It Wasn't Bad After All (the first wash)

Well, all that fuss over the SL shampoo and you know what ..... it actually agrees with my hair but i can still relate to what everyone else has been saying.

I was so apprehensive doing it though. I plaited it up into sections, banded the ends and poured over the water. One thing i did notice different from all the other blogs is that my TC told me to pat the shampoo into my head instead of rubbing it in a circular motions all in the same direction... maybe its because my hair is soft and silky (baby hair). Anyho that shampoo stripped my hair from all traces of oil and that is great (for me) as my hair oils up pretty well by itself and i've never suffered from dry scalp in fact, as i think of it, i don't think apart from when i was a child and my mum used to do my hair i've ever greased my scalp..... just my hair!, good thing, bad thing, i'm not to sure but it worked for me!

I'm not a trained hairdresser and i dont pretend to be but i do suggest that if you suffer from dry scalp, an irritable scalp or dry breakable hair that you might want to invest in a backup shampoo..... JUST IN CASE. However if your hair matches the same description as mine : soft, silky, no dry scalp (baby hair) then SL shampoo is all good.

So just to sumarise it up for all of you....if you want your hair to lock quickly use the SL shampoo or a shampoo that contains sea salt or anything that dehydrates the hair; if you want your hair to shine, look healthy, not feel like velcro and you have the patience of waiting for your hair to lock use an alternative.

SLIPPAGE

WELL, I've had so much of it ... majority of the front, the sides at the front and 2 totally came out at the back, but not the back hairline (give thanks for small mercies) However my hair does look like i am transitioning as the roots are still SL'd but the ends APPEARS to be loose. Roll on August 23rd as that is the day of my first retightening and i've got a feeling that i will be there longer than 6 hours!!

Just as i finished writing that last sentence Shan flung my head forward and says

'Oh, you do know that a couple have come out'

'Yes babe i do'

'What by your neck piece'

'WHAT!!, WHERE??'

'Here' he says guiding my hand to the nape of my neck

'Oh s***!, well thats just friggin great innit. CHA!!'
