Hello again everyone! It has been awhile since I've been on the forums. I have spent the past year working hard so that I could be accepted to nursing school. I start a registered nurse program in a month and am so thankful that all of my hard work has finally paid off!
Anyway, I have had a lot of trial and error with my hair this past year. I have now decided to transition for the third time, and I am sticking to this transition till the end this time. I have finally found my staples, have my regimen down packed, and am doing it all with only three products. I have such a busy schedule with college and work and I needed a simple regimen that I could stick with. I currently wash my hair hair once a week with Aveda Damage Remedy shampoo (expensive stuff, but my hair has been spoiled and won't tolerate any other shampoo), condition my with Queen Helene Cholesterol and a plastic cap for one hour, and then I have recently been using Wild Growth Hair Oil lightly every other day. I admit that it does have a smell to it, but it really doesn't bother me. I put it on at night, put my satin scarf on, and by morning it soaks into my scalp and I personally don't smell it anymore.
I really feel that with this regimen I will be able to do a full transition this time. I am currently 6 months post and my hair has been the most manageable it has ever been. I really owe that to the WG hair oil, though. I can't believe I didn't try it sooner. I would have been able to transition successfully if I had. I also don't feel the need to retouch with a flat iron all the time. And I have three textures: my new growth, my texlaxed hair, and my relaxed hair. I can't tell the difference between my new growth and texlaxed hair, so I have no idea what my natural texture is.
Sorry for the long post, but I am so grateful for this forum. I have a few 6 months post pictures that I am attaching. I know I will be extremely busy when I start nursing school next month, so I am not sure how often I will be able to update. However, I will be sure to post an update on my 12 month mark. I don't plan on doing a BC any time soon. I am going to continue with my regimen and sees what happens. I really feel that this transition is going to be a breeze. I am so excited about it!
