Comparison shots of shrinkage my first two years

These were I think very early last year?

This was sometime around the end of last year.

I turned this

Into this about a week ago.


I honestly don't know how long it is because I have not looked at it straigthen. But I won't be doing another measurement until the summer months. But rest assured the shrinkage is a DOOZY!!!!

I can add this little adventure from a few weeks ago.

Here it is the Thursday night I think

And here it is that Saturday after 5 hours of pressing and still not being able to show 4 additional inches of hair because it kept shrinking while I was flat ironing.

 

[JustKiya]

Ooohweee!! Some lovely hair & amazing shrinkage!!

I'll have to see if I can arrange a pic - I normally don't let my hair shrink up - takes too long to detangle, afterwards!

And old pic showing shrinkage:

And another more recent one. Small section in the back pressed (last year):

Same area after being wet and air-dried (just now):

Undercover is right, it is more like a double agent . Anyone want to complain about shrinkage or just want to see some incredible pics of before and after shrinkage, pleeeeeeessssseeeeeee come see me and my fotki.

I promise if I ever put a hot come or flat iron to use or even do one of those roller sets on natural hair (whch is what I have been eyeing seriously) I will post pics from every single angle.

You ladies have some mad mad shrinkage going on. My hair is still to short to tell any growth. As a matter of fact it seems my hair is'nt budging. But maybe that's my imagination too!!!

 

[SUPER SWEET]

I just got rid of the kayne west thing in the back

 

[Bigghair]

Shrinkage is so amazing. Beautiful hair ladies! Here is a picture of my shrinkage.

WOW!!! And I thought I had shrinkage

All this shrinkage is pretty cool. Not only can our hair be kinky one day and straight the next, it can also be long one day and short the next. Love the versatility!

I don't have any new pics, but the this pic shows shrinkage from a few years ago. If I let my hair shrink up now, it'd still look almost the same.

This pic is my hair stretched in July 2008.
