Beloved Frohawk

I have always coveted this style on others, and am so glad that I am able to do a mini hawk. I have been so bad to my hair these few days. It seems when my boyfriend is staying over, I forget all sense of being, LOL!!! I got it bad and I know it... anyway, I am sorry hair, LOVE YOU!!!!!

Condition

I conditioned with egg on Saturday and my hair is so shiny!!!!!

The following hairstyles are not months apart but rather a day apart from each other, Saturday- Wash n GO (shrunken) Sunday- Fro and Monday- twist out.

By looking at the first picture, one would think I did a big chop, but it is simply washed with a little oil rubbed through it. The following day I felt liberated and wanted to wear my fro! Boy did I turn heads and cause a bit of curiosity. I had gone in to Wal-Mart the day before with my very shrunken fro and the following day I had to go back to Wal-Mart, yeah I know, I have no life..... but this time I was rocking the fro. Ironically, the same guy checked me out the day before. The lady behind me was just in awe of my hair and the guy at the check out was like that is not her hair!!! I had to allow this negro to do a scalp check. He was just like man, that is neat, how did you get your hair to do that. I told him that was the beauty in our hair. It simply can do whatever we want it to do. It got me to thinking about WHY women relax their hair versus keeping it natural. Yes, it is a choice, but the choice doesn't make sense to me. By being natural I can simply wear it in its natural state, I can fro it, I can straighten it if I choose to, I can do twist outs, braid outs, coils, coil outs, fro-hawks, flat twists and a myriad of other styles. To me, you minimize your choices when you relax your hair It will only be straight unless you get a weave! Why not keep it nappy and be that chameleon that keeps folks wondering how did you do that?!

Slow progress, but progress nonetheless!

Okay, so I blew my hair out this morning on low heat of course, and I was shocked and in awe myself of the growth. One of my co-workers said that she loved it and how big it was getting... She is one of those white girls who wished she was black and had a fro! Dontcha just love that :) Anyway, I am going on my trip the Whole Food Market today to get some much needed products for my hair!!! I love it and love that even though I have slacked on my routine, my hair is still on the grow.

OH for the love of my hair!!!

I struggle with consistency in the area of my hair and notice immediately when I start slacking off my routine. I am trying so hard to stay on top of my water intake as I know healthy hair starts with what I put into my body and of course, my diet... help me father. Anyway, I am going tomorrow to get more Shea Butter because I am out and also some vitamins to help assist me on my journey to healthier and longer strands.... I haven't been updating because of other things preoccupying my time, but my hair is always on my mind. I am wearing it in a coil out right now. It is funny because everyone thinks my hair is cut, but when I stretch it out, they are like wow. Love the shock and awe!

Water Shortage

I am ashamed to admit it, but I have not had water in almost three days; I know shoot me now. I have been drinking juice, and sodas and my hair is not happy at all. It has become dry and is actually popping :( I refuse to go back to old habits if it is something I can control. Today I am going on a water binge!!!!!!!
