    Lol it's not a lot at all. Yeah, I really liked divine but I thought it's just a good time to switch it up. I may go back to it eventually. Dude! I'm so lazy making blog layouts which is why I just have a rotation of old ones I made that I really like.

    And I know! I really want to! It's just no motivation and all my time being taken up by school that stops me. So annoying. I probably will try to write something in my free time since I don't have any cool ideas coming up.

    I currently use Eden Bodyworks Coconut Shea shampoo and Garnier damage eraser conditioner. The conditioner is probably like the least natural/organic thing I use in my hair right now, but it works so I just can't stop lol. I didn't like the shampoo at first but it grew onto me and my current routine gets me very soft, manageable results so I only use heat the night I wash my hair. I also like a lot of OGX shampoos, mainly the biotin one, and the Renpure one. I have a dry scalp so I try to go for things that are really moisturizing. There are a lot of clarifying ones that like REALLY get in there like Carol's daughter monoi shampoo, Shea moisture, etc. The brand of my shampoo also has a clarifying tea tree one which I may pick up when I'm out of my current one.

    I use the castor oil to grow my hair. I've been natural for about 5 years now but my hair went through a lot of heat damage that made it stunt just past my collar bone so I apply it to my scalp as like a leave-in moisturizer if I'm doing my hair myself or as an oil treatment left in for at least 30 mins to an hour if I'm going to a salon to get a blow out (which is rare now). Just applying it to my hair with my other oil (rosehip) and cream leave in really makes a difference because my hair is getting thicker, longer, and growing faster. I've been using it for about I wanna say 3 months now and it's SO thick like the difference between my hair when I started using it and the hair towards the ends that don't get it as much feel different. Now my hair is comfortably past my collar bones too and making their way towards armpit length. I feel like if I keep it up I can reach Olivia's length by the end of this year if not earlier. Especially now since I stopped wearing extensions (even though I miss the length they gave me sometimes).

    Okay lol I'm rambling so I'm gonna shut up rn cause I could really talk about hair, skincare, and makeup all day.

    YO I was stumped for a min with the username change. I like divine but sometimes you gotta change things up. I redid my signature and that was fun. I should do my blog layouts but I'm lazy and I don't even write blogs anymore lol.

    As for writing! GIRL. You've got push and power through. Like just write the shittiest things imaginable, write some scenes, write some dialogue. I was in the same place, and I started writing short stories and rewriting old stuff and just doing anything I could to write something everyday.

    Aren't we all ready for warm weather. I keep getting a taste of it, I thought it was coming, and then we got hit with two nor'easter's smh I need the warmth. I feel like the change from winter to spring is always very inspiring and makes me want to write more.

    What shampoo/conditioner are you using? I tried to go sulfate free but it made my hair feel so oily and I don't really have the kind of hair that gets oily like it takes a week before I need to wash it again but with the sulfate free stuff I just felt very weighed down. What do you use the castor oil for?

    I feel like I just overloaded you here haha but I'm always lurking on your blogs probs time I say hello and all that.
