I'm back! Sorta

Hi friends,
   It seems like its been ages since I have blogged. I have been terribly ill! For the first time in my life I was hospitalised for malaria and a persistent cough. I'm still recovering  so this post will be short. I have been protective styling with wigs for a couple of weeks now. I simply cornrow my hair, wear my wig and I am good to go. I couldn't do anything with my hair while I was at the hospital so when I was discharged on Thursday my hair was a matted mess. I was really tired but I knew I had to do something. I didnt have the strength to make a detangling cocktail so I decided to improvise. I went under the shower and turned the hot water on and just let it beat down on me,thoroughly saturating my hair. I was there for a long time and when I was tired I used my VO5 conditioner and did some finger detangling. It was so easy! I couldn't believe my eyes. I lost very little hair. When I was done finger detangling I used a wide tooth comb and my hair was a soft fro once again. We certainly learn everyday. The road to recovery has been slow but I will be back on my feet soon and back to blogging again. Have a happy week ahead.
