Monthly Review #31

I have been thinking lately that my hair was not nearly as nice as it was in college. I watched a video of me and just thought it's not nearly as full and curly and lucious as it was back then. Then I was doing something in my room when my eye caught the swing of my hair in the mirror and I realized it doesn't look as full but cause I still don't have that much hair!

Anyway - my hair has started to look really lovely after I started using Function of Beauty shampoo and conditioner; custom soap based on your hair and your hair goals. It's taken a while to work; the first couple washes my hair was not so happy. But now it looks good! But I also have started using an Invisibobble style hair tie - that works so much better than I would have expected. See the pictures below and it never makes a crease in my hair. I quite like it.

   

Monthly Review #30

Shooooot I am really late with this. To be fair I had many days without a laptop during this lateness. But anyway. This month I did two things differently. #1 I changed shampoo (AND conditioner!) but I'll review that next month because I only used it twice in month 30. #2 I got a blow out at Arrojo cosmetology school in tribecca. It was sweet and lasted like 7 days between washing! Unfortunately I only took a picture of it at like day 6 when the body had drooped. But it was funny to have straight hair for a few months and to see people unable to recognize me from behind or to look startled when they saw me.

Pictures!

Monthly Review #29

Oh no...this just crept up on me. I have like no photos of this month. Dammit.

Well what can I TELL you? It was an easy month in terms of styling - I definitely can't JUST airdry in the mornings - it gets all flat and weird. But I can half blow dry or sleep on it wet. I like both of those. And I have been rocking all sorts of half ponies. I like the one that's just the top of my hair, far back on my head best - you can see this in the final photos below. It's doing such nice waves sometimes! I am still analyzing exactly what I can do to encourage those. I haven't had to use the cocoa powder almost at all! it's been weird how well my hair has kept up.

My hair feels really long - I keep catching sight of it in a mirror in a different angle and doing double takes - it's like down my back and looks like so much hair. I love it. But the split ends - especially from the back of my neck - are too much. I'm trying to snip them off one by one. I will prevail!


I said LIKE no photos....I do have some, and my selfie game is getting stronger as the hair gets longer:
