Made an appointment to get my hair straightened. Hair hasn't seen a flat iron since January of last year. Who would've thought I'd go a year with no flat iron

I think that I'm going to wash my hair and do a good protein treatment... but I don't feel like doing the 2 step... and I don't want to buy anything... but I night go out and get my tried and true 2 minute reconstruction...
I dunno... maybe I'll get my hair braided tomorrow!

I haven't exactly decided. I have a bunch of oils and raw honey and some ayurveda stuff so I'm gonna do some experiments. I gotta get through a few more DCs I have first though.

PS:BSL 2016
Over the past 2 weeks I have been pre conditioning my hair with a olive oil and honey mix on dry hair. Let it sit for about an hour or 2. I cowash it out with a V05 conditioner (I have tons of them- yes I am a conditioner hoarder).
When I say my hair is AMAZING! That is an understatement! My hair has never been this soft or had this slip.

Stop letting stylists tell you what to do with your hair. They can give tips but ultimately you know your hair and what it needs better than anybody. Unless it looks tragically uneven I don't believe in frequent cutting if I'm on a hair growth journey.
I've always had a feeling my hair grew faster than what I was seeing. I didn't realize it until I stopped going to a salon and wore it in it's natural state. Like I thought, going to the salon my hair would be the same length for almost a freaking year. Natural state and taking care of it on my own I actually saw a difference. I knew I didn't have any scalp condition stunting growth so it was them cutting it too often.
For reference my comparison pics are in this thread

Ain't no more stylist trims. Get some scissors and a mirror and do it yourself.

Has anyone tried her line?

Thanks,

I tried the DC and the leave in. They weren't bad but they were not enough to become a staple for me so I moved on.

shawnyblazes, I've tried her butter and conditioners. Like flyygirlll2 said they were just okay but not enough for me to repurchase, or stalk a computer at a certain time to get products.
Plus her last video rant turned me off completely.

I can't believe my hair is responding so well without using a "leave in" conditioner and just a moisturizing spray (mainly oil and water mix).
I really think leave ins are marketed for money making purposes but so are the majority of these hair care lines. To me there really is no difference between that and a regular conditioner.

I'm in the heat challenge, but I'm not going to use any heat until I get a new flat iron. I may break down and buy one next week. I wish I had a coupon! I want a babyliss pro 1 inch. I did want that FHI runway, but I don't know.

shortdub78 Try to catch a sale on www.Folica.com. They have 20% off (sometimes more during holidays) sales often. Also, try to catch a 20% off sale at Ulta. Both of these retailers carry that flat iron.

ok! I will pay attention to the ulta emails! I have dropped enough coins on the flat irons I have to not give me what I'm looking for? Are you familiar with this brand? Is it really good? I've watched videos and read reviews, but I wish someone could really break it down for me? How does their hair feel, how many passes, does it snag, how does it handle highly textured hair? Does it smoke? Does it leave a scent on your hair? How does your hair feel a day or two afterwards?

Hey ladies I need your advice. I want to lighten my hair, but I moved to the sticks and do not have a BSS in my town. So I was thinking of trying box dye (I usually go the developer route) for the first time. I am torn between the Dark and Lovely which I read was drying, but effective or Creme of Nature Exoctic shine, which is gentle, but sometimes does not lift effectively. Which do yiu suggest for my currently healthy, virgin natural hair? I wish to lift to a dark blond-ish, light brown color TIA
