challenge bandwagon
Hey, guys. I just joined another challenge. This one goes for 6 months, and yes, I kept up with the no cutting challenge. This one is the ghe, or greenhouse effect.
It works different ways depending I'd you are natural or relaxed. I'm debating if I even want to keep relaxing, so I figure this is a good way to find out. I'll be following the natural ladies method, which is plastic cap/bag, scarf, and winter hat. I typically sleep in my winter hat, anyway, but adding the kher two is a nice addition.
What you do is either spray your hair with a bit of water and then seal with oil, or just use the oil. I am finding that I must cut back on the water, and I use evoo. Never oil your scalp, or you'll block the sebum and defeat the purpose.
You also have to know your growth rate to see if this method actually helps. Mine us typically 1/4 inch a month. Some ladies are achieving half to a full inch. I'm hoping, obvs. for a full inch by this time next month.
But I'm looking for more protective styles. I lime Bantu knot outs, but my arms, yo. I just did bigger bantus last night, and I like the looser curls. Yesterday, someone asked if I nust let my hair go wild. I had to explain to the poor (Caucasian) girl that I have never seen my natural hair, and that I had to curl it to achieve the look I got yesterday.
Tafn :D

Tossing all my makeup!!!?!?!?!?
Yep. You read that right. I'll be tossing my makeup soon enough. But only to make rom for quality products, more lenses, and things like that. I want to improve my appearance, and while its possible to do that with cheap makeup/no lenses, the style I want requiresenses and I've always wanted to experiment with them anyway. Also, you get what you pay for in regards to makeup. While none of mine cause me to break out (my poor diet does that once in a while to remind me that I really shouldn't eat slvertain things, and at the very least, I should consume them in moderation.) Now, other aspects of my appearance can't be bought with mo et, and I did dedicate this year to a new beginning. I'm five months behind, so I need to kick it in gear.
That's all for now, lovies. I'll be more regular soon, hopefully. And no, I'm not just saying that...

Spa Sisters Pore Brush Review and Mini Face Care Routine
sorry it's been so long since I've posted here, but it's been a rough few weeks. I was going to post about that, but I figure it's better to not publicize too much, as that could aggravate the situation, so I found something I could do. A little bit of a review after a few weeks hiatus. I've really been wanting to do more, but aside from work, school finally ending, and a bunch of other stuff, I've just been really busy. Aside from not knowing what I want to do with my blog/vlog, really, my blog is the place I would come to for venting, as you guys well know, but maybe I can try and keep it down to a minimum. I figured out what I want to do now, at least with my vlog, and I would do some of those things here, but I'll talk more about that later.
Some of the things I reviewed in this video, just so you know what you're getting, or in case you won't be able to watch it are the Spa Sisters Pore Brush, Skin Milk, Mary Kay's Timewise products (but only the night solution and the 3 in one cleanser, a clean and clear astringent (I forgot to mention it in the vlog, lol), and my homemade sugar scrub. I apologize for it being so dark, I thought with the sun and me turning the light on it would be brighter, but I had all of the light behind me, so...there you go.
Anysnooch, I hope you guys enjoy it. ^_^

hair care update ^_^
Hey, I know none of you are aware that I changed my hair care routine, I was seeing a lot of breakage and was of course displeased by this.
so I went no heat. the first time, I liked my results for the first day, then I went back to bunning (I think I was in a bunning challenge and forgot about it, but I typically bun my hair every day anyhow.)
I made these little mini buns by twisting my hair and they would curl up into spirals when my hair was dry (I also used ample conditioner and coconut oil to moisturize.) But it's happened again, and now it's worse. some of my hair dredded up, well, nearly, anyway.
so now, I'm gonna try something different. I'll only use one heat method, and that'll be my blow dryer. Idk about getting it super straight, but I don't care too much about that right now. puffy is good.
Now, I have to head in to class :P
moar updatez laterzzz.

ermahgerrrdddddzzzzz and junksss.
honestly, I still don't know where "ermagerd" came from, but that's irrelevant...I think...
Anyshooch, these workout classes and work ahve been killing my free time, well, obviously, but it's not like I've minded too much. I just wish I could have been blogging to you all more frequently. Also, it's hard to vlog when I dont' feel like I have anything to talk about. Nothing happens at work, really, school is ...school, except for that run, we all got lost and ended up having a longer run than we were supposed to . we guestimated that it was like 3-4 miles when it should have been "a little more than 2.2", since that's how long our last run was. It didn't hurt that much, or anything, and I surprised myself by completing it so fastly, and catching up with the rest of my class, but it got done, and I'm proud.
well, anyway, I've also been in a not so great mood because I found out that another family member went and died. aparrently, I don't get sad anymore. I just get mad...
but also, I think people have been getting too sensitive.
like, there's this new girl at work (I wish they would stop hiring new people and just give regulars more hours, but whatever), she told me that she didn't know how to do this one thing that I'm good at, but the manager guy sent her to do it anyway, and I sorted clothes. later, he comes back, we are extremely backed up because a of all) she's incredibly slow at this thing I do really fast, and b of all) she has these ridiculous nails on, and she keeps complaining about them. I ask him if I can have her room so I can do this thing because she even told me that she didn't know how to do it, and we're backed up, and he's all "no, I'll just help her", after shushing me because what I said might have hurt her feelings. I told him that she's the one who told me, and everyone is being too sensitive around here. - Once I've been somewhere too long, I stop caring about what comes out of my mouth to a point, but people really do need to grow a pair around that place, and by "people" I mean him...
so, anyway, that was the same day I found out. My mom has a magical habit of telling me these things RIGHT THE FUCK BEFORE I HEAD IN TO WORK. THANKS, MOM.
...see. angry, not sad.
thatisall.

The Goon(ie)s
I know, I'm terribly sporadic with my blogging, but I finally have something for you guys.
yesterday, after gym class, I was minding my own business, talking to my friend, and this woman comes up to us asking if we'll cuss someone out for her since we were both apparently "cussing pretty good".
Then she proceeds to tell us that she's not good at cussing people out, so she had her daughter do it, and one of her friends, even. Some woman has been texing her really long paragraphs since six in the morning (things I genuinely don't give .26ths of a rat's ass about), and that she'd have just gone over and beaten the woman up.
Then she asks again if we'll do it. we both say no, but she's no listening, oh no. she's already pulling the woman's number up in her phone, giving me a script of what she'd want to say (but can't), and now the phone is dialing "pig"...really? she doesn't even get a real name? so she puts the phone up to my ear, and all I hear is "hello...hello? ... hello?"
I start apologizing to the woman and tell her that it's the wrong number (meaning I've dialed the wrong number, not her, of course), and the original woman takes her phone back. Except now, she and my friend are making fun of me for saying "it's the wrong number"...
BITCH, you're the one who wanted to call her, not me. I even told you I wouldn't cuss her out.
1) I don't know the woman who bothers you,
2) she's never done anything to me
and 3) you are the same bitch who punched me in the back during this friend's dance class for absolutely no readon other than that you decided to stand directly behind me and don't know how to say "excuse me"...
FUCK NO I'm not helping you out. you can hide behind your goons all you want, I'm not one of them.
and Friend? I didn't exactly see you jump up to help this dumbass. You don't get to laugh. At all.
yup...that's about it. Now I"m off to work, but things have been getting really slow there, which makes me sad. I just hope they aren't sending people home early, but it's the weekday, and they generally do send people home early...so...good luck to me, I guess.
