Slacking!! But workin on it...
It seems like I am writing a post every few months about me slacking on my hair care! WTF! Yeah, I'm preoccupied with other things in my life and have been wearing my hair in ponytails, not tucked. And I have not worn my phony pony very often. I have a few split ends that need to go so I will be trimming the ends of my twists next time I wash.

Megatek Update!
It has been a month and a half since I started using megatek. As soon as I started it I also started using something else not hair related. My hair began shedding like crazy! Alot of hair! It was so much that I noticed that my hair line had thinned out. If you watch my pony baggy video you can see that I stop and look at the mirror like, hm strange...
Yea...
So I really don't know which caused the shedding to be so severe but it has subsided now. I am still shedding, yes, but it is way less than it was before. If I had to guess I would say that the megatek caused the shedding. I say that because I was applying alot of it in the beginning, unnecessarily. Once I cut back on the amount that I used on my hair at one time I noticed the shedding decreased. And, the past 2 weeks I have not used it every day, I have noticed that the shedding has decreased more. Finally, when I first started I was using it on the hair line generously. Now I don't apply it to that hairline and whatever excess being rubbed into the scalp will get to the hairline also but it is way less than me applying straight to my hairline. Again, my hairline shedding has decreased.
So to counteract the shedding I was still getting I started using my sulfur oil along with the megatek and that has helped also.
Despite the shedding, my hair has grown alot due to using megatek. Like I said I have not measured it but, I cut and inch and my hair does feel like it is longer than it was before I cut that inch off. So all in all I am very happy with megatek and I am happy that I did not waste my money on the huge gallon for nothing!
Every day or whenever I remember I massage a small amount of megatek and some sulfur oil into my scalp. Thats it!

Update! School Youtube and The Hair
I havent updated in a while. I just started my 4th year of college and am looking forward to graduating. I havent decided on a few things that I have been thinking about this past year but I will know for sure at the end of this semester what I want to do. I also started working again so I am kind of happy about that. I am happy that I have a job now, I am just a little frustrated that I am not working in the field that I need to be in, so that I can get the experience that I need. And seriously I kind of have no idea who to talk to or where to go to find that kind of job where I live. The only thing I can think of is one of the colleges or hospitals. I dont really know where to start...
I will figure that out when I get to that point.
My laptop that I transfer all my vids to was down for a while so I wasnt able to upload any videos to my youtube. It is back on now and I will be doing videos when I have time. I finally posted the rollersetting video after like a month or so. :( My next video will be some zigzag french braids(cornrows) and obviously more makeup. I have a bunch of ideas for halloween that I will post as I do them.
Ok, on to the hair...
I still have not measured my hair! WTF! But after I did the rollerset I said I was going to trim it. I ended up cutting it. About an inch I cut off. No more split ends! :) I have been forgetting to wear my scarf at night and I know that it is affecting my hair. But I have gotten over the take care of the hair at all costs idea. I just let my hair do its thing. Keep it in a protective style and dont comb it and so far so good. I may regret it later but right now I am not really worrying about it.
When I get like this, whe I start to not care about my hair, I know it is time to put it up into a style where I dont have to think about my hair at all. So I am going to wear french braids for the nest few months or so. I may do a roller set in between after the temps go down more. Right now I am going to keep my hair braided up.
Tommorrow I am going to wash my hair and my baby girls hair and we are both getting braided up. We will keep our hair in braids for a week and redo. I will be rubbing megatek and my sulfur oil on my scalp daily. And we will clarify and DC before the braids are put back in.
What else? Hhmmmm...

My hair and Megatek
I am in love with this megatek!<3
I have been using it for about 2 weeks or so. I had my hair braided up in my baggy that I demonstrated on youtube. When I took down my hair to Shampoo and DC I could immediately tell that there was significant growth! I did not take any measurements but I could tell there was a big difference!
I am soo tempted to straighten it so I can get a trim ans see where I am. I should be very close to BSL...
I did a clear rinse this past week and did a video on it But WMM(windows movie maker) is acting retarded... But anywayz, I cant believe that I forgot about clear rinses! I made my hair so shiny and I could see that my curls were defined better! I will never forget about rinses ever again.
