Have you ever looked in the mirror...

... and said to yourself, "Dang... I have the best hair ever!"
Not to be vain or anything but I think I just fell madly in love with my hair. I just did a protein treatment so my new growth curlies were popping ALL over the place (btw, did any other transitioners find that their new growth LOVES protein treatments?) and when I was detangling with leave-in in the mirror, they just looked so gorgeous! Not that it's any better than anyone else's, so don't jump on me - I just never thought I could feel this way about my hair!
Is anyone else feeling this way?
Not like..."Oh, I like my hair" or "I love my hair" but more like...
"I'm in love with my hair... I think I want to have its babies."

:look:.....:lachen:
 
I know what you mean though, I just :love: my new growth waves and curlies...I think they are sooo cute. Sometimes. Not when they are acting a ham.:lol:

How far along into transitioning are you?

Lol. That is hilarious! Mine have been pretty cooperative so far. Haven't had much trouble with my curls. BUT the crown of my head goes hard, though... lol. That section will laugh at a comb... I detangle that section with my hands. I might actually start detangling all over with my hands. I was so infatuated with my hair earlier today that I ended up touching it so much that I detangled my whole head with my hands! It's a problem... lol.
Anyway, I am about 8.5 months in now, and have 8.5 more to go!

Awwww... come on! Join in the love fest!
But I know what you mean... I used to be very envious of people with long thick hair and never thought I could get there because my hair would never get past CBL without breaking but since I have been a member, I have learned that my hair can get longer, and it's longer now than it's ever been. I'm almost grazing APL. I still wish I had thicker hair but at the same time, I am so grateful for what I have now. Like I said, I used to be envious so for me to get to this point is really a big step. Maybe one day you will look at yours and fall in love too!

Your curls in that last pic in your strip are to DIE for.
Mine are like straw curls at the nape and back (my nape is all natural except in the middle), looser perm rods on the sides and front (which are loose because of my ends but also they just look bigger than the ones I have in the back even when I had relaxed ends on those too), and my crown is just... I don't know WHAT it is! Lol. There's a curl pattern there but I can't quite figure it out... More waves than curls and definitely coarser!
Yours look so uniform... just fabulous!

I have my moments. :look::lachen:

That's when we have our amateur ANTM photoshoots in the bathroom mirror. :grin:

Lol! I'm not at the photoshoot point yet because I still have some relaxed ends so my hair would NOT be looking cute in a pic unless it was a close-up texture shot... BUUUUUT... I can't wait until I chop so that I can be on that level. And you have good reason to do your shoots because your hair is absolutely fabulous! I soooo love that curly layer cut. I think I told you that before in another thread... it just looks too cute!

Girl stop.
Unless those pics in your siggy was you 5 years ago and you jacked your head all the way up between then and now (which I know is NOT the case since they're dated 2009 and 2010!), your hair is FAB! One day soon should be now! It's gorgeous!

Thanks! It's not that I don't like it or I don't think it has grown in the past 6 months, it's just hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I won't finish transitioning for another year, and THEN I'll really and truly be in love!
