1) Relaxed or Natural?
Right now, I'm relaxed but I'm currently transitioning to natural (YAY!).

2) How long have you been relaxed/natural?
Age 10: First Relaxer
Age 14-19: Forced to go natural when all of my hair broke off due to swim lessons in gym class. I didn't know how important it was to wash out chlorine back then. It took me forever to grow out my damaged and broken hair, but my hair was the longest and healthiest it had ever been.
Age 20: I was asked to be in a hair show and was told that in order to be in it, they had to relax my hair. I should have just walked away. I didn't. I would soon regret it.
Age 22: Went natural again. Hair was thriving again.
Age 24: Fell prey to the creamy crack ... AGAIN. Should have just said no!
Present Day: Going natural ... again ... but I'm STICKING WITH IT THIS TIME EVEN IF IT KILLS ME! :lol:

3) What's the longest your hair has ever been?
Mid-back as a teen when my hair was natural. My hair does best when it's natural.

4) How often do you wash?
Winter: once a week
Summer: 3x a week

5) How often do you relax if you relax.
When I used to relax, I would do so every 3 months or so.

6) How often do you use heated tools like flat irons and curling irons?
I used to use curling irons and flat irons every single day on my relaxed hair. :eek: Now I'm on the no heat bandwagon. My hair is thriving again.

7) What's your favorite oil/moisturizer/butter to keep your hair soft and moisturized?
I like Elasta QP Mango Butter, Redken Anti-Snap Leave-In Treatment and EVOO.

Clarifying: Suave (da cheap stuff)
Moisturing: KeraCare (and I've recently discovered Aveda DR products thanks to this board).

9) What's are your favorite protien conditioners? Moisturizing conditioners?
Protein Conditioner: Don't have one?? Need help with this one!
Moisturizing Conditioner: Keracare Humecto, Aveda DR

10) How do you style your hair (examples blow dry, flat iron, curl, roller set, braid out, wrap ect?)
I used to flat iron and use a curling iron on my relaxed hair daily (ridiculous). Now that I'm transitioning, I wear braid-outs and twist-outs (no heat).

11) If relaxed what's your favorite relaxer?
Not applicable anymore, but when I did, I got my hair relaxed professionally. I've had everything from Affirm to Design Essentials to off brand junk.

12) How often do you trim?
3x a year

13) What services do you get done in a salon? What do you do yourself?
I used to only get relaxers at the salon (I could never get my arms to cooperate to do the back of my own head). Everything else, I do myself.

Don't have one ... yet!

15) How long was your hair when you started?
When I joined back in August 2004, my hair was APL.

16) What's your current length and goal length?
My current length is now BSL. I just got my hair flat ironed and cut by Balisi today. When she straightened my hair, I was surprised to see that it was 1 inch below my bra strap. However, I asked her to cut off 2" of damaged hair, so I'm right above BSL again. My ultimate goal length is APL of unstretched natural hair.
