Remember when I cut my BSL hair 3 months ago? http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=419222&highlight=

Well here is a progress pic, it's not much:look: but I'd say it's ok for only 3 months.

My stylist gave me a very minor dust. My hair is cut in a V and is uncombed so that's why it looks like that. It's so hard taking a progress pic by yourself, I tried over and over so this is it! :lachen:

Also, my ends are a little frizzy, they got a little wet from when I went out dancing last night :look:.
Just wanted to share!

Beautiful hair!

Thanks!

At the time my reggie was wash and condition every 2 weeks (I didn't DC). Dry under the pibbs until almost dry, blow dry, flat iron with Chi. I use serum in between washes. I think the fish oil I was taking may have helped but I know for a fact my ends favor serums. When I use oil they start snagging on each other. I think the serum protects them better.

I'm going back to washing once a week tho because my scalp started to feel icky so since I'll be manipulating more, I'll go back to DCing probably.
 
Hey Homie!

You made good progress, I don't know what you talkin bout :lol:
 
Yowsa! Your hair grew very fast! Great progress!
 
Looks gorgeous! I thought you were transitioning though?

Thank you!
I give up at three months every time :lachen: I actually could have stretched a little longer, I think the fish oil made my hair much softer so this stretch was very easy. I'm happy being relaxed because detangling is such a chore for me and I am too impatient.
 
Nice progress. But, wow your skin is flawless!:blush:
 
Great progress! Nice and full. Was it just the stretch or did you change your regi to grow it like this in three months?

Thank you!

I have always stretched 10-12 weeks because I didn't see the need in relaxing any sooner. I have been taking fish oil and using serum instead of oil, which causes my hair to snag. I think this combo helped :yep:

I think i'm confused about this part :look:
So you are using serums throughout the week in between washes to keep your hair in check? I'm kind of embarrased to mention what else I thought you might have meant. Clarification please :yep:
 
Great job :clap:

What size/color flexi rods did you use in your signature :look:?

That's exactly what I meant :lachen:What did you think I meant? You can PM me, I wana laugh lol

I don't use water based moisturizers because I wear my hair straight. I tried oils and butters over and over and each time when I use them my ends start to snag on each other and snap. When I use serum, my ends stay smooth, so I guess that helps me retain length. I look at serums like almost using a polish to cover and protect your nails, if that makes sense.
 
That is some great progress! Your hair always looks gorgeous. So much body. Love it! :)
 
Beautiful hair, btw what serum do you use and do you only apply it to your ends?

Thanks
 
Sooooo shtow...you attempting transitioning anytime soon


keep me posted because I might be looking for a buddy within the next year or so. I already have one potential buddy but more would always be nice :look:
