I washed my hair last Tuesday; shampoo'd with moisturizing shampoo. I Dc'd for 20 mins with heat, rinse then i apply heat protectant ,and tension blow dry on medium heat setting. I added a bit of serum and flexirod overnight. I moisturize every day mostly the ends and flexirod to maintain the waves.

Pretty!! I love the size of your waves. What color did you use?
 
Added my start photo to the first page, but I'll add it back here as well. Fresh roller set and as straight as it'll get. I stay away from heat since I'm double processed. Finally made it back to APL after a set back that I had to cut it to NL in '13.

Don't be discouraged. Sometimes it takes longer for us to see our progress. I'm sure others can see a difference in your hair.

:bighug:
 
I just left Sally's. I got a neat little pony tailer thing. It stretches to accomadate any pony or bun. I also ordered a Hairagami from Amazon today for my buns. I only wear buns at work, but I like for them to look cute :blush:

Your hair is so nice and dense to be double processed! How do you stop or prevent breakage?

I can see a difference. It looks closer to your bra. I have been trying to get to Bsl for over a year. I was almost there then my annual trim took me back to Apl. We will all get there soon. Just believe. Tell yourself everyday that your hair is so long amd thick and it grows so fast. Positive affirmations help a lot :yep:
 
Never posted my starting pics in this thread...

I bought some keracare humecto conditioner. I haven't used this since I started my transition. Interested to see how it works now that I'm 1 year post. I need a moisturizing DC to alternate with my AOGBP so I'm crossing my fingers.
 
PlainJane I hope it works well for your hair. I love it for my natural, tightly coiled hair. When used immediately after Nexxus Emergencee my hair is practically tangle free!
 
Really lost a lot of profess this year dew to much breakage. The bsl hair is now a good 2" away but I ain't worried ill be back there before April2015.
 
I am so ready for Bsl. This summer I want to feel my bsl hair on my back when I wear tanks and halters. I should be grazing my brastrap (without pulling) by March

Yes I love that feeling, in high school I used to wear ponytails all the time and I loved when it hit my back walking down the stairs just swinging lol. That was occasionally though since my stylist was forever "trimming" my hair *side eye* lol
 
I love the difference between March & now, hopefully I get to MBL by Sept, I think I'll be fully bsl in March without pulling as well.
