Hey! I'm a long term transitioner.... right now I'm ALL natural, but I hesitate to claim that honor because of the heat damaged sections in the front of my head 
Some of you may remember my vent after the initial heat damage occurred. You can also take a look at my last update to see where the back used to be with stringy ends.
So the pics below are from the 3-4 days (except the ponytail pic). They range from a flat twist out to my 1st and 2nd use of Kinky-Curly Curling custard.
I had my 2nd "mini chop" on 4/17/2009 (1st mini chop on 2/12/09) and last relaxer was 12/12/2007.
Thanks for even coming in this thread to support and movtivate me
3/20/09- side ponytail with leave in condish
4/23/09- flat twist out with leave in condish and a little IC gel
4/24/09- first attempt at using Kinky-Curly curling custard (KCCC) and Knot Today. My hair had white specs in it after using... I must have used too much. Also note that I had to put straw sized flexirods in the front to coil because of heat damage.
Back:
4/25/09- The next morning, I shampooed out the KCCC from the night before and tried a wash and go... this time I DID NOT use the flexirods on the heat damaged end. I scrunched instead because I had to be somewhere Sat. morning... so this was my first time out of the house officially with all my hair out in it's "natural" state. I've worn the pony plenty, but nothing like this til now.
Sorry for the picture quality... most were taken with my blackberry. I'm about to add more pics of how I've been wearing my hair before I got bold enough to go out looking a hot mess yesterday.
