stressed tress

stressed tress
my locks are in an all time low right now. looked more horrible and wildly disarrayed than usual. ironically enough, it has never been this long, ever. it's dry and tangled all over and i'm in serious need of a hair make over... fairy godmother of hair, help me!

mom heard me whining and came to the rescue. she may not be fairy godmother but she's mother all right. although her ways are yes, questionable even for weird old me, i was made to comply for fear that questioning her methods would be too much for me to handle.

and then, she went on and on about how her hair was long and thick back in the days when she was younger and how her mother (my grandmommy, god bless her soul!) would bathe her hair in coconut milk which was exactly what she did with mine. weird, i know!

after having your hair all covered in gata, you let it stand for about an hour or so and then you rinse it with your fave shampoo. you would really have to rinse it well so you won't get too much oil on your locks and you won't end up looking like you have been dipped on grease. your hair should be shiny and well-moisturized by then.
experts (read as: mother) say the effect would be good for around two days and i wonder if the smell was included in that. the stink of coconut milk would really stick to your hair even after vigorous shampooing.
and i'm not really sure if you should be taking beauty advice from moi! haha :D
