Hello world! I just want to give everyone a quick update. I’m pregnant and due Feb 6 2010 AND my husband and I both got promoted! The month of June has been a windfall of great news for us. I’ve been dead tired and I haven’t really had time to update the blog with school, work and the added pressure of being tired. I did try a new product (Beyond the Zone’s Noodle Head) and I like it a little. I’m still looking for something else to give me defined yet soft curls. This leaves my hair a little hard and it takes a while to dry. I have not tried Kinky Curly Curling Custard YET! I will one day. Most of the reviews on Youtube liked the product but it seems they mostly went back to using their old products since KCCC was so expensive. Anywho…I’m rambling on…I just wanted to share my news! I’ll update again soon! Keep Rocking the Natural!!

I know I promised to do a hair update a week ago but I have been extremely busy with life.  Today I finally sat down and gave twisting a second try.  Yes, the title is correct.  It took me nine stinking hours to do these twists, mainly because I was watching TV, on LHCF and browsing videos on YouTube.  The very first time I twisted my hair I was 2 months natural and it was…Ok.  Not a look I was ready for as I only had about 4 inches of hair.  My hair is currently 6.25 inches and my twists this time looked much better than before.  

I used raw shea butter to twist  and when it was all done I used aloe mixed with castor oil on my ends.  I twisted on dry hair.  To get the twists to lay where I wanted I also added the Aloe/Castor Oil mixed onto a few twists to shrink them up.  

Here are a few pictures.  I would have uploaded more but there is a space limit on the site now…

What’s good computer world? I’ve been busy as hell or lazy as hell and went MIA for a while. I”m back and there isn’t really much news to share.  I don’t really know where I’m going with this blog at all, may it be fashion, food, fun hell if I know.  What I do know is that at this moment 2 1/2 months natural, I’m geeked up about this hair shit.  Who would have thought hair would make a person so happy?

I’ll admit I was skeptical about this whole shrinkage shit, with your hair looking short and all beat up…but I love it right now. I almost never “pik” out my hair, I just choose to wear it in it’s shrunken state.  I finally got my muffin top back from those scissor happy moments I had at the begining of Month 2 and I’m glad to say that I’m on the grow.

I’m thinking my growth rate is about .25-.50 inches a month.  I’m at 4 inches stretched and my year end goal is collar bone streatched from the nape.  I aint trying to set my goals too high but I know I’ll be content and will focus less on growth once I reach shoulder length unstreatched or in shrunken state.

I know I aint got no damn readers…but if I do I hope yall is on da gro too.
