Hey Ladies!!
Tonight I'm DC, then clarifying w/ Joico Shampoo and then conditioning w/ As I am conditioner. I have been going back & forth on whether or not I should do the 2step protein treatment, but I'm too scared. I've used it before and it helped w/ my shedding problem. As far as my style, I'm sticking w/ the navy bun aka military bun. I am m&s w/ S-curl mixed with aphogee leave-in and sealing w/ WGHO. I am still loving this oil. It gives my hair this amazing shine. Also I have attached some more pics of my bun.
If anyone has any suggestions on what to do a/b shedding that will really help. Here lately, my hair seems to be shedding. I do have a thyroid disease (Graves) and my doctor just switch my meds to a non-generic; but I dont think that would have anything to do w/ it since its non-generic or maybe I'm wrong? I've tried the tea rinse (only once), but it really didnt help and it was messy. My hair doesnt seem thin (I have really thick hair) but its just shedding alot

I bought this one. First time using the creme so it should be interesting.
Can't wait to see the results. I have always loved your colors that i have seen so far.

Hey everyone and congrats to all those who made apl. I've been mia with this new job. I just installed kinky twists, not sure it will be ready to come out by our next check in. I am determined to make it by December, so I am not really into checking now because I don't want to get discourage if I seem to he far from my goal.

Celies are still hanging in there...and they will until I figure out when I want to dye my hair. I may take them down on Sunday, shampoo,DC, detangle and put in some fat twists until I dye. I head home in about 5 weeks so I'm thinking 2 or 3 weeks out may be a good time to dye. Who knows.

I'm contemplating trimming my hair myself after I relax on Sunday...but then again, I'm afraid that it could go terribly wrong, does anyone have some trimming advice?

Hi Pello,
I know everyone is different however I suffer from thyroid disease and black tea rinses have helped me so much...maybe you should give it another try. Also switching from name brand Synthroid to generic Levothyroxine had an effect on me. We could not seem to get my blood levels where they needed to be and my hair, skin, and nails were a disaster with Synthroid...everything has gradually gotten back to normal since being switched to generic. HTH
Your hair looks good

I'm having med issues too. I asked the dr to change my bp med because of the hair loss I noticed in June. He said it may have just been a coincidence. I said just in case change my meds. So he called in a new prescription which will cost more but Idc. Then Walgreens says the prescription is out of stock...smh. Going in there later today to find out what's going on!
I really want to straighten! But I know the longer I wait, the better chance to me being APL when I do. So I shooting for the 1st wk in September and I can check into all my challenges. Wont make BSL this year but I can be a good APL by end of year!

shortt29, thanks so much, I will def give the black tea another try. How often do you do the black tea rinse?
My doctor switched me from Levothyroine to Synthroid. If I'm still having issues, I am going to ask her to switch me back. W/ Levothyrine, I shedded alot but after a couple of months my hair returned to normal but w/ the Synthroid it's not. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one

Hey ladies,
How are u all? I thought id come by to show u guys my new protective style. I was sick of bunning Every. Single. Day. for the last 5 weeks so I asked my roomie to experiment (GENTLY) on my hair (11 weeks post) for a new style. We found some jumbo braiding hair in our closet n went to work .. I love how it came out, it looks so natural n at least 10 ppl have complemented on how "long" my hair is lol. she put them in on Monday (this pic is from Wednesday) and I plan on keeping my piggytails until Sunday 
this style has a great chance in turning into 1 of my go-to weekly PS's.
