One Month In

I am one month in to my 6 mmonth hair challenge that I am attempting with Health Hair and Body, I am so proud of myself.  I think it has been easy since my hair is now long enough to twist and pin up or clip into a ponytail.  I am also enjoying not having to figure out what to do with it on a daily basis, since the weaher is now crazy and rain is in the forecast at least twice a week this is working great.
I have not changed the routine and when I wash I stick to the same products, no buying "just to see", but that is a whole other challenge.
I might have mentioned this before but oh well, I have been shampooing every two weeks and retwisting every week to keep it fresh.
Here is the style for this month, yes I said month cause again it keeps me from thinking to hard about the next style.

Sorry about the towel in pic :(


Have a Happy Hair Day!!

Third week of Challenge

Today starts my third week of my challenge and so far so good.  I decided to wash every two weeks cause that just works for me.  I keep it twisted for the week and wear a twist out on Saturday to retwist on Sunday and moisturize throughout the week.

I washed and retwisted last night, it was definitely time for some water to hit my hair.  I have been using a pre poo mixture that my hair has been loving,  I can tell the difference with it.  I tried a new hair style for the next two weeks, how ya like??
I wasn't trying to make the parts too perfect cause nobody would see it.
So proud of my hair growth!!!

And here is it all twisted  and pinned up, I think this styled 
turned out really cute, unfortunately this won't be 
coming down for a twist out  this weekend
but I will freshen the twists up on Sunday.
I will once again use my aloe vera juice and oil blend and shea butter mixture for that.
I will do another challenge update in two more weeks so stay tuned...

Hair Challenge

I know everyone does a hair challenge all the time but do you really stick with it (with a shoulder shrug)???  I'm about to try, just got through my first week and it was very simple, partly because we had rain and and it needed to be put up.  This challenge was right on time cause my straight natural had come to an end after 5 weeks.  I decided to follow Healthy Hair and Body's blog challenge for the next 6 months, the biggest challenge for me will be just sticking to the challenge itself, especially when the Spring comes and I feel urge to wear my twist out, ok maybe I will do that occassionally.
Anywhoooo, I retwisted last night using a spritz mixture of aloe vera juice, jojoba oil, carrot oil, olive oil, and glycerin then my shea butter mixture over that, twists turned out great. Oh and I also detangled with my new favorite item the Tangle Teezer, I had given up on the Denman long time ago, I think it was doing some damage to my hair.


It's long enough where I don't have to make 
the twists bigger and pin them up.
