Finally took the sew-in down...September Progress Pictures

[SimpleKomplexity]

HAD to get a trim when I saw how my ends were looking after I took the sew in down. They weren't split but they were extremely thin so I'm thinking I had about 2 inches of breakage. I told the lady I wanted to keep my length. She told me that was fine, but she thought I needed layers to make my hair look thicker. I said okay hesitantly and held my breath; thankkkk GOD she listened to me. This is my hair after the trim. It seems like I'm never gonna get to BSL lol.

SN: Is it just me or does my hair look dry? I need to give it a moisturizing treatment? It's not shiny like it usually is. Suggestions? I think I need a protein treatment too since I've been in a sew in for a month and a half.

Hey SK!!!!!

Of course I am not a hair expert, but you probably need a protein ( since you just removed the weave) and good deep moisturizing conditioner....

Your hair looks pretty healthy though!!

How long did you keep your sew in installed for?

I'm so jealous! You're past APL! You hair looks great! Thanks for sharing!

 

[SimpleKomplexity]

Nice! Your hair doesn't look dry to me.

Thanks for tellin me that. I think I'm starting to get hair anorexia. I think it's ugly, short, dry, and etc. Right now I'm whining about being BSL, but I just really wanna have some sexy healthy swangin hair.

Very nice-

How long did you keep your sew in installed for?

6 Weeks. I said I was gonna keep it for 2.5 months, but someone told me my hair was going to matt up, and it had started to itch really badly.

Nice progress!
I don't think you hair looks dry, but i'm also with MRJ-since you've just removed an install, it wouldnt hurt to baby you hair up with a protein treatment-

 

[MA2010]

You are making great progress! Your hair is getting long and thick!

 

[TayMac]

Good progress. Your hair looks nice. I can't tell that it is dry but it may be a little dull.

 

[Curlybeauty]

It doesn't look dry, it just aint swangin'. Did she use a lot of oils, and products to weight the hair down?

Nice progress!

Congrats. Are you planning on doing another install again?

Congrats. Are you planning on doing another install again?

Nah I doubt it. I'm scared that it may mess up my ends, and since i have freshly clipped ends I'ma try to KEEP IT that way. So I've been trying to think of what I'm going to do to my hair. I hate buns, but I just might have to resort to that until I get to BSL

Keep up the good work...oh, and your siggy is off the chain!
