Excited/Nervous!!!! I wish I bit my nails!

So, today I washed, deep conditioned, and colored my hair.

So I pre-pooed with just the LaKair and Carrot Oil. Instead of appliying like a virgin perm, I just used a few quarter amounts of both so it was semi saturated, sat under the dryer 20 minutes, washed it.

I finally used my ORS Replenishing Pak....was great. I semi applied it as a virgin perm. Next time I will put it in a container like my pre-poo mixtures so it is easier.  It was in a packet so it was hard to do it all.  But came out good nontheless.

Last, I put in the black rinse, it is the Clariol one for relaxed hair in a brown bottle. If you are in like Sally's it will be near the Jazzing bottles. This one is safe enough to do the same day you get a perm, you just should not use heat if it is the same day. I always apply mine in sections. Starting with the top middle, then the back and then the sides and front. I rub it in good massaging my scalp and then I apply some more like a moisturizer. I sat under the dryer 10 minutes and just with the plastic cap for 15 more. And then rinsed it out. It looks pretty good, a little darker than I thought it would be but I like it!

SO I bought my hair today for my sew-in. I will be getting it done 9am tomorrow. I have pictures I need to upload but I lost my cord for my camera. Soooooooo, when I find it, I will upload. I got 1b hair....it is a little lighter than my rinse but not like a crazy amount so it should be okay. Also, I am highly nervous about having long hair. I decided to save myself $14 and not cut it down. So it will be like to my armpits in some spots. My hair was a few inches from that before. So, it will be new to me. I hope I don't look funny.

I considered doing wigs, so i tried some on.....wigs are not for me! I may need the ones personally made for me! LOL! So the sew-in should look better....my main concern is that the hair left out will get puffy from the humidity and be obvious it is not the same.  Really worried about that.

Gonna find my cord and take pictures before and after tomorrow and hopefully post all of them soon!
