My Thoughts: I have been using this product as a styling aid when I first purchased it. I can say at first I wasn’t much of a fan of this product. It would leave my hair nicely defined but it left my hair feeling sticky. I drifted away from this product because of that but recently came across it. I decided to give it a try once again but this time trying a different way of applying it. I learn that a little goes along way and with that being said I didn’t have that sticky feeling anymore. I was being very heavy handed with this product and that’s a no no with this. As the product says “enhancing” it definitely does that to my curls. I also tend to use this as moisturizer for my hair and it does the job of moisturizing. This product tends to be a hit and miss with people but I think if you find away to correctly apply it it might just work for you. Not a staple yet but I am planning to purchase it again.

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.

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...

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.
