My hair jounrery

Here are some comparison pics that I compiled. I started my hair journey in 2009 with ver damaged transitioning hair. I NEVER DID THE BIG CHOP !!! lol I just simply STOPPED getting relaxers. Didn't know a Thing about hair. Three years later, after visiting multiple hair boards,, learning as mucha s I can, here I am at nearly BSL.

Since then my hair has had a few set backs. I left for college nd thought getting micro braids were a good idea. NOOO NEVER AGAIN!!! I had excessive shedding a loads of split ends and a lot of breakage . So I have been on the road to getting it back on track. I am currently in a hide your hair challege were I hide my hair in buns, braids, weaves for the next 5-6 months.

 

Hopefully this will allow me to retain a good amount of length for the summer.

With the weaves/extentions I usually keep them in for 10-12weeks MAX at  a time. Take them out and then let my hair out for a week then put it back in.. Sometimes I leave my edges out and monitor the growth of those

Natural Hair Inspiration

Rochelle Jordan^

As a natural, I sometimes get the urge to go  back to relaxers. I have been on this hair journery for quite some time and I find that I constantly have to remind myself that PATENCE is key and that with the proper care My hair can be thick, and sexy too. I want that blow in the wind hair
