I've been protective styling with sew-ins since February? I think. The second time I went (ima have to look at my posts here to see when that was), I got a major trim... first time in 10yrs and much needed. My next app is in 2 weeks where I get my current weave taken down. I may opt for mini twists this time instead of weave. But at my last app, my hair looked and felt great. She said (my stylist is shannon) my hair grows slightly faster than average and seemed surprised at the amount of new growth I had. So she recommends that I only leave my weaves in for 6wks.

But yea, I'm still loving the service!

Shannon is so sweet, awesome, and nice!!! We hugged when I left! I had a 30min consult where she went over everything and explained what they do. She felt my hair (mini twists) and concluded that I was at a good starting point.

Yall. I can get my mini twists done by her. I almost cried when she said she do mini twists. I've never had anyone do them for me. I am beyond excited.

I get started with my first appt next month, where she'll do the treatment and she's gonna do mini twists :cry3: and give me a regimen to follow :cry3:

I haven't been to a hairdresser since 11th grade, over 10yrs ago. This is so amazing. I'm actually going to get my hair done :cry3: by someone who actually cares about the hair :cry3:

Still going. I don’t update any more because I am trying to be “surprised” with my hair. Next reveal is in September. I am in a weave now.

Welp September may not be the next reveal.
I am getting a lot of positive responses from the opposite sex being in this weave so not sure when I will wear my own hair. May just keep it braided up so it can continue to retain length.

What length, color, and texture are you rocking?
What length are you at now? I feel like your hair after a length check right now would be weave length?

Same color as my real hair, relaxed weave. The weave is BSL and thick. My real hair is APL and not as thick as the weave.
 
After a whirlwind 28 hours I’m back home and ready to spill about my amazing appointment w/ Breon.

I get to the salon and it’s very clean and inviting. I was about 10 minutes early but Breon was already finished with her last client and ready to start my assessment.

She got right into it and started feeling my hair. I got minorly embarrassed, having a hair legend digging in your hair you get immediate flashbacks of nights without moisturizing. She said my hair wasn’t in too bad shape, but I had a bad case of ssk’s and splits.

In the shampoo bowl we talk texture, I’m 4a with some 3 around my perimeter. She washed with design essentials my smelled really great and my hair had SA-LIP! She put the treatment in my hair and sat me under a dryer. Unfortunately they were sold out of the treatment.

She lightly blow dried and gave me a much needed trim (about an inch) and put my hair in two French braids. we discussed my weave options and decided on a full head with closure.

I also met Shannon and Shamira, everyone had the best personalities, one of those places that you automatically feel at home and at ease

I just got back from getting a full head weave from Breon! I love it!! I was worried it wouldn’t look natural if I didn’t have leave out but she made it look like it was coming out of my head. She never braided my hair too tight, I barely even felt when she was braiding. I’ve never had beautiful work done so fast. Wash/condition/braid/sew-in/styling all in under 3 hours. Sorcery!

All of the girls are so sweet, they tried to help me find the cheapest way to get back to my hotel since I was stayed in Baltimore instead of Rockville. DCA all the way next time!

Beautiful hair lady! Can't wait until you reach your goals! What regimen are you following?

I’m washing every other week and moisturizing/oiling 2x a week.

I’m also taking HSN, liquid biotin, MSM, and collagen. I’m also spinning 3-4x a week. I’m trying to have a full transformation, mind/body/spirit.

Unfortunately Shannon said it would be another year or so before I reach BSL/WL. So I am not flat ironing my hair any time soon.
But my hair is healthy and retaining so I can’t complain. I can make a big donut bun now.

This pic was from about July.

Hair is so healthy and lush plus I love the color as it is natural, has me wondering what your color was like when relaxed provided you ever were.

That is a good question. I think my hair was dark brown/black when I relaxed.
Now that all the chemicals are stripped away, I see it is a brownish color.
I had to get more of a brown color weave to match my hair and it made me nervous at first because I was use to seeing myself with black hair. But Shannon knows what she is doing 1000%.
