Tues co-wash

Was lazy but since I was feeling sorry for my thin as all heck hair, I thought it deserved to be washed. Did a Wen co-wash with a short Neutrogena Triple Moisture (NTM) for my in-shower condition. Didn't take very long...Fri I'll do a proper DC. Used NTM leave-in also.

Last night

This morning

Cute style & my dilema

Ok, I got all cute and did an updo this weekend after flat ironing the craptastic hair I had on Fri. I know I know. I flat ironed. Very very bad.



Here's my dilema...I think my hair needs some TLC but idk what. It has been feeling so thin. So I really don't want to relax it in a week and a half @ 8 weeks post and again at 8 weeks post (1 week before Jamaica trip) BUT if I don't relax it then and wait till later (like 10 weeks) I won't be able to relax again before my Jamaica trip. The alternative is just to stretch 16 weeks like I told myself I would. Idk if I can really do that. I don't know what happens to my hair after week 12. I can just see it being a huge mess and me breaking down, relaxing, then having 4 weeks post hair in Jamaica (can NOT happen). I have 1.5 weeks to make up my mind.

Scared.

This morning's MESS

I was desperate to have my hair washed for my weekend away but I was soooo tired last night I decided I'd get up early this morning and do it. Big mistake. I'll try to fix it but basically it didn't dry properly.

Trying a thing on my own

So this is my 5 weeks post style (last Saturday)

Playing catch up

So I haven't posted in awhile because I've been traveling.

Had my hair blown out last Thursday (surprise surprise! my hairdresser was at the salon 3 days before her due date)...I ran out of my garlic conditioner (!) aaaand my wave nouv so I've been making do with Mango Butter and DC with my Wen. Last Thurs my hairdresser used Dr. Bronner's for shampoo and Wen to DC.

Last night I did one my original washes from back at the beginning of my hair journey. That is, I washed, tied down with a scarf and went to bed. I have not done that in a looooooong time. I poo'd with Dr. Bronners, did a 2 min reconstructor, and a 3 min condition with Neutrogena Triple Moisture (NTM) daily conditioner - I bought as a stand in for my garlic cond which I couldn't find last night (bss -beauty supply store- near home was out of it). I'll have to get some at the bss near my job. Used NTM leave in to air dry.

Yucky gym hair that hasn't been washed since Thursday (!!!)


Still damp this morning so I had to cover it on my way in


-sorry about the huge pics but I loaded them at the wrong size and I'm just too lazy to change it

Wen wash

So I had to do a quickie Sat morning before I went out so I used only the Wen Cleansing Cond. I did a co wash with it then put some in my hair, pinned it up, showered, then washed it right out. Busy busy. No DC and no protein. Was just too too tired. Put HE LTR leave in...roller set, went under dryer for about 40 mins then wrapped while I got dressed.

I did try to blow my roots in the front but I don't think that worked. I gave up after doing like 2 parts...it is sooo hard and tiring. For some reason, I have curly roots and I just relaxed my hair so either my hair is supergrow (which I doubt) or it didn't get relaxed properly (more probable)...I don't know how I'll handle this stretch.
