I think by now it's clear that I'm in love with my coconut oil soap. From reading the reports of everyone who is using what is now being called "Movie Star Shampoo", everyone seems to need a different ratio of coconut oil to shampoo. Some use more shampoo than oil, others, like me, use more oil than shampoo.
However, the last time I washed my hair, I accidentally doubled the amount of coconut oil in my mixture.
Let me tell you, it ain't pretty.
The ends of my hair are fairly happy, but all of the hair from the forehead to the nape just looks plain oily. Wearing an updo barely helps, because it looks as though I greased my hair back. Yipes!
So, I'll be making sure to be more diligent about my measurements in the future. When I do the correct ratio, my hair doesn't look oily at all. In fact it just looks lustrous and full.
There's a lot going on right now in my life that's distracting me, so I'm not really in shock that I made such a goof. Anyway, one shampoo will take care of that little oops.
My bangs are already at the stage when I would ordinarily trim them. I guess I forget how quickly they grow. They're starting to irk me already, so I may have to start using gel to keep them out of my eyes.
I don't know how this bang-growing-out thing is going to work. I just might not have the patience right now.
I'm starting to get a bit nervous about Christmas. I've had so much on my plate that I really haven't made the proper preparations as yet.
I guess things will get done though, as they always do.
'Til tomorrow, my friends. Much love to all.

Hi Franny! Growing out your bangs? I thought you loved them, I think they are uniquely you, although I understand completely how you feel. Change can be a good thing, we all need to step out of our comfort zone from time time. I have been following the Movie Star Thread with great interest, just haven't tried it yet. I use cones (shampoo and conditioner) so I feel that the oil shampoo mix would leave my hair too oily, I think they refer to it as saturation. I've toyed with the idea of clarifying and giving up cones for a couple of weeks and then trying the Movie Star Method. We'll see, perhaps after Christmas has come and gone.
