One month, two weeks with these twists. Take down is a bit hard but not too much. Let's see if we've grown any...

Yep...all of this...as a prep guide..."things stupid people say"...
Random thoughts from this week in hair:
- I hate these twists. Sorry, but I do. To help me get over the hate a little I've been lightly spritzing them and applying Aveda Humectant pomade every other day or so before I put them up in their normal bun. I have to keep reminding myself to be thankful they're at least long enough TO put up. And as much as I'm griping, I probably will stay on this 12-days-in, 2-days-out routine, which means I will be retwisting next weekend. I'm thinking of twisting damp hair, or twisting dry hair with a wet product, just to see what I get. I wouldn't mind them hanging loose if they laid right (did I really just say that??) and didn't reveal so much scalp...
- Is candy-apple red hair a thing these days? I keep seeing it walking around here and no, it's not the same woman seen multiple times...
- The other day I was out and about and saw a group of three teenage girls, two white and one black, and the black girl had a butt-long straight weave worn in what I guessed was supposed to be a casual ponytail. Needless to say I went through a number of different feels...I have seen teenagers here with natural hair (and even natural kinky hair like mine) but the vast majority seem to be weaved-up and it's like no big thing to them...
- Re Beyonce: First off, she didn't just cut her hair, white people...she took out her weave and then cut her hair. Secondly, and contrary to the verdict of the Celeberie jury, I think it's her real hair AND she looks great with it. Who knows...maybe she did it for the same reasons a lot of young mothers BC... *shrug*Hello, 2021. Glad to see you. Hope you're bringing us goodness and light this year!

I'm slowly getting to the point where it doesn't justify me getting box braids or weave for $100 when 4 weeks later I'm ready to take them out.
I need to find a style that flatters me when i'm tired of doing my hair because the time put into getting my hair done looks like its going to be wasted.
If I was of the notion to use heat to straighten my hair to put in twists, I'm sure the hang time would flatter me but I just dont have it in me to blow-dry my hair.
At times like this I really wish my hair would show its length. I look really immature at work with two low ponytails, sigh.

Twisted my hair with the KC Knot Today and Curling Custard last night. I actually like this more than I do twisting with the Curl Junkie Aloe Fix (though the Pattern Pusha will give me the same result). My hair is completely dry so I'm wondering how this twist out will look...

My mom cut her hair off (which I didn't even know she was thinking about?) and she looks so pretty!!!!!!
I'm all kinds of shocked. I don't know why, but I can't get over how pretty she looks!

I bought an argan oil hair mask. My hair looks and feels AWESOME.
I have finally crossed over to the dark side of product junkie-ism...
