Thanks ladies ! I was trying to post before pics. I started the week of Jan 20th, 2016. I did end up getting used for their 6 month growth challenge, which was absolutely WONDERFUL! I really was blessed to go in as a first time client and get chosen. My challenge was over end of July... I got married and had a honeymoon and a death in the family and a blood clot in my leg that broke off and went to my lung...then I lost my job... its been a rough two months! THE STRESS! I ended up keeping it in an extra 2 weeks with all the craziness. But both Reneice and Breon were very pleased with my progress. These results were on Saturday... she emailed me lady night and asked if I'd like to come in and get my hair refreshed since it's sooo humid in our area... I jumped at the chance...so I'm going in at 9am in the morning. It's free! I love them all! I'm a customer for life!

Looking at the before and after pictures... FOR ONLY 6 MONTHS... I can't say anything but they are gifted and deserve all the money they ask for. I didn't even maintenance my hair like I was supposed to because of going to the hospital, and overall being stressed from my sister in law dying 6 days before the wedding and losing the job the following day. Imagine if I was able to keep up!

Awwww! :bighug: God blesssssss you !!!!! :rosebud: You have been through so much in such a short period of time.
Your progress is simply amazing! Reniece is one stylist whose picture always wow me! Every single client has a head of hair that looks thicker and healthier after going to her :notworthy:
 
I just started going 10/1. I am looking forward to see what happens in 6 months. My consult was back in July and Shannon pretty much went over everything I learned on LHCF (finger detangling, moisturizing, protective styles). She gave me an oil wash, treatment, blow - dry and talked to me about the state of my hair during the consult.

The soonest Saturday she could get me in was 10/1 so unfortunately I was on my own for a bit but when I went back, she was pleased with how my hair felt and I didn't have a lot of shedding. We did the same routine, oil wash, treatment, blow- dry, then she trimmed all of my dead ends and made my hair even. I was concerned that she would take off too much but it ended up looking good. Then, she braided my hair down because I wear wigs.
Once I figure out how to post pictures I will post them and post my updates. I hope I see great progress 6 months from now. My next appointment is at the end of November.
 
Sorry they are so big- these are coming directly from my facebook. These are my "befores". We took the photos then she trimmed so that my hair was even all around.
So we will see how it goes. I hope I have great progress with the regiment and treatments!

My next appointment is in about two weeks. I took my hair out of the cornrows last night. I then washed and blowed dried my hair. I was expecting it to be short because of how she cut it but my hair looked healthy and even. It even detangled easier. I also think it grew a lot (or just retained the length) so it now looks like it wasn't cut at all. I braided my hair back up and going to leave it like that until my appointment.
I also ordered my shirt to measure my hair length so I can see the retention. Maybe I can shoot for APL by summer...

Thank you. I like the progress.
My hair is back to being a little passed my collarbone when stretched in the back and a little passed my chin in the front, which is where I originally started. I didn't like having to trim (she cut as much as 2 inches off) and lose that length but I realized my hair wasn't healthy at all. Split ends every where and very uneven. So I trusted her since Reniece has such a good reputation and I am happy I did.

I added 2 more pics (below)after today's appointment. I am pleased with my progress thus far.
I will not post any more progress pictures for the next 6 months. I am looking forward to my 1 yr. progress report!


Here is my 5 month progress report. 6th month appointment will be this week:

1st pic: haircut in Aug. 2016
2nd pic: Jan. 2017 (after Shannon's blow dry)
3rd pic: Jan. 2017 ( after taking braids out of hair).
4th pic: Jan. 2017 ( I couldn't resist-- I cheated and lightly flat ironed the portion below my ears to determine progress. I needed a baseline to compare growth when I get whole head flat ironed on 1 year anniversary date!)

I don't wear a wig but I utilize protective style in between monthly visits, so that I can leave my hair alone. I see progress and feel blessed to be a client!

The thickness of your hair :drool:

My hair has truly been a hot mess the last 2 years and I attribute the turnaround to Reneice & company. I tried everything and NOTHING worked. My hair wouldn't even hold A curl. It was really embarrassing. My hair is not as thick as it once was. At this age, not sure that I will be able to regain it all but trust me, I am truly grateful to God to have hair and that I am finally making some progress.
 
Hi ladies. I just moved to North VA and I am dying to get an appointment with Reniece (although it looks like a I have few more years of waiting to go!) I always wanted to try a kinky-curly sew in, but it appears that most, if not all of Reniece's clients get straight/blow out textured hair. Do any of you lovely ladies that go to Reniece know if this is on purpose? I guess what I'm trying to ask is does Reniece prefer straight hair weaves because it's better for length retention? Can she do her method with kinky curly hair or is it not recommended? TIA!
 
For those of you who have been able to go to Reniece's salon, may I ask if you have to wear a weave as part of the process to healthier hair and retention? I ask because when I look at her site, all I see is information about weaves, but nothing about just hair care and styling without a weave. Thank you.

I don't wear a weave. I have also seen clients come in and just get there hair washed, blow dried and styled. Her salon is about healthy hair practices. You are not required to wear a weave as part of the process. I believe that if hair growth is what you are looking for, then they will suggest protective hair styles (briaids, hair pulled up or back, wigs, weaves) but the choice is up to you. I believe you will retain growth but maybe not as much as those that wear wigs. I am seeing growth without wearing a wig but I would probably have more retention if it I wigged it. I have never been pressured by her staff to get a weave, it's left totally up to me!
