No Poo Update & Mathematician Records Updates

First of all, I would like to let everyone know how my No Poo experiment is going.

I am currently at Day 92 of No Poo. At Day 46 of No Poo, I switched over to Water Only, which will now be abbreviated to WO. I am now 46 days into WO washing, though I do wash my head every once in a while with ACV when the flakes get unbearable. I usually wash my hair every 6-8 days with WO, though I'm considering washing my hair every 5 days and see where that gets me.

In these last 46 days of WO, I've gone through yet another vigorous transition. Now that I'm not using anything but water and the seldom ACV rinse, my scalp had gone into overload in producing sebum.

Day 58 of No Poo, 12 days of WO, I thought my hair looked awesome until I looked at my hairline. So much sebum built up! It was awful, and I dealt with that for quite a bit... I have noticed, though, that in the last two weeks, I haven't had a crazy build up like that on my hairline, though it still gets itchy and flakey.

I started scritching and preening my hair, which is basically massaging with the balls of my fingers against my scalp to break up the build up and then preening is to spread those oils down the length of my hair. I don't do it as often as people generally suggest, but with the brushing of my paddle brush and my boar bristle brush (BBB), my hair is still relatively manageable.

Overall, my hair still isn't where I'd like it to be. Since I switched over to WO instead of the BS/ACV mix, my hair needs to go through probably another 40 days or so to get over switching to WO. But I will stay resilient and get through it, because I believe in low-maintenance, no-chemical hair! For now, I just keep my hair up most of the time except for the two days after I initially "wash" it, then it's up for a few days, then I wash it, it's down for a few days, then up again...etc.

Website Updates

Wow! It's already September...and quite well over a year since our last blog update, haha. I'm not much of a blogger, I guess!

So, let's get up to speed. Stewart has been working very diligently on our website, Mathematician Records!

I know I've probably gone over this before, but I'll do it again. This website is GREAT. The link is here: Mathematician Records It's an online art and music gallery, but also a shop! So far everything is for sale. I make pointy hats and dream catchers and Stewart produces music. We've got quite a few other artists that are a part of our label now and the actual CDs we sell are really wonderful, high quality. If you're looking for some great art as well as some crystal sounds, I definitely recommend it. We are still open for more artists who would like to get their experimental/psytrance music out there, as well as any artisan crafters or painters or what-have-you.

So far, with crafts, I am the only one up there... StrawFarmHat!  

 

That there is my latest hat called Mythical Gold. It's super comfy and the colors are magnificent. I am willing to make a hat to order as I still have plenty of stocked yarn.  You can find pictures of the dream catchers on the site and I have plenty more hats on there, too. 

Besides CDs, Stewart offers other audio services including graphic design. Audio Services, this link will take you to the overview of his services as well as some contact information.

We still have another year with the payments on the land, but we are standing diligently. We are always accepting donations, which will go straight to the farm and the website, and is completely, entirely, whole heartedly appreciated and welcomed. Stewart and I would both like to spread out our thanks to EVERYONE who has helped us so far, and for whoever will join forces with us in the future! Thank you. Namaste.
