How to Texlax!

Hey There Girlies!

I've been asked on numerous occasions:

(1) What is Texlaxing?

(2) Okay so how exactly do you Texlax?

(3) How do YOU Texlax?

So finally I've gotten around to being able to answer the questions! Yay!
So here we go!

Wash Day! :-) Back to Braids!

Hey There Guys!

Wash Day this last weekend wasn't bad, per say,

I managed to do a much needed protein treatment,

Yay! - that's the sound my hair made post wash, Lol!
But I aint gonna lie, I was TIRED through the whole thing.
But what you gonna do?
The hair needs what the hair needs! So you've just got to soldier on!

My Updated Hair Goal!!

Hey There Guys!

While doing my Last post "Birthday Hair Tag" I was going through my Hairstyles & Hair Inspiration Board on Pinterest for pictures that best described the hair I'd love to rock (if I could) on my Birthday...

And I came across one particular picture I had forgotten I pinned a while back, but for some reason it really stood out at me the other day...

Guys is this not Perfection?

Seriously?!

I knew immediately, THIS is my Hair Inspiration for my Next Birthday, April 2015!

I don't expect my hair to be exactly like anyone else's hair,
but rather,
the Thicker Healthier Version of my own hair,

Rachie 2.0!

:-)

*Notice the thinner relaxed ends vs the thicker texlaxed section - breakage at the line of demarcation is a bummer, plus my straighter hair looks thinner that the more textured hair in general*

 So at some point I'll have to cut off these thinner ends - planning to do it very gradually, on a monthly basis.

Time to get some GROWTH and LENGTH RETENTION in High Gear!

Woot woot!

I'm feeling all rejuvenated over here! Lol

Do you guys have any Hair Inspiration/Goal pics that keep you motivated on your HHJ?
Drop me a line or 2 below!

Xoxo,

Rachie :-)

Wash Day! :-)

Hey There Guys!

Yup yup its that time again, Wash Day Recap! This past weekend I did not do a Wash Day,
What I did do was a
Dry Deep Conditioning Session with my trusty

Profectiv Daily Strengthening leave-In Conditioner:

I took down my Twists,
Applied Conditioner to hair in 2 sections,
2 large twists made,
Plastic cap placed over hair and heat (overhead dryer) for 15mins
Sealed with a bit of Grapeseed Oil + Castor Oil mix (Focusing on the ends).
The hair felt soft and moisturized so
I just did Buns for the rest of the weekend until Tuesday:

Yesterday I started my (mid-week) Wash Day
