Hey CherryE....

You hair is looking so good!!! The dogs are too cute. The one in the last picture is too funny. I guess he/she really didn't want to take a picture huh? LOL

Anyway....My hair was feeling real firm as you call it. I contribute that to the henna I did, but I did an overnight DC with Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Conditioner. I have this thing about conditioners and I have been looking for a conditioner that it thick. This stuff is so thick I had to take the top off to get it out of the bottle. Can I say soft hair!!

Just thought I would share that with you.

Do well in school this year!!

thicker conditioner huh? scratch

now that i think about it, thicker conditioners work better for my hair. . . ack! theres soo many possible contributing variables to my firm hair lol. I need to just get a hair steamer so i can cheat and automatically have soft moisturized hair lol Laughing

I started my blog and uploaded my first post today Very Happy

Its a fashion/hair blog. Ill add hair tutorials later on when i have more hair to do lol. Feel free to check it out ---> clicky

by Cherry: extraordinary! 19th October 2010, 6:07 am

Ive been gone for so long! Shocked

its been a little over a month since i posted on my csj! affraid

Its just been crazy with the dogs, helping my sister plan her wedding (im the maid of honor! *SQUEAL*), and school/preparing for college (im a senior) cheers

i havent even posted on my fashion blog yet Sad

. ( im going to do my best to post on that) buuut. . . i do come with updates!!!

-Updates-
1. I have a regimin!!! cheers

Once a week i pretty much just rinse my hair with warm water, shampoo, rinse with warm water, put on my conditioner, finger detangle, drench with cool water, then i hop in the tub and close the curtains and shake my head from side to side lol!

then i pat on my leave-in. Very Happy

. doing all this leaves my hair all curly and soft-ish (i havent really found a product that leaves my hair undeniably soft)

2. My t-shirt print screen; well Neutral

it didnt really work that well but you can believe that i will try again.

3. My prom dress Laughing

yes im still looking for that perfect one. Remember how i said i might do a qipao? well i decided to make it myself Cool

(ill do updates on that in my fashion blog)

4. also going on my fashion blog: a dress that you can do all this (and more!) with it. well my sister wanted this dress for the bridesmaids at her wedding so im making them Cool

I already made one (but its a prototype) and it came out pretty good (pics will be up on the blog). and if i get enough positive feedback i might start selling them (because most places sell them for like 100 bucks

, the cheapest i saw was for 80)

and 5: my hair grew like an inch woot!

lol well im heading to sleep so good bye fellow curlies! I love you

Thanks mstokes and omg! look how long your hair is! affraid

i must have been gone longer than i thought lol Laughing

by mstokes2008 19th October 2010, 11:45 pm

lol it does seem like its been forever! I did a pikstrip last night with length checks on my csj and woah! I can finally see a difference! its growing like a weed lol. How is your hair doing?? any new pics coming?

by sweetdrk1 20th October 2010, 10:19 am

Hey Sunshine,

It's good to see your post you have been mighty busy! Senior year is exciting! Enjoy every moment!

by Cherry: extraordinary! 24th October 2010, 5:07 am

mstokes: YAY I LOVE LENGTH CHECKS!!! lol I cant wait to check them out Very Happy

and my hair is doing pretty good,and i will try to take some pictures tomorrow since itll be wash day.

sweet: Thank you! and it is exciting Very Happy

but its going by so fast! I can barely keep up with everything affraid

i just hope i dont come down with a bad case of "Senior-itis" and get too overwhelmed to the point where i dont get to graduate

but im certainly doing my best! (sidenote: are those you twists with shrinkage?!?! if so they surely have grown a lot! )

by KinkyNappyHappy 28th October 2010, 7:50 am

Hey CherryE....

Your blog is sooo pretty!! LOL Hope I can keep up with it...Tia posted a link where you can follow all of the blogs you like to read. Gotta find that link!!

Anyway....stay focused because Senior-its is so real!!! Most seniors fall off because their class load is not so heavy, and they are so excited about senior year. Remember colleges really look at your class load and they re-evaluate your spring grades. This is the last requirement...that final transcript.

Sorry....don't mean to lecture. I guess its in my blood.

((hugs)) & I love you

I have my fall/winter routine to share with you guys as well as updates and a length check! cheers

I was supposed to post the length check pics a week ago but i got sick and did NOT feel like getting on the computer

(which is super bad since thats how i go to school [so now im sick AND behind in my classes pale

{but dont worry, im well enough now to get back on now Very Happy

}])
so without further ado:

~length check~
(first set [blue shirt] taken on September 6th, second set [black shirt] taken October 25 [i believe])

and as for my fall/winter routine, i am going to twist my hair and leave it scarfed up every day (lol since im home schooled and no one sees me but my family, i might as well) and im not sure if ill change how often i wash my hair scratch

. I havent quite figured out if im going to wash with my twists in or redo them every wash day yet (itll probably depend on the condition of my twists as to when and how often). But what about those days when i want to go outside you ask?!? affraid

well then ill do this!

Cherry: extraordinary! - Page 25 P1080010

i pinned down the twists in the front and put on a hat! and the best part of it?

Cherry: extraordinary! - Page 25 P1080011

I STILL have on my scarf! lol!

and as for updates: i finally put a new post on my blog woot!

(the dress posts should be up later on in the week or early next week) also, my birthday is on Thursday! dance

by LaToya28 3rd November 2010, 1:10 am

You've had some amazing growth in a little over a month! Looks like we are just about the same length. I love how you pinned down your twists and threw on the hat...I'll have to try that.

by Cherry: extraordinary! 3rd November 2010, 4:03 pm

thank you and feel free to check it out! Oh i know how you feel about the mini twists, it takes me about 3-5 hours per twist session! but it does keep my hair tucked away from getting tangled. Im still learning how to cornrow my own hair so for now, mini twists are my only option. My brothers doing great, well except for the fact that he keeps asking for an X-box EVERY 30 minutes Rolling Eyes

im not gonna hear the end of it til Christmas lol
