Ran Out of Victoria's Secret So Sexy Conditioner

I always dc with this conditioner on special occasions. ;-) If you've never used this, the smell is just divine. I even dc'ed with it the day before my wedding so I've had this conditioner for almost 2 years. Today was no different since it is Valentine's Day. I washed my hair, but when it came to the deep condition part I had to the beat the bottle to get the last bit out. I guess it's time to get a new bottle.... I went over to Victoria's Secret website and I don't see the one I bought. They have new ones now. They've even changed the bottle around. I bought the So Sexy Nourishing Conditioner for Dry/Damaged Hair. Now it's called the So Sexy Nourish Healthy & Hydrated Conditioner for Dry/Damaged Hair. I'm not sure if the new one smells like the old one though.

You can buy 3 for $24 right now. This is another one I spotted on the site.

If they both smell as great as my old bottle, I want both of them!

I've Made My Decision! Transitioning Or Not?

As I type this, I'm sitting in my closet playing with my new growth. I just finished washing my hair & dc'ing with ORS Replenishing Pack. I'm in awe right now looking at my new growth. The pack made it so curly and soft! It's so hard for me not to big chop right now! So I've come to my decision: to hell with relaxers. I want to see my natural hair. :D I'm officially transitioning to natural hair. I'm so excited because this is a brand new journey for me & I can't wait. I feel like a kid the night before Christmas. Ya'll already know I've been dreaming about my natural hair. Crazy I know...but it's true.

This decision didn't come easy to me. I've been researching for weeks and just really trying to make sure this was the right decision for me. Thank you to everyone who offered advice! I am also so grateful to the Youtubers who've provided inspiration for women who are transitioning. Thank you! :-)

The Cheap Way to Deep Condition: Grocery Bags

 Old pic of me dc'ing w/ a grocery bag

My mother used to collect our plastic grocery bags in a drawer after we would come from the grocery store. I never understood why she did it, I just did what I was told. Now I do it. My husband doesn't understand my obsession with collecting grocery bags. It's funny how we pick up things from our parents. So I came up with my own purpose of collecting them: to deep condition my hair. :-)

When I first started my healthy hair journey, I had a dome hair dryer, but that sucker conked out on me in the 1st year of my journey. I've always wanted a Pibbs or something similiar. If you don't know, the Pibbs hair dryer is famous in the hair world! It's known for being an amazing hair dryer. On a bad note: They've just always seemed to expensive and not justifiable. They usually retail for around $300.....yeah. With The Munchkin on the way, who knows when I'll be able to get one...But anyway, to make up for it I use grocery bags as a substitute. I love them because they're effective & FREE. Well, after you buy the groceries they're all yours. I just wrap 2 around my head and deep condition for how ever long I feel like-usually around 2 or 3 hours. The heat from your scalp contributes to the dc'ing process. Because the plastic bags are indeed not a hair dryer, I deep condition with them longer.

If you collect grocery bags like me and don't have a hair dryer, try dc'ing with them. I know there are some ladies that use the grocery bags in addition to the hair dryer. That's fine too. Try it out and let me know how you like it! :-) ...or if you hate it.

Oh and here's a pic of my collection....lol. I will say this: I never run out!
