Hair challenge update and midterms

Sooo, I have been veering off my schedule somewhat but overall I have been keeping up with my hair challenge. I am about to start twist outs next. This is one style I dread because I do not have very thick hair. But we will see!!!! Also going to try henna after I read through CurlyNikki's thorough information. I am considering red. This week I wore a mohawk using kinky curly in the middle and for the first time really liked the results now that my hair is getting a bit longer. I also found a protective style I really like and will try soon. Ill leave that as a surprise lol.


Midterms....ughh. Stats was a trying exam. Hope it went better then it felt. All Other classes went well though. Half way there!!! writing my scholarship essay this week. Hope its a winner. :)

Pre-poo options review 3-Aloe vera gel

Ok,

 So I haven't been sticking quite to my original plan with the pre-poo. I am low on honey right now so i'm going to try the aloe vera gel with jojoba oil and coconut oil ( and a few drops of rosemary). Updates tomorrow morning on how this goes.

I have been spraying my hair every couple days with my veggie glycerin spritz to bring back the life to my kinky curly curling custard finger coils. It really helps bring shine, and keeps my hair really really soft.
I also try to use castor oil on my roots at least two times a week. I know this is down from before, but now I am using the cold-press castor oil instead of the Jamaican Black Castor Oil mix. Since I am using this castor oil straight -too much gets too sticky.

I really think the Deep Conditioning has help my hair to start growing and the moisture is helping to retain length. I missed a Deep Co this weekend since I was out all weekend for homecoming. However my hair is fine and is just starting to look dirty so that's why I am doing my pre-poo early.

All in all I am enjoying life :) Midterms next week.....enough said. Presentation and speech tomorrow afternoon, then stats quiz at night. Time to get  my study on!

hair mood: happy and ready for a DC
