End of HHJ Obsession/ Devotion

I've considered so many other areas of my life that could use this devotion. This is my goal deadline. I will have to purge all of my unused products and devote my time an energy to the betterment of another area of my life. MBL is my ultimate goal, but I have no idea where my hair will be come December 31, 2013. That will be five years of being hair obsessed.

No Posts In Awhile...Been Busy :(

I've moved to Alabama and I am still trying to get myself situated. Things have been happening so fast. I have so much stuff in storage including my usb cord for my camera. I have a few reviews that I want to post and lots of update pics. The skinny on my hhj thus far:

*Relaxed 6/16/10 with Silk Elements w/ Shea Relaxer-Regular. I really like the results. I may stick with this relaxer for awhile. I noticed that it did start tingling a little quicker than I'm used to but that could have been for many reasons. I had a three day old braid out in my hair when I was called in for an interview the next day so rushing I combed it out and did my relaxer. I was about 11wks post anyway so it was time. I could've just gotten away with a fresh wash and flat iron but oh well. I wont do that again, I i'll use proper pre-relaxer regimen.

* Length-hmmm, I am truthfully not sure. I have been very protective of my length since I've been down here. My brother keeps harassing me about straightening my hair and seeing the length. He is so anti-short hair that it is ridiculous so I'll let him believe what he wants to believe until I am ready to flat iron again which isn't often. Not to mention, I probably won't post as many length updates anyway. I want to be surprised also.

*Coloring-I have the itch again. I just can' get over it. I want to color my hair so bad!!! I saw a young lady the other day with beautiful tri-color highlights and she gave me the number to her stylists. I want them so bad. I will make an appt this month. I haven't colored for two reason, first I wanted to make sure I had a great length retaining regimen first and secondly, I didn't want to replace my top 5 fave half wigs because if color changes. It's so easy to blend my naturally black hair. Well I'm over it now. Life is too short. I'm getting highlights. I will definitely keep you all updated.

Oh and have you noticed. I am almost 5 months pj clean. Just using up what I have.

Yes, I am adjusting just fine. However, I have been wanting to color my hair so bad. I feel like a pop of color will look so cute in my textured styles and curls. I see your bodacious bun and I am inspired to keep on keeping on my hhj. Btw, hope you can get your husbands hair to loc the way you all want it to. I should probably post pics soon so that I can stay motivated.
