Wash hair day and retightening thoughts

These are various pictures after my hair has been washed in preparation for my retightening appointment. For the last few weeks I have been thinking about self-retightening due to the travelling distance and financial costs mounting up whilst at university. I wanted to book a retightening course instead of D.I.Y. just so I know how to do my hair the ‘official’ way and to make sure I follow the correct pattern for my hair. So at the next retightening appointment I will ask to be put on the list for the next course which hopefully should be around the end of March (my 8^th month point).

6th month anniversary

I decided to take very few pictures at my 6th month point since my installation. This was mainly due to just remembering before going to bed and I thought that I should take a few pics for the memories lol.

Shrinkage: the deceiver of length

This lock struck me when I got up this afternoon after a late morning clubbing. It is one of the one's that has been re-started and had less shrinkage then the rest, so I just grabbed the chance literally and took a photo.

I always knew the back of my hair grew faster but it's really hard to see without stretching. In a nutshell - my hair is growing yeeyyyy!

In the daylight you can see my texture / progress better without the bright flash.

Edinburgh Trip

Prior to the term starting and as a celebration of the end of exams we took a trip to Edinburgh for a week. We stayed in a hostel which we will not be revisiting again, but overall it was a nice trip minus the hostel lol. Our shopping trip to Glasgow was great but they had too many shops to see lol.

Here are a few random shots of the trip from the start of the journey where I have just finished putting Cocois in my scalp on the train to near the end at a club: Espionage.

On the corner of Princes Street, Edinburgh


Edinbrugh Castle


Scottish Parliament


Holyrood Park - we climbed this and did not find Arthur's Seat!


The Villager Restaurant (my meal consisted of salmon and sweet potato mash, it was yummy!)



Espionage - it was overall satisfactory for a free night however the DJ on the second night was miles better. If it looks a little smokey it's due to the fake steam/smoke machine.

New Years Day

Myself and two good friends of mine went to a house party. I played CD Player DJ for a while before I got bored and went around dancing. We counted down when it was at least 12.05am but we were in high spirits finishing up at 5am.
