Hello All!
I've never formally introduced myself so here goes:
I started my journey with a BC in September 2007. I remained natural for 9 months before relaxing again. I relaxed June 2008.
Over the past 2 years I've probably done everything to my hair that brought me to the point of BCing the first time...
January 2008 4 Months After BC:
November 2008: Longest layer was SL, everything else was short:
December 2008 This was right after cutting the longest layer off the first time:
July 2009:
BKT...dun, dun, dunnnn....
September 2009 Had to Chop from BKT Damage, colored with Bigen Oriental Black
Once again the longest layer was cut off the back, and about an inch all over:
December 2009 Most Layers Out!:
Trying to Show a lil swang, swang!
Need to Dust my Ends in the back.
Don't let the looks fool you...
Overall, I'm grateful that I still have hair. My hair could be healthy APL by now, now it's just brittle SL.
It's dry and breaking like crazy right now. I'm trying to hold onto it this time and bring it back.
I regret relaxing too often (every 6-8 weeks, bad I know) coloring like 2 times with demi, bleached highlights, bigen twice, and BKT. I'm throwing in the towel...
I've seen people come back from worse, so i'm hopeful. I'm just kinda mad that I had to bump my head this many times before realizing simple is better.
I've done wayyyyy to much to my hair the past 2 years, and it's finally catching up to me...we'll see how 2010 goes, all I know is it's going to be K.I.S.S. all the way.
Thanks for viewing/listening!
