2015 APL/BSL Challenge

You're very welcome.

*sneaks in hair news*
I don't think my hair is doing too much because it's still making up from how much I cut it when I cut the color off. I think it may have just grown back to where it was before the color. Hopefully, at least a little past that.

Arm pit length is still a dream. I may get it next year :)
You will make it hun in your own time... health over length and the length will sure to follow.

In an attempt to keep my ends in check im trying to eliminate as much heat as possible decieded to cowash today air dry to 80% and blow dry on cold im loving how thick my hair is looking...i love how it looks compared to my kinky straight wigs (inspiration). Textlaxed hair to my shoulders the rest is bone straight. Still working on gettingr rid of these ends. Excuse the ratchet tag lol

Thanks so much!! I did gain moisture this year. I didn't heat at all (besides two small pieces that I pressed to see what was going on). I have lots of healthy looking curls. I haven't seen so many curls on my head. It's usually carpet lol.

I bought some huge macadamia oil brand stuff because I found it half price at Marshalls. I tried the deep conditioner pack (sold at JCPenney's) and LOVED it!!! I actually didn't need to use a lot either!!! I kind of went crazy today. I got two of the large size deep conditioners. The ones that are normally 55 dollars! I got them for 26.99 each. :D... I got the huge shampoo, the moisturizing rinse, and a little spray oil. I wanted to use the whole line obviously lol. It took me forever to find a staple deep conditioner

You did get a steal! Macadamia products are so good but pricey... I'm jelly lol
 
I so want to braid my hair down lol but I told hubby I'd wear my hair out for a while plus it's so freaking hot here in Texas. We've been getting some cool mornings the past few days but back to the heat in the afternoon lol. Its not as hot but still I hate the heat man. I dont like the cold either lol soooo yeah. Anyway today's hair out :sad: :ot:did anyone do any Christmas shopping yet?!? I dread shopping for five kids lol especially my tweens bc I have no clue what to get them. I'll ask and they just shrug and say I don't know :ohwell:

Very pretty!

I take 'I don't know' as code for cash or please mom don't buy me anymore sweaters that only you think is cute. :lachen:I give my boys cash, gift cards and video games. Keeps me out of trouble with them. They have to it write down too. I don't want any crap. They better spell the correctly too. I'm not interpreting misspelled words.

Well when I get them clothes they go with me and try on and pick their own clothes for Christmas so that's not an issue but these crazy kids won't tell me what they want lol. You may be right cash might be the way to go I guess. Thanks!

I can't get my boys to shop. They will go on their own though. Good luck! I miss seeing a lot of packages under the tree but I do love the ease. I just make sure to fill up their stockings with the small things they like. Once they get to the money, I see a where's the food expression on their faces.
 
So my 2 year son locked himself in the guest bathroom and got into my stash. He emptied out a whole jar of Kerastase Chroma Riche Mask ($60). I am pretty bummed about it, but lately my hair seems to like the new Therapiste mask better. I'm not sure if I will repurchase the Chroma Riche.

I decided to keep my high end products in my own bathroom from now on.

Have any of your little ones ever got into your hair products?

Not me. Baby powder is the only thing both my sons got into. I left it on my bed and they were quick.
I'm sorry your baby did that. Curiosity got the better of him. I'm glad that's all that happened. Did he put some in his hair?
 
My DD is 21 and away at college. I like to give her presents as I buy them but only the stuff she asks for. She doesnt ask for much. Just ordered her a leather jacket and had it shipped to her apartment. Some new jeans from NY & Co for me (can't beat a $20 sale), new workout shoes for me, stocked up on henna and indigo and raw butters for whipping to feed my mixtress fetish

Hair is doing great. I straightened and dusted yesterday and hair seems sooo much thicker. Will do LC tomorrow for the challenge. Sleeping overnight with henna amd will do indigo and DC tomorrow.
 
Pretty sure I'll be there by December

Woop woop!!! You definitely will! !! How exciting! I'm happy for your hair lol.. one day my own will look like that.. one day. I'm inspired

Dudes. My curls are as big as a pencil... lead... the mechanical size lol. They are soooo super tiny. Perfect curls, but oh so tiny. My ultimate goal is shoulder length unstretched. Then I'll take a kadrillion photos because I never see any photos of other girls with my curl. It's not super kinky, but it's not a big curl like 4a...except the back. Its confused. I think my confused hair curl twins need to unite
