I know you’re giving me the side eye right now for having yet another relaxer day post for you guys. I mean, what do I think this is…a RHOA reunion? lol. But please don’t throw tomatoes at me, lol. A lot happened with my last relaxer and it was way too much to consolidate into one video or post. I…

Over My Relaxer Stretch | Roller Setting to Get Me Through
I have been over this stretch for the past few weeks. The tangles, the longer wash days — the wash days in general, ugh, I’m so close to throwing in the towel. But with three weeks left, I just need to calm my nerves. To help me get through this week I decided to do a roller set. I’m hoping that having…
Checking My Length and My Ends | January 2016 Wash Day
Last weekend was the half way point of my relaxer stretch and I have been doing a really good job of not using any heat on my hair, so with the new year upon me, I decided to blow dry and flat iron my hair to see how my hair was doing. I was curious about my length, but even…
Weeks 23 and 24 of My 6 Month Stretch | Preparing for Relaxer Day!

Wash Day | Roller Set, Flat Iron, Curl.
I was so close to picking up CHI Infra Treatment on Thursday night. I was browsing the beauty section at TJ Maxx when I saw that they had the liter size on clearance for $10! I felt this instant compulsion to purchase it because of the massive savings that were available to me even though I’d never really heard much…
Wash Day Chronicles | Spring 2014
Even when I can’t blog, I make sure to keep up with my wash day routine. Waist Length by December 2014 is still my goal. So, I try not to go more than 2 weeks without squeezing in a wash day. And because of my Use up My Stash Personal Challenge, I’ve been experimenting with various combinations of products with…
Why Do You Use Multiple Leave-Ins?
Some things I have down to a science and others I just mimic what I see. Using multiple leave-ins is more about the latter (with a little bit of trial and error). The first situation where I started experimenting with using multiple leave-in was with flat ironing. Flat Ironing. If I was going to be a DIYer, I had to…
