Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

[I Am So Blessed]

I've decided that I will trim only once per year. I'm a daily washer, now that it's hot I'm washing my hair twice per day using a very gentle shampoo bar, and I keep conditioner, pomade, gel and activator in my hair so my hair is always moisturized so I don't foresee me getting too many split ends. I'm just afraid of straightening my hair to do it because I don't want to chance messing up my curl pattern. I am going to see if wet setting my hair then combing it out will allow me to see the split ends....I think it will.

So...Im up at 3am. I'm grooving. And I found a goodazz stretcheting video for you.

I’m looking for a really liquidy leave-in conditioner. Oyin hair dew and Miele avocado hair milk are both thicker than what I want. Any suggestions?

Thanks! Favoriting this video. I won't be doing any rollersets until Fall so I will try both methods to see which is best for trimming.

Ive been using KCCC to slick down my buns and the results have only been so so. Today I used wetline extreme and it works so well and is way cheaper. I didn’t even have to tie it down with a scarf. Win-win.

Any suggestions on a spray protein? Wearing crochet braids, trying to incorporate a bit more protein in my braid spray.

I am using SCurl, mixed with some natural oils.

Me, me, me! I've been in crochet braids for the last 3 months. At least you have been taking care of your hair. I have been really wishy washy and I'm paying for it. Trying to get back on track.

I would suggest buying the hydrolyzed protein itself and adding it to your mix. I buy my keratin and wheat protein from MakingCosmestics.com. I add some to my conditioners.

I agree with so blessed there are lots of liquid proteins that you can try. I love colorful neutral protein filler which has a few different types of hydrolyzed proteins in it but if you don't feel like mixing I hear raves about aphogee's keratin and green tea leave in spray.

I used to use Fantasia IC leave in and that is straight liquid.

@ItsMeLilLucky @BronxJazzy Hey thanks for liking the only drawing I ever drew lol. I was drawing with my 7 year old niece using her colored pencils and this came on paper. I had to save it. I didn't know I could kinda draw.

Y'all should see how I styled her Barbies hair though.

Wow I didn't know that was your drawing. I just assumed you found it online. I can tell you were letting out something personal when you drew it. It's such an inspiring pic. Great job!!!!

Thank you! You're right. I was extremely (really really down) in the dumps actually.

Also I have angel images saved in my memory.

@FadingDelilah Did you blow dry the hair yet? It could work. I wish Marley hair could be softer!

I've done it before. It straightens easily so I'd keep the heat on low/med and an eye on your tension, unless you want it quite straight.

 

[ItsMeLilLucky]

I see my straight patch is back I always get fascinated by the fact that in a head full of curls, I literally have a straight patch of hair at my nape. I use to think that I still had relaxer on my hair, till I realized that I’ve always shaved my hair off *face palm* lmao

I don’t really remember how it was when my hair was longer, but I do remember that it was less curly than the rest of my hair.

So, firm curls with a straight patch. Never change Sybil, never change
