Finished Product

Hello Peeps:

So, I have completed my hair and it is not as itchy as it was and it for sure looks better in style. So, I plan to go a few days like this and then towards the end of the week  and then wash and use some of ther anti-itch product. I am a member of the Sisterlock group on facebook and some sister's has suggested witch hazel, selsum blue and neutragena T-gel..

So, my plan is to find one of these and to get back with you on what solution worked best for me. Here is a picture of my finished product.

Cure this Hair & Scalp immediately


Clip, Wash & Curl

Hello Peeps:

So as of now I have called my loctician in Florida and she has advised me on how to clip my ends one re- tightening at a time. It sounds like a possible cure, so I am excited about taking a jab at it.
At this point I have used washed my hair and placed it in pipe cleaners for some curls for the week. My ends are so thick that my hair probably won't be dry until tomorrow sometime so I will be in the house for the evening.
I have taken some pics of the hair and my utensils that I will share with you.
Added the Baking Soda and I thought it would add to the thickness and it seems to have added some chalk to the hair. I will wash it again in a few days. However the next time I will bundle it to save my ends that do not seem to be mature at this time.
All saturated in ACV and I used the gloves to prevent my hands from smelling awful. It's amazing at how my head tingles when I have it on my scalp.
Here I am in my cap before I shower and roll my hair. I sat in this for 15 mins with the apple cider and then for 5 mins with the baking soda on. Today this cap served a purpose for each step in the TAKING my hair back campaign.
                                    Here is my roller set that will have me locked inside for the day. My hair will take forever to dry and you KNOW that I cannot be out in public with these different colored rollers. That will not be cute and my family probably would not want me around them.

Itching Solution Part II

Hey Peeps:

So, I have watched so many videos and I have decided to make one myself to capture my frustration with my locks. Also, I wanted you all to be able to see them so that you can understand exactly where I am coming from. I am ALWAYS itching or fighting fat ends, I like to wear pins and clips in my hair at times but it's so fat that they won't stay put. OMG so frustrating. So, here is my video giving you my battle cry and I want you to see the one that made me somewhat hopeful that I can grab control of my hair somehow.


Itching Solution Experiment

Hello:

So, I mentioned earlier that my hair is so itchy. I have been searching on YouTube for some solutions and I found a possible solution. I am going to share this young ladies video with you so that you can see what I have decided to try out and make my own if it works. I plan to do this on my own hair first so that I do not ruin Nichole's hair if this doesn't work. I am excited and nervous all in one, but overall I need a solution that will work so I am somewhat DESPERATE.. This itching is horrible, last night while I was scratching my husband asked me did I have hives in my head...What the What???

Anyway I am off to try this out and I will follow up and let you all know, enjoy your weekend.

Hello Peeps-

I wanted to allow you all to see how much Nic's hair has grown in this second year of her locks..Her is Nic on Easter 2012.



Four Years

Hello Peeps:

So, I have not had my locks for three years and for the most part I am not feeling these fat and hard ends on some of them. Apparently my hair has wrapped itself around one another on the ends and I absolutely hate that..The ends are scratching my neck and causing me a rash. Also, the ends are hard to tuck away in hair pins and various styles that I would like to try out.

Additionally, I scalp has been itching like nobodies business. I have tried the ACV and I just watched a youtube video about using baking soda. So, I think I am about to try both methods in a few minutes so that I can get my scalp feeling better and to get a nice hairstyle for next week.
Lately, I have felt SL challenged as my hair has not been cooperative and appeared to do better in a freestyle manner. Well I have started a new job and there are not any women of color working there so I would like to represent in a very nice and professional manner in the physical and mental. I am sure that it will all balance when I get this hair on track.
Next month I will become a trainer, which means more sweating in my head therefore it is imperative that I find a washing method that works for me. I am attaching a picture of myself at three years and Nichol (my daughter at two years. I will post more pictures of Nichole as this picture does  not capture her hair like I would like too. However, I love the way my hair looks-Wishing everyone a very happy Natural Day~
