Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

My twist outs come out way better than my braid out. My braid outs looks slightly frizzy and just crinkled. My twist outs have a curl and come out much better
 
I wish I liked how buns look on me, since it's my main protective style for 4-5 days out of the week. No matter the style of the bun I always feel so plain.

Lilmama1011 I totally agre because mine do too. Today I undo my 2 twists I did on 60% air dried hair with no product after doing my first ever Rosemary tea rinse. See pic below. I think it came out nice considering they've always failed

Aug 23 no product twist out on roseM tea rinse.jpg
 
Does your hair feel stronger when it dries after doing a tea rinse, maybe its just my imagination. If so what teas are you rinsing with?

It makes my hair extremely dry too along with feeling hard and crunchy.
 
But you're so pretty! You should never feel plain.

Victoria44, I'm with Dayjoy on this one.

PureSilver, black tea and coffee are too strong for my hair. It made my hair feel beyond strong, much like you're explaining. I use gentler teas - marshmallow root, burdock root and slippery elm are great ones to try. They are far more moisturizing and provides softening & slip benefits.
 
divachyk, thank you. Glad to know that I was not going crazy. I did my first rosemary tea rinse after my wash and DC yesterday and my oh my, taking down my air dried twistout today, it was like the Sahara. It looked a little shiny more than usual because my hair always looks dull.

You're definitely not going crazy PureSilver. I totally know what you're experiencing. I hate that feeling.
 
I really can't wait to relax to really see how my ends are . I hope that the reason my ends look so iffy is because I have differences in length of new growth all over. Because I swear certain parts especially when I twist my ends look really thin especially my two front sections. I can't afford to cut anything off. Even apl isn't long enough. I still don't think I can do a bun
 
That cantu curl activator cream is the bomb. It's so slippery and I can take big sections at a time and smooth it down quickly so I can detangle properly. I'm forever buying this. I never had a leave in that had this much slip

The one in the bottle? I have the coconut curl cream in the jar. I'm gonna try it out on wash day.
 
I can't find Eco styler pink gel on my side of town. I just want a small jar to try out. The search continues............... I bet I will find it on the south side of town.
 
This new Eco styler... Not sure how I feel about it. It doesn't give much hold, but my hair is still very soft with no crunch whatsoever.

Has anyone else tried it? It's orange and blue (the container).
 
Pre-Pooed for the first time ever with oil. Used avocado overnight and washed/rinsed this AM. Co-washed with Ouidad and styled as usual.

Ok i get it now :look:
