First Roller set

Today well on November 6 I started my first rollerset and for a first time I wasn’t expecting great results and was expecting to have some flaws. Which I did! I started the whole washing and all that process at around 10p.m and just finished everything at 3:00 a.m. Sorry I didn’t take any pictures I was way to tired. This is the process that  I did :

1. I cowash with Herbal Essence Long Term
2. Then deep condition with Aussie 3min mixed with evoo,evco and jojoba oil. Left that on for almost an hour
3. Rinsed, Applied Leave In’s (John Frieda Frizz Ease & CON Strengthen and Shine Spray) and proceed to rollerset. Here my experience :

When I had gotten out the shower from washing out the deep conditioner I wrapped my hair with the towel and then blot it till it was a bit damp. I applied my 2 leave in’s. Once I was done with that I don’t even know what happen! My hair got so frizzy and quickly got dry I don’t know where I went wrong (I believe it could have been the heater in my room). As I was rollersetting each piece of hair was getting even more frizzier and started to look a mess. I had some hair coming out from the rollers. I think I was putting to much hair on each one I’m not sure. But I am going to figure out next time how much hair to roll. Another problem I had experience was trying to roll the back, its definitely a difficult task trying to do that but I tried my best. I stood under the dry for an hour exactly and my hair was fully dry but came out frizzy on some parts. After removing all the rollers I began to flat iron which I think I’m going to incorporate when I rollerset. And my results were lovely really soft and moveable hair.

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.

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

Giving Weave A Try | Update

I have been thinking about changing my hair a lot recently from the color to deciding if I want to relax it. I just been bored with my hair and I have been trying to do as many natural styles but its either I can't do it, doesn't come out right or it doesn't look right on me. I don't want to manipulate my hair anymore. I'm done with experimenting with color on my own hair and I don't want to continue putting heat on my hair just to cause damage. Soooooo I been thinking about trying out weave? I been looking into it for awhile but now I'm doing my research on it. I don't see any harm in getting weaves what so ever. I can color it and put heat on it I can also pick different textures. Only thing that's holding me back is that awkward feeling of people knowing your actual length and then the next day your hair is down your back lol. But I can get over it I think. This would be a great protective style and I'm hoping it can last for at least 3 months...
