Ramblings

I haven’t done a wash day post in a few weeks but I have been keeping up with my wash days. There are times when I have gone more than a week between wash days but it was not intentional. Most times I wash my hair so late I go to bed with it damp.

My Organic Root Stimulator moisturiser is no longer working. All it does is leave my hair greasy. I have been trying to find a better moisturiser for years; this has been my go to moisturiser long before I started my healthy hair journey. I kept going back to this moisturizer because nothing else seems to work. Once I finish what I have in stock I will not be repurchasing. My hair loves thick moisturizers so that has been my main problem in finding a moisturiser. I have purchased a few natural/organic ones to try; we’ll see how that goes.

People are starting to tell me crap about my hair again. I’m starting to get remarks like “your hair grows fast” or “your hair is long!” and one of the best “you are mixed” my answer to that is and always will be: the only place I’m mixed is under my arm and down there! Believe me when I tell you my genes are not the cause, it’s waxing! lol I used to get these sorts of remarks in the past and I would always be irritated, I eventually stop trying to correct people. I get even more irritated now knowing what I know but some people believe what they want to no matter what. Imagine my hair is shoulder length and people calling it long o_O everyone has their definition/idea of long hair and I respect that but I never considered my hair long even before my hair disaster. Let me explain, I grew up in a predominantly East Indian community so long hair was hair down to the centre of your back, touching your butt and beyond, hence my notion of me just having “ok” length hair back then. Not short but ok lol I knew nothing of APL, BSL, MBL, etc. so to me it was just an ok length.

The last time I took my vitamins was probably a month or more ago. One day turns into one week and one week turned into a month plus. Just like that! Sticking to vitamins is like sticking to exercising for me; once I stop it takes a lot of strength and determination to start again. Anyone else have that problem?

I have spent way too much on hair related products last month and this month so it’s time for a ban, that’s going to apply to nail polishes and nail related products also. I have acquired quite a nail polish collection over the years, I am ashamed to write, many of which I have only used once or never even used at all. My little challenge for next month is not to buy any hair or nail related product. So that means I have 10 days to get all I think I need! Heheheheh Don’t judge me, it’s my hair and nails fault! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!

How is your hair journey going?
What do you say to people who make remarks similar to the ones I mentioned above?
