Starting My Journey . .



I decided to get on a hair journey because I was tired of going to the salon to get my hair done. Also because I started to realize how damaged my hair really is. I was getting tired of the constant breakage that I was getting and was wondering why my hair doesn’t grow pass my bra strap. I didn’t treat my hair the best. I flat ironed my hair DAILY, I used to color my hair twice in just one week, I didn’t wash my hair for long period of times. I basically neglected my hair. One day I so happen to come across a site called Hairlista.com and ever since then I been more on top of taken better care of my hair. Today 07/11/11 marks the day that I officially start my journey. I went to a salon today to get all my split ends cut so that I can start fresh, plus my flat ironed had burned out on me so I know I’m not going to be using heat for the rest of the summer which is a great thing :). I think that my flat iron burning out was a sign for me to start my journey already and be more serious about my hair. Won’t be getting a new flat iron until the fall. But other then that, I created this blog so that I can keep track of the progress my hair makes. Oh and if your wondering as of now my hair is natural and colored treated. My hair type is probably a 3b or 3c unsure. But I’m not staying natural for long, just for the summer. Planning to relax when the fall comes. Any who hope you enjoy my blog and follow me on my journey to healthy hair.

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. I followed up with Herbal Essence Totally Twisted conditioner to help detangle my hair. Like I said before, If I did not, this conditioner smells amazing! 3. 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...

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.
