lol! Trust me, I love and admire the strength of my temple often love, and I try to take great care of it because it has taken great care of me and has given life to my munchkins. ;-)
I tend to get the nursing/nurturing blues now that all of them are older, I miss them being babies and want another one. Hubby aint having it though. haha.

I need to do the same. Little things like deep conditioning right now r making me feel like I ain't totally neglecting myself tho.
Girl i love brushing/combing straightened hair.

6 kiddos? I envy you! I want a large family one day. But bae is like,
:idkb3: You are on your own with that!
I need to look into henna myself. The tattoos are especially interesting cause I am otherwise not down with a permenantly tattoo. Knowing myself I just know I would have buyer's remorse the minute I get off the table.

r u going to compromise or is he on a ticking clock now b?
For henna, r there Indians or Middle Easterners near u? Get a tube from where they get their ethnic food n hit YouTube girl! If places near u ain't got it, eBay n Amazon will.
It's still not all out of my hair but feels so smoooove n well behaved.Awwww. You sound so fresh and happy!
I'm glad girl lolll, fr. And I was an inspiration?

I used to want no kids but my mind changed. I know some ppl whonended up wanting fewer kids after they became parents n saw how exhausting it was too tho. Life has its own plans sometimes!
One day I will accept that braids are no longer for me. Til then I'll keep wasting my MFN money!!
i guess this is the proper place but need some advice ladies
im currently rocking a curl sponged high top fade. The problem is its getting too high for the sponge to work the way it was intended. I mean, yea, it still curls, but i want a different look.
Tried to do the 2 strand twists, but either i did something wrong or my hair was too short at the time so it didnt come out like i wanted. Its much longer now, but i still dont think its long enough to twist...idk...im rambling

have you tried braiding? you can get a curl look, not just a crinkle
i saw a couple of youtube videos on self braiding, but i just couldnt grip my hair, but i know its long enough to grip b/c i can part it and it will stay split if i use a clamp. My hands are too clunky, but thats the look i want...curly
i hate even typing this, but i've looked at videos on youtube under "thot boy hairstyle"...ugh...but yea...thats the look im going for...why they gotta be a damn thotboy tho...
i'ma put it in a spoiler b/c these new niggas upset me, but something like this...my hair isnt as long, but you get the idea
my hair is probably the length of this dude...maybe a tad shorter

I know girl. I like it in pics but I know it'd annoy me IRL. the drama of it looks cool tho!
@AP21 thot boy lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I like the look tho. If your hair is the length of the second vid, you should be able to braid it. practice makes perfect. I haven't tried 2 strand twists like @Blactivity recommended but she knows a LOT about hair so I wld trust her suggestion.
yea...cant think of it right now
@BNE, well i did try when it was a lil shorter, and it took me forever to do them lol
when i undid them, idk, maybe my hair wasnt long enough or something, but they didnt look anything at all like i had hoped they were. I understand different textures of hair plus the combination of different products are going to give various results, but i looked cray

The products make a big big difference. I'd bet that's what it is. Don't use too many at once, experiment n see which product makes your hair behave in a way that cooperates with braiding/twisting.
When I braid or twist my hair, it looks wildly different depending on whether my hair was damp or dry when I started n what product I used. Isolate the factors n see what was up. I doubt it was the braiding or twisting itself not working for u.

Yea...
We all have dif textures so what might work for one group, may be a disaster for another.
Some of us have to do less steps, more steps to achieve a look. It's basically manipulation. Product counts too.
Do you do your hair wet or dry?
