I've been itching to try some but have been leery for some reason, mostly because I have color in my hair and have been paranoid about what color my hair will turn. But since I've seen the color of your hair in person, you've given me a little hope!

If you want, I can do it with you! Yeah, since your hair color is so awesome, that is a concern...but fear not. The color took VERY well...i have a few dark brown highlights and they really feel well hydrated and look super shiny and healthy...i'd recommend it. You can't wash the color out, so you're stuck with it for about a month, so if you REALLY hate it, know that it fades away but I'm confident you'll love it and your hair will too

also note, it can only make your hair darker...i know yours is kind of light, so that may be something you should think about..but other than that, i'd recommend henna to anyone!

I'm gonna take the plunge soon - maybe when I've got a little down time around the holidays. I've heard too many great things about it to not try it, and my hair could definitely use a little help in the conditioning department. I actually wouldn't mind it darkening my hair - now that I have the color, I want it to be dark again! I've just been concerned about what I've read about other henna turning the hair a reddish color. I don't need mine to be any brighter!

@curlykinks let me know your hair won't get any brighter so don't worry about that

Hey ladies, I hope your day and hair are both wonderful tomorrow and you enjoy time with friends/family or solitude

My hair today is behaving very nicely after I did a chunky re-twist last night with a little set it free, olive oil and water mix and sealed with shea butter

You enjoy your holiday also! I may have to do an updo also to avoid FIH (food in hair) . Twist out is going strong.

Your hair is looking lovely and shiny!

Have a good holiday -- I am going to try that dark henna soon.

RebelRocks, loving the twists! I did chunky twist myself this time.

Thank you! Omg at first I thought my hair was too short for chunky twists, but they are the best thing ever, as long as they are fully dry before you take them out

hey lady the hair is still gorgeous. One thing to improve the suave is to add olive oil n honey to the bottle. that way u can use the rest.

I really love your hair in this pic. It's really full and beautiful.

@humannature, thank you ma lady! yours rock too!!

Good morning ladies, I'm depressed. I thought my hair was on the right track but it's totally not. The ends are super duper heat and color damaged! My hair has been growing super fast and that's how I can tell the difference in textures! Some is super soft and feels healthy..and the rest feels like straw! Lord help me! I was really focusing on growing my hair...now i must switch my focus to hair health, HMPH! i should have never flat ironed! Never again! EVER!

Guess i'll just have to keep whackin the ends off until they're all gone...I was really looking forward to my huge fro...that will have to wait...Duty calls!

Anyhoo, here are a few pix
Me and my sisters 8m old puppy, Ava


Before church Saturday


Today, gross!


oh! i did a braidout for the first time! Hated it! The results were fair but it took way too long to unravel and looked no better than my twistout!

I washed with dr.bronners and a little bit of giovanni's tea tree shampoo. Condished with GF and I tried a new one...vio something sorry, i forgot! It was awesome though! I'll post the name and review tomorrow!

I re-visited my CD's healthy hair butter...it's actually pretty awesome! I used that, coconut oil, devaone, a little set it free and sealed with shea

I STILL havent tried that healthy hair butter again. its so thick! did you mix it with the other things or put it on separately.

and ava looks spoiled! lol is she a lab? or weimerainer (i KNOW i didn't spell that right). my puppy just turned 1 a month ago and I came in my room found him standing on my bed and almost put him out! lol. and today he destroyed one of my hair clips grrrrr lol.

oh and I think when you focus on the health of your hair growing is a natural by-product...so I think the switch will be a good thing!

I didn't mix it per-se...I put it on with coconut oil, devaone and set it free...I think I like it again My hair loves products!

Ava IS spoiled, I think she can talk sometimes! She's a weimaraner and at only 8 months she's HUGE! She can hardly fit in my lap, and I can't pick her up anymore...my sister and her husband have a handful!

Awe LOL BAD dog! What kind of puppy do you have?

Your pup is cute. Ava's arm looks human.

I'm feeling a lot better, thank you

Ava looks human, lol! She is an interesting doggie

weimeraners are soooo friggin smart I think she probably can talk lol. and they are so tall... too big for my 1 bedroom apt lol.

I have a pit bull that thinks he's a shih tzu...i swear. he tries to jump in your lap - at 60 lbs! he really thinks he weighs like 10 lbs. and he throws himself on people tryna play. he is a trip. his name is caesar and I shouldn't have named him that cuz he really thinks this is his palace lol.

OMG that's how Ava is! She's always jumping up like she weighs a few ounces! She's going to be over 70 lbs! But she is VERY smart


Aweeee Caesar is such a cute name ^_^
