2 Week Update .

Today makes it 2 weeks since I got my Lola Hair installed. What can I say about this hair.  So far I am not loving it but not hating it either. Since it is a body wave texture I would assume that it needs a lot of attention and moisture. My biggest issue with the hair is the ends. They are the driest part of the hair and no matter what I use on it nothing seems to help. I used what was recommended which was a Chi serum that did not work. I used Organix coconut serum still nothing. I then purchased the Organix Moroccan Argan Oil and it was still dry. I even spritz It's a 10 leave in. Nothing has yet to work. Since this is the second week I will be washing my hair and the extensions this weekend. Hopefully with a deep conditioner it will feel a lot better. Also the ends since they are slightly curled they do tangled up quite a lot, but that is expected with curly hair so I am not complaining.

As for my natural hair I have been using the same spritz that I used before which was the Curls Lavish Curls Moisturizing spritz. I am planning to purchase Oyin Handmade Juice Berries because the spritz on the Curls bottle is more of a straight spray not a mist like, if you get me. I have not used the Oyin spray leave-ins so I am hoping they have a mist. I also have a net over my braids so I need something that will spray easily. I have been itching a lot more then usual I am not sure why. But hopefully a wash will solve that.

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

Wash Day

Today wash day I was suppose to do a protein treatment but I had completely forgot and just went on with my regular routine. Next week I really don't know if I'm going to incorporate protein because I'm planning to either make a visit to the salon (maybe) but if I do my own roller set at home I may do a protein treatment. Thanksgiving next week I plan to use heat for the occasion. Other then next week plans today was day was successful . 1. I washed my hair in four separate sections and used my  Shea Moisture Shampoo . I have yet to use a clarifying shampoo which is needed so I just used this in each section and wash thoroughly. 2.

Then followed up with my It's a 10 deep conditioner using heat. This time around it was in my hair for about an hour and half possibly. I had to finish writing a paper and then ate...

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. ...
