Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Aw man I feel so bad. I was venting in one of my Facebook groups about getting my foot in the door and went off on one of the stylist who I felt was insinuating that I didn't want to be humble and that's why I'm not where I want to be.

Y'all....




Y'all....

At first I didn't catch the comment. But when I did my first reaction was



I would have let it slide because otherwise it was sound advice. But she has said this several times before as well. My eyes turn red when people assume I am a certain way when they don't even know me or what I've been through. So I tried to correct her thinking in the nicest way I know how.

Yet I feel so guilty. How could I say to a senior decorated stylist she needed to check herself? It sounds silly but I feel so disrespectful because of that.
Don't feel bad. You did not disrespect her she disrespected you. You were just standing up for yourself. (She may even be jealous of your work and trying to kick you down a peg). Just stay strong, be respectful. and use sound judgement when speaking with her if you don't wanna feel guilty about what you say. There's nothing u did wrong. Don't be so hard on urself.

I'm easy going.

I lost 9lbs since September LOL pretty soon I'll fit these clothes again. (I litterally just put them on for this pic.)

I think I've reached HL. My hand is resting on my hip.

My hair has changed since I had the baby. I transitioned during pregnancy and wore braids throughout. That left my twa incredibly dry and the cuticle was rough. Ok.. little one just turned 8 months and within that time I've been washing and deep conditioning weekly. I realized that my post pregnant hair is indeed a tighter texture, more coarse, and drier. When I wash it it's more difficult to manage, I can't do my gel'd down slick backs or my hair in two side cornrows like before b/c my hair was softer and looser then. I've gone to two stylists and they both commented that my hair is dry. I've never heard that, like ever lol yet smh. I've been doing weekly twist outs and that's been serving me well.

I don't want to buy a bunch of more products. Just gonna deal with it for now I guess.

I'm pretty sure that I'll do a twist n'curl for my date on Sunday :scratchchin:. It's going to be weird wearing my hair up for first day hair, but everyone's told me that I look better with my hair up. A twist n'curl should give me a nice defined curly bang with a big curly high ponytail.
