Bunning!

I was in a play the last two weekends, and yet did not do anything to my hair because I just didn't have the time, unfortunately. Luckily, it just needed to be in a bun [I was Mrs. Trent in Murder's In The Heir, a murder mystery where the killer is chosen by the audience.]

Nurse Withers on the left, Mrs. Trent on the right.

It was a sock bun, so less big than I'm used to, as seen here:

Here is a closeup of that sock bun from two different showings:

 Incidentally, in the days before the play I had time to do my hair every day, so it looked like this for a few hours before going back to being a bun:

Fun stuff, right? Anyway, my hair doesn't actually appear to have gained any length, and I'm thinking it's because my old and relaxed hair is super weak, because I have sections with no straight hair left, but the natural hair is the right length [so it's not actually breaking, but I will trim it just in case during my BC at the end of the year.]

This is how long my natural hair was in the beginning of January:

 Middle of February:

It's at my chin now, actually, so I guess the castor oil is working.

I know I haven't taken any texture shots, but it's because I don't like how thin and wispy my relaxed hair is compared to my huge, bouncy, shrunken coily 4b hair.  I adore my texture; even my mom was like 'What did you do to your hair to make it look like that‽' when I showed it to her. It had clarifying shampoo on it, and this Ion Clarifying Shampoo defines my hair something fierce. I was cleaning my bang to see if I needed to shampoo. I don't ^_^.

Anyway, stay tuned for a post about Bentonite [Calcuim] Clay and the Denman brush, if you please. Either way, have a healthy hair journey!
