Having The Baby Today

I'll be away for the next week or so. We're having our baby this morning (c-section). I'm pretty sure I'll be over the moon between finally seeing my LO and the drugs I'm sure to be on (LOL)!

My hair is in a messy bun. Not too cute. But it's well conditioned. Should hold up well for the next few days.

Much Needed Inspiration - Stretching

I've been a little discouraged lately. My new growth is so thick! detangling has really taxed my nerves. And my ends are looking a little raggedy. Looks like it's time to get back to what really works for me: simplicity and no heat.

For the next 30 days I'm gonna try Sylver2's relaxer stretching regimen. I'm about 9 months post relaxer. She's 11! So her tips are just what the doctor ordered.

Luckily for me I was able to pick up the products she recommends at my local Giant grocery store: Rusk Smoothing Conditioner and NTM Leave-In Conditioner. I'll try it out tonight and post my results tomorrow.



Personally I think this is a great style for an expecting mom. I'm hoping to utilized is for the foreseeable future. Lord knows I won't want to be bothered with my hair once the baby arrives.

Upcoming Shopping Trip

Beauty Supply Store on Saturday: need to pick up Rusk conditioner.

Walmart on Saturday or Sunday.

My Bun

I'm wearing my hair straightened again. Still....I can't resist putting it up in a bun. It makes me nervous to wear it down and exposed to the wind too much. Maybe I'll soften up by the summer and rock a cute twist out once in awhile.

What's the use of growing your hair out if you can't enjoy it?

Can you tell I'm 9 months pregnant here? Even my neck looks fat!!
