Ms Kibibi...did you know that YOUR picture was the one that inspired me to start taking better care of my hair in 2007? I saw your picture on the Crown and Glory website (I'm pretty sure you are the same Ms. Kibibi, yes?). I was in Iraq, and I e-mailed it to my husband saying, "I want my hair to look like this." I didn't actually start getting focused until 2008, but THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Your hair is gorgeous and you are an inspiration!!!!
 
Your hair is amazing. You are an inspiration because through all of the setbacks you still persevered. Thanks for sharing your pics.
 
Your hair is sooo gorgeous! You are an honest TRUE inspiration! I love how you never gave up and came back on top of your setbacks. We all should learn from your fine example.

This is oh so true!!

MsKibibi, I love your hair! I like the fact that you are here to help others reach their hair goals. Also, congratulations on your personal and professional accomplishments!
 
What brand and type (lye or no-lye) are you currently using? How long have you been using it? Thanks.

I use Affirm Lye in regular. I've been using it since 2003-2004. I think i've tried one other relaxer during that time, but it gave me different results than the Affirm. Since I texlax now, and I have my self relax process mastered, I probably won't ever switch b/c I always get even results.

Hey there! Long time, no see!! Thanks for sharing your latest pics. I totally understand the setbacks and regaining what was lost. Been there. You're out of grad school and married?!!! Has it been that long?

Hey OneShinyface! It has been that long indeed. How are you? You are one of my original inspirations especially during my setbacks. I remember your pics of how your hair started shedding like crazy and you bounced back.
 
Wow, mskibibi, your hair looks great. I'd be curious to see what the texture looks like wet.

Sure, I have pictures of my wet texlax texture and my hair as child in this video. http://www.youtube.com/user/mskibibi?feature=mhw5#p/u/7/9mWOJ5TRYtY


What are your short and long term goals?

Short term - Continue to perfect my regimen. It's a process and while I've had setbacks b/c I tried something new lol I'm still open minded to finding new products, so I don't go crazy when a product is discontinued (like when they got rid of the CON conditioner with the purple label, anyone remember that?).

Oops, I forgot to add my long term goals -
- The bottom two inches of my nape is much shorter than the rest of my hair. I plan to grow out the nape area, so it's the same length as the rest of my hair.
- I also want to have full waist length all around, right now the front is about BSL.
- Super thick ends. I had a moment of inspiration/madness last year and gave myself layers. I ended up thinning out my 'weight line'.

Aww thanks for sharing. Yes, I'm the same MsKibibi on the C&G website.

Glad you're back! Your hair is doing so well!

Hi NikStar! Congrats on your new baby! I was so excited for you when I saw that (back when I was still lurking lol).
 
Wow! Your hair looks great! Congrats on passing the bar and on the wedding.

What kind of flatiron do you have? Your flatironed hair looks great also.
