Thank you so much for sharing. It feels like getting to BSL is taking forever and a day. This thread is really encouraging.

Your hair is gorgeous. Congrats!

 

[LeNghtyDreAms]

Thanks ladies, thats actually multiple colors as I dye my own hair with whatever blonde dye for African American hair I can find. I usually re dye it after 4-6 months.
Ha my regi is super simple! I really dont have one... I co wash every 2-3 days, run some condish and water over my hair and put it in a bun.
I only heat style for New years, Valentines, my September anniversary and my November birthday.
I've gotten it trimmed 2x a year since being totally natural in 08, found a someone who doesn't chop inches of hair just last year though and thats it!

Thanks again ladies, it's been a long journey but its definitely worth it to finally see some progress!
