The one time I go to use the search function for the hair forum and it says down for maintenance. UGH now I have to look for the Dominican hair products thread.
try typing it into google with "LHCF" after it. I never use the search function, i always go through google. Like if i need about aubrey organics i type "aubrey organics lhcf"

I prefer using custards or gel cremes than regular Eco styler never thought I would say that but with the custards etc i can go straight from wearing my hair to detangling


Wth Eco when I try and use the conditioner to detangling it gets to gummy and I have to rinse before I start I can't be bothered to do that I'm getting lazier and lazier with my hair......

After rocking a blow out for 8 days I was so glad to shampoo my hair again. I LOVED my hair and it looked better with each passing day but my scalp wasn't having it.

That's a really good observation - it makes a lot of sense! Hmmm...

I mix my ecostyler with my leave in cream (equal parts). It works really well...I still get a firm hold and it doesn't feel like I have gel in my hair.

Never thought I'd be so excited to do my hair...waiting for my hair dryer to arrive late next week so I can start roller setting.

My hair feels somewhat sticky with product because for the past few days I've just been rinsing my hair, slapping on a leave-in, and braiding without detangling. I finally detangled today... I had a lot of shed hairs and there was residual product on my comb...but thankfully I didn't experience any breakage and my hair doesn't look as dirty as it feels. I really should have washed it but...I got excited seeing my hair full and free (I've been protective styling for so long!) so I have my hair set in 3 bantu knots instead :D

...slowly but surely recovering from my setback, back to almost daily cowashing.

...not used to my hair being so soft

Ten weeks post. I have a wedding I will be a bridesmaid in, in another 10 weeks. I can either relax now, then relax again in another 10 weeks, or try to stretch 20 weeks, I believe my longest stretch was 15 weeks.

Decisions..

Here I grow again!
Now that it's nice and warm out, back to baggied bunning. I'd get it braided up into a bun if I didn't think the fuzzies would drive me crazy on day 3. :ohwell:

Going out of town this weekend, only for three days but i'm obsessing about which hair products to pack. I have the urge to bring one moisturizing condish, one protein condish, one DC, @NJoy's oil, 2 different HH moisturizers and one sealant. Good thing we're not flying.

I went to a metal concert last night. My hair was already flatironed from last week :look: and all my hair products were packed. It was a bit frizzy from the rain but looked pretty good. Fast forward to a lot of hair flipping, hair pulling, and beer spilling, then rolling around in bed... I look like cousin it, with a bad hair day. Plus I have no shampoo or conditioner and I had to wash my hair with only shampoo because the stores are closed this early in the morning and the conditioner bottles at the gas station are tiny are retardedly expensive. I picked up some head and shoulders 2n1 to tie me over while I'm making the move. I'll have to pick up a bottle of Suave too. I was trying to have my hair last the rest of the week but that did not go as planned. :lol:

OT but i scraped my knee pretty badly. I hope it doesn't scar. It's right below a scar I have from the last time I scraped my knee. :nono:

I'm seriously considering skipping my last class of the semester in a couple hours to wash and DC my hair. I was going to do it when I got back but my scalp is really irritating me and I can't concentrate.

I finally ordered some more of the expensive moisturizer my hair likes so much. Two bottles in fact.

i always dream i am at a salon getting a touchup, with WL hair.

I've had hair dreams of all kinds.

Once I had this twa and I kept combing it and combing it and it ended up being WL hair. I was over the moon. and then i woke up.

and then i've had dreams where I had natural hair that was super huge and puffy and then relaxed it and sobbed for the rest of the dream.

finally, i've had dreams where i had super long hair and then i snipped it all away and had a mild panic attack.

dreams tell us so much about how we view ourselves.

Man I feel so weird buying some track hair. I was so blown away by the prices. Man seeing prices like 179.00!!! I was like that's more than my car insurance. I'm not about that life. Now I'm ready to relax my 8month post head.

Giving the DermOrganics line a try. Bought a massive size in the shampoo and masque (found them at marshalls), which was a pretty big investment for something I've never tried before lol. Used them both last night -- I really like :yep:

AlliCatI think I'm going to try Dermorganics. Hmm how much were they at Marshalls?

Im going to Ulta so I might just get the sample set and the masque. I need a really good masque, but I'm a little leery of cones so this seems great.

Amen to that! I'm trying to figure out now who will flat iron my hair for my birthday next month.

I dare Reniece to open up an appointment to me. I dare her! :lick:


The last time I allowed someone to flat iron my hair was when I had a sew in; the result was beautiful for the two seconds it lasted, but I had a few pieces that were burned straight from root to tip...no bueno !

I'd be cool if I knew someone that I trusted to wash, detangle and blow dry my hair without ripping through it or abusing my scalp.

Me too. The last time I saw an allegedly gentle hair dresser wash, condition and blow dry natural hair, I was cringing in my chair. she was yanking through that lady's hair so badly. I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to do a proper length check since I'm quite useless at blow drying and straightening my own hair :(.

I have a mop of a wig on my hair and want to snatch it off. Trouble is folks have already seen me with it on and I just don't feel right taking it off now. It was an old curly half-wig, that I'm sporting as a full wig. I cut bangs in the front and fluffed, but I don't think it looks good at all. I should have taken if off when I was having second thoughts. Even in the car, I was rethinking it, but I didn't like my hair underneath today. I should have just went with my hair. I'll be tossing this thing when I get off work.
