BC Results

I BIG chopped Sat., June 18 at exactly six weeks post. Since joining LHCF I had toyed with the idea of going natural off and on. My seven year-old (in August) daughter has beautiful hair that reaches her butt when stretched, twisted, straightened, etc. I wanted that too! I don't remember my natural hair and know for sure I had a relaxer in first grade.

My supportive husband actually did the chop for me. I have no remorse and have received lots of compliments. My hair had grown to about 1/2 in but I had my husband cut it down again. Since I was only six weeks post, I wasn't sure if some of the straight hairs were natural or not. It's happy, healthy growing from here!

Oh yeah. I've been daily cowashing as I don't know how to revive the "curls."

I've used Suave Naturals Strawberries, Herbal Essence Hello Hydration, Joico Moisture, and Herbal Essence none of your frizziness, and VO5 moisture milks passion fruit smoothie for co-washes.

For leave ins I've tried some of the above, S-Curl, and Aussie hair insurance.

LOVING Shea Moisture Smoothie. Smells delish!

The items in red are recent purchases bought specifically for this new natural. All else I've used on at least one of the kids' head.

Pictures of relaxed hair were taken this past May.
