Thank you all so so so much. I am overwhelmed by the love and support in this thread.
Thank you to all the people that have been part of my journey.

I am ready for year two.

I trimmed/dusted (by myself) and I am off to a good start for year 2.

Thank you so much.

I copied and pasted my regi from my fotki

**********THIS IS WHAT I CURRENTLY DO**********

*Wash with Shampoo once a week (Nature's gate-Asian pear & Red tea)
*Conditioner wash 1-2 times a week(Suave tropical coconut/Mizani Thermasmooth)
*Always use a leave-in after each wash(Qhemet or Oyin leave-ins)
*Deep Condition at least twice a week(Banana Brulee,,Mizani Thermasmooth, ORS hair mayo or Aubrey organics honey suckle rose)
*Do a hot oil treatment whenever I feel like (oil blend by Naturel, castor and olive oils)
*Use a moisturizer twice a day and seal with oil(Qhemet Burdock root, Qhemet Olive and Amla heavy cream, Qhemet olive and honey hydrating balm and coconut oil or oyin burnt sugar for sealing)
*Every week I try to rollerset my hair , I use a bit of leave-in, moisturizer and Sabino Moisture block. Sometimes I straighten with a hot air brush (My hair is predetangled and I do this in very small sections which makes it easier and safer on my hair).
 
Your hair looks good girl!:yep: It looks so moisturized. Congrats on making it a year. I tried to transition and I just couldn't do it.:wallbash: Keep up the good work; whatever you're doing is definitely working for you.
 
Wow!! Girl I am so proud of you! I remember when you first BC'd and how discouraged you were. But boy what a turn around. You have done a phenomenal job. At this rate you'll be WL in no time! :yep:
 
Aww, I'm so happy for you. I remember your struggles and the last time I asked you about it, you didn't even want to think about it :lol:

Your hair looks great. Congrats on the progress!
 
OMG! your hair took off. I remember you talking about what were you going to do with a TWA and look at that head of hair now..........CONGRATS!! ;)

Thank you so much. The ladies on this board have been kind to me. Everyone who asked me a question or responded in my venting threads has been a blessing and very much part of my journey.

Thank you so much. I can't believe that now I don't even think about relaxing. I used to read about Mizani butter blends pretty much everyday. Somedays I went to a site that sold it and I would be at the check out and the only thing that stopped me from ordering was the Shipping price:lachen:

BTW: That hair of yours is looking good:grin:

naturaltobe said:
great progress. looks like you retained every milimeter too!!
Click to expand...
Thank you. I was determined to retain every milimeter if it killed me. In the whole year I dusted my ends once.

I just did another dusting (well kind of a trim) yesterday to start off year 2.
 
Your hair is lovely!! I particularly like your hair accessories!!!! Where did you get them from?
 
Ok Mandy! I see you! :grin:

How did you do the twists in the front with the 12month comparison blow out? that is really cute. I can see that front with a nice bun.
