Product Review: Organix Coconut Milk shampoo and conditioner

Hey! I just wanted to come and do a quick product review. I've heard so many people rave about this shampoo and conditioner so I decided to try it. Well.... My hair hates it. It leaves me feeling dry , tangled, and not conditioned at all. The only reason I continued to use it is because I paid $18 for the two of them. However, I just can't take it anymore. As of my next wash day (either tomorrow or Saturday) I will be switching back to my favorite; suave almond and Shea butter. Apparently my hair appreciates the cheap stuff. I was also leaning back towards Herbal Essences Hello Hydration. My hair  responded very well to that line also. We'll see. All I know is that there will be no more Organix in my future!

Relaxer Day

Hey! So today I went and got a relaxer at 18 weeks post. The top left picture was taken at the beginning of this week after washing my hair. This is when I realized that I needed a trim. The top right was taken today after my relaxer and the bottom two were taken after my trim. Overall I'm very pleased with how my hair came out. I went to a Dominican salon and completely expected the stylist to be scissor happy, which she was not. So I may have lost a small amount, but my hair looks so much healthier. Not to mention the body and motion it has now. Also, this is the length I'm at two years after getting my pixie cut. I would have liked it to be longer but of course I've done trims over the past two years. I'm not complaining! My next goal is going to be APL. No more ponytails every day for me. I'm getting back to the TLC I know my hair needs. So happy growing to us all!

I'm back! Hair update

Hey! It's been forever since I posted. Almost a year! I've been busy working, moving into a new house, pretty much just living life. So I just wanted to pop in and do a quick update. My hair has definitely grown a lot. BUT... Because I've been working so many hours (hospital job) I've been just throwing my hair into a ponytail. After I washed my hair a couple of days ago I noticed that one side has been breaking off. I'm going to get a relaxer on Friday at 18 weeks post. I'm going to a salon this time, only because I really need a good trim to even it all out. That really sucks, because I just made it to two years after my pixie cut and here I am having to cut my hair again. All I can say is lesson learned! I'll have to start doing my hair the way I used to. I'll be back on Friday after my relaxer to post a picture before and after the trim. I also have a few product reviews coming up so be on the look out!
