Hello Ladies!
I hope everyone's had a great summer! I've been away for a while and very busy, but I wanted to stop by and give a little update on the hair front! My 2 year anniversary was July 15th, and I'm happy to say that my hair is growing out nicely, and I've finally gotten used to wearing it down and not being self conscious, which is a huge milestone for me! I also resisted the urge for summer highlights, b/c I just want to get used to my hair the way it is before I start experimenting. But next summer it's gonna be on! And as far as products, I've learned that less is more, like most naturals do after a year or so. I still CO wash w/ Pantene every day, and if I don't do a shake and go (like in the pics) then it's back in my phony pony. I still use Mango Butter and Ampro Clear Ice to slick it back, and I use this new product by Lustrasilk called Extreme Curling Gel (purple bottle, WalMart) for my shake and goes. Anyway, the album is called "Year 2 Update" so feel free to take a peek!
P.S. For those new naturals and anyone transitioning, the beginning is always the hardest, but hand in there, you really will fall in love with your hair!
