Hey ladies,
It's my 2 year anniversary on LHCF. I've come such a long way - from SL to WL in the last two years. At each milestone, I thought, if I just reach the next step, I'll be satisfied. But...here I am two years later, and I'm still reaching for more. I'm absolutely thrilled with my hair right now, but I'm still trying to get that full, thick, waist length look.
I waited until the very last day to renew my membership before it expired because I considered not renewing. I've learned so much, and I felt like I could maintain my hair on my own. But...I just can't seem to let go.
This forum has taught me how to really care for my hair. At one time, I thought because my hair was so thick, that it could endure anything. Coloring, pressing WITH a relaxer, rough combing, harsh shampoos, etc. Now I know better.
I have to give a million thanks to Cleve_gryl whose advice about rollersetting has completely turned my hair around. It seemed like I would never get it right, but she answered all of my questions, and now I'm a pro.
Unfortunately, in the two years that I've been here, I haven't quite figured out how to put pictures in the thread, so I'm just going to attach a couple. The picture in the black shirt was in 2006 right before I found LHCF. The turquoise sweater is yesterday (3/5/09). I hope you all don't mind front shots. The rest are in my fotki.
Thanks ladies!

I'm just like that. If only my hair would grow to the next milestone. 
What's your regimen?? I didn't see it in Fotki.
