I just tried a CWC.. and I liked it! Cool

I had MAJOR shedding in the shower though Undecided

But that means growth... right? Huh

I've been eating SO much junk lately. So far today I have had a big breakfast (eggs, potatoes, sausage), pasta for lunch, a big mac & fries, a chocolate ice cream cone & now I'm ordering sushi. Grin

After midterms are over I'll get to the gym. Wink

Reply #80 - Mar 2^nd, 2008 at 7:58pm I'm not too fond of the point at the top, but overall I think thats a very pretty hair style. 3/4 inches is excellent growth for a month, congratulations! I guess midterms can really work up an appetite. I know a girl who eats like that regularly and she's thin as a rail, some people are so lucky!

I see that my ticker says 2 days until next trim....
that's not gonna happen Roll Eyes

I feel like my hair is in pretty good condition right now.. I'm going to try to hold out for a little longer.. It hasn't really been that long since my last trim. I had my last trim in early January.

Other than that, there's not much to report. I still have major shedding though!! Undecided

Haven't updated lately.. no reason why.. I've just been bored with it Undecided

Had to get back in the hair game by going to the drug-store and picking up some new products..
-Naked Naturals Citrus & Keratin Fortifying Shampoo.. Its kind of thick, but I liked it
-Suave Coconut Conditioner
-Scalp & Hair Heat Masque

I've been doing lots of different things in the shower lately. Firstly, I have been using the Suave Conditioner before (in addition to) my regular conditioner. I need the extra moisture! Grin

I've been trying to do more hot oil treatments & even did an olive oil treatment yesterday (woop! woop! Proud of myself for that one Wink

)

I think I'm in the middle of a resting stage Undecided

but still shedding like crazy!

And it has REAAALLLLY slowed down my motivation. Embarrassed

So I'm trying to get creative to maintain my focus!
Wish me luck! Cheesy

Just letting my hair air dry right now, here is what I did in the shower:
1) Olive Oil Treatment - after a few minutes in the steam of the hot shower I slathered conditioner over the oil.
2) Shampoo w/a 2-in-1 - deep wash.
3) Suave Tropical Coconut Conditioner - 1-2 min
4) Treseme Conditioner on the ends 1-2 min
5) Cold Rinse

I really felt the need to pamper my hair today, so we will see what happens....
Hopefully this was helpful to my hair!

Did another Olive Oil Treatment .. this time I let it sit for 30 minutes, then in the shower i slathered my ends with Suave Tropical Coconut Conditioner. I rinsed then used my Naked Naturals Fortifying shampoo, and followed with Suave Tropical Coconut Conditioner. Then I applied my scalp + hair masque for 2 minutes & I followed again with Suave.
I finger-combed my hair and then let it dry. I applied curl cream when my hair finally reached damp & now I am air drying.

Whew, what a pampering my hair got today! & it is looking amazing!!

oops I've been getting lazy with my hair journal Roll Eyes

But that hasn't stopped me from continuing to pamper & spoil my hair! Wink

My hair has been rewarding me for the increase in oilings, the decrease in washes, and the ELIMINATION of the blow-dryer!! Shocked

Today I also tried a Mayonnaise treatment, and so far, I like it!
I've been keeping up with my biotin supplements too, and for the first time I am really proud of my hair! & Not just because it's looking good, but because we're finally reaching a compromise...
the more time I spend pampering my hair = the less amount of time I need for styling!
It's exciting to finally be one of those people that can air-dry, throw my hair in a pony-tail & then let it down hour later to reveal nicely-styled waves

To be honest, I never thought I could get to that point!!

Great things happen when we just accept the hair that nature gave us and work with instead of against it. Hope you continue taking good care of your hair and that it rewards you with long, lucious waves.
