Boring....

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I'm not in a hair mood, as of late. The skimpiness of posts should have been a warning sign to me, but meh. I've been totally ignoring my hair during the week - no midweek DC's, no MT, nada. I haven't even two strand twisted my hair in the last - two weeks, I think? - and have been wearing it in my one comb updo, instead. I even left it product free this week, and checking it out now, it's not doing too bad. The ends are mildy tangled, but all things considered, it's not bad at all. The only part that is realllly tangled is my nape - I'm not even going to try to deal with it dry.
It does feel dry - but not like straw, or anything. It's not super tangled, as I can gently pull it apart and part it pretty easily - so, really not bad at all. I wouldn't want to do it too frequently, as I'm certain I'm 'banking' on some reserve moisture I've built up, but it's good to know that I can do it without horrid results, every now and then.

I'm going to caramel & steam it today, and I'm debating what to do with it afterwards. Doing my hair this way instead of in twists saves me about 3 to 4 hours a weekend - and, it's kinda my 'endgame', almost. To have hair long enough to put up for a week in a few twists, and more or less ignore. I don't think I expected it to happen this quickly, and I'm not sure if I'm really 'there', or if I'm just in a mood with my hair. Meh. I don't know.

Maybe I'm just at a resting point, for a while. I don't see myself content enough with my length (though it is longer than I've ever dealt with it loose before - I had locked about 3 inches ago) or my growth rate to totally stop using MT - I'll just have to be creative and figure out how to use it without having to pre-part. Maybe using it once a week, right after I wash? Meh - that's about as effective as not using it at all, in my mind, really. Hrpmh.

I still need DH to take length pics for me. Maybe I will TST, just so I can get those out of the way for another 3 months.

I have the feeling I originally came here to talk about more than my current ennui with my hair, but apparently not. *laugh*
