Re: Thoughts of the Random and Nappy
I'm trying to stay away from KB's Tumblr, but I can't. So many gorgeous Black Women with low/no hair. I have 3-ish inches of hair, and I'm already tired of combing it .I could just put a scarf on it and go, but I miss the baldie and 'get up and go'. I miss how it looked and the shape of my head.

Re: Thoughts of the Random and Nappy
The only time I ever care about my hair is A) performances, and B) traveling. Performance coming up in two weeks, and I'm already at a loss. We're going to Vegas again in February, and yes, while it's still EARLY I really don't know what to do. I'm half tempted to cut my hair shorter. Mostly to get rid of the over processed ends, but to give me a reprieve so that styling and maintenance will be easier. Gonna be out there for nearly two weeks (dance intensives and performance included) and carrying full size containers on the plane only to potentially deal with them being stolen by some conniving a$$ TSA trollip is not an option...

Re: Thoughts of the Random and Nappy
I did the dusting tonight. It took an hour. I'm out of jbco and will probably order more online. Plans to deep condition tomorrow. Hair is somewhat happier with no knots after holding three different styles today.

Re: Thoughts of the Random and Nappy
Usually it's for one or both of the following reasons: 1) to show how much they use in their hair and 2) to demonstrate the consistency.
I still have some cream eyeshadow in blue and silver. Since I'm about to travel to a somewhat more conservative part of the country, I'm tempted, after reading your post, to stick some in just for the hell of it. That said, seeing as it's the day after Halloween, it'll probably be like "You still have stuff in your hair from the Halloween party..."

No time for experimenting = back to Shea Moisture CES and KCCC for the week. However, I've now done two co-washes with HE The Sleeker The Butter. It's all right...I don't think it's necessarily better than HH or Honey I'm Strong though.Hello, 2021. Glad to see you. Hope you're bringing us goodness and light this year!

Currently deep conditioning with ORS Olive Masque. I've just got my hair all piled on top of my head in a bun. No plastic bag.
I see that some "gurus" who reached waistlength are experimenting with new things, like cuts, color, and heat styling. They just needed a change, which is understandable. It's interesting how previously, while growing their hair out, they were anti this, and anti that.
I'm heading towards MBL myself (and hopefully WL) and I wonder: Will I do that with my hair? I find it highly unlikely. I just can't throw away all my progress like I did 3 years ago. Seems like I'd hold on to it for dear life, as hard as I'm working to achieve my goal.
I have to be anti heat with my hair. It's very fragile and will get heat damage in a heartbeat. That stance is not likely to change, especially since I can "straighten" my hair with threading. Color....like I said, I'm going to try eyeshadows and stuff. I guess if I did do anything, it might be a few brown highlights, but again, not likely.
I am particular about ingredients. At this time, I have "natural" and commercial products that I use. It's not practical for me to use all of one or the other. A variety works for me."Authenticity is true beauty."

Re: Thoughts of the Random and Nappy
I need to make some un-petroleum jelly but I want it more stiff than smooth. The usual recipe is 1:1 beeswax : oil(s) so maybe I'll do 2:1.
