so, i can't really call either of these two things "new" but i haven't done either of them in quite some time. i started going back to the gym tuesday, and am working on doing my own hair. yeah, no biggie to either right? lol wrong. i can be soooo lazy. im not one for motivating to do things, but once i get going, im pretty much a force.
after i got out of work on tuesday, i took my tail back to the gym. it felt GREAT!! i don't know what i was thinking, by stopping. im wasting my money by not showing up, and wasting money isn't something im fond of. im not sure how to use the machines, so i pretty much stick to the eliptical, and then do a lot of stretching. yesterday, i forgot my hair tie in the car and was NOT walking all the way back to get it. of course, no love from the black girl behind the counter in finding me a rubberband *unappologetic blank stare*, so i let in hang. by the time i got home, my hair was crimpled and poking in all the wrong directions. i sat down on the floor in front of the mirror and flat ironed my dry hair section by section. woke up the next am, looked as if i hadn't hit the gym at all. YAY. ME. =)
my next new little project is going to be researching hair care. i need to find out the best way for me to take care of my hair, on my own. the girl that does my hair is great, but if i can do it myself, why the heck not??!! the main reason behind me doing my own hair is simple. no one will take care of me the way i can (a personal life mantra of mine). in the interest of time, my stylist has used odee amounts of heat, and skimpped on time under the dryer with conditioner on. if i can get my act together, and learn to get my hair healthy again, on my own, ill be a happy lil camper. i've been relaxing my hair since i was in the 7th grade. i still remember going to get my hair done that day at the mall. i thought i was too cute lol. anywho, i've considered going natural a few times, but, i think i'll try to revive what i've got going first. currently, i have relaxed hair, with blonde highlighs. im a fan of health over length. i've been contemplating a cute short cut like this
im thinking ill start with something like this, then move to the short halle cut..... idk. im VERY indecisive. but, im thinkin, baby steps. if i do the megan good one below, theres room to move. but if i take the halle jump, im stuck, like it or not. here's the megan cut im contemplating
idk guys. what are your thoughts??
any hair blogs in mind? any suggestions? advice? talk to me boos!
It's pretty liberating to not to rely on your stylist. Over the years, I've practiced styles on my hair. The more you practice, the better you get. If you are thinking about a short cut, you may first want to consider baby steps. It may help you get used to the cut plus it is easier to practice upkeep with a little longer cut.
ReplyDeleteWhen I cut my hair youtube was very helpful. You can simply do a search for short cuts. There are a lot of youtubers with great tips.
Good luck!
thanks so much!! i def agree with you on longer hair being easier to manage. i had a bob a year ago and even that was a headache. Not sure if I'm ready for the even shorter cut - Megan OR Halle option. I think I'm going to use your youtube suggestion, and search for ways to revive what I currently have going on. The highlights took quite the toll. Thanks again!!
