Crvng4mr " It's my 1 year BC anniversary"

I think you would get it before Christmas if you ordered now. Curlmart is pretty good.

Thanks!

Hey crvg4mr, i just placed an order on Curlmart for the first time. I had to get the Oyin. I am hoping, wishing and praying that it will show up before Christmas! I didn't like that they only carried the smaller size, but i guess it will be ok for now. Thanks for the suggestion

Hi beauties! I am back! I know I have been mia for a minute but I'm here now. I haven't been doing anything different than what I was doing before except for about 4 weeks I wore my hair straight because it was way to cold to wear WnG and I haven't mastered twist or twist outs for that matter. I feel that my curls are getting more defined as days pass, maybe because of the HEHH. Saturday I tried Redken's Smooth Down Deep Conditioner and Deva Curl Set It Free. I don't think I am in love with either. The conditioner went on nice, smooth and slick but my hair didn't feel that way when I rinsed it out. I then sprayed on the Set It Free and I can't say I was impressed or anything else. Actually I was disappointed, so I will be listing my small bottle in the swap post. Here are some recent pics of my hair from today. BTW I am having Whipped Pudding withdrawal from Oyin!!!!! I need it now!

Welcome back!

Thanks Lynnie!

Hey lady!! Your hair looks great!!

Hey Shee! Thanks, nice to see you!

Did the same routine today, what can I say, it's simple and it works. Co-washed with HEHH, left some in and clipped half up while leaving the rest down. Maybe I'll get adventurous this weekend.

Your hair looks great! Welcome back.

Thank you Juices n Berries.

WOW your naked hair is beautiful!! Welcome back!!

Thank you KinkyNappyHappy!

ChrsLvsBks, thank you! It seems like HEHH and Suave Coconut are doing my hair well.

Tonight I DC'd with Giovanni Smooth as Silk Protein Hair Infusion. Loved it so far! It reminded me of vasaline but a little smoother. Went on great and also after I rinsed it out my hair was very soft and moisturized. I am going to try twist now. So I will be back to share my thoughts.

Also ChrsLvsBks, congrats on the weight loss! I also lost 12lbs in the past 3 weeks. Keep up the good work. I know Zumba is kicking my @ss! LOL

Zumba is so much fun. I loved the "burn" I was feeling but now it doesnt hurt anymore - I guess I need to go a little hair.

Chrs, B and Tia I love Zumba! My daughter's been doing it with me and we are hyped. I'm trying to take it twice a week plus a weight class after on Tues but it depends on my schedule.

I must say that I am sooooo inspired by everyone here. All you beautiful natural ladies. I love it!

Well me daughter twisted my hair for me and it took her 3 hrs last night byt it looks good. I will post pics tommorrow. My hair feels so soft and moisturized I need to keep my hands out of my hair. I think tommorrow I will keep the twist in and then try to do a twist out on Wednesday.

See you gals manana!

Hey! Today I kept the twist in but wore my hair in a high bun. I liked it. Here are some pics from Sunday when I first twisted, yesterday half up and today. Tomorrow my plan is to do some kind of pin up and then on Thursday a twist out. I haven't had to remoisturize as of yet so far so good.

I must say your daughter did a great job!!! If I could twist I would were that style like forever!!! LOL

I like the twists. I've always like the half up, half down look. I did that when I had a relaxer. Even though it made me look 5. Lol.

Hi ladies! So my major goal is to keep my hair healthy and achieve my length goal of mid-back length straight and full shoulder length all around natural. I feel like my hair is growing and now I feel like I am having to change up routines. I hate change! Anywho I am looking at different styles and stylers to help me be me.

I have one big problem area, my crown. The shrinkage is fierce and I believe it has protein overload as the rest of my hair is neutral. It is driving me crazy. I have an appt with the "Curl Whisperer" on may 18th. I am soooo looking forward to it. I know she will be able to tell me so much info in regards to my hair's dna (poresity, type, strength, texture etc.) and I look forward to getting a DevaChan haircut. My hair definitely needs better shape.

So I have tried YTCucumbers for a little over a week and I think its pretty good. My first impression wasn't that great but I think it was because I tried it first on a shampoo day. I did a DC with sour cream, honey, EVOO on dry hair for 2 hours and loved it. I can't say that my HG is YTC but if I need to run out to get something then at least I can use this as a fall back. I will be trying in the near future SheaMoisture as soon as I find it at a Target and Giovanni conditioners (including leave in) even though I have been and continue to use their 50:50 Shampoo and love it. I bought a huge bottle at my beauty supple store (I mean like 32Oz) for only $9.99. It's going to last me until October if not longer I think (a whole year) since I only wash every 3 to 4 weeks.

I have a very busy schedule starting next Saturday for 6 days. My son, Cai, is having his first communion on Sat, the next day is Mother's Day and my brother's birthday. Then Wednesday is Cai's birthday and mine is the next day Thursday! I am working on some styles the will look fierce and wwon't take forever. Suggestions welcome .

Well last night I did a all over length check. Sort of. What I mean is I just stretched my hair in different spots and used a ruler, lol. I didn't want to straighten, in fact I really don't want to straighten until September. I felt slightly dissapointed that in some areas I am at 9", 12" and in between. As long as my daughter did it right. I guess my hair grows different. But as I am writing to you I am thinking that maybe it's that way because I have layers, I dunno.

Bottom line is my goal is 16" and I am getting a haircut(shape) in 2 weeks.

The twists your daughter did looked really good. The bun is cute too!

i didnt know the gio comes in a big bottle at BS??? and u sound like me on YTCucumbers...have u tried the carrots?
