Do you ever have a bad hair week?

[Weewah]

Ever have a period of time where everything you do to your hair goes wrong? Like you feel like you got it all figured out, but then there is yet another rude awakening that, no, in fact you don't have your hair all figured out.

Well I'm having one of those weeks. I think it's a just-joining-LHC symptom that will pass in time.

yes, and its usually when I end up buying more products and cutting my hair.
trying to stop both habits.

[hairpleasegrow]

Yes I agree with ErinLeigh.

I've had about 6 months of bad hair but it's improved greatly since finding LHC. I'm a new member too I know I found it a little intimidating when I first joined. There are so many people with long gorgeous hair on this site (yours is gorgeous too btw ....you are at my goal length and health if that makes you feel any better )

Yeap, every now and then there are times (several days in a row) when my hair decides that it absolutly wont copperate no matter what, even though I havent done any changes in my (very simple) routine. The braid waves wont last, its frizzy, too flat or too fluffy, a strand decides to flip in a funny direction... you name it. I dont really do anything about it, I just wait and it´ll pass. Eventually

I'm over excited to try all these things, so anything and everything can go wrong, lol. My hair isn't as healthy as my avatar makes it seem, I styled it with rollers so it lays nicely. It's all bleached and breaks off constantly and soaks up everything/gets buildup in a bad way.

Yes I have those moments every day of my life. That's why I hate trying new things on my hair.

I always have bad hair moments when I try new products or attempt to switch from a routine that I know works well for my hair. For instance, not long after I first joined LHC I began reading about how quite a bit of the people here stretched their washes for days or weeks at a time, so naturally that was one of the first things I attempted for my new hair routine. After a few months I began to realize I am just not the type that can stretch their washes for longer than every other day.
Another thing I tried repetitively but my hair just did not like was the much raved about SMT (Snowymoon's Moisture Treatment.) So many people here have good outcomes from that treatment, but I always end up with a big frizzy mess. Turns out my hair loathes honey.

I also get bad hair days from sleeping on damp hair, but that is usually resolved by spritzing it with water and running a comb through it.

Oh, and don't even get me started on the static in the winter and humidity in the summer.

Having a bad hair week right now. Between a disappointing haircut where the hairdresser cut off too little instead of too much (so my ends are still crunchy), and going to a hotel with only shampoo and no conditioner, and realizing that I need to cut off two inches off my length because my overlayered ends are getting the better of me... Ugh.

[ExpectoPatronum]

My entire life is one big bad hair week.

[Verdandi]

Yes!
Not that often anymore though, since I've found out pretty much what works for my hair. I still get those bad weeks when I just long for the next washday to start over and hope for a normal week. That's when I just braid it, hate it and wait for washday.
