First things First

I had my follow-up visit yesterday...it was wonderful.  Why?  Well, I was expecting a lot less than what I got so that is always a pleasant surprise.  The 'what I got' that I speak of  is time, hands-on time!  My consultant RT my whole head.  She said that she was able to do at least one rotation on my whole head.  I guess at four weeks that is normal.  Is this extra-ordinary or have others experienced this too?  She asked me if I have been doing braid outs (I haven't) because my hair was very wavy.  My hair seems to have a wave pattern of its own and so I find that 'free-style' is the best way for me to go.  It is time efficient and it looks good.  Important factors, yes?

OK, with that said,  I did roll my hair with the SSs and, well...it turned out to be a waste of time.  I don't think it's because the product doesn't work but I do believe it will be necessary to use one of my setting lotions.  Also, the day after the 'set',  the weather here in Jersey was pretty cold, so I had a hat on.  Well, when I went to remove the hat, the curls were loooong gone.  But I think it will be cute, when I do it the right way.  Pics on that soon to come.

SO, all in all, the last four weeks have been a real pleasure and I can't say that I have ever been this excited over my hair, for this long.  OH...and I did my 2nd wash...it was uneventful.  I braided, banded, the whole nine, but I didn't get too serious about it, (15 mins total, including wash) and it went fine. Trust, I will use that approach from here on.

This is truly a new experience, and so far, I'm enjoying the ride!  Naturally yours...
