I can't believe that my steamer or my hat head conditioning cap isn't here. I don't think they even put shipped yet. SO said he should of ordered straight off Amazon. Then on top of that I don't know what steamer he actually got. You know how you search for a certain name brand and it takes you to something similar and it's not the same one. I think that is what happen to him. So I'm waiting on a steamer I might end up sending back! And then waiting longer to get refunded smh

I was just at dinner with my bosses and my GM was like "Who does your hair?" I was all proud, because the answer was a simple "me". I should probably go to beauty school and really learn how to do everything. I can do the basics, but I want to learn how to mix hair colors and get fancy :lol:

Sitting under the dryer with a braid and curl set. I bed this mug to be near dry in 30 mins.

I used to love these on my longer hair, I'm curious about the look on my short hair (touching SL but mainly neck length)

So I just found out I have thyroid problems which has to do with my hormones. He asked was I having a heavy period or hair falling out and the answer was no. I think I get regular shedding unless my daily shedding is suppose to be like only ten hairs. I had a very light period and sometimes skip weeks. If someone has a natural remedy please help me. I have already health problems and don't want to take all these pills.

I did some research, it is perfectly treatable for most and some don't have to take the pill again ever whew, I hope I fit into that category. And i think because I take my vitamin gummies and take care of my hair overall, I think that drastically helped

I think I notice a returned trend in the natural hair community to curl pattern fever with the maximum hydration method.
For a while there it looked like we were more concerned with nice sets and big hair: twistouts, braidouts, flexi rods. Now it looks like we're back to the curl defining.

That's not the whole purpose of the MHM. The method primarily promotes moisture. One of the benefits of the method is that you can acheive better curl definition.

I follow this method primarily b/c my hair does not hold moisture and prior to this method I had issues with my hair being dry. I really dont see anything wrong with anyone wanting to see their curls without frizz.

I think curls are beautiful regardless of the curl pattern. I dont see this as an obsession, I see it as a revelation.

But to each their own.:look:

I haven't flat ironed my hair yet. I may do it late night. Gotta return some stuff, get some more conditioner and castor oil. I saw a wig that I gotta have.

I went to a sports medicine specialist to work on my back. I was cool with the knees and elbows in my back and the massage my neck. But then he started massaging my head and running his fingers from the bottom of my flat twist to the top :perplexed: It was supposed to be relaxing but all I could think of is Man, you are making my twist frizzy. :lol:

My back felt better but I had hair sticking up all kinds of ways.

Girl yes. They have the big one with a pump for 2.50. I like the almond conditioner ckisland

I tried that Shea Almond whatever one, and my hair was not pleased!!! :lol: My hair is so finicky about shea butter. I have my eye on the macadamia oil condish, and the Moroccan oil hair mask :yep:!! The macadamia one is supposed to have 10x the moisture :lick:

I think I'm going to make the switch from semi permanent to demi permanent. I just got my hair colored 2 weeks ago and the greys are already showing big time. :sad:

I can't believe it took me 6 hours just to cornrow my hair! I still have to crochet the hair in! Ugh!
that's why I decided to texlax. I finished braiding my hair, got started with the crocheting and felt it was some bs. I wasn't about that life anymore! Lol hope yours turns out good!

Why did I dream my hair was hip length stretched ? :lol: I was certainly disappointed when I woke up, despite the fact I don't want anything longer than waist length irl. Sent from my iPad using LHCF
