Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Don't worry be happy
Anyone know a site similar to fotki that is free/reasonably priced? I want to organize and share all my recipes and go back to documenting hair progress.

It would be nice to share albums/recipes like the old LHCF days :smile:

Who remembers Kenya Doll?!! After seeing this commercial my sister and I begged our mother for this doll for Christmas. We received her and loved her.
My dad got one for me when I was around 5 or so. Loved that doll so much. I also learned how to braid using her as practice lol.

I finally went and got my hair shaped today, I’m very happy with it. And I can finally wear my hair out. After wearing wigs for two months I’m done, I can’t do it anymore,

I’m just hoping these yt people have nothing to say to me. When I wore my wig they wanted to give “compliments”, I just hope they ignore me.

I put in passion twists while I was out on vacation and I so hope my co-workers ignore my hair. Every single change, it's like their spirit compels them to say something. smh.

I hate that whenever I change my hair (which is infrequently) I always worry what my coworkers will think/say

Thank you Lord for opening my eyes. For so long I resisted natural and simple. Now its all I do.

Somehow I thought natural/ayurvedic treatments wouldn't work for me. Some things may work better for some but hair is hair :yep: Indian/pakistani hair YTers are a goldmine :bookworm2:. These "hair pack" recipes are :up:

I'm sitting here listening to hindi tamil telugu and urdu trying to listen for keywords:thought: :lol:

Off the top of my head and thinking of what I use it for (gathering various ref pics), I use imgur.
I usually just keep the albums private and share the link to whoever I want instead of publishing it publicly to the imgur site

I think I’m going to try to get in one more hair wash & blow out since it seems like Baby LavenderMint is planning to take his time. I’ve had the scissors itch too; I’m probably going to cut off these thin & splitting ends before I take down my twists. I’ll be in protective styles for a while anyway so any unevenness likely won’t matter.

How long are folks keeping hair products? I'm doing the math on a few and I think it might be time to pitch them just based off having them so long (and using them so infrequently). Idk.

Don't laugh. I'm almost close to finishing the bottle of IC Fantasia heat protectant serum that I bought back in 2010. I've been using it once or twice a year since then. I bought a new bottle of it last year since it's so old but still using the old one. Still works. No heat damage. :look: :lachen:

Lol. No judgement from me. I have a jar of QBATB. I know I haven't purchased it since I've lived in my condo. I've been in my condo since Spring 2014. It's still half full. I had a jar of some popular butter so long the scent disappeared.

I think we have similarly 'aged' IC Fantasia serum:lachen:. I will rarely (if ever) throw a serum heat protector. I have a selection so IC isn't the first one I always reach for but I still use it. With all my old-school or tried and true products, if it still looks and smells right (and in some cases feels right), it's a keeper.
