[Lanea87]

Doing good, I have some henna on my head as I type and sitting under my conditioning cap letting it marinate. After taking this out I will be doing a DCand putting in my curlformers. I may come back with a picture later.....

 

[aa9746]

I'm in the process of detangling. I'm tempted to use direct heat but so far I'm still resisting the urge.

 

[Lanea87]

I am DCing at the moment after I wash out, I am going to try doing a ponytail roller set using about 5 ponytails and 2 rollers on each. I hope it works out well.....

 

[Lanea87]

^^^I didnt like the way it came out, I will try again and try to perfect over the summer so I can wear more rollersets nxt semester.
It wasnt bad it was just not as cute as I see the eladies do it on YT. Maybe I should have did a wrap afterwards.....

 

[winona]

Still no broken rules since my 2-3inch cut in the back. I have been banana clip bunning bc I am extra lazy and can't seem to shake it

 

[Lanea87]

DCing at the moment with Giovanni SAS and 50:50 with a tbs of Safflower Oil.....will sit under the heating cap for like 45mins and cool off for 15 mins

P.S. I swear it be like ghost town in here, where is evryone?

 

[DesignerCurls]

[MsEveMarie]

Still hanging in there, not sure about my progress tho. I seem to be getting an inch a month of growth but I'm not sure about retention I really should have been taking pictures smh just been so busy... Guess I'll start today may 1 lol 4 months late but better late than never...I actually forgot about the rule and was going to update in June when I straighten and dust oh well. I'm a little discouraged but not down!

 

[ZkittyKurls]

So far so good. Ive been having my hair in twists the majority of the time. Right now im contemplating a weave install for the next two months, but i dunno yet. i will post if i do decide to get it or not.

I'll have a lot of detangling to do but I'm not too worried since I've done this before. Hoping for a lot of retention by Dec. This is my 3rd bootcamp and it works so I'm here though I don't post daily. hhj hhg
