I'm ready to see that puff again!!!

by sweetdrk1 26th February 2010, 12:00 am

Evening Curlies,

I am so very SICK of the snow!!! Good Gravy!!! When is the first day of spring again???

Today I wore day 4 of a WnG, that style is so easy for me it is my fallback when I am too lazy to do anything else. I came on and saw what Lynn said, so I decided to twist my hair. I don't know why my twist don't look like everyone elses...but while I was scrutinizing myself I saw a pic from Dec with Twist vs tonight and the growth is so clear. cheers

So what did I do? I put a little KCCC on each little section after detangling and twisted. So I twisted on dry hair. I don't know how long I will leave them in or if I will just do a twist out in the morning and do I puff for Lynn. We shall see! Well, I am off to see what you all have been doing today!

by **Lynnieluve** 26th February 2010, 12:10 am

OooWeee!!! That hair is growing!!!! Sweetdrk1 - Page 38 Icon_cheers

Im lookin forward to the twist-out or the puff and aww sorry to here about the snow, it seem like the weather has been crazy all over! It keeps raining here every couple of days and its been to the point where there has been flooding and mud-slides. I cant wait til spring when hopefully itll all stop.

Hair:

by sunbaby 26th February 2010, 3:29 pm

is it just me or do you all have a natural radar! I went to the movies this evening and saw a sister that had a buzz cut, she was rocking it!! We made eye contact and smiled at each other!![/quote]

Sweetdrk1,

I must start by saying that I LOVE your hair and you are absolutely beautiful!! Everytime I see your avi in a thread, I think that girl has it going on!!! I have just discovered your thread so it will take me awhile to catch up on your journey.

I saw the comment above and it is sooo true, everytime I see another naturalista, we exchange an almost sneaky grin, like "Aren't you glad you went natural?'' I love it. Sweetdrk1 - Page 38 Icon_biggrin

Remember, there is no testimony without a test...

I read an awesome quote the other day, that I want you to keep in mind..."EVERYTHING WILL BE ALLRIGHT IN THE END....SO IF IT'S NOT ALLRIGHT, THEN IT'S NOT THE END!!" God most definitely has something better in store for you!!

Hang in there,

I love this!! I going to write it down and put it in my wallet so I can read it whenever I need to!! Thank you!!

To all of my curlies I love you guys, my own personal angels, pulling, and pushing me through this storm brewing inside of me. I read and sometimes re-read everything you guys write. Today was a busy one...woke up to car trouble, had to get a rental, get the car to my dad (don't cha just love DADS?) Had to meet with the company lawyer and be interviewed by the EEOC (don't ask) Meanwhile it is raining, snainin, sleeting, you name it and it is falling out of the skies over northern NJ. The wind blew my $15 umbrella down the street and after it I went. HMPH! I said $15

Hair update:

nothing new to report outside of the constant cold rinsing I got when mother nature took my umbrella! LOL!! Love you ladies!

My dad says this all the time! His version is "it always ends ok. if it's not ok, it's not the end." He even had it printed out and laminated and sent me 2 of them. I keep one on my fridge and the other on my bathroom mirror. Send me your address and I'll send you one :-) It's an awesome thing to see every morning on the mirror in the bathroom. It's funny because I never really notice it unless I need to hear it...

You Got Mail! LOL I somehow missed this thank you sooo much! You Rock!

nothing special with the hair Curlfriends. I sat here sealed my ends and moisturized the twist with my shea butter mix while watchin the Image awards and lookin for Terra!

by NubieNatty 27th February 2010, 12:07 am

first off, LOVE ur 6th month anniversary special, too cute!! mine is next month so i DEFINITELY need to celebrate and treat "bianca devine" to something. im definitely feelin stretchin my hair with these coils...ok now for my questions:

1. how in the world do you have curls ALL OVER?? esp for ur wash n go's??? my hair is coily all around but once i get to the top its wavy/frizzy straight Sweetdrk1 - Page 38 Icon_neutral

2. how do you use ur pooka hair nectar? i know it comes in that lil medicine lookin thingy so are u mixin it with something?

im wondering becuz this wknd their havin a good sale, $3 shipping which would save me almost $7...i HATE to spend on high shipping cost so i might take advantage of it this wknd...

3. how are u stretchin ur wash-n-go's cuz by day 3 my head is lookin like a microphone all over again!!

stay cozy in the snow, you KNOW we feel yall pain cuz that was us just a mere 2 wks ago Sweetdrk1 - Page 38 Icon_mad

1. how in the world do you have curls ALL OVER?? esp for ur wash n go's??? my hair is coily all around but once i get to the top its wavy/frizzy straight I have to pay special attention and make sure the top of my head is really covered with whatever I use. That is my frizz zone. What do you do to define your curls? Shingle or raking...one of these method may work

2. how do you use ur pooka hair nectar? i know it comes in that lil medicine lookin thingy so are u mixin it with something? I do everything but fry my chicken lol!!! I put it in my water bottle, I whip my shea butter with it, I use it to do my oil rinse, I put it on my finger tips when I do my coils and coil outs, same with twist/twist outs. I put it in a little bottle with an applicator tip and I mix it with EVOO and oil my scalp.

im wondering becuz this wknd their havin a good sale, $3 shipping which would save me almost $7...i HATE to spend on high shipping cost so i might take advantage of it this wknd... go for it!

3. how are u stretchin ur wash-n-go's cuz by day 3 my head is lookin like a microphone all over again!! I use Mahogany Curls method of spraying and shaking in the morning. At night I either sleep in a bonnet or on my satin pillow case. The very important thing I have found with WnG is NOT to touch your hair while it's wet. HTH

stay cozy in the snow, you KNOW we feel yall pain cuz that was us just a mere 2 wks ago I am so very over the snow!!! For the love of pete! Mess!!

by Intelligentbeauty 27th February 2010, 1:13 am

I am sick of this snow too, Sweet. Rain is suppose to be headed our way too. Sweetdrk1 - Page 38 Icon_mad

by NubieNatty 27th February 2010, 2:02 am

ok, gimme the quick n simple term on how to shingle??? i will try the raking more product at the top but wont it take much longer to dry?

by **Lynnieluve** 27th February 2010, 11:11 am

What's your favorite Pooka scent?

by BlondeByDesire 27th February 2010, 1:01 pm

Good Morning,

Wow, those twists are really long. I can't wait to see the twist out.

I know how you feel about all the snow. Luckily we just a dusting and high winds.
