I woke up and my idea for my hair and what actually was is so far gone its not even funny. LoL but I did laugh at myself and then I co-washed and put in the KCCC because its the only thing that reduces my frizz and defines and shine my curls. I know I hate the way it makes my hair feel all sticky but it does what it says it will do. sooooo IDK. lol

I'm sorry it didnt work out for you. What about it didnt you like?

@Lynnieluve: just everything about it was wrong. or maybe i just didnt like how it looked. i think i needed some more hair on the top (like more length)

Welcome! I'm a newbie to Curlynikki and I just BC'd last Saturday

@Shauny: Thanks for the welcome and CONGRATS on your BC girl. Where are the pictures????

I have been noticing weird things in my hair. Like right in the middle on the top of my head and in the back of my head i have very smooth and kind of looser curls and then on the sides its super coily or kinky and tends to be more dry than the other parts what the heck is that about if anyone knows.

I don't know!! My hair has split personalities too! The sides and the back are the curliest and the easiest to comb through. Then the front section has like no curl but the ends are wavy. And the middle is curly too but it's really dry. Every section of my hair is completely different! lol I totally understand moriah ...

I'm sorry that I didn't answer your question about product build up. I've been busy this week and didn't get to post like I wanted.

You can tell if you have product build up when your hair feel weighed down. You know kinda heavy feeling...if that makes sense.

Advice on the KCCC....less with a TWA is best, and make sure you use the pomade. You have the right length to use it for a w'n'g. Just condition with the KnotToday. Make sure you hair is saturated with water and put a nice amount in your palm and rub it on your hair like you would do gel.

Then come back with your spray bottle and spray more water. It really would work best if you apply while you are in the shower. The key is water to help dilute the product.

I hope this makes sense...I'll find the YouTube video with the instructions and post here for you tonight.

You have the perfect length for the KCCC...

Also, MahoganyCurls only used conditioner and oil on her hair when she had your length..check out her thread and her YouTube videos.

I'll check back tonight...I promise!!

@KinkyNappyHappy, Thats okay girl i figured it was something like that anyways. And about the KCCC i figured out how to make it work for me too. I just kept trying again and again and like you said I did end up applying the product and then spraying it again. I hate that I had to go back on what I said about the product but I do love the results now that my hair is not sticky. Here are some pics from today.

I like your hair!!! I just BC'd about 12 days ago and I know what you mean about the different textures! my sides are really kinky looking while the middle and the front is nice and curly/wavey....

my mom has kccc and I think i might have to steal it from her and try it after seeing your results.

@p_nuttie43: yes girl my hair is so many freakin textures its not even funny. The KCCC at first was sticky on my hair and I said that I hated it but i figured out a way to make it work. The results were always great because it would really define my hair and eliminate frizz. I think you should give it a try. CONGRATS ON YOUR BC!!!...how are you liking it???

I LOVE your curls Moriah!!! And you are simply gorgeous

@bholmes87: well i would just have to say thanks so much! And i owe the nice frizz free curls to the KCCC.

this time since i figured out how to use the KCCC i think i can hold out till next thursday to co wash. this past week a couple things happened where i ended up co washing twice but im going the full week without it. i think i can i think i can i think i can.

Im loving my hair!!! it took me about a day or so to get used to it but I love it! its different and sooo managable now. Don't think i would change it for anything!

@p_nuttie43: I completely understand what you are saying. At first I had a false love for my TWA but it really grew on me and now I love it, some days more than others. but yes it is so much easier to manage I spend less time doing my hair and now i have more time to play around with make up. I'm glad you like it!

I have some bad news. It is week two of my new regimen. I co-washed on thursday. So I am two days into my week. My hair is feeling dry right now and i dont know why....this sucks. I can never get the hang of this.

Hello everyone! I missed you all from yesterday its been a busy few days for me. I got a job yesterday woo hoo! FINALLY! Also I have been doing pretty well with my new regimen. My goal now is to find a style that can last me a week that is business appropriate without me even having to touch it. hmmmm any suggestions?

First of all CONGRATULATIONS on getting a job!!!

Also I really think the wash n' go will be very appropriate. Either that or a twist out would look great!

Congratulations on new J O B ...

I agree with the wash-n-go.

Hello! I absolutely love your hair and congrats on gettin the job! The wng seems to never fail and if you get bored of it, you can always just smack a flower or headband on it. Ive been seeing that a lot and it looks great!

Thanks everyone! I guess the wash n go I wore to the interview will have to do for now until I get some more length.

aww thank you! your hair is amazing too i love the color and your avatar is beautiful! I love the headband idea but I dont ever find any cute headbands so i dont have any.

Thank you! and im sooo in the same boat with you on the headbands. Most beauty supply stores have plenty of them but i can never find one that i like AND does hurt my head I would use some of my old necklaces but since my hair is so short, you would see the hook and yaa doesnt sound too attractive. . . maybe after my hair grows out long enough to hide it. Anyway, if i find something ill let you know!

Hey missmoriah - I've been reading through your thread and want to say WELCOME to the challenge.

I think your hair is really cute - I love how glossy it looks! Congrats on the new gig and I look forward to reading your posts!

And don't worry about your hair having split personalities - mine does too. It's very coily in the back, wavier in the front, with a looser curl pattern. And I sleep on my left side, so that hair is shorter than the right-side. lol

Congrats on the new job!!

Congratulations on your new job!!!!! I think the w'n'g with the KCCC would be a nice style for work. Don't worry about co-washing so much, because you are trying to find what works for you. However, please D/C weekly so your hair doesn't dry out!!!

I really loved the pictures you took after the KCCC!!!!
