Length check

Four month growth,na so!

Growth

Ok,as much as I'm stoked that my hair is growing at the rate it is,I would really like to state that ; IF YOU LEAVE IT ALONE,IT WILL GROW!
(Sorry for screaming,lol)
Let me explain,
Too much of ANYTHING is bad and never yields good results.
I do have a regimen(finally) after months of trial and error and finding out what works and how to tweak what doesn't.
I do take tips from all my natural hair big sisters but I put my own twist on it and its working. And I have learned that monitoring my growth will not make my hair grow,it'll only breed frustration.
Since I realized this,this journey has been going a lot more easy.
I decided to love and embrace every stage of my length journey. As someone said,"It's a journey not a competition.
That said,happy growing!

Braid outs

Hi there.
So I'm at this awkward stage of my twa(teenyweenyafro) and my dears,it's not easy. It's bordering in frustration for me and sometimes,I want to shave my head(hubby will kill me) but I'm motivated by others' journeys so I'm not giving up yet.
Incidentally, I found what works for me at this awkward stage and it is braid outs.
It's faster for me to braid up my hair at night than any other style.
Recently,I had a friend of mine do full cornrows that lasted me a week and I took them out at the weekend and rocked it. It was beautiful and stretched my hair beautifully!
So,for now,my go to style is braid outs till I gain some more length. Ciao

On Length Checks

So,I have decided on doing less length checks because it kind of takes away the fun from the journey and it really isn't necessary to do regular length checks because I know my hair is growing.
I also want to just concentrate on the health o my hair more and how it reacts to different products or recipes. Ciao!

Eco Styler

Ok,quick one.
So,I found the Evo Styler Edge and Style Control in a store by my house!
I was so excited. It's not the normal Rxo Styler I've been reading about from every hair blogger or vlogger in the US but I think there's hope and I am thinking of speaking with the store manager too.

So,here's what my hair looks like after using the gel on my hair today.

Nigerian attire

Please, I'm tired of trying to explain myself.
I'm a jeans and t-shirt person. I do clean up every now an then. I'm not partial to Nigerian attire because I'm so uncomfortable in them,I feel awkward in them and…it's just not me.
I have kind of a boyish shape. If I wasn't overweight,I'd have no boobs,no hips and no booty.
I try,I really do to put on Nigerian attires and then,I can't wait to take it off.
I don't hate them,I just don't like how uncomfortable and restraining they are and for my body type,just don't look good on me. So there! Rant over.
