Staring at my hair on an hourly basis certainly won't make it grow faster.....

I had this same narcissistic obsession with my hair when I first started growing my locs. I'd check and check, look, turn my head..do everything to see if I had any new growth. Eventually I stopped stalking its growth and before I knew it I had a head full of luscious locs.

Now, I wait again...this time in hopes of a head full of healthy and wild hair...eclectic like me...
But it certainly requires that I give it love and time and high doses of patience.

In the meantime I've mixed my own set of oils and potions which I use on a daily basis. Currently my concoction consists of castor oil, jojoba oil, peppermint oil, burdock oil and aloe vera gel. I keep them mixed up in a little bottle that I squirt about a quarter size into my hair daily. I decided on these oils based on the one trillion blogs I've been reading on natural hair! Interestingly enough, I've been trying to decide if I should continue to get my hair wet daily when I shower but I haven't found that answer in any of the blogs I read. This is an awesome perk of having little hair on your head; but since I'm now growing it out I don't know. I use a conditioner..whichever smells the best to me, while I shower. We'll see how that works. I guess I'll see in time if I should stop.

I'll have to get hubby to take some pics so I can chart my progress...
