Oh My Goodness...I Can't Believe It! Have I Finally Defeated Shrinkage?!

[kblc06]

No peeking









No. BUT, my wash n go is now past SL ! It's been so long since I've done one, I've almost forgotten how . I know for a fact I'm BSL stretched, but I'm going to wait till the end of this month (or early April) to flat-iron just to be absolutely sure. I'm so excited you guys- BSL has eluded me forever. My hair is 80-90% dry in these pics, but it has pretty much shrunk all it's going to.

95% Dry

For Comparison (This was my hair in March 2008):

Is your hair wet or dry in these pics?

Your hair is very pretty!

 

[BlairWaldorf]

what product (s) did you use ?

 

[kblc06]

Is your hair wet or dry in this pic?

It was about 80-90% dry in the first 5 pics and 95% dry in the last 2. I used Long aid curl activator gel + GVP "The Conditioner" +Fantasia IC (for hold), so it has a glossier "wet Jheri curl finish" . It'll wear off in a few days.

[kblc06]

Just to give you an idea, this is the length of my wash n go in March 2008

It appears that you have tamed shrinkage! Congrats! BTW, you hair is drool-worthy!

 

[godsflowerrr]

[Ms_CoCo37]

GORGEOUS! I can't wait until my wash 'n go looks like yours! My shrinkage is ridiculous!...

But I secretly love the element of surprise when I do finally straighten it out and people see just how much hair I have.

 

[SoAnxious12]

What did you do different this time or over time?

I haven't really done anything differently, my hair has just grown. In the March 2008, I used Ganier Fructis Styling puddy (discontinued ) and Fantasia IC gel. But what's interesting is that my curls look larger in the 2008 picture.
