felt kinda shame to put these up as you guys are the best at styling whereas me um :look:......

i dont have a proper reggie well only recently before the chop i would wash when i felt like it:look::ohwell:

i now wash every 10 days may stretch to 14 days dont judge me

i cant find longaid here :sad: so until i do i just use world of curls as a leave in till my next wash (i mix it with one tablespoon of silk amino powder i have done the same for eco styler)

use this brand for shampoo and conditoner http://www.nakedbodycare.co.uk/naked-rescue-intensive-care-shampoo-frizzy-damaged-hair.html

use tresmme naturals smooth and moisture for detangling and leave in thats all i have in my hair in the big chop pics

i always prepoo with coconut oil and another cheapie coconut conditioner left in overnight with hair wrapped in cling flim and silk scarf on top i have LOW porosity hair doing this defines my curls as the frizz has been reduced since going CG :yep:

It's so crazy how different new growth looks from the big chop. Love your hair, it's beautiful!


thanks for posting :grin:very true about how different the hair looks after the chop i didn't believe it when i read others say it....well shame on me they were right:lachen::lachen:
i transitioned for nearly 2 and a half years and you would have thought that would be more than enough time to know what my hair will look like after the chop

Wow! Beautiful hair. What a long successful stretch! It has been 8 months for me and I am going through the flux. I can't imagine that I would have any hair left after 2.5 years!! Congrats!
