Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[Anaisin]

I believe I just unintentionally learned how to get a good twist out.

After washing, SM LP leave in + Qhemet AOHC + Wetline extreme gel. I was being extra and instead of braiding 4 sections, I made twists in one section and used the gel. Took them out this morning and the twists were so soft, shiny & defined. I need to try it one day

Can you use Ultra Sheen Duo Tex?
It's only $5 and you can get it on the ground. It doesn't have any fatty alcohols in it. It does have parabens though. I found this for you http://greenbeautyproducts.com/real-protein-treatment/ it's straight wheat protein.

I looked at Duo Tex years ago, too strong for my hair. I have cheched out the one at Green Beauty but passed on it because I wanted something with silk amino acids and DS2 is deathly allergic to wheat (he is 13 but still nosy like a toddler).

Thank you for helping me out.

I went into the local bss last night. It was so many wigs it was overwhelming. I walked out in a daze. I have to figure something out.

I know exactly how you feel. I have to go with my niece cause she is pro at helping me with wig selections.

PostImage keeps changing the URL of my pics and is on the verge of collapse. I need another place to host pics, Photobucket?

I have fermented rice water sitting in the frig for me to test tomorrow.

I had ordered a product, believing it was straight protein, plant extracts, and oil. ¡BUZZ! Cetearyl alcohol was the second ingredient. Uncle, I give up, white flag waving... I will have to make my own. Lotioncrafters, please give me discounts...

When they do, let me know. Soapgoods is good to, but it's not the prices.... it's the shipping.

Are you allergic to palm oil?

Will do.

I actually have samples sizes of both palm kernal and fruit oil to test. That will be done this morning after my shower. I keep forgetting I have them for some reason, bought earlier this year to test.

Thanks for the reminder!

@Sharpened

That's exactly why I started mixing my own products. I wanted what I knew would work without of that extra stuff.
GL to you, sis!

I know what you mean which is why I stay out.
I'm planning to grab one from my wish list off Sam's Beauty next month and hope I like it. It's all I can muster.

There are oftentimes 'simple solutions' for very 'simple problems' - they are not that hard to figure out.

I want to buy a silk/satin cap but the shipping to Canada is UGH. I really hope there are good BF sales. Carts ready and waiting.

I has question: how does one know if a gel is a hit or miss?

I has question: how does one know if a gel is a hit or miss?

For whole head application, Im looking at flaking, agreement with products used prior to application, second day hair, and how it feels (dry versus moisturized).

For edges, Im looking for flaking and build-up over the course of 5 days.

Flaking is an automatic miss. Which is why I don't use Eco.Styler.

I got my silk amino acid powder from ebay and it worked well for me. Maybe just order samples sizes of different proteins from a few places and see which ones work the best/are the most reasonable.

Maybe its time I finally invested in a Pibbs.

Just learned that if I need to get a few kinks out of my wig and can't find a flat iron, the regular iron set to 5 will work. I gotta wake up early one of these days to get my curly wigs together. I'm tired of straight hair.

Shescentit Avocado conditioner as a morning cowash is like perfume for my hair. That conditioner has soooo much slip. I hope they end up in stores one of these days.

I need to return back to doing my hair midweek so I can enjoy my entire weekend. Weekends should not be spent under a hooded dryer.

I love washngos, its just the tangling after awhile. If my lifestyle allowed me daily washes, I'd be good.

As the lady on tv said, " ain nobody got time fah dat "
