If you're anything like me, you've managed to hold a semi solid routine for a couple of weeks, Christmas has interupped and now you're stuggling hard to get back into the flow of things. Admittedly I took a break from my personal blogging platform and it's been a bit tricky to get back into the swing of pursuing and inspiring.
HOWEVER!
The area of my life that has been the most affected by my lack of routine is my crown! She has been kind of neglected though protective styling with a wig. My habit of spritzing with water slowly dwindled and I wasn't adding extra moisture on top of that.
Luckily a fast approaching photoshoot made me more conscious of the state of my mane and after I shampoo, conditioned, moisturised and blow dried (for the first time in about a year or so I might add) my hair it felt great! I did also have to resurrect my conscious efforts to moisturise my hair and keep her healthy... and now she's back under a wig for a while.
I'm honestly feeling lazy when it comes to hair maintenence. I've had conversations with a few friends and my husband about cutting my hair and just starting all over again, but after my last wash day I realised that I just need to put specific goals in place. When you don't have goals you lose vision. That's why in Habbakuk it says “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it." I realise more and more that this also applies to my hair!
So briefly, what are my mane goals for 2017 and how do I plan to stick to them?
1) To maintain healthy hair by looking at past experiences, doing research and implementing a consistent routine;
2) Maintain length by keeping styling to a minimal and protecting my ends. I did some research and quite a few ladies mentioned that they only style their hair twice a weeks o I'm going to try this and see how it goes.
The beauty of goals and their execution is that they are subject to change as time goes by. I may find other ways to maintain length that don't necessarily work for one person but do for me. Also as mentioned in my previous post, it's ok if goals get broken as long as I get up and pick up from where I left off asap.
