I get so frustrated with my horrible, scraggly, piecy, layered, straight and THIN hair!
I don't feel like it's getting any longer :( My ends feel dry and almost like they're gonna snap right off any day now. I've promised myself not to trim til Christmas, but I can feel my scissor hand itching! I've tried SMT's, heavy oiling, light oiling, not oiling, just CO-washing like normal and even clarifying, but nothing seems to help my dry ends.
I also feel totally uninspired when it comes to updos. Normally I wear my hair in a small tight bun with a hair stick (comfy and looks ok), and sometimes I'll do a ponytail. But ponytails are extremely unflattering on me bacuse of my hair texture and the shape of my head. No matter how high, low, centered or off I put it, it just looks sooooo boring and I look about 5 years old with the skinniest , peiciest pony ever! Am I the only one with this pony-problem?
And I can't really braid due to the layers. Since i've never really had my hair that long, I totally suck at braiding. Well I can make two english ones, richg behing my ears, but they look so pathetic! Small and tapering with bits of hair sticking out all over the place. I've tried to make a french braid, but my arms hurt so bad and I just seem to tangle up the different strands. I just feels like I'm not making any progress. :(:(:(
Any tips on what to do when your hair feels totally hopeless? And did you go through any period like this, feel free to share in this thread! Bleh bleh BLEH!
