2 Week Update .

Today makes it 2 weeks since I got my Lola Hair installed. What can I say about this hair.  So far I am not loving it but not hating it either. Since it is a body wave texture I would assume that it needs a lot of attention and moisture. My biggest issue with the hair is the ends. They are the driest part of the hair and no matter what I use on it nothing seems to help. I used what was recommended which was a Chi serum that did not work. I used Organix coconut serum still nothing. I then purchased the Organix Moroccan Argan Oil and it was still dry. I even spritz It's a 10 leave in. Nothing has yet to work. Since this is the second week I will be washing my hair and the extensions this weekend. Hopefully with a deep conditioner it will feel a lot better. Also the ends since they are slightly curled they do tangled up quite a lot, but that is expected with curly hair so I am not complaining.

As for my natural hair I have been using the same spritz that I used before which was the Curls Lavish Curls Moisturizing spritz. I am planning to purchase Oyin Handmade Juice Berries because the spritz on the Curls bottle is more of a straight spray not a mist like, if you get me. I have not used the Oyin spray leave-ins so I am hoping they have a mist. I also have a net over my braids so I need something that will spray easily. I have been itching a lot more then usual I am not sure why. But hopefully a wash will solve that.

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.

When I reach my goal I’m looking forward to being able to wear the many styles that I am unable to do now. Also proving to my family, my mom especially, that my hair is able to grow. But overall healthy hair. 6. What is your hair type? My hair type is maybe in the 3C’s category. 7. ...
