    I’d just let things happen. I know that’s easier said than done, but having plan or continually talking through things puts pressure on everything. Just see what happens.

    Oh yeah, I didn’t mean that I’ve been bugging him to always talk about it. He told me last week that he’s not ready to talk about what happens when he leaves and I’ve respected that.

    MissDre, what’s your natural texture? Mine is quite wavy and frizzy but not thick. Lianne’s is wavy, VERY thick, and not very frizzy, also shoulder length while mine is longer. We both had miraculous results.

    I don’t know how much wave you can get, but it leaves plenty of body in your hair. You might have to do the waves after with a curling iron. Regardless, it’s way faster, less damaging, and easier than blowing out and flat ironing, and looks better than flat ironing.

    I start with the bottom layers, clipping the rest up, and go over each section twice, once from under and once from over, and move the brush slowly through to the ends.

    Good luck!

    @Kate my natural hair is very fine, thin and pin straight (and kinda oily). But I have extensions for both fullness and length. The extensions are thick and straight (Indian Remy Hair) but a bit dry since it’s no longer growing out of somebody’s scalp. I washed my hair today and conditioned it, added leave-in conditioner and a bit of dry oil, and twisted it up into a bun while it was still damp. I’ll use the brush tomorrow once it’s dry.

    And yeah, my friend has a curling wand so I might use that after.

    Oh, then go low heat and only turn it up to medium if you have to! Maybe you won’t be as amazed since your hair is already straight, but I sure AF was.

    Yeah I’m not looking to straighten it since it’s already straight, just to smooth it out. It looks like shit if I don’t blow dry it, but blow drying is such a pain in the ass.

    So, this threw me for a loop. Was joking around with New Dude and I teasingly asked if he wanted to move in with me.

    Him: In Europe?
    Me: Am I invited?
    Him: For sure!
    Me: I’d come visit you, if you wanted me to
    Him: Yeah for sure, I was under the impression you were going to. It didn’t have to be discussed.
    Me: I was under the impression we weren’t thinking that far ahead.
    Him: Well visiting doesn’t have to imply anything yet. The way we are now I expected that you would.

    I now have absolutely no idea what the deal is with new dude but apparently I’m going to Europe 🙂

    Do it!

    When I was FWB with my husband, he moved away. I was super bummed, and we were totally casual. I moved to that city as soon as I could find a job. He wasn’t the only reason, but he was a big reason. We were still casual for 2-4 months before it got more serious.

    I only wish that was a European city!

    Haha well, even if this doesn’t go anywhere, at least I have someone to stay with in Europe in the spring 🙂

    Wasn’t he talking about you visiting him already, a few weeks ago?

    Yeah he mentioned it but I had no idea he was serious. When we talked about where this is going, he said he really likes what we’ve got going on and doesn’t want to think too far ahead. Which is why I was thrown for a loop when he said he expected that I would. But anyway, at least this makes things fun!
