Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[LushLox]

I’m claiming WL by the Fall, or end of 2018..

You’re not playing I like it!

I used an Eco gel this week and... Holy Flippin' Volume, Batman! Daaaang, I got a lot of hair. My side part was a 3-inch valley, LOL. I should have taken pics. Too bad I got those nasty white balls again.

Still no urge to puff my hair for convenience. Usually, I am living in puffs at this length. Now, if I could just get a trimming schedule down (or rather trim at all), I'd be set.

There’s always something to buy isn’t there? Well it feels like it to me.

Shortdub78 has reminded me that need to replace my shower filter, I need a clarifier and I need some more supplements. I guess I should buy supplements in bulk but I’m conscious that I won’t like them.

I’m sick of buying stuff at this point.

I wanna start wash day but I must get these leaves up. The gigantic tree in front of my house decided to dump 90 million leaves on my yard at once. Thank God for this mulching leaf vacuum cuz other than that, they'd be sitting there til some kid trying to make some money knocked on the door

Almost two weeks since wash day. Idk what I’m going to do. I need a quick WNG. Quick.

My hair cannot get enough protein! It loves it and needs it.

Prayers lifted. Mama Sharpened don't play.

I hate when I forget about a coupon that's sitting right in my purse. I just found a $3.50 off $10 sally's coupon in my wallet, it expired 2 days ago.

Of course now that I have the indigo in my hair, I'm sleepy and want to take a nap. But if I put a plastic cap on the indigo will just start running and I will wake up swimming in a sea of indigo.

I was avoiding coffee today but going to have to give in and make some.

 

[Evolving78]

I flat ironed my hair and feel underwhelmed..

This is 7 days of shed hair from wash day to wash day. On day 1, wash day, my hair had been in a protective style for 7 days. My first opportunity to comb it was after I'd rinsed out the DC and was preparing for a rollerset. That is the clump of hair you see on the right side of the Ziploc bag.

Monday through Wednesday I only combed my hair in the morning and finger combed at night. Thursday and Friday I combed morning and again at night because my rollerset was dying on me and I had to switch it up. Anyhoo, this should be 700 hairs. Looks like twice that .

I'm doing a shampoo, ACV rinse, protein treatment, overnight DC, guava tea rinse, leave in treatment and rollerset so we'll see if I shed less this week.

That is not a lot of hair. Not a lot at all.. that looks like my hair from just today! Lol

 

[Bad&Bougee]

Oh, I forgot. The longest part of my hair is a little over 13". The shortest is 6" - rocking an asymmetrical bob at the moment. Thought it may be important to add lengths so that you can understand what you are looking at in the bag.

You might faint if you saw my accumulated-after-7-days ziploc baggie of shed hair.

That moment when you keep wondering how you’re touching the roof of the car with your hair and realize your buns have really gotten juicy lol

 

[Saludable84]

The more I think about doing my hair, the more energy I lose.

 

[Rocky91]

I've been going back lately and reading old posts of mine and now I'm inspired to take better care of my hair. I took really great care of it in college!
So I went back to a method that I used to do regularly, applying DCs with an applicator brush really carefully and sitting under the dryer for more penetration.

These companies offering anything less than 30% for Black Friday can go crawl in a hole and try again next year UNLESS there is free shipping involved. And no, not after a certain amount. Black Friday comes once a year, anything less is inexcusable.

I see that I'm in good company with you, @krissyhair, @shortdub78 and a couple others so I won't worry so much anymore. It has been an interesting experience though since I've switched from daily to weekly shed hair collecting. Weekly provides far more useful information.

@AgeinATL
I think you asked me for a review of the SSI Papaya Super Hydrate Hair Mask???

Slip: So on this one , honestly I forgot to comb through my hair after I applied this on top of the Papaya Ultra Nourish Conditioner I will say my fingers slid right through my hair during and after rinse out so I'm going to call it slippy.

Smell: Sweet and fruity. Not bad or nauseating.

Softness: Hair is soft. Nothing to write home about but it's good.

Moisture: I'm torn. I used this after my cassia treatment because it's protein free and I needed to check it out before BF. My hair is not as moisturized as it could be but I can't discern if it may be the circumstances I used it under. I'm planning to give it one more chance on a non-protein wash day.

Current verdict: Possible repurchase but final decision on hold for now pending another use.

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

@rileypak I agree. The slip is great. Upon rinsing, excellent. Moisture and softness afterwards? Meh...I wasn't confident enough in it to use it after my last protein treatment (I stuck with JessiCurl DC because it has been the most consistent as far as moisture retention) but I am still not sure about it.

@rileypak @NaturallyATLPCH ive always had misses with SSI conditioners so thanks for the heads up.
