64 weeks.

I have left this blog for quite a while (over a year I think) but now I am back! I almost basically have everything together with school and work and everything. I have many hair updates that will appear in the coming days and weeks, because I have been buying products and trying new styles, taking pictures, trying new products, etc., but I just haven't been posting about it. Not even on the Curly Nikki forum (I'm under Pwatem).

So my update so far is that I am 64 weeks into my long-term transition. I haven't trimmed my hair or done any major cuts (as you can see in the previous post) since then. I'm really focusing on retaining length at this point. Once in a while I can't think of anything to do with my hair and I want to grab some shears and BC so badly, but I think about my super bun (pictures will appear soon), and I hold out.

I have recently, and by recently I mean 2 days ago, discovered my perfect regimen and product combination for my hair.

For in the shower:
  • Aussie Moist
  • J/A/S/O/N Biotin Shampoo
  • Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine
  • Aussie Smooth
  • HE Hello Hydration
  • South of France Shea Butter Bar

Styling:
  • Cantu Shea Butter Leave-in Conditioner
  • Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition
  • Garnier Cream Gel
  • EVCO
  • Smooth n' Shine Curl Activator Gel
I have replaced Fantasia IC gel with Smooth n' Shine and it is amazing. I have read a lot of hype about Fantasia and I used it for a long time, but it just doesn't do what I want it to. I have no beauty supply store near me, so I have to rely on what Target or Walmart for most of my products. When I go home next weekend I'm going to live in the beauty supply store.

I also recently made a lot of purchases of organic and natural up-keep and cleansing products.
for a total of about $40 I got:
  • rosewater
  • glycerin
  • essential oils of peppermint
  • essential oils of lavender
  • jojoba oil
  • biotin capsules
  • aloe vera juice
  • soap nuts
I just have to get a measuring container thingee (wow my descriptive English is terrible) for the soap nut liquid, and a spray bottle for my other mixture.
I ordered everything a few days ago, so I hope everything gets here early next week.

Ok I think this post is long enough, so... bye.
