Priced some Carol's daughter products at Macy's today. Now all I need is to find some place a little more economical to purchase them, if possible. Gonna shop around. Good night!

Hello,

Having an ok hair day today. Found a site called curlynikki.com that is real interesting and full of info and also joined a site yesterday called meetup.com. There is a group there called nappiology full of already natural people or of course transitioning. I joined the one in the DFW area. It's beyond interesting. You should check it out!!!!

Greetings,

Haven't been here in two days. I know I'm slackin but I do apologize. Just one question if anybody besides me is reading this. Should I or should I not flat iron my new growth. I read somewhere that heat will mess up the wave pattern in your natural hair just like a relaxer will!!! Hmmmmm.....What to do?????

OK. Still didn't get theses doggone ends clipped!!! UGHHHHH! And it's raining. I need some serious prayer people. To my husband if you are reading this. I'm gonna do something with this head of mine soon. I promise!!!!

Hello,

Having somewhat of a "tress"ful day!! Go ahead and laugh. You know that's funny. I never got around to getting my hair trimmed up so I'm gonna do it today and see if it makes me feel any better about this transition. My hair has been slicked back in a ponytail for days and frankly I'M SICK OF IT!! Sooooo..... when I get these raggedy ends handled I think I may actually do something to it. Wish me luck, because I don't really know what that's gonna be. Happy Wednesday.

Hello,

Long day today. Borrowed something to cover this head today to keep from terrifying anybody. Pray for me. I'm still a virgin to this not relaxing thing and I sure would love to right now, BUT I'M NOT!!!!!!

Bye

I was missing in action yesterday but I'm back. Had a question from a friend about coconut milk and lime relaxer that caused me to do some research. This mixture supposedly relaxes natural hair but without the harsh effects of regular relaxers. The results were mixed of course. Some hair straightened and some didn't. It really depends of the kind of look you want also. Personally I couldn't use it because I have an acid allergy, so I would probably itch like crazy. And second, I want all of my hair natural however it decides to come out of my scalp. I just wanna wash, condition, moisturize and go. Can't wait!

Good day,

About to go and get these ends of mine clipped. Then I'm gonna wash and deep condition so that I can tame it a little. Can't wait until I'm a little farther along in this process. I've only got one wave on the sides which isn't alot of new growth, but if you could only see the middle. I guarantee you would gasp!!!! I'll be back later. Holla!

Good afternoon,

This stuff is acting crazier by the day. And when you throw a few strands of unruly grays in there, it could really create a problem. They just want to stand at attention and wave at everybody. I purchased a small container of Liv, which was suggested by a friend of mine who is a beautician. (THANKS KIMBRA!) It works well to tame these wild edges. Gonna pony-tail it and call it a day. Have a good one!

Hola chicas,

Not much happening on the hairfront. Still researching products and fighting these fly-aways. Again, feel free to make any product suggestions. Preferably some cheap ones! Peace

Ok! Today is not a good hair day! Didn't wrap it like I should have and it looks a hot mess. I know that this is a no-no, but I just didn't care last night for some strange reason. Maybe because I was up trying to create this blog!!!! I am gonna post some pics real soon, but my hair just looks like everybody elses right now, because it's hard to tell the difference between my relaxed and the new growth sometimes. I have some family members who I hope will allow me to post pics of them. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! Have a good day!

THE BEGINNING

This is the beginning of my natural journey. I haven't relaxed my hair in about 2 months. Any suggestions on products to make the journey easier?
