So I haven't been on in a while. The weight loss mission sort of took over (as well as life, kids, job loss 
) but you all have always been in my heart! I had planned to do the BC for New Year's Even 2011/2012, but my dear 16 year old cousin visiting from Cali is going to Deva Chan for a trim and begged me to do my BC with her on the same day.
I'm a sucker for the wee ones, so I said "OK. I really didn't want to do a salon BC, because I'm about 90% sure they will cut more than I want (as is always the case with my salon experiences--even the good ones) but I am firm believer in "eh, it grows back." So, I've lowered my expectations and i'm definitely ready.
I'm 4 months shy of two years post relaxer. I've been comfortable with my natural texture for a while but for me it has been being ready to rock short hair. I'm ready now. My relaxed hair is stringy, tangly, and just "extra" now. I have a feeling I might be using words like "Bozo the Clown" and "Sideshow Bob" after this "Deva Cut" experience, but I'm going to go in with clear explanations of what I want, my expectations, and my reservations. Hopefully, they will be respectful and will not send me running to the first relaxer stylist or weaveologist I can find! LOL
Well, wish me luck. My fam is probably going to flip out. (Hubby is supportive, though)

Good job!
