WANTED: Progress Pics: After the BC...

[Channie]

I did this before when I was relaxed. Now, I want to see the naturals.

I'm looking for the women who BC'd at least a year ago and made good progress (be it length or just health). ALL Types welcome. Just need to see some progress. Even if you relaxed again, if you have your natural pics on hand somewhere, it'd be great to see them. I'm hoping this will help some of us with TWAs have something to learn from, look forward to, and possibly gage our own progress.

Pictures, Fotki links, or even directions to a Fotki album are greatly appreciated.

I have been natural for almost 8 months.

Very, very nice and quite the inspiration. Thank you.

[Channie]

Ha, I was just in your Fotki after seeing your year end comparison.
Lovely! Thank you BostonMaria!

BC Dec 07 -> current Dec 08

I transitioned under a lace front and unfortunately I didn't know how to take care of my natural hair till this summer.

i'm ashamed to say my hair never saw conditioner the year I was wearing the lace front.

If I only knew then what I know now....

 

[cmesweet]

My fotki is in my signature...I'm am 4.5 years natural.

 

[Junebug D]

Well... I was bald in June of '07. And I just really "joined" LHCF and got serious about my hair in the last few weeks, so this is just after so-so care all year.

Your hair is growing fast

 

[suburbanbushbabe]

April 2007 and a couple of weeks ago. My last cut that got me totally natural was 10/06, but I didn't get a camera until March 07.

I want a DNA transplant with LeiLei and Shalilac. That is some fabulous growth.
