Major Set back 08/2010**Update**☻

Hey Lovely♥




I know I've been M.I.A. since May 2010(6 months I know L.... and so much has happened since then) well you guys saw my last video of my 3 months relaxed stretch/ hair update on May ~19, 2010... after that relaxer I did another 3 months stretch and went for a relaxer which was done by an old class mate from beauty school( I went for Esthetician and Nail Tech not Cosmo) the same one that did my relaxer at the school may 2010, offered to give me a touch up since it had been 3 months(he asked sooner but I said no) I said sure-assuming he's fresh out of school and figured he should be up to par enough not to do anything crazy(I should have know something was up when after I told him I wanted to get a rinse on the same day as my relaxer and he said that would damage my hair**A NONE PERMANENT COLOR CAN NOT DAMAGE YOUR HAIR**) while he was back there doing my relaxer he got this really great idea to relax my entire head as if it was virgin “hair-roots to tips” "WTF!!"" on top of that he did not rinse the relaxer out properly( I had to rush him the remove the relaxer immediately as soon as I saw that white cream on my end “I was pass mad at that moment“--I had scabs all along the back of my neck which lasted a while... But wait that wasn’t the only great idea he got while he was back there….there’s more…he even had the nerve to give me a "Trim!!!" which was really a cut taking a more than 2 inches of hair-, he burned my scalp with the flat iron on numerous occasion and let’s not even mention that blow dryer...none the less it took me over 6 months to go from wanting to beat the crap out of him to messing me up and setting my Healthy Hair Journey back so far not speaking to him( with a STRONG dislike) and he even had the nerve to txt me asking when am I going to get to play in your hair again(it took me a while) but my response was "lol this must be a Fu**ing joke, NEVER!!!!!" you can actually see thru the ends of my hair now because it was over processed... UHG!!!! I don’t think I’ll be doing a video update yet….. Sorry L



On Thurs.11/10/10(Holiday)

I self relaxed my Hair w/ Gentle relaxed from Sally followed by DC using ORS Replenishing Conditioner with Africa's best oil for 45 min to an hour-if not more, followed by my leave in and serum, I did a roller set (Mohawk style), flat iron, wrap my hair, and took down wrap the next day. Saturday 11/12/10 I did a prepoo with Suave condition and Honey mix for 20-30min and followed that with a DC treatment using ORS Replenishing conditioner.



*****I recently started keeping a detail journey for my HHJ****



Lost 17+ pound between August-October 2010(the healthy way☺)

I'm still big on eating sweets but I’ve reduce my daily intake to whatever I carry in my lunch box for the day.

to avoid the snack area I no longer bring change to work

I brown bag my lunch daily

Run/ Walk 2+ miles about 30-45 min M-F and 4+ miles on Sat & Sun

Starting Jan 2011 I will be starting my Invisiline treatment (I’ve been trying to do it since High school) I was able to pay cash for the braces but I had to learn to save and be frugal..



I was thinking about stretching my relaxer until I’m finish with the treat which will take about 9 months( I really excited about the satisfied with the Orthodontist I’ve chosen. J

Luv ya ♥♥♥♥♥

Dealing With Dry Black, African American, and Afro Caribbean & Black Hair( For relax, natural, texlax, color treated, etc.)

"How to Combat Dryness" One of the most challenging aspects of dealing with our black hair is combating dryness. Black hair tends to be dry because of its physical structure. Dry hair is brittle hair, and when hair is brittle it breaks easily. However there are several steps that you can take to deal with dry hair. One of the most important things you can do to deal with dry hair is to be sure you always wash your hair with a gentle shampoo.
