I think someone used my trimming shears without checking with me first. I've only used them about 5 times and they kept catching on my hair! I better not have any extra damage from using those things
Should I do something with my hair before the party or just wing it? With this rain and cold I'm not really in the mood to do anything new. Decision, decisions...

I love my yarn twists!
In 2013, I plan to:
-Continue the Crown and Glory Technique & end the year at bsl (ambitious I know)
-Purchase all sorts of bright, pretty scarves to wear
-Try a few new products
-Attend a natural hair event
-Hone my braiding skills
-Stay on NP
e.t.c.
Those are just the HAIR goals that I have.Last edited by CoilyHairedBeauty; 12-31-2012 at 11:12 PM.

I had a plan today. I was going to have a great hair day to end the year. I even wore a pre-poo to bed and the next day!! Tonight was the worst hair sessions I've had in a long time . I had to re-rinse 3 times and re-wash . Only to be too worn out to do the small twists I had planned. I don't even know why I bothered with this wng. Seriously. Tomorrow's going to be another wash day .

I'm glad I got rid of those damaged ends, but I'm mad my go to protective styles aren't possible anymore. I want to put my hair in flat twists for the rest of the week dangit!

Well, THAT (the WNG experiment) didn't work. More accurately, I don't have the patience to let it work...I haven't worn them consistently since summer and I know it takes a few washes to get mine to start looking right.
That said, as has always been the case, my natural hair really responds well to water. And since I'm still on the fence about protective styling, I'm wondering how I can water it more often. Maybe what I'm looking for is some variation on Naptural85's winter WNG method?Hello, 2021. Glad to see you. Hope you're bringing us goodness and light this year!

Hmm, heat damage. First time ever I allowed any to really touch my hair in 6 years. Small portion in the front for a sew in leave out. After the games this weekend Im taking this mess down and I dont care that it was only a few days ago that I had it done. I'll take the hair and make a u part wig out of it. No sense crying over burnt hair. I dont forsee me ever getting a sew in again. Never been big on weaves anyway. To be honest Im not really upset. I mean im not thrilled but Im not crying either . If anything its sparked deep thought into what its I really want to do with me hair and what is truly my short and long term goals.
Prayerfullu the rest of my hair is fine when I take it down. My hair health is more important than foolishly hanging on to style and possibly doing further damage. Hells no.
I mean sure I love to have a big obnioxious fro that turns heads. Ive been there and it was fun. Sure I loved to have my big puff back. At the beginning and end of the day I have to figure out what is most conducive to my lifestyle, have to be realistic with myself, consider cost etc.
Im actually slightly happy about this occurrence and the revelations im having because of it.....i'll be 100% thrilled once I take this mess down and make sure the naps are still nappy and intact!
