I Heart Curls...So Here We Go

Frustrated but Hopeful

This past week and a half has been frustrating regarding my hair. Last week when I washed and conditioned my hair felt like straw! I didn't change my method or my products, but some days my hair just feels stripped. It's already so dry, but usually after I've let the conditioner sit for a while it starts to soften and moisturize. Not this time. It's like the conditioner wasn't really penetrating the hair. I even but a repair leave-in balm later, which helped a bit. I just hate it when it feels horrible and I haven't even stepped out of the shower.

To me, conditioning is the best part because it's so good for my hair and I can feel it working. I co-washed again this morning and had the same experience. Fortunately, my conditioner ran out and I'm scheduling a hair appointment this weekend, so I will get some new products as well. The new cut and the new products should help. I need a manageable cut and good products as I continue growing it out.

All in all, I love my hair. It's thick and essentially durable. I can wear most styles I'd desire to wear. I'm excited about the potential of my natural hair, in all it's craziness. =) So let's go.
