I am tired of my hair. I mean, I love it but I'm tired of trying to find new ways to manage it. Plus, I don't know what has happened over the past two or so years, but it is not as healthy and thick as it used to be. I guess that just comes with time and age, but it makes me unhappy.
So now I'm thinking about getting a really nice weave and wearing that for a few months to give my hair a break. What do you think? I mean, I've worn them a couple times in the past for brief periods of time, but I've never been comfortable with sporting anything fake for long periods of time (those are my own personal issues that I have to deal with).
I don't know. I almost feel like I should wait until summer when I really get frustrated, but I want to do it now. Will it cause more damage if I do that - or will it take some of the stress off of my own hair? Man, I don't know. Let me just take some vitamins and shut up.
OK, so even if I don't get a weave, what else can I do? This ponytail has been going on for three weeks now. I am trying to hold off on pressing it until my birthday which is 5 weeks away. I guess I could twist it again - but after that seminar about corporate culture and all that, twists aren't really a "Corporate" look. Ugh - the plight of the black woman.

I know what you mean. Uumm... I would suggest a weave until your birthday. Either sewn in or a cap. Sew-ins don't stress your hair as much as glue, but a cap(if done right)can be taken off and on something like a wig. They don't last as long though. Maybe you should try a wig. Good luck getting all that hair under one :-)
Thanks for the input!
You should try the weave. Nice look. It cost, so well you have the money.
Oh and im mad at you
skates mom is a hairstylist so she's giving me a weave for the holiday season in dece,ber. sewn-in is probably best since its just cornrows underneath but you have to figure out whats going on with the "cover" hair (which is yours). i think its a good. idea. try it and see. the good thing about the black womans plight is that nothing is permanent.
We had a similar discussion today during our staff meeting about what's appropriate at work... wear your natural hair and embrace your diversity!!! I am from now on. Weaves are cool but I've never been a fan. So are you taking any vitamins? Drinking lots of water? Your diet or stress levels could be the culprit to your thinning hair??
