I Am So Blessed

I'm easy going.
So I pretty much went from BSL to WL in one year?

Just wanted to show y'all were I was exactly one year ago.


In one year I could have lost some weight, but you know how that goes LOL

JUNE 5TH 2018 I will be three years natural. And 3 years post relaxer.


On the first picture, all the writing was just me taking notes at the time lol

Thank you all!!:bighug::bighug:
What I believe contributed to this success of retaining every inch (on my 4B hair) in one year is:

Focusing on my goals. In the first picture I was precisly at BSL. So I drew lines and imagined my hair at WL and did all I had to do to get there.

1. I washed my hair every two weeks in twists. I put clips at the end of every twist while washing to prevent tangles.

2. I Deep condition for an hour with a heat cap.

3. I air dry in chunky twists with clips on ends for weight/stretch.

4. I moisture and seal.

5. I twist it and don't comb/detangle it until the next two weeks on wash day.

Retaining is more to do with technique than what products I use.

Here are the simple old school products I use.

I DC with Hollywood Beauty Cholesterol, I moisturize with Care Free Curl Activator, And I seal with BlueMagic grease (I heavily seal my ends with grease). That's it!
