My pic is in my siggy, its from December. I haven't trimmed since then, and I hope I am gaining some length. I had a setback with trying to relaxer stretch. My hair was breaking off big time at the line of demarcation. I stretched from November 7th January 27th. I had a lot of hairs popping off. I had to do some serious aphogee treatments, and touch up my relaxer to get the breaking to stop. I also have cut out my heat, no blowdryer, just the hood dryer for rollersets or air drying. My flat iron misses me, but its just too much going on with this cold weather. Oh, I have also added dominican products into my routine, the Acetite de Olivia shampoo and conditioner, and the Lacio Lacio leave in. It makes my hair very soft and it seems like I just relaxed it yesterday instead of almost a month ago.
