I Co-Washed!

Breakage and shedding after air-dry mishap

On Tuesday, I shared about my air-dry bantu knot malfunction. Well last night I sprayed my hair with aloe vera juice, gently detangled and twisted my hair to go to bed. I experienced more breakage than I'm comfortable with along with normal shedding.

So, I Had a Bad Hair Day

Yesterday, I washed my hair and then let it air dry in bantu knots. I had the best intentions to lightly blow dry and flat iron it in the morning before I went to the office. Well, I woke up and started working on the KibibiHair Twitter account (more details to come) and that took longer than I expected.

When I got around to styling my hair, this is how it turned out. Now I remember why I don't like to air dry in bantu knots, especially this far into my stretch. Sigh.

Happy New Year!

I'm so excited about the new year. As a general rule, I don't make resolutions. After almost 10 years of unsuccessfully "resolving" to gain weight - yes, you read that right - I gave up on the whole institution.
