So I know I have been MIA for a very long time but I am back and here to stay. So lets see where I left off last time.....I think my last post was a wash day post so nothing really special. I am still wearing wigs and hats everyday so that I can keep my hands out of my hair and give it a break. Where I live the winter has been pretty bad so I have been keeping my hair hidden from the cold air and snow. I still only wash my hair every two weeks. This method has been working for me because I have more time to do other things outside of my hair every weekend. If you guys are anything like me a wash day is an all day event lol!!! And since my hair is getting longer it requires large amounts of a product which mean I go through product faster and end up spending more money. I love my hair and all but I don't like spending all my money on hair......a girl has bills to pay lol!! Since I reduce my wash days from every weekend to every other weekend I am using less products.
I have been on my hair journey for about almost two years now so I have found most of my staple products. So it is not too hard to keep my hair soft and moisturized even though I am skipping two deep conditioning sessions a month.
I still go to the hair dresser every 12 to 16 weeks to get my relaxer. Yesterday was a relaxer day for me. She usually just relaxers and blow dries my hair straight and I wear it down for the rest of the weekend then I braid it up of the rest of the week. But the people at my job have been asking to see my real hair so I decided to flat iron my hair after I left the salon. I have not flat iron my own hair since July 2012 so its been a minute. I usually just let the hair dresser flat iron it or I just don't flat iron my hair at all after I get the relaxer. My ends did not look too bad so I just did a light dusting.
I have had my flat iron since 2007 and it is still holding up. I noticed a crack in it near the handle part but it is not a big problem to me. I use the HerStyler flat iron, they are the ones you see being sold in the mall at those little carters in the middle of the mall hallways.
So that's all I have to really say I did have a setback a couple of monthes ago but I will talk about that in the next post because I don't want to make this post too long. So here are some pictures I took on my iphone. Enjoy and don't laugh too much at my make up I am still learning and trying new things.
Happy hair growing and coming along and grow with me!!!!
