All I wanted for my Bday was a Nano-titanium flat iron and a heat pass :D Pic

So! I'm hiding my hair til March, on a mission to get to BSB. My hair has been in cornrows for the last 5 weeks or so and I've been cowashing and applying growth aides daily. So far, so good... but then it happened. It may have actually been several things:

1) I saw Fab's hair in her Dreamhair BKT reveal :spinning:; this caused an extreme need to own a nano-titanium flat iron. I did some research and decided on a Croc2 that I ordered from ebay.

2) The Croc2 ARRIVED :yep:

3) This is my birthday weekend

All of these things caused me to HAVE TO flat iron my hair. There was no fighting it. I detangled my hair, shampooed and DC'd with John Freida clear shine glaze mixed with color showers black and Rusk Smoothing Keratin treatment (Fab.... again :rolleyes:)

Pic below. I definitely needed a trim but was too tired to do it last night. I did it this morning before washing my hair in preparation to braid it back up til March. Well, hopefully. Might sneak one more heat pass in there. :lol:

I'm excited. This is officially the longest and healthiest my hair has ever been. And I :heart2: my new flat iron. Yawl can have that Runway for umpteen hundred dollars... I'll take my $85 Croc :yep:

Wow, your hair looks great! So shiny & thick. The first time straightening natural hair can be such a surprise, all that length you didn't know you had!

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :birthday2

WOW!

My first thought was to say why not leave it out for your bday.
... then I realized you must be on to something, so keep doing what you are doing.

Awww thank you so much, Bronze! You are the best.

now tell me more about that Croc...

Girl! That Croc2 is a beast! The plates are so smooth, shiny and reflective, like mirrors.

It's supposed to be some hot new thing in some salons. There is one naturally curly girl on youtube that swears by it because her stylist uses it and she says it makes her hair look naturally straight as opposed to a straightened curly girl; if that makes any sense?

All I know is one swipe at 400 is all I need to get my hair the smoothest it's ever been. I can't wait to use it to do my BKT reveal in March! I'm getting worked up just thinking about it. :lol:


Sheba,

Happy B-day lady!!!! Your hair looks gorgeous! It's really growing and so thick!!! I might need to try those cellophanes, since I dyed my hair back black!

Thank you, Veejee!!! Go for it! Although I don't see how your hair could need any more bling or shine :spinning:

I can't see the pic :-(
Happy bday girl...Mine is tomorrow!!

So is mine, Taf!!! We have the same birthday! :birthday2: Happy birthday to you!!!!

Girl, get you one!! And use Fab's idea to get you an extra 5 to 10%. :yep: Go to bing.com and do a search for "camera". Click on the link to get cash back at ebay and then click on the supplier of your choice and pay with paypal. You can get $8 or more cash back!

Had to stop by and say my my. Your hair has grown extremely well in such a short time with the BKT. It looks healthy, has a lot of body, and straightens beautifully with lots of shine. I am so proud of you for the wonderful progress you are making with your hair.

Now that you've done your length check for this year, and used your one heat pass, put the new, shiny, sleek nano titanium flat iron away before you get too happy with it! :spinning: Your hair is growing like crazy-you'll reach your next goal in no time!
