Hey Y'all!!!! I'm new and I wanna tell my story, with pics!

[missliberia]

So... I have been lurking for 2 years. I JUST paid my $6.50 and I want to introduce myself and tell my story.... with pics! *Edited to add more pics*

My relaxed hair...

My last relaxer was May 2010... Then I began transitioning with Braidouts...

Weaves... I used Halley's Curls Creole Wavy...

I would still straighten sometimes...

Then on October 4, 2011 I did the big chop myself...

I started experimenting with curly fro's...

Side puffs...

Twistouts...

My first natural hair braidout... November 2011...

Braidouts now...

Tuck and roll styles...

Puffs...

puffs are my faves!

Straightened to do trims... this was in February 2012

Braidout puff in May 2012

Buns...

And here is where I am now, straightened. I'm not sure if I'm APL but I hope to be by years end...

Thanks for looking! And I look forward to being able to contribute to this community now. Muah!

Hey! I don't mind at all. I didn't change my products until I big chopped. I have always used sulfate shampoos and conditioners with cones. I'm cheap and sometimes natural is too expensive. So I used Garnier intense cleanse Shampoo cuz I have dandruff and head and shoulders long term relationship conditioner. I greased my scalp with bronner bros ultra lite super Gro and just hid it in weaves for the most part. When I would take weaves out it was so hard to detangle but I did it with a wide tooth comb. Good luck on your journey!

Blending was easy, I just bantu knotted the front and it matched. What I hated was how tangled the hair would get. But it is good quality hair. I found out about it by lurking in here.

I'd like to try the Creole Wavy, but tangling is a no-mo...
