So I had an extreme hair fail tonight. I tried my friend's hair style (which I have previously posted a pic of. Ill link to it later) except she did a roll tuck and I figured I'd flat twist (which is how the style is SUPPOSED to be done. My friend just can't flat twist). BAD IDEA!
I spent 3 hours and only got half my head done. My arms were killing me and when I took a pic of the back to look at it, it was all messed up! So then I spent another hour trying to think of ways to fix it. In the end, I just ended up putting it in a puff for bed. I have service tomorrow. Either ill try for a roll tuck and pin style or ill go back to my faithful ol' two strand twists.
Being a new mom is time consuming and energy draining and on top of that I've always been kind of "lazy" about my hair. So, in an attempt to take better care of my hair through creating (and sticking to) a regular regimen, using protective styles, and doing more research on how to keep my hair healthy, I've created this blog. This is strictly for personal use (as motivation as well as documentation) however if anyone finds something that I write useful, feel free to comment :-)

I've been Bad
Ok. It's been close to a year since I've last updated and that is BAD! I got really busy and stressed last summer and just didn't update as much as I should have. BUT!! I will try to do better. Last year I had to cut my hair. Lots of damaged split ends and fairy knots. I also tried to color it with an at home box. My hair was like "NUH UNH!!" I barely have a few sections that are a kind of auburn color. Just random patches tho. I've been doing generally ok with protective styling but just trying to make sure I'm keeping up with a good regimen. In the process of trying a style that a friend of mine was rocking a few months ago. I tried using aloe Vera juice for he first time today. I had no idea how to mix so I did just over 1/4 a cup of aloe Vera juice and a little over 1/2 cup of water with 1 tsp of olive oil. We'll see how it feels by the end of the night. It feels very moisturizer right now. will post pics of the finished product later :-)
