DONT DO IT!!!!!!!

I had some stuff going on and was feeling bad, but pulling my hair out made it worse.  As a woman my hair is important to me, just as it is to most women.  Ergo the old saying when you look good you feel good.  I think we all know what happens when you don't look good.

Base, I washed my hair, conditioned it, rinse the conditioner, put a shower cap and head wraps on and went to work.  I was looking cute too.  Oh but the drama that was going on up under that shower cap was not!

I finally sat down last night and decided to stay up and detangle and twist my hair.  Low and behold when I went to divide and conquer, I was reminded of the mess I dealt with when I big chopped.  YES, it was pretty bad.

It was late, I was tired, and feeling some kind of way.  I called my self getting back to my glycerin mix and using vaseline(of all things), but when your hair is a mess, that is no time to be trying something new.  I was literally pulling and ripping my hair in order to separate it and detangle sections.  I started getting really sad.

I added my aloe mix, put some conditioner in and tried to finger detangle (wrong term).  Then I would add glycerin, vaseline and went and got my Denman.  OH LORD!  It was coming out in big knots.  I know I have some broken and shorter than short strands, especially in the back and the crown where my hair is most sensitive.  

ARRRGGH!  I was up till 4am and still didn't finish.  So this morning I tried to complete the damage I had begun but this time I changed the combination.  I sprayed with the Aloe, finger combed a little, detangled with the denman, then added the glycerin, and then vaseline.  That was a little better actually.  

Why the vaseline you ask?  From listening to the story of a friend and then seeing how it did my daughters hair (whose texture, density, and thickness is way different from mine, it actually did good on her hair!)

I thought untill I get my shea butter I will try this.  This will be the last time (maybe, I have to see how the twist out turns out, twist and shout! Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on baby now!   Hey!

Random and stuck in a moment!

Anywho, I just hope my hair will rebound.  With color I have to be more careful and just take the time and do what I have to do. Had I just stayed up that night and finger combed and added my conditioners, I wouldn't have had to go through that awful experience of loosing sooooooo much hair.  I am too embarrassed to even show how much it was. 

Don't put off for tomorrow, what you can do today!  Especially in the name of beauty and hair.  EVEN IF IT MEANS LOOSING SLEEP!  LOL!

Moral of the story, please, Please (in my James Brown voice), finish your hair!
