Ok so are you transitioning?

Still up in the air Ms. B. I am not relaxing because I am expecting. Although I would LOVE to transition, the maintenance part of it scares me silly. In the upcoming year, i will experiment with hairstyles, and if I feel comfortable maintaining my increasingly natural hair-- I just may transition.:yep:
 
I can not BELIEVE I am sticking to this challenge!!! I never stick with anything. My hair hasn't been straight since I joined back in July. I don't know if there will be much of a difference in the length since I BC'd in August...but I am soooo proud of myself for sticking with it!:yep:
 
I'm still in it. I've only straightened my hair maybe three times. But one time my hair reverted on me so I really had like a straight pouf that stopped at my neck which is shorter than when I started. The other two times I wore my hair in a ponytail and bun the whole time. I wanted to wear it down, but I was really scared that wearing it down would snag my ends. After the last time I've just been wearing weaves, kinky twists, and braids. I'm also shocked that I've survived in this challenge and no one really has a clue as to how long my hair really is. I'm really loving this challenge.
 
I hit a little bump in the road last week when none of my tried and trues seemed to be working. Every product I used seemed to sit on my hair and I could not for the llife of me figure out what was wrong. I don't know why it took me so long to figure it out, but I went out and bought Joico Clarifying Shampoo and all I can say is, Ahhhhhhhhh. I can't remember the last time I clarified, but it was exactly what I needed. I had done a Cassia treatment last weekend and wasn't impressed. My hair didn't look any shinier or feel eny different. But after today, I can definitely see luster and my curls are popping. I don't use a lot of products, but my hair has been in braids for four of the last five months and I love to co-wash and seal with castor or coconut oil. I air dried in braids and I will be back in a twisted bun tomorrow. I was tempted to go back to braids with extensions because my hair wasn't cooperating, but now that I'm over this small hurdle I may keep on bunning until the big reveal.
 
^^^ Girl who you telling. I think I am going to break down and buy me a Maxiglide to celebrate the occasion :)
 
I found a way to help me with this 6 monther....
I blow dryer my hair and used my moms round brush to straighten the roots out some.
And OMG ladies it came out so soft and silky, I loved the results and I am going to go to Sallys and buy me one.
 
Still in twists.. bunned. Is everyone going to reveal on the 15? I was thinking about revealing and straightening Christmas week if that wasn't against the rules.

Awww loca, you can still reveal the health, shine or the cut itself...it's not all about length!! I had a major breakage set back (right down the middle of my head) ...but I'm revealing anyways!!!
 
Can't wait to have my hair blow dried and flat ironed so that I can see my length in all its glory!! Come on hair appointment, come on!!
 
I revealed early since I needed a trim... :look: I didn't even think about the challenge until the day after I had posted. Sorry :ohwell:... It only stayed straight a good 3 days though between work and the rain. Nobody saw it but a few coworkers and my roommate. Not even my fam. I may straighten myself for Xmas.

:spank: SHAME ON YOU!!!! :giggle: I can't see pics from work, DARN IT!!!




TWO MORE WEEKS of hiding our hair ladies. I did a braidout today and yesterday. Just wanted something different than the bun. I'll wash, rollerset, and bun again this week.
 
I wore a braid out for Thanksgiving and then have been wearing my hair in a braid out bun. My NG is like a beast. I am almost 18 or 19 weeks post and it is literally a jungle on my head. I will be doing my touch up on Friday.
 
Glam ur hair looks GREAT! :yep:

I will be revealing a little early...hair appt on the 10th.
Haven't 'seen' it really since May--from there I've been in sewins...no relaxer since May also. (siggy pic from April 2009)

I'm scurred :lol: I hope I get some good results :pray:
