Couldn't pick a favorite, so I have a few posted below:

Picture above is from 5/6 months into my transition to natural - this is a dominican blowout - I used to LIVE by these before I stopped relaxing​

Picture above is my free style fro/puff - no product, air dried - this past summer (so a little over a year after my last relaxer)​

Pics above are straightened hair (another dominican blowout), but this time, I was completely natural - and I had no damage post-blowout! (You can even see the pins or "pinchos" I use to keep my curls)​

Pics above are twisted hairstyles​

My most recent avatar (4/23) for Fotki - just carefree frizzy hair (my norm)...​

Sorry I put so many pics up - I really love the idea of this album though! Keep the pics coming! I tip my hat to the ladies with all the fly pics on this thread before me (there are FAR too many to list!)​

Aw thank you. I have the best hair dresser in the world. If I didn't know better, I would say my hair was relaxed. My oldest baby took that pic. I think she did a great job. Glad to see you posting more. Q

 

[kelkel]

notworthy .......everyone's hair is absolutely gorgeous !!!.... I was just thinking to myself WOW.... BLACK HAIR IS TRULY BEAUTIFUL.....

despite what the establishment tries to tell us. -- What other group of women have so much variety???? None! .....

I am loving the natural curls, coils, fros and the straight and shiny and bouncy.... and all the thickness !!!! too much for me.

It really makes me proud.....sorry for getting so preachy but this thread is just more then enough confirmation that we are TRULY FIERCE !!!!

I love this pic because my hair look fluffy (and it usually isn't). The stylist who did my hair in this pic is the best stylist I've ever had ... too bad she moved to Connecticut.

Your hair look lovely! Good luck during the rest of your transition.

Wow, Ladies!! Awesome hair. I darn near had to jump back from the screen. Here's my contribution.

Your hair looks wonderful in all your pictures, but I especially love the twists and your 'carefree frizzy' style at the end. One of the best twists I've seen...EVER.



ALL of you ladies are inspirations and have beautiful hair! I could'nt quote all the pictures on this thread, but these are the ones I absolutely love.
Shame I can't add any ... AH, one day...:scratchch

Omg, can someone please start a hairbook. This thread is insane, so many women can benefit from these hair journeys. A book along with members hair and skincare products/regimes... Maybe different chapters featuring different hair types or individual stories. I can see so many women picking up the book from say the shelves of Carol's Daughter or something. I dunno' just a thought!

This can be an intimidating job to take on alone, mainly because of research, accuracy, and such, so I think a team would work well to accomplish this if members are interested!

[serenity326]

Thanks for the compliments ladies! I am happy to report that I did both twist styles myself!

For the really small twists that are hanging down, those took 12+ hours to do and I wore a half wig over the course of a weekend until I finished. I used a shea butter mix that I purchased at another fellow natural's hair site. If you are interested you can click here to learn more. I didn't use any parts and I just watched a ton of movies and twisted my hair in sections. My hair was air dried in braids so it was slightly stretched and then I applied her shea butter mix to each section and twisted. Each twist when stretched was just slightliy larger than coffee stirrer size, but with the shrinkage and swelling, they look much larger than that!

For the twist updo, those twists took about 4-5 hours and were done with miss jessie's curly pudding which gave my twists out of control shine!!! I hated how thin it made my twists though, so I attempted to do a french roll, and using a TON of pins to keep the twists in place that were too short to reach. The style is more a lucky unintended consequence of my frustration with the ugly twists! But the outcome was great!

I hope that was helpful! Please keep the pictures coming! I love looking at natural, relaxed, tex-laxed, jherri curled, and everything in between hair!!!
