I'm 4A Nappy, Happy & WaistLength! Pics Inside:2009 Update

[PinkSkates]

Aloha chicas,
I needed approximately 4 inches to reach my WL goal. So I went on a heat ban from 9-1-08 to 1-1-09. I retained 3 1/2 inches of growth. I wore a full sew-in weave for 8 weeks and wore my hair in its natural state for the remainder.
After straightening, I trimmed off 1/4 inch due to raggedy ends.

To my fotki buddies: my hair albums are gone but i created my new hair diary slide show, which chronicles my hair from chin length to present.
It will be posted on my webzine later on today.
Well... my hair journey continues, I'm off to join the "full waist length challenge". If I stay on top of my game, I'll be full WL by end of March.

I swear even though I purchased that fancy Sedu, you making me want to get a couple of pressing combs and a stove for-real!!

You also have me working on my hair from the inside and outside, I am determined to eat right and exercise, I know that's the key to healthy hair for me.
