Frustrated.........
I am frustrated with my hair . Its just not growing. GRRRRR! It almost feels like it is in some state of dormancy. My TWA is making me lose my patience. I can't do seem to do anything with it. I even quit twisting it to reduce breakage.
So, I decided to get some help. I went the Natural Alternatives Salon to get a consultation concerning my hair. It was the best move ever. The staff were awesome and the stylist taught me valuable information concerning what to use and what not to use for my hair. One thing that I learned was not to get into the hair steamer hype. I learned that steamers stretch and straighten the hair later thinning it out in the long run. I also learned that it is best to check who you buy your Jamaican black castor oil from since many makers use die instead of the actual healthy ingredients.
I also learned about my hair. I have four different grades of hair and that although I had an astonishing amount of growth, my front section near my fore head was growing slowly. I didn't know whether this was from breakage or just slow growth, but I would need a shape up. Also, I have very "fine" hair. My hair wasn't as fine two years ago, actually, it was very thick. But now that I am older, it is now fine.
I made an appointment in two weeks. I am excited. I took the opportunity to get my hair shaped up by a barber so that it can grow out evenly by the time I go for my hair appointment. Actually, the hair cut did me some good because it seemed my hair was acting zany because it needed a trim..BADLY. I tell yah, I hated that I had to cut my hair, but I love it that it is going to grow back healthier and thicker.
Well, Peace of Christ and good night readers.
