Hair Chronicles: The Takedown

2 Comments

It is 2:30 in the am.

I am sitting under a hooded dryer with conditioner on my hair after spending 7 hours taking out my twists.

I was going to wait for the weekend, but I decided to just get it over with.

So far my only fear is that I won’t be able to untangle my hair in certain parts…I thought maybe if I condition it well first it may not be so bad so we’ll see.

I think my hair did thin out though…either that or I was so used to the thick twists, I just have to get used to my own hair again.

This will be a loooong night…

ETA: It is 5:45 AM.

I lost a WHOLE bunch of hair, but I guess that’s normal since my head did the normal shedding thing for about two months and there was nowhere for the hair to go.

On the plus side though, I have two inches of 100% non chemicalized KaNisa hair…and even more in the “kitchen” area!

I figure I’ll cut an inch every month until I’m all me.

ONWARD!
