I have to be better about this!


I am learning so much about my hair and have and so many good days and and bad days that I really should be doing a much better job of keeping track of what I am doing so I can go back and look at.


The picture of kids and I is a tad dated but it is was definitely a HORRIBLE hair day for me! I thought I would do a nice twist out to have a similar look to my month three look and I used the kids organics pomade that worked so well with my relaxed hair. I guess I forgot I was no longer a "relaxed" lady. I was so upset because it was Jake's return to school and I was looking like a chicken head in my opinion. I played with and played with it and luckily I had a band and used it to try to camoflauge my horrible mistake. So, now, I have learned to NEVER try something new when I am going to do something special.


My hair has grown some more and this past week I rocked a pretty nice twist-out which I did not take a picture of, which I know is a no no. My next trial is to wear twist two weeks in a row and then wear the twist out a few days and wash, condition and retwist. I am going to be doing this as a protective style for the fall and winter if I like it. I know it will take me a long time to get it done when I do the twists because I will have to do them small but I think it will be worth it. I also want to try doing a blow out to see how big my fro is without the shrinkage.


Anyhoo, I will do much better keeping up with my journey. I am attaching a the look I am trying to rock right now.
