It's been about a year since I joined...

[MsQ]

I don't post on here often because I've gotten lazy. I decided to take a picture today because I realized it's been about a year since I joined. Some people had been commenting on how my hair has grown so much, but I didn't really notice...

Well, a picture(s) really is worth 1,000 words...


Thank you, ladies, for all of your hair knowledge!

Thank you!

I have been sooooo slippin' on my regimen alllll winter!

Prior to the winter, I dc and cw2-3 times per week. I can't rollerset very well so I would just throw my hair into a ponytail and put one roller on it so the ends can dry straight.

I used to use BeeMine, but ran out and never re-ordered . (Which reminds me that I need to do so because that did help a lot over the summer...)

Since the winter, I get my hair done by the Dominicans once every two weeks. If I am up to 6 weeks post, no blow dry. After that, I blow dry. The off weeks that I don't go to the salon, I dc/cw once/week.

I have stretched my last two relaxers at least 3 months.

But what has REALLY helped me is PRAYER!!!

 

[darlingdiva]

Excellent growth!!!

 

[caribgirl]

That is great progress!!! Congrats!!

 

[Solitude]

Beautiful progress....I'm always intrigued by people who don't post that much & are doing so well on their HCJ. Thanks for sharing!

The roller on the end also adds some body to my ponytails/buns.

I haven't trimmed in a looooooooooooong time. I don't think I've trimmed since joining LHCF.

As for when I go to the Dominican salon, I only get blowouts after I am well past my touch-up...whenever the ng starts getting difficult...
