Essential Official Random Thoughts Thread (Ladies only)

[innocentdevil]

I co-washed twice. The first time my scalp was on fyah with the itchies and the 2nd time my hair felt weird.

I don't think I did it right. I really wanna like it because I sometimes want the look of washed hair and the smell and feel of freshly conditioned hair but I don't wanna spend 3 plus hours doing it.

You got any tips to share?

Try not putting the conditioner directly on your scalp, but still massage your scalp to loosen the dirt.

How come nobody stays in Florida here

I do

Have you ladies tried the press on nail polish strips?

Been seeing the commercials on tv and in clothing stores...I want to give it a try.

@ Olivia Pope I tried those nail strips and I really like them. I can't do acrylics on my nails because of my job so I can't get them done how I used to. I don't mind it tho, because it was fukking up my nails anyway. But back to the strips......they actually worked really well for me. They stayed on for about 2 weeks before they really started chipping off. They were super easy to put on too. I love um. And.....I use half a strip for 2 nails so that I have enough strips to give myself a mani/pedi with it and still have some left over just in case I fukk one up.

For the ladies with no fashion.......I was the same way

I'm a NY chick, so it was always straight all white uptowns, air maxs, timbs and jordans with jeans and a tee........gold chain, and my door knockers. I've only recently started to dress more "girly". I wear a lot of shorts now that I live in FL and summer dresses. I've been trying to use pictures online for inspiration and trying to think outside the box when I go shopping now. It's paid off pretty well.....I get a lot of compliments on my new styles.

The only thing I need to work on now is trying to wear heels. I see so many fly shoes that I like, but I don't get because they hurt my feet so bad. I don't even try anymore because it's not worth the pain. Flats and sandals for me.

I'm glad someone feels my pain. All I know is, I'm not going no where this weekend until this rats nest is tamed. No matter how good I feel I look, if my hair and my eyebrows aren't right, I feel disgusting

I mix honey, olive oil and JBCO into aussie moist conditioner each week to make a deep conditioning treatment.

My hair always feels soft and smells like cotton candy & green jolly ranchers

I usually pre-poo 1st with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) I also only do the apple cider vinegar every 3 months because I cannot take the stench. But, it does leave me hair looking magically delicious ;)
