Product Alert: Aussie Moist conditioner

Last night, me and my boo were at Target (he bought me earrings, how SWEET - I LOVE HIM!!), and I slipped some Aussie Moist conditioner into the cart. The big bottle was only $6.59 (or something like that). I have yet to use my products because I'm rocking the Mexico Rex Wavy Malaysian. A friend of mine from my forum is sending me her Mega-Tek. I think my natural hair may be long enough to braid next month... maybe not, but it feels that way. I'm really happy with this application this month, but I haven't taken any pictures of it. I thought I was going to phase out the lacefronts, but my boyfriend had a good thought: if you're not going to straighten my own hair, what would you do if you'd want to wear a straight style? He's so right. I love my straight malaysian (I miss the one I gave away). So, when I want to change it up, I'll pop on a lacefront. I think I may start applying the nape inside the hairline by parting it and putting it on the part line, so I can brush my own hair up over the lace. It will work.

I've started cutting a V into the nape because I've been studying women's natural nape hairlines. I pulled some of my curlies out of the V and I think it looks more natural. It dawned on me that a straight across hairline looks... weird.

I started a Facebook group (another reason for me to be on the computer all the goddamn time). As if I'm not apart of too many forums already. It's called, "Magic Hair"...

This is quite disheartening!

I've realized that the middle of my nape is bald! On my new unit at that! That's where the shedding is occurring. I'm trying to debate on if I'm going to cut it in a upside down V or painstakingly reventilate the area myself. I'm leaning towards cutting the V. Once my own hair is longer, I can cover up the edges of the lace with my own curly hair. I'm not too worried. I don't know whether to blame Rex or what. My next unit will definitely be a stock, with the PU strips, not because I'm all of a sudden in love with PU, but that now I remove my units with the oil sheen (that's a revelation, like the iPod or caller ID). What's worse, is that now the new kitten, Dagny Taggart Sephora likes to sit on the back of the couch while I'm blogging and claw at my nape... not helping. She's doing it now... declawing sounds really good right about now. I've forgotten what having a kitten is like. I digress.

I just remembered... before I put this app on (last Saturday?), I loaded my hair with Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisturizing Treatment and wrapped my head in saran wrap. Then I put my sleep scarf on, and slept in a deep conditioning treatment overnight. My hair was really soft the next morning, then I put my lacefront on. I've decided that I'm transitioning to only wearing my own textlaxed hair... when it hits shoulder length.
