Album Update: Relaxed after 15 week stretch!!!

[RabiaElaine]

Hi Ladies,

I haven't updated my pictures in a long while. Anyway I just got a relaxer yesterday after a 15 week stretch. I relaxed with Affirm Fiberguard Mild, I think I'm relaxed 70-75% now. I will know the texture better after I wash my hair myself in a few days.

Anyway my progress since last February when I started my album has been much slower than the rest you ladies, but there's progress none the less so I'm happy for that! What I do realize is that one of the hardest parts of growing hair is getting it past your shoulders, so I will be concentrating on working past this point with protective styling and rarely wearing my hair down.

Today I even wore my hair up in a pin curl style (i will post pictures later..I need to upgrade my fokti account). I never wear my hair up right after my relaxer (I usually like to have it down and swanging ), but I need to reach my goal, which is more important.

Anyway enjoy the pics.

(I also added pics of some braids that I put in for 5 weeks of the stretch, in the braid album)

Awww thanks ladies!!! I only wish my progress was a little faster. But the pictures from last February to now really help me to see that it has grown, not as much as I want but it's coming.

Thanks...my hair actually gives an illusion of thickness, but it's really very thin, unfortunately. That's why I switched to texlax to keep some body and thickness and hopefully maintain some more strength.

Wow, I've never been someone's goal before! Thanks!!! Just keep going, don't give up like I did and you'll get there much faster than I did.

Your hair is coming along nicely by the way!
