OH MY GOSH, you guys, I have been gone waaaaay too long! Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday season and that your 2011 is off to an OUTSTANDING start. So, what's the news? I have been sooo lacking in my hair care regimen. I went on deployment with the best of intentions for everything and the only thing I really did was buy wigs online and have a good time... LOL Oh well, new year, new start right? I am in the middle of planning out a brand spanking new regimen that will incorporate the "green house effect" and the "Crown and Glory" Method, with a couple of my own tweeks of course. I'm also planning on doing some braids here in the next few days. And has anyone ever heard of cleaning your face with OIL? Sounds crazy, right? Well, I was reading up on it....online....and decided to give it a try.
So what is my hair doing right now? Well, it is in need of a trim (The Split Ender is on my wish list), but I really don't want to go to the salon. Actually, I'm not sure if it's so much that I don't wanna go, or that I really don't have the time to go......no baby sitter :( Anywho, I will just be snipping any knots or ragged ends as I see fit when twisting. None-the-less, my hair has gotten to a pretty good length, I can barely fit it under some of my wigs, stopping just below my collar bone..... APL here I come :) I gave myself an Aphogee Two-Step Protein Treatment and a blow-out in anticipation of these braids. I like to do my hair in stages, I feel like it gives it (not to mention my scalp) little breaks between the "stress" I put it under. I've been wearing it in this little roll, tuck, and pin protective style for the last couple of days. And did I mention I had my 1 year anniversary of being natural on 21 August 2010? Obviously not, because I haven'y been posting, but I am officially 1 year and 4 months natural... Yay me! Ok, I think it's time to go to bed. I will post my new proposed regimen within the next couple of days. TTYL, until then peace and many blessings :) HHG!
