Weave Update and Mini Hair Haul

After washing my hair the first time I had realized that the female that braided my hair didn't technically braid up my entire head. I didn't think that would cause a problem until I started thinking "well I bought this weave as a protective style to protect my natural hair from any harm". So I stood away from the flat iron which was not hard to do. Until I realized that this hair tangles up so much and sheds so much I started getting nervous. What if my natural hair is getting tangled up with the weave and some of my natural hair falling out as well when I would detangle my hair. So much hair would just come out the comb and be all over my sink I couldn't really tell if it was the weave coming out or if it was my hair getting pulled out.

So being that I was getting nervous about it I decided that the weave needed to come out. (Already out would make a post very soon). I'm so upset that she braided my hair that way when I had told her at least a dozen times that I don't want any hair left out. "I don't want no hair out except the parts that would cover the tracks" and "I want the hair that's left out braided up". Well I have been missing my natural hair anyway so can't wait to get the weave out. I decided to go out and buy some new hair products for the day I remove the weave. Can't wait to try them out.

Target was having a buy one get another half off so I thought it was the perfect time to try these products 

At Bed Bath & Beyond I got both conditioners and the leave in for $2.99

  1. This is quite an experience for you. Having a weave in our hair supposed to make us more attractive, not to damage our hair. Good thing you took notice and immediately resolve it. Anyway it's been months, how's your hair now? This is a great reminder for all the readers to choose a trusted stylist before going to a treatment. Thanks for sharing. #Wilma_Parker @ TheWeaveScene.com

Wash Day (7/7)

It feels good to have a clean scalp especially since I haven't washed my hair in almost two weeks! Yeah I know slacker/gross! My  hair needed a good wash and some moisture back into it. Also I just came from the beach and even though I wasn't in the water the elements could of been harsh on my hair ex.sun.  I started off with clarifying my hair since I haven't washed my hair in awhile. Needed to get rid of product build up and plus its the beginning of the month. I used my suave clarifying shampoo, I would say I do prefer the ORS aloe shampoo but I have yet to buy a full size.  I proceeded to conditioning my hair because it was very much needed. I used my L'oreal Power Moisture conditioner and saturated my hair with the product so I can detangle my hair with my fingers instead of a comb. So easy to detangle my hair with this conditioner I love it.  Followed up with my deep conditioner which is the Bee Mine D/C. I didn't wear my heating cap or leave in on for hours.

Hair Length Check In

I can not believe how far my hair has come. My hair has been in a protective for half the year, which was a sew-in. I did not have a sew in for the summer I gave my hair a break. I am currently debating if I should get another sew in for the colder months that is coming but I am not sure. My hair feels fuller & thicker. I was even asked if I had a weave in lol. Here is my current length. Am I Mid-Back length ? This picture was taken in Oct/13  Here is my current length as of Oct/14

Umm, Hey ?!

I  have not written a post in over a few months now & I feel a little okay about it. I just was not in the mood to really write about hair. It just started to become repetitive & a little boring to me. Don't get me wrong I still plan on documenting my hair journey & I still enjoy everything hair related. It was just a moment for me that I was kind of over it. I have been enjoying my hair length & been using heat a little too much, but that's okay. I mean isn't that the point of reaching your goal length, to enjoy it in whatever way you want? Well I definitely did & now it's time to get back to my normal hair routine. I still have a long term goal I want to achieve. So let's see where I go from here. This is my small space on the internet & I don't plan on abandoning it any time soon.
