10 Weeks Into My Stretch

I'm in stretching mode now...This week started my 10th week of my stretch...

I go through so much conditioner when stretching...

So I went to Tj Maxx and stocked up on Giovanni, and Chi Products...

Thanks to all of you I have become addicted to TJ Maxx.. I'm there weekly trying to see what
hair products they have in....I haven't went crazy though...I have just been stocking up
on products that I'm already using..I love the fact that they carry the big bottles of my favorites..

Like Giovanni Smooth As Silk, Giovanni 50:50 , Chi Infra Treatment, Nexxus Humectress...

I also buy my Chi Silk Infusion, and Chi Keratin Mist from Tjmaxx .

I plan on stretching this time  to Valentines Day or my B-day which is the
2nd week of March...So none of the conditioner will go to waste between deep conditioning and
co washes..

 Protein, conditioning, moisturizing, and low manlipulation is what I do to get through the weeks..

I do plan straigtening at least once a month..Blow out my roots and flat iron (If weather allows)..
Other than that I plan on rocking braid outs, bantu knots and damp buns..

After You Reach Your Final Goal

I don't know if any of you noticed...I never update my Fotki now, or any of my pics for that matter...
I just gotten to the point where I've reached my all time ultimate goal..Now what ???

I used to take length shots for the excitement and hope of seeing if I made my next goal...Now I look in the mirror and I see I need a trim to maintain my length...

I'm happy with my current length ..Longer hair is more work ..Plus this length looks great with
my size...I have been keeping my hair cut right between WL and HL....

One thing I did promise myself is to enjoy all of my hard work ...Thats exactly what I have been doing..


My question is....Did anyone else feel this way after they reached their final goal

Back On Track !!!

I'm glad to say that my hair is back on track.....Like I was sharing before..Damp bunning was exactly what I needed...

I know some of you requested a video for damp bunning ...So I will try to do that this week...Trying hard to still update my blog and KISS even though I don't have a lot of time these days because of work..

****The Rumor That K.I.S.S. Has Been Sold...Is Exactly That A Rumor...If It Wasn't Said On K.I.S.S....Then It Is NOT TRUE ****

Well I damp bunned like I said .....

When I took my bun down after I got home and let it finish drying my hair felt AMAZING....I'm so happy thats all I needed...I was making plans to baggy tonight....I will skip the bagging since my hair is responding well...

Tomorrow after I work out I will co wash and do another damp bun ....

My hair has just gone through so much abuse...I have flat ironed twice in the last 30 days and I have been wearing it out daily....I have been enjoying my hair to the fullest ...Being double processed only makes it worse..

Yet and still I'm listening to my hair ...Right now its asking for moisture and a break...So I will do what its says ... I do not want any set backs...

Damp Bunning It

Why is it easy to stretch sometimes and other times its so hard ?? I think I maybe 8-9 weeks post and my new growth is out of control ...Its not a lot of new growth ...It just seems like it is growing in a lot coarser than normal...

On top of my managing two different hair textures...My hair got really dry today...The Hubby and I was out most of the day and my hair just kept getting drier and drier....I all could do was think about getting home to fix this....

I guess wearing my hair out everyday ...My hair is finally begging for a break... I decided to baggy/deep condition overnight...

I applied Nexxus Humectress from root to tip on dry hair ..Covered my hair with a plastic cap and my scarf..

Tomorrow I will rinse and co wash...I plan on damp bunning for a couple of weeks to give my
hair a much needed break..

My Husbands View On My Hair Journey

Happy Thanksgiving !!!

I guess there are a few hours left to Thanksgiving...So Happy Thanksgiving !!!! I hope all of you took the time to thank God for all the people and things in your life...

I didn't do much to my hair for today....So much cooking.... Who had time for hair ??? I just did a 2 braid -braid out..Nothing fancy...

I have fallen back in love with braid outs...Thats all I have been rockin since Sept .....I love the fact that my braid outs hang about MBL.....Sometimes I dream of WL braidouts...But that would mean I would have to grow my hair out to probably Tail bone...Which I would never do..That is way too much hair for me ...Hahaaha

I'm 8 weeks post relaxer and I have about 1 inch of new growth ...Which isn't bad at all...I just flat ironed my hair a couple of weeks ago and I didn't really have any newgrowth at all...Then all of the sudden its growing ing like a vengance...I can't be the only person that experiences this ???


Enough rambling...I hope all of you have a safe night......
