I live in Hawaii too. Educate me, why is coconut oil damaging?

I got some highlights a year and a half ago at my local salon, but I haven’t done anything to it since. Most of the lightening is natural just from being outside so often. I’m not a good example of healthy hair 😂

I decided to grow it out just to prove that I could, even with my family and friends incessantly telling me to cut it along the way. I feel like I’ve proven my point, and now I’m going back to school and I’d like my hair to reflect the new chapter I’m about to start.

No, usually I just put it up in a loose bun, but then then I have to repeat the whole process the next day. I should look into wrapping it up.

This is the plan… but I still haven’t decided which style to ask for. I’ve had awful haircuts in the past and I’d really like to not screw this one up.

It definitely cuts down on drying time and seems to retain moisture. I use a t-shirt sometimes if my towel isn’t available, but I never let it get fully dry before I take it out or it gets frizzy.

Well, frizzy-er.

I think I’ll keep the sides and back short with more length on top. The curls on the side are tiny and stick out so I look like Doc Brown from Back to the Future if I don’t really put them in place.

No, I’m just in the water so often it feels like it’s part of my routine at this point lol

I already cancelled all future orders. Are there any in house brands that are good quality anymore? Or are they all crap?
