Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

I really wanted to redo my hair this evening for a meeting tomorrow morning but I was working a long day today. I just got back home at 9:30 pm. and I'm so tired.

Does anybody here do their hair typically in the morning just before going to work instead of the evening before?

Always. In warm weather I cowash while I'm in the shower and throw it in a bun. This winter I've been doing flat twists and dutch braids, they don't look good at all after being under a scarf all night, so I just redo those before work. It takes maybe 10 minutes, if even.

Do any of you ladies have a recommendation for a stylist in San Jose who works on natural hair? I’m looking for someone to do my demi-permanent color.

Hola Senoritas..

My September 21st length check (on dry dirty hair, not fully combed) AFTER I cut 1 1/2" that night. I wanted my back rolls to show on purpose so I know where I stand. Back rolls are excellent rulers. Just wanted to share. It's almost November 21st so I think I got some length back. 20181116_185412.jpg

NotLucky no mo' just blessed.
I literally (as of today) realized that maybe I should limit my comb usage by 90%. I was doing my two strand twist ponytails strictly by hand (only used the comb to separate some hair then just used my hands) and I lost virtually no hair until I got to the top and even up there I only lost like 5-10 strands. Now mind y’all I’ve been natural on and off since 2007 so...:look::lachen:

Also I have circle, zigzag, and just fluff hairs. Every time I return to being natural I learn something new.

I don't think I'll ever get to a point where I feel like I have enough or too much hair and cut it to maintain a certain length. Growing til the end of days.

I've also been thinking about my 2019 hair goals. I think we need a general hair goals/challenge thread. Do we have one? :scratchchin: My short attention span makes me forget to check-in after a while but if all my goals are in one thread that could help. Plus the last quarter of 2019 will be extremely busy for me.

Did you hear of Revé Essentials? They had scented stuff too. I think that’s how I started trying out APB, cause I missed them so much.

@ItsMeLilLucky Yes,I have used that,it was a big hit for a while..Hair & body butter was really nice,worked well as a sealant for me/used it to moisturized my skin too.. The pomade was good as well.."The birthday cake scent"smelled like real cake:cool:


Happy Hair Growing!
