took out the cornrows

ok, so i took out my cornrows today, thank goodness.  i was over it! lol  i loved them for all of about 2 days then missed my hair.  my hair was so long when i took them out(stretched), but i absolutely hated the way it felt!  then i jumped in the shower and the shrinkage came right away.   i decided to do a wash and go today.  after washing i sprayed with my olive oil spray the applied a little shea butter leave in conditioner, then olive oil gel.  heres a quick pic;

OH THE PRODUCT BUILD UP!  i will post a pic of it when its dry to!

considering flat twist out

i've noticed a lot of people tend to check out my flat twist out pics...   hmm.... makes me kinda want to try that style again since my hair is longer now!  i just may tonight and just sit under a dryer so it will dry faster!  lol  my dad found my dryer in his storage yesterday!  of course i wouldn't use it all the time, but best believe it will be getting some use!

budget!

they better get this budget deal resolved!  this impacts so much, i hope everyone realizes this.  national parks, museums, and so on....

-17,000 people alone out of work from the parks.
-health and human services workers will be out of work.  medicare and medicaid workers will continue to work.
-further delay with irs tax returns
-planned parenthood could lose funding.
-----and that is a small part of what could happen....

no ponytail after 1 year!

soooo, its been a year now and i'm still unable to fully pull my hair back into a ponytail!  what the!  oh, the frustration.  it could be partly my fault for wearing braids every now and then, cause i do notice my hair grows a lot faster when its out and free.  i love having my hair out and i also love t experiment with my hair.

you're suppose to do what your reacts to!  thats what i keep telling myself!  so, if i know it likes to be free out of braids then i need to wear it that way!  i will try!  i just cant wait to be able to pull my hair back into a ponytail!  grow hair!  grow!

cornrows

So, i got bored today, and this was the result of me looking for something to do.   not to shabby!  lol  i was thinking of what in the world to do with my hair, then remember seeing on black girl with long hair a picture of Ciara with cornrows and thought what the hey, i know how to do that and at least i can rock it for a couple day or maybe a week.  knowing me it will only be a couple days cause i will start to miss having my hair out.

also...  before i put my hair in cornrows i was out and about in public thinking my hair was looking in absolute mess!  guess not!  i was approached by two different women telling me how beautiful my hair was.  i was rocking a four day old twist out and had been to the gym every am sweating my twist OUT! each day after the gym as i would get bored i would twirl different sections between my fingers trying to maintain something, anything!  little did i know i was making it look amazing! lol  just when you think you're having a bad hair day you get compliments!  kudos!
