:yep: I Finally Did It Gurls!!! YIPPPEEEEEEEE!!!!!

I have to put "BC" in quotes because the longest amount of hair I chopped was maybe 5 inches. But it was still significant.:grin:

Okay, so my last texlax was August 07. On June 5, 2009 I "BC"d.
Here's my journey/progress report from last month: http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=361685&highlight=progress+report

I'm so happy to be natural, even though I still have more to snip away.

I posted the full story and all the pix on my blog (http://longnaturalhair.blogspot.com), but here are a few!

BEFORE:

DRYing, but not 100% there yet:

And the back....I was LMAO when I saw those lil danglers at the bottom....

All in all, the cut is laughable and I'll definitely get it shaped up by mike soon. It seems to be drying into a pyramid, not a good look. BUT, I love it nonetheless:yep: I'm so happy and somehow...relieved to have chopped those scraggly ends off.

It's a whole new ball game now!! I's Natchal Now!!

I'll post some more pics of how it looks fully dried as well as how it looks after I trim some more of the rogue texlaxed bits off.

Whatcha think?

*********************UPDATE***************************

So here are some of the dry photos.
You can see the need to keep snipping.
It's VERY uneven. (i still love it)

Congrats on finally taking the plunge. :grin:

A side or zigzag part can help offset the pyramid effect until you get a chance to have it shaped.
