn't come out quite like I wanted it to. You can do so much with twists/flat twisting so I'm really going to commit to improving. I'm looking forward to plump, moisturized looking twist styles. I'm also going to try doing a roller-set sometime this year (I purchased rollers a while back, still haven't tried them out yet). I want to start practicing and improving so that when cool weather comes I can show off more of my length without having to use heat. I just want more go to styles in my arsenal. One thing about long natural hair is that the stuff you could get away with when you had a small fluffy fro, you can't really get away with when your hair is much longer.

I cannot wear anything tight on my head or have a tight hairstyle. I will get dizzy and get terrible headaches. I have to let my hair air dry loose and not in tight braids because as it shrinks it pulls and I get a headache.

I know, right! And I wasn't even doing it tight, I even tried to just loosely pin it up into a bun with some bobby pins but it felt horrible. I just can't wear my hair up like that anymore. Even half up half down has been too much as of late. I tried a headband and got a killer headache.

I was wearing a cute headband one day and I started feeling terrible. I thought I was going to pass out. Strange awful headache. I took off the headband and within half an hour I felt like a different person.

I think I'm going to start doing some light scalp massages at night for a while and see if it helps relieve some of the pain/tension. I guess I'll just wear my hair down from now on or only do those other styles on special occasion.
 
I chopped off like two inches today. I washed my hair and got tired of straight ends. Happy they are gone bc they were weighing my hair down. Now they are gone and my ends curl naturally. I did big flat twists and I hope the end result will be worth it. I need to get my hair shaped up by a stylist bc it will look a mess when it is straightened. Happy I mini-chopped.
 
Felt so nice to rinse my hair my hair hasn't seen water in forever

Tomo I'll deep condition and do my wash and go I'll prob have to get under the dryer because it won't dry for work Monday morning
 
I have a feeling when this bonnet comes off I am going to have smashed curls everywhere. I went from wearing curls all the time to how the heck I did it. Sometimes I can get away with sleeping however and sometimes I have to sleep like a princess
 
My hair has been so dry and tangled this week. Today I almost got super frustrated but I just threw it in a pony tail and let it be...
 
The vitamin shoppe near my house had a bunch of old formulation AO products so I stocked up. I don't like the way the new formulations smell.
 
I hate when I'm sloppy with my shower cap and part of my hair gets wet. My braids took forever to dry after wash day and now half of one is wet. Arghh!!
 
I hate how my weave looks and feels. It feels like a helmet and looks like a weave. Way too heavy. Gonna go in tomorrow and fix it and get a cloth closure so that it looks more real and doesn't add 5 lbs to my head. I hate paying the extra money but I don't want to deal with this hair until the fall.

I know what you mean. Those closures canbe terrible if the stylist doesn't do them right. Wigs can be lighter and look more natural.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y
 
I know everyone will be judging me for swimming with these plaits in my head but it will all be worth it when I'm washing my hair tonight.

Also, I'm so ready for this transition to be over. 30 more months to go :cry:

Are we talking lacefronts? Then the answer is no.
