Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

After a protective styling detangling the hair is the worst. I have to get rid of the shed hair before anything wet touches my strands. I usually use a creamy oil and finger detangle. I think I should be able to clarify it tomorrow.

So my solo hair care run may be coming to a end. I haven’t touched a stylist in 20 yrs and liked that way as I had mental blocks but now that I’m trying to level myself up I may have to let go of the insta wigs and start doing more high end things like tape ins. This is a huge step.
Tape ins are hard to remove right?

I think I am going to semi-exclusively use Redken products until I finish up my stash. I just used the extreme length shampoo and conditioner and they were divine! I forgot how good their products are! I might stay with those products depending on how well my hair does with them in these next few months.

Put off wash day for another week and I hate it. It's been a month since I washed my hair but grad school is so grueling. Will wash it this weekend and then dry to wash it every two weeks for a little bit to put back the moisture in my hair. Need to find ways to make washdays much shorter though.

I might try and use a rinse out conditioner every other week (thinking about getting the Adwoa one soon) so I can have some wash days that are shorter.

Yo could use your current deep conditioner as a rinse out conditioner. Shorter wash days are the best.

I keep hemming and hawing over my hair. I was going to put some type of curl loosening treatment but looking back I didn’t retain any length when I had these treatments in. I’m trying to grow to TBL by 2025 so retaining length is important for me right now. My hair texture isn’t ugly but I don’t care for it when it’s short. I think if I had more length I would like my hair better. So I am going to save some money( those treatments are expensive!) and stick with growing out my natural hair.

I went back and looked at all of my old pictures with my natural hair and my hair looked pretty just short. I haven’t had long natural hair in years. I would also like to be able to do a twist out and a braid out again too. So I am just going to stick with my buns and grow this hair the way it naturally comes out of my head
