22 Months Natural Update (Protective Styler)

[MsAminta]

Heyyyyy ladiessss! I just wanted to share my most current hair update with you. Attached are my comparison shots. The comparison of my big chop to one year later really amazes me. You see other people do it, but it's so cool when it actually happens to you.

Special thanks to protective styling and LHCF! (I LOVE me some protective styling. Waiting patiently for my favorite half wig to get here. )

In case anyone wants to know:
Last relaxer: October 1, 2010
Big chop: July 24, 2011
Protective style 90% of the time

Boootaaayyyy length hair, here I comeeeee!

girlfromipanema I use mainly wigs as my protective style. I tried crochet braids once, a weave once, and braids/kinky twists/yarn twists several times.

Wonderful growth!!

manter26 I wanna try your mini braid method, but I'm afraid I'll quit half way through.

Oh I am loving it! Congrats MsAminta! I love protective styling too. It's really making a difference in my hair. So much that I've been wearing them 90% of the time too. At least until I reach my goal.

You should give a go! If you feel like quitting just cornrow the front to save time and energy.

So glad I can be an inspiration! Transitioning wasn't too hard for me because I hid my hair under weaves, wigs, and braids. That makes it a cinch!
