Hey ladies, I am loving this thread....i am currently transitioning but I am so ready to BC. I am 19 months post (20 months on 23rd of Dec.). Really want to wait until 24 months post (April 23 rd my goal) but I might BC at the end of the year. I am currently in a sew-in because it will keep me from cutting and I am in the HYH challenge. I'm happy to be a part of this army....HHJ ladies.

Thanks! All I do is in the morning I wash my face with St. Ives green tea cleanser then apply some Kiss My Face Natural Ultra Moisturizer olive and aloe. In repeat at night.

Hi Ladies
Another 4b Natural checking in. I am a little past APL--when Stretched my hair is just grazing the top of BSB. My goal is WL with long layers. Here are a few pic’s from my December 4th takedown. I will officially hit my two year HHG anniversary in early Jan, so hoping to squeeze out another ½ inch of growth.

^^^ Now that's a gorgeous head of hair!!!^^^ Off to stalk your fotki!

 

[Pooks]

My hair is still in the minibraids - they're about 3 weeks old now. I'm deciding whether to convert them into twists (with braided roots as is my custom), or take them out and do something different until the New Year.

*Gulp* I just posted my intro You Tube vid! I have always hidden my face on forums and fotki, so my unmasking is a big thing for me.

 

[ceecy29]

I'm slowly but surely crawling my way to longer 4b hair. I have a fotki documenting my journey and I will post pics of my recently straightened hair. I got it done at the Domincan Essence in Brooklyn sometime in November. I hope to inspire and be inspired. HHG my fellow 4bs!!!

Shrinkage pre-straightening:


Straightened hair. I'm somewhere around BSL:

Welcome @NYsister, @transitioning, and all the other 4b-ers who've decided to join our little community. This thread's only a couple of weeks old, but there's already so much information here. Thanks to everyone for your contributions!

@Mwedzi- are you allowed to say who the stylist is who's training your hair? I saw on your fokti that stylist apparently approached you, so I don't know if you can.....but since we're both in the DMV area I thought I'd give it a shot

Yes, it's Reniece. She straightened my hair today, trimmed, and took pictures. When she sends them to me, I'll make a thread.

Yaaaayyy! Both for the upcoming Mwedzi flat iron thread, and for the fact that it is Reniece. Not that I will ever get one of those elusive flat iron appts with her, but a girl can dream lol......

Thanks!!! Shrinkage is truly amazing. I had the dress made for a naija (I'm Nigerian) party; it was my friend's dad 70th birthday.

I'm getting excited just thinking about it, I truly have a hair problem. Your hair is so fab!!!! I'm so scared to go to a stylist, I think I have a phobia for real. I can't wait to see your hair, I bet it's WL
