I look forward to taking care of myself more in 2008. To really, truly make an effort--in all areas. This includes haircare. Once and for all, I'd like to decide what to do. And so, whether it's coloring--I've had the materials for weeks...Or a new style--a friend said she'd help me redo my dreads...I figure I'm old enough to have some sort of comfortable rhythm...

Let's see,
I am going to start taking better care of my hair. I invested in some new products (I was never a product girl) So I got a new shampoo and conditioner. A leave - in, and some miss jessie's baby buttercreme (I really like it).

My resolutions this year are to:
1) Retain some length. Every time I get around 6 months of growth I get "scared" or something and grab the scissors. I resolve to let it flow and let it grow (but keep up with the trim jobs).
2) Use more products. I have a real minimalist approach to keeping my hair managable. I'm relying on JAM hair gel, Nexxus Humectress and Sta Sof Fro to keep me going, when I should be a little more adventerous when it comes to my hair. ^_^ I found out my hair loves Wild Growth Oil! Who knows what else it likes, until I try it?
3) Do the protective thang. As much fun as it is to pick and play in my fro, I want to find some good styles to keep my hair safe and warm this winter. I resolve to find some cool styles that last at least 2 weeks and will help me trudge through the dreary winter months in style
4) Most importantly, I want to have the healthiest hair I've had in my life. That means no heat, no products with alcohol or sodium laurel sulfate (even though my clarifying shampoo has both of these things :unsure: as does my dandruff shampoo). I'd like to learn how to become a kitchen beautician and start making my own hair care products. ^_^"Keep on growin..." Derek & The Dominoes

Hair Resolution for 2008.....Well my first and biggest was to find a place online with information about Natural Hair. And so far this seems like a great place to get lots of info. Decided to create a login this morning. I haven't had a chemical fire cream in a year. And yet have not have a significant breakage (so far). My resolution would be to continue growing my hair and learning to work with instead of against the texture.

Napp-a-lution for 2008:
1) Get regular trims. (maybe 3-4 times each year).
2) Use the same products. I already know what works for my hair so, I would like to continue to use those and not be tempted to try more.
3) Learn how to style my hair. I want to add some variation. Maybe learn cornrows, revisit flat twists, and learn how to do gorgeous 2 strand twists. (If anyone has any tutorials, please let me know)
4) Continue to be happliy nappy.~ Last chemical fire cream: October 2006 ~~ Big Chop: July 3, 2007 ~~ 3 years NAPPY and oh so HAPPY ~
I finally have a Fotki! http://public.fotki.com/SChiLady/
