Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too, missrini.  We hope all goes well with your surgery.

Resolutions ... I don't think we really have any regarding hair.  I do think that we'll try to get through the year without a trim though.  We'll have to wait and see how it goes.

Good Luck Rini! I hope everything goes well

I think my hair new years reslotutions will consist of two main things:

1. Take better care of my hair
2. Don't cut/trim it AT ALL
Don't let the man get you down ~ me

How bout, no heat whatsoever, and only comb it in the morning for like 30 seconds or less with a wide tooth comb. And no products on the scalp at all(hair needs to breathe). Your hair is sure to grow faster that way.

Hmmm....

Hairy ones are:

 - I will use lukewarm water (not hot) to wash my hair
 - I will go back to virgin, un-hennaed hair
 - I will make a silk pillowcase
 - I will protect my hair from the wind (I love it blowing around)

Non-hairy ones are:

- Cultivate forgiveness
- Failing the above, execute revenge with calculated precision

Heh heh heh....."Evil" Uzi (not really, I'm just being silly coz I'm doing the company accounts and it is so boring)

Happy Christmas Everyone!

Good luck Missrini!  We'll miss you!

I guess my resolution would be to try harder to leave my top layer alone and only dust my ends.  That's difficult because a lot of the hairs on the top grow very thick (coarse), dark and kinky and feel very damaged to the touch, (I think it must just be genes, my niece has the same, but I always want to cut them) so resisting this urge will be hard.

Hope your surgery goes well missrini.

NEVER visit another hairdressing salon in my life.  That entails doing my own trims and colours (henna of course!).

Why won't you goto another hairstylist? Did you receive a bad service? As a professional stylist I hate it when people condemn the whole beauty industry because they were the victim of a bad service. There's good and bad in every profession. Avoid the catty, bitchy stylists who dress to the hilt and pile on the makeup with a paint roller they're usually The s00k.

Good luck Rini!

Mine are:

1. No semi dye

2. No straightening

3. No blowdrying

4. Try to embrace my natural without ending up wet-combing them out

5. Regular trims

6. Get to elbow-length

7. Grow the bangs from hell back to my collarbone or more

8. Cut EVERY split end I see off.

I have the same problem, Susan.  A lot of my bottom layer is like that and I'm constantly cutting those strands off, which is useless since they just grow back the same way.  We can try and resist the urge to cut them together... damn those genetics!

I have that too! They're always jet black and wirey like bubble hairs. I'm trying hard not to yank them out.

If you have a lot of them, you never seem to be finished yanking them out and there always seem to be more.  Best just to leave them alone or it will start to show like mine did.  They are visible in my last photo on my hair journey page as a dark halo of curly hairs sticking up around my head about 6 inches down from the top.

I get weird wiry hairs at my crown. They're jet-black, kinky, and really bizarre. They all come in a 2-inch patch of trich damage. I get the urge to pull them out too, but I'm not going down that road again.

So pulling them out actually made them grow in worse?  I was told by a cosmetologist to pull them out because something was missing from the hair and it would have a chance to grow in right.  They certainly never grew in right, and frankly I was wondering if I had more now than what I started with.

I think it causes some sort of trauma to the follicle, to pull consistently. At least that was my experience.

My new years resolution is to:

Do more S&D.

Brush my hair with only a wide tooth comb occasionally.

Drink more water & eat more fruit and vegatables and start taking my supplements again.

Condition my ends more often.

Do more Oil treatments

Wear my hair in a plait more often to avoid tangleing.

 
Type *~2A/2B~* waist length

Aim *butt length*

I think my biggest hair related ones are to go another year without chopping  *smiles*  

And to learn how to do something other than a bun and a ponytail!
