I'm so excited...updates!

I've been transitiong for 20+ months now and it may have taken long, I may have gotton a little too obsessed and i may need a trim lol but I finally feel like my hair is actually close to being considered long!! well by my standard

Today I flatironed my hair which I do about 4 times a year and i'm also happy to have finally mastered some sort of technique

I just wanted to share my progress with everyone because it probably wouldn't have been possible without this board, the amazing people and constant support.

Thank you
I wash once a week with giovanni smooth as silk shampoo. I use protein almost every week in the form of aphogee 2 minute, then i dc with tresemme breakage control and use this to detangle with my denman because it has loads of slip.
I then follow up with a quick moisture boost dc using honey, olive oil, herbs and acv and i seal with evoo or hemp seed oil.

oh and i have about 2 of relaxed ends left, it took me a long time to get a handle on breakage :s

Thank you guys soo much, i'm really glad you think my progress is good. I've gotton so down obsessing over length in the past it has been like watching grass grow at times but I think i was just uncertain thinking that maybe i was the one person who's hair really doesn't grow anyways enough with the life story lol

I transition through just stretching my hair after every wash/co/wash via twists, flat twist, 2 pig tails or a braided pony using flax seed gel to lay my flyaways. I have about 2 inches left not many survived.
