Since it's finally warming up around these here parts, I decided to create my own heat challenge. That's right folks. For at the next two months, I won't be using heat at all, or at least, I can only use once every two weeks if my hair just looks that awful.
I won't lie. I'm really, really afraid to put away my flat irons. It's terrifying to think that I won't be able to instantly fix my hair problems or that I won't have great hair days. As a matter of fact, I'm freaking out RIGHT now.
I'm probably going to invest in some more flexi rods AND satin rollers (half of those things have disappeared, I swear). I'll also try bantu knotting and all of that, but I'm scared! Plus, I don't know what I'm going to do because rolling my hair is tough on my edges. However, something tells me that I'm going to figure it out. Doing this before helped my hair grow back in the day, and I can handle it again for at least the summer.
With that said, I'm starting off my no heat challenge (April 8, 2013- June 8, 2013) with granny curls. I greased my scalp with olive oil and some coconut oil grease (petroleum oil), sprayed on some leave-in and a little hair polisher and combed it through so that my hair would be soft and manageable. I don't think you guys have seen how these curls usually look, but if done correctly, they actually look pretty cute on me, so I'm cool with it...for now.
Emphasis on FOR NOW.
