Protective Style—-FAIL!

In case you don’t already know, my protective style did not last long :-( . I was planning on letting my hair stay up in the twists, but it didn’t quite work out that way. I ended up taking them down Saturday and doing a twist-out. My twist-out was an absolute #FAIL! I know now that with the length of my hair, doing a twist-out from mini-twist is not my “cup of tea”. If you like the tight curly look, then it will work for you, but I will be doing chunky twist for now on if I have any thoughts of doing a twist-out on them.

Soooooo Yea, it was a definite FAIL! I am so disappointed.

I admit! I have a problem with wanting to play in my hair. I can’t keep the same style for too long. I love versatility!

WHAT DO YOU USE FOR YOUR SUMMER SPRITZ?

Summer time is not only the most relaxing time of the year, but one of the hottest. Having naturalhair you don’t have to worry about ” sweating your relaxer out”. This is the first time I get to rock my naturalhair in the summer with some length. Last summer I had just did the BC, and it was fairly easy maintaining my TWA in the summer. All I had to do was spritz & go. Now that my hair is longer it takes a little bit more work. My hair sucks up all the moisture it can, so I have to spritz it multiple times throughout the day. My main priority is eliminating frizz & shrinkage. These last few weeks I have learned that my hair does not like water-based moisturizers during this time of year. It gives my hair mad shrinkage & it leaves it wanting more moisture. Lately I’ve been trying different spritz to use on my hair to see what works the best. I have several different summer spritz that I use for my naturalhair, but below I will list the one that I use the most:

Distilled Water Liquid Leave-In Conditioner Vegetable Glycerin Jojoba Oil Tea Tree Oil

This is best to use on “my” hair for wash n gos. Everyone’s hair is different & it takes different products to make your hair cooperate the best.

What do you use for your summer spritz on your naturalhair?

You may be worried by how things are turning out, but you’ll be in better shape than you think if you can let go of your inflated expectations. Your recent growth spurt is coming to an end now that opportunistic Jupiter has left your sign. You’ll still be able to make changes and even increase your income, but you need to start practicing some self-restraint. Concentrate on delivering what’s already been promised, instead of dreaming up a whole new set of schemes.–via twittascope
