Two years ago, around the end of September/beginning of October (cant remember which) is when I ended my relationship with the relaxer. Yay! I transitioned for 6-7 months and then BC'd in April of 08.



Here are some growth shots. My head is not perfectly straight in both of these, but I am bad at doing this, so forgive me. It may not be perfect, but it shows marked progress. My nape does not grow/retain length as well as the front. It also shrinks up more.


The first pictures are from this past April.

And from my baby natural days, about a month after my BC:

So I'm at 2 years of growth. I haven't measured in awhile and don't really have a desire to. My plans for future growth? More of the same: protective styles, eating well, lots of moisture, minimal trimming. I would like to be at least BSL stretched but we will see :)


And here's my braidout from today:

Do you mean transition pictures? Or do you mean closer to BC? I'll see what I can dig up. I don't know that I have any exactly from 2 years ago though

It's pretend thickness...my hair takes up a lot of space because of how coily it is...but I don't really have a lot of strands :sad:.

I'm slightly obsessed with making my strands thicker :lachen:.
 
Your hair is beautiful. I love your braid out pics. Is that how you primarily style your hair?
 
Your hair is gorgeous, OP! Can't wait to be where you are. Continued success on your HHJ!
 
:love5: Your braidout is beautiful! Congrats on your progress
