JBCO Challenge

My Poor Editing Skills Lol, I'm Trying

Jamaican Black Castor Oil is probably one of many best known and used oils. I had wonder about this oil for quite some time now and decided to look into the benefits that I can receive other then what I have already heard about. I have came across this article on BeautifulNaps talking about the benefits of the oil. Here are the benefits that come with the use of this oil:

• Prevents dry scalp
• Promotes hair growth
• Prevents breakage
• Helps with alopecia
• Increases blood circulation in scalp
• Strengthens hair follicle
• Prevents dandruff and itchy scalp
• Thickens hair

I had heard so people talk about how their hair has grown from this oil and not only that but thicken the hair (Something I definitely need). So I decided to put myself to the challenge and use this oil for 3 months. At first I was looking for a group that was doing the challenge as well but they were all closed off or done. Until I seen a challenge on Hairlista called Round 2 Castor Oil Challenge. Now I can do it with a group of ladies. I'm pretty excited to start this challenge (Starts Today March 18) Ends June 18. My Plans with the oil are to use them as:

  • Hot oil treatment
  • Apply to scalp every other day
  • Possibly (but not guaranteed) in my deep conditioner

Here is my starting picture:

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...
