Yo, my hair is going under cover y’all cause there’s this mad crazy woman by the name of Mo who’s trying to kill it……….
I am not interested in my curls right now nor do I have time to look after them any more. I moved house recently- straight out of London into Kent. I’m still working in London but driving in everyday. The commute is not bad but work is so busy right now and I’m working longer hours. By the time I get home in the evenings all I want to do is eat and sleep. In the mornings, its still dark and I have about half an hour to get ready for work. Hair care has been relegated to the weekends, if I’m not working. Right now – I’m just Mo, forget the hair.
I have been experimenting with keeping my hair straight by using flat irons once a week. I’ve been wearing ponytails and buns to work as these take 5 mins to do in the mornings. I’ve really enjoyed the full length of my hair and the ease of styling but I can’t help but wonder if the regular use of heat is a ticking time bomb. I am only willing to “thermalax” my texture to a certain extent. I have flat ironed my hair more times in the last month than in the prior 3 years of my hair journey. I told you: Mo is crazy!
I have decided to put my hair away – in braids – with extensions. I haven’t done these in close to 2 years. I am still thinking about the style and technique I want to try so I’ll write about that as soon as I’ve decided.
