I am currently undergoing a minor keratin related crisis.

I put coconut oil in my hair yesterday before washing it, and I thought it put waaaay to much. Like I'm-gonna-fucking-break-out-tomorrow too much. Anyways, that's what I thought. But we'll get back to that.
Now in order to compensate for the "excessive oil," I accidentally overshampooed my hair. With volumizing shampoo. On naturally frizzy hair.
Oops.

And then came time for the beloved conditioner. There was still a little bit left, and I didn't give two shits about getting a new bottle.
Props to my lazy ass for that one.
So a little bit left actually turned out to be like maybe an ounce. Like what am I supposed to do with one singular lonely ounce, condition my (gorgeous) goddamn eyebrows?!?!

*anyone who gives their eyebrows that much love and affection is honestly too good for this world. I appreciate y'all out there.

So basically I overestimated the amount of coconut oil, and consequently overused shampoo and underused conditioner. If anything it should be the freakin other way around!! Co-washing, anyone??

And so I woke up this looking like a neglected Barbie doll.
If you've ever tried to play with a barbie's hair, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

At this point, no amount of leave-in conditioner, frizz taming spray, or Argan oil infused products are helping.

Oh, and also. I'm breaking out.
