I've been pretty busy for the past few weeks, with summer work, getting the last few days in of hanging out with my buddies before school starts back up.
I haven't exactly been adventuresome with my hair lately, I just don't think about it.
Anyway, the other day I had to drive over an hour to the DMV [the one nearest to me is absolutely horrendous] and we got there around 10:30 a.m. We waited around for about an hour and then the lady told us that driving tests don't start until 3 p.m. Lovely.
So my mom and I drove back to go eat somewhere [where a waitress told me I had pretty hair.], we went to the bank, and then to Walgreens [where I found a tube of Aloe gel and a 30 oz. bottle of Suave Coconut =) Yay!] and then finally drove back to the DMV and waited another hour. Needless to say, I was exhausted.
Long story short, I got my license and as my picture was printing out she said that she likes my hair much better now than when I got my permit [when I still straightened it all the time]. It suits me better.
I'll try harder to update more often.

Raise your hand if you never remember to update.
*Raises hand*
I don't really have a lot to report on to be honest. Although I did have a fabulous hair day today. Pictures unavailable because a lady I'd just met ran her fingers through my freshly scrunched-out-crunch hair.
I was fuming.
But just to say, I used Jessicurl Hair Cleansing Cream because my hair was starting to feel a bit gross. I conditioned with Suave Coconut and a bit of TooShea. My normal protein-filled styler was put aside today because my hair was feeling a little dry. Too much of a good thing, you know? So I reverted back to my lovely Gelebration spray. I put Loreal Lasting Curls gel as a frizz fighter and HESMU gel. I diffused for about 20 minutes or so and about 2-3 hours later, scrunched out the crunch [right after I found out that we had company.
Then came the, "Is this your natural hair? Does it really curl like this?" complete with the raking of the fingers through my hair.
I was highly upset. I worked hard for that hair and she ruined it! Then started telling me about Redken products because she sells them! No, lady. I don't need your products.
I'll try the same routine tomorrow. *sigh*

I keep forgetting I have this thing...
So I haven't updated in a few days, so I figured that I would today.
Since then I have tried to wave my best friend's hair just with gel and Gelebration spray and tried to "curl" it with a curling iron.
Things I have learned:
*Naturally straight hair really does exist. I didn't believe it until then.
*I don't know how to deal with fine, straight hair. It boggles my mind. Funny how things work like that.
*Her hair will not hold a curl, no matter how hard I try. We have to come to terms with this fact.

After "Waving".
In other news, I tried Biotera today. I didn't get bad results, but they weren't fabulous. I think I need a lot more hold than it offers, but I will admit that my hair feels very soft and is frizz-free. Always good.
