Hair Journey: Week 4

Week 4. I'm posting this a little late, but things have been kind of crazy. Panda has been extra clingy and I have not been able to get a chance to blog lately. The color of my hair is off in this picture but I think the orange of our wood was playing tricks with my camera. Oh well. You can, however, see that my hair is still a little greasy but the itchiness is gone. I wash my hair about every two days with my honey mixture. I take a shower everyday and just wash it through with water on days I don't use my honey. I think my hair is still adjusting. I have heard that it can take some people longer than one month to adjust. The braid in the picture is not my real hair. It is an extension that I had matched to my real hair color from a wonderful Etsy store called Puppycatmeow. I love them. Till my hair regrows from my tragic hacking this will do. The beautiful barrette was a gift from a 13 year old neighbor of mine. I love it, it's beautiful and I know how hard she worked on it. It might just be my new favorite hair toy. One moth of no shampoo. I think we will stick with it, but this next month I think I will try some of those apple cider vinegar rinses. Be well.

This Moment and Hair Journey: Week 1

"A Friday ritual. A single photo-no words- capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember."SouleMama". 
HairJourney: Week 1
I have been shampoo free for one week. The first few days my scalp itched like crazy. I was able to calm the itch a little by adding more tea tree oil to my honey hair wash. My hair was staticky and oily those first few days as well, but both have surprisingly gone down. I thought it would take at least a month to adjust. My hair looks and feels fuller, it even has that healthy highlighted sheen that only children seem to be naturally blessed with. My fading red seems to have been given a boost and is even looking closer to the blazing glory it was in my youth as well. Week 1 and not missing the poo. Hehehe.
