If you read my previous post, then you know that on Saturday I washed my hair with my black soap "shampoo" to test if it can withstand water without becoming undone. I did not use conditioner, seeing that I don't want them to unravel. For that would be asking for it to happen. Little did I know that my little baby locs' true test of strength would be the next day...Okay maybe I was aware. But I was not sure if it was going to happen.
On Sunday I went swimming in a chlorinated pool on a RAINY DAY! To make the situation even worst I was not able to wash my hair along with my after-swim shower , reason being that I had somewhere to go right after. By the time I reached back home there was just enough time to have another shower and go to bed. So in short, I am now back out on the road and my hair still has not been rid of the chlorine... I am being such a bad mom to my little locs right now. But I promise that I will wash them when I go home and step up my game forever after..hopefully :)
My hair currently looks like a randomized mess. But I have to say I like it. Gives them personality. Locs on the roots and random plaits and curls on the ends. But take a look for yourself and form your own conclusion. Once again, I like it.
babe Just saying sun, chlorine, beach are all enemies to the locks ... unless u like orange shade locks ... lol or you can dye it black regularly worst if ur natural hair was auburn or reddish in some form before ...
ReplyDeleteHi Tre, thanks for reading my blog and yeah I am learning as I go along. But I plan to henna my hair. Which is something I used to do before. That is why I have the red tint. It doesn't harm your hair...actually makes it stronger. But i will definitely do better when it comes to chlorine though :/
ReplyDeleteWell if the Henna gave your hair that color, I need me some of that (smile). If I may add there is a simple solution to the main issue (Chlorine) though. A swimming cap(YEAH) I am sure your hair would thank you for it.
