Time seems to go by so fast when you haven’t blogged! On top of being busy, I haven’t really done too much with my hair.

Last week, I had a twistout for the entire week and this week my hair has been in a bun (my favorite bun), partially out of laziness and partially because it was supposed to rain all week. This is my favorite bun because it’s huge. Nothing exciting here.

On Saturday I’m supposed to go to see “A Streetcar Named Desire” on Broadway. I was trying to think of a cute hairstyle, but my creativity has left me.

Remember when I straightened my hair? Well, I made the mistake of putting gel in my hair the third week. My hairline hasn’t been the same since! Back to square one. Ok… maybe square two. It’s not as horrible as its been in the past, but it’s not great.

More details to come on what has me preoccupied…

My hair is still straight, as planned. It’s also growing a lot. The length isn’t much different, but keep it mind that it has been trimmed several times in between. Once I get rid of those pesky ssk’s, I’ll ease up on the trimming. For now, I’m more concerned with the health of my hair rather than the length. I know that if the health is there, the length will come.

My scalp is doing sooooo well. I stopped applying the conditioner to my scalp when I deep condition my hair. I only apply it to the ends. In addition, I stopped using leave in conditioner. It was just too much. Not only was my hairline breaking out in some sort of an inflammation/cradle cap situation, but right after I washed my hair, my scalp always seemed dirty still. When I parted my hair, there was literally white gunk on my scalp in certain areas. Since I’ve been using the Selsun Blue and I’ve changed my conditioning habits, I no longer have any of these issues. My scalp was just over conditioned. I can imagine that if my scalp wasn’t healthy, it affected my hair growth and health.

I’ve added a “Current Regimen” section at the top where I’ve listed my current regimen, including products I am currently using. I’ll be updating it as things change.

XOXO,
