Hair Goals For 2012 (Late Post)

I made a decent list of my goals that I want to achieve for this year and I'm also doing monthly challeneges just to make my journey abit more interesting and I know a month isn't long enough to see results in anything but there would be times where I would extend it to two months.

My Goals:
1. Stick to my products! I'm always going out buying new products and instantly adding them into my hair. Doing this doesn't help me figure out what my hair needs or wants. Just leaves me a big mess on trying to figure out what went wrong or what was good.

2. Learn to love my curls I have a love - hate relationship with them. Its just so complicated dealing with my hair being that its so thick and curly, but I do love my curls.

3.Try to do more protective styles. To be honest I don't even understand what protective styling is or even how what styles you can use. All I know is putting in a weave and I'm on the fence of doing that (Might try it out)

4. I don't have a set goal on how long I want my hair to be I just want it to have a nice amount of length maybe around june. But I do want overall health within 3 months (If thats possible)

5. I do want to take a vitamin such as biotin

6. Keep my ends trimmed I am thinking about going to get them cut every 4-5 months (if my ends do need to but trim)

7. Also need to have PATIENCE. I lack in that department. I really need to have patience with my hair being that I get fed up rather quickly when my hair doesn't follow with what I want it to do lol.

8.Search for a great hair styler that can maintain my braidout and twist. Need a product that can hold my curls and maintain them through out the day.Also moisturize them, have defined curls and also be frizz fee.

MY CHALLENGE FOR FEBRUARY- Don't use NO HEAT! I want to embrace my curls. Find styles for them and learn how to manage second day hair.

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. 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...

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. ...
