Where have I been?

So...I have been MIA for a couple of weeks.

Well for one a chick has been BUSY working 329749328749823 jobs and going to school. It's all good tho because MONEY COMETH! :-)

In regard to my hair....I have given my lovely mane a break and gotten a sew in.
I have a simple sew in with the perimeter and a horseshoe shaped portion in the front left out. I am planning to take this down and get reweaved up in November. Hopefully I can weave it up until sometime in 2010. I am DETERMINED to have long hair come Summer 2010. I will be inching my way to Brastrap August 2010 and Midback by January 2011. Weave....please be my friend.

Pictures to soon follow. :-)

Replacement for My Beloved Kinky Curly Curling Custard

Hello all!

For those of you that follow, you know that I have had a love hate relationship with KCCC lately.
Somtimes KCCC can produce perfect silky spiral curls for me....other times it produces a stringy sticky mess. I recently tried Kinky Curly Curling Custard on my twist out and was quite pleased with the results.

Even before I purchased KCCC, I always got good results with Eco Styler gel with Infusium 21 leave in under it. Well the problem with this was I always ran out of Infusium SUPER fast and it was a chore to keep some in my closet. So I strayed away from this...

Well after reading naturally curly I read about Long Aid Curl Activator and how awesome it was....so I gave it a try. TOTAL bust. My hair felt SUPER greasy...and my curls did not clump at all..

Well recently I was reading on naturally curly that someone puts long aid curl activator on their hair BEFORE EcoStyler Clear. Well I have always used the brown Eco Styler....So I FIRST tried the clear Ecostyler alone....HATED IT.
Next I tried another curl activator under the brown eco gel.....It looks good. I was pleased...

Well yesterday I picked up MORE long aid curl activator and did the following:
Washed in shower with Aussie Moist
Put about .50(two quarters in palm) worth of Aussie MOist in my hair as a leave in...
Then put .75 of Long aid Curl Activator in hair
Pulled .75 of Clear Eco Styler gel thru my hair

Results...
Perfect Ringlets and awesome smelling hair!
It looks REALLY similar to when I first tried KCCC and it is MUCH cheaper. If you like KCCC and need something cheaper or you are out and can not order right away...this combo may work for you.

I will try it a few more times then include some pictures...

The Braid out/Twist out Drama continues

So, I have pretty much master the braid out/twist out...but EVERYTIME I try to wear it to the office it is busted.

I am SO distraught today...
A whole day of ugly hair.

Can't wait to get home and redo on dry hair...

Loving my curls **Pics added**




So....I washed out my press.
It was nice...but pressing takes some of the bulkiness out of my hair that flat ironing leaves.

I did a twist out and I LOVE it.

Here are a couple of pics...The pic in the blue is the second day hair! :-)
