So I have damaged my hair really bad.
I have been dying it and pressing it...and dying it.. and pressing it.
SO NOW
My hair is absolutely fcked. I would take a photo but its so disgusting, I dont want my blog to get flagged for it.
SO HERE IS THAT PLAN:
I learned about "curl ambassadors" via the radio, and it turns out there is a salon in my region! TORONTO!! Woot!
Okay, so I have made an appointment. I am hella scared, however they have gotten tons of grat testimonials so I am hoping it is better than my expectations....which are very low.
I am doing a full on HAIRCUT. As in.. basically big chopping again. But because I can never get enough colour, I am going to to a cut and colour. Yes. Indeed.
I will get my sister to follow me or something and record it.... lol. Cause there are absolutely NO haircuts on youtube for females of this hair type.
we shall see what is in store for me.
So, the above picture of Kelis is what I am going for. So
AFTER SEEING THIS CHICK... I have decided to re-start my journey to actually growing my hair. As in:
Eating healthy
Drinking more water...
Trimming my bloody ends
Locking in moisture.
Taking proper care of what goes in it
I am taking this to a whole NOTHA LEVEL!
Starting next week or this holiday when I am not so extremely busy. lol
I put my hair back a lot due to lack of time to style it... and I mostly do braid-outs
I had a lacefront for a week but hated it... the wind was too much for me! I used to do bantu-knot outs.... but the time it takes to do it is too much for me lately... so... yeah.
I really need to dust my ends, or do a full on TRIMMING! I haven't trimmed since August! -___-
That is all.
Started school...
but i have time to talk!
check out mah new youtube channel. still going to be talking about hair... just alongside young adulthood and being on a budget...
Sometimes guys can be dumb. That goes without saying... but I want to tell you about my experience today (for the ump-teenth time)...
So it took me like 2 days (approximately) to take out the braid extensions! Ughh. When I was done I looked at myself and was a little worried about things because I was used to the braids and how much everyone liked it. But as you know I want to try out those Aveda products and let my hair have some spotlight for a while... so I was just going to deal with it.
Usually, even after I went natural, I had really high self-esteem and confidence in myself. I knew I wasn't the BEST LOOKING GIRL IN THE UNIVERSE, but I was alright with me and I knew I had things a lot of girls would love to have and I took pride in it. But I was also humble about it too. So you know.... I never had a constant need to re-assure myself that I was pretty. Unless I went out with friends, but even then I realized it was because I didn't stress slutty enough to get noticed. Haha.... uhh yeah.
So anyways.
I'm with my boyfriend and he calls me cute and the dreaded "hot" and "sexy" all the time... so I went ahead and asked if he'd still think so if we weren't together and he didn't know me as a person already. Now before I progress any further I WILL say that one of the things I love the most about my boyfriend is his honesty. However, the truth DOES hurt ... so I was just saddened by the truth...
So as you can imagine he said:
JV: No, I would think you were cute. But if you had your hair straightened I would wanna fuck you.
Moi: Hmm. Ok. So that's like me and your Abs..... ... Or lack thereof.
(heheheeeeeee take that bitch. )
---
But yeah he started talking about how he thinks girls with straight hair are "fcuking hot" and shit about :
JV: You don't date the hot girl, you date the cute girl.. cause they're the real girlfriend material"
So yeah... I got pissed off for sure. Cause as much as I love him, I want to ask these questions to make sure I have someone who doesn't need to focus on how "great" I look cause of my hair. I mean, he always says he doesn't care.. but then he talks about some girl's straight hair or some shit...and how "Guys always think straight hair is hot" .. which isn't always true, but whatever.
I don't know. Its just a self-esteem decliner for me. I am peeking on the best times of a persons life... and I am in a serious relationship while all my friends are single... so I want to make sure I am not wasting my time. I don't want to come home one day from NOT PARTYING ( like I couldn't have been doing today! My friends at the moment are at some sick Condo Rooftop Party.. -sigh- ) to find out he has cheated on me with some straight-haired broad because she had long flowing hair that he could sweep around and tug or whatever the fuck guys wanna do with that shit. Fuck man.
UGH!\\JNSFBCNSKIFSJKFKJSBLKVBLSHBVKSHBBVGUWIFHSIHJBCFKJSNWBFI923PUY

Fuck man.
I don't know, I guess I am just going through some issues. This is how I am without a job and money I guess. Hhaha.T__T
I dunno. I'm really pissed. I know he loves me regardless, but its just about... my life and how I am wasting my time here on earth. I cried soon afterwards... cause I thuoght of how other guys I were with treated my natural hair as a beautiful thing and never talked about my hair straight or anything. They just really want to see it grow. Haha, like they would really ask me to let it grow. Sometimes I think its cause they're black so they know more about what goes on than a white guy. My ex was happy I stopped perming my hair and altering it. My other guy friend had cornrows so we both related with hair and talked about hair together.
Its not like NATURAL HAIR IS MY LIFE. It's just that...if there is something / someone better for me out there I rather meet them and be on an everlasting conquest than stay with someone who can't fully think even with my fro that I am sexy.
Rant over.
Hey!
Today is the LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR!
..... and I have been awoken at 5:20AM -sigh- .
Welp, I hope everyone has some wicked plans for this summer, I'm pretty ssure my summer will be moderately fun for the most part. Going to a cottage for weekend its going to be my first time at Wasaga beach. So.. we'll see whats so great about it. I'll take photos if I can. Also, my evil grandmother from the states is going to staying in Toronto for a WHOLE MONTH. Ugh I wish I had a job to get away from the whole endeavor. Oh well.. you do what you do. I think my dad and sister know I am not too fond of the old lady so they aren't surprised by my sudden absence.
Enough about me and MY ISSUES!
Going to buy that stuff from my summer hair wishlist this weekend! ^_^
If I really like the results I will forget about putting my hair back in braids until September. The results I am looking for are curl definition and weight. I want my hair to have some more hang and less bunched-up-nesss. I also want some more curl definition and I did some searching and found that many naturals with my hair type recommended those Aveda products for 4b/4a hair.

I love love LOVE Be Curly! It's not my only hair product, but anytime I wear my hair in a wash/go style this is my product. My curls are super defined and lovely. I let it air dry and add a little oil. Definitely a product I'll never stray from.

The question is what you looking for? If you like crunchy curls this isn't your product. But if you love smooth curls, you got it!

| Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 18 | I recently just started using Aveda hair products and I'm absolutely in love! Yes, they are pricey but it's well worth it. One product that has worked fabulously is their Confixor liquid gel, which is vegan! I put it on my hair for twist outs and my goodness, I have like perfect mini spirals formed!!! I have tried countless gels and never got this results and there's hardly any crunch but the hold is great. Has anyone tried Aveda b4 and had success with them???? |

SO I AM UBER EXCITED TO THE MAX!
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER !!
Talk to yalls later
Great for hair inspiration for style savvy teens / young adults who dont want their natural hair getting in the way of their overall appearance. Instead we want to make the hair work with our style instead of against it.
VIST IT! http://naturalhairteens.tumblr.com/
I got a webcamera that's good quality.
So I decided to back into vlogging.
ENJOY... this is probably the best way to see me discuss hair
