Farewell 2024

2024 has been a wild ride gone in a flash. Managed to do a small trim and ended the year on a high hair note. Work, health and life have kept me from writing more. I also kept my hair routine to a bare minimum. I managed to wash about once a week and kept it in a bun most of the time.  This worked quite well and am going to continue keeping things simple. Before taking this photo I had been asked if it's my real hair a few times when I had it down. In 2025 I would like to be more regular with my trims. I barely managed to do it twice this year.

May 2023 Update

Been playing with flexi rods for some curls. My hair has been doing well. Now that my hair is just past shoulder length I will be getting into a trim routine. I will be trimming with every relaxer so every 8 weeks. As it gets longer it is easier to trim by myself. Buns are also easier to do. When I don't blow dry I bun my hair instead and let it dry that way. Detangling starts to get challenging around the six weeks post mark so I blow dry the last two weeks.  No changes to my product line up or tools so far. Next relaxer is June I will use this opportunity to fully assess my hair when I trim it. How have things been going for you?
