And It Continues....

At this point this whole thing of switching to texlaxing feels like a transition... It didn't feel like a transition before but now it does... Someone said I'm transitioning with grace... But to be honest the last thing I feel is graceful..hahahaha

Its actually time to retouch but just haven't felt like doing the work to relax my hair... At this point in the game I have enough texlax hair to know I love it !!! So everything that I'm going through is going to be worth it one day..

I have finally made up my mind that this is not going to be a long transition... I plan on trimming often and doing several major chops this year.. I don't want to transition longer than a year... Texlaxed hair here I come !!!!

I haven't relaxed yet also because I'm thinking of plaiting my hair weekly and doing wigs as a protective style... Hmmmm... Maybe I don't know about that one yet...Lol... I have been looking at wigs and they are expensive...

Maxi-Hair from Country Life

I have to confess.... I haven't taken any vitamins since maybe June or July... I just got tired of taking them..The smell of a vitamin makes want to throw up ... I can tell a difference ? OMGoodness yes ! My knees are killing me especially since its was colder.. My hair to me isn't the same and I have like no energy...

So I'm slapping myself on the hand and doing what I know I need to do... But instead of taking 5 or 6 different supplements .. I'm going to take just one ...

Today at the Vitamin Shoppe I picked up Maxi- Hair and I have read great reviews on it.. It great for people who have allergies and it doesn't have all that extra junk in it...So tomorrow I take them for the first time and I will be back in several months to give my review..

A Few Questions and Comments Answered from my Previous Blogs

  • One thing I have been using the Silk Amino Acids for is to doctor up products that I'm trying to get rid of and it works.... So after my last post with the stuggle to bun my hair LOL.. I took Right On Curl activator and put it is my spray bottle and mixed in about a ounce of Silk Amino Acids... I loved the Right On but during that time I was using a lot of glycerin and my hair was experiencing a moisture overload so I backed off those products...

 Well let me tell you the mix is amazing !!! I spritz my hair then seal it with Bee Mine Luscious Moisturizer... Its so moisturizing I just use it every other day... I will use this mix till the I empty the Right On Bottle... Then I will try to use and toss something else...

  • Yes I'm going to continue to texlax.... When I say I'm going to relax you have to remember Texlaxing is not a texturizer... If you use a texturizer you are texturized.... The term Texlax means you relax your hair only long enough to loosen your curl pattern.. So someone invented the term texlaxed b/c you have the best of both worlds (Relaxed and Texturized)... So b/c I am still relaxing the exact same way only processing a shorter time I just use the word relax...
But I promise to let you know if I change my mind and go back to relaxing bone straight..

  • The request for self relaxing video has been heard... A while back I had recorded a self relaxing video and was going to market it but for several reasons I decided not to... But once I get back to the norm I'm going to go ahead relax and record it for you tube .. So look for that soon

  • I am not using the Black Tea Rinses right now... Only b/c I don't feel like the extra step Lol... But if my shedding comes back I will go back to using the rinses again because they really worked for me

Vent and Venting More

All I  wanted to do is put my hair in a high bun... I'm taking the kids today to a amusement park and I wanted to wear  my hair up..Is that really too much to ask for.... Between my texlaxed, new growth and relaxed hair it was the hardest thing to do .... My new growth is kickin and its like my texlaxed hair is following suit..Like I'm being tagged teamed or something.... It took me about 30 mins or more to get my hair gathered neatly into a bun... Arms tired... Everytime I would think I would have it there would be some ugly lump somewhere ...Oh and why did I have a bright idea to use water to help slick my edges down... Those edges shrunk up and made getting my hair up in that pony even harder..Its time to relax ... I'm going to prep my hair for relaxer in a couple of days and relax next week..

I have to back track in my blog to find out when my last relaxer was.. I know it was in Nov. sometime... To be honest I really don't care how many weeks that makes me ... I can't fight with this hair not another day..

Ok I'm done venting....
