Lovely!! You got them done at a salon?


I did, there is a girl at job, she puerto rican, but her is alway on point w/ the color. So i went to her stylist. I think she is so professional, she straighten, highlighted and trimmed for $75. I think that was a good deal. I will proably start going to her every few weeks for conditioning because i never dealt with color before.

that looks really pretty!! loving your THICK HAIR!!

Oh thanks girl! I attribute the thickness to taking the chlorella supplement, and my vitamin reggie, being natural and not really doing too much to manipulate it.

OH! and how could i forget- MEGATEK! i use it about every 2-3 wks for like 5-10 minutes but it strenghtens my hair, it barely breaks off, so that too.

You know, i really didn't know how they would come out either, the stylist was so sweet, she really is a professional, i told her i want something to compliment my skin tone, not too light, i forgot my hair magazine, but she knew what she was doing, so if you are in the tampa bay area, check out studio 8850- jennifer!
 
Beautiful, I like them not too blonde, that's a good thing. I'm ladies, but my hair hates bleach......I was thinking about getting something when I reach BSL....I like them.....
 
I actually did get highlights done when i was relaxed and hated it, it wasn't even as light but still my hair broke off bad, and my one of my brother's said i looked like a pumpkin head! Lol, thats really when i went natural and bc ( really it happened like that, all in the same day). I really didn't take good care of my relaxed hair to begin with.


Anyways, i had wanted to try color before, so im glad i gave it another chance, i have been using vatika oil daily, and just wrapping it at night.

I am not conceded either, this chick got all in face when i was trying to walk down the hall to my desk, didn't say nothing either, basically blocked my walkway so she could starre at me, i just was stunned and moved around so i could k.i.m, the 1st day after i got i done, i though it must have looked bad,because everyone looked and didn't say anything except like an old white lady, i really felt self concious like maybe i made a mistake, but i when't to the mall, i found i was looking good, and i know the hair made the difference. lol i talk too much ;p

You know there are some relaxed women on the board with highlighted hair, maybe some of them could chime in, i know for me it didnt work out, my hair wasn't strong enough to do both, i guess.
 
its so pretty! i said i would never get highlights again.... but its somethin goin around here lol. has me rethinking that decision once i'm fully natural.
