Short Term Goals Thread

**elaina** · April 23rd, 2022, 06:12 PM

as of now my short term goal is to keep up with protective styling, which at this length is pretty much just braids, and then get my hands on some henna and figure out if i like the red or wanna go black. if i want to go with black im thinking ill want to give myself a hime cut, fighting off the urge to just do it anyways, because i think it would look best on hair thats all one colour. i also need to figure out what i want to do with my bangs, but that kind of depends on what colour i want to go with / my haircut.

My short-term goals are to finally learn how to do Dutch braids for protective styling, to use leave-in conditioner more frequently (I've recently noticed it really helps), and to finally buy satin pillowcases

Thank you! I'm doing really small ones because I self sabotage a lot so been making 1.5 weekly goals. Im afraid this goal is too far away but I'll give it a go

I've made some substantial progress toward not redoing my hair constantly. I think I need a more concrete goal, though, to measure myself against. I'm thinking my new goal will be to not re-do my hair once I've put it up unless I'm leaving the house or it has somehow fallen out of the style.

Looks like I made it. The 9th is tomorrow and I have no dye at home to do my hair tonight yay.

Edit: I bleached my hair for a job interview May 10 but my new goal from now is no more bleach or trims. Til May 20

I have a short term goal of not using my hair straighteners until the end of may (I have an event and would like my hair straight for it) so ill be having buns all month most likely!

My short term goal is to keep my dang clippers and scissors away from my head for the next 6 months and hopefully longer.

What's annoying to me is that for the week or so that I did do it, I noticed quite the difference. So it would certainly help, but I can't gain new habits to save my life! Maybe I should put it on my Habitica list so I can check it off and get XP for it
