Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I'm a straightened natural but my hair is braided right now for vacation and I've gotten some interesting reactions from white people who are used to seeing my hair straight.:giggle:
 
Is there a waist length 2014 challenge? I searched, but couldn't find one. I would start one on my own, but I wouldn't have time to keep track of everyone. :ohwell:
I would love to be waist length by May 2014, because my senior prom would be around then. I promised myself that if I made it, I would wear my hair down and out and free myself from my constant high buns.
So, if anyone plans on starting a WL 2014 challenge, let me know. You would be my hero.:look:
 
My hair seems to do really well with tourmaline heat tools. Last week, I dyed my hair, did a light blow dry with my tourmaline hair dryer and rollerset with flexirod overnight. The next morning, I flat iron my roots with my mini Sedu revoultion. Since that time I have had very little breakage, my hair looks and feels very full. I brought a tourmaline hooded hair dryer off ebay and plan on starting to rollerset again.
 
Soooo I cut my hair again. I don't know, I think I'm going through some phase or something but yeah, I was really sick of my hair. It's too short but it'll grow back, I guess.

Aireen, oh no, how short is it? I am sure it looks good though.
 
So, I've finally given in to washing in parts. As I already knew, it does make life easier. Detangling is a snap, and I'm able to finger comb much easier. Curls are popping more, and product is getting smoothed in much more uniformly.

There...I admitted it!! Washing in sections is Awesome!!

I stopped pulling at my nape for a while and I've noticed it has grown. Now I've started pulling at it again. I need to stop.

Hey divachyk, I missed you! How've you been?! How's your hair?

Uhmmm... I think shorter than APL in the back, it's in choppy layers so I basically consider myself to be SL again lol. I'm glad because I needed a change but I hate the actual cut. :perplexed

Hi Aireen, missed you also. :grin: My hair is much better post chop, thx for asking. I have one last whack patch remaining that I would love to choose but will wait. If I chop, I would be about APL. I am slightly beyond APL now (I think). How is your hair now? Did your regular stylist trim/cut it?
 
I used a sample of Green Tea Cleansing Milk from Brendita's Body Works and I have to say wow. My hair was extremely moisturized. I think I like it. A lot of her products sound delicious and samples are only $2. I'm loving this! I ordered 6 samples.

I've been considering a whole line and I think I'm going to mix her products up with conditioners that I get from Trader Joe's since I am switching to a cowash only regimen. *rubs hands while doing an evil laugh* Time to place another order.

At least it's only one, right? Not a couple all over your head, divachyk.

My hair's fine, it was fine before too, I was just bored with it. I regret the cut now but it'll grow back. I'm in another country so a scissor happy stylist cut 3-4 inches of my hair off. I can't blame her though, although she cut off more than she said she would. I've lost so much hair this year but I think that's just because I've been having urges to get my hair cut super short, the long hair thing is tiring for me right now. I'm going through a phase, I guess.
