Still Transitioning!!

Well I am a little over 11 months post and I'm still transitioning. I can't believe it but I know that this time I will stay natural for sure. I have thoughts about just chopping it off right now. I still have to wait until I am a full year post because I have twists in. I think about taking them down early. Who knows maybe they will be out by the end of the week. I really want to start my journey to become natural. the only thing that makes me hold back is the fact that I have MEGA shrinkage. 1 year post may only look like 2-3 inches when fully shrunken. So I have been doing research on naturals that keep their hair stretched via twist/braid outs. I'll be baaaack.

Pleasant Sounds

So today I looked in my tea rinse powder jar and noticed I needed to refill it. So today is a nice day I open up my windows and go to the cabinet to get the herbs I need. Well as I was doing this I heard some flute music. I was like is someone blasting this in their house? No, it was coming from my window. The way the blinds were hitting against the screen made this beautiful flute music sound. I thought why not take advantage of this music and I decided to use my mortar and pestle to grind my herbs. I was just going put them in whole but while I grinded them I focused in my mind that this is going to nourish and help my hair to grow longer and stronger. I just know this mix is good. Here is my recipe:

1/2 tbs Brahmi
1/2 tbs Gotu Kola
1 1/2 tbs Bhringaraj
1 tbs Triphala
1 tbs Amla
1 tbs Shikakai

Use one to one half dessert spoon for your tea rinse.

Well here's what I'm gonna do

Okay so it has been a while, yeah people get caught up with life. I've been missing for a while, but hey everything is okay. Well when I relaxed my hair there was a lot of texture left I felt bad about doing it but now I'm sticking with it. It working out with me. People still think I am natural. I had my last relaxer on Dec 06 2008 and I don't plan on getting another one until May. So yeah about a six month stretch. I am about 14 weeks post now, and its going oookay. SO because of this I'm transitioning this blog into a hair journal like thing. I mean of course whatever products I am trying or want to try I will talk about them. But overall this will just be a space for me to rant and my hair. No more trying to make 2-3 posts per day. I will just try to post as I can, but no more 6 month breaks. HA HA HA. So tonight I am planning on twisting my hair if I don't decide to go to sleep. And I hope to post pics tomorrow.
