Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Well, I didn't give in to touching up my roots but I got a little scissor happy and cut off 4 inches of hair. I am back to shoulder length and couldn't be happier. The horrible layer cut I got years ago is almost even and gone. I don't plan on using heat anything soon. Other than that my hair regime in on point so I know every inch will be back in no time.
 
so i lied i wasnt done with the shopping yet:look:

Keracare Natural Textures Leave In Conditioner

KeraCare Edge Tamer

Keracare Natural Textures Twist and Define Cream

:grin:
 
I had a great though long arse task conditioning my hair then blowdrying and flatironing it straight...took hours! I cant wait to see how it turns out tomorrow when I take it down.

Finally convinced my younger sister to try a braidout on her hair, (her hair is constantly straight) and she got so many compliments on it. Day 2 of the braidout and she's freaking out not knowing what to do, I suggest a pretty head scarf and now she's smiling again and thinks I'm a genius!

Hello! What is the name of your seller for the little round banana clips? I usually see it come up when I search on ebay, but I'm not today. They might not be selling any right now. I have ONE non-broken one left! Eek!
 
I can say that i am finally happy with my hair..i can wear a rollerset and looks nice..and my curly bangs hang over me eyes...love it..
 
Twist are so not for me!!! Wish I could rock them though! Too many knots at the end on the takedown.

The last time I purchased, they were basically out of stock. The vendor I normally purchase is HLAccesorries. I did a quick ebay search and came up with another vendor. They sell in smaller lots and their colors are not that desirable. I prefer black clips to match it up with everything I wear. I will be crying when all of mine break because they are very hard to find and come by.
 
I need a sister or something to come do my hair for me.As I have been progressing in my fitness I have had less and less desire to do my hair.That includes prepooing,dcing for more than a few hours etc.I start a new job in Feb and am thinking real hard about just relaxing my hair.I feel some kind of way about wearing wigs in a now finally professional position.If I do stay natural for a bit longer I will just have to splurge a little and have to shop at the undesirable Asian bss to get a few nice wigs that look like natural hair so my hair doesn't look bad..anybody want to make a prepoo for me and send it lol
 
I have a long ways to go to recover from the tangle teaser breakage and the Denman breakage. I was in denial about the Denman. Even modified it messed up my hair. I flat ironed my hair last night and I could see how thin it was. I have hair almost apl and some neck length and shorter. Sigh. I can't trim it. It is varying in length. It isn't that serious I guess. It could be worse.

I used repair me and oyin honey hemp conditioner. I used hair dew on wet hair as a leave in. My hair was so detangled. Feels good though.

No more brushes, or elastic headbands.

What's up with the ladies hair on GMC "Sugar Mommas" and "She's Still Not Our Sister"?
Jazmine Lewis' hair is so sadly super thin. Terri Vaughn has visible tracks. Azur De has worn out edges. And Rachel True's hair looks very dry, worn and crispy. Not quite sure what's going on with Drew Sidora's edges. Kinda looks like she's natural with a silky weave? And poor Kellita Smith just looks really tired.

Ok, off to do a scalp massage.
 
This is a wonderful rollersetting video. I hope it helps someone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cxd1b-8TDVc Idk why my dumb behind never thought to use the capped rollers and just use a clip on the ones that were wobbly. After my hair hiding session is over Im going back to rollersetting atleast twice a month. Smooth hair = happy hair for me.
 
HanaKuroi That type of breakage has happened to me before. The kind were its just so horrible it makes no sense to trim it because its impossible to even up. Just keep it conditioned and it will all grow back. :kiss:

And if you store the caps INSIDE of the rollers when not in use, they will always have a nice snug fit.
 
SuchaLady Thanks for replying. I mostly wear braidouts or braidout tucked buns and the damage can't be seen. You give me hope.

I have a question. Is it really effective to moisture and seal hair everyday? The reason I ask is after you have moisturized and sealed the first time after a wash, wouldn't the act of sealing the hair prevent anymore moisture from getting in?

Would that mean that the additional times you moisturize/seal that week be pointless? Is the hair only feeling moist because the moisturize and oil are sitting on top of the hair?

Please help!:perplexed

jillybean2012 I'm no expert but the elements, wind, sun our environment wears on our strands and causes moisture loss throughout the day. As you go along in your journey you may find that you need to moisturize and seal less or more depending on the condition of your hair and the needs of your hair...you can start with moisturizing an sealing once a day and see how it feels..then for a few days change it up and see how it feels. I think the key when moisturizing and sealing is to be sure not to use a lot of product..whatever amount you think you should be adding, use less:yep: Others will likely have different opinions but that's what has worked for me.
 
The hubby came back from Harbor Freights last night with a surprise. He bought me some 3mil gloves while shopping for car/motorcycle tools. he said it was for when I do my mud thing (aka henna). I love me some him
